Hey guys I'm having trouble downloading the update (I know, shocking... who would want the update my issue is is that I first tried to download the update when my battery was below 35%. It said that there was an update available but I had to wait until I battery was above 35%. now that it is above 35%, when I click on the check for updates button, literally nothing happens. no dialogue no confirmation... nothing. I've already rebooted the phone and tried to clear the cache for the updater app. any suggestions? I know for Motorola phones there is a way to install the updates manually... anything like that for HTC? I'm not rooted or unlocked.

Set your date ahead 2 days and try again.
Why do you want the update. Honestly there's no reason to want it. YAY you lose root and probably can't get it again and furthermore you can get all the features the update gives in a rom.

Actually, as long as you were rooted and unlocked before, you're fine.

So I set the date forward 2 days, it discusses the update, then I got a dialog with a spinning circle saying "verifying update" with an "ok" button. I clicked the button and the dialog disappeared. Now I can't get it to reappear or download the update again. I keep setting the date forward two days and it says there's an update available but it never downloads.

So they can make threads asking how to root because they "made a mistake" and upgraded.

I wouldn't recommend updating yet. I was having a hell of a time getting TWRP to work properly to the point of destroying my sdcard forcing me to RUU back to stock. Until a Recovery fix or Root for 2.20 is found I wouldn't update.

Logged into an At&T wifi yesterday and the phone offered an HTC system "update".
Having owned several HTC products and never seeing any sort of update from them for a device I owned, Ill admit i was a bit shocked. lol
Downloaded for a few mins, although I didnt see a file size.
Reboots, resets twice then boots. Both my Inspires updated to
Software Version
1.84.502.11
took about 5 mins total
Sorry If this was somewhere else, I searched and didn't see anything.
What'd they do to my phones?
This is the update from ATT that added hsupa

How do I get rid of the update notification?
Same thing with me shows exclamation point and the android guy for me to im also rooted i wonder if we can get the update being rooted. im tired of the notification also
Anyone get it to install with root? I just don't want it to screw up my root where i'd have to do it again.
The OTA update is mostly a collection of patches. These are very specific as to the files they are to patch. If you don't have the official AT&T ROM (or a very close approximation) then the update won't do anything.
there is the full ATT rom with the included patches and fixes and stuff in the development section. just dl the rom and flash it since you are already rooted
simple and stuff.
but also a lot of the newer roms are importing the fixes

It will not run, it will fail the process.
How long does it take to install after downloading?
I'm going on about 10 minutes of the green arrows on the black screen with the phone image under it. Don't think it should take this long should it?
K, thanks. Simple answer. Is there a way to disable that notification then?
Nevermind. Hung on the install but pulling the battery worked
Install this stock rooted Rom. It has the ota update in it. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1058042
Seen some people on HTC's facebook page had posted they had received a message from AT&T about the update. Just wondering if they're going to do this by market area or by phone IMEI order.
Have you received a notification yet?
I heard they're doing it it by 10000th.

Not true as far as I know. I haven't flashed the latest RUU raw, but typically you retain S-OFF through a RUU flash. If you used gfree to get radio S-OFF (all the common rooting methods used gfree), then you need gfree to restore S-ON.
This is, in fact, a common issue when users need to send their phones back for warranty. It is tough to get it back to S-ON to make sure that the warranty center doesn't declare its warranty void.
I just checked my HTC wifi update link and it said I can update. I'm in Dallas, TX.
Still waiting, two Inspires on the account, one purchased on release day, second a couple months later. Been checking manually too. I want to try the OTA instead of downloading the RUU to see if the OTA update wipes all data. I don't care about mine, done enough data back-up and wipes on past phones, and all my stuff is Google account anyway. love that automatic recovery of apps and data is on SD card. Just want to cover my butt when the wife says "I'm doing the update" and I know she want lose her data.

I can't speak for the OTA, but the RUU adds the "Unknown Sources" option. I immediately installed Swype.
Live in Sacramento, CA market. Manually checked HTC wifi updates this morning and OTA update was available. 105+ MB download, installation ran 10-15 minutes, two self-reboots. Checked my wife's Inspire which was purchased much later (which I assume would mean a spread in serial numbers) and OTA is available for her phone two.
No issues so far except Sense is trying to sync all accounts and my Picassa Web Albums are extensive. I received one sms this morning and sent one without any issues as reported in other threads concerning this update, but I use GO SMS instead of stock app. so far so good.
Don't do the update unless you want your text messages to only show numbers instead of contact names. Wishing I never did the update now.

This is only a prob for some and it seems to have to do with linking fb contacts.
T-mo is pushing an update but when I try to install it the phone goes into recovery mode. I can't get the update done.
Any suggestions?
Are you rooted?
Clockwork or stock or the little arrow on your phone or the open box kinda thing?

I'm pretty sure you have to be unrooted & on stock if you want the update.
And installing that update could cost you S-OFF if its packing a bootloader.
You don't want the update if you are rooted! Anything tmo wants to send to your phone is old crappy software that you don't want on your phone. Why are people so worried about what the carrier's are trying to send through ota?

Royal Glacier Rom.
It's probably because you are on a froyo based rom. Try a gingerbread rom and the notification may go away.

I'm almost certain you need to be un-rooted for Tmo to be able to detect your system.
Try un-rooting the phone first and check for system update.

Flash a new ROM, or extract from cyanogenmod the fotakill apk. Put that in the system/apps then reboot.
Thanks for the FOTAKill info

Thanks.
I just got a One X back from an AT&T insurance claim two days ago, and naturally it came through with 4.0.3 on it. For whatever reason it refuses to do the OTA update for 4.0.4. I'll go to Settings -> AT&T Software Update -> Check for updates... it will check... and then just return me to the Check for updates screen. Anyone have any clues? I'm debating on just rooting it and installing a 4.0.4 ROM if I can't get it to work.
Don't run the ota, specially if you don't have unlocked bootloader. Even if you have unlocked bootloader flashing boot.img from fastboot is very very annoying. Just flash a custom rom and flash a radio if you want to.
It's a blessing it came with 4.0.3 on it. Root it and flash a ROM. Smile.
Everybody here will be against running the ota. Just root and flash the ROM of your choice, you will end up enjoying your phone so so so much more.

Mine does that too; it'll check for updates, then go right back to the "Check for Update" screen. So I'm gathering that this means I can use the 1.85 root exploit that uses the "Check for Update" app?
It is 1.85 I woke up and is updating?! it wont stop no matter what I try.
HELP!! STOP THESE MADNESS!!!
IT's at 50% now!!!
I had to Hard reset at 91% and restore factory settings.
It saved it at least... but have to redo all the phone again...
Now I'm not sure why my phone hour is not right and I can't fix this.
Anyways I had no choice, I didn't had my phone rooted yet.
yeah thats the reason i just rooted and unlocked the bootloader, i got sick of that and understood that it would just update if i didnt do anything. Spend a couple of hours and do it and load Viper and never worry again. If you already have to set up your phone again, do it on a nice rom

Totally different things .... Sim unlock and bl unlock are different...with 1.85 go find one of the 1.85 root methods follow instructions root it and than look the bl unlock thread in our development section and get your bootloader unlocked .. than download goo manager and flash twrp

Again NO need to get a new similar actually it will do nothing bbut waste your earned money
Ok I'll admit it...
I snuck behind enemy lines today and pushed the big red update button today.
I was jealous of those of you with 1.85. I'm sorry
But 1.85 can be rooted, or did that get patched up as well. Thought only 2.20 was not root-able.
Anybody still on 1.73 I recommend updating to 1.85.....had some fixes and its perfectly safe for rooting and unlocking

I have no idea how I was able to do it when I had my HTC Tilt.
It kept popping the update add and today it said after 8 hours it will update automatically.
i'm pretty sure the ota doesn't force itself.
why didn't you go ahead and root/unlock? it only takes a few minutes to root,unlock,recovery,rom.
If you can't do one clicks on your own...umm.... I.guess 2.20 is the rom for you

At the moment I started working on this, my connection got terrible bad and lost it.
I was also having trouble with the clock settings and every time I changed it it asked me about the update.
And then it told me that next time I pospone it it will force to update.
So... no internet yet and I was pissed off because the date settings where not correct and trying to fix it... It began to update in a black screen and a harddisk and I couldn't do anything at this point.
I thought about forcing it off somehow but I didn't do it in case it could screw all up badly so I had no other choice.
Anyways... I can wait until 2.20, The programers always find their ways to exploits so I'm sure it will happen soon

Root and unlock the bootloader while you still can. Then you can flash whatever stock or custom ROMs you want. You'll always be ahead of the curve compared to those unrooted/locked, and never be jealous again. There are stock and custom ROMs already based on 2.40 and 2.41 now.
