[Q] How to get the update OTA from using other carriers? - HTC Rezound

I wonder if I use Rezound with other carrier SIM card, how can I update the OTA (like Build Number: 2.01.605.11) without unlock/root?

I don't believe it's even possible because the OTA is coming directly from Verizon.

Run the RUU posted in the Vigor shipped roms thread in the development section

Thanks for the answer.
Tmrw I will try to just make up some reasons and ask the Verizon store to do it for me. If they refuse, unlock/root is the only way I guess.

Wats IIRC?
I cant root my phone, I have replaced motherboard, so it seems that they have locked my bootloader, I tried many times to root, it wasnt possible.
Is there any way to Install new ICS Update, I mean in India, we dont have network update, is there any direct HTC Update for EVO 3D ?

But sprint is holding it back for us .
I have no idea about GSM tho .

The bad news is if you positively can't root or unlock your bootloader then there is no way to flash anything.
The good news is that when the official release does come out. You should get it straight to your phone. Hopefully you will get a message of the official update. Just let it happen and watch your phone come to life.

Hay, the thing is in India, we dont have kind of Network releases, just like UK or US, We have directly sim cards available for usage for prepaid and postpaid, so in that case who release the updates
HTC?? or I have to download the RUU.exe file to update it?

I could be wrong but I do believe as long as your phone has access to the Internet, then once the official release is out, you should get a message asking if you want the upgrade. I had a Chinese knockoff phone for awhile running Android 2.1 Froyo and when Ginger Bread 2.3 came out, it upgraded. Just an unlocked unbranded GSM phone.
Your only choice is to wait for the upgrade. Probably out by the end of July. Everyone is guessing.

The official RUU is not out yet so I don't know what you mean?
A .zip flash will not work for you because you said you cannot unlock your bootloader.
Unlock your EVO 3d and install a custom ics Rom from the GSM section.....

No code needed for SIM unlock. Settings> Security> SIM Lock Disable. At least that's how it is on my phone.

Interesting question. My Incredible 2 required an unlock code but my 4G didn't ask for one.
well the lates update made it global right, so that means you shouldn't need to have a special unlock code.. bottom option here should be all you need

ok cool thanks, i know i am asking too many questions but i prefer to ask twice instead of brick once
so all i do is
1) Rename to PJ53IMG.zip (make sure you don't get PJ53IMG.zip.zip in windows..).
2) Place the zip file on the root (not in any folders) of your SD card. (not internal storage).
3) Boot to Hboot by holding Volume-Down and Power.
4) Install.

By unlocking you mean from the carrier? If you update, you should receive the update from the carrier you are on.

If by unlocked you mean the bootloader, then no you wont get OTA with an unlocked bootloader. If you mean unlocked as in the international M8 then yes you would get OTA.

False. OTA will work fine with unlocked bootloader. But you need to have custom recovery and no system files altered.
Also, you will only get AT&T OTA if on AT&T network. Sine the OP is SIM unlocked, I'm assuming the device is being used on a different (not AT&T) network. But the device can be updated by RUU. RUU is available for 4.4.3 (hopefully 4.4.4 will be available soon) here:

You can receive OTAs while being on another providers network. I updated mine to 4.4.3 while I was in Europe before they pulled it.

Were you roaming on AT&T's network?
I've seen a couple reports here and there like yours. But for the most part, I've seen many (probably dozens of) instances of folks (on XDA and on AT&T forums) using AT&T devices on foreign carriers and not getting OTA.
As the OP has already missed 2 OTAs I'd say its reasonable to say he isn't going to get an OTA.

No, I was using a foreign sim and at that time I was on wifi since the edge network is horrible.

Okay, its on 1.58 at least. If it was still on 1.54 and you didn't get a notification to update to 1.58, it would be safe to conclude you can't get any updates. So there is still a small chance, I suppose. Although I wouldn't bet on it.

Yeah no updates till now, they rolled 4.4.3 but pulled it due to battery drain problems with OTA, but if u flash the 4.4.3 RUU you won't have any problems, or just wait till they roll 4.4.4

Unless on att as a carrier you wont get any updates from them,best bet is to soff change cid and flash us developer ruu 3.28.1540.5

I believe what he's saying is that if you have an unlocked (international) version of the M8 you wont get updates from AT&T just because that's the carrier you're using. You'll get the international models updates.
So I bought the device from some guy from Canada
it's unlocked at&t device (I'm not at&t carrier)
This is why you wont get updates from att,your not on their network,doesnt matter if phone is att based,the updates come from the carrier your using. Unlocked/US Developer devices are different they are supported directly ftom htc not a specific carrier. If your cid is CWS__001, You have an ATT branded phone,unlocked or not you wouldnt get any updates from ATT.
