Hmm seems strange. Have you contacted HTC (not that they will be able to really help!) It might seem like a hassle but maybe try rooting so you can update the radio version?

yeah I will try to root my device tonight and see if that helps
will report back!

if you are going to use the latest way of doing it (via a linux live cd) you might want to start downloading it now as the servers are very slow!

too bad I am not home yet..... might aswell do it the old way then as I got all the files and so on...

Iphone wifi vs androidz

So I was in school today and found out that it has a wifi through out the whole building.. and my friends iphone 4 was able to pick it up however our beloved androids (desire Z) wasn't able to detect or pick it upp..any thoughtts on why not cuz I'm going nutts here.

Well the iphone might have better reception then our DZ. However what radio do you have? This can affect performance. Roms can also make a difference. If I remember right I'm running th .30 radio, which isn't the latest but it has alsways worked well for me. I don't have an iphone to compare so I don't know if it better or worse.

Is it truly visible, or is the SSID disabled and he added the network manually?

Optus branded just received 1.29.980.11

Just a quick FYI guys. If you own an Optus branded HOX you can download 1.29.980.11 ota.
I can't really comment on any fixes yet as my only problem has been WiFi honestly. Will report back once I've used WiFi a little.

Anyone received 4.0.4 update for Optus HOX?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
I'm with Virgin here in Australia and recently, i mailed them and asked about their plans to update our phones to Android 4.0.4 with Sense 4.1. Their reply strongly gave me the impression that they didn't even know of an existing update or even what the term "base" means. It makes me glad that i unlocked my bootloader and rooted my phone so that i wouldn't have to wait for their slow service to catch up.
I'm with virgin but my cid is Optus.
You might have the same meaning Optus will be pushing it.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
So have you heard when they are pushing the update?
No mate. Early September on their site but who knows? I don't even care as 1.29 is running well for me.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app

Status.. Optus approved 4.0.4.
Awaiting manufacturer deployment.

WiFi issues

Hi guys.
I don't know if its just me, but when I'm using WiFi on my phone it really struggles to connect to it at times when my laptop is showing full WiFi.
Is there a way to make it so that my WiFi receiver is more powerful so I can actually connect to the router?
Thanks

Voda or HOX?

Earlier today I noticed I had no signal, now I'm at home and the signal is still nothing.

Most probably work going on, on your local mast , if it randomly just done it. The hox originally had its defects and problems, now they've been ironed out in the new 2.17 update, its just flawless!
Sent from my HTC One X
O2 mast has been pretty much none functional for the last 3 days.
Google for a service status normally they provide you with a web page you can out your post code in and see what's going on.

Put your sim in another phone to rule yours out!
Check Vodafones website they should have a current status type thing. I'm on Voda as well and whilst in London signal is good some other places it's notorious. Was down Portsmouth last week and had major network issues down there, usually sitting on g most the day and this resulted in severe battery drain!

Can't update

Hello all,
I bought HTC One V from Taiwan and using it here in India. Today I got a message that an update is available for the system.
As soon as the update download finished, and when I clicked install it showed that the device software have been modified and that it can't update.
It's strange as I never rooted it.
Also my mobile is having a lot of problems with network connectivity. I live in the middle of city but still I guess a cross over the network bars. And if sometimes I do get then only 2 bars out of 5.
Could anyone tell me what is the problem? I am having a feeling that my handset us defective. Maybe I am wrong.
Thank you for reading
Praveer
Root it n install custom Rom,everything ll be fine...
Sent from my HTC One V using xda app-developers app
Well I don't want to root it.
Thanks
Well you are going to have to stick to stock with no updates then. I suggest you open up to rooting, stock roms are junk.
Sent from my One V using xda app-developers app
So is the problem normal or not. I mean is it common to get that message or no ? Or I have been cheated.
Thanks
I assume its normal but only say that because of all the other phones that do the same thing yours did. Don't feel cheated, while HTC isnt supporting our devices anymore, the fine devs here are.
Sent from my One V using xda app-developers app
Well let's see what happens. Given the mobile for replacement.
Thanks
