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
I don't like signatures....

You can check or keep waiting. Or you can use one of the roms that are have been based on this release and been around for over a week

does it affect the wifi hotspot tethering when adding a custom APN to all who updated officially 2.3 GB?
can anyone confirm this..Thanks

OTA-Did you get it? Withdrawn?

My daughter got it early on. I didn't. I'm having a lot of battery issues and rebooting. I want this update, hopefully it will cure my problems.
Reading the posts here, it seems it may have been withdrawn,
So I ask, Did you get the OTA? When?

I saw in the other post about the update that someone had it waiting for them Monday morning so I guess that means it wasn't withdrawn as of yesterday?

I never got it, either.

My wife hasn't gotten it, but I installed a different kernel. Would that keep her from getting the notice?
I figured if the ROM was stock, she would be ok...

You need a stock ROM and recovery to receive OTA updates.

I know how to revert to the original kernel, can you point me to a post on how to revert to original recovery?

Load up nvflash and click revert to stock.

I'm stock. I'm on 2.3.3 and v21e.
I'm curious and just want a show of hands from people who got it after the first couple of days.
Like I said, I did see where someone said they got it apparently over the weekend. This tells me it's not withdrawn?
And isn't the consensus that the OTA goes more smoothly than through LG?

Here's the problem, there's the lgp999DW, DWP, and 2 others that I dont remember off the top of my head. Only 3 of the 4 got the OTA. They're supposed to make the file available, for those who didnt recieve it like they were supposed to, around May 14. At that time I'm sure there should be a way to force load the update for our model.

I did the whole stock format and search for update, did the stock format and connected to my computer, all said the same thing, "Your device is up-to-date. 2.3.3 V21e." There is no current sure-fire way to get the update until they release it.

I just went through the G2x forum at T-Mobile and several reported getting the update today.

OK, found out the update was for lg p999DW models only. If you wanna which one you have, remove your battery cover and right below were the battery goes in little white print you should see something LG-P999DW or LG-P999DWP.

Official OTA is v21e
Unofficial OTA is v21y
v21y is highly NOT RECOMMENDED!!!
You can try by offline-upgrading back and forth both versions and check out the battery life

Being stated on website doesn't mean it's official. T-mobile pulled it down and has been working on random freezing and signal drop since then

I accidentally thanked you so your welcome , but how is it not official? From what i understand it was an official update from them, i dont think it was a leak either as they even gave out an update schedule, maybe they pulled it but its still 'official' from them.

It's official when it's ready and available for users to download. Check your phone if it can actually download it OTA

[Q] Auto-Update: Can it be disabled?

The root for 2.20 was just released, but I won't be able to do it for a few days and I'm worried an AT&T update might fix it. Right after I got my HOX, the 2.2 update showed up and I was hesitant to accept it because I heard that the new update would stop rooting. I declined, but next time it came up it didnt ask me if I wanted to update. Is there a way to make sure this doesnt happen again?
Thanks in advance.

Everything it starts to automatically download the update factory reset and delete the part it had downloaded off your phone

There is an apk called updater or something like that. Just uninstall or freeze it, and you will never get the OTA update notifications again. This has been discussed before in multiple other threads, so do a search for the full details.

Grab Voodoo OTA rootkeeper from the play store and back up your root just in case if you are running the stock Rom. The JB update has broken root on many devices and will be coming soon for ATT One X. Voodoo has been able to restore it after JB.

Guys, he's not rooted, so Voodoo isn't going to work.
To the OP, I would not worry about a few days. AT&T and HTC do not move that fast (oh if they could--we'd have JB by now!).

Not rooted? That's just silly now!

how do I upgrade to ICS

I recently got an htc sensation 4g 2 days ago, it is on 2.3.4. every time i go to setting>about phone>software update> check now I keep getting. You phone is up to date, There are no updates available for your phone. so how do I upgrade to ICS , is there another way to manually do it? Thank you.

Yeah. I did some research and basically couldn't find any manual way of doing it. Now you have two options:
1) If you really want the official, call T-Mobile up and ask whats going on and they'll definitely fix your problem.
2) Your other option is to root your phone. Now this is a little bit risky but if you follow all the proper steps, you'll be golden. And with rooting, you can even get a Jelly Bean ROM. It basically unlocks so many features on your phone.

Hi,
Do you only want to update via HTC update,or are you willing to s-off your phone?

Just wanted the htc update im not much of a fan of rooting.
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda app-developers app

Just a thought. Are you sure you are on stock unrooted Rom? I know sometimes folks buy the sensation now used, and the previous owner may not have put the device back to S-on. That could be a reason its not updating OTA.

Im pretty sure its stock and unrooted, I thought it would be easy by doing it with a computer like samsung kies but it seems with htc ota is the only way unless i find the file some where and do it manually.

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.

I am in the same position. I am running Android Revolution HD 6.4. However, since it is based on the sister phone, the DHD, I wonder if these same issues affect the DHD lines as well.

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
