[Q] HTC One update 4.3 - T-Mobile HTC One (M7)

Hallo every one.
I am an owner of the htc One. I've rooted this device and had an other rom flashen over it. It now runs with AOSP with Jelly bean 4.2. 2
This morning I got a notification that the system update was downloaded and ready for install. The update was around 128mb big.
I pressed on the install notification and my phone rebooted and then came up with the fastboot / safeboot menu. (don't know which one excactly But you guys know what I mean I hope)
And then it tried to install But it reported soms errors and failed to install.
Does anybody know where it stores this system update or where to find it on my phone?
And no, the notification was not an advertisment or something similair. It was one from htc.

in order to accept a OTA you have to be on stock recovery and your bootloader must be relocked IF YOU ARE S-OFF'd use revone to LOCK instead of RELOCK or you can even remove the tamper flag from your device. keep in mind accepting the update might make it to where you may have some rather irritating issues later on
updates are in the cache partition if im not mistaken

Thanx for your reply. I was asking this because I believen that there isn't a 4.3 update for the htc One yet.
I've searched the cache folder(s) But could not find the downloaded system update.

on tmobile, no there is not yet a 4.3 or even a 4.2 update for the HTC one yet. officially atleast.

Thanx for your answer. But I know that there is not yet an official update. That's why I asked it here. Because it got a notification that there is an update for my phone. 4.3 and I Just wanna know if it's still on my phone somewhere. So that I can share it with everyone.

Can you be more specific about which ROM you are running? If you are running an AOSP 4.2.2 ROM you should not be receiving update notifications from HTC.

same thing here
HTC One Google Edition Rooted unlocked with TWRP 2.6 , not S-Off'd (Hboot 1.54) , received System Update 4.3 update to reboot and install.
Clicked on it
reboot it to recovery, and i manually rebooted to system.
No update was installed.
any thoughts?

The GPE model did just recently get a 4.3 update but you have to be "stock" unrooted for it to work

I have added a screenshot with this post. I received another notification that there is an update for my phone.
And which AOSP rom I run? I actually would not know it. Where to find these specs?

AT&T Software Update

I have rooted HTC One, I noticed a new software update was released by AT&T, and I wondered if it I updated it, would my root be gone? I tried to update it and after downloading the update, my phone restarted and booted into TWRP recovery and I rebooted and there was no update installed. Are any rooted HTC One users experiencing the same problem? What should I do, should i just forget about the OTA updates?

Anytime you root the phone it changes the stock recovery so when the OTA tries to run it fails because the recovery needed to do it is the stock one. Just wait for someone to post a updated ota that works with twrp.
For the most part, updates will be baked into roms so you won't need to take the OTA

On top of stock recovery, you need to have all stock apps present on the phone. They can be frozen, but they must be there. The first thing any official OTA does it check the signatures of all .apks it expects to find on the device--if any are missing, the update will abort. I learned today that when you unlock your bootloader, several HTC-specific applications are automatically deleted from the phone and this will prevent the phone from accepting the OTA. You'll need to either A) replace those apks, or B) flash a stock NAND backup, flash stock recovery, do the update, then re-flash custom recovery and continue on from there.

I installed it and it worked great. I have a unlocked bootloader but I am not rooted.
AT&T update file name and location?
Same experience. If I knew the location and file downloaded through AT&T Software Update, perhaps I could install it through TWRP. Anyone know? Tried?

Many thanks for all your help.
One question:
I have an HTC One (ATT) - SW Ver 1.26.502.10, bootloader unlocked, rooted, bloatware erased.
If I flash CM 10.1 - does this include the latest OTA update.
Many thanks

[Q] the proper way to update

Hey, so I received and update for my att HTC one, it's already rooted I froze and removed some bloatware apps, it has an elemental x kernal on it, and clockworkmod touch, so the update finished downloading and we are now at recovery. I click yes to install it. I let it run for a good ten minutes and when I came back it was stuck on tool fix 01something of that sort..so I rebooted my phone and it was still on the previous software number 1.26.502.10. My question is, what must I do first so I can have a clean OTA Update without it getting stuck because I want a clean 4.2.2 installation when it comes out.

Thanks I'm downloading it now. Will this Gove me stock recovery and the stock kernel?
Yes indeed you will be completely stock. Be aware that this will also wipe your phone.

Need some software help PLEASE!!!

I will start by saying I've never done any updating, rooting, unlocking, etc on any Android device. I used to do some with Blackberry but I've just stayed stock with my Android devices.
I'm currently using the HTC Droid DNA and I chatted online today with an HTC support person regarding my issues. I bought my phone from an individual last year and apparently he must have unlocked the bootloader. I'm running Android Version 4.1.1 and my software # is 1.15.605.4 701RD. Apparently I've missed the last 2 updates and I don't have the option from my phone to manually check for updates. Based on my chat today with HTC there's nowhere online they will allow me to download the updates. They mentioned taking it to a Verizon store but I don't want to do that. I would really like to be able to get the newest software version. Can anyone help me get the newest updates?

If it's rooted, install flash image gui from play store, install twrp recovery and then flash santod040's stock rom, to bring your phone to the latest stuff

Now first thing first. Try a factory reset.. backup your data first. If that doesn't fix the issue comment and Ill tell you what to do next.
Are you trying to be on the latest firmware as it comes from HTC (Stock), or the latest firmware modified with custom options and tweaks as in a custom ROM?

[Q] Error installing a software update

I just received a notice from Verizonwireless that there is a new software update available. So I went ahead and downloaded the update and attempted to install it. After a few seconds a new window opened showing the stupid Android robot laying on its back and the word "error" displayed. Thinking something bogus is going on with my phone I did a factory erase and retried the software update - same results.
Any way to determine what the error is and correct it so I can do the SW update? Out of curiosity I tried using ClockworkMod Rom Manager to install a custom ROM but got the same error indication.
My phone is a Verizon Galaxy S4 with Andriod version 4.3. The baseband version is I545VRUEMK2.
Thanks.

Sounds like your phone has been rooted / modified. This would be why. Samsung + VZW conspire to make it a mess to update officially when you have modded the phone. Just install the update via the PC and Odin. It is more reliable anyway than OTAs. If there is not an official 4.4 Odin version yet, then install the MK2 update that way and then factory reset then take the OTA.
But sounds like you really aren't sure what you are doing because you should NOT be attempting to use ClockWorkMod Rom Manager on a Verizon S4 with that update!! With the whole locked bootloader fiasco, this operation is not permitted as you can only use the SafeStrap recovery system to load custom roms. Really have to read up some more before you get your phone into a situation it might not find it's way out of...

Hi es0tericcha0s - Thanks for pointing out that Rom Manager shouldn't be used on a VZW Galaxy S4. I knew that but totally forgot about that fact.

You're welcome. What you need is here:
http://nasirtech.blogspot.com/2014/04/i545vrufnc5-android-442-kitkat-firmware.html
Or a 100 other places, but that one came up first.
I also find it best to factory reset after the update for best results.

Update 2.15.502.2

Has anyone figured out how to apply this update on a rooted device running "official" ROM? For me the update downloads and reboots to recovery (twrp in my case). The update is not applied.
Thoughts?

you need stock recovery, also i think (not completely sure about this) you have to unroot and maybe even relock your bootloader in order to apply the update.

My phone is completely stock and I still can't download this update. Maybe because I live in Europe... This is awful.

you said, you've got TWRP recovery installed, so your phone's bootloader is definitely unlocked and you've got a custom recovery installed. The update only works if /system partition is completely stock, you've got stock recovery and your bootloader is (re-)locked.
if anything doesn't match your phones CID, the update won't install.
I did not say that. tmknight did.
I have this phone with an AT&T IMEI from China, but the ROM is not from AT&T, I guess its the Erupean version or somenthing... it came unlocked for any GSM company and thats why i bought it... I also know that the bootloades is locked.
I cant update it with the official AT&T ROM cause it does not find it... Im stuck in its Android 4.1.1 slow version, and I see many bugs on it.
Can anyone help me? PLEAAAASSSEEEEE!!!!
