HTC inspire gingerbread update - HTC Inspire 4G

Just wondering, have any of you received the update over WiFi yet ?
I called HTC and they said it has already been released, but they can't release it to all phones at once (server issues). I haven't, but I'd lov

it may not be released yet we would have heard more about it by now

It got released yesterday the 4th. It is being sent out 10,000 at a time.
And yes the leaked version is the final OTA release.

This is correct.
They released it yesterday, but I had already installed the one that was "leaked". So today I compared the official release and the leaked one, and they are in fact the exact same thing. No need to wait to recieve it OTA, just go to the thread where the RUU is avaliable for download. It's all the same thing.

I work for AT&T.

Including the GPS issues, and the removal of the HTC wifi update option?

Does ruu involve rooting? And does the update cone with sense 3.0 .

No, but it will whipe all your data. And no, sense 2.1

After GB install. GPS doesn't work.

Ive been running the RUU update for a couple days now...no issues...runs great.

Is there anyway I can install 3.0 without rooting?

simple answer, no. sense 3.0 will never be 'officially' released for the inspire 4g.

Try doing a factory reset to see if that helps with your gps.
After installing the leaked file I did a factory reset just for the heck if it to make sure things are all cleared out.

I wanted to install this just to see but when I tried I just got hung up on the HTC black logo screen

I'd root but im so worried about pricking my phone.

Unless I'm mistaken, I think you just got pushed the HSUPA update. This part of the file name, "1_84_502_11", matches my firmware number after the HSUPA update. I don't know what number was on the firmware before the update, but my firmware is 1.84.502.11 after said update. From what I remember, the file name is exactly the one I got when I checked for it after the update was officially released last month.
EDIT: Unless of course, I'm wrong, and that's a totally new firmware update. Though I haven't seen any info on any new firmware updates for us since HSUPA.

I got the push on this via wifi yesterday afternoon also. I was assuming that this was the update that would enable installation of non market apps but I was wrong. Anyone have any additional information on this OTA update?
Personally, I do not think this is a recent update as I have been running custom roms since I bought the device but had to revert back to stock because of a warranty issue that will require me sending the device back. I think it is an update that was missed in the timeframe from February launch up until about 3 days ago.

I just referenced those numbers to mine and it IS the HSUPA update. It wasn't released till late April, so it hasn't been out that long. I just don't know if you should install it. If your sending it back, and since you reverted back to stock, maybe you should try installing it.

I was at wendys today, used their wifi to check for the update and sure enough it was this same one. D/l'ed it and installed. My speeds went from 200kb/s to 500kb/s. That was just one test though
I just hope this doesnt effect rooting it in the future as i plan to do so.
Just got the Inspire for my wife today. Saw this update as well. She doesn't want me to root or flash anything yet. Wondering if it's ok to run this update without it affecting the ability to root and flash anything later.
TIA

System Upgrade 1.84.502.11???

I got a notification on my ATT HTC Inspire for system upgrade 1.84.502.11. Anyone know what this upgrade is for?
Did you do it? What does it say it changes?

I tried but didn't work. I think it because my phone is rooted. Based on search, it looks like its a radio update and has been out for a while. I don't know why I just got the upgrade notification. Maybe it because I got my Inspire few weeks ago. I tried update via wifi and it never showed up until today.
Anyone know how I can get this update on rooted phone?

That's what I figured.
Any suggestions? I did some research and it looks like there is a patch which I could down load but its recommended that I install from ruu. What's ruu? I am not familiar with HTC terms.
RUU is Rom Update Utility. It is a stand-alone application from HTC that will basically erase everything and restore your phone to the level indicated by the application. The latest official RUU for the Inspire is (wrapped in code tags because otherwise XDA likes to split long words:
Code:
RUU_Ace_Cingular_US_1.80.502.3_Radio_12.39.60.19_26.06.04.06_M_release_166557_signed.exe
The OTA update patches this to:
Code:
OTA_Ace_Cingular_US_1_84_502_11-1_80_502_3_P_release_186225z4g9g65j9b7kolus.zip
There is no RUU for 1.84.502.11 as far as I know. You cannot install the patch unless your phone is 100% stock. It uses patch files (BSDIFF) to update the system partition and because of this, the system files must be identical to the ones the patch was made for and if even one is not there or different (think build.prop i.e.) then the whole update aborts.
The only way I know of to get a clean update is to do it as intended by HTC (pathc a 100% stock ROM with the OTA update) or use Attn1's patched version of the ROM from the dev section:

Its not an issue really. It is how the rest of the world sets their numbers. And lets not forget where HTC is. Your best bet is to just set up your numbers with the +1 in front like the rest of the world. They are not gonna change this for the few US based phones that come out. Oh and its ATT that is supposed to make those changes.

I'm pretty sure this doesn't fix it for everyone. (Definitely doesn't fix it for me.) Is there any other step besides adding +1?
All my contacts are +13333333333. The names eventually show up, but a reboot makes them disappear.
EDIT: I do agree though, it wouldn't be an issue otherwise.
For some reason when i do the check for updates it tells me my phone is up to date. I know i can download the update manually but i would rather not have to as it wipes my phone. Are their any solutions ?? Thank you in advance for anybody who assists me

T-mobile one s system update

I have rooted T-Mobile phone, original software that came with the phone at the release date, system update is recently downloaded OTA but not installed.
Two or three T-Mobile minor APP were removed using Titanium backup.
Understanding that three is probably multiple updates since release date, and I will be loosing root:
I am trying to achieve good wifi calls and free tethering.
How do I go about to update the phone to the latest software (not interested in custom ROM): can I just install the update?
Is there a specific post or guidance for this situation? really appreciate all the help.

I looked at the website provided and it looks like it is just updating the .apk files. But the website does not specify the security issues for the 4 apps.

I doubt it will "lock" the phone. They are apps to install (.apk). If you are on some unlocked variant of the 3.20 ROM for the phone you should be ok. Just in case, nandroid and recover should the need present itself.

It probably will. This doesn't look like its an update for any based DHD Rom because the update is offered by at&t. The DHD is an international varient of the device
