Hi friends,
I have rooted stock rom with unlocked bootloader. when I recieved the latest OTA update notification and tried to update, this update refused to install.
then I renamed this file to update.zip and installed manually.
After that I have 1.43.531.3 software version but with not working wifi and bluetooth.
I have CWM recovery, unlocked bootloader and rooted stock rom with all bloatware inside and just want to have latest software, working Wifi and bluetooth.
Please tell me in details what should be my next step?
Regards,
Zaza
I had the same problem the other day. xboarder told me it was my kernel and to search the forums. I had no such luck. I had to start from scratch, which meant I had to follow the instructions for "Step 4. Restore your Amaze 4g To STock- (This means you will have amaze back to the way you bought it from store)". afterwards I started over from Step 1 - 3. Hope this helps.

I am trying to root my HTC Hero(Orange uk) but i keep running into a problem, im trying to copy the new recovery ROM to the phone but it keeps telling me that remote access isnt allowed. Also i can't use the flash rec method.
I previously had a rooted and custom ROM on here but removed it as some things didnt work then upgraded to the latest official HTC ROM (2.73.xx) and now i can't mdoify the recovery image.
sorry if i have been a bit vauge with my message but does anyone know how to overcome these problems?
Cheers

if you flashed the latest RUU update you need to create a goldcard and downgrade. using RUUs is generally the last option if you can't get your phone to work, because if you install the latest version you don't have any security holes that you could use. luckily there is the goldcard method, although it is a PITA (never did it, just read about it...)
not sure how this worked but i reinstalled the latest RUU and then installed flash rec and it worked
would be interesting to know what you did (with version numbers), so that question would be answered...
not gonna try though, don't want to get stuck with a generic rom
I have EC05 installed on my Samsung Epic 4G from Odin, and ClockworkMod Recovery v2.5.1.0. As you may know, Sprint recently released EI22 OTA, would it be safe for me to let the phone upgrade itself OTA? It keeps prompting me to update, and I would like to update using this method as long as it is safe. If it is not safe, can someone please provide me with a link to article to do it manually that would be safe for my phone? I'm always paranoid when upgrading or installing different ROMs.
This is the article I followed to get get my phone in it's current state:
forums.androidcentral.com/epic-4g-rooting-roms-hacks/71389-odin-ec05-froyo-ec05-prerooted-cwm-v2-5-1-0-rfs-odexed.html
bumped.
I'm in the same situation as druciferre. I'd like step-by-step instructions on how to safely update from a rooted EC05 to rooted EI22. Do we need to unroot with Odin first, then do official update to EI22, then root again?
I've found these excellent instructions from qbking77:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1337453
but I am not sure whether to follow them starting on EC05. Any advice/links welcome. Thanks.
Hello!
First of all, thank you - Condi - for this great tool.
Unfortunately I managed it to flash a downloaded OTA (signed-nbx03_007-ota-11000.014).
Right now, the device is rooted, has Android 3.2 and Kernel Build10#1 on it.
I was able to disable update notifications with your tool, but everything else is not working right now because of the common Build10 Problem.
Is there a way to get back to stock, even without root but @ 3.2.1 and the upcoming 4.0.3?
Thanks in advance!
Sorry, but this it not really true. The build#10 problem concerns only 3.2.1r2 version. Otherwise you would be not able to root your device with version 3.2.
Could you explain what you mean with "but everything else is not working right now because of the common Build10 Problem.", please?
Regarding your question .. it is really easy to go back to stock .. switch update notifivcation "on" (maybe you have to restore origional build.prop) and install the update version 3.2.1R2 ... done.
Its a bit difficult to explain, but right now I have 3.2 installed.
After switching the update notification to ON, I get the message to update to 3.2 again (!?)
Right now, I have root access in my device. The tool is able to switch notification on/off, but re-root or another step (6-8) is not possible for me.
I get the error that is typical for Build#10 in the script.
I have rooted HTC One, I noticed a new software update was released by AT&T, and I wondered if it I updated it, would my root be gone? I tried to update it and after downloading the update, my phone restarted and booted into TWRP recovery and I rebooted and there was no update installed. Are any rooted HTC One users experiencing the same problem? What should I do, should i just forget about the OTA updates?

Anytime you root the phone it changes the stock recovery so when the OTA tries to run it fails because the recovery needed to do it is the stock one. Just wait for someone to post a updated ota that works with twrp.
For the most part, updates will be baked into roms so you won't need to take the OTA

On top of stock recovery, you need to have all stock apps present on the phone. They can be frozen, but they must be there. The first thing any official OTA does it check the signatures of all .apks it expects to find on the device--if any are missing, the update will abort. I learned today that when you unlock your bootloader, several HTC-specific applications are automatically deleted from the phone and this will prevent the phone from accepting the OTA. You'll need to either A) replace those apks, or B) flash a stock NAND backup, flash stock recovery, do the update, then re-flash custom recovery and continue on from there.

I installed it and it worked great. I have a unlocked bootloader but I am not rooted.
AT&T update file name and location?
Same experience. If I knew the location and file downloaded through AT&T Software Update, perhaps I could install it through TWRP. Anyone know? Tried?

Please...a little advice
Many thanks for all your help.
One question:
I have an HTC One (ATT) - SW Ver 1.26.502.10, bootloader unlocked, rooted, bloatware erased.
If I flash CM 10.1 - does this include the latest OTA update.
Many thanks
Hey, I'm rooted and s-off, running (firmware, I think) 2.06.605.1 710RD. I've been ignoring the software update Verizon sent out a while ago by pressing the home button on my phone whenever the update popup appears, but I'd like to make it go away for good, and the best way to do that is to update.
The thing is, I'd like to do it without the hassle of unrooting and going back to s-on (if I even need to do that) to update, then getting s-off and root again. I heard it's possible if you flash a pre-rooted ROM of the update through a custom recovery, and I found a pre-rooted, updated rom a while ago on the forum, but now I can't find it. The update is called HTC6435LVW_2.07.605.1-2.06.605.1.
First of all, will this work?
Secondly, I'm going to keep searching for the 2.07 rom, but can anyone let me know if they have a link to the thread?
Thanks for your help.
Edit 2: To all who saw my first edit, I have confirmed that this is the TTY update, not the 4.2.2 update. However, I think the 4.2.2 update will be available after I flash the 2.07 update, so please let me know if flashing a pre-rooted rom still works for entire OS updates (and if there even is a pre-rooted rom for 4.2.2 yet).
Edit 3: Wow, I should have finished reading xda's article on the subject before I edited last time. Apparently there's already a pre-rooted rom for the 4.2.2 update, so that won't be a problem. Ok, that should be all.
