[Q] New Software update Available

Hi
I installed v10d via cmw, My phone recently checked for updates OTA & informed me that there was a new update available. The file size is 5.04mb, When i try to install it says invalid software?
Has anyone else noticed this?
Regards
Mark

that software update brings you upto date with the 10d version, think i was on 10b before that

i am currently on the jul 10D version and it is now telling me i have another update but wont let it install so im not sure whats going on really...

Maybe the v10D you installed with CWM has a different region code or something making the updater think there's a newer version available. I'm pretty sure the juli update is the latest one.
Be glad your phone refused to install the update as updating OTA with CWM installed is a pretty sure way to brick your phone at the moment.

Once you have CWM on the device you cannot install any official updates anymore.
I have rooted the O3D and checked for updates and had the same file of 5.04mb
I was on stock v10b and the update just brings you to v10d nothing special .

New OTA Update 1.54.401.3

Hi,
i got this update OTA but i didn't install it ... i use a Custom-Rom and CWM ...
https://www.dropbox.com/s/8tssaejz0...1.54.401.2_release_257016cuxtfbx8dmv4o4ai.zip
Does anybody know whats better now?
Thank you.
#edit#
trying to contact HTC ... but they even don't know what they deliver ...

Just installed this update manually, and a newer kernel and bootloader was installed - that seems about it tbh, considering the tiny size of the update.
EDIT: Kernel is still 2.6.35.10, but has a more recent date (About Phone lists it as Wed April 11) compared to the previous kernel's date, so I'm guessing that there may be some battery life improvements due to this newer kernel

How have you downloaded the OTA File? Today I received a notification that the version 1.57.707.3 is available.
I'm using ZaSa_4chacha_GB1.57_2.0 (Asia 1.57.707.2) and haven't installed the update yet, because I believe that it won't work.

Do these OTA updates remove root, my phone has been bugging me for a while.

does it remove the dialer bug ?

Update broke Wifi
Got the update OTA today on my daughter's ChaCha. After installing it wifi is broke. Trying to enable Wifi results in 'Error'. No idea why, no idea how to fix it either... Trying to return to previous version but that's refused by RUU... Now what! :-(

OTA update file
OTA update file: [pm me for mediafire link due to stupid spam rule]
I have problems updating my unlocked ChaCha (error: signature verification failed).
Notice that the hboot version in this update is 1.13.
Perhaps someone can look into this. :fingers-crossed:

OTA Update to Android 4.0.4 for S4 is Out!

Update: the first users got this OTA update on their stock, non rooted, untouched HTC One S (S4). Everyone could choose to wait to get the update in the normal way. It will come now or later for all. If you can't wait, you can also choose to aply the full RUU from the RUU thread.
Here is the OTA update: OTA_Ville_U_ICS_40_S_HTC_Europe_2.21.401.10-1.78.401.2_release_271130unb1vtlbbuv42jp3.zip (download from HTC server or use this mirror). For now you can't install this update if you don't follow the steps down here.
Wifi issue fixes and new EA apps are part of the update. There is also a Rescue app included.
Required
- SuperCID (some kind of universal carrier ID/ region, named the 'developers region'). Everyone can install SuperCID, if you're on US T-Mobile and even if you're on a Chinese device. And everyone need it for now, even the European users. Ofcourse you can always restore your original cidnumber if you want.
- The stock 1.78 WWE ROM (d-h.st mirror or hotfile.com mirror). Also everyone need this ROM and everyone can install this rom if you have got SuperCID.
- Back-up of your files on computer. This update will format all partitions, even the sd card!
Let's get this on a list
- First you need an unlocked bootloader.
- Then you need root.
- After that you can get SuperCID on your phone (thanks hard5ter for reporting). Some users can start here cause they have already an unlocked bootloader and root.
* If you are not on stock 1.78.401.2, you have to install the RUU 1.78 WWE. Before you can do that you have to relock your bootlader. You will loose root, you will get stock Recovery and above all you got the right stock ROM for the OTA.
* If you are on stock 1.78.401.2 already, you can go to the next step after installing stock Recovery. If you want to keep root while updating to the new Android, use 'root survival mode' in SuperSU Pro or use this free OTA RootKeeper. But you need to install stock Recovery.
- Now your phone is ready, you do have SuperCID, relocked bootloader, stock Recovery and the stock WWE ROM. Time to boot your phone, check for updates and download and install that OTA update to get Android 4.0.4.
New Radio_1.06s.50.02.27_2_10.08.50.04L
- Fastboot method of flashing the new Radio gives a 'signature verify fail' error
- The PJ40IMG.zip method in bootloader will also not install any RADIO update.
- In TWRP Recovery you can also flash RADIO zip files. Dima901 replaced the Radio in one of the zip's there with the new Radio and was able to update his Radio trough TWRP, but for most of us that won't work for some reason. If you got stuck in TWRP keep pressing the power button, you have to swipe the slider to the right of your screen, still keep pressing the power button and your phone will shut down. It looks like that this method is only working for certain ROM users like CM, AOKP and MUI users.
- I updated my RADIO by just upgrading to Android 4.0.4. You can do that in a few minutes. Make a nandroid back-up first and you will be back on your current ROM in less then a hour but with the new RADIO.

Hello,
It looks like some guy received an OTA update to Android 4.0.4 with base version 2.21.401.10. He was on the Ville U WWE (RUU_Ville_U_HTC_Europe_1.78.401.2_Radio_0.16.31501 S.17_2_10.23.31501S.10L_release_258480_signed)
Can't wait until someone share the file name of the OTA, so we can all download it from fotadl.htc.com.
The version number looks strange to me. 2.XX.XXX.XX is what we expect, cause HTC highers the number with every new Android version (we are now on 1.84.XX.XXX.XX), X.XX.401.XX stands for WWE, so that's also what we expect, but X.21.XXX.XX sounds a high number for a first update. But whatever, let's get this thing.
Here is a screenshot of the new version. Thanks for reporting cualla84.

We need a breaking news section of this forum. Nice find.

The requested URL /OTA_Ville_U was not found on this server.

Lol, it was just a link for example. I didn't get my hands on that OTA update, cause we don't know the filename yet. HTC stores al the OTA files on the fotadl.htc.com server, so probably our OTA is already public on that server, but we can't download it as long as we don't know the filename.

Mmm,, ok i now understand. Thanks. Im waiting for it xD

There are some downloads with kernel 3.0.16 on http://www.htcdev.com/devcenter/downloads for EU WWE 1.11.401.109 and 1.11.401.101, might be related?
Edit: these seem to be for VilleC2, filenames are villec2-ics-crc-3.0.16-f4c3948.zip and villec2-ics-crc-3.0.16-503c44f.zip so not related to the OTA, also explains the lower version numbers on these perhaps.

NXT-L29 no Nougat yet

Hi there
I am still on build NXT - L29C636B193 with June secuirity patch.
I have the dual SIM L29 4gb gold variant. I am in the UK.
Still waiting for Nougat. From reading around it seems that almost everyone has already recieved the official OTA...
I have also seen people manually flashing the OTA but I am worried I may lose my warranty and make certain apps like Android Pay unavailable.
All advice is appreciated
Thanks:laugh:

If you want to have warranty, stay at stock.
There is a major difference between nougat and mm (in look and performance for me). I dont need my warranty because - 1) ive bought it in china , 2) what does warranty cover? if i crash screen - warranty is worthless, if i crash software - i can fix it by myself - so its useless...
I ve swaped soft for european L29C432B320 from DL-00 and i dont care about OTA or some****.
Just flashed, rooted and using as always. For me root is necessary, so warratny is useless anyway.
The only thing is that if something bricks your phone like e.g. melting in pocket (vide SGS Note7 ) there is nothing you can do...
So - for me - just manually flashed nougat and root it and its ok.

Thanks

I receive the Ota only to the converted C432.
On original C636 no Ota Updates

Can I load the latest update onto the device so that the system update menu will recognise the update?
Maybe use dload or somrthing?
Can someone point me in the right direction?
Thanks

Hi there
When I contacted the European chat helper in the Hi care app, they said that my model the NXT - L29 will not get OTA updates while i am not in Southeast Asia?
I don't know if this true as it sounds bizarre, most devices are still updated when not in their home land.
What model number is yours?
Thanks

checksum error
Hi there,
the update appears and it starts to download, but most of the time, I get a checksum error. Only 2 times (out of perhaps 8 downloads) it downloaded properly, so far. The device restarted and got stuck at the "Your device got unlocked and can't be trusted." and "The device is now booting" prompt. I let it rest for more than 3 hours, but nothing happened.
So: none of the categories in the poll apply to me: I seem to get the update, but cannot install it.

I finally figured what was wrong: I had a bad (as in not accepted by the system) update in the dload folder of the sdcard. Thus even after flashing TWRP via adb or the stock firmware upgrade, that was tried and denied, first.
Once I removed that folder, I could successfully install TWRP and the latest CM/Lineage build (alpha-4).
To actually answer your questions: Yes, CH, and yes, bootloader unlocked.

I had manually uppdated to B521 and tried to update to B563 trough the Firmware Finder without success.
Then I downgraded to B193, tried update to B563 and failed.
Updated to B211 then and did factory reset. After restart I got new firmware showing in system update in settings.
So I´m guessing it´s official OTA update as I didn´t update through Firmware Finder.

If your device is rooted or if you have TWRP installed, you can't apply the update via OTA
If you want to update via OTA, you will have to unroot your device and undo any changes that you made to the system partition and you will have to replace TWRP with a copy of your stock recovery. Then you can apply the update. You will have to root and install TWRP again after the update is applied.
Or, you can manually download the update from the internet and then use a PC to manually flash via your device's compatible flashtool or via fastboot(whichever is intended to flash firmware on your device).

Good Morning Everyone,
@Droidriven, thanks for your kind response, but I did what you suggest, re-install Nougat Rom from Htc official link deliberately did not root it at first, click on the OTA & yet, got same complain.
I even tried 2.41.401.41--3.16.401.2_S-On_firmware.zip with it but doesn't still work.
But from my research, this is what I found out that works..
* The Phone (HTC 10) is Hong Kong Unlocked Version with build number 2.41.401.4, [email protected] as its base band.
the ROM that will work must share same details with the one provided above.
Anyone that has Oreo 8.0 (2.41.401.4) Update in RUU file format, should Please kindly share its download link with me, I regret the inconveniences, thanks in advance.
