GDR2 Bugs Fixed - Windows Phone 8x by HTC

I had recently updated my HTC 8X (Unlocked) to GDR2. But I got the freezing issue when I played music.
I got a new update today which has apparently fixed the bug.

Too bad I have the bell version and will probably not see the update for a long time

I hear they took it out on pretty well every model.
TBH, microsofts update model sucks. It still goes through the carriers and some models will never receive updates (or never receive them until months after other models/carriers... Like Portico for Bell, getting it months after rogers.)

Guys, Data Sense is part of GDR2 but it depends on your carrier if you see it on your phone. Thats been said about 100k times. Thats what Microsift wrote in the update description.
AFAIK most european carriers dont suppprt it. =P

Or US model, or Canadian model...
So which mythical models support it?

Who is talking about 'models'? Its not about phone models.
It's about your carrier. If your carrier supports it you will see it on your phone with GDR2. If your carrier doesnt you dont see it.
If in doubt ask your carrier.

But can we plz stay on topic? Its about the latest update which came out yesterday. Can somebody plz check the numbers i posted?

Regardless, not one carrier (carrier's "model" i.e. - different carriers versions may have different capabilities) I have heard of included it yet (I think people on wpcentral with unbranded "models" didn't even get it.)
I was under the impression that Microsoft were not going to get strong-armed by carriers, like Bell getting portico months after rogers.
Also, talking about a feature being left out IS talking about the update.

This is about the update AFTER GDR2. I had it for weeks. Still there was another update today. HTC 8Xs had some troubles and this 'after GDR2 update' seems to fix the issues (like the overheating of the sound chip).
Please fin youself a thread about GDR2 not one for updayes to it. And for your information. This is not about 'bullying' - Data Sense like Visual Voice Mail depends on technology employed by the carrier. It is part of the update. And yes i do t know any carrier who uses it. But if you are from Europe i can by now confirm you wont see it. Please ask your carrier about when or if they will deploy Data Sense.
Cheers

Updates tend to be staggered so keep trying. This is, of course, assuming you're on 1.27.161.1 at present
Yay!!
I'm downloading now
About time! Though having said that, the unbranded one was only rolled out last week, so not too long after I guess?
Umm... it's only 27.32 Mb???

It's only a small update, some bug fixes and the like. It's normal
Ah I see -
I'm not sure where I read, but for some reason I thought it was about 330 Mb!?
hmm...
Ok, well it's installed and now loading up
Will give you feedback in a few mins
Hmm....
Nothing spectacular at the moment...
Scrolling is smooth (it was smooth initially anyways though)...
Got a score of 1900 on Quadrant, whereas I was getting 1800 up till now...
Something is synchronising constantly for the last few minutes (the two arrows in a circle), that's about it at the moment
Really need to test this at home - hopefully the signal issue is fixed! (Kept dropping randomly)

You caught me Hope you don't mind , I though my sig looked a buit Naff with nothing in it, lol
but yea, I wish voda would let the OS be, yea ok maybe add an app thats of use, but messing about with stock apps, thats not what I am paying for. I am hoping that rooting s-off will get rid of this vodafone restriction.
I a ( and have asked in the QA section) if it was possible to do what you could do with the old nokias, and thats edit the phones product code so that it would install the offical OTA update (i.e the Eu standard) rather than the branded one.
Also for Ireland
Also now available for Vodafone Ireland. They're possibly the same version of firmware though.

I don't mind at all mate!!
The gold card that worked on previous HTC handsets would've done the job here too but seems it doesn't with the Sensation at present (which worked in much the same way as old Nokia handsets in that it hid the phone real product code)
hopfully they are working on the gold card, I have seens ome threads regarding development and testing of the gold card, but I assume this is more likly to work when s-off has been achieved.
Once we have S-OFF we can go custom so stock RUUs will be pointless. Just use a custom ROM based on the stock ROM!
Have they done anything sneaky in it that will effect s-off later or is the H-Boot the same? I know the last update for the Legend from Vodafone made it a lot more awkward to root it and at the moment neither Htc nor Vodafone have said if Vodafone will allow s-off. Just a bit scared to update and be ****ed later.
well i asked this on the vodafone forum and the mods replied stating that they don't see why Vodafone would not allow the s-off update to go through. I guess its a good sign when you dont just get the generic 'We don't know at this time'
also I am guessing with a modded rom, this would be better than a stock rom, yet how would you go about getting updates for a modded rom? Just wait for a modder to release an update, also with a modded rom, do they just use the base rom i.e euro standard.

[Q] Call quality and new software build update coming out 12/12/11

I did do a search regarding this, but if info has been posted please give me a link,
I have been having issues with the call quality of this phone, i have had a few discussions with AT&T regarding it.. anyways i called HTC and they were very helpful and even acknowledged there is a issue. i was told that there is a OTA update that is being sent out to address this issue, i am currently using build number 2.47.502.7 CL93396 which came with the update back in 08/08/11 . Has anyone else received the update yet, if so what is the build number ? and did it improve call quality ?

The only new update so far is the one for non ATT phones. We will have to wait for ATT to decide if they are going to release a new update at all.

Our updates aren't controlled by HTC. All US phone updates are controlled by the carriers. Only European and unbranded phones phones will get the update from HTC. As all our updates have to be approved by ATT
That rep was probably talking about the recently released update for the Desire HD. Unfortunately, this update doesn't include the Inspire.

Well while i was on the phone with her (HTC) she asked for the ser# and confirmed it was a Inspire, and the firmware
while i do know that updates do come from the provider , she was clear about what it would fix, which was the distorted call issues ...maybe i will call again to verify it..

They most likely did send it to ATT but that is where it will most likely stay. You would be amazed how many WM releases we had that HTC pushed and sent to carriers that never made it to devices. She was right on her end. They are pushing the update but here in the states no OEM controls the software updates. Our carrier does
Yea that's how it goes all my HTC phones in the past got updates but way slower then UK and unbranded due to the FCC we might never get updates like Europe my Verizon wireless phone HTC incredible got a 2.3 update that was very much needed but we never expected vzw to send it out there was like 4 delays and one day it was out lol

Yeah. I read that the desire hd has gotten sense 3.0 update from htc. I hope the inspire will get it. Either sense 3 or ice cream sandwich. At least HTC isn't like samsung. I think when my contract ends in 2013 I'm gonna get a nexus. Reason I didn't get the nexus s was because it was made by samsung. And I had a captivate and had so much trouble with samsung....

The inspire has about a 10% chance of getting the 3.0 update. And ICS I hate to say won't happen
I'm still hoping that the Telus Desire HD will get the update. At least that will give us a good base for the Inspire since they are the same phone physically.

You never know. I was actually a little shell shocked with this last update for the Desire HD. Really wasn't expecting it to get an update either.

Been on ATT smartphones for far to long to hold out any hope. Once the phone goes EOL it is company policy that no more updates are to be given. Per ATT guidlines phones go EOL after 8 months. But here to hoping lol

That thread was discussing the upcoming ota and being ready for it.
This thread is a post update discussion. Also that thread was cleverly and so descriptively named 'update'. I hope to keep this one uncluttered and on topic.
Plus this one is actually in the proper location. So you should probably go troll somewhere else that doesn't make you look ignorant.

While I get what you're saying, it's hard for me to remain calm considering how erratic my signal is. Sometimes the phone just decides it has no sim card even though it does. Data hanging? Yep, I got that. Sporadic text notifications or lack thereof? Check. Having my phone function just as a phone would ease my nerves a little bit but as it stands it does it's own thing and it seriously affects my day to day.

Have you tried the EU update yet? I would suspect this US update is going to be very similar to what is already available in Europe.

to be honest I hope it wont be that similar. I am on 1.78, sim free phone, and it reboots sporadicly when switching from hsdpa to wifi.... I am crossing my fingers that the new radio included in 1.84 will solve this.

You are all just going to love this. According to the tech I was working with, we are going to have to wait for the OTA update notification before we can download. The wording on the website regarding manual download immediately is incorrect. You can only do that in the case where maybe you accidentally dismissed the OTA notification. He tells me that most notifications are received within 72 hours

Thanks, info of people that don't have reboots is also useful as it gives us a control.
im using my htc 8x for almost 3 weeks´now. there was no reboot and no Crash in the meantime.
The lumias have the reboot Problem too, so this survey is pretty useless. I' m pretty sure it has nothing to to with 8X firmware. Vor most people it helps to switch to 3G, 2G or add a manual APN.

In my htc8x there was not any reboot, but i have some battery "problems". Sometimes the % go down quickly, almost 15% per hour, but the phone is cold, is not hot as we expected because of high use of the processor, later i connect the phone to the charger and charges around 40% in five minutes, that is not possible so i have one theory about that: the software that controls the % need a fix, it tells you that you are loosing battery but that is not real

I have to take back my words. I've had two reboots this week:
- While listning to music
- Unlocking lockscreen
I *do* remember having run some 7.5 app before the reboot. But I read MS is dispatching a ota hotfix in December, so here's hoping :victory:
Had the phone since yesterday, didn't get a reboot yet.
Firmware not in survey, got firmware 1532.20.1006.666 with Bell/Aliant in Canada. Bootloader ain't in the survey either, I'm running 0.0.1532.20(156287).

If by now, you haven't received this firmware update from your wireless provider, something is askew and you probably should start looking that. Other than that, if you're not already running on it, you've probably made that choice!
As with all software updates, it's never a bad time to either perform a new backup before commencing with the OTA download, or at least check on what date your showing for the last one (usually, you'll find your handset performs these daily, once every 24 hours). As for me personally, that's my cue to run my backup to my microsd card via the Smartswitch app!
The last friendly reminder I wanted to share witb some of our newcomers that have recently graced us with their presence, is to make certain you're at (or pretty damn close) to 75% charged on your new flagship! The way these new "beasts" we own "bleed-out" our batteries, it's not a bad idea to "up the ante" with the old school rule of having your battery at 50% or more before downloading the update! I saw this same topic mentioned on one of the other forums/channels the other day and thought it was some good advice? Eh, to each his/her own...whatever works for you!

I read Samsung already started rolling out out this update at the beginning of the week(2/15)
to include this handset. I'm TMB and that's a
no-go (so far) and Sprint hasn't rolled it out either.
Anyone with new Intel on this matter, please share as a small monetary contribution will be made available(jk)!

Are you based in USA, and if so which carrier do you have wireless service with?

yep, saw that, but you're an Unlocked, Carrier Branded SM-N986U, not SM-N986U1. That's where my confusion came about until I figured it out looking at FOTA!
I know it's no cause for alarm (with samsung, it happens more often than not) but I didn't see a new build # assigned yet for XAA(as if they hadn't started one, but much more likely they just failed to update their system)!
However, for those of you SM-N986U1 users (like myself) seeing this dialog, we could be in for a little longer wait, meaning we may not have Our Update by this coming Monday (3/1), as a few of the websites I saw earlier were speculating!
(We will know more soon, I'm certain)!

**ONE UI 3.1 SOFTWARE UPDATE IS HERE!**
I'm on the unlocked SM-N986U1 connected to Verizon and still no update for me. I thought having an unlocked phone straight from Samsung would put me in line to get the updates first, but I guess not. I was one of the last N20U users to get 3.0, and now the same seems to be the case for 3.1. I saw articles talking about it being pushed out the Note 10's already.

Yeah...what's up with that samsung? You shoot the new update to our traded-in or sold devices first, after we spent more money with you to be last on the update list again?! wtf...
having 986U, T-mobile unlocked from the included app, I already received the update UI 3.1 here in Africa where I am with my job. The SIM card /carrier is Africell.

I have bought two notes from Samsung directly over the years because I was under the impression if I bought the phones straight from Sammy I would get more features and faster updates. But as time goes on I see now that the unlocked phones are second class to Sammy. It seem to me like Sammy can't help but stroke off the carriers and bend to what they want.
Finally got mine today. I am with AT&T

I'm glad to see Samsung always improving their camera function as that is one of their claim-to-fames, one that snagged-me as I've said many times! However, I was sorta expecting to see something thrown in the mix about changes implemented to extend battery life...wasn't just me, right?
Got it today. U1 XAA running on visible.

Yes, Texas and not impressed with it. Much ado about nothing!
