On a stock View I'm continually getting error code 1233 when I try to check for firmware/profile/PRL updates. The device has not been activated with Sprint. What should I do?
In what state did you acquire your view? I discovered my refurbished view was pre-s-off/revolutionary when I received it. This making it impossible to install ota's through normal means.
Same Error here
I'm getting the same errors on my new view. It did install one update as soon as I turned it on and connected to WIFI (only use WIFI).
I purchased mine from 1SAD, listed as new and appeared to be new when it arrived.
How would I know if S-Off was installed?

Mine is also from 1SAD, so it should be brand new (it looks that way).
I assume we are getting these errors from the System Updates page in Settings because I/we have not activated a Sprint plan - just using the View as a WiFi device

Is this going to affect anything as far as software updates or does it not matter if I'm wi-fi only?
+1 for me too.. Getting the same error. Bought mine new from Ebay, shipped to Canada. Obviously won't be activated on Sprint (was never planning to). Just use WiFi.

Yep - I was able to get the HTC software update with no trouble. Just making sure the other updates aren't critical for non-Sprint use.

Well not having a Sprint Data Plan I couldn't say what those updates have consisted of.
We would need a View user with Data Plan to comment

Go into the development forum and look for godzson's post with the official update. If you look at my posts too I already put a link up from my dropbox with the update. Once you get it you can do it manually.

Downloading HoneyComb 3.2.1 Update via HTC Software Update
I got my View from Bid Allies on eBay and the Fujistu Stylus (from their website) running on WFi. No activation with Sprint.
Just went into Settings>Software Update > HTC Software Update > and there it was the Honeycomb OS update waiting for me on all its 216.96MB glory. The View was never rooted and I have no plans to do so at the moment.
Gingerbread is running very smoothly for me though. We'll see how well Honeycomb runs.

This thread is about updating the firmware / profile / PRL...
---------- Post added at 01:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:20 PM ----------
Correction for me...I'm actually getting error code 1012. I'm running stock HC.
No Sprint Activation, updated with HC, no error code
I got my HTC View on 1saleaday. I did one software update (Version 1.22.651.2) prior to the HC update. This was before the HC update came out. Installed the HC update (Version 2.23.651.1) without a hitch. I never rooted my device nor activated any data plan with Sprint. It took about 10 to 15 minutes for the update to download over wifi, install and auto-reboot.
I hope this info helps somebody out.

Did you get any solution to this. I am in the same boat. HTC update says that no updates exists and other link Profile, prl etc. gives the 1233 error. Bought it from 1sad. So there is no updates waiting for me
Thx

Regular software updates such as HC - work just fine
Still no sign of ICS for UK?
I can't check myself as i have a unlocked boot!
Yep, still waiting
No sign of it yet mate

Really? I got mine 2 days ago. I am on UK t-mobile.
When you do get it, one tip. Once it is installed, reboot then leave the phone alone for 20 minutes or so. The walkman app would constantly crash for me. It was only when I looked a the debug logs that I found it was rebuilding the media database. This took ages.
I miss the volume on the lock screen, access to the settings menu from the menu key on the launcher, but otherwise its all good. Oh, and Gallery is now called Albums. Took me a few minutes to work that out.

can you upload ftf please
Sim free UK.. no sign of ICS, TBH the phone works very well with 2.3.7.. more concerned with the wee blotches that pop up every so often.

so where does that leave us folk who bought sim-free handsets?
i'm actually with t-mobile, but i bought the handset sim-free because i was so sick of my wildfire s breaking down....actually went to t-mobile to try and buy this handset from them and upgrade my contract at the same time, and got told that there was nothing i could do until my contract was up next october (2013), which is why i bought it sim-free :s

Same here, and it's not as if there's any bloat in the tmobile firmware only the tmobile app that you can download from the play store
there ain't a Generic NL ICS either
I checked this morning and no update was available, but plugged my phone in this afternoon and it says an update is now available (I have already updated to .75, so it must be ICS?). It goes through the process of downloading the update, but at the install stage it says no software found! Very frustrating...
Edit - I'm using PC Companion, and the problem seems to be that as soon as it starts to install the update the phone shuts down and loses connection to the PC, so the update fails...

Yep, with 3. The new software version is 6.1.A.0.452, which I've just checked definitely is ICS. SO frustrating I just can't get the update to install. The update downloaded fine, but when it gets to the actual update stage the phone shuts down and the update fails.
So 3 are actually good for some things! I actually wrote to David Dyson this morning asking to be released from my contract - they have messed me about massively - broke my phone then in comical fashion failed to fix it, and then offered me a HTC Chacha or HTC Desire C in it's place!!! I would have laughed if I wasnt so offended!
Edit: 7th time is a charm and I now have ICS on generic UK with 3...
SEUS should work most of the time, PC companion sucks... :/

Before I checked the forum I searched google for a UK update and found that Customers on the network 3 can now upgrade to ics. I upgraded manually using the Switzerland flashtool thingy bob. It's slower at times but does look a lot better

i've tried sony update service (the one where you switch phone off, hold volume while connecting usb), tried pcc, tried ota from the phone, always says i'm up to date.
I bought mine from Samsung.com and noticed that it says "Unlocked by Samsung" on the box. I don't know if that means the device isn't actually a Tmobile unit though. Anyways, Samsung Pay doesn't work for me. When I install it from Okay I Store, it says this device isn't compatible. When I install it from the Galaxy App store, it tells me a new update is available and the new features are "Brand new UX" and when I press OK, it just closes the app. Is it just because the phone isn't officially released yet or is it a software issue? Thanks.
If it says unlocked by Samsung you do not have the TMobile version.

Mine is SMG965U1ZKAX. I ordered a T-Mobile Midnight Black S9+ From Samsung.com. Everything about it seems like it's an unlocked model. I don't even get the T-Mobile splash screen when I reboot the phone. If it really is the unlocked version, I'm guessing that model hasn't been updated to support Samsung Pay yet. I'm not sure if it's a good thing or a bad thing that I got the unlocked version instead of the T-Mobile version.
I went back to my order receipt/emails and checked to make sure I even ordered the T-Mobile model. Turns out, it's the Unlocked model. I know for a fact I chose the T-Mobile option but I guess not. Was the Unlocked S8+ compatible with Samsung Pay?
If you do not have a T-Mobile folder with T-Mobile apps on your phone, it means is not from T-Mobile.

I'm having the EXACT SAME ISSUE, but I'm on the unlocked U.S. version direct from Samsung on AT&T. It's been driving me crazy. Made the rounds on both AT&T's and Samsung's customer service phone lines and online chats. No help.
Any solution?

Turns out I do ha e the unlocked model. Haven't found a solution for samsung pay yet, though.
You guys probably have to wait for actually launch date I'm pretty sure this happened with the note 7... They don't push all updates unfortunately until launch dates for some services. So I'm sure within the next 3 days it'll be updated to support the unlocked variants

What doesn't work? My app launches and it allows me to sign in and add a card. I have not tried to use it as of yet. My phone is unlocked Coral Blue and has a Verizon SIM in it. I got the phone at 1030 and turned it on. About an 1 hour ago a update came. I didn't add Samsung Pay until after the update.
I got my unlocked from Samsung S9+ delivered today (3/14). With a Verizon SIM I was able to add a card to Samsung Pay and use it successfully at Best Buy.

Here's a link to a screen shot I took of the issue. It says Not compatible. It only shows this if I download from the Play Store.
https://imgur.com/KPwoDl9
I get this when I install from Galaxy Apps. When I press the OK or Cancel button, the Samsung pay just force closes. There's no updates for Samsung Pay in the Galaxy App store or the Play Store either.
https://imgur.com/NtTBTZG
I did get a software update this morning which I installed, but Samsung Pay still gives me the same errors. I called Samsung Pay Support a few hours ago and the guy basically said it's a known issue with the S9 and S9+ and that there should be an update pushed out "Soon" that'll fix it. Other than a factory reset, I think my only option is to wait. I'd rather not reset my phone unless I absolutely have to because I hate getting things set up again, lol.
Edit: I should probably add, I can't even set up Samsung Pay. I get those error messages any time I try to launch the app.
There's an update in the Galaxy App store and it's working for me now. Another user on reddit let me know about it.
I just bought a used Tmobile Note 8 from Swappa. It arrived running Nougat and when I try to update, it says the device is up to date. The seller stated "Tmobile Version that has been fully paid for and unlocked. Was unlocked with Device Unlock application that come on most tmobile devices. Application automatically deletes, once unlocked."
Would the act of unlocking mess anything up with the software updates? Would they still come from T-mobile? I tried using Kies and Smartswitch to see if there was an update, but Kies isn't supported anymore and Smartswitch isn't telling me there's an update available.
Thanks.
They dont always release teh update to everyone right away. its released in stages.
You can always manually download them (from updato) and install them through odin.
Did you verify from Tmobile that the phone is not under financial obligation and is in fact unlocked through a carrier and not the seller himself?
Always do that when considering buying a used phone and never expect the seller to be telling the truth.
Verizon Devices
Get a trade-in appraisal through Verizon - you will get a message that the device is not eligible for trade-in if it is still being financed through Verizon:
http://www.verizonwireless.com/device-recycle/
Sprint Devices
Use Ting's device check - it will fail if the device is still being financed through Sprint:
https://ting.com/byod
TMobile Devices
http://www.t-mobile.com/verifyIMEI.aspx
AT&T Devices
https://www.att.com/deviceunlock/#/
Enter "No" when asked if you are an AT&T customer. Then input the IMEI and you will get the message below if the device is not paid off yet:
"This device isn’t eligible to be unlocked now because all of the installment payments have not been paid."

I keep getting "hotlinking is not cool" and won't let me download.
I still haven't gotten the update either. At the store they suggested that theming or other apps could stop the updates, which seemed like bs, but I had already uninstalled all substratum layers in preparation for the update anyhow. I've tried smart switch as well but nothing is showing the update. My phone is not unlocked or rooted and running BRA9. Is it really just taking them this long to roll out?

I bought a note 8 from TMobile February 22. I am in the Pacific NW, still on 7.1.1 and software update says I am up to date, not sure why but there it is.
Me either, Im in NW Indiana & chicken out when I saw I would have to downgrade to BRA8 to go to Oreo (on BRA9)
Got the February security patch this morning. Hair under 200 megs. Unlocked S10e, T-Mobile.
Does gesture navigation work on 3rd party laincher with feb security update?
Hopefully when AT&T pushes out the February update, the darn bugs will be fixed. I am sick of my keyboard just disappearing to the bottom of the screen at random times and the "in the pocket unlock bug" which appears on the lock screen because my phone somehow thinks it was in my pocket when it wasn't.
What's the name of the February update? BTA2?
G973FXXU4BTA8 available for region AUT (OXM).
