Honeycomb update. - HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G

Should everyone with a View be able to update to Honeycomb or is it rolling out in phases? It keeps telling me my tab is up to date.

Same here.. The reason I got this tablet was to have an inexpensive HC tablet. Guess I may have to root.

I can be patient as long as i know its coming soon

If it's fresh outta the box, it could take up to a few days for the update to push. If you root before the OTA hits, you'll have to use Globatron's install method.

Will it have to be activated on Sprint, since Sprint is the one pushing the update?

For some reason, when I got the View out of the box, the update didn't show automatically. What I did was go to the settings, go to "About Tablet" (I think) and check for HTC Software updates. That did the trick.

Mine shows that its up to date when I do.that

Nope. I've had a Sprint OG Samsung 7" since it's release, never put it on a mobile network (just wifi at home) and have received all of the OTAs. It'll come, I promise!

Just checked on ine for an HTC update and it tells me a security update is available. The file is about 5mbs. Can't install it right now because my battery is lower then 35%.
Anyone install this update and do you know if it will mess anything up if I wan't to root GB? I just want to make sure it isn's HTC messing with the hboot or something...

I was wondering the same thing, because I got mine from 1saleaday and am only using it wifi. I thought about buying buying a day of data to see if that would work.

I would not directly install any ota if rooted. You can download the ota but sellect to install later. You can then look for the file you downloaded and take a look at what it contains, and can likely flash it through recovery. do a backup first

It can take some time to get the right update. Don't worry. If you're patient it will come. I got worried when people said they got an update, & I didn't. Got mine a week or so later. You'll know when it comes. Its about 200MB

It is OK to install this update (non-HC of course).
You still will be able to use revolutionary S-off method and then root.

Yes.
HC OTA will kill the root.
And then you'll have to go back to GB if you want root.

The updates normally have to be installed in succession, leading up to the big upgrade. Any update is a step in the right direction.
If you're S-OFF & rooted, why not use Globatron's update method? It's easy, and you won't have to wait for an OTA push.

I am not s-off and not rooted but will get around to it one day. Don't want to install the official HC update and not looking for it but just wanted to know if the security update would change anything when I am ready to root my device on GB.
That was the reason for me asking and my question has been answered above...

Lol, good point and then it took me a minute to realize why I posted that here...I was trying to force the update to see if HC showed up but that security update showed up. I was going to flash that and try again to see if HC would show....Anyway, I didn't install the update and just finished rooting...
Speaking of rooting, CWM doesn't support the internal SD card or is there a newer version that does?

Soo its the 24th...

Hopefully the ota DOES get pushed onto my Eris sometime today, its my only hope right now to get root...

Worked for me, but honestly just root your phone its waaaay better! Because you can use the OTA 2.1 for your root which I have done and you can overclock your eris to make it run faster. Waiting for 2.1 seems kinda pointless to be honest.

Were you running the leak? No?
Verizon's Twitter has said that leakers should have the OTA today... Also those on the leak don't have root... So while you failed to add anything of value to the conversation we appreciate your contribution.

He never stated in the original post he was running leak so back off jackass. You actually added no contribution to this with being inconsiderate and ignorant.
To the OP sorry I did not know you were running leak, maybe state that next time, but hopefully verizon will push you the OTA.
I hope it comes out for you guys, even though its just v3 which you can flash over the leaks...but I wouldn't trust VZW's twitter page for accurate or reliable information.

From what it looks like, checkin looks at your system and if updates are available on either the market or the ROM, it will give you a notice accordingly.

Its stabilized out, but thats a little strange. Anyhow back to my original reason for posting, NO OTA according to the Twitter guys.

Well I'm sorry to tell you this, but the OTA update won't downgrade your bootloader (I'm assuming you're a leaker). Even if you were able to apply the OTA update (which you can't) it still wouldn't allow you to root your phone. If you want root you'll just have to wait for it (which probably won't happen) or get an eris that hasn't been leaked.

Should I take the OTA?

I haven't really noticed anything, however the app update was supposed to fix the constant syncing issue with the "Watch" application. Could help you on battery a bit. I don't think its anything real big.
But, the dev's have recommended not taking the OTA.
I haven't taken it yet everything is smooth for me so far. Heard bad things about taking the OTA that has come out waiting on a newer one.
OTA = Not good and i have had no problems thus far. Hold off because root is so worth it!

i took it so i could watch 3d videos and green hornet..i have not notice any problems.
The OTA had its own bit of issues look it up on the google. It did something funky to the icons and few other issues.
Taking it wont screw up the chance to get root tho just have to wait on HTC to unlocck the phone.
update download
Is there a way to get this update off my 3vo I'm afraid its gonna eventually dl on its own and take the update
There is going to be another OTA update before root is found. Seriously who really wants to run an old busted OEM RUU that's rooted?
Me personally, I want the latest and greatest OTA, Rooted, and customized. I'll wait for that. In the meantime. Give me all the OTA you have. Updates are good! Omnomnomom!

I don't think it is an issue do to the fact that we are still getting the root, therefore in my opinion they were aware of it and the fix was needed to allow 3D Watch to work which means there's still was a bug or two possibly we will get the the root still over this, shouldn't have any effect against the rooted OTA coming
You guys sure are putting a lot of faith in HTC.....No updates for me until I see one that includes the S-Off bootloader. If your phone's truly not performing to your expectations have at it, but if you really want root at the earliest possible time and your phone's working ok without the OTA's......DON'T TAKE THEM. Remember, you can update at anytime, but you can't always revert back to what you had.

The OTAs are fine. "When" HTC puts out the update for the s-off it will be done via the OTA so you'll have to do it then anyways. The whole "I don't want to update because I won't be able to root it" bull**** is just ignorance. In order to get the root you'll have to update, so might as well do it now and get the bug fixes done.
BTW, running all OTAs and my phone runs like a champs with 0 issues.

You're probably right but at the same time, you could be wrong. If someone wants s-off ASAP then it's safest to not do the OTA just to make sure they're running the same version the Devs are trying to crack. Straying from their targeted version is a risk because we don't know what bug they're exploiting. If you're willing to wait for HTC's s-off then sure, OTA away.

One thing that I found out is that if you install the Google+ ICS version, you are going to run into problems with your Calendar (events disappearing when created on your phone to your Google Calendar) and Contacts (the ones that you have associated with social networks apparently). I re-installed the Market GB version and everything else was back to normal.
Hi does anyone know if they had run into problems with the OTA and rooted only phones? I only have shabbypenguin's all in one click root applied
Can anyone kindly confirm what to expect if I did the latest OTA update in that situation? I think from the last official OTA update, I lost root and had to reapply shabby's again. Will that work again in case it happens with the 10/12 OTA?
Thanks for the info as it can't be asked on the mopho official support, and I want to keep my wifi tethering. Cheers.

Mine is OCR, otherwise very stock. OTA stuck at 0% downloading for 10 hours.
From looking at forums here, Moto, other places, many OTA failures while downloading and installing whether rooted or not.
I ran an update last night (maybe around 9 or 10pm EDT), it just sat there and did nothing, at least until 1am. When I got up this morning, it was stuck at 1% downloading. I turned off Wi-Fi/Tasker, rebooted, and the thing downloaded and installed without a hitch. FYI, I had rooted using torpedo, lost it after update, and then re-ran the scripts after update and everything seems back to normal.
I also attempted to update my wife's Photon, which is completely stock (no root) -- hers also waited a long time before downloading, but it finished the download sometime overnight and updated fine.

Keep checking for software updates, it'll tell you there is no update when the server load is high, after all, everyone is updating. If you're s-on just make sure you're on complete stock, if not flash the stock ruu via hboot, if you used the leaked ICS, well your chances are nada unless you s-off.
what is s-on and s-off?
Had to manually update from hboot. Got a little scared as the phone turned off when I was updating. Pressed the power button and it came back to hboot then it updated from there.
Security ON or Security OFF, if you're off, you can downgrade and flash the official ICS or upgrade to any of the leaked or official files, while on the other hand if you're on, well you have to do everything officially and there's no downgrading allowed.

Hey Dark, remember you said yesterday about flashing the stock recovery and relocking my BL via Hasoon? Will it all went as planned last night, dies that mean I'm back to stock, or will I still have to flash the GB RUU?

Everything is stock, so you should be clear. Just make sure your software version corresponds with one of tmo's stock software id's for GB.
You don't have to relock the BL by the way, you just have to be on stock recovery/software.

[Rant]It gets deleted because there are like 50 threads opened up every time a noob has an issue. This site is not www.noobsupportRus.com. It's a site for development. If u screw up your phone because you didn't read or know what you're doing, its not worthy of opening a new thread begging for help.
Now, if someone were to get the Amaze, they wouldn't know where to start because of all the clutter yapping about the same **** over and over.
If you're a noob unwilling to read, then leave ur phone stock or pay someone. Moderators have been asking for this over and over and over... It gets old.
Has anyone wondered where most of the regular senior members went lately? I've never seen any forum like the Amaze forum... Where noobs actually run people away from xda with stupidity. [/Rant]

For the record, it was proven by mrmako earlier that the leak and official updates are the very same version, etc.

this is odd to me. why wouldnt you flash the leak? do you think t-mobile magically cooks up ota's to send out to its subscribers? ota's come from the manufacturer (with the exception of GED's) and are sent to carriers for testing. the carrier then decides whether it will accept the ota or reject it. this is why you saw a revision in the build number from .1 to .3. .3 was accepted and pushed out to amaze owners, over-the-air.
the leak is just an earlier release of the final product. im not sure whats so hard to understand about that? you guys that were waiting, couldve been running the ota ics like 2 weeks ago...

Just give up... I'm starting to think we are the only ones whobread each other's posts. People are gonna be their own "experts."
Good luck waiting for ICS. When mt4g got ota gingerbread, my stock unrooted glacier never got the update. I had to flash it in bootloader (which nobody here will do since its not ota... Amh)

CM 10 help

I cannot post in the development page yet..... can someone please link me the download page for CM 10, would love to mess around with it.
Also i am not rooted yet, i took the OTA and now can root with the roots currently available, If i do a full wipe to factory will it also take out the OTA so i can root my EVO?
Factory reset will not take out root

yes I know it wont take out root, however i am not currently rooted, I took the OTA update to fix Gwallet. Is there a way to get back to the original version of sense so i can root?
I don't think so, someone please correct me if I'm wrong as I don't believe in otas, but once u take it, it will always revert to the latest update rather than the original version.

That's what i was afraid of.... got a little trigger happy for gwallet, wanted to wait till after my thirty days to root....... gwallet fix came before the end of the thirty days, now CM10 is launching and wished i hadn't taken the OTA

There were root options that fixed it within days of it being borked. Long before the ota. Oh well, you live and learn
Also, nobody can link you to the cm10 download page. If you want the ROM you HAVE to go to IRC to get it. Theres a sticky with a link in it in the general section.

HTC dev puts many restrictions on you. You can't flash radios, splash screens, or kernels from recovery, and you can't flash anything via bootloader.
