Who is your service provider? You could maybe double check it with them if they released the ICS update at all. (they should have though... ) You could maybe reboot your device I give it a try again? Somebody more clever might help you out...

built in updater is the same I told you.

And one more thing! You could also have a look in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1672425 It is about RUU (Rom Update Utility). By using these you can update your device but you need to choose the right RUU for your device. Use this if you cannot get anywhere with your provider...

The answer is written in the thread I gave you and set up by kgs1992. Read all that stuff just to make sure you are familiar with that you are going to do. :good:

Just be sure you're connected to wifi and check for updates, it will prompt you to install the latest software available for your phone and region

Yes. When you tap on the check now button, a window will appear where it tells you what you are going to download. And It's better to be connected to WiFi as it will download a bigger amount of update.

2 versions as the lower one is the prerequisite version needed to get it. Radio is the same as the European version

why don't I;
1- flash this from the op
2- flash cwm 4.0.1.4
3- flash su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed.zip
just to see what happens?

Someone in the General Forum on the 2.3.4 tmobile thread says that works, again u must be completely stock no root no custom recovery. (s-off) is ok.
I'm reverting my phone back to stock right now and going to do it.
Please if somebody flashed this test this Game and report back if it is working for you without problems: CORDY
Thank you in advance!
Download the package, unzip, look for firmware update. Unzip that, delete boot.img and hboot, and recovery. Zip it back up rename to pg58img and flash for all the firmware update.

[Q] Noob question: Flashing an OTA update via CW Recovery?

As the title says. I did a search & came across a Nexus S post that said: You can flash an OTA update but you will lose root.
Just wanted to know if this is true for the Sensation. Thanks in advance.

No it will not work for sensation.

Oh alright. Mind me asking why?
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e
Because you need stock recovery to install OTA.

Because of the way stock recovery is setup, and the way HTC formats their update.zip files.

Oh so basically It's different from phone maker to phone maker. Thanks for ur replies!
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e
Yes you can.
When downloading, select install later.
Some can then be installed simply by using CWM. E.g. the latest security update.
Others, you need to put the stock recovery on first. See here.
Install su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed.zip in CWM again to get root back.

[Q] Can't install official updates after root

I successfully rooted my phone some time ago...
I'm on stuck ROM 2.3.4 - unbranded, unlocked - European version.
Now there is an update available for the phone. Its the Twitter update. However I can't install it.
I think it something to do with stock recovery, right?
Have you cleared data from market? Also what version of the market do you have? What does it say when you try to install
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
Its not an update from the Market. Its a system update.
SOLVED (how can I change the title?)
How did you solve it?

I had to flash stock recovery...
I thought that after a root u never get any OTA updates anymore.

Can you get HTC updates even with S-off, but with stock rom installed?

Can you still get HTC updates even with S-off, but with stock rom installed?
Or can HTC detect S-off and will not update?
Yes, as long as you don't install a custom recovery.

And if you do have a custom recovery, don't fret.
A short time after the OTA comes out it'll be available for download so you can install via ClockworkMod. That's the power of XDA
You have any idea when OTA comes out?

Your guess is as good as ours.
There is this which states that we should get it in January. My guess they may start a rollout in the middle of February.
