You need the stock recovery

I would wait till someone adds the update into a rom. You could loose root if you update.
If your on a custom Rom just wait for the next release, chances are it wills be in there it if isn't in there already.
If your on stock, then perhaps look for a rooted stock Rom. Someone is bound to pit the newest up with the update already installed in there.
This happened with a lot of EVO 3D users, they updated and lost root and then got stuck at hboot 1.50...
So don't just on every update you see lol.

Update problem.

Ok I saw a lot of members having a problem with the 2.3.4 update so I thought I'd make a thread where someone can help us all out at once rather than going thread by thread.
The problem is that when it powers off and boots up when installing the update, it shows the green android next to a triangle with an exclamation mark in it. And yes I'm rooted and S-offed. So can anyone help us? Thanks.

+1. Have tried both OTA and Clockwork recovery to no avail. Guess it could be CID problem. Now the OTA has been withdrawn from my phone. I can only wait and check update later with my fingers crossed.

Does this mean that you've tried flashing Stock ROMs with 2.3.4 (in CWM)?
Yup. Have done that several times for the past 2 days and failed. Luckily it allows me to reboot back to Tmobile Stock 2.3.3 (rooted).

Ppl, if your rooted and s off u will not be able to get ota updates. There is a deoxed version of the ota in the development section already.

I think he means, you need recovery as it was PRE-ClockworkMod. Any threads?
(correct me if I'm wrong)
Then that's a different matter altogether. Will need to figure that out. Does that involve unrooting the device after recovery?

I'm going to do this tomorrow to update. It should work.
So did it work
- Backup everything using CWM and Titanium Backup.
- Install the RUU to get back to Stock Recovery. (You'll loose all settings/apps/SMS/etc..)
- Install your OTA update.
- Restore everything using Titanium Backup.
This should work for any of you who has CWM Recovery. If you already have Stock Recovery, then you're ready to go. You don't need to flash a new rom by the RUU.
It's not the root that is causing the problem, it is the CWM Recovery.
Keep in mind, flashing a RUU may brick your device, I take no responsibilities of any damage that may be caused to your device
I just discovered a new method, tried it and it worked.
Take a look at this.

Stock rom

To my understanding RUU is an executable file that must be run from a pc. There is a flashable 2.3.4 OTA posted in developement. Flash in CWM Recovery.
Here is the link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1226085
I can't find one for 2.3.3 stock, but the link is for the T-Mobile version OTA.
Haha really? That's funny.....the only.thing I did from,a PC was the rooting part......everything else I thought I could do it from my phone lol. That explains.my battery drain lol

Can you get HTC updates even with S-off, but with stock rom installed?

Can you still get HTC updates even with S-off, but with stock rom installed?
Or can HTC detect S-off and will not update?
Yes, as long as you don't install a custom recovery.

And if you do have a custom recovery, don't fret.
A short time after the OTA comes out it'll be available for download so you can install via ClockworkMod. That's the power of XDA
You have any idea when OTA comes out?

Your guess is as good as ours.
There is this which states that we should get it in January. My guess they may start a rollout in the middle of February.

No, if you're on ICS, you'll only reset ICS.

Are you rooted and s off? If not I'm very sorry to say you can not go back. However if you are rooted yes you most certainly switch back to Gingerbread if you like. If your really hateing it you CAN root and revert back to Gingerbread after your successful in rooting. You might want to even try a Ics Rom. I've found them to be a lot more stable than stock Rom. I was having issues on stock and once I rooted and installed custom Rom the issue went away.however only do what your comfortable doing. I wish you the very best in what ever you're decisions.

O well thank you guys for helping out!

The reason everything is force closing is because it needs a factory reset. My sisters SGSII did the same, i noticed when i reflashed the ota update for her it didnt wipe at all and all the apps force closed
