HTC Jelleybean update and root - HTC One S

Just rooted my One s. I have heard HTC should be releasing JB sometime early Sep from what I heard.
Whenever they do though, will it un-root the phone if downloaded?
I know there is JB rom now, but I was just curious about the HC OTA update.
Thanks.

U cant download HTC updates with a unlocked bootloader you will have to lock it and then do update which will stop your root access ... Who told u that it was coming early September I'm thinking its coming October

The Tmo guy... but guess that was a sales pitch...
Now that I think about it, when HTC does release it, guess the devs will be jumping on that anyway....

Lol T-Mobile is still on 1.84! International is already on 2.31. It will be international first then a few months later because T-Mobile has to add their bloat to it.

The current version number has nothing to do with anything. It was released a while back that T-Mo would leave the One S on 1.84 until JB was released. We just have to wait for HTC to release JB Sense. We really don't have to wait for T-Mo's US release because no one cares (unless you use Wi-Fi calling or want complete stock).

This is just getting a tad ridiculous. Networks are releasing there ICS bloatware updates before the unbranded phones get it. I guess HTC said they'll release it at the end of March so they have 2 days left, the clocks ticking HTC

Nope, totally stock Sensation, but tbh i can wait as my phone works fine on 2.3.4 Gingerbread,
Vodafone UK getting it right now
yes, Vodafone UK members with the HTC Sensation are getting the update as we speak. Just started rolling out about 30min ago.
Sucks taking ages for HTC to get on with it. I assume stock ppl are on cid HTC__001 and the Vodafone update is via their own cid? How else does the update differentiate between phones?

Hi Eddie I assume I should get the stock ota when its available using the ROM 1.50.401.1 and cid HTC__001. I am guessing no one had seen what the new firmware version for that will be yet?
Sent using tapatalk. HTC Sensation. debranded from three to f/w 1.50.401.1 stock build.
I'm guessing we should get ours in the next couple of days going by the nember of new threads starting where countries are getting the ICS update, Italy, Spain, Belgium.
Just checked again and nothing for UK unbranded
Can't believe everywhere in eu had got the ota except in UK unless you have a vodofone ROM. How annoying.

I know, gone are the days of apparant benefits of buying unbranded as opposed to directly from a network.....
Vodafone UK had the handset before it's SIM-free release and have had every OTA before the unbranded handsets too so the trend has continued it would seem
I just flashed the OTA file manually, a lot easier
even Greece & Switzerland has the update now, you know its a bad situation when a near-bankrupt country can have the update before the UK

Same for three they had it out early, but they are really sloow at releasing firmware because they like to customise such as disabling 2g overide but have small resources to do the customization.

Does look like we will be one of the last to get it sadly.
Might be the first to get a spelling-mistake-free one though!!
Ha true I am happy to wait aslong as they sort of most of the problems faced with the earlier releases. If not we can always play about in the Develop options!

I understand you refer to Greece with the near-bankrupt country and your surprise that they have it earlier than the UK, but Switzerland is actually rather advanced and quick in getting updates and devices.

My One S shipped with incompatible software for the OTA

Hello when looking at the minimum requirements for the OTA I saw that my software version on my phone is older then the needed to get the upgrade. So far no OTA notification and manual check fails every time. Any help on what I should do?

Root it and enjoy. There's an HTC One X thread about routing without unlocking the boatloader, but it doesn't work on the latest ota update.

The replacement phones, and very few initially shipped phones come with 0.15 baseband.
Those devices won't update to the new OTA. You have to first find the TMOUSS RUU for 0.16 in the development section and run it. Then when your baseband is updated to 0.16 you will be able to update to the new OTA.
edit - at least this is what happened with me. maybe it works on someone else's.

What software number does your phone say it is on? If it has the R2 in it I don't think you'll be able to get the update. It's different than stock. Stock doesn't have the R2 in it.

About to purchase HOX from the ATT online store...

What are the chances that the bootloader will be unlockable?
I'm assuming that the HOX I get won't come with the latest OS updates?
Last thing I want is a HOX that can't be unlocked (bootloader).
Thanks guys!
I'd assume new devices from at&t will have the latest unrootable version of the firmware

Crap!
I don't want to be stuck with the bloated stock room.
Go buy it at a store. Open it up and check. V
Just got a One X from my local AT&T Store... 2.20 on all of them (or so I was told). I think it's a bit late to hope to get a 1.85 from the store, but best of luck. Now I just keep my fingers crossed for a root method for 2.20.
firlt athowith
So just to be clear: at the moment, a HOX that comes with 2.20 cannot be rooted to flash custom roms.
Am I right?
that is correct

Well crap.
Now I can't decide what phone to get.
I love the HOX screen but on the other hand, I can root the GS3 instantly and flash an AOSKP rom and get rid of touchwiz.
Wonder how long it will take for 2.20 to be unlocked.
what to do....what to do.
I don't believe it is unrootable. I think we just haven't found a way to do it yet. I may be wrong and if I am then can someone elaborate?

Even if there is 0% chance to root 2.20, there may be exploits in newer versions.
I used to have an HTC aria, which shipped with hboot .57, but (I believe) s-off wasn't discovered until it's hboot was updated to 1.02
Moral of my story: There is almost always a way to get around security measures
But how long will it take? Who knows. I'm sure someone will make a breakthrough eventually
Dude, just get the s3. Going from a rooted phone to a locked down phone sucks balls. I can't wait to see what next year brings for phones, as I can upgrade in July. That being said, the one x is an awesome phone,even without root. Stock 2.20 is more stable than any rooted ROM I have ever run I don't have many complaints other than being locked down at all. I know I contradict my self, but it basically comes down to only one thing. You want root, get a different phone. But you will be missing out on a good phone IMO.

Who cares about Sense 4.1. The One S update for T-Mo is still Android 4.0.4 which we already have. I want Android 4.1 (which comes with Sense 4.5). Skip this Sense 4.1 BS. If AT&T does release this Sense 4.1 update, it means we will not get next real update anytime soon. So, it is actually good news for AT&T users.

If they plugged up the hboot holes like they did on the One X, I would absolutely tell her not to update.
We might be getting something soon since developing sense takes a while (Im assuming). Maybe they've been working on it for a while now? I just want jellybean to find an exploit.
My theory with our new hboot was to stop dev for the iphone 5 release and to push the sgs3, since apple, samsung and at&t are in bed together all the time.
The decent thing to do and probably what will happen is the next real update we get will have relaxed hboot.
Are any other htc phones in the same hboot situation?
All hboots have been equal for all regions based on Rom release date. Eg all roms from 2.20 era have hboot 1.14 with exact same limits.
Radio, dsp, WiFi and the Roms themself all basically are just the same progression of the same thing. No region has special treatment they all just periodically are getting similar updates. Some carriers are holding some updates up, eg Telstra delayed their 4.0.4 update by 2 weeks(2 weeks ago, it should be out this week)
Only difference for all other regions is HTC offer unlock tokens for bootloader.

Unlocking/updating/TMobile

Hi Gang,
My wife has one of these phones , it's unlocked and she is using it on TMobile.
The other day my S3 updated to 4.1.2 and she was like " why dont I get software updates" ( she's still on gingerbread - 2.3 I think ). I told her "cos you are using a ATT phone on TMobile "
My question - If we update the software will the phone have to be unlocked again or once unlocked always unlocked ? Make any sense ? I hope so.
Thanks for the help !
What is her software version exactly? HTC only updated this phone through GB; it never got ICS officially.

2.3.3 Android
2.1 Sense
is her current versions
The Inspire was never officially updated to JB. the last update was 3.20.502.52 and that was from ATT. This phone was never released as a unlock version. And who ever had it before you probably got a code from ATT to unlock it or 3rd party. Unless the phone was unlocked through a root method. If you want to know if the phone is rooted, just Hold the power button and volume down button when you start the phone. Look for S-Off, on the menu.
The difference between what you have and what was released is supposed to be better battery life, new radio, and new sense. It doesnt seem its worth updating to new software. If you are able to root it, then you have more options.

There is an update for the phone to version 2.3.5 gingerbread and sense version 3.0. You can download from HTC website. However, as mentioned above rooting may be the way to go. This phone was never officially supported past version 2.3.5.
