OTA updates

Hey all,
I just got my HTC dream, unlocked, running on the AT&T network. My question is this: If I stick with the official RC30 rom will I still get OTA updates when T-mo releases them?

HA HA WHERES MY CUPCAKE!!
Now, to be serious, if you stick with the original RC30, you will recieve the official OTA updates no matter what network you are on.

You will need a data connection, either wifi or having a data plan on AT&T.

As long as you have a stock build (not a rooted version), you will get the update, regardless of carrier.

[Q] Updating DS to the new shipped ROM

Hi... I am here in the Philippines and wanted to flash my DS using the RUU_Saga_S_HTC_Europe_2.10.401.8_Radio_20.4801.30.
0822U_3822.10.08.04_M_release_225161_signed.exe found on the stock shipped ROMs. I just want to ask the following:
1. Since it's a Europrean release, is it compatible for my DS in the Philippines?
2. Will I still be able to receive and install future official OTA updates after flashing this ROM?
3. What's new with this release compared to the prior 2.3.5 release?
I am thinking of flashing since HTC hasn't released the official OTA in Asia yet. I heard it might be end of December. Couldn't wait no more... TIA.

1. To flash a version for different region you will have to use a goldcard. Once installing it, there is no more warranty for you even when it is Stock, since you bought your phone in the Philippines with the local stock version on it. Using the European can also affect the performance, for example the baseband of your mobile carrier can be different, and the radio can have some differences accordingly.
2. You will receive and be able to install all future updates for Europe. But to repeat again - even using Stock, but for another region if you have problems with the device this is an indication that you have changed the software = no warranty.
3. There is some change in the libraries. Up to this moment the reported imporovement, as far as I know is a working Exchange synchronisation
In general if you insist on using Stock software on your phone is better to wait for an official update for your region.

Thanks for that information. I guess I'll have to keep on waiting. Thanks a lot

update baseband?

is it possible to update baseband on this phone?
my phone was shipped with 0.15 and i think thats why i've been having the wifi issues. (rebooting nonstop anytime i connect to wifi)

Is there a newer version than 0.15 ?? I havent seen it..
And at the moment its not possible to flash radios with S-ON it can brick your phone. If you get it via an OTA update you will be ok

all the T-MO demo units we have in my store are on 0.16
i've been tempted to exchange it, btu since it's been rooted i'm holding back because i dont want to pay the out of warranty fee.

There has been at least 1 update but I think it went out before the phone launched. I picked up my phone on launch day with a 0.16 base band. Another user on this forum reported getting an OTA to the latest (current) build of 1.53.531.16 which I assume also updated the base band to 0.16
You could try a manual check in by dialing *#*#2342546#*#* in case your wondering 242546 spells "checkin"

Unfortunately i'm not on the stock ROM anymore so that isn't an option.
After doing a bit of research, it seems like the only way to get the baseband update would be for me to somehow revert to the prerelease TMO ROM, then wait for the OTA that was sent out to the prerelease devices which has the baseband update included.
Which is basically impossible, because no one is going to be running that prerelease ROM right now.
So i'm basically clueless at this point. probably just going to see if i can warranty swap it through HTC and hope they don't care about the bootloader being tampered.
Any input from anyone is definitely appreciated!

thanks man i saw that! but i need something similar for the t-mo US ROM.
i'd have to find a prerelease ROM, then wait for the OTA to the release version.

Once the base band is updated you could flash a stock rom or even restore your own personal back up. The international phones use the same chips as the TMOUS phones. How come you don't want to update it if your having problems?

I definitely want to update, but I doubt i'll receive the OTA to update the baseband since i'm on TMO US..
Looking through the thread looks like no US people have tried. I might give it a shot just for kicks. Hopefully it works.
edit - it looks like it definitely won't work if you're on TMO US, because the update has not been pushed out through TMO's servers. The update comes from the carriers, not HTC directly.

anyway problem solved.
ended up getting a replacement from HTC. should be fine.
edit - LOL the replacement came with 0.15 baseband and the kernel from march 29th. retail release versions came with a april 6th kernel and 0.16 baseband.
now i'm clueless. just wait a couple weeks and maybe process another exchange.

haha well my replacement phone came....
still had the same 0.15 baseband as the original pre-release version.
i assumed the replacement would be updated, apparently i was wrong. I might just hang onto this one for a month or so without rooting or unlocking the baseband just in hopes they push an OTA to update my baseband.

can someone teach me how to upgrade my baseband to .15

[Q] Do I have the wrong version of CM11?

I purchased a chinese version of the Oneplus One. The international one was too hard to get, and the only hardware difference from what I could see was the 750mhz LTE band. Before purchasing I asked if it was running ColorOS of Cyanogen. They said it was running Cyanogen. I assume they were flashing this with the CM11S rom in an attempt to capitalize on the demand for a phone that was impossible to buy. And hey, it worked because I bought one.
From what I can tell, I should have gotten a system update to 4.4.4 by now. so i checked the software version...
CyanogenMod version: 11.0-XNPH25R
Baseband version: MPSS.DI.2.0.1.c7-00020-M8974AAAAANPZM-1
Kernel version: 3.4.0cyanogenmod-g3fd6261
Build numberZ KVT49L
Is this version any different to the CM11S that should be running on international versions of the Oneplus One?

I also have the China version of One Plus One. It was already unlocked and running CM11s when i got it. Mine was version XNPH22R and i have trouble updating using OTA so i just straight away flashed the XNPH33R manually via fastboot. China version runs ColosOS while International version runs CM11s. You already have CM11s so it should be same as International but your version are outdated. The latest version is XNPH33R. Try updating via OTA first. If it fails then you can try flashing it manually.
You can grab the update at the bottom of this page.

Make sure you know what you're doing or you'll end up in a bootloop like me.

There's only one version of CM11S and you're on it. For some reason your OTA system seems to be broken though. You can find the OTA updates and flash them manually. Refer to my index thread.

Do I download this update?

So my assumption was that when I downloaded one of the GPE roms and switched to the T-Mobile version since I'm using T-Mobile on the Verizon variant I wouldn't get official updates.
Right now I got this and I'm wondering if it will brick my device if I install it. It probably thinks I'm using the T-Mobile variant when I'm using the Verizon variant with a lollipop rom on kit-kat firmware (I'm also not sure how to update to lollipop firmware).

Hell no.But first check rom thread if there is an ota update for this variant.If not,not don't download it
TO check or update firmware.
Go to this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2723159.Check it how to do it.
Then go to bootloader & check your current firmware to makesure whether you have KK or Lp firmware

There are two ota updates from early/mid march but I haven't got to downloading them yet.

Check with your ROM creator, but generally no, 5.1 isn't stable yet. We may need to wait for RUU before it can be adopted.

RUU is the stock ROM right?
