Hi, ya'll!
I posted this question yesterday, nobody responded.
I'm running the .33 EU leak and I got a notification that an official update will be coming within a week.
So when they finally push the OTA can I update directly from the leak or do I have to flash it?
what do I have to do to go back official??

If nobody replies: wait and DON'T create another thread asking the same question. This just clutters the forums and makes it hard to have some overview about what's happening.
To your question: Again, wait. You are not the only one not having that official ICS update yet. When it gets pushed out to everybody, be sure that someone on here will make a guide for us 33 leak users.
If you already got that message, I'd even say that you can update the standard OTA way, but that's just a wild guess.
Thank you!
I looked around the forum and they said that the .33 eu is the final OTA build weird because I recieved that update notification.

I have a qeuestion regarding these OTA Updates
[*]My Hero is from Orange UK. But as of now, I m running SuperHero in it. So is it necessary to go back to the stock ROM to get the updates through OTA. Or is it enough to be connected.?
What for the official 2.1 release you mean? If you update you're unlikely to ever get it rooted again (though i'm sure someone will do it in time). But you'll be stuck on 2.1 til HTC update it (unlikely). If I were you i'd just wait for the updates to come from the community.
If you're talking about SuperHero OTA updates just run hte villainrom updater...

If you wanted the official Orange update (presuming it did come OTA), then you would need to be running the official ROM.
SuperHero is gonna be getting an update though which will make it more like the official ROM
I'd strongly advise not to install any stock update, as that will include a new SPL, which will try to prevent you rooting again. Stick with a custom ROM for now, and then you'll be able to grab a 'safe' copy of the final ROM from a dev over here when it's available. That way, you get a final copy but you also keep root.

Thanks fella. Much appreciated. I am very well aware of the effects of the official ROM Update. I bought my Hero from Orange UK, then I unlocked it and I am using it in India now. So was curious and confused regarding the update. The only thing which custom 2.1 ROMs didn't give me is a 'working exchange sync'. Each time I tried to sync it gives me an error caused by security certs. So I m still relied upon my Black berry for my official emails.

I posted this in another thread but thought it was worthy of starting a new thread to get as much feedback as possible. See below:
I too am getting the dreaded IP_PREVIOUS_UPDATE_FAILED error when installing the Froyo OTA update that was officially released by Verizon on 4/20 so I called Verizon (I actually called twice to see if I would get the same answer, which I did). What I was told is that when an OTA update is released it's released in phases. If you are not included in the group of phones that the OTA was officially released to then you will not be able to install the OTA update.
So, the question I have for everyone on this thread is did you receive an auto notification on your phone when you turned it on or did you go into settings and do a manual system update check? If everyone that is getting the IP_PREVIOUS_UPDATE_FAILED message after downloading the OTA did a manual check then that might in fact be the answer to this issue. If the IP_PREVIOUS_UPDATE_FAILED is coming up even for people who got an automatic notification of the OTA update to Froyo then once again Verizon has no clue!
Loved to get a show of hands on this.
Thanks!
Hey guys/gals, so I recently rooted my WiFi tab using this method:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1239185
My question is, once the OTA ICS update rolls around from Samsung what will happen to my device?
Thanks.
your device will get android 4.0...
If you allow the ICS update, it will update you to ICS but remove your root. If you flash a custom ROM then you won't get the ICS update until you go back to stock.
or until we get custom ICS roms. Which at the rate development of them is going in xda, may be before the ota release.

Yeah, I have been on GB with my Samsung Captivate for over 3 months and there is no eta yet for an official update to GB yet.
often people will root the ota to keep root. i would imagine we will have ics roms before samsung releases it.
>>I'm just curious if anybody else has received notification of a new update from AT&T recently, and if so, what was it?
I've had my E970 for about a month now. When I first received the LGOG, I did receive a FOTA notification and did the update. Then
I rooted, unlocked BL and installed TheBase.
Last night, I received another notification regarding an OTA software update being ready to install. Since I was actually ok with the stock LG ROM, I made a backup and then went ahead and let the update install.
Most of you won't be surprised to hear that the device rebooted into recovery, I received an error message, and the update failed.
Luckily, I didn't brick anything. I like all the information we get before allowing an app to install, and I can't believe there is no info given about what an update to our OS might contain. A version number [4.0.4 or 4.1.2?] and a short description saying bugfix / security fix / new features would go a long way here.
Personally, I kinda like the LG touches to Android and am looking forward to the official JB update.
I plan on sticking with stock-based ROMS on this device until it's no longer supported and then going back to CM.
I'm running Android 4.0.4
Baseband: APQ8064 / MDM9x15M
Kernel: 3.0.21
The Base 0.6.5
E97010l
I just checked for an update and...
now it says it is up to date?
I wish I had more information, and I DID search the forums and elsewhere to try and answer this myself first.
Now I'm thinking that AT&T is just trying to update me to their latest software and away from a custom ROM.
Incidentally, the OG is the first Android that I've actually done a FOTA on. I received the Atrix 4G and the X10a long after their release, and went immediately to custom ROMs.
It's just updates to E97010c. Nothing worth updating for.

I'm currently s-off/rooted running ViperROM. I received the notification that the OTA is ready for download already but haven't taken it. Joelz said that he suggests updating the firmware for when he drops his 4.4 sense 5.5 ROM. I want to update to 4.2.2/sense5 via the OTA to be up to date on "stock", but as i've never taken an ota while on a rom i'm a bit nervous. does anyone mind giving me a hand in taking the update then regaining root/s-off?
