Hi guys,
I rooted a while back (S-OFF) and currently have TWRP v2.4.1.0 installed.
The OTA update keep popping up every few hours, and after denying it a few times, it says "no sim card" and I have to reboot or cycle the SIM card tray. (It's getting really irritating!)
I've finally given in and am looking for full guide(s) to do the following:
>Backup as much as possible
>Get full, legit OTA update incl. radio
>Keep root access & s-off
>re-install custom recovery if needed
Searching didn't turn up much, so any suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated.
Thank you

If you are already unlocked and s-offed, just take the updates. They only way to lose s-off is to manually turn it back on.
Not sure how to go about it, cause when I hit accept, it reboots into TWRP..
I believe you need stock recovery, locked bootloader, and be as stock as possible, before you can take the OTA. You will not lose your s-off in the process.

Thanks for the help,
Flashed stock recovery and updated; then re-unlocked.. now I seem to have lost root..
tl;dr: Unlocked, S-Off, & on latest OTA, need root..

go back into twrp and try to exit, it might tell you it isnt rooted and ask you to root.
also there is a guide somewhere in these forums for root, just ignore the s-off and unlock stuff and just do the root section.

I have a question please:
I have uproot it the EVO 3D, two moths back, and I have get this two updates, (but unsuccessfully fail) not sure if I need them
Android 2.3.4
HTC 3.0
Software 2.08.651.3

2- OTA_Shooter_S_Sprint_WWE_2.17.651.5-2.08.651.3_release_2353522hivy65lggcg2tmb.zip
How to update?
or
Do I need them?
PS. How to turn the S-on to S-off
I was reading on one of the posts.."Is it possible to get s-off, root, recovery - keep the stock ROM and still take OTA updates?".......
This question is in relation to the s-off or S-on.
thanks for your patients.
It all depends on if you are rooted or not, and if you plan to root in the future.
The updates are not "needed", you phone will run just fine without them.
If you are rooted, NEVER take an OTA update. Download the stock rooted rom with that version, and flash it.
If you are unrooted, you can just take the update by going to settings-system updates-software update. However, if you want to root, do it before updating, as updating could screw you with the locked hboot.

Ok I am rooted, some one did for me, the S-on/ Hboot -1.5
I keep getting the updates via OTA, and others, even if I update does nothing.
You mention the .."stock root rom" not sure how to make that move, I appreciated your suggestions.

That's because you can't and shouldn't take OTA updates when you are rooted. Every single root guide tells you this.

Find the latest stock rom in the Development section, and flash it just like any other rom.
In order to take the update, you would have to re-lock your phone, since your friend rooted yours using the HTC unlocking method. If you re-lock your phone, you can get the updates, but would have to go through the rooting process again. In some cases, I've read, it doesn't work.
If you want the updates, then search the Dev threads for a stock version of the newest update and flash it to your phone, if you are wanting them. Otherwise, I'd leave well-enough alone, if not having problems with your phone.

No I not sure about the updates! I was thinking that one of those updates was to remove the 'Carrier IQ'.
So I like the my phone is rooted, but I like to remove the Carrier IQ also.
Another reason why did the rooted is 'free wife' that gives me, that is the only web we have.
If any other suggestions please send it my way all are welcome.

Pretty sure rooting does not give you a free wife. Also, you have hboot 1.5 so you cannot have s-off. Also, many of the ROMs available for you to flash have carrier IQ removed already. One mo gain, Never update your phone if its rooted.

So like most users, I was very excited to hear about the ICS leak by Football since I've been waiting MONTHS for some sort of development on that.
Getting impatient on waiting for CM9 and Evervolv builds for the Amaze, I really wanted to try this new leak for T-Mobile. So I figured that in order to do that, I must get S-Off.
It seemed like a tedious process so I've been holding it off for a while. Now that I've got a copper wire and everything, I wanted to do the deed once and for all.
So I accidentally flashed a stock rom (which I thought was a good thing since the instructions said I needed a stock rom), but I seem to have lost root access. Superuser runs, but battery calibration says I need to have root first and Titanium Backup doesn't work. However, my phone still says unlocked and I can still run ClockworkMod Recovery. The S-Off program tells me that there's an error. Is there anyone that can help?

Well you are on T-mobile so you have two choices here. you can S-off if you want to have total freedom or you can revert your phone to stock and relock your bootloader and flash it and then re-unlock again. but remember flashign this without s-off may prevent you from getting s-off later on.

Well, I can't flash the PH85IMG without S-Off, right? Because on the HBoot screen, it would load the file but i wouldn't be asked if I wanted to install it. So I had no idea what to do. I thought I had to have S-Off to install it. Does this really mean I've lost root even though my phone says unlocked and I can run Clockworkmod?

Pretty sure you just use fastboot to lock, open a command prompt with your phone attached in debugging mode, type in fastboot oem lock, then install the stock rom listed in the development section. (If I am wrong on this, someone please feel free to correct me.)
Okay, guys, I apologize for what I'm about to ask, but I am now completely lost in the Global Update thread, so I needed to start fresh.
I was rooted and on stock 3.14.605.13. I kept getting annoying update messages from Verizon and tried several forum suggestions to turn them off. Finally I just decided to try to get the update. I was able to unroot and install an RUU back to 3.14.605.12, but now I'm completely stuck. :crying: I'm getting the same Service Unavailable message as others who try to get the small .13 update.
I have downloaded the 3.14.605.13 update zip but can't decipher how to get it installed since the Global Update Thread is now so jumbled.
If anyone has the time to helps us NOOBS (I think I saw several others in my situation), could you please give a step by step rundown of what we need to do? Please start from step 1. For example, do I need to root again now before I can get up to .13?
Finally, if I do get to .13, can I just unroot and get the new global update via Verizon?

***RELOCKED*** (I did the HTC unlock with a pin code when I originally rooted, but I "unrooted" via a one-click program, so I don't know the correct answer to the lock question). I relocked the bootloader via sdk if that helps.

you should be good to do the update.
ruu using this zip http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...ull-ruu-build-4-03-605-2-for-the-htc-rezound/
(place on root of sd card, rename PH98IMG.zip)
it will run 2 times. once with be bootloader and recovery, second time will be the full rom.
this will get you to stock OTA should show up a little while after its all installed and connected to the network.
EDIT:
If updated doesnt show up in a day you should be able to update with this zip: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=40768590&postcount=35
Okay, I think you're going to be able to get me there ... but ...
I downloaded the zip file and renamed it to PH98IMG.zip. I copied it to the root of both the internal and external cards since I wasn't sure which it needed to be on.
Now how do I execute the RUUx2s? The last one I did to get back to .12 was an .exe file, so that was easy.
I do have SKD and can open a command prompt, so you don't have to go that far back in instructions.

once on root of external sd card. reboot the phone into bootloader
power off device hold vol - and power till you see hboot
hboot will detect it and run for you.
make sure you have 70+ battery before trying this. and do not pull the battery or loose power or it will birck.
Worked like a charm. A million thanks to you.

If I need to end up doing that manually, do I rename it (and if so to what?) copy it to root and then run hboot?

Hi
I need a little information. I have been looking on the site but cant seem to figure what i need.
I would like to get CM11 or Avatar 5.0.6 on my incredible 4g but it keeps failing.
I have a unlocked bootloader S-Off and TWRP for my recovery. I guess my question is, how can i get this to load.
The directions stated to install the latest OTA but that will lock my phone back up. The directions also stated they were installing it with CWM.
So my question is do I need to change from TWRP to CWM to get the install to work and do I really need to update my phone and lose my unlocked phone?
OR is there a way to update the phone without re locking it?
Thanks

this i wll give you the new radio and power management and secute bootloader.
but it won't affect s-off or the boot image or the recovery.
you will need cwm for cm11 but i think you can switch back after the install
I didn't
If you have the latest TWRP 2.6.3.0h it works with CM11 and is supposed to have better support for SELinux.

There is a tread on the firmware. If your phone is already s-off, the firmware won't undo it. CM11 is using the radio libraries that go with the new radio firmware.
These are the steps i took to get the Kit Kat update.
I couldnt get the update OTA like most people and i was completely stock.
So if you are in a similar position these steps may help.
DO AT YOUR OWN RISK!
1. Unlock your bootloader and get root access. I did by following these instructions from this video.

2. Gain S-OFF by following these instructions from this video.

3. After you have completed these steps successfully head over to @clsA thread and download the AT&T 4.4.2 OTAPkg.zip and the
stock Recovery_Cingular_US_3.17.502.3.img. Link to the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2659374
4. Place the downloaded .zip on the root your phone storage.
5. follow the steps in @clsA post and flash Recovery_Cingular_US_3.17.502.3.img via fastboot.
6. Navigate to recovery from fastboot on your HTC ONE. If you see "Mount SDCard failed" ignore it. goto to phone storage and locate the update.zip and flash it.

If you're stock, you should be able to get the update just by changing the date. I brought my phone back to stock (3.17.502.3) then just kept hitting Software Update. If it didn't update, advance the date and try again. After a few date changes, the update was offered.

Anyone know if there are issues with S-Off and rooting since the update? I am 100% stock, non rooted, never installed a rom. Its been stock since the day I got it. I planned on getting the AT&T update to 4.4.2, rooting, making an update then testing some roms.
I know with other phones the update screwed some things up so I didn't know if rooting/s-off were an issue since the update.
Thanks ll!

Tried that with no luck. Had to do a factory reset because I went to far, and my OTA check was in -300 hours.
You guys are forgetting that to be able to update the OTA, you need to have an ACTIVE at&t sim card inserted to your phone. I think this is the reason for all the confusion around since not everybody lives in the US
Downgrade to 4.3
OK, so I was able to upgrade but now I messed it up trying to patch default.xml. :crying:
I am trying to revert to the 4.3 with RRU but I get error 155.
I am S-Off, HBOOT 1.56.
I tried with bootloader re-locked, unlocked, locked. I tried with stock recovery and with ClockWM recovery both locked and unlocked.
I also tried to re-apply the patch with stock recover but it fails verification...
Any ideas how do I go back or fix this?
Thanks

OK, so I was able to upgrade but now I messed it up trying to patch default.xml. :crying:
I am trying to revert to the 4.3 with RRU but I get error 155.
I am S-Off, HBOOT 1.56.
I tried with bootloader re-locked, unlocked, locked. I tried with stock recovery and with ClockWM recovery both locked and unlocked.
I also tried to re-apply the patch with stock recover but it fails verification...
Any ideas how do I go back or fix this?
Thanks
Adrian

The BEST way to make sure that you can run the RUU, whether it be the ATT version, or the Dev Edition is to make sure you downgrade the HBOOT to 1.44. You will never see than error again. No problems at all. Why on Earth though would you want the ATT version, when you can Dev it, and take the 4.4.2 OTA with no carrier BS?

Thank you.
Actually that is what I did. After downgrading HBoot I was able to use the RRU.
Unfortunately I use my phone for work with Mobileiron and will flag it to IT if I'm rooted. I have tried a couple of workaround so but did not work very well. Every time I try to monkey with it IT starts getting emails every 30 min saying my device is not compliant and I am rooted.... So my best solution is to unlock boot loader and flash mods there. Which got me into this trouble....
I can't navigate to the recovery after I flashed Recovery_Cingular_US_3.17.502.3.img to install the OTA. I've tried going to recovery mode and then pressing Power + Vol. Up to no avail. Any help?
