Maybe the v10D you installed with CWM has a different region code or something making the updater think there's a newer version available. I'm pretty sure the juli update is the latest one.
Be glad your phone refused to install the update as updating OTA with CWM installed is a pretty sure way to brick your phone at the moment.

Once you have CWM on the device you cannot install any official updates anymore.
I have rooted the O3D and checked for updates and had the same file of 5.04mb
I was on stock v10b and the update just brings you to v10d nothing special .

OTA Update to Android 4.0.4 for S4 is Out!

Update: the first users got this OTA update on their stock, non rooted, untouched HTC One S (S4). Everyone could choose to wait to get the update in the normal way. It will come now or later for all. If you can't wait, you can also choose to aply the full RUU from the RUU thread.
Here is the OTA update: OTA_Ville_U_ICS_40_S_HTC_Europe_2.21.401.10-1.78.401.2_release_271130unb1vtlbbuv42jp3.zip (download from HTC server or use this mirror). For now you can't install this update if you don't follow the steps down here.
Wifi issue fixes and new EA apps are part of the update. There is also a Rescue app included.
Required
- SuperCID (some kind of universal carrier ID/ region, named the 'developers region'). Everyone can install SuperCID, if you're on US T-Mobile and even if you're on a Chinese device. And everyone need it for now, even the European users. Ofcourse you can always restore your original cidnumber if you want.
- The stock 1.78 WWE ROM (d-h.st mirror or hotfile.com mirror). Also everyone need this ROM and everyone can install this rom if you have got SuperCID.
- Back-up of your files on computer. This update will format all partitions, even the sd card!
Let's get this on a list
- First you need an unlocked bootloader.
- Then you need root.
- After that you can get SuperCID on your phone (thanks hard5ter for reporting). Some users can start here cause they have already an unlocked bootloader and root.
* If you are not on stock 1.78.401.2, you have to install the RUU 1.78 WWE. Before you can do that you have to relock your bootlader. You will loose root, you will get stock Recovery and above all you got the right stock ROM for the OTA.
* If you are on stock 1.78.401.2 already, you can go to the next step after installing stock Recovery. If you want to keep root while updating to the new Android, use 'root survival mode' in SuperSU Pro or use this free OTA RootKeeper. But you need to install stock Recovery.
- Now your phone is ready, you do have SuperCID, relocked bootloader, stock Recovery and the stock WWE ROM. Time to boot your phone, check for updates and download and install that OTA update to get Android 4.0.4.
New Radio_1.06s.50.02.27_2_10.08.50.04L
- Fastboot method of flashing the new Radio gives a 'signature verify fail' error
- The PJ40IMG.zip method in bootloader will also not install any RADIO update.
- In TWRP Recovery you can also flash RADIO zip files. Dima901 replaced the Radio in one of the zip's there with the new Radio and was able to update his Radio trough TWRP, but for most of us that won't work for some reason. If you got stuck in TWRP keep pressing the power button, you have to swipe the slider to the right of your screen, still keep pressing the power button and your phone will shut down. It looks like that this method is only working for certain ROM users like CM, AOKP and MUI users.
- I updated my RADIO by just upgrading to Android 4.0.4. You can do that in a few minutes. Make a nandroid back-up first and you will be back on your current ROM in less then a hour but with the new RADIO.

Hello,
It looks like some guy received an OTA update to Android 4.0.4 with base version 2.21.401.10. He was on the Ville U WWE (RUU_Ville_U_HTC_Europe_1.78.401.2_Radio_0.16.31501 S.17_2_10.23.31501S.10L_release_258480_signed)
Can't wait until someone share the file name of the OTA, so we can all download it from fotadl.htc.com.
The version number looks strange to me. 2.XX.XXX.XX is what we expect, cause HTC highers the number with every new Android version (we are now on 1.84.XX.XXX.XX), X.XX.401.XX stands for WWE, so that's also what we expect, but X.21.XXX.XX sounds a high number for a first update. But whatever, let's get this thing.
Here is a screenshot of the new version. Thanks for reporting cualla84.

We need a breaking news section of this forum. Nice find.

The requested URL /OTA_Ville_U was not found on this server.

Lol, it was just a link for example. I didn't get my hands on that OTA update, cause we don't know the filename yet. HTC stores al the OTA files on the fotadl.htc.com server, so probably our OTA is already public on that server, but we can't download it as long as we don't know the filename.

Mmm,, ok i now understand. Thanks. Im waiting for it xD

There are some downloads with kernel 3.0.16 on http://www.htcdev.com/devcenter/downloads for EU WWE 1.11.401.109 and 1.11.401.101, might be related?
Edit: these seem to be for VilleC2, filenames are villec2-ics-crc-3.0.16-f4c3948.zip and villec2-ics-crc-3.0.16-503c44f.zip so not related to the OTA, also explains the lower version numbers on these perhaps.

Marshmallow for European DualSim Version rolling out

Morning,
my dual sim Version is now reciving the Marshmallow update. The update Text was in france.
Greetings from Munich...

Nothing on my single sim in Poland.

UK Status
Nothing in the UK yet.....

Received it yesterday in France but can't flash on my dual-sim yet because I have TWRP
Here is the name of the file now located in /cache : Blur_Version.23.21.10.lux_retasia_ds.retasiaall.en.03.zip (maybe it can help on something)

Can you share the zip then we can test

Size is about 580Mo and I clearly don't have the internet speed to upload it under 3 hours if I don't do anything else on the web (impossible today because of family) but maybe monday because everyone will be at school

I'm currently uploading it (Blur_Version.23.21.10.lux_retasia_ds.retasiaall.en.03.zip - ~600MB).
It will be available in 1 hour, maybe 2h.

Thx dude
For me the OTA didn't work, I've flashed a stock recovery and use the update menu to flash it but It gives me an error when the stock recovery flashed the ota.
So I will wait for an XDA zip version now ^^

I think i will wait for more feature comple CM13 rom ^^

here is the link:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2WxsIUaVhouXzd2N21KSk1RN0E/view?usp=sharing

I'm not sure this is related to the recovery but rather with the root. When I look at the logs (/cache/recovery/last_log), I see this many errors the the log ends like this :
file size of "/system/bin/app_process32" is 75364

When I open this "last_badfile", I see a lot of references to SuperSU. I guess we'll have to unroot then re-root our phones.

Am i the only one who wonders about the filename having ASIA in it? Is that usual? It sounds like it's the same file/firmware that has already rolled out in other countries

This is the Indian soak test version....... I think... Rolled out in other countries

I updated my phone with the file I uploaded earlier.
First I flashed the device with the unrooted original french 5.1.1 rom.
Took a screencap after the update:

Greetings from Greece.
Same here. My dual sim MXP is receiving android 6.0.0 now. For me too the update text was in French.

Actually, I think that this mention of "Asia" was already there in 5.1

Hi guys, I also got a notification in French about upgrading to 6.0 but I have unlocked bootloader and I'm rooted so I can't proceed any further.
I think the best would be a clean installation to 6.0 but I don't know how to do this. Does anybody know if there is a guide for such a thing?
I'm attaching my current version.

There it is, my mention of asia in version 5.1
Unlocked bootloader isn't an issue. You just have to unroot. To do so, just go to the Super SU app, in parameter, there is an unroot option. You don't even need to reboot to make it complete. You can just let the upgrade install.
I would recommend not to root immediatly after that because this is were it started to be painful for me (it seems chainfire hasn't released a perfectly working SuperSU for Marshmallow yet)

When will the update for U11+ build 1.10.400.23 arrive?

As the title goes, I have an U11+ with build 1.10.400.23 and I'm very curious as to when will I receive an update for this as the software updates shows nothing.
Thank you.

Hi, you can do it manually with OTA on your SDcard. Here is the file for it

Hey thanks for the reply, I have some questions where did you find this and by doing this manually will we have any problems?

Fond it by logging my update procedure and yes, you can't use your device for 10min. copy the OTA on sd and boot to recovery, choose update from sd ...

Will the OTA file work on any U11 Plus? I see it says HTC India in the file name, I have the Taiwanese version still running 1.23.709.3, and it's still claiming there's no updates available. I definitely would not want to screw the phone up by flashing an incompatible regions update.

No you can't, you need the same CID or you could brick your phone

I have the 1.24.401.2 version, is this the latest one? My CID is 034 eu

If your device is rooted or if you have TWRP installed, you can't apply the update via OTA
If you want to update via OTA, you will have to unroot your device and undo any changes that you made to the system partition and you will have to replace TWRP with a copy of your stock recovery. Then you can apply the update. You will have to root and install TWRP again after the update is applied.
Or, you can manually download the update from the internet and then use a PC to manually flash via your device's compatible flashtool or via fastboot(whichever is intended to flash firmware on your device).

Good Morning Everyone,
@Droidriven, thanks for your kind response, but I did what you suggest, re-install Nougat Rom from Htc official link deliberately did not root it at first, click on the OTA & yet, got same complain.
I even tried 2.41.401.41--3.16.401.2_S-On_firmware.zip with it but doesn't still work.
But from my research, this is what I found out that works..
* The Phone (HTC 10) is Hong Kong Unlocked Version with build number 2.41.401.4, [email protected] as its base band.
the ROM that will work must share same details with the one provided above.
Anyone that has Oreo 8.0 (2.41.401.4) Update in RUU file format, should Please kindly share its download link with me, I regret the inconveniences, thanks in advance.
