I recently rooted my Inspire. Today there was a WIFI update available and when I went to run the update the screen blacked out with an exlclamation mark. Is this because of the root that the phone will not take the update? Or is that the update process?
Thanks
Is the update from your service provider or from the people that created the ROM? If it's from your provider I would not even try to run the update just wait for an updated version of your rom to come out.
Thanks!
Kind of what I was thinking but being new to the device I thought I would ask.
Thanks again!
This is just to enable better speeds but all the ROMs already enable that.

Actually, its likely the side loading update, which most Roms also have. The speed update was weeks ago...

The OTA update is a combination of a patch pack and some new firmware for the radio and hboot. The first phase is applying the patch pack. For this to work, you need a pretty much stock ROM. If you're rooted, you likely have a few files that will be different and the patch will fail. It also checks the CID and aborts if you're not using stock (ie you used gfree to "open" your SIM, etc.). The firmware will only install after the patching process has completed successfully.
If you are rooted, then your best bet is to just use ATTN1's package that contains all the patched files and firmwares. You can find it here:

So I called Att in regards to visual voicemail, and was told that there will be a over the air update to allow visual voicemail, and who knows what else? Bootloader? Fingers crossed.

Weird as I installed it yesterday and it worked flawless. I just looked in my apps then scrolled down the "all" category till I found it.

I have it working already. It took a liitle work to get it to work properly. I called ATT to provision the VVM. They told me about the update, but didn't give me a date. I didn't feel like waiting. You can see the AT&T visual voicemail.apk in the android market on your PC. However, if you don't have a device that uses this file you cannot download it. There is a way to trick the Play store to download files. I installed the 1.9.6 revision and it works great.
I was using google voice, but this did not work properly on the One X. There were no notifications when I received a voicemail.

How did you get the 1.9.6 version? I had to install the older 1.8.x version as the market wont allow me to download it.

It wouldn't be done over the air because then they would be unlocking everuones bootloader, my guess is it'll be released on htcdev

I just installed Gleason's from the Vivid forum, set up my VVM, then updated it via the pop up that said that the VVM had an update, go through that process, you will be interrupted with a screen that says that vmm is not signed...ect, gives you the option to uninstall or just leave it, select uninstall, then go thru the prompts, installed fine on my One X.

I did that, but the Play store came back with an error and would not update. Im still stuck on 1.8.72 and Ive uninstalled and reinstalled trying to do this step 3 different times now.

No I'm thinking the way the phone is now it's locked down. Not that the OTA update would unlock your phone, but maybe the OTA update would allow you to go on HTC Dev and unlock if you wanted to???? Don't know what the OTA update will bring? I would think more than just visual v/m though. It makes sense to...as far as timing with return policies. Who knows... Does anyone know if the Vivid had a OTA update before you were able to unlock or did it just show up on HTC dev?

I don't know saw the update notification for the app, but wouldn't show in the market. Kept saying retry.

no. the vivid did not have an OTA before the unlock
an OTA or any kind of update is NOT REQUIRED for HTCDev to unlock the phone.
There is NOTHING that needs to be done except for HTCDEV to allow the unlock to happen. its a freakin switch, like a light, that they can turn on to allow the unlock, but AT&T is holding their finger and wont let them hit it...

Ok first off I don't know a whole lot about figuring this stuff out, but trying to learn.So while poking around the zip for the ota update I came across the ATT Readytogo.apk, could we put the original one in there that allowed us to get root and then install the update. Would the original apk stay and allow us to use that exploit to gain root on 2.2 if you did not originally have it or lost it.
I don't know if this is even close but thought it might work. I am still running 1.85 rooted so not too comfortable with testing this.
Let me know what you smart people think.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
The one issue with this is once you modify the ota zip it ruins the signature and it will no longer pash the signature verification and it will fail

Ready2Go is patched. Regardless, even on the old exploitable version, required an app to be installed from ATT's side....which they disabled.
Darn I figured it sounded too easy

on the comments in androidpolice, someone said this update wiped their phone. anyone tried it yet?
Just installed the update. Only took a couple of minutes and didn't wipe any data for me, but we'll have to see about battery life. I had resorted to disabling all of the location based services it had gotten so bad.

Definitely seems to have fixed the battery drain issues. I was able to turn everything back on and the battery is draining at about the same levels it was on ICS.
I would assume this is a T-Mobile USA update. My post-update version number is 3.14.531.17 710RD.
Does anyone have a download link for the OTA? The "Manually Update from HTC" links all go to the 3.14.531.11 RUU.
How do we update the phone if it is rooted? Mine is rooted and it keeps booting to the recovery and nothing after that. Is it possible to unroot so I can install the update and root it again afterwards? I don't want to flash it to stock and then root it all over again.
I updated yesterday. Glad to see this update. I ended up taking my phone apart and replaced the battery thinking it had gone bad. Jury is still out on whether this update makes a difference.

So there's really no simple way to do this. I have the otapkg.zip in my phone but it's only 2.57 kb. Could it be a failed download? I got a message that HTCdm stopped working earlier. Sorry for the noobish question, even after a year on android in not all that familiar.

It doesn't seem all that difficult to me. As long as you're SuperCID and s-off it should be simple. Did you read the whole thread? There's nothing I can really tell you here that hasn't already been said there. Your simplest option is the RUU.
Sent from my Evita
Yea I read pretty much all of it, I'm completely stock so I'm not sure what amount applies. The only reason I was trying to get around manually downloading it is that my horrible internet connection at home which makes it a full day of downloading.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
Either way, you're gonna have to download it somehow. The RUU is the easiest way. If you ever want to modify your phone though it must be done before taking this update because the current exploit has been patched in the update. You'll get a much better experience on a custom ROM but that's entirely up to you.

Could be. Delete it and try to check for the update again.
I tried that and deleting the data on the Google services framework too, got nothing. So I guess this weekend I'll do the ruu.
