Hello Everyone,
I just received a notification that a new software update is available for my HTC Chacha here in India: 1.57.720.3
I am currently on 1.57.720.1 and have unlocked and rooted the device (no custom rom installed)
I have a question:
If I update to this version, will I have to root my phone again? If not, then what is the benefit to update to this version??
Should I update?? I don`t want to lose my root ability.
Don't update, you will have to re root. If I were you I would get cm7 or cm9 they run very well and are much better than the stock ROM

Tried what?
Those listed there on htcdev are NOT ROMs. Those are kernels. You download those and then get the android source code from google, then build android for yourself using those kernels. Which should be for ICS but it has been discussed in the dev section and they seem to be for GB.
Further more, I have compared the 4.0 India and the 2.3 India and only 3 GPIO files have been modified. So it's GB kernel with 4 more lines of code.

1. this is not ICS?
2. Will i get it stable on my chacha!!

I have upgraded to the new TW offical rom sucessfully (my phone is original shipped to TW).but I want to downgrade to myhero 2.0.2...I know the spl was changed.so..how can i do? is it perfeted SPL? I mean, I couldn't flash any other ROM since now?
lol so would you say that mod's > official rom?
can you post the link that you download the software from if you can
No downgrade
Same problem here!

The only thing we can do,I think, is to wait for a miracle....praying...
i mean, TW offical rom=> my hero
I find the official update, even without BFS and overclocking, is much faster than MyHero.
Why would you want to downgrade to something that the rom you want to downgrade to is trying to get to your rom.. lol what i mean is Hero roms are trying to get to the level of the official rom. If you want to downgrade so you can root again.. just wait till someone makes the official rootable.
The SPL is the same version as the Hero (HBOOT-1.76.007). Anyone want to try rooting their Magic with the OTA Sense ROM using the Hero rooting instructions?

yes!! arg htc
Help!!
really, we can't flash the phone , for the rest of time ? nothing can search a method?? help us!
same problem,whether can find new kernel bug to get root access this latest rom?
so why do you want to downgrade again? is it just because of having no root and wifii tethering?
Not only because of having no root and wifii tethering,there is bugs and FCs within the TW Official Sense UI ROM.
Though it works faster,but the bugs and FCs are no less than the custom ROMs', and without root,I couldn't sync with my google account via certain APN...
There should be official instructions about the details of this update.
Now I would request the HTC's support to offer methods downgrading back to the original
version.
im on my stock rom and stock everything just rooted... i do have clockwork recovery though. question is does this prevent me from getting ota updates or not? i have read various things saying that if you have a custom recovery installed it will prevent the install of the ota update but you still get the file ota.... Also, if it does work to install an ota update will i lose root? thanks
Its always recommended not to flash an OTA over a rooted ROM as it can bugger things up
you are able to receive the OTA, but it is strongly recomended not to
thanks guys , anyone know when 2.3.4 will be released for US version???

I highly doubt anyone does. We don't even know the date of the maintenance updates yet.
My phone has only the S-OFF. It's NOT rooted.
How can I update my Desire S with the official ICS ?
the actual ROM is Orange ROM (France) : 2.3.5 (it was my old operator).
Need help.
thanks
Please read the threads relating to the ICS ROM - all the answers have been posted in there many, many times over the last few weeks.

Hi all,
I've a HongKong HTC One XL (2.42.708.3), bootloader unlocked, rooted, TWRP installed and still S-on. Yesterday I received the notification that the OTA JB update is available for the phone.
Before stating the official update, what do I have to do ?
Do I need to unroot ? Remove TWRP ? relock the bootloader ?
Or do you think, it's easier to go to an rooted official JB ROM ?
Thanks for your advices,
Vince.

Think he means a screenshot of the message that appears on screen.
Normal practice is to give as much info as possible eg are u rooted? Do you have a custom rom ? Etc etc otherwise it's just a guessing game for everyone on here
You say your on hboot 2.2.2 so I am assuming your android version is 4.3 stock .
If when you click on check for updates and it says "no update available" then there is no update available! As it hasn't been pushed to your device yet by your service provider.Are you on about sense6? If so I don't no anyone that's had the official update yet. You can get sense 6 from here if you are rooted.
If when you click check for updates and it says ther is, but you can't download. Then that is a different story.
It's all just a guess without info
