[Q] Can't Get Most Recent OTA on Straight Talk - HTC Droid DNA

Hey all,
So I've been constantly checking for the OTA with my Straight Talk SIM, and nothing ever happens. It's like the phone isn't even looking for it. It says I have to switch to CDMA mode, so I do, but then still, nothing happens. It's frustrating. Do I have to have a working Verizon SIM for the phone to look for the update? I have an old Verizon micro SIM that the phone recognizes but it's not making a difference...

Anyone?

You have to be on Verizon to get the ota.

No your not stuck but it takes a few steps to get the update on straight talk. You will not b able to get the ota but you can side load the update with ADB and fastboot if u know what you r doing. I don't own a DNA so I don't know much about them but I'm sure u can find instructions to flash a ruu if you look around this site long enough. Good luck and hope it works out, and by the way I was gonna get the DNA on straight talk but heard MMS wasn't working, is this still a problem?

Are you unlocked and rooted?
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda premium
yea i am but it didnt work on stock either after the first load right after i got it , ever since that one time did not work :/
It's working great for me, right now.
Still locked and non-rooted
I get the error in the attacked image everytime I try to stream.

I can't remember if it ever worked for me. I almost want to unroot and re lock just to get it to work if it will.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda premium
it worked for me when I first got the phone, but after I rooted it stopped working... either because of root itself or because I have adfree android (even though I didn't apply it yet)
Works fine on stock for me
I get the same error when it is about to start streaming.... How do we fix this?!?!
It worked great totally stock, however once rooted it stopped working.
I'm still running the stock Rom, just rooted.

Nope, its due to the unlocked bootloader, not so much root.

For those with the new update

Does anyone know if someone is working on a possible root method for it, I'm dying to root again. Had to get a replacement device and came with the update already on it.
Thanks

They are working on it no ETA but they said they dont need anymore testers so maybe thats a good sign.

Yes, but most people want their phone to be opened up, voiding the warranty and whatnot.

Question about unlocking bootloader with causal

I have question about using casual to root and unlock bootloader. After a few trys I was able to root but no success in unlocking bootloader. Ive followed the instructions and watched the YouTube video and nothing. My question is did I get bad download or did Verizon pull another fast one? Or is it simply triail and error.

It may be helpful to say any errors or where it's failing. Also what method are you using? Are you sure it's the newest method by Adam? There are a lot of reasons you may be failing.

It allows you to flash custom ROMs found for example in the Developer sections.

You must not be following directions. There is even a video to guide you through it. Droidstyle's guide works flawless.

I just successfully used Adam's method. It works great. Had to reinstall the drivers before it worked, but other than that flawless. Check out pg 65-66 of his thread for more details.
If you find this hard to unlock, thank god you didn't own a thunderbolt that took near a half hour entering command line prmpts to unlock. Or the rezound that you had to short circuit with a wire in a precise time to unlock.
This phone was cake in comparison.

Wow....

The 2.06 update pops up every time I unlock my phone. I'm walking to the store, I look at my phone and behold its installing the 2.06 update on its own. Well played Verizon. The thought of selling this phone never crossed my mind, but since 2.04 root is priority over 2.06 I'm highly considering it.

It's not about how good stock is or isn't. It's about being able to do what you want.
Go try and use teamviewer or a vnc server. Need root.
How about Wi-Fi tether that doesn't require a screen password. Need root
Titanium backup? Nope... root.
Game cheat engine's... root
So while the stock interface is fine, no unrooted phone can do the above without it.

[Q] Sending S4 back to Verizon

So for anyone that has sent theirs back to try and get on with the old software on the phone... I called and told them my speaker wasn't working and they are sending me a new one but I believe it is going to be a factory refurbished black 16gb...what are my chances of it having old software so I can root, unlock and get custom recovery?! Anyone that has experienced this your input would be greatly appreciated!!! Thanks!!!

If you took the time to search there many posts of ppl sending back and getting phones with MDK, also those with new OTA, so like I said, it's a crap shoot and it's 50/50.. Cant hurt to try, though
The chances likely decrease each day for getting the MDK build so the sooner the better.

Nobody would know the chances. Good luck with your refurbished. I dont know about sending in a perfectly working phone to receive a refurb, I guess if you want the MDK then do what you gotta do. I personally cant stand the purple smear on the MDK build...its horrible and unbearable.

All roms built off of mdk do this smearing, even AOSP builds. Its very noticeable in the gallery too.
I'm surprised nobody notices it other than me, its the most annoying thing to deal with, makes the gs4 screen look crappy.
