The main reason I wanted to take the OTA update is so I could test out the green hornet. This was not worth possibly giving up a future chance of root, so I played around a little bit and got the movie to work without telling me there was an update.
Open Watch > Hit the button on the bottom left to bring up the menu before it has a chance to tell you there is an update.
voila, the green hornet is available.
Nice....gotta give this a try.

The movie itself isn't really worth watching, but it is a nice demonstration of 3D on a phone.
Thanks, I wasn't ready to update yet either.

You could watch Hornet without the OTA update. It started working on Thursday morning. The problem was when you opened it, it was trying to get the DRM rights from the HTC server, but it wasn't up yet.
I'm guessing this patch just put the DRM file on the sd card to curve the traffic to the server.
mine started working in 3d after a reboot.
btw I'm playing it from my cl6 16gb card that I copied everything to

No you can't. When opening htc watch or the green hornet from the apps menu a pop up comes up saying you need to accept the ota because it contains an update to htc watch.
i got my 3D on the 22nd and i was able to watch the movie on the 23rd and i havent done the update... stock all the way
did nothing special and i can watch it with no problems now

I read on here last night somewhere of a work around to play the 3D Green Hornet without having to accept the OTA update. Is this still possible because I wanted to see what the 3D looks like.

Why not just accept the update? Who's to tell you'll be able to root anyways anytime soon.....i still have hope HTC is unlocking it with ota so why the hell not.

I'll start with the obvious first. In the future, please search first as you even admitted to seeing it before.
As for how, Place the Watch widget on the home screen and use that.

True but if they do get root before HTC decides to give it to us, I don't want to be one of the sorry souls who updated and will have to wait on HTC. Not worth it in my opinion, especially just for the Green Hornet.

Yes, I took both of them and I'm using wifi tether right now with temp root via free3vo right now. So taking the OTA didn't effect the ability to use the temp root. If you want to watch green hornet you have to take the OTA.

Try calling sprint seeing if you can get it solved by them. Maybe they'll credit your account or something.
Movie sucks bad your not missing out in anything , the watch app is floating around here if you dont wanna take the ota
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
Sounds like this is a little late since you took the ota to watch the green hornet. The ota is still NOT recommended by the devs cuz HTC could've patched a hole they are hoping to find for perm root. Guess it all depends on your priorities. xHausx says never take ota's so I don't.

Within the next couple days we should get an update, primarily for the green tint a lot of us have ffrom the camera.
If you don't get it within a few days I'd check out the HTC site for it.

I know it might be too late for this OTA, but I wonder if it closes the exploit to obtain temp root.
Just wondering How and where did you happen to get this info from?
Yeah where's your source.
I still wont touch any updates, im not loosing any chances for full root and unlocked. Ill deal with it, im sure it'll be baked into a custom ROM when theyr'e available.

I have an evo 3d, but i don't have netflix on it.
However, and this is late, i know, but just sharing, netflix was working on the Wii for me all through the "outage," but it was -not- working on the iPad during that time.
Guess they had to take the system down to get all the price changes in place :/
Just to let you know guys I got a 3% credit (I know is not a lot just saying ) of my membership for the problems the happened
