OTA T-MO USA HTC One S update failure

I have the HTC one s T-mobile USA version and my OTA update fails everytime. I do not have a ROM installed but I am rooted because I wanted to use a wifi hot spot app. the phone restarts and shows failed on the CW recovery screen at the bottom. It states it cannot mount the SD card? anyone else have this issue? Any one know a way to push the update through? This is the 58.31mb optimisation update...Thanks!

You will need the stock recovery for the Ota to work.

I got that too. The update wasn't supposed to fix much. I remember for the Nexus One, developers used to repackage the updates as flashable zips, and I'm surprised that nobody did that.

Ok that makes sense, I have done some searching and can not find where to get the stock recovery, do you know a thread that has one posted? Thanks

What exactly does it fix ? Or where can i find a log or more info on it ??

The 2nd link is the stock recovery.

The OTA update will also fail to install if /system/build.prop has been modified. If so, just restore the original and try again.

stock recovery and still failing
I tried flashing the stock recovery and i am still getting a failed update. any ideas?

Did you delete any of the system apps?
Some have reported they got the update after going back to stock recovery and performing a factory reset of the device.

Yes sir, tried that as well... now with the stock recovery is looks as though its going to install the update (when booting into recovery) but then a exclamation point appears with the device in the background. When i jump back to the option that are listed in the stock recovery it tells me that it was unable to mount the SD card and every option that i select just reboots the device.

I would just try to install a stock debloated ROM from the dev section, they'll be updated to the newest firmware anyway plus you'll get rid of all the boat.

yeah I went ahead and did that with Axiom Rom.. runs really well and has a few fixes in all the right places for my taste. Thanks for the info sir.

and just another note to add as well, the Axiom Rom has the 1.84 RUU baked into the ROM already so it accomplished the mission of getting the phone updated. Thanks again gents.

9 Stupid Things That Mess With Your S Advance

1. Flashing a 4.0+ ROM/Kernel when you're using Gingerbread
If you want use a Jellybean/Kitkat ROM firstly you should upgrade your device to stock 4.1.2 otherwise get ready for brick.
2. Flashing CoCore kernel when you're using AOSP ROMs
Also you can't use this perfect kernel on AOSP ROMs (Cyano-AOKP-PA...) For some reason cocafe didn't add support for these ROMs. But AOSP kernels are based on CoCore. Shortly don't try to flash CoCore kernel on AOSP ROMs.
3. Writing false code in terminal
As you remember; early of our development there wasn't simple tools like UKF (and Triangle Away didn't support us.) You had to write DD codes in Terminal Emulator for flashing kernel and resetting warranty. Stretch out your fingers because even if you write false a single letter GUESS WHAT hardbrick.
4. Disconnecting your Odin process
Don't f*ck with Odin when he works with your device. (AKA rooting, recovery or firmware flash) If you disconnect your device at the false time, maybe you won't see Android anymore.

}
5. Flashing a China ROM when you're using Un-China device
Yes they have different things in their firmwares. If you didn't buy your Janice from China don't flash China firmwares.
6. Flashing a Gingerbread ROM when you're using Jellybean
You can't simply downgrade your device. You should have proper files for downgrading after you can flash any Gingerbread ROM/Firmware. MORE INFO
7. Ticking Re-Partition
If you're using Janice, re-partition is here for only downgrading. Don't use if you're rooting/flashing a regular firmware.
8. Dirty Installs
Clean install comes with stability. Dirty install might causes bootloops, softbricks or errors. It's your choice.
9. HAMMER
A hammer can cause too much thing.

So dear noobs (newbies), before spamming in Original dev threads or in inappropriate places to ask question about bla bla, take a look here, it may be useful! Good job King

I'm so regreted that I flash a China version and 16G's pit .So I get a hard brick.No recovery .No downing.No any reaction with 301K plugin..... What can I do to save my I9070?

Actually, what did you do with your device is? I read you mention PIT-16GB, if you want to downgrade your device to the stock GB? Or do you want to do an update of stock GB to stock JB?
Well, since you've mentioned PIT-16GB, then I assume that you want to downgrade your device to stock GB. Now, you need to consider is whether your device is 8GB or 16GB? If 8GB then use the PIT-8Gb. If 16Gb, then use PIT-16Gb when you flash through Odin. Try clicking on the "MORE INFO" above, then you will see a thread in how to downgrade your device.
Mmmh ... I guess my answer is too easy to digest. I just read your post on the other thread. Maybe you should do as suggested by Senior @shut_down

you cant do it here. this is development forums, no cracking/pirating software allowed here. and secondly, most of these box were against XDA rule, they didnt support open source ( they charge for the support) and usually using illegal method that why those box able to bypass frp, write directly to the bootloader, repartition whole emmc, but you dont know how these things work. they even stole many things from here, like feature to unlock bootloader, adding custom recovery, SuperSU, without proper credits to original devs.

Xperia 1 root guide

Update on 27.6.2019
Now Magisk Canary (19303) has fixed the boot loop issue.
Everyone can use the newest Magisk manager, select "Canary Channel" to patch the boot.img.
First , unlock your Xperia 1.
go to
https://developer.sony.com/develop/open-devices/get-started/unlock-bootloader/
to unlock your Xperia 1.
If you can not find the Xperia 1, you can choose Xperia xz2.
It also give you the right unlock number.
Second, patch your boot.img
the newest Magisk 19.4 is not supported for Xperia 1.
You must use the Magisk 19.0 .
downlowd the rom and unpack it, find the "boot_X-FLASH-ALL-A2CD.sin", it's the xperia 1's boot.img.
downlowd the magisk manager, install and open it.
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1qzBPd-whyZm-bX2UyC0kCNjn89bZvAtV
Go to settings, tap the "Update channel", and select "Custom", then type it with this
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/v...d8df2008632bd67e8437651b3ef7/custombuild.json
Go back to the Magisk manager, tap the "INSTALL", and "select and patch a file", select the "boot_X-FLASH-ALL-A2CD.sin", wait a moment.
then you will get a patch_boot.img.
Go to Fastboot mode, and flash it. "Fastboot flash boot xxx.img"
Enjoy it.
I will put my patched boot.img here, but my xperia1 mode is J9110,CHINA MODEL. it may be not supported for you.

I currently are using a xz1, i rooted before a drm backup existed, and yes, there are drm fix solutions, but you loose forever the video enchantment even with it.
If you are Ok with that, then go ahead, rooting is always great

i'm not a video guy and don't even take many pictures lol
so u make me thinking about lol

Well, you if you can live a few months without root, will be a better option. In my case i will wait, i will freeze or remove via adb the bloatware meanwhile.
One of the best points of the Xperia 1 is the video consumption capabilities, and i think a lot of the "magic" would be lost without the video enchantment and Bravia features.

Do you know how to flash firmware for another country?
Thank you

Question Downgrade build android Samsung S22 Ultra

Just a simple question. Is it possible? Downgrade build android Samsung S22 Ultra? I have been googling and so far almost no info about this. I have the mode; sm-s908u1 which I believe is unlocked, I can use any carrier.
Any info will be much appreciated.
Extra: I just want to downgrade to continue enjoying the call recording.

You are limited by the bootloader version to how far you can roll back.
You can go to the same or higher significant number but not lower.

And will most likely need to do a factory reset I tried it and was able to downgrade but had to factory reset.

Always completely backup critical data before you mess with the firmware...

Thanks everyone for taking the time to answer me. So sad that I won't be able to do it. I am tired of samsung. I did a full backup and I gonna try anyway if it works I will let you know.

Not on a stock Samsung. The bootloader has to be unlocked as it's version is what dictates what roms can be loaded.
You can load the same or higher rev version as the bootloader but not lower.
In my case "2" is that critical value. I can flash Android 9 or higher. If a OTA upgrade flashes the bootloader to a higher version you're stuck with it. One reason I disable OTA upgrades/updates.

Wow thank you so much for such good explanation. It means I can only downgrade/upgrade the firmware's enclosed in blue but no the rest right?
The bootloader that came with the phone when extracted from the box is S908EXXU2AVH9.

Exactly. It seems sort of convoluted at first.
This is another useful article on Android partition structure in general.
One rule that serves me well is this...
Rule #1 - if the firmware is fast, stable and fulfilling its mission, let it be!
Anything Android version in general that is 9 or higher is reasonably secure unless you do stupid things. Even if one is running the latest firmware and software upgrades/updates... there's no saving dumb bunnies
Upgrades/updates can and do break Samsung's.
If a OTA firmware upgrade updates the bootloader version you are stuck with it. Look before you leap...
