Noob question. Can you accept the ota with s-off or will it cause issues or possible brick? I haven't had my tbolt very long and it was already modified when I bought it.

You can accept it, but then you will lose root.

If your ROM was developed, ummm, "properly", it should have OTA updating disabled. Of course, not all are...

Yea it has been disabled on the Rom I'm running, I was just curious if it would cause problems if I took the update. I'm still learning the ins and outs of rooting. But I understand what your saying, I've seen some time that the ota push was not disabled.

I believe it will fail at the bootloader stage when it encounters a non-stock recovery.
I'm running stock n all I did was flash stock recovery via boot loader then download n install the ota, then flash cwm recovery via bootloader then flash the su zip then boom rooted ota

Googling stock recovery did nothing for me. I loaded killa sense 3.7, flashed the ota enable zip, but no luck. Error. I guess that elusive stock recovery is needed.

I don't think you can can you? But I wouldn't worry, it'll come in time. I have a lot of faith, especially with how fast everything else is happening. The phone has only been out 2 weeks today and we have perm-root and recovery both fully working. Now just to get some ROMs going and hopefully full dual-core support.
You should be able to do it through recovery in the form of an update.zip file.

That depends on the rom that's being flashed. Make a custom kernel in the form of a boot.img and I'll try to test it by recovery.
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G using xda premium
With the htc unlocked method you might have to flash kernels by booting recovery from fastboot because it has the proper permissions

The kernels I have used have also included system material as well as the boot.img - will that limit what can be done?

So the kernels would have to be a separate zip from the Rom?

Not necessarily. Many developers include a custom kernel with their roms.
I think I just messed up. I was following the direction to put the original stock on the device as advised but when I locked the phone it stuck on the HBOOT / Bootloader screen.
How can I fix this??

if you are looking to flash bamf, I think you have to root it first. Unless you are flashing stock rom, you must have your device root first.

After you flash both the rom and the kernel (boot.img) flash that zip.

Is your bootloader locked? Do you have a custom recovery installed? You must have a locked bootloader and not have flashed a custom recovery.. In other words bone stock

Im having an odd problem that I have never seen before. Im trying to flash Newts OnE XxX rom and looking for some help. When trying to flash the rom in recovery after about 5-10 secs. I get a massage saying the instal had failed. Any ideas as to what could be causing this and a way to get the rom to instal? I am s-off using teamwin recovery.
Bad download. Just download it again.

Thanks that did the trick. Never had a recovery give me an issue before when trying to flash anything. Sill have my fingers crossed for 4ext.
No problem. It's been my experience that Amon RA is the best recovery for HTC phones. I've pretty much used it exclusively since the droid eris.

If you still have the RUU downloaded just extract the recovery out of it.

First off. You are on the Global (4.03.605.2) RUU which isn't going to get an OTA. It doesn't need one. Only the official OTA from verizion which is build version 3.?.?.? something you would get the OTA
Makes sense. But why even release the ota if the ruu is newer than it
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda app-developers app
That RUU is a leak, not official.
