[Q] Has anyone recieved a OTA Market Update in the US? - HTC Sensation

I have been waiting for the updated android market app to release over the air, I wanted to know if I'm the only one still waiting on this to happen?
I don't want a link to the APK I already have one, I just prefer to wait for OTA releases of APK's nothing personal.

Just a question, but what version is the newest update?

It was 3.1 when i posted this message, I just saw that there might be a 3.2 now

Nothing to see here

Market has had an update in the U.K. it's now 3.1.5 We now have video rentals.

Woah, when?! Im still on 2.3.6 running the Stock rom

Not exactly sure when they upgraded it, but I noticed it earlier today.
I updated a few of my apps, and market was taking ages to get going,
and to be honest I didn't really notice the change until I downloaded
another app, and I saw the 'Films' tag. You'll also need to download the
Google video app too if you ever rent a film.

okay good to know. but it looks like the US people haven't received the update... guess I'll just keep waiting

Another OTA?

So tmonews.com just announced another update for the 4g. http://www.tmonews.com/2010/11/android-phone-updat​es-galore/
I wonder if the mytouch 4g update is the second update or if its the first one that many of us got in the first few days of owning the device. Any one know?
Damnit I still haven't gotten the first one!

I was just about to post about that... I would definitely like to know also because my video chat does not work that well (especially low volume!).

in the article(picture) it says this fixes qik bugs

Personally, I would wait for CM or another rom to come out. Video chat will probably be optimized (among other things) in those roms anyway and there is no telling what this will do to root. It may "fix" root and plug up the exploit so that you are back at square one again.
My MyGlacier 4G MINE!!!
It's the same update we know about.
I would love cm on here but I hope there will be some way to keep the genius button. That's one piece of bloat ware that I love. I heard someone with a g2 had it on their rooted device so maybe a easy to add it to our custom ruins when they come out?

its not the same one... this is the second one.... i installed the first ota update days ago, and the new one popped up last night. so this is indeed a second ota update.
Was it a regular OTA or just a OTA that pops up when you open up Qik? Thanks.

regular... i have never opened Qik
Since the link is down - what specific items did it mention - or was it just a general announcement without any specifics?
I wonder if it matters which data plan you're on regarding getting the OTA's...? I'm on mytouch unlimited web, but I think the newest one is 4G unlimited web.

I was wondering about that also. If it was to plug a hole, it will become evident if those with the 2nd OTA find that the s=off and/or the rooting itself procedures no longer work. And then there is tethering....
Would TMo be that mean ???
If you make a backup using Clockwork, could you just reflash to get back to where you were if the new OTA takes away root?
If it's just a Qik update, can Qik from the new version be pulled from it and then installed on a phone without the newest OTA?
no because you need root to nandroid your phone
Only one update. If you have 2.2.1 thats the update for qik and some bugs; I got the email from HTC in their monthly news email.

[Q] Lost Nexus S Stock music app

While cleaning out my phone with software I no longer use I somehow removed the stock music player. Can someone tell me how to get it back. I know most people do not like it but I want it back.
Um, the market

The one I am referring to I believe it came with the 2.3.4 update since that is the version of the music app. I know the android music app is in the market but I am hoping for the one that came with the last update.

I think your "stock" music app is still in your phone. The google one overwrite it because it will be standard on all future updates.
**try going into manage applications, all, then uninstall updates to music player
It's the same one from google but it was just updated the other day.

[Q] How does the built in software handle updates?

I wanted to ask if anyone knows how HTC handles updating the included software? most of them don't show as installed in the android app market, so I don't get update notifications for them.
I'm asking this because there's a update that came out for the adobe flash player today, and I'm not sure if it was updated in my phone.
I just checked it out in the manage application and it's still on 10.2 software, WTF... so anybody know if that suppose to be the case, and how is it smart to have the built in apps not show up in the market.
The ones that are built in (besides flash) you need to leave them be...The Version of Qik is newer in our phone...the market version is older and hasnt been optimized for our phones.
If it doesn't show up it's because they put a different version in our phone than what was released in the market...Leave it alone and when its ready to update it will alert you..Like I said..Flash is the exception to that.
OK so does the mean...?

Okay so does this mean that I shouldn't manually update apps like Adobe Reader, Telnav... those are the only additional ones i noticed besides flashy that weren't updated.
Keep in mind that older versions of adobe products are known to have major security flaws.
That may not be saying much because allot of things in android OS have security flaws, but that's besides the point. Just because it's optimized for our devices does that make it not vulnerable?
fyi...I did have an htc update notify for the Listen V1.31 app on 6/25/11. Installed w/o issue...

Aw this sucks, I already installed the apps from the marketplace thinking the ones on my phone where older version.
Should I do a factory restore so I can get them all back to normal? Or am I SOL?

Netflix on Froyo!!

According to Android Police, Netflix has added our device to the supported list!
http://bit.ly/oPqr9l
version 1.3 is supposed to work on our device, but currently the version that you can download from the market is 1.2.2, so I guess that's why it isn't working yet.
downloaded it but it goes back to main screen after putting in email and password
your link is dead it seems here is another
http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/0...rge-atrix-4g-bionic-and-one-honeycomb-tablet/
Gives me the boot as soon as I log in. Not cool Netflix!
Sent from some device on the third terrestrial planet in the solar system.
It's kicking me out also.
Sent from my Droid Charge!!
I know, I got kicked out too! =[
I saw it in the market earlier. I thought it had appeared because of some of the tweaking I'd done after rooting today, but quickly realized that is probably preposterous. This makes a lot more sense.
Anyway, it doesn't work for me either. Force quits after trying to log in.
Here's to hoping that 1.3 update is released soon and we can finally watch Netflix over our unlimited 4g data plans!
dropped a 1 star on the app in the market for listing the charge as supported, and it STILL closing after login. here's hoping after enough of those, they'll actually fix the issue. honestly, this is the one app I'm holding out for to make this phone complete for me.
Not working for me either. Reboots after logging in. Seems like netflix pulled the switch a bit too early.

the version downloaded from the market works on the gingerbread leak (i don't think it worked before). maybe netflix requires gingerbread? idk. hopefully that's true only because it means a gingerbread release would be any day

Netflix would not add the Charge to supported devices over a leak, since its you know.....a leak...... and yes, previously most all phones required GB to run netflix.
If it added as a supported device and still won't work on Froyo, then it deserves bad star ratings, if it will support the Charge Froyo with a new version of the app, but that version isn't out yet and they are already adding it to the list of supported devices, it deserves a 1 start review.
has anyone tried it on stock froyo or are we all on modded roms?
Tried on both
Sent from my SCH-I510 using XDA App
2 things:
First, it specifically mentions the Commando with 2.2 as being compatible.. so that's a nod toward Froyo support.
Secondly, it lists the Bionic as being supported.. so maybe they just grabbed a list of phones and called them supported.. or maybe the Charge is going to get Gingerbread soon.
Its definetly becuase they didnt put 1.3 on there. It even says in the description "Netflix 1.3" but has 1.2.2 so thats clearly the problem. But why on earth would they update the description and not the actual app?????
The app downloaded fine from market on my GummyCharged Froyo. But it's the same 1.2.2 version released a month ago. The app description does mention 1.3 - so hopefully an update will be pushed out soon.

I just called Netflix to complain about it not working and they told me that it may be a DRM issue.
The more people that call to complain the faster they will fix the problem. (or they will pull support for our phones)

Its always been a DRM problem.
So the questions we need answered is 1.3 going to clear up those issues or did they just throw the DC on that list for the heck of it.
There is no point in doing anything until the official version on the market is actually 1.3. Then we will find out if anything changed.
Looks like it was just updated. Loaded up fine for me.

That thread was discussing the upcoming ota and being ready for it.
This thread is a post update discussion. Also that thread was cleverly and so descriptively named 'update'. I hope to keep this one uncluttered and on topic.
Plus this one is actually in the proper location. So you should probably go troll somewhere else that doesn't make you look ignorant.

I hope improvements to 'camera stability' means improvements for when the camera:
isn't playing nice with multi-tasking,
isn't sleeping properly,
might be the cause of phone over heating,
might be the cause of random reboots,
might be the source of battery drain...
15:00 EST. "There are no updates available for your phone."
Chill out everyone. They have a 2-3 week window to roll out the update. It is Monday morning, and you know how Monday's are. I wouldn't expect to start seeing anything until later today or even tomorrow.

While I get what you're saying, it's hard for me to remain calm considering how erratic my signal is. Sometimes the phone just decides it has no sim card even though it does. Data hanging? Yep, I got that. Sporadic text notifications or lack thereof? Check. Having my phone function just as a phone would ease my nerves a little bit but as it stands it does it's own thing and it seriously affects my day to day.

Have you tried the EU update yet? I would suspect this US update is going to be very similar to what is already available in Europe.

to be honest I hope it wont be that similar. I am on 1.78, sim free phone, and it reboots sporadicly when switching from hsdpa to wifi.... I am crossing my fingers that the new radio included in 1.84 will solve this.

You are all just going to love this. According to the tech I was working with, we are going to have to wait for the OTA update notification before we can download. The wording on the website regarding manual download immediately is incorrect. You can only do that in the case where maybe you accidentally dismissed the OTA notification. He tells me that most notifications are received within 72 hours
