I did manage to download the first 16mb "pre-update" but every time I go to check for updates it won't do anything at all. I've tried restarting and even changed between a few apns and nothing helps? Ive seen people having this problem but no solutions. Can anyone help me?

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.

Anyone figured out a way to remove HTCLinkify on the new rom? The old method doesn't seem to work.
Are you rooted? You should be able to with an app like Root Explorer, Rom Toolbox, or Titanium Backup.

Yep but when you remove it all links stop working. On 1.85 there was a setting in build.prop that needed change. It no longer works on 2.2
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
The old hack is not working anymore, at least I could not get it to work, I even tried adding the second extra line to the build prop. That sucks! Especially when just about all the other mods are working. Friggin apple!
I was planning to move to the rooted stock 2.20, but I won't move from 1.85 until there is a fix for this nonsense.

I think the build prop edit will still work on any rom without the new hboot. Which is anything not the OTA or RUU. I would verify that but I think that's correct.
How do I know if it is removed?
One way is to go to settings and see if there is an App Associations menu item. Another is to email yourself a YouTube link, And when you click the link when you receive the email, if it asks you which application you'd like to use, then great success.

I used this fix from the EVO 4G forum.
I have the app associatons on Settings, but cant corroborate if the links are working
without linkify.
Honestly not sure how it should work.
I'm using the apk he posted.

Is there any confirmation of this? I'm wanting to move to a stock rooted 2.20 ROM, but I've been waiting until I can confirm there is a way to fix this "fix".
De-Linkify-ication and tethering, plus root would be a-ok for me until a full on, official Jelly Bean release.
Can someone on the stock/rooted 2.20 kindly report back?

I'm on the 2.20 stock rooted rom and the build.prop edits do not disable linkify. I used to do it the same way on 1.85/1.89/etc and it worked fine on those, but does not on 2.20.

Not sure what I'm doing right or wrong but I have not seen Linkify come back on any rom after the first time I removed it. I'm currently running stock 2.2 with no hotspot hack, generic icons, no EQS, and the Sense 4.5 camera. I never wipe 'system' when flashing new roms either. Not sure if any of this could be a reason but I'm just trying to help.

Removing the apk just means you can't change the app associations. It doesn't fix the inherent issue, which is that we want a menu to pop up and give us options for what to do when we touch a link.
Previous to 2.20, all the AT&T base roms could be fixed by adding one line to build.prop and changing one other. This doesn't work any longer.
Well,
The link that I posted on the previous page solved that for me.
I have an apps associations on Settings, and when I click on a link on gmail it asks me if I want to open it with Chrome or the stock browser.
The thing is there are 2 entries in the build.prop for 'ro.da1.enable=true'
one at the top and another one on the bottom of the file.
I tried the method you just mentioned and it still doesn't work.
Can someone please tell me if I can your this RUU for my HOS CID:HTC__038 (India make). I want to go to stock in order to update to 4.0.4 but dont have a back up. Please help!

I don't think the HTC__44 will work on the HTC__038. I have got the second model and I have tried to load an European RUU but I didn't get it because it said the Customer Id (CID) was wrong.
I guess the same will happen with the Asian RUU.
Why cant we change CID inside the RUU?

Thats ok. Once I get the nandroid I will be able to play along with it i guess. I tries installed the CID__044 but it got stuck in the middle as it always does for the wrong version ones. I dont see why it has not been possible to tweak the RUU to be fooled into feeling it is a different CID and not the other way round. Like change the CID code for the RUU. Just a random thought.

Well If you wanna install TD its simple. Make a backup of your present system. But SAVE A COPY OF IT ON YOU PC, it will in you TWRP folder. This is where I went wrong. After upgrading ROM I got bootloop. Just restarted the phone to recovery and the SD card got locked. In order to unblock the SD card had to reformat and kaput!! I know there are ways to fix the issue I told earlier but chances of hard-bricking becomes high. This will be simpler! remember to back up the entire phone on PC before messing with ROMS. :silly:
So ya, TD is safe and stable. If you already on 4.0.4 go for TD v4. else you will have to start from v2 and move your way up!. if you need more help just post back.
Happy to help.
PS: Do you have a backup of you older version of stock. If possible can you upload whatever stock you have. I will PM you my public dropbox address if you need it!
That's the thing... since there was no India ruu i never tried to mess with the roms.... Have been on stock always.... The only reason I want trick droid is for Google now... But won't if there is a chance that I may not be able to get back to stock plus I'm fed up of restoring apps and data from my previous phone every time I change ROMs

Well I have managed to screw more than once while trying to install ROMs and the TWRP backups have always delivered. Not once have I had a problem. So if you follow the steps the way I mentioned I believe you wont be sorry. Just keep a backup outside the phone. Something people dont mention while installing ROMs!!
Plus google now is completely pathetic if you ask me. havent used it once and had to revert back to normal google as it kept popping things without need!! Guess its more guess for people always on the move.
I think I'll wait for official jb ... Have no real problems with the current rom and I'm too lazy for new rom setup... Is there any way to only root while remaining on stock and keeping the ability to get ota updates intact?

Well you are on stock as long as you don't install a custom ROM! Using a custom recovery will not kill your OTAs so just Unlock bootloader using HASOON's Method. I think it is the easiest. you could try adb if you are comfortable with it. Use goomanager to get TWRP. any other method will be a lot more complex. then have all the rooted privileges without loosing stock. Just make sure to lock bootloader before getting an OTA. thats all.
PS: The above it just speculation from my own reading through the forums. I was on a rooted stock system for a while and it worked fine. Theoretically what I have mentioned should work but post it on some of the dev forums to get a proper reply!
Ok, I did it again. ****ing tried to root as the international instead of evita. I need the application, not anything with CMD. a recovery tool. Pretty sure it is HTC official that will reset everything and maybe update it? That's the program that worked last time but I can't find it now to save my life. Thanks for the help in advance. I'm getting pissed. :crying:

I've tried myself and I ended up saying that I have something modded or something from the ota download. I finish downloading the ota for sense 5.5 and I've tried to lock the hboot and unlocked. Same results no matter what. I think it's the missing apps. The calculator and some others. Just download the stock rooted. You'll end up rooting the phone anyways. What is the point of that?
@Timmaa. I've seen you all over the place when I search RUU 3.18.
My situation:
Wife's phone
ATT One X
U'Bootloader
S-off
Rooted
Cm11 currently
3.18 radio
Problem is battery is ok. Could be better. Biggest thing is signal. She has 2-3 bars on Hspa* where we live. However calls don't seem to go through and if they do, its hours or even days later. I've tried 3 different APNs And its the same thing. I'm not sure what to do. My wife uses her phone a lot for clients so I'm getting reamed for messing her phone up.
Note: normal for signal to go from like 107 to 75 when a call comes in?
I guess I'm stuck and wanted to know.if.stock would be the way to go or if perhaps you might have a better solution to test out.
Thanks a million.

Have you tried another rom? Just to rule that out? If not try a generic stock rom. If I remember correctly cm uses a different area for the radio install, I'm more of a sense guy personally but if you check the radio thread there are versions specific to cm. run a stock on and Have a few test calls come in and see how it reacts. And don't forget I backup your current setup in case the problems persist you can revert back and start next step to diagnose the issue further.

Aosp ROMs don't look in a different spot for the radio anymore, they haven't since about July or August. The radio is possibly what's causing the issue though depending on which ROM/firmware combination is installed.
