I was checking for a software update today on my Thunderbolt. Instead of coming back with "No update found" when I initiate the check, the "checking for new software" window just disappears without telling me if new software is there or not. Anyone else seeing this?

I just tried it on my wife's phone and it came back with the "No Updates Found" screen.
I noticed that this morning as well. I have checked it multiple times since and it's still doing it. Yesterday I was getting the "no new update" screen, todays the "checking for update" screen just disappears and nothing happens.
Weird.
Yea an OTA push could be incoming. Yesterday, it was saying no new software available. Today when I check, the windows closes and disappears without any notice.
Good to know my phone is not the only one acting wierd. I'm trying not to get too excited over an incoming OTA update.
Ditto for me as well

my thunderbolt (unrooted MR2) is doing the same thing as well. When i checked for updates last week, it did not do this.
Question: will an OTA update remove root with new firmware or will it just update the OS?
sent from my rooted Thunderbolt using XDA app
i'm not rooted, but it is my understanding that you should not accept updates if you are rooted. Perhaps someone else can comment on this to verify.
Correct, dont accept.

OK, so installed the initial OTA, and my software version is 1.13.651.7. However, anytime I go into HTC Watch to try and watch The Green Hornet, I get a "Update needed" message that kicks me to the screen to check for software updates. I click check now, and get the "no updates available..." message. Am I missing an OTA that my phone just can't seem to find, or is HTC Watch just broken?
Anyway, can someone who has taken all the OTAs check their software version number and let me know if it's different than mine?
Thanks.
i have the same software version and htc watch widget works for me.maybe try rebooting your phone.
Tried that, over and over. Just doesn't want to work, I guess. Maybe I'll just take the phone in and get it replaced...

Youtube and Spiderman work fine. The only issue I'm having is with Watch constantly asking me to update, and there not being an update available.

AT&T will put out a update announcement with change logs. Since there isn't any official announcement, we don't know what it is until someone applied it. And if you're rooted and made some changes, I'd be very careful about accepting any OTA updates. First OTA update for Captivate bricked a lot of rooted phones (and some stock, non-rooted phone as well).
I can confirm with the OP that yes indeed this morning I hit the Check for software updates and it gave me that an update is available but servers are busy now try again.
Weird. No update available on my end. Yet.

I just checked the software update and it gave the message along the following lines
"Communication Failed:
There is an update available for your phone but the software servers are busy. The phone will try to contact the server again"
if you try again it says "Current software is up to date. You may check again in 23hrs 59mins"
I wonder if this is a small update that fixes the password lockscreen issue?

Probably is the fix for lock screen bug. The update does not always show up for all phones. It is rolling out in batches. You can try cleanup the cache data for the update app and try again. At least, that's how we did it in the past with Captivate.

might have bricked some stock phones but never installed on my captivate after rooting it. It would get to 50% and fail. That is why I refuse to do ota updates, safer either Odin or CWM or Kies but ota I dont ever trust lol

From what I've seen so far, they are rolling out the software update only in test markets: Salt Lake City, UT and Austin, TX. You may not be able to get the OTA until it is in wide release.
What's interesting is there is a mention today that they pulled the ISIS mention from the update. At least the version remained the same in the two press releases (2.17.605.2 710RD)

Back story:
I was able to get in before they removed unlocking so I'm actually running Hasoon2000's QX senseless rom and have TWRP installed.
I'm sitting here at work and heard my phone make a noise but wasn't paying attention. Then 10 minutes later it's in the process of rebooting itself. It tossed itself into recovery and looking at the log it tried and failed to install the ota update. I'm a little concerned that it just up and tried to install on it's own without asking (or if it did it had a timer). But either way since i'm not running stock it failed.
I'm in Idaho which no one gives a crap about, so i'd say it's global now!

Well like i said i heard it make a noise, but it was the sound i have set for calendar reminders so i ignored it. I'm assuming that was a prompt, and it probably waited 10 minutes for a response before going for default behavior. I think the most worrying part is default behavior in this case is to auto install.
But since I'm running a custom rom it failed so no harm done... to me at least!!!!

I happened to notice mine was downloading. After it downloaded there was a pop-up warning me it was about to update. There was a 3 minute countdown and a dialog to proceed immediately or defer. I selected defer and it let me set the date and time. Set it for next week so I could see how this potential new root exploit works out.

Yep killing HTCDM did the trick, my phone is no longer trying to update. I also confirmed from some other posts that HTCDM is the process that checks for updates. So kill it or freeze it if the defer option isn't working (which it doesn't seem to work for anyone) or you're running a custom rom.

So this morning the Easter bunny left me a present... My AT&T LGOG says software update available. Does anyone know if the bunny dropped off Jellybeans or just another egg?
I was trying to get a screenshot of the useless message, but the update tried to install and the phone rebooted. Then the firmware update screen reported a failure. After reboot my phone still works on ICS. I'm going to take a backup now and be safe as long as the update doesn't update recovery/bootloader...
Turns out my screenshot worked after all.

I'm on stock & rooted. Not unlocked.
Update notification went off this morning; read some of this thread; told it to let me know again in 8hrs.
Just went off again, I said ok, whatever, told it to update. It rebooted, & now it's just sitting there at the white, "rethink possible" screen.
Key combo reboot actually got it into the "software update" screen, but that then error'd at 1% complete. Error was something like, "01X03fed." It disappeared too quickly while I was typing this. Rebooted again, fully this time, and a, "Installation interrupted" warning is showing.
Hopefully the update notification will be gone, too...

I'm having the same experience
I am also having this issue. Downloaded the update (took forever), installed the update while connected to power, rebooted and Voila!.....nothing. I went back into about phone and nothing changed. Even worse, now it says my software is up to date. What a let down as I've been waiting for this for awhile
I just checked and updated downloaded the 567 mb or whatever, and mine says 4.3 no problems at all. I checked for update under about menu and said no updates available, then checked under the att update and it said one was ready for d/l, not sure which u guys did it under.
The same thing happened for me yesterday. I did a software check from ATT on my phone and it said I had an update that was around 246Mb I think, downloaded it at the speed of molasses, installed it and nothing updated. I ended up having to jump my phone's date ahead 2 days and check for an update before it said I had one at 564Mb to download and install. After that I was at 4.3.

Little update: I did a factory reset then tried updating again, and that time I got the full 500+ meg download and am now running 4.3. So if you're stuck doing the OTA and it says you're up to date with 4.1.2, maybe do a factory reset and try again.
So, I think what's happening here is that there are a total of 3 updates needed. The first is only like 20 MB, the second is the 246 MB one that others have mentioned and then the final update is the 565 MB update that actually brings you up to 4.3. It seems that either AT&T or HTC has set a requirement that several days have to pass after installing one update, before it will allow the next one to install. So, I was initially told there was an update for my yesterday. I chose to update and it downloaded a 20 MB update that installed. Then when I checked the version and saw that it hadn't changed, I checked to see if there was another. After reading Shinryuu's comment, I manually changed the date on my phone 2 days forward and was then able to download the 246 MB update. I then checked again and the version was still 4.1.2. I then checked for another update and nothing. Then I manually changed the date on my phone forward another couple days and now I am downloading the 565.7 MB final update.
Yea correct that 246mb update didn't do much, but mine would say it was up to date, jump the time a day on my phone and I tried it again and said it was up to date BUTTT after I hit ok the download thing poped up and started downloading the 560 mb one.. kinda odd but it's 4.3
So can't really complain
