I was pushed the KK update for TMo HTC one. The update was dowloaded, after that it verifies the contents of the firmware. It is failing saying "Download is corropted' and asks to dowload again. I downloaded it 3 times , everytime i am getting the same error. I soft reseted the phone and checked and downloaded again. No luck.
Later i killed the 'updater' app and cleared its app cache (some 20kb of data was there) via the setting-> apps-> All- > Updater. Now the in setting when i check for the update it dosen't show me the 4.4 update available
Is there any way by which i can update it via the PC ? I could not find any tool from HTC for it, sync manager dosen't do firmware update.
P.S : Phone is on 4.3 , never rooted, no custom roms. Just network unlocked via network code from T-MObile.

You have a couple options I can think of. Back up all your data using adb. Copy your internal storage and paste it onto your computer, thereby making a back up of all your internal data. Use the tmobile RUU to take your phone back to full stock using this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1672425 . Download and update your phone. Using adb again, restore your apps and settings. Repaste from your comp, all your internal storage again.
Second option is to download from the General forum the OTA file. Paste it into the update folder on your phone. Then reboot your phone and it should see the update and allow you to update hopefully. However, you would need someone to tell you which folder to put it into. I actually copied it from my phone but I forgot which folder it came from.
Any idea you could remember it ?

I did a system restart after backup. Initally when i checked in the Setting-Software Update it was showing no updates. Later after couple of hours i tried over 3G , it said update available. I guess i was just lucky..
Anyways downloaded over Wifi . Went smooth.

I was prompted with a Software Update version 2.18.707.5 (Android 4.2.2 with Sense 5),
I downloaded the update,
The Update Package was downloaded to the Download folder in Internal SD Card,
In order to take the backup of the Update Package I accidentally moved instead of copying to another location,
After that I copied the package back to its original location which was the Download folder,
I ran the Update Check again to see if it detects the restored Update Package in the Download folder,
But it didn't and instead prompted me to download the Software Update again.
I don't want to download it again as I downloaded it using mobile data, also I don't have any other internet facility available other than that.
Is there anything that I can do besides downloading the entire Update again?
Moreover what precautionary steps should I take before running the Update like reset to factory defaults, etc?
Device details
HTC One X+ (India)

Never Rooted
Hi Vivek,
Make sure you backup all important data. I've had a couple of friends who updated their phone and then it did not restart. It gets stuck at the HTC logo after installing the update. So most importantly backup your data.
Also on a side note, if possible, could you please upload and share the OTA zip file which was downloaded?
Thanks.
I bought a TCL S720T from China about two weeks ago. It has 4.2.2 with 1GB RAM and 8GB ROM and is based on MT6592. When I first got the phone, the internal storage was displayed as about 5.9GB out of which most (about 5.85GB) was available. I would like to mention here that when I connected my phone to the PC thru a USB cable, the total internal storage was also shown as 5.9GB on PC.
I did the following to the phone and now I am in trouble... plz help
As I bought it from China, it did not have Google apps. I rooted the phone to get these installed. During rooting I deleted some useful original apps.
I tried to restore the phone to factory settings but the deleted apps did not return (I do not know what did I do wrong). I started to search for phone's stock ROM but could not find it. Also all information on the web is in Chinese and that too no accessible from where I live.
After a couple of days, I found a ROM on "lewaos" website. It was translated from Chinese to "S720T Le Frog bottom package. Zip" and the website claimed that it was the original ROM. I thought that it is the actual ROM by TCL so I flashed it using SP_Flash_Tool_v5.1343.01. When the system rebooted, the radio was not working as the baseband was missing, however, the total internal storage was shown as about 4.90GB. I just want to mention here that I never backed up my original ROM (bad on my part).
There was another ROM update given on the same website for installation using external SD card. So, I installed the ROM, but this time the total internal storage wasshown as 1.09GB out of which 1GB was available. I got worried and tried to find other ROMs to fix the issue. I found some ROMs from website named "needrom" and tried them too. Whenever I use flash tool to load the ROM which I got from LEWA website, the phone shows 4.9GB internal storage but the phone radio does not work. However, as soon as I install any ROM using SD card, the internal storage is shown close to 1.1GB. I have even downloaded the official ROM update from "tclmobile" website and installed it using SD card, but the internal storage is still shown as 1.1GB. Also, whenever I connect my phone to PC thru the USB cable, the total internal storage is shown as 1.1GB out of which about 1GB is free.
While installing ROM thru SD card, I have always adopted the process of wiping the factory settings and cache in the recovery mode.
I would also like to mention here that during the process of loading ROMs, I lost the radio operation due to invalid IMEI, which I later restored using AT+... commands (thanks to xda-developer forums).
Having said all that let me summarize my problems:-
I have lost the original Stock ROM of my phone and no support is available outside China.
Whenever I install ROMs through SD card, the internal storage is 1.1GB, I want my actual internal storage ie 5.9GB back.
Please help me to fix my phone
Thanks
Maybe we can help each other i have a backup may work for you...
Hey what up dude,
I have exact phone, and similar issue. no backup, but I have a horrible boot loop for one MONTH now, I am going crazy, even the guys at china-devices.com are not much help. (But may help your problem).
I can't backup but i can access stock recovery and NEED to install CWM recovery via SD as the bootloop just blocks all attempts to connect the phone to the PC. I cant see my phone data but i know i have your ROM and model, using TCL factoryware. Octo the whole nine yards.
Another long time friend has a TCL S720T and he sent me a zip of a ROM backup he made. I can pass it to you via wetransfer or email attachment.
Note that his backup is UN-rooted so it should work OK, and be 'pure' maybe some factory crapware he wiped off it. and you will likely need to fix the IMEI issue, (or maybe not, and I am a newb so can't help you there, yet).
In return, could you tell me how you fixed your issue, what exact tools you used, and so on? Sepecially if used MTK driod tools what version and SP flashtools what version any and all info will be great thanks.
There is an app you can istall that shows you which apk are system apps and not to touch, i had it installed, but i am lord of the idiots, and went ahead and deleted the chinese keyboard, hey presto, one really great phone I had almost totally customised my way, now in a month-long boot loop and may never recover.
Wow. It was amazing to hear that someone else also has this phone but was sad to know that you are also facing problems. Please contact me on [email protected]. I will first try to resolve your issues then will post those solutions on xda.
By the way, I have resolved all my issues and my phone is up and running like anything. Thanks to android lovers all over the world. I will try to give you solutions one by one.
SOLVED! & Thanks Muiz!
SOLVED with this tutuorial... all credit to the OP, Muiz, I'm only passing it forward, this is a GREAT phone, hope to see more users soon!
If we address your first problem of not being able to boot the phone at all, I will propose to go to this link (use any English translator if you do not read Chinese) ... you may use www.micrsofttranslator.com
http://bbs.lewaos.com/learn-s720t.html
You will find these steps in a tutorial.
1, download the ROM and put it into the SD card root directory (on computer operation)
Download LeWa_TCL_S720T_JB2_ROM__XXXXX.zip ( from bbs.lewaos.com) and copy ROM package in zip format to phone external SD card root directory.
2, download the Flash tool latest version and unzip it to the desktop (computer operation)
Download SP_Flash_Tool_v5.1352.01, and extract it to your computer desktop.
3, download music frog end of packet (on computer operation) lewaos.com
Download end of Le frog, S720T package. zip and extract it to your computer desktop. lewaos.com
4, download and install the Flash drive Download MT65xx flash drive _ automatically installed. rar (lewaos.com ), and extract it to your computer desktop, double-click the InstallDriver.exe folder is automatically installed
If you desire to install any un-rooted original backup you have, to your phone, do not download the file in step 1.
To make the tutorial short; first install the drivers as mentioned in step 4. Then extract the file mentioned in step 3 in a folder on your desktop. Extract and start the flash tools utility and give the path of the folder you copied on your desktop. There is going to be a sort of file with name “MT6592_Android_scatter.txt”. Use its path to flash the ROM.
You will have to wait for some time, but the Flash tools will install the LEWA ROM on your phone.

can this be rooted with stock rom on it
what does the different roms look like, photos please
ok guys i have tcl s720 without the "t" whats the difference? i went to the chinese website & had a look around with an english translator & i see downloads for s720t but none for s720 .
i recently changed my rom from what it arrived with as play store didnt work & push notifications so i flashed successfully this rom
wwwdotneedromdotcom/download/tcl-720t-cm11-v2-w200s-lstyle-port/
this is ported from THL w200s which works well just a few slight issues with storage etc but better than what i had as play store works
what im also looking for is there actually a fully working rom for the s720 ? & where can i get a fully working stock rom for this phone? yes i have searched tirelessly but roms i checkout seem to have quite a few bugs so im just looking for a good stable one.
apart from few issues this phone im more than satisfied with

This is a prerooted stock ROM of the OK2 update. It also has the sd card fix patch applied.
This ROM requires installing a custom recovery on your device, which will trip Knox.
All operations are done at your own risk
I would advise against flashing the EFS partition unless you know yours is corrupted (i don't think many people have that issue). The Boot, System, and Modem partitions all need to be flashed though.
If installing over Kitkat, a factory reset will most likely be required as lollipop installs apps differently. Also be prepared to lose all files on internal memory.
I would recommend backing up your OS before flashing. Also it wouldn't hurt to backup app data to make reinstalling apps easier.
Here's the thread for twrp:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-3-sprint/general/how-to-root-note-3-lollipop-t3089382
To install the ROM, extract the 7zip file to "/ExtSdCard/twrp/backups/{serial number}/"
using your favorite software (I made the file with ES File Explorer on Android).
Enter recovery mode (Volume up + Home button while poering on), and select "Restore" from the list of options.
There is a option to select internal or external storage to Restore from.
Select the OK2 stock rooted backup file. (Un)Check the appropriate boxes.
Restore the image to install the new OS
Here's the ROM

I don't suppose you have another link? It fails to download every time I try.*Edit* I didn't have drive installed just flashed cm nightly forgot to install it :silly: thanks. And keep up the good work!
Not right now. I know youl'll receive two or three different errors, but you gotta click "continue" or "download" or "download anyway" to get the file. If it continues to be a problem, I can setup a torrent server for it when i get home tonight.
It might also help to download to a pc, or on a Wi-Fi connection. I've had issues with downloads failing to complete using my phone with big files.

I do not know if there's a way to do so with to do so with TouchWiz, since I haven't used it since before the Kitkat update.

I do not know. I use a third-party app for my hotspot. If you have hotspot services with your provider, the native one should work, but I have not tested that theory.
If you're not signed up for hotspot services, check here:

or the "Wi-Fi Tether Router" app on the play store works very well for me (since this is a rooted ROM):
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.snclab.wifitetherrouter&hl=en
Just have to remember with that app to turn the device's Wi-Fi on before activating the hotspot.
Is anyone else having wifi calling issues with this rom? At first I got the error 16 switch message when trying calls of any kind off wifi, but wifi calling worked. Then I called sprint and they worked their magic to correct the error 16 message but I've had wifi calling issues ever since. Calls start and immediately drop on wifi calling.

I personally never had that problem. But I did notice if I tried to download a big file, or other devices on the network were using a LOT of data, the Wi-Fi calling would disconnect. Sometimes using the Bluetooth could cause problems since it uses the same antenna as the Wi-Fi... But I only had issues with that when transferring data with one or the other.
Yep, I know it can be picky, I have used it for years. This is the first time is disconnects immediately on every wifi call. Nothing has changed on my network. Comcast 75mbps, wireless AC router. It started with this rom, which by the way I love otherwise.

If you have successfully unzipped the file while the device is in normal operation. Then after you have booted into recovery mode (twrp) you should be able to locate the unzipped file with twrp. If it doesn't flash (Install) then something else is wrong. Is your phone already rooted ? If so what OS are you running now ? If not, You may want to root with supersu first. Do you have an SD Card installed in your device? If so, using a root file manager app like Root Explorer copy and paste the unzipped OK2 OS file to the Sd Card and boot back into twrp recovery and locate the unzipped file and flash from the SD Card.

This requires a custom recovery. I used TWRP to make the backup, and used ES File Explorer to zip it. If you don't have a custom recovery, you need a computer to install one. There is a completely stock ROM available if you don't want to trip Knox and keep your device completely stock, but that does require a computer.

To get rid of Hands Free Activation you just need to delete the \system\priv-app\HtcOMADM_SPCS folder in twrp
1. Boot into TWRP
2. Mount System
3. Use the file explorer and navigate to \system\priv-app\HtcOMADM_SPCS
4. Press the tick in the bottom right
5. Select delete
6. Unmount System
7. Reboot phone.

Where are you getting this from? "C:\Users\Babar>C:\Users\Babar\Downloads\twrp.img"
Just google installing TWRP on M9 and you should get loads of guides. If the image you're getting is genuinely corrupt you're going to have to check your sources as the ones downloaded from the main twrp pages are usually fine.

Use caution. You can go thru batch settings, select remove all apps and then while in there, click deselect all. Then go thru and pick what you want to remove (EXTREME CAUTION you can remove an app or so that will require you to flash the rom again)
Other So Called "ROOT app remover" apps backup the app before you delete it and then decides for you if it should be reinstalled for you, and you cant delete them.

I recommended going into your settings. Apps. And just select the apps that are sprint related & force stop them, and then disable each app individually. After they are disabled clear the data & cache of each one. Then they'll no longer be displayed or asked to be updated. This is without having to install TwRp.

Iv tried a couple of apps from the play store but they dont appear to work, still get the same message from the banking app. Failing that, how easy would it be to 'unroot' the device and would this have any repercussions on the current functionality of my new phone?

There is an excellent backup system within MIUI so I'd recommend using that before any install.
If you go through those instructions, nothing much should change. The Play Store is included within the firmware so that's no issue. I'm not sure what the latest stable version is but I'm sure that link goes through to the most up to date version?

Is it because the PC suite isnt suitable for Marshmallow based ROMs?

From what I remember, it doesn't go into the root folder, it goes in 'downloaded_rom' or something along those lines.
You may need to install the developer ROM then go back to stable for it to work correctly but I'm pretty sure as long as you get the firmware in the correct folder it should work.

Well the instructions on the link state:
"Step 1: Put the downloaded ROM into internal storage (not inside any folder)." - hence why i put it on the root.
However iv tried choosing both the ROM inside my 'Downloads' folder as well as the one on the root of the phone, still get the same message!?
