Orange UK OTA Update - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Has anyone had this yet? If so where can I download it?
Thanks

Not seen or heard of it, mate. But try this on your phones keypad. *#*#2432546#*#* and see if that prompts you.

Ignored OTA update - now can't get it >.<

I checked this morning if there are system updates available for my Desire. Luckily i found one but decided to download it later.
Now i just tried again to search for this update but it keeps telling me that there are no updates available.
I allready tried rebooting - doesnt help.
I guess, that my decission is stored in cache somewhere - but i don't know where exactly
Anyone knows a solution, how I can find my update again?
I have the same issue. Canceled the OTA as i was on a pulic wifi and busy... no it tells me there is no update, but I have 1.15...
Same issue, Canceled OTA update while it was downloading, and now it says there is no update.
I'm pretty sure that's not the case, I checked several times over the last few days and declined the installation every time. After seeing your thread I tried again and the update doesn't appear anymore.
I wouldn't have installed it in the first place so not too big of a loss but mysterious non the less.
apparently htc took if off for the moment as many people were having issues with it, i did get it last nite on my tmob uk and luckily everything seems alrite so far
Thx for your feedbacks
I just called T-mobile, they said i should try to make a factory reset, but actually I don't want to reset all my settings again
Anyone likes to try that?
No you shouldn't do that. Most definitely the update has been pulled by htc. I don't think a factory reset would help really.

Is this tmobile update the main android update with a few tmobile tweaks?

Thx to both of you.
Seems like we just have to wait
I am wondering if they just did this in UK or everywhere...
Same problem here in the netherlands with an unbranded htc desire.
I got an unbranded UK Desire, and can also confirm that i cant see the update...
if it's been pulled, what does it mean for those of us who grabbed the update?
i mean if they tweak it or something, will there be a seperate minor corrective update for us - or nothing?
i presume there would be something since otherwise we'll have different versions of the OS running
hTc Followup?
Has anyone heard anything more about this update from htc?
I downloaded the update on my Desire when it first pushed, and it works brilliantly for me. But my girlfriend who has a Desire also, have never recieved the OTA push notification, and can not see it when searching for updates.
Must have been withdrawn the same day as it was released...
BTW: I have NetCom Carrier (Norway), and my girlfriend has Telenor (Norway)

Orange Network locked unlock sim after OTA update

Hello,
Need some help.
Unbranded my desire today which went well. It asked me if I wanted to update the software OTA which I clicked yes to. This is where it all went wrong, phone now comes up with Network locked unlock sim.
Can anyone help me get round this, I read a thread a couple of days ago where someone had the same problem but I can't for the life of me find it. Any help would be very appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Hi there mate. I dont know the answer to your problem but can say that no one else has ever posted that exact error. Can you confirm the EXACT wording of the error and and numbers it may throw. If its already correct (including any punctuation) it seems you have a very unique problem.

It may not have been here but I think it was.
Basically it was a branded Orange Desire.
After much reading I decided that I wanted to get of all the Orange stuff that comes bundled and cannot be removed.
I followed a guide to de-brand the phone which worked perfectly. When I first turned the phone on and checked the software update it said 1 update was available, I chose to download and install the update. When I checked the phone version it was 2.1update 1 (I think).
Turned the phone off and on again and went back into the software update and was offered another update which I assumed was Froyo, chose to download and install that via wifi. Everything seemed to work but when the phone rebooted it came up with the following message "SIM network unlock PIN" there is no other error code and it wants an 8 digit code.
Called Orange and played dumb and they said that they would send me a new phone but I've told them to hold off for now.
Thank in advance.
Hmmm looks like you may have flashed a Branded ROM for another provider which I didn't thik had any effect on provider locks. But in the lack of help from anywhere else you could always try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=748105 which is what I did on my Virgin Mobile UK Branded and locked phone. SOrry I cant help further
You could buy an unlock code online..That should sort it.
It looks like your using an incompatible radio. Which version are you using? To find out go to settings - about phone then it should be baseband version?

Wanted to post back, thanks for the great advice. Hope this thread cones in useful for someone else.
Got a fully up to date Droid, didn't have to pay Orange for the Network unlock code either lol
really pleased mate well done! Its scary **** when you may have to pay out for the bugger lol
good advice in this thread
Got it up and running yet?
If not, take the SIM out and find the software version in settings. If it's something like:
x.xx.405.x
then you have an unbranded ROM which most people have had issues with with Orange phones. You could try updating to Froyo if the OTA update is still available as that should flash a working radio or just buy an unlock code for about a tenner that would be best in the long run.
Just to let you know that the latest radio is compatible with orange (I have it) its 5.09.00.20. Shouldn't sim lock your phone. Good luck. Hope you get it sorted.

This post says that he sorted it.
i am sure its an incorrect radio take your sim out and you should have access , i ended up rooting the device using revoke one click method very easy just follow carfully then i installed a custom rom and a new radio
this is the orange one for bootloader 0.75 "update-bravo-radio-32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11-signed" all working great the rom i used was "Official_FroYo_Market_fixed"
hope this helps actually just upgraded radio to 5.09 with no problem
Yeah got this sorted peeps.
Didn't mess around looking up radio's or anything like that.
This is what happened to me.
1. Debranded Orange Desire from 2.1update1 to Generic 2.1
2. Upgraded OTA from Generic 2.1 to 2.1update1
3. Was offered and accepted update to Froyo
4. Got error saying SIM locked unlock sim
5. Put Froyo ROM onto SD card and loaded it via recovery
6. Enjoyed having the last laugh over Orange technical support
Thank you to jamesmcuk who's post (I think it was 4 or 5) resolved my problem, would suggest the same process to anyone else who had the same problem that I had.
On another note, how do I check what radio version I have and if it's upto date?

i don't think anyone is worried about dupe threads here. i started one about the audio chip, then another one showed up and went on 3 pages after i asked why it was needed.

As far as I heard back from people already using 1.28, it seems to have some battery draining issues and other problems occurring, so I guess I'll skip this and will wait for ROMs to adapt the best out of this OTA update.
If more positive comments are posted here, however, I might still think about giving it a shot
What's the kernel version for 1.28? And can somebody verify if the nvcplsvc.apk in the correct place? Thanks.

Nothing here yet - I'm on 1.26 on Voda in the UK - are they rolling it out, or should it be available everywhere?
available in Belgium
Available on O2 in the UK
I've click installed and its been stuck on the black screen with the two green arrows and phone for around 10 minutes?
Does anyone whose flashed the update know how long it will take?
Thanks!
Exciting update but i already rooted my device and installed CWM. And now i have no idea what i should do because i want to try the new OTA update (no idea what OTA actually mean lol) but with the CWM i getting some ugly error messages after downloading the update and restarting the phone for applying it.
Should i wait for Revolution ROM build on 1.28 or look for How to get rid off CWM and lock the device again for OTA update?
And also please give me link or a guide what should i do if i want to RELOCK the device again, havent find anything in my briefly look on HTCdev web, there are just info how to unlock it.

Wait for ARHD update, mike already said it would be out today, so not long to wait.
To re-lock - fastboot oem lock
Update
Im on O2 and im still waiting lol
Kernel version
the kernel version is still 2.6, to be exact 2.6.39.4-g86aa4d. I don't think anything changed here... nVidia should work harder on getting 3.0 to work :\
If anyone cares: baseband is 1.1204.103.14.
I don't have any battery draining issues so far, it seems to me the banding actually got a little better, so they may have fixed at least some of the rendering related problems. GPU can still not be enabled, though.
P.S: I'm on an unbranded device. I might get Zen Pinball later, to see if that was fixed...

[Q] Multiview firmware update problem

Hi guys.
I have just received my new Galaxy Note II. Live in Denmark, and on the box it says "approved for nordic operators".
I don't have the multiview function. Holding the back arrow doesn't activate anything, and there is no menu option I haven't turned on, as far as I see.
I heard this was a problem with European models, but I also read that Samsung had issued an update to fix it.
According to the phone, I have the newest software version.
I tried to upgrade firmware via Kies. Updated Kies. Tried both on my PC and Mac. The only message I get is that my device does not support firmware update via Kies. Very annoying.
I made some search on the net, I even tried Kies mini, but without effect.
Does anyone have an idea about what I should try?
I post a screenshot of my system information.
Thanks a lot. Take care.
Agoston
Not exactly sure how to help you but I'm sure it's probably that the update isn't available in your region. I could be wrong but the only way I know of at this point in time to fix this is to root and manually download and apply the update.
The update has been available in Spain just today. They are releasing it in different countries at different times, maybe to avoid problems with their servers.
Just wait a couple of days more.

I was thinking about:
1. downloading the update from here:
http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-N7100
2. and following these directions:
http://www.todroid.com/update-samsu...elly-bean-firmware-xxalj1-multi-view-feature/
Do you think this can hurt/brick the phone or cause problems?
Thanks,
Agoston
I upgraded to one of the firmwares found on that link but never got the multi-window. Wasted time .

Hmm, does this mean it worked for you? Did you actually follow those links? Which update version did you choose? Which country do you live in?
I had the same problem, just flashed a uk rom.
I contacted Samsung. They told me that the update would arrive in about 2-3 weeks.

Has anybody here tried to update the Note 4 over Samsung Kies or SmartSwitch ?

Just wondering if I can update to OC6 over Samsung Kies. I'm not currently on the States and I already know that I'm not getting any updates over the air since there is no AT&T service here.
My phone came out of the box with Lollipop (COC4), and I have never tried to downgrade it, if anybody has a alternate way to update it to OC6, it would be really nice to know more about it !!

I literally just helped someone with this issue in another thread. It was kind of off-topic, so I'm not going to blame you for not seeing it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/not...-att-note-4s-ship-lollipop-oc5-t3189614/page4
Simply put, Kies will always show that the ATT Note 4 is up to date, when it isn't. I don't know EXACTLY why, but it has to do with ATT being the ones releasing the final version of the firmwares, rather than Samsung.
Anyway, you have to use Odin. Read my conversation starting from the link above. There, you'll find more info as well as a link to the Odin file for the latest firmware.
If you get stuck somewhere, PM me.

I had several days checking couple of threads but I was not getting as concrete answer as yours, I guess I would read everything untill the end, one more time I'm sorry for making you write this again but thanks alot !!
Hi guys are you still here? A friend of mine bought a 910a from US and he can not update it because of the known issues (not ATT sim card). I saw this thread and you made me very happy . But please can you describe the exact process you made so as not to destroy his phone ? :confused :fingers-crossed: I am aware of rooting etc but I prefer to destroy mine phones not my friends'. Also his is going to use it in greece
