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!

Umm... What?
I did the OTA and I still can't watch the green hornet. It says that there are no videos found. Help?

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.

You need to format your SD and go reload the stock SD content from the devs section

I had the update installed on both mine and my wife's 3VO and, aside from the phone icon on the lock screen, which was remedied with a hard reset, I haven't had one single problem.
XDA Premium App, biatches!

The ota worked fine for me
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.
HTC came out said late august early september, in light of this recent news is anyone taking the OTAs?
I've taken all the OTAs without any problems. Phone works great and I have no problems with Free3vo.
Since HTC came forward and said they will unlock I'm debating updating mine.

Nope.... Launch day stock for me until something is actually done.

Launch day stock as well. Old wifey's has all the updates but she's not into root. I think about taking the updates but I always decide not to. Kind of reminds me of my virginity
...nice upgrade from hero
Why wouldnt u take the updates that have already been released? All know root exploits work with the OTAs that have been released..future updates ok i might see not taking but not taking the ones out now doesnt make any sense!!

+1 I recently got a warranty replacement for mine and I debated taking the update for a couple days. I finally decided to do it because the current temp root exploit works with both software versions. I really don't see much point in not taking the update.

Because the OTA updates the bootloader (from v1.30 to v1.40... I think). The current root exploit is only for the OS and when/if s-off is acheived from our devs it may only work on the earlier version. Hboot has control over more than just the OS so if the earlier version has an exploit that the newer version doesn't then everyone who took the OTA may very well be screwing themselves out of s-off until HTC does unlock the bootloader. I myself am going to stay away from any and all updates until either HTC or teamwin or anyone else can give us full root/s-off. My phone runs just fine like it is now, on launch day software.
I just updated to the latest ota, now my dialer icon is gone from the app drawer and lock screen. The dialer is there, but icon is gone... Can someone post the apk for me so I can get the icon back? Thanks.

That's very strange. Any time you need an .apk though you can just open one of the copies of the stock rom in the development section.

Not sure if this will do anything for you but you might need this as well. I tried to attach it on the previous post but it wouldn't let me. You have to rename it to "HtcDialer.odex". I changed it to a .zip because I kept getting invalid file while trying to attach it.
Why are those two dialers different file sizes?

I had this happen, but after a reboot everything came back.
I guess there never was an icon in the app drawer. Just looked at a buddies evo and he doesn't have one either and said there never was.

There is another OTA that fixes the phone icon.
No way OTA.
Tonight I got a notification on my phone that a system update is available. My phone is rooted but still running stock. Will allowing the system update to go through cause me to be un-rooted again, or can I proceed with the update as I normally would?
I do not really want to have to fuss with this tonight but the update icon is getting on my nerves.
Wait for a stock rooted rom or you will lose root!!!

Not what I was hoping to hear but I knew it was probably the answer.
At this point I just have to get over the dumb update icon showing up. Blah.
OH SNAP!
Oh crap--better grab my snacks and a drink *gets his mountain dew and pretzels*. 3-2-1 Here comes the flaming;;;;;;;;; QUESTIONS IN THE DEV AREA?!
Should ask for a mod to move this to Q&A before the trolls come and set fire to this..but yea wait for a rooted update. Probably just CIQ stuff anyways

Pretty sure profile updates are basically network refreshes, won't do anything with your hboot for damn sure buddy

Running latest ota rooted. When i do an update check it doesn't give the no updates available message, just returns to the check/status screen. I did ruu the 3.14 update but not the 4.0 one. Just thought it was weird since i normally get a message saying no updates avail.

This happened to me a while back, rebooting the phone fixed it.
Same after 2 reboots. Hope it gets future updates.
Same thing happens to me, even after a full reboot. Maybe it's a network thing.

Are you running a custom recovery? I've heard if you are on amon ra or similar recovery and not stock, then it won't let your phone update. Also if your HTC dev unlocked is another blocker. Must be stock to get ota's.

Mine is doing the same thing now. Stock, S-on.
stock rooted. well, not too worried then, as long as it isn't just me.
So this morning the Easter bunny left me a present... My AT&T LGOG says software update available. Does anyone know if the bunny dropped off Jellybeans or just another egg?
I was trying to get a screenshot of the useless message, but the update tried to install and the phone rebooted. Then the firmware update screen reported a failure. After reboot my phone still works on ICS. I'm going to take a backup now and be safe as long as the update doesn't update recovery/bootloader...
Turns out my screenshot worked after all.

What are the changes?
Got the same update notification but when I tried to install it, gave me a error message because I'm rooted. Was hoping it will be jellybean.

It isn't I woke up and installed it hoping it would be JB, turns out it is a minor update to 11c that was handed out to a lot of people in December.

Was just wondering that. My E970 is rooted on the stock ROM. Doesn't seem like the update does anything useful.

Darn, I was thinking it would have been quite funny if AT&T released a candy named update on a holiday associated with said candy...
Yep, I am still on 10o so this is just the step to 11c.

Yes. Can you re-root it?
I'm on stock & rooted. Not unlocked.
Update notification went off this morning; read some of this thread; told it to let me know again in 8hrs.
Just went off again, I said ok, whatever, told it to update. It rebooted, & now it's just sitting there at the white, "rethink possible" screen.
Key combo reboot actually got it into the "software update" screen, but that then error'd at 1% complete. Error was something like, "01X03fed." It disappeared too quickly while I was typing this. Rebooted again, fully this time, and a, "Installation interrupted" warning is showing.
Hopefully the update notification will be gone, too...
