I woke up this morning, checked for some updates on my Flyer and actually got one! My battery is too low to apply the update, but just wondered if anyone else has gotten anything? I'll update this post once I actually can apply the update to my Flyer.
Update: ok so apparently this was an update to Software version 2.27.1540.31
Update (11/15/2011):
There's an article on GoodandEvo about the Flyer update:
Article Here
The details so far are:
upgrade from Android Gingerbread 2.3.3 to 2.3.4.
Lockscreen seems snappier and more responsive
Lockscreen icons appear sharper
Unlock animations are smoother
Tablet in general is more responsive and faster (maybe a kernel version change?)
HTC Sense version was updated from 2.1 to 1.0
Settings >> Tablet Identity. From earlier model# HTC FLYER P512 has now changed to HTC_FLYER_P512_NA
Language content of the ROM changed from "English" to "American"

Here are some screenshots. I haven't noticed any significant changes.
Same here. May be a security update but 54mb's is pretty big.

I should've checked if the kernel version changed as well. Feels snappier.
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using Tapatalk
well I noticed that the latest facebook update finally works with the new update. That's kinda nice.
I noticed my lock screen icons look sharper.
I just installed the update. I honestly haven't noticed anything different so far. When the update finished and I was taken to the lockscreen, I noticed that the front camera led was on but only for a ssecond. Maybe that's normal, but I just thought I would point it out...
Mine flashes the LED light for a second when Skype boots up.
I noticed when the update was running that the pen icon changed from green to red, and then back to green. I had no idea that it could change colors.
I was on 2.3.3 before the update, and now I'm on 2.3.4.
Maybe they are trying to get all of the Flyers on the same version for the seemingly immenent HC update?
I just picked up my Flyer a week and a half ago, and it wouldn't update to 2.3.4 through the regular software updates check.

With s-off + revolutionary, dl the update, before rebooting find update.zip and move to external sd, reboot to recovery and apply update from zip, correct?

The ruu is available for this I believe. If you run the exe it will flash the system and all but will not over write the hboot, unless you want it to and that is another process.
You can find the ruu in the stock firmware sticky in development

Yes, as well as clockwork recovery. You would have to fastboot flash the recovery image then in recovery flash su zip. You could titanium backup your user apps and restore there after

Hi All,
I still haven't seen the OTA update notice. If I go in manually to "check new" it says its searching for a couple seconds then just closes. Then when I check the status, all I see is:

Description:
I have only ever temp rooted. I haven't unlocked the bootloader, and I have only removed bloat using CleanTool 2.1.1
I have tried re-enabling all the bloat, rebooted to lose temp root, and removed superuser. I verified that I can't su in a terminal anymore, so root is definitely gone. As i said above, I have added all the bloat back as there are no slightly greyed out applications under "manage applications".
I have now just tried a full factory reset, wiping internal, and SD memory and still nothing.
I was wondering if anyone else has encountered this issue, or have any other suggestions?
My phone is completely stock and I haven't seen the OTA. I have not done the "check for update" thing as I keep hearing reports that the update breaks more than it fixes.

You don't need to do that Mainver stuff unless you already have a problem flashing updates via the PH98IMG.zip method.
if you have recovery, just download cons ota rom and flash it.

By the way, the new RUU is up on vigor collection that is the new OTA one, so you can now flash that if you run into trouble later on once your Mainver is updated. Yes, Con's stock rooted rom will give you the new radios and fixes.

Whether you do RUU or con's ROM you still have to relock and then unlock the phone. Well you don't have to unlock it again unless you want root and custom ROM.
Here's a post I just made for someone else in case it helps:
feralicious said:
You can relock and then run the RUU to get you there and then accept the OTA and it should work. Then just unlock again and flash Amon Ra, and then either run stock or restore a nand or flash a new ROM. If you go with an older ROM without the new kernel and you want to use the new kernel you might need to update that. You can do that by following this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1467793
ATERNATIVE METHOD:
You can also use con247's Stock OTA ROM instead of running the RUU.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=21880389
Here are the steps to take to accomplish that:
1) use Amon Ra to flash con's vigorStock OTA ROM. It will do its thing then reboot to hboot. I think it then asks you if you want to update. Don't do it yet.
2) At this point you want to relock. So go into fastboot on the phone. Using adb/fastboot type the following at the cmd prompt:
fastboot oem lock
3) Reboot phone and let it flash the PHzip file. It should reboot completely when it's finished.
4) delete the PHzip file using a file explorer app like ES File Explorer or Root Explorer.
5) get the phone back into fastboot. Unlock again using adb/fastboot. I don't remember the exact command but you can find that in the guide for unlocking.
6) reinstall su using Amon Ra.
Now you should be stock OTA rooted with the new goodies.
Check in Settings > About phone > Software info > More to see that you got all the new stuff.

Well I called tech support last night and they are sending me a "certified like new" refurb. I am kindof nervous that the new phone might have any number of the problems in the post created by jdmba. It seems that the update should have gone to everybody by now and since my phone would just close the "check new" window without reporting if there was or wasn't an update they instantly said they would send me a new phone to resolve the problem with no charge. So for anyone else that hasn't gotten the update that wants it you might want to call verizon. When it gets in on friday I will check all the known issues to see if the new one has a worse problem and if i just want to unlock the old phones bootloader to manually install the updates that I want in the future.
i know there are many tpics similar but i cant find a straight answer or working link..
basically i flashed a rom and this rom ws working fine until it started to reboot everytime i chargd the phone then it would boot loop for like 30min and finaly go in to the rom.. ive tried to access the recovery to switch roms but it just bootloops.. onlything i can go is to bootloader.. i was looking for a stock rooted
P0g5?? file to flash in bootloader but all i can find is mr2 and its in multiupload which is not working for me.. can anyone please give me a working link or answer... and the last option i would hate to do is completely restore to stock and root allover again.. i want to restore to stock rooted/s-off.. not stock rooted/s-on.. please help anyone....
Can u download a new recovery, rename, then flash in hboot possibly?

My friend's phone tried to pull an OTA while he had CWM recovery installed, and it started boot looping. Had to download the stock recovery, name is PG05IMG.zip in the root of the SDCard, and force the phone to boot to the bootloader and install it. Once it did, the phone started up, rebooted itself, and installed the OTA fine. Sounds like yours may be trying to do something similar?
If so rooted phones need caches cleared for the ota to work.
Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk 2
From my understanding, Rooted can still take OTA, but you have to have stock recovery to do it (as I witnessed earlier). You will lose root, and will have to re-flash recovery to TWRP, CWMR, or whatever your normal choice is, and then re-apply the su.zip, but otherwise easy as pie.

Hello, first of all I would like to thank everyone who has posted in this thread to try and help out. I just started having a very similar problem- I'm rooted and running stock, but apparently my phone accepted an OTA and I'm stuck in a bootloop as well.
I got into CWM recovery and downloaded the stock recovery PG05IMG.zip, but it won't install. It just aborts every time I try to install it. I'm a noob at this stuff and not very good at dealing with these sorts of things and I've been having a panic attack for the past hour, so if anyone could help me as soon as possible I would really appreciate it.
I'm really scared of making things worse than they already are. I just want a working phone.

The zip won't work in CWM because it's not designed for use with CWM. It's designed for use in Fastboot. Should be on the root of your sd card. From off, if I'm correct (like this with other HTC devices), hold volume down and power to boot into fastboot. This will allow it to flash the stock recovery.

Howdy,
Over the past week or so VZW has been trying to do an OTA to my bolt.
I'm rooted with a stock ROM, because I mostly focus on themes for stock ROMS (Until I get a better handle on it) I'm not as good with flashing, but I understand it & can certainly follow directions.
I have CWM/ROM Manager installed, but my question is how can I get VZW to stop trying to send the OTA? I'll flash a ROM from the list under the Development section if this is the issue, but I'm a bit hazzy on which one since only a few seem to have been updated in the past few weeks.
My current setup is below, but I'm more than willing to update to something else:
Android 2.3.4
HTC Sense 2.1
Software 2.11.605.9
If it is as simple as making a back-up, downloading one of the ROM's on the Development page, putting it on the SD card, wiping the data, flash & enjoy then I'm good with that, but I'm just not real familiar with things like upgrading to a new sense from an older one & if that is ok.
Thanks
You can either flash a ROM, or flash this through recovery.
(Put the zip on the sdcard, In ROM Manager, select reboot recovery, in recovery select install zip from sd, choose zip from sd, and select OTABlock.zip. Once it flashes hit back and select reboot system now.)
I tried this and im not having any luck. Phone powered on a few min later powers off and tries to update, leaving me with a android guy and yellow triangle with an exclamation point. Tried flashing .19 again but no luck.

So I was trying to root/rom flash my wife's X+ to the Viper rom. I unlocked the bootloader from HTC, downloaded the all-in-one app, but it only had CWM on it, so I flashed CWM, pushed SU and installed SU with CWM, everything was fine. \
Loaded Viper rom on to internal memory, rebooted into CWM, installed Viper rom with full wipe. Phone rebooted, got Viper start up screen, booted to Viper lock screen, but when I unlock it, it shows a white screen with HTC on it, and wont let me get into anything. If I hold the home button, it says set up stopped responding, wait or close. I then reboot and all I get is a black screen with the battery, wrong time, and no signal at the top and then it resets it's self after about 2-3 mins. I cant get into the memory card or debugging before it reboots. What can I do to get the phone back functioning?
1. What method did you use to try to root? see above
2. Do have twrp or cwm installed? If so can you boot to recovery? CWM, yes
3. Can you boot to bootloader? Yes
4. What software version is phone on? 4.1.1
4. Does you pc recognize the phone when plugged in?
5. Does the phone boot at all? Yes
6. Can still get to fastboot? Yes
Do you flash boot.img?

I assume you wiped data if you got the setup screen?
As @garmig said, if you updated the firmware and are on the latest HBOOT, you won't be able to flash ViperXL+ until I update it to the latest build. Did you take the OTA update?

yes, i wipped all data, cache, etc.
if that was the update that came out about a week or so ago, then yes i remember her saying something about an update from ATT.. How can I get another rom on there to flash if i cant get into ADB and debugging mode? ive tried the side load in CWM but i cant get it to connect, and the phone just sits there waiting.
I've always flashed galaxys and such, so im use to being able to remove the memory card and put what ever i needed on with a card reader. I just got my HTC One and now she wanted her OneX+ flashed for more options. Guess I didnt read close enough about the update.. and of course she is mad because she doesnt have a working phone at the moment, lol, GO ME!!!

You can use the RUU from here keeping in mind that it will wipe your phones internal memory COMPLETELY!
or you could flash this rooted and deodexed version from here
Both are the new build 1.19.502.1

First thing's first, what hboot version are you on? you can see that in the booloader screen. Mine is 1.32.0000 which is the previous version.
Anyways, ADB works in TWRP. I'm running 2.4.4.0 and I noticed it can take up to 30 seconds for it to start. You may want to start with that version: http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/evitareul
Once in TWRP, you can either use "adb push" or "adb sideload":
ADB Push:
Run "adb devices" until your serial # shows up
run "adb push c:\somefolder\rom.zip /sdcard/" to push the rom zip to your phone's sdcard. It can take up to 10 mins to transfer it this way. You can use one of these: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2235248
ADB Sideload:
While in TWRP, select Advanced then ADB Sideload
Type "adb sideload c:\somefolder\rom.zip"
Once flashed, reboot to bootloader and flash the boot.img then reboot your phone.

so the first one i see is an .exe, so does that mean that is all i would need to wipe it? and the second one, how would i flash it, using which utility?

Yes, the first is an .exe and can be run from Windows. However, you may need to flash stock recovery( which can be found here ) first.
The second file can be flashed like any other rom as well as the boot.img

you have no idea..... lol kinda glad im at work so i dont have to hear about it, but kinda wish i was home so i could fix it faster, lol
i should be home in about 3 or 4 hours though, and i will try a few things and let you guys know the status. I appreciate all the help so far, hope i can get it back up and running asap!
before going back to stock, i would flash a different rom mate. latest viper as a known issue where it leaves you stuck at that very point I'm sure while its stuck on the htc screen you should be able to connect it to your pc and drag a new rom across, if not flash TWRP 2.4.4.0 and "sideload" or "push" your rom. Trust me theres no need to go back to stock.

If you install the international 1.0.7 from a full wipe you get stuck at that very point.
I'll follow up with m0n then see if he knows anything about it.
However, I'm pretty sure we're talking about the AT&T variant of the HOX+

The global update for the Rezound is failing installation for me.
The update has been downloaded seven times OTA and has failed installation every time on my phone.
My phone's current version is:
Android version: 4.0.3
HTC Sense version: 3.6
Software number: 3.14.605.13 710RD
Baseband version: 1.22.10.042lr, 1.22.10.0424r
The downloaded OTA version: ADR6425LVW_4.05.605.14-3.14.605.13
It successfully downloads the file, reboots into "Android system recovery", and displays the following error...
RA Revamped...
Build : RA-VIGOR-v3.16-getitnowmarketing
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Installing update...
wrong taskid 221384E:Error in /cache/fumo/OTAPkg.zip
(Status 1)
Installation aborted.
The phone's bootloader is relocked and "S-OFF".
I've also deleted the OTAPkg.zip file from /cache/fumo, and the "fumo" directory itself, and re-downloaded the OTAPkg.zip file but it still failed installation.
The OTAPkg.zip file is 217,141,266 bytes in size.
The resetting of my phone and getting it hung in the Android System Recovery every few hours is getting annoying.
Anybody have any ideas on how to get this fixed and the Global update successfully installed?
Thanks,
Dan
It is probably because you have a custom recovery.

Yeah you gotta flash the rezounds stock recovery before you can take OTA

To get the effects of the latest zip without the stock flash this. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/12405441/new.global.firm.PH98IMG.zip
Make sure you are s-off. You will loose fast boot till we can get an engineering one.

Thanks for the info. I had forgotten that I had previously flashed the amon-ra recovery. As suggested, I flashed the rezound stock recovery and the darn OTA update still wouldn't flash. The phone gave me a similar error message as before. I then flashed the entire 3.14.605.12 OTA release just to get a known stable release. The phone boots and reports that an OTA is available (to go from 3.14.605.12 to 3.14.605.13), but then times out while trying to download the firmware and gives the following error: "SERVICE UNAVAILABLE Check for Software Update under Settings when service is available". The Status reports Download Failed, Code 503. It's late, I'm giving up for the night.

I posted instructions for how to flash firmware.zip while s-on in the other global thread
You will need firmware.zip (linked to in that thread), a nandroid backup, your HTC unlock code, and possibly a coy of the stock HTC recovery.

Brenuga, thanks for the instructions. If I'm S-on, locked and running stock recovery and the global leak and wanted to end up in the same configuration but with the new firmware, would I just fastboot erase cache and then fastboot flash zip firmware.zip?

You also have to do fastboot oem rebootRUU before you can flash firmware.zip, and remember to flash it again after it errors out the first time.
You may lose your current boot.img so have it ready to flash after updating firmware or else you will bootloop.

please have pity on me. i don't even know what s-on or s-off mean. all the tech jargon is confusing.
My rezound is rooted, but just so i can use it as a wifi hotspot. never done anything else to it.
it keeps on rebooting and fails to install this new update. my recovery screen says exactly what the OP's did.
i don't want to wipe my phone just for a stupid update. i'm not convinced that i even need an update. how can i stop it from updating or doing this?
in an unrelated note, is there a way i could hack my rezound so that i don't have to pull the stupid ring and deal with the lock screen?
can't i just press the unlock/power button and be on the home screen? just tell me what thread and keywords to search for, thanks!
Thanks to all you guys! this forum has helped me use my rezound's 4g for my laptop and tablet all over the country.:laugh:

Same here.
Same software specs as OP, everything on my phone is stock except it's rooted, keeps failing. Unlocked from HTC DEV, S-ON. Any advice?

If you don't want the update, just download titanium backup, find the apps called OTAUpdater and 'freeze' the apps to keep them from running. There's two ota apps, one from HTC and one from vzw
Holo locker is an alternative lock screen widget. Just install it and set lock screen security method to 'none'.

Is there another way to freeze them? I'm also not finding any app in the free version of Titanium that has OTAUpdater anywhere in the name. You can't freeze from the free version, though, and the Pro version is $6.58 in the store.

Yes, go to settings, manage apps. You still have to find app named otaupdater. In manage apps, you can 'disable' apps to keep them from running. Its the same thing as freezing.
Sent from my HTC Rezound using Tapatalk 2
Actually, I apologize for not just buying pro. For what these people do for us, $6.58 isn't too much too ask. I went ahead and bought it. I still am not seeing the otaupdater at all, though.
I did find MCC_OTA but that's the only thing at all that had OTA in the name at all. Think that could be it?

Yes, that's the one. Any other apps that say update or report are good to freeze, too. Any HTC or vzw apps you don't use. Vzw SSO you need if you use visual voicemail or my Verizon app.
And yes , you will find tibu pro is well worth the money.
