Cool story bro....... lol had to say that. But don't expect ics for a while. This thread is probably going to be locked/closed.

We all know about it it has been around for a little while

UCKK6 has been around for nearly a month as an OTA at this point, and even longer as a leak.
Why do people insist on always posting that they got a damned OTA? 99% of the time they just got what everyone else has had (or has been avoiding) for a month.

Try it again. Sometimes you need to do it twice to get ICS.
Too many people are trying to download it at once.

I JUST DID IT, but damnit, this OTA update broke basically everything, including my buttons... phone doesn't work, wifi doesn't work either... if I wanted a useless phone I would have gotten a Galaxy Player not an SII...

Hence why people avoid it. I never did the ota update but when using one of unnameds older gingerbread roms versus one based on 2.3.6 you can see the battery drainage and lag differences.

New ota. Beware.

Some have been saying that it was safe to take the ota... But there is another new one. I am betting it closes the hole. So be careful.

From what they've said, it's not recommended to take future OTAs, so a new one probably won't be safe... but I doubt it closes the hole as I would bet that they don't know what it is yet.
Just because someone discovered it, doesn't necessarily mean that HTC already knows where to find it.
I won't be taking anymore updates, because I don't want to lose the opportunity for root, but I bet this one wouldn't close the hole.
But, thanks for the heads-up about the new one. I haven't noticed it yet. Too busy tearing my phone apart lol.

Aside from the random FC i have absolutely no issues... Aside from a weak 3g radio, but, there have been no radio updates as far as I know.
Also sense blows. That is all.

i just checked and their wasn't another OTA.
Nothing new sense the Launch Day Updates
That's odd because I certainly got a new OTA prompt. And it is the first time that when I decided... The prompt went away.
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
What was the original one? Because I think this one that prompted me was 1.13.651.7
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
I don't think that this a new OTA you are getting. There were 2 that were pushed so far, and that is all Sprint lists on their website.
Something even more interesting though, and looked for the Evo3D Support section and it doesn't exist... I know that it was there about a week ago, just seems odd that there isn't any support section and they don't even show a link for the Evo3D to select as a phone in the support section..
Don't jump to conclusions on the phone not being there, but I would guess that it isn't there for a reason.. Hopefully something good!
OP: The one you were prompted for was the 2nd one.
no new ota atm
No new update for me either.
Is there a way to see the change log for HTC updates?

I think the closest you will get is on Sprint's website. Like I said a few posts back HTC doesn't have the EVO 3D listed anymore on there support section. That is where they used to show you what was in it, a little more detailed than Sprint..
Whats going on there... We can only wonder.

Nope, I just installed the OTA (1.13.651.7 from the 24th.)
downloaded fast over WiFi.
No new OTA here. Last time the 3vo had an OTA was the day of public release.

So how is ur phone running with the update?

Words with Friends and CM9

So I'm throwing this out there as its kinda driving me crazy, though I kinda know what the answer will be.
I play words with friends have done for a few months now, 2 weeks ago I flashed my Samsung GS2 with CM9 build 01062012 thinking It wasn't going to be stable enough to run as a daily I was shocked at how smooth it was etc.
I've now been using it as a daily and will continue to use it, will just re-flash it when bugs get fixed etc.
Now back to WWF, so I installed this and played it, it seems every other go it freezes my phone, to the point only battery removal will solve it.
I emailed the dev for the game and they said bug fixes were coming, I've had 2 updates in a week and each time it solves it for about a day then goes back to freezing my phone.
The weird part of this is when it freezes I hold power down for 10 secs and it turns off I reboot and once back on, the battery would've lost like 15/20% charge, I had to do this 4 times within an hour the once and my battery went from 80% to 13% just cos of rebooting . Then even more weirdly after deciding not to play the game my phone's charge went from 13% to 20% over a half hour period
Has anyone encountered weird behaviors like this before?
I know that this is a testing ROM would this cause this issue?
Yeah man, I play that **** too and had the exact same problem. I just put it down to cm,9 being an alpha. Sorry I've got no fixes but your not going mad. Ha
I just play it on the iPad instead until the rom becomes more stable.

Disappointment just kicked in.

Conspiracy Theorists : AT&T limits update requests

I tried to check for any updates (ICS? ) and got a reply back saying I could try again in 23H 55m. What does this mean? Anyone???
My guess is ATT is annoyed people keep checking for ICS that they started tracking us. OR it means ICS is coming .......LOL.

Nothing new. Their update method has always only allowed you to check it once per 24 hours. However, there's a way to force it as many times as you want; I forget how (Google it with "XDA" behind your search terms). The question is though, why you would want to update via AT&T. There'd be more than an unlikely chance of getting some mangled BS. I will never understand those who prefer official updates; at most, you should be excited that our guys can get their hands on it, as opposed to installing it.

At first I thought to myself. I'll just use a custom rom until official update. Once I flashed I never turned back. Would never even think of flashing even to official ics which will be loaded with bloatware and worst of all...touchwiz...

I just got the official ICS Upgrade From AT&T

I plugged my phone in and it said an update was available.
I checked for an Over The air and nothing, then I plugged it into
my PC and launched Kies, and it showed an update was available.
Ran the update and it is ICS 4.0.3
If I would have been smart I would have taken screen shots of how
I had my screens, now I have to try and remember how I had them.
Please try to keep this thread on topic

Lucky man. Any chance they're doing this in phases so their servers don't get overloaded? That's the only reason I can think why there's so many people, including myself, not getting the update.
Don't worry fellas after the update your phones will look exactly like they do now with all the Samsung and AT&T bloat, a hint of lag and worse battery life.
