Hi there!
Today HTC realesed updates 2.31 via ota , anyway the ones who install the officially RUU 2.21 ( like me ) are not able to install the new ota update. Now I was wondering what's change between the two because I'm having the fealing that 2.31 it's just 2.21 on the automatic updated channel. I'm asking because to install it I should wipe everything with the 2.31 RUU ( that by the way isn't out yet ), so I don't know if it's worth to do a such thing.

I've got a question, my sensation is completly rooted and S-off.
If a new release gets available thrue OTA.
Can I instal this, like I updated the stock device to a newer version?
Thanks
If you have a custom-made ROM you cant get ota unless ota still in the ROM arhd doesn't have that option dont now about other roms,,
And if you can use a ota, you pose root.. and s-off or it has to be in the update

Hi all, apologies if this has been answered elsewhere.
I have a debranded Vodafone Sensation using Revolutionary and then CID change, S-Off, etc.
Is it safe to accept the OTA version of ICS, or better to go the whole hog and wait for the RUU? Is one available?
Thanks in advance.
OTA will be fine, or you can flash the RUU from the Shipped ROMs thread if you don't mind losing your data - it's up to you
If you're going to go down the OTA route, you have to be 100% stock bar the HBOOT to flash it without issues (e.g. not rooted, stock recovery)
Hi Eddy, thanks for the response.
I just did the necessary in order to debrand and unlock the phone to accept the Gingerbread stock RUU, I presume I would be OK with the OTA, or would you recommend the RUU?
Hi Eddy
I have received the OTA notification for the latest ICS update, but I am confused- I'm still S-off, hboot 1.18; should I not have received this update?
I think I would prefer to start again with an RUU executable programme to wipe the phone- is such a thing available yet?
Many thanks.
The 3.32.401.5 RUU is in the Shipped ROMs thread if you want it. OTA is fine if you're 100% stock but with S-OFF

and please is this RUU version 3.32.401.5 the same build as build distributed by OTA? In case I will apply it I would like to have solved "tap to URL" problem that was in original OTA file for Nordic countries and possibly in elevate distribution..
Dear XDA-developers, readers and other people!
I have a Sensation (Vodafone NL Branded) with software;
Android Version; 2.3.4
HTC Sense Version; 3.0
Software number; 1.50.162.2
Smallband version; 10.56.9035.00U_10.14.9035.01_M
The phone is S-Off (Revolutionary) but still has stockrom.
Superuser is installed (can not uninstall it).
No i would like to install the OTA update i received from HTC/Vodafone;
3.32.162.11 (302.59MB) - Android 4.0
When downloaded, the phone is preparing to install and restarts.
For a second i see the progressbar and than i only see a droid with an warning sign.
Why can't i install the update?
Please help me.
I have been reading forums for 4 day's and tried things like recovery software, but it did not work.
I am a noob, so please make it in easy language!
Thanks a lot!!!
I'm not sure about the Sensation, but on the Desire when you S-OFF with alpharev, your new hboot is protected. To fix this you have to install an unprotected hboot.

Firstly and most importantly if you have Su installed you are rooted you can not install ota updates whilst you have a rooted handset
The only thing you can do is download the official stock European ruu here

Follow this thread to change your cid to unbranded one
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=16140388
Connect your phone to your pc make sure USB debugging is enabled and follow the on screen instructions this will remove root from your phone but it will remain S-off
Once installed you can check for updates and install ICS

At the OP, do you have the stock recovery or a custom recovery lime Clockwork Mod Recovery? If you have a custom recovery then tho sis why you can not install the official update. You must have the stock recovery.

Frank, so you have S-OFF and are rooted but still on a stock ROM. Do you have a custom recovery installed, like ClockworkMod or 4EXT? If you do, then you need to go back to stock recovery in order to be able to install OTA updates.
You also havent mentioned if you are receiving any error/warning messages during installation of the update. Knowing what you're seeing on the screen could help in determining a specific course of action.
Hi Guys!
I have installed a unbranded (stock) Rom and after that my Sensation didn't find ICS OTA.
So i downloaded the ICS Rom from XDA and installed.
So i'm on ICS now, but will not receive stock updates OTA.
And not on my stock rom, because i didn't make a backup
Thanks all!

You can download the official RUU of the stock ROM for your Sensation and then connect your Sensation to your computer and run the RUU. Go to here to download the RUU. I suggest you download the one that says " RUU_Pyramid_Vodafone_IT_1.45.165.1_Radio_10.56.9035.00U_10.14.9035.0" as it looks like it is the most recent RUU. You will probably have to do a OTA to get back to the 1.50.162.2 ROM you was on. Remember this though the RUU will make your Sensation S-on again so you will have to S-off your Sensation again after you have installed the OTA back to the 1.50.162.2 ROM. If you do not and you flash the ICS OTA then it will change your Hboot and Revelutionary is not compatible with that Hboot yet.
Edit: If the RUU I suggested is not the right region for you, I think it is for Italy, then look at the other four Vodafone RUUs. Two of them are for France, one is for Germany, and one is for the UK. But you may have to do more than one OTA to get back to the 1.50.162.2 ROM so you can get the ICS OTA if you have to use any of those RUUs
What is the appropriate RUU for CID: HTC__J15
I don't know but I do know there's a Q and A section for posts like this.

You're right. I am sorry.
If MODs can move my thread, please do.
It is an Arabic version, so you need a rom with X.XX.415.X. RUUs available are 1.28.415.9 & 1.29.415.11, though the latest update is 2.17.415.2, but the RUU has NOT been leaked or found yet. You can only get it via OTA update after flashing 1.29.415.11.

The point is how to flash that old Arabic RUU and then update, when trying to flash the old RUU I get an error that the bootloader version is newer.
You cant. Not until we get S-off.
Hey everyone what's up? I got a couple questions so I'm running a tmous HOS hboot 1.14 I went supercid and flash over to the WWE 2.31 ruu A while ago so tried to do OTA and wouldn't work would say that I'm using a modified version which I believe is the MID difference from the tmous HOS and the WWE one it I know I've seen on the forums somewhere that the OTA.zip could be ran like a ruu and I can't seem to find that post again so could someone run me through how to do that I would like the new hboot and radios. I'm using the rooted deodexed Rom and well I like it but have some issues plus I prefer to do all the rooting and extra stuff myself.
