OTA update Question

Hi there
I just recently signed a contract with orange for the Desire.
Last Night I got rid of there crappy firmware and installed the stock Bravo firmware.
My question is, if an over the air update is released for froyo 2.2 what will happen? Will my phone download the Orange firmware 2.2, Bravo 2.2?
Or will it not work now and i will have to manually update using a downloaded firmware.
Thanks
Dion.

is it really an issue for you ??

Well yeah of course it is. I dont want to download the update over the air if its going to be Orange firmware. But if it uses HTC Generic Firmware then I will download over the air.
What happened to the help in this forum?

if you flashed a generic non branded rom ill guess you get a generic non branded froyo

ignore the noobs here they just have to learn

I am also interested in this aspect. If anyone has more experience with previous phones and OTA please share your experience.

Cheers

nop, didn't flash custom ROMs, my point of rooting and S-off is becuz i wana overclock.. other than that.. my phone is stock... my worry is when htc comes out with GingerBread for DesireZ.. the upgrade would forbid our phone to be rooted forever.. can't image the phone running @ 800MHz...

I can't find even on the chinese forum.
however I think it's not necessary cuz so many good ROMs out there.
I did tried flash the older HK ROM, feel list almost the same with the one come with the phone
if you know people who have bought new DZ in HK and havn't change anything yet, we can ask for a dump I guess.

I don't think it's that simple though. At least, not according to the responses I got when I asked this question recently. Official RUUs and ROMs are digitally signed, for example, and we're not going to be able to do that bit.

[Q] Mode ID incorrect, update Fail!

Hi,
My phone is routed to IceColdSandwitch with Android 4.0.4, but I do not like it and I want to go back to Android 2.3.
I am using ACE PVT END S-OFF for the flashing process. I downloaded 2 ROMs
but both of them do not work:
RUU_Bravo_TMO_UK_1.21.110.4_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.0 6.00.02_2_release_127570_signed.exe
(Thought this should be for the HTC Desire HD on T-mobile UK but did not work)
and I also downloaded from the official HTC Desire HD page the ROM-Upgrade HTC Media Link ROM Update for HTC Desire HD (1.11.0.0)
Here I got the following error message: MOdel ID incorrect, Update Fail!
Anyone an idea what is going wrong? Could anyone point me out which is the right ROM to use for this phone?
Many thanks!

Whatever is easier, I am sure this is the unrooted version, so I would be happy
with this one. I am on T-Mobile in the UK if this makes any difference.
Thanks!

I was looking on htcdev[DOT]com, as apparantely there should be the
official Android 2.3 gingerbread ROM for the HTC Desires to download, but
I can't located it there anymore.
Anyone an idea where they have shifted this stuff in the meantime?

Buddy, the BRAVO is the HTC Desire not the Desire HD...that is why the update is failing....you have to find a RUU for your phone...the code version for your device is ACE as is for the Inspire 4G. If you are S-OFF, then find a custom rom u like, flash it and once your phone is working, then look for a RUU suitable for your phone...

aosp-ace-signed is the only thing I found, seems to be a beta version, and quite rubbish as WIFI is not working. I just want to have an official Android 2.3 OS for this phone, is that nowhere available? I just do not get it ....

JB on New Zealand HTC One X

Hi,
I bought an HTC One X from Telecom NZ earlier this week.
I checked my phones CID, and it is TELNZ001. Is this CID compatible with JB ROM's?

Nope. Sorry
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

You will have to wait for Telecom to release their branded version. They have most likely received the base from HTC and will release it when it's ready. You could of course root the phone, so once HTC release the software for unbranded versions sometime later this month, the chefs on here should have a compatible build up within hours! That's what I'm waiting for, even though my phone is unbranded, the CID is HTC_044 which is currently not compatible with the test release!

Considering there is a LIST OF CIDs in the OP of every Sense JB ROM it's not hard to work out for yourself that a branded handset isn't compatible. Seriously, why can't people just READ rather than go straight for the download links...

But I don't get why the sales guy that sold me the phone (who also bought his HTC One X from the store I got mine from) was able to root his One X, and run the CM10 daily ROM's.
Is it possible that he has an older version One X with a different CID?

No, he unlocked his bootloader, rooted his phone and flashed CM10. It's not too hard, there's good guides on the internet (Google it) and if you need any further help you can PM me if you want.
Just FYI: CM10 is NOT a Sense based JB ROM or even close. It is however a Jellybean (4.1.2) based ROM

Sorry, probably poor use of terminology on my behalf...that's what I want to do, unlock, root, and flash a custom ROM.
What is the relevance of the CID then to flashing a custom ROM?

The CID part only comes in if you want to flash a JB Sense custom ROM. This is because you need to update your HBOOT with a signed (official HTC) zip that checks for your CID, and if it is not on the list it will simply not flash. The HBOOT update is needed for compatability with the new kernel I believe

It doesn't matter what cid you have to use a custom/cm10 Rom, the reason you need a matching cid for the jb/sense roms is you need to update your hboot to run them and the hboot needs a matching cid to flash

So I can't flash ARHD (as it's Sense based) and my CID is not listed, but I can flash CM10 or any of the AOSP/AOKP based ROM's?

You technically can flash ARHD, but no versions higher than 9.7.2 no (9.7.2 is the latest ICS based ARHD)

You can flash ARHD or any other rom which is not a Jellybean based sense rom. The CID is only relevant to change the hboot in order to successfully flash a JB sense rom.

Thanks all for clarifying things for me.

Can anyone let me know when the One X on Telecom NZ upgrades to Jelly Bean?
I really don't want to reinstall to stock rom just to check whether it's upgraded then to find out it's not and have to revert back to present rom.
Or tell me a way to check, emailing Telecom seems to be of no use.
Thanks

I got a private message from member kskendsup saying that Telecom NZ has released the Jelly Bean update for the One X.
Can anyone else confirm this is true?

I have confirmed with HTC and with telecom also that 4.1.1 is indeed out..but there is some prob from their side and they are not accepting it...I am thrashing them as i write this reply...bcoz i called up HTC NZ and they took my IMEI and told me that i was scheduled for an update sometime at the starting of dec...so our CIDs are indeed JB but something wrong with telecom i guess...I have received mail from them and I will include that in my next post here..!!
---------- Post added at 12:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:39 PM ----------
Here is the mail reply which i received from TELECOM guys and just now i had a conversation with them and they told me that if the update is not gettin pushed then i might need to give my phone for them to check out the matter..i dont have a spare phone At the moment to give my phone but v must talk to them to solve this matter...!!
Anyways here is the mail they sent me which confirms the release
Thank you for contacting Telecom.
We have released the Jelly Bean (4.1.1) Update Last week.
New software is now available for the HTC One X. The update will add Android 4.1.1.
It will provide some feature enhancements, stability to the memory, fixes to CPU hung issue, screen blinking, can't charge, power on/off, etc.
The update will be available through HTC's FOTA (Firmware Over the Air) server. As the files are generally quite large, we suggest to connect via Wi-Fi to a Broadband connection.

Please look at these screenshots too and tell me whether all these are fully updated compared to other DINC2 users who has officially updated der phone

I believe the reason is that the software updates are locked down to Verizon and Vodafone network. I tried with Mobile Data off and WiFi on and it denied me. Nevertheless, your guess could be as goof as mine because I am no longer on stock.
