When ICS finally comes out for the Evo 3D, how do I update it? I am rooted and have installed Leedroid 3D and whenever I go to 'check for software updates' it just checks for ever and never notifies me. So, I would love to know how I will be getting ICS with my rooted device, does that mean I have to reverted to the stock ROM?

It's usually not a good idea to update oficially OTA when you're rooted. It can break root and cause other issues, potentially. As long as you're rooted with a custom recovery, all you'll need to do is wait for a developer to release a rooted version of the update that is safe to flash. Typically it happens within hours of the update being released.
thank you sir.
Hello,
If there are two updates available, for example the 3d games update and the android 4.0 (ics) update. But it's not possible to install any of them 'cause my phone is rooted. Will the phone show me the latest update (ics) or will it show the old one (3d games). So summarized do I have to install all updates to get to the latest one or can I ignore older ones and directly install the latest one?
And my second question is, is there a way to install an official update while using a rooted phone?
And finaly my last question. How do I unroot my evo 3d if I've used revolutionary tool?

What the smart majority of rooted users do is to wait for the updated files to be stripped by developers, so that your phone will not lose root or have sprint spyware installed. This also allows for the radio to be updated without running an RUU. Usually they have it ready within a few days, so unless you are REALLY impatient, or just don't want your phone rooted, then go ahead and install OTA updates.
The exception is the 1.5 hboot, which I was lucky enough to avoid. I THINK you have to unroot (those tools are located in the development stickies) to update.
Almost everything you need is under the development section. It just takes a little searching.

thanks
but u haven't really answered the first question. The problem isn't that i'm not able to update, the problem is that I don't know if there is or if there isn't an update.
btw i'm using a gsm evo 3d not a cdma version
I think you may be confused. You are talking about two different types of updates, app updates and system updates. App updates will always be shown in the market, and the Market should notify you of updates every few days. System (rom) updates are pushed out from your carrier. If you are rooted, you should NEVER take an OTA update. If you are rooted but still on the stock rom, you WILL get notified of the ota updates, just be sure NOT to take it. If you are on a custom rom, you likely wont get notified of the updates.

No i'm not confused. There is an ota update for german gsm evo 3d phones called 3d games. It includes some games, some other tools and also som bugfixes i think. It's not an update of any games in the market it's an ota rom update...
So my question was will it show the latest update or will it show the latest currently NOT INSTALLED update?

Why would your phone show the version of an update that's NOT installed?

If you are talking about ice cream sandwich its not out yet. There's a leak out but I wouldn't call it an ota until it comes to your phone ota.

Wait til it comes out and people determine if there's newer firmware first. If there is, it'll be the same process of locking, ruuing and unlocking then install the updated version of your current rom once the devs get their hands on it and start rebasing their builds. If the firmware is the same, it'll just be a matter of waiting to the dev of your rom of choice updates to the latest base then you can install their rom...
On a side note, the Razr update was supposed to go out today and so far, no sign of it from what I've seen, I wouldn't hold your breath for ICS on the 6th...
Hey guys, the OTA update from rogers HTC Evo 3D ICS has been released and i would like to up date my phone. The problem is that im running LeeDroid_3D_V5.4 and it doesn't seam to have a software update option in the settings menu.
So my question is, for me to get this update, must i restore my phone back to the original software using the Rogers RUU that i have downloaded?
Thanks, Peter
I am in the same boat here.
Everyone always says when you have root you shouldn't update your phone, just wait a little while and the devs will upload a version that you can flash without losing root.
Well I have yet to see this happen, it has been like a week since the ICS update and all the devs are using a still updating roms with a cluster**** of random leaks and bases.
Can someone just upload the stock rogers ICS rom so I can flash it without losing root and not having to flash back to my stock RUU?
I mean if we have all these versions of the official rom why are you guys still using leaks at all?
Check out Virtuous Shooter, it's pretty close to stock and most of the changes are performance related anyways.
PS A lot of the ROMs aren't using leaks anymore...

From my understanding, to take the OTA, you must relock your phone and then run the RUU. I would just wait until one of the talented devs builds a ROM based on the OTA because it will be much better anyway.
Ok. Thanks a lot everyone for there imput , I am thinking ill just hold out untill a stock Rogers ICS is released rather then do all that work to just have to reroot and probably end up installing another ics Rom over it anyways. I'm thinking this will be by King Cobra Roms as he always dose stock roms, so ill see what he comes up with. I am really looking forward to features in 4.0 and 4.1 . So hopefully they can get there buts in gear , put out a nice Rom, and ill buy them a few coffees and a pizza Thanks again everyone , have a good one !

And this phone has 700 mb+ of ram and I am pretty sure they wont release update just in middle & eastern europe, they just chosed this region to betatest update for them, before they make it avaliable worldwide (honestly, releasing update just for randomly selected nations would be highly illogical, therefore not true for company like this).
they cant release beta update all around the globe.. people who have gotten the update are already hating HTC (due to bugs), as to revert back is not as simple as installing any ROM, coz JB update, updates the hroot because of which to revert back one will have to revert the hroot version too.. Now think if that update would have released all around then what would have happened to all the Desire X users..
I think in around 2 months we all will get first stable release of JB on DX..
about the poll, its true HTC have released the beta JB update in certain regions of Europe
Question, is it fixable, can HTC do it from their side with an update. I assume they are clever people and are working on it.
