[Q] HTC Software Update

My phone is on Android Version 2.3.4, and I checked and it appears there is an update from the "HTC Software Updates".
I try to run the update but get the blue android and the exclamation mark. I have S-Off and a custom recovery. Can someone please point me in the right direction on what I would need to do so that I can update my phone?
Thank you.

Hello,
Can you provide more information about this Update OTA have you received?
The size? (exemple: 100 mb)
Please give a screen of the update notification (not the error screen)
Thank you

I got an update notification too, but its just for HTC Twitter as far as I'm aware

@SychoSly: Please confirm this update is for Twitter ?
Because For France this update came nearly one month ago for HTC Sensation et Sensation XE.

I have attached a screenshot of the update. It does not say what the update is, just that is: 14.24MB.

Thanx you,
And for you problem, please return to original recovery.

I just got this one....1.50.401.1_R_Radio_10.58.9035.00U_10.15.9035.02_2

There is a guide on how to do exactly that located here on XDA somewhere. Search for it in the development forum, follow the instructions, and you'll be all set to apply the update.

The update was indeed a HTC Twitter update for me, nothing more than that. I am running the stock, rooted and s-off XE ROM and it installed just fine. I have had no other update than that.

ICS Update Available in Taiwan

Hey guys,
these days I have been checking the update frequently hoping for its arrival soon and this afternoon the update has arrived.
I have a Sensation XE stock rom (Asia_TW) unbranded. I bought the phone in Taiwan and received the update in Hong Kong.
I am pretty sure the Asia update has started. Good luck guys!
My findings regarding ICS/Sense3.6 :
1. System becomes smoother. (Rotation/animation/System overall response)
2. Wi-Fi works perfectly, with/without SIM card.
3. Total available RAM is now 583MB (10 Mins after boot, 194MB free)
4. Boot Up Time: 2min 30sec (+- 5sec)
5. Multi-touch Switch problem still exist
My CID: HTC_621

Hi, sorry I'm kind of a noob here. I do not know the exact procedures for checking CID. I've uploaded some software info found in the system settings. Please tell me how to check CID thx!

Try the CID checking app on the market. CID is what ota releases are mainly based on. There is another thread with a CID list.

Quite clearly a new version as the build is 3.32.709.108 so I'm guessing the OP is 100% stock
Thanks for the heads up!

Full filename is enough. It cold be downloaded from OTA server directly when we know filename.. But I'm afraid for EU phones it is not usable due to different base version and OTA file is just patch! It could be used be developers to see what has changed there and what to cook into their roms..

Finally some progression wonder if HTC also fixed the multitouch bug in this release like devs has done it already.

I am in Taiwan and I haven't gotten the update yet. OP is wrong.
I bought the phone in Taiwan and my carrier is Far East.

It could very much be due to the CID thing. They release the update based on the CID (and IMEI as well? not certain about this.) and as I read from other posts I think they release it to 30,000 devices at a time so the server won't break down. Wait for some time I'm quite sure it will come to your device soon.

Not sure because AFAIK it is Kernel bug and Taiwan has exactly the same kernel build ..

The multitouch problem still exists. Quick tab on the screen switch the first and second tab.

Stil no Update in Hong Kong

I just checked my CID and I also have HTC_621. I still haven't gotten the update.
So maybe it's for HongKong only. Not in Taipei yet.
I'm gonna ask another friend of mine over here with a Sensation if they got the ICS update. Will update after I ask.

Any new on the update on Vodafone Romania?

I don't think you can be stock or your using a Vodafone cid and downloading a non stock update, as the stock HTC__001 cid has had no ota, unless its basing off another indicator. What version firmware?

Downloaded and installed. It's faster but not many visible differences. Nice touch that all data, settings and even shortcuts were where I left them and working flawlessly so far

still nothing on the three network, what is going on, on here....why are some company rolling out 4.0 faster than others, personally i think google should just put a link on there site for all manufacture instead of we waiting for them to get there finger out and put a couple of branding making on it

Vodafone have always been quick with the Sensation ota updates as they had the phone first in the UK

Could someone that has tested this please post the Radio and RIL version numbers

[Q] Would you update it or not?

Hello everyone!
It's seems to look like another "would you upgrade the phone of your GF to ICS" (which can actually lead to tensions *skip lame part*), but it's not.
I have in my hands a sensation Z710e from Korea, still running gingerbread.
Being now in Europe (more precisely in Belgium), I would expect to have the ICS stock upgrade (cf. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1570785).
But no update showing up on the phone. I guess the problem comes from the build (1.46.911.4 CL149869 RELEASE-KES) or the baseband (10.57.9035.00U_10.14.9035.09_M) which are Korean and not European.
Questions:
- Will I ever get any update of this phone, in Europe, OTA?
- Is it possible to update the baseband/build to have an European baseband (and follow OTA updates)?
- Is it dangerous (it's not my phone I don't want to brick it)?
- Should I follow this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1472298 with such a korean phone? I have no S-off for now, and phone version doesn't seem supported http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/revolutionary?
Thank you in advance.

I'm not sure if or when you would get an update but I have rooted and s-offed two of my friend's phones including the sensation. I did the sensation a few months ago and they are happy with it

Can I change country with the help of the s-off ?
And did someone already try to change the country of the sensation?

S-off, change your cid to the local carrier and you should get the update. You'll want to s-off before the update anyways because you can't once your hboot updates.

I'm not sure in that one actually, I thought you meant changing the country by installing a local ROM. Personally I think I would super cid, s-off, and root and then install the local stock ROM or any of the other ROMs like Android revolution and then you could unroot and turn s-on if you wanted to, but it is all extra stuff to do.

GB to ICS Update India postponed to May 14th
dude dont worry you will definitely get the update... we in India are scheduled for next month

S-OFF takes 10mins.
Change CID take 10 seconds lol
Do them 2 steps and the Update should come through.
You dont have to CID, Just change it to unbranded Europe. But superCID is better and isnt any more complicated

Hey Bharat...
Who told u about our update next month? Ive been hounding those guys for days and they seem to have no clue...

Where is ICS for Turkey?

Hello all,
I live in Turkey and almost I am checking for per hour but no update.
HTC is pushing us to use custom rom
My device is s-on, no root and my software info is in below :
Software version : 1.73.468.4 (Sensation XE)
Android 2.3.4 Sense 3.0
Build Number : 1.73.468.4 CL175854 release-keys

Hi
I agree with hsahin4
HTC sold alot of devices in Turkey but there is no support
They have terrible services here
They are pushing us toward Samsung
Samsung have much better service here I think.
Most part of World received updates where is ours

Still waiting

Root your phone and get a custom ROM, you will not regret it...
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z715e using xda premium

we can not because of the f... warranty....

I know warranty means a lot, but you don't necessarily sacrifice it by rooting your phone.
The Sensation is an easy phone to root, and there are plenty of guides available to help you.
I also have a two year warranty, and should I ever want to use it, I will simply unroot, install stock backed up gingerbread RUU and S-ON.

Rooting does not woid your warranty since you can unroot and get back to offical ROM. Service won't understand it, hence they won't even give a ****!
//Lan ne korkak adamlarsınız. Garantinize sokayım afedersiniz. Root et, ROM'u kur, beğenmedin mi? Resmi ROM'a geri dön.

hey dude dont worry about the f... warranty try you get s-off and make super cid your phone and flash any kind of ıcs room on development tread
and if you dont like turn back factory default ist too easy..
