hello everyone
i am facing a problem with my htc amaze from t mobile.
the problem is, after downloading the official ics ota update, the cellphone verifies the package and says it's good to go, so i click install now.
then, the phone restarts and shows the black screen with a phone in the middle and the green circle with an arrow in the middle, and underneath it the green progress bar with a sign of echanging file with the sd ( i guess it's unpacking the update)
at almost 1/4 of the progress, the green circle with the arrow in the middle transforms to a red triangle with an exclamation point in the middle, and the progress bar disappears.
at that point i restart my phone by removing the battery, and then it restarts in gingerbreadd as if i downloaded nothing and if i check for updates, it shows me the OTA one more time to download.
i had unlocked the bootloader and installed a superuser but i havent rooted the phone. i relocked it and did a factory reset without erasing the data from sd and the internal memory but the same problem happened again. i noticed the same problem while loading the bootloader and clicking on recovery. the same red triangle with the exclamation point appears.
does anyone have any ideas for what can be causing this problem, and more importantly what could be the solution without having to root the phone and stopping the tmob support.
note that i am using a different carrier since i am currently outside the USA.
Thank you all for your help

I use my HTC Hero with careful and never drop it. Everything was just fine until 3 days ago, when I texted a message, i noticed that the screen didn't response with my finger. I touch on line on the top of keyboard ( Q-W-E-R-T-Y...) but all it response was Enter, Backspace, Space, Settings...( all the buttons at bottom ) and type automatically when I don't touch the screen anymore ( it just auto-type all the icon at the bottom). And it appear at least 5times each day. When I got this problem, I lock the screen and then unlock the screen, do that for 3-4times and that weird things disappeared.
I tried factory reset over 3 times and re-calibrate many times but it useless. My phone is using Official Rom and haven't rooted yet. Yesterday, i tried to rooted it and installed another Custom Rom to see whether this problem will be solved or not, but it still the same. Does anyone ever have this problem? Please help me.
Here's my video I recorded to let you see about this problem ( on the attach file - Sorry i'm newbie in this forum so that I can't embed a video I've uploaded on Youtube because it said that "To prevent spam to the forums, new users are not permitted to post outside links in their messages" )View attachment 443134

THanks, I've read it but all I saw in that thread is that people get issues about they cannot touch the bottom screen all the time, but for me-it still works, just get weird for sometimes, so I wonder if anyone knows how to fix it? Or let me know is it the software problem or hardware problem?
the main easy solution would be re-flash

My Motorola Atrix keeps attempting to download the update every time I connect to a wifi signal and the download will finish and it will reboot the phone and the little green Android man will appear and the little file bin thingy will show, showing that it's loading the new update, then all of a sudden, there will be a triangle with an exclamation point inside the triangle and it just stays on the screen and I can't get it to like function without taking out my phones battery and then putting it back in and turning the phone on. Is there any way to fix this?
My system version is version.4.1.26.MB860.ATT.en.US
My Android version is 2.2.1

Im trying to root my tablet WITHOUT activating it through the simcard and i cannot figure out how to do it I was wondering if anyone else found a way to bypass the stupid SIM activation. I followed the steps on GALAXYTABHACKS.COM and i CANNOT go into recovery to install the zip file the screen just gives me the green android guy for software downloading and the other icon with the android logo and the white box. the tab conects to wifi fine through the settings and im able to download apps though the market and open them only through the market since i cant see the home screen at all. I managed to download the ZIP file into the sd card via dropbox but im just stuck now.
I wanna either bypass the stupid activation or root it then activate it later.
anyone? I'd appreciate the help. Any time of help lol
Did you select the Android + box? That's what you have to do. Follow the instructions here: http://www.fun47.com/verizon-4g-lte-samsung-galaxy-tab-rooted/
yea it keeps saying error 401 on the link when i go to the site. and when i click on the android + icon nothing happens just a blank screen
Hmmm, strange, the site works. Did you try to access it from your Tab or from a computer?

When the tablet ask the activation, just tape on the screen on each corner (up-left, up-right, down-left, down-right) and volume down (the right button in volume) and you're tablet will pass the activation.
I've done it on my own tablet and it works perfectly. If you need more help, I remain at your disposal.
Sincerely,
Avalon

tape on the screen on each corner together or just one by one ?
can u record a video for proof
i tried same u say many time but cant ( today 4G galaxy tap 10.1 verizon
bypassing 4g
Tap on the corner of the tablet in this order when it boots up
top left
top right
bottom left
bottom right
I am recalling from memory
for the final step
after above procedure
hit power or
hit vol up or
hit vol down
This means you will have to do this at least 2 more times that usual but, one of these sequences will work.
This will then bypass the 4g setup and go into wifi setup for the initial setup of the tab....
Hello, I’m having this same issue. I factory reset the tablet, and I keep getting an error message. It says “SIM Initialization error” a SIM card is needed to operate this tablet. Please turn off your tablet and insert your SIM card.” I do not have a SIM card, and would like to use the device with wifi instead. I have been unable to get the trick with touching the corners of the screen to work. Is there another way to bypass this screen? Or can someone post a video showing me how to do it right?
I like to share a very useful trick to everyone who use the jetstream with non AT&T sim.but want to update the firmware over the air.
HTC was only allowed update over the air if you use at&t sim and you have a data plan on it but with this trick you can bypass the restriction and use the ota firmware upgrade service like any unbranded, sim free htc device.
First you need to download quick system info pro app from market. Launch the app.
Scroll down and click to more info.
After that the hidden factory "about tablet" menu will appear and at the top you can see the software update. Tap on it and tap to search for updates right now.
Do not thick and turn on the scheduled update scan.
I attach some pictures.

Please use wifi connection. Ota update need wifi connection.

Please share if you can successfully update your device with this method. I hope someone can confirm this to work caus my device have the latest firmware and the update check says no available update.

I confirm its working! at least i tried and it worked for me.
I downloaded the application from the market.
I opened it and went to more info. and the software update was there.
I pressed on software update (while i was on Wifi with Orange SIM card) and then pressed "check now"
I was connected via wifi and the check towards at&t server was done.
Got a message that my device is update to the latest and no new update was found.
Well Done!
A good useful way to get future update without AT&T SIM.

Dito everything you said in your post. Same with the Jetstream here and hopefully the update will appear at some point to update my unit.
Followed the instructions and received an update to software number 1.30.502.1
Thanks for the tip.
Interesting... yesterday it said no update. Today, though, it said there was and the unit updated to the latest ROM. HUGE thanks for the tip!!!!
Hi,
I tried these instructions for updating my htc jetstream. It did show that a new version available, etc and even downloaded the necessary files. However, while updating, the screen went balnk, then it shows the android bot with a front panel open and a RED EXCLAMATION MARK - the type that would mean some problem encountered. I thought it might be a part of the update process. Have left it as it is and there has been no change since the past 15-20 minutes. Did anyone face this problem? Also, how long did it take actually to update the software?
Please help ASAP.

It was stuck on that screen for over an hour. So I connected it to the comp, used adb reboot bootloader as it recognised the device connected, did a factory reset and it worked finally. Though the update has not yet been applied. Will leave it for now and will try it again after some exams I got till the 1st of March.
Thanks anyways for the help.

Yes the update has various reboots, blank screen moments, etc yet never had that screen image like yours. The update takes about 15 minutes.

Guess must be some problem because it was stuck on that screen for around an hour. I must have done something wrong or something. In any case, reserved the update for a later-after my exams are done.
Thanks to all for the help.
So this method is successful? Can anyone update his device with this ota update?
I hope I helped a lot of you with this.

I'm kind of stuck and could use your help. It's much appreciated. I have an unlocked C6833 I've been using as a "mini tablet" (no SIM card/no mods/in the US). I received notification yesterday that there was an up date (I'm guessing the latest) so I downloaded it. I thought everything was going fine until I checked this morning and nothing---
Computer can't access phone when connected.
I can't access anything on the phone. The pic attached is the only thing that shows when I press the power button and then it turns off and the green dot starts to flash again.
Attached is a pic of whats going on.

What it says on the first screen? I can't read it. Can't you keep pressing next?
I think the error message said initialbootsetup not responding or something to that affect. I couldn't really do anything with the phone.
It turns out that the Sony servers were overloaded or had some glitch because of the release and a lot of people trying to upgrade were stopped in their tracks.
I should've known.....never had a problem like this w/ any other phone (first Sony). Seems like they've always had some sort of problem w/ their servers and whatnot. Oh well live and learn......
It's all good now. I was able to upgrade via usb/PCC the next morning.
