Having a heck of a time applying the OTA update.. - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

So at home on wifi my One X connects/disconnects/connects/disconnects over and over, so obviously I can't update at home.
In my office, zscaler blocks the update.
So I downloaded the update at a Starbucks.. and I keep getting prompted in the notification bar that it's completed, I click it and it says dl successful.
..then the notification disappears and reappears after a couple minutes with the same popup, dl successful.
How can I apply this? Can I boot manually into recovery and apply it? any other ways to apply this thing?

Try to reset your phone and run the update again. This method has helped a few members in this forum.

I tried this, and after checking for an update, it said no updates available. So I am stuck on 1.73? Anyone else have this happen?

You got it too? Idk I postponed for 30 min. I don't want to update until I know what it is. I wanted to try to download it somehow so I can post for those who need it. I saw this yesterday but I'm not holding my breath until I know for sure... I would think gingerbread would be a rather large update tho

Lol I still postponed it another 30 min. If its taking long and freezing it must be a major update.... I would think you just update directly from 1.3.2.

How to disable OTA notifications?

I've been searching and havent found a definite answer to it. Is there anyway to disable the OTA notifications permanently? I'm tired of having to cancel it manually every 5 seconds after unlock screen. I'm on 1.85 rooted, bootloader locked. Tried date changes, tried letting it download then cancel, cache cleaner app, etc, nothing seems to work permanently. I even let it download once just to watch it fail and give me the error that it failed to install so wait until the next update is available. Did that and notification for the same update came back up again a day later. Or am I just stuck with always having to cancel manually?
Thanks

Delete the update.zip in your sd card and change the extension of the HTC/AT&T OTA apks in /system/app/.
Can we get the location of the downloaded OTA on the SD, and names of those specific APKs?

Hmmm looks like it might just be "updater.apk" I renamed the extension to .bak and rebooted. No OTA notification...yet. I'll report back.

Can someone in the know please confirm that renaming updater.apk is all that is required to prevent the OTA notification?

Just delete it and you will be fine. Thats what i always do just to be safe.

You need to lock the bootloader, have the stock recover, and possibly factory reset before you accept the ota for it to work.

You need to flash stock recovery then update. After that you can flash CWM or root again if needed. Get the stock recovery from the RUU and flash it.

I keep flashing the stock recovery with all-in-one and then downloading and installing the update. Everytime, about halfway it goes back to the red triangle with the exclamation point and restarts the phone five minutes later.
I check software and its still 4.0.3 and the update redownloads. I've tried several "stock recoveries" and the update afterwards... never works.
Is there something I can freeze in titanium backup that will make the update notification in the status bar disappear?

In phone settings, tell it not to check for software updates.

I think you should be able to access it over cellular network as long as you directly go to the download link and not through the settings menu. I could be mistaken, though. I don't know and I didn't try, but here's the link:

Thanks for the link to download over 4g. Has anyone been able to update via this download? I'm stock, unrooted, 4.0.4. I don't want to wait the hour+ it will take to download via WiFi.

On my Nexus 4, the top notification is expanded. I wonder if having the power saver constantly at the top prevents the first notification from expanding automatically.

Google how to change update schedule for your phone model, there is a lot of sites with your info. In past it was used to manipulate update settings. Also if you are rooted then use app like titanium to freeze or remove update module. I personally would remove it as oem updates are garbage IMO .

I don't see any solution myself. What's happening with your phone is not normal. There's something wrong. The only way to fix it would be to ruu or clean flash a rom if you are bootloader unlocked.

Check them all out. Read the features. If you see a rom with the features you want download and flash it.
Use titanium backup and freeze the OTA updater. Not sure what its called. My mother in law just got a One X, so I'm browsing these forums.
In my S3, its called AT&T Updater or OTA Updater. I haven't been stock in a while. I hope this helped.
