Can I update through stock rom now I am rooted - HTC Sensation

Hello, I am running the stock ROM on the HTC Sensation XE.
I have rooted, but there is an update available, can I update through the system update that HTC put on the ROM? If I do could I brick/loose ROM.
PS. I am unlocked and S-ON.

If you are running GB now and updating to ICS possibly.
I was running the stock TMO US GB (S-off and rooted) and tried the official OTA update to ICS. The update applied, but the bootloader got stuck after the reboot. Had to reflash the stock TMO US 1.50 RUU to a non-rooted state, then I was able to successfully apply the HTC update of ICS.
Have RUU of the rom you have now to get back in case your update doesn't work out as planned.

I am on ICS already. Version 4.03.
There is a software update available, I want to know if I can do this without the phone ****ing up basically.

Just clicked on details and seen that it's a settings update. Just for settings only. Anyway, have decided to give it a go, lets see how it goes.

Did I brick my HTC Desire?

Hi there,
I have a Htc Desire with a T-Mobile branding which I wanted to update to Froyo.
So I debranded it using a goldcard and flashed the latest 2.1 rom.
Then I tried to update to Froyo but there was no update available.
So I downloaded the update manually and installed it using the recovery mode.
Unfortunately the phone doesn't work as expected.
It boots up but cannot unlock the sim card and reboots automatically after a couple of minutes.
Now i tried to go back to 2.1 but of course the bootloader is too new and this
doesn't work using the RUU ROM Update Utility (bootloader version error).
Any suggestion what I can do now?
I guess I just need another Rom with 2.2 but I don't know which one to take.
Thanks a lot!
fixed it.
I run the update again this time WITH a goldcard
thanks

[Q] No OTAs - Restored to Stock

Hey Guys.
Got a little bit of a problem. A while back I flashed Android Revolution HD and a custom recovery.
I recently restored to a stock Vodafone ROM using the 1.24 RUU. The update went fine and everything seems to be running normally except for one thing: I can't update from Android 2.3.3 to 2.3.4 as I'm not receiving any OTA updates whatsoever. Whenever I check for updates, it just says there are none available.
Internet connection is working; it's still Vodafone branded; etc. It just isn't receiving any updates when I check for them.
Any suggestions? Would using the 1.27 RUU make a difference? If it would...please provide a link, as all the ones I've tried are broken.
Regards.
Are you super Cid? Still? You need to set it to the correct CID to get the ota.
For some reason the Vodafone 1.24 for some reason isn't getting OTAs any more - go here and get the 1.27 RUU and you should then get OTAs to take it to 1.50.161.1

Upgrade stock Desire S to FOTA update

I have a HTC Desire S I bought via grey import into Australia. It's still running Android 2.3.3 and has never received a FOTA update.
Should have it received one? Is there any other way of getting an update? I'd like to avoid rooting it, I'd just like to install a signed update with the least hassle.
The details of the phone are:
CID: HTC__001
ro.carrier: HTC-WWE
ro.product.version: 1.31.950.2
ro.build.version.incremental: 27073
ro.product.brand: fet_tw
ro.htc.checkin.url: http://andchin.htc.com/android/checkin
ro.htc.checkin.url_CN: http://andchin.htccomm.com.cn/android/checkin
Are any other details needed? I guess it appears to be a China/Taiwan rom.
Why would you stay to a stock rom ?
You've probably got a phone with hboot 0.98.0000 or 0.98.0002, it would be easy to s-off & root it and there are plenty of good roms in the development sub-forum, better than stock.
If you really want to stay on an official release, create a goldcard and flash the latest RUU. Here's the RUU collection: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1002506
Absolutely Agree to the above.
No issues Rooting & S-OFF using Revolutionary.
Also, some good stable custom ROMs available e.g.: Endymion, Reaper , CM7 to name a few.
Plus, with the Kernel Source for One V available, we will probably see some stable and Mostly functional ICS builds as well...
If it were my own phone I'd install custom ROMs, I have already on my HTC Desire.
However this phone is for someone else and I'd like to upgrade it "officially" with the proper upgrade. HTC themselves have/will released a gingerbread/ICS(?) upgrade for this phone, but it is up to the carrier to upgrade and deploy it I guess?
I'm just not sure why it hasn't received an upgrade, or whether it ever will. Or if there is some way of performing it manually.
Is a gold-card really necessary? If HTC has released official upgrades, and this is an unlocked phone, can't I just install the provided upgrade some how?
To receive the OTA update , u need to be on the Stock ROM , Unrooted & S-ON.
> To receive the OTA update , u need to be on the Stock ROM , Unrooted & S-ON.
This phone has all that. It is in the original condition that it was bought. But for some reason can't receive the update.

[Q] No Update Available ?

Got a One S, previously rooted and running trickdroid 3.0. I'm trying to get the update but every time I check it says no updates Available. I Have reflashed stock recovery and re-locked it and ran the RUU, but still no updates. Do you have to have an active SIM in the phone (swapped back to amaze because i couldn't live with all of the issues with the one s) ?

[Q] Revert to fully stock on c2?

So I tried different roms on my C2 but I didn't like them because stock one performs better(weird) so I want to revert my phone to fully stock - locked bootloader,stock recovery... So if I take it to service the guarantee would work(I have already tested this with my wildfire twice...)Well obviously old ICS RUU doesn't work and I don't know if there's a RUU for 4.1.1, I can only find OTA... Btw I'm running 4.1.1 stock now. Is there a way to downgrade the phone or there is another option to revert it to fully stock?
