SprintTV

Is there any way we can get Sprint TV back on our phones after we install a new rom? The sprint tv app is deleted from the fresh version when upgrading to custom rom..

Yup you just need the apk. Let me see if I can get it for you.
EDIT: you can find the apk and widget here.

Is there a way to force updates?

Just wondered if there was a way in which I could force an update? I've had to revert back to stock firmware and am currently on 2.3.1. Ive tried the CHECKIN method but nothing happened. Any suggestions guys?

you can manually push the update through recovery located here:

Nope..
Do look for the thread titled '2.3.3 link' though. It's rather easy to apply it manually.

Thanks guys
I have done that method before but I think it screwed up my mms hence I would rather receive it OTA just incase. Are they still pushing out the 2.3.2 update for us that are yet to receive 2.3.3?

Probably not. They would probably send you the version that goes from whatever you're on to 2.3.3 since the Android 2.3.3 URL thread has like three different versions.
The alternative is to flash a custom ROM such as CM7, Axura, GingerS, MoDaCo which features 2.3.3 (unsure about GingerS)

I still don't get the 2.3.3 OTA either. Since I had some problem when I was using N1 and tried to update it manually, I decide to wait for OTA in my NS. I am curious why it can take so long time to push out an OTA?

Two reasons: network strain and damage control in the event of Problems.

I'm waiting for the OTA to come through to my other halves new NS which we got yesterday to update from 2.3.1 to either 2.3.2 or better still 2.3.3 but, guess it ain't happening any time soon :-(

Force update in post #2 that I linked. This is the same file you would get from the OTA. All the OTA does is bring a dialog box saying its available for you and it goes to that link. The link was achieved using aLogCat. It's directly from *.google.com

how to force update
Picked up my NS on saturday (so it should be running 2.3.1 right?) Anyway when I go into settings-about phone-system update it says i have latest version. I am fairly confident this is not so. So how do I force update to my NS?

Search for the thread titled '2.3.3 link' and do it manually or wait until you get it pushed down to you. There it's no way to force it OTA (over-the-air)

Go to development and use the 2.3.3 restore with root. Real easy

No offense to the OP, but I find it very odd that people buy a "pure Google experience" android device then manage to forget to use Google.

i know right

So, now that EC10 is out, I'm trying to figure which path to go.
- Install the official EC10, then root?
- Is there a pre-rooted EC10 already built?

If you're going to mod the phone then don't bother with the kies update, go right to the odin EA10 and then flash pick and pack. If you just want root and stock 2.2 official - get the kies update and use super one click after (assuming that still works to root)

I just updated to the stock rom that was posted on uscc site a few hours ago and now I cant root the device??? I cant enable or disable usb debugging
I HAVE IT ROOTED NOW THANKS

I'm running Official 2.2, rooted using SuperOneclick, Installed CWM and Voodoo, EC10 PnP, ASOP Launcher, and two of the PnP add-ons. Running smoothly with a 1527 Quadrant.

Having issues with rooting using SWC & psneuter. Just hangs on "Waiting for device..."
I have Debugging going and restarted my phone just to double check. Any ideas?

swap usb ports while it says that

I love the fact that I can use Skype now!

With no front-facing camera?!? Exactly how do you use Skype on a Mesmerize?
EDIT: Oh, I'm sorry... were you being sarcastic?

[Q] Skype video, unrooted, lastest OTA

So basically is there a skype with video APP on a un-rooted with the lastest OTA out somewhere.??
I'm still looking..or maybe not looking hard enough.
Thanks

Skype with video requires Gingerbread. The current OTA ROM from Verizon is still Froyo. This post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1138759 has Skype with video, but you will need to root your phone and install a Gingerbread ROM. I believe thats the only way to get Skype with video working at the moment.

simple question. I9020A rooted running ICS rom. Do I accept OTA update?

Hi there,
Since my phone is a I9020A on Fido I rooted and currently running CM9 ICS rom, should I accept any OTA update or do I have to manually install it through CWM?

No, it can screw up your device if you do it like that. Just do it manually like everyone is doing.

Only difference between odex and deodex is that deodex is for theming. Odex boots faster.... And if the radio you're using right bow is working properly you don't need to flash another radio

Ok so I flashed 2.3.6 back stock for OTA rom from the thread in this section and now for some odd reason I cant access my CWM. Whenever I try to it shows some box and triangle thing flashing
tried to reflash CWM using Rom Manager and kept getting an error.
Doh!

To the handful of people getting OTA update on i9020a, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE get either:
a) name of ZIP file
b) URL of ZIP file
c) copy ZIP file and upload (should be in /cache folder I think)
(preferably all three)
Once you install it the file is deleted and you lost your chance, so please if you downloaded update don't apply until you get at least one of the above...but preferably all three, you would be a hero to all of us in this thread with i9020a wanting update. This is AT&T/Rogers model.

The OP states he is running CM9 Kangs... He isn't getting the update since he is not on stock -- I think he is just asking how to actually take the OTA when it comes.
I am on Fido too in Canada and I can assure you, I have not received the OTA for my I9020A yet... Once it is available for my I9020A, I will post all the information here (if the I9020A official OTA is not already posted, that is...)

if i flash back to stock with root will i still receive OTA on ns4g?? even if with a different kernal?

I think the kernel has to be stock as well.
I just downloaded OTARootKeeper app and have reverted completely back to stock; I am patiently waiting for the i9020A OTA.
Hopefully we get it soon.
I don't mind a little wait though... by then all the other bugs and such with SuperUser app will be figured out for ICS.

I downloaded Voodoo OTARootKeeper from the android market. The description of the program claims it should hide your root during the ota and according to the apps latest reviews, it works on this ics upgrade. I am keeping my fingers crossed that it works and hopefully the super user app from the market will be updated by then to handle ics.

Also, Superuser has been officially updated for ICS, so you don't really need to use OTARootKeeper. The new SU works just like before.

Also, it looks like I hit "Thanks" instead of "Reply" at first, so.... free "Thanks" for you

I've been through the threads and nothing on Android 4.0.3 OTA for the I9020A as yet. My guess is when it shows up it will be posted in the master thread below
