You need the stock recovery
Most of the ROMs probably already have more of that crap removed then their fancy update. So by using their update you are probably installing more than you are removing. Remember the guys DEV spent weeks removing that garbage? No ? Doesn't ring a bell? ok then. Carry on..
Oh and Virus will include the update in his ROM anyway..

So I just ditched my EVO the other day and picked up this bad boy
I have the latest everything prl profile...
I believe I have the latest software from moto ....it ends with MR1
Correct me if Im wrong
Problem. Is when I make or receive phone calls I get no audio what so ever....only fix I have found is rebooting the phone
I have read a little round here. Sounds like im not the only one....I also have another photon as well. From a different store...my girl and I both have one.....hers does the same thing
Sprint told me this was a known issue and the problem is with Motorola software and are waiting for a update
I read somewhere bout a oem software upgrade that u could manually dl and install ...and further read that they already started implementing in a OTA ....my phone says its up to date...am I tight. Do I have the newest software? ??
If I do I have the newest software ....well the problem still happens....a few times a day....super frustrating
Let me know

Thank you, drive thru please.

Great you can flash roms. You do realize you are using 2.3.3 or 2.3.4 which ever you flashed last. Please tell me you don't think you are using both roms at the same time.
Hahaha yeah I know I'm not using them at the same time, I was on a 2.3.4 rom then I flashed a 2.3.3 rom, I didn't think u could go back and forth ,just one or the other.

Yeah i never knew you could do that cause I took the newest ota and I have hboot 1.50 and unlocked my phone through HTC
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
Yeah some great Dev's here, cant wait to try out the 2.3.4 kernel when someone completes one!
No kidding seems like every week something new comes out
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
Were you s-off before you took the ota?? You may be able to flash a 2.3.3 rom, but you won't be able to flash the kernel so the rom may not fully work. Most people that try find out wifi won't work along with other problems. The hboot 1.5 won't let you write to certain system partitions and the kernel is one of those.
Yeah I was s-off b4 I took the OTA, then I did the HTC unlock method when it finished it didn't reboot so I took the battery out and went into recovery and it said unlocked in the pink banner and s-off lol seems like I ghetto rooted my phone. Never had any problems flashing anything yet
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
That's why your able to flash older roms, you were already s-off. All others that started out with hboot 1.5 and used HTC's unlocker can't flash 2.3.3 roms and have everything work right because they can't install a 2.3.3 kernel. Since you were already s-off you must still have write capability to those locked partitions.
Well that makes sense thanks cruise for your info
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
Have you been able to flash a 2.3.5 ROM. I see that some newer ROMs are being built on that?
Yeah I can flash 2.3.5 roms it will be sweet when they get sound working

my girlfriend's phone just told her that there is an update available she has the latest software and hboot 1.5. The update is 9.3 mb. Does anyone know what this is? I downloaded it on her 3D, she is not unlocked or rooted. I rooted my 3D via 1.5 S-on HTC method. Is there a way to take it apart and analyze it. Heard rumors of random ota that revert hboot.

She still on 2.08 ? Why not update to 2.17 ? Then take root? The latest ota is 2.17 which updates a bit of stuff and removes the CIQ thingy....
Is there anything possibly in this that will help get s off? It is update. Maybe some clues. Can I upload the file via the XDA app?

I doubt it the guy that said he had a update of the such wasn't true...
His phone was a previously owned device that had S-off already the store sold him one that was returned in that 14day period...
So it was already rooted prior to him buying it.. With S-off lets you do some more playin around... The person that owned it before him had rooted it with the REV method on root... So that was how he been boucing back and forth on the hboot thing...

From what I read newer radios offer better reception all the other stuff. I prefer to stay on the latest updates that come out. Really can't break a radio down in difference. Newer generally better .

From what i heard , you dont need to relock or unroot then re-unlock, then re-root. You can just flash stock recovery and take the update, if bootloader gets locked then unlock it again.
I might be wrong but thats what i have heard.....i mean read.

My evo 3d is 3.0 with h-boot 1.5 with S-OFF but wont update to 4.0. Goes to install screen for 2 seconds then reboots back to 3.0. What can or do I need to do to get the 4.0?
Just wait for the rooted version. Check out the cdma development forum (if ur on sprint) it will be up soon.
Sent from my PG86100 using xda app-developers app
Jesus people this is rooting 101. If you are rooted, do NOT take an OTA update. Wait until a dev releases a stock rooted rom zip file, shouldn't be more than 24 hours. Flash that like any other rom. Not that hard.
Hey thanks for the info. I tried the ota again and it worked this time. Only thing that sucks so far is all of my apps are gone.

I deferred the update until 2/25 the latest it would allow me to put it off. I eventually want to root and use a custom Rom I am coming from the Motorola droid x2 and CM7 and know nothing about HTC phones. Should I let the update go through or is there something I should do to stop it?

If you haven't unlocked your bootloader and you let it go through then you will not be able to root your device for the time being.

Do not allow the OTA to go thru. Root your phone and install the Mod by Justin (nitsuj) to get rid of the ota notification. If you want to root and not change your stock DNA it is possible. Then you can flash the custom rom of your choice later. My advice is to read up on all roms and kernels. How-to's before you root and make your decision on the best route to go. If you need help look for a RD/RC (Recognized Dev/Contributor) and some one will be happy to assist you. Or you can always post openly in the Q&A sections.
