T Mobile Rom update 1.15.110.11

I've just run a manual update check and it has found an update from t-Mobile to 1.15.110.11. Downloading now.

Update was quick and painless. No issues and no obvious changes.

Still behind the Generic one i updated to from the T-Mobile one, atm mine is 1.15.405.4

no, it's not behind the generic one.
110 is the code for t-mobile and 405 is the code for HTC branded EU devices. It is not a revision number.
1.15.110.11 is t-mobiles version of 1.15.405.4. they are the exactly the same ROM.

Bonus then

Downloading now, hoping this fixes the Charging issue for me!

Newbie questions...
1. When you say 'generic', does that just mean the standard HTC ROM?
2. I can't see it available for download yet from the HTC website?
3. When available - can you just install it over the top of the T-Mobile ROM - or do you have to 'hack' things somehow?

1. yes
2. might be availiable later, or might be not
3. you need to make a goldcard first then install a generic HTC Rom over the T-mobile one, this doesnt affect your warranty, unless you can flash back to t-mobile rom if you are willing to send it back for some reason

Ok, i've just installed it and i'm seeing the movement from one screen to another is little less smoother now.
Using Open Home, not looked at Sense as yet.
The fact that HTC and T-Mobile are able to tell us what the update actually / does apart from adding a number! is a little concern. Why issue an update if you don't know what it is for?
Will keep eye on Battery and smoothness of phone over w/e.

Just before the update I was looking at the battery usage stats and it said Android was 37% usage.
After upgrade it's now at 62% usage!
Anyone else confirm what is says on theirs?

Could someone who receives this update please take a copy of the file and upload it somewhere and post the url here
This file would be very handy in possibly creating a way of re-branding our t-mobile handsets

Cez, just to clarify for the guy, did you mean this does affect your warranty unless you can flash it back?

If you sent a T-Mobile Desire with the generic ROM back for repair it'd be returned as invalid warranty. If you can get it back to how it was out the box they should be none the wiser

When I check for mine it still says no update.

If you did not receive your phone first (the 27th) I believe you already have the update! Just letting you know
(I think)

Am installing now (actually just finishing) during the process the phone appeared to reboot twice, does that imply a radio upgrade?
By the way, love the update graphics for this, haven't seen any since i updated from 1.0 to 1.1 on the G1.

When ordering, I asked T-Mobile about ROMs - they said I could get updates from themselves or direct from HTC, and neither would invalidate the warranty. Not sure I believed 'em though. I've learnt to take what sales people say with a big 'pinch of salt'!

no, what t-mobile told you was not true, mainly because the guy you asked is likely not paid enough to give a **** about whether he's right or not....

As far as it goes this statement is not incorrect. If you use a legitimate ROM ,designed for your hardware and carrier and released by your carrier and/or hardware manufacturer you will not invalidate the warranty. If you used a ROM released by HTC for Virgin Mobile phones on a T-Mobile phone however this would be unacceptable (assuming they notice the difference)

[official] Problems with Telus OTA update.

So, just to keep telus update waiters in touch with whats going on with the OTA Froyo 2.2 update.
EDIT : The RUU is also avaiable ! You can continue to mess with your desire..and get back to the factory ROM if any problem:

I will put links to how to resolve different problems later...

If it's not out tomorrow, I think that's gonna be the push I need to make one of those fancy goldcards and install an RUU version of Froyo. What does the telus one have anyway, EDGE disabled?
EDIT: Thanks for collecting this info; more than I knew before.

The telus update won't offer much as I know. They will put some of their crappy apps that you can't delete...add some feature in apps (music dowloading or ringtones downloading... with some downloadable stuff) and thats it.
Any developers on XDA could do this job within 1 week... Htc desire was out on july or august on Telus... and they struggle to get it done in time.
Gold card is not a bad idea at all. Avoiding warranty kinda hurt me.

I got one of the very first Desires from Telus and had it running a custom ROM within three days.
I'm on 2.2.1 now. LOL!

no reason in loosing your mind over this
my phone is currently not working because of radio not compatible with froyo issue. And this RUU might possibly be the only i can fix my problem. No one on this forum was able to give me any help.
Every minute is too long of a wait. RUUs should be out the second a phone is out with the original rom and so on. Not when updates come up and the whole world had time to test those updates..and then..you know what..last minute we notice there's an issue. It's ok, it's not like people stuck in a 3 year contract with a nice paper weight as a phone can do anything about it either..

Root and flash a custom ROM is an easy option... anyone can do it... but like I said... many people don't want to loose their one year warranty...
I'll wait to see what's in the update package... if too many ****ty telus's apps ... I will probably jump in the boat. Unbrand the phone with a gold card and get OTA updates directly from HTC seems to be the cleanest solution for me.
Come on Telus...don't disappoint us ...
btw: More then 50% Desire's owner (Canad) are not with telus... we all bought the phone at full price. And get stucked with telus's apps ( and you can't remove them) will defininetly be disappointing.

That could be the reason to why Telus took out the outright price. I'm with Telus and I even bought it outright then gave it off and bought another outright a month later.
And yes Telus are one of the worst for OS updates, the Hero just got the 2.1 update today. And the Milestone has been taking forever.

Yeah my phone made a strange noise last night and i figured it was this update.
Telus is the worst with OS updates. It was a full year before the Black Berry os update came to the Storm. I tried to do some freaking out at the store to get a new phone style stuff when they told me the new update just came out. I told them it had been a year- why would I assume it would ever come out?
Ill wait to see what ****ty Telus apps they install (is that what is taking them so long?) before I decide what I want to do. I could unbrand or switch to a diff rom- but I think I like sense.

I can understand the "RAGE" about telus sucking at updates. But why are you guys so upset. they will release froyo, all the **** in it will be old as dirt. no one will use anything from it to build a custom rom. And if you want something good you will flash a custom one.
Its like telling the future, except im pretty much guaranteed to be right.
The only thing if at all im concerned about is the ril and the radio.
And maybe a telus voice call app cuz they have it on my account, but be ****ed if i know how to get it going right now.
As for telus and installing ****ty apps. they have been good about that lately, i expect to see little to no Telus apps on the rom. The 2.1 rom was devoid of anything telus but the home page.

Good is subjective my friend. If you find froyo old as dirt its ok... but four those who want to keep their warranty...we have no choice. The probability of loosing 600$ is enough to not make changes on our phone...that will result on loosing the warranty.
Your are not the first...and not the last person to tell us to root..unbrand and bla bla bla...

Loosing warranty is relative to the knowledge of the user.
There is a pretty easy way to put the device back to factory software if you take the correct steps.
Thats if you have to. If the device is a brick before you return it then no harm.
ive already unrooted a telus desire, restored the stock rom from a nandroid backup (unrooted the backup) then flashed the radio back to the stock telus radio. after this i used fastboot to flash a stock recovery back on and lastly flashed the .83.0001 Hboot with fastboot, removing the s-off hboot. effectively returning the whole device back to stock. with all the correct software version numbers.

It's good to know that it is possible to return to the stock config. I think a lot of us "waiters" would get off the bench if we knew it was possible to go back to stock if necessary.
Juggalo_X, would you consider writing a step by step process for returning a Desire to the stock config? Since you have already done it...

The thread is not about how to flash a stock ROM.
I will pay to see you restoring a stock rom when The screen is dead or when your phone wont start...

I got a Telus Desire, so here is my delema (and question)
1. Like HTC Sense and would like to keep it
2. Have a lot of reason to move to 2.2 (BT dialing)
3. want to root phone
I'm guessing there are stock HTC Desire rom floating around (from the factory unlocked desire) but are those rooted/rootable? I heard HTC has been making it harder and harder for us to root. And will rom for AMOLED work with sLCD phone?
===============================================
Oky did some more Google-ing and found this, might be useful to you guys

This is the rooted official Desire Rom
don't have time now but will have look through if this will work for our radio and sLCD issue.

I tried a similar (probably the same) rom, but from this thread:

I updated the radio to the latest, everything seems to be good and no bugs that I can see.

There would be no point in restoring a dead device.
I'm under the impression that you think htc checks the flash on every dead device? this is not so. its cheaper for them to replace the whole main board in a device rather then pay an engineer to remove the board put it on a bed of nails dump the rom via jtag routine and then analyze the binary images.
Also, If we're on the topic of paying me to restore a device with a blank screen send me one ill jtag it for fun and restore the device. How much you willing to pay? i need a Desire Z you know
On a side note, In the past 5 years ive probably sent at the VERY least 15 bricked devices back to HTC, WITH software that would void the warranty on them. and i have ALWAYS got my device returned fixed under warranty every single time.

Pretty difficult to believe that. 15 bricked...
Also just about anyone (cell carrier, manufaturer via phone, etc) will tell you rooting, unlocking and modifying (removing bloatware) will void warranty. I have heard of people sending in devices with those and succeeding but not very often.

15 bricked in 5 Sears. A reason to not listen to you. Not everyone has the time to mess with their phones that much...learn to jtag..etc..

[REQ] Return to stock unrooted

Hello all. Sorry if I missed this somewhere but do we have a return to stock method yet? It is not for me personally but I have been asked if there was a method. It seems that we should have one if we have root, for backup purposes and incase someone needs to return a phone to vzw, etc.

I have a back up I pulled of stock if its usefull it its my personal

At this point, you can downgrade fully if you have used AlphaRevX, with one exception: you retain S-OFF. You lose recovery, you go back to stock, but you still retain S-OFF.
I'm playing with it now, so hopefully I'll find any more issues soon.

Thanks guys. It's no big deal. Just wondered if there was something I could post over at droidforums for some people.
If one downgrades can't they just except the ota for stock gb? Won't that put s back on?

That I don't know... I tried checking for the update, but nothing ever happened. The problem though is that I know it hasn't been pushed/rolled out to everyone. So I don't know if they can get OTA.

Asked this in the irc earlier today and was told you can not go back to s-on. Hopefully this will be an option in the future. Wouldn't want any problems with verizon on a warranty or insurance claim.

Insurance I wouldn't think would be an issue.. If it's broke, it's broke. Warranty claim would be an issue, that's for sure.

Some people were talking about Ruus but I'll just tell them to stick with root for now.

Optus Australia 1.29 update.

Hello people of XDA!
I'm just wondering has anyone got any information on the release of the Optus 1.29 update? It's been nearly a month sinse its initial release and still a no show.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

They normally take 2-3 months to issue new firmware. You'll just have to wait it out. One of the things I miss from my iphone..

I'm waiting it on too. By the time It's out there will be a new and better update. Does 1.29 fix any WiFi issues.
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA

Please forgive my extreme Noobness, first Android phone so learning the ropes..
My HTX One X has the Taiwan CID as I bought it online. Phone is now rooted and am being offered OTA updates for Taiwan CID.
Is it possible to flash the Optus Aus CID onto the phone so that I can relock it to install the Optus OTA update when it becomes available, then unlock and reflash recovery mod and superSU?
Thanks

I don't think you can change CID w/out S-OFF.
IF you're unlocked who cares about OTA just install your latest version of custom ROM
BTW This is HTC specific not android general, samsung for example doesn't have this issue.
---------- Post added at 10:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:44 AM ----------
I am also waiting eagerly for this update. I have the SD card bug and I want it fixed with 1.29.xxx.11 base hboot, radio etc. before I unlock and start customising.
THis is my second OneX and I believe my first one developed major IO issues after using CWM with 1.26 base which I suspect is all related to the buggy filesystem drivers.

Thanks for the info.
I'm not really that interested in custom ROMs at this stage, still finding my feet with the stock ROM. But rooted in order to use root explorer and Titanium backup etc.
Sounds like I'll just hang out where I am and wait for maybe 1.3 to come out along with S-OFF as I haven't come across any issues so far, currently running 1.29.709.7.
The update was for 1.29.709.12.

regardless of taiwan or whatever region you should update. .11 onwards fixed a bunch of major bugs (flickering, sd card space disappearing)

OK thanks for the advice.
I reflashed the stock recovery back on, re-locked the bootloader then and applied the OTA update.
Now at .12.
Unlocked bootloader, reapplied recovery and added superSU.
One thing that seems a bit annoying is that when the bootloader is unlocked, the phone goes back to factory config. Is that avoidable at all?
Just means have to restore from backup. Using Hasoon2000's HTC All in one toolkit to do most of the work and Titanium for backup/restore

If you do that - you'll void your warranty and the One X has a lot of hardware issues that can come up - G-sensor failture, screen flickering, sd-card disappearing. Your taking a big risk with unlocking the bootloader.

Vodafone Australia in their software update blog have advised it's currently being internally tested and I'd expect it to be released next week. Maybe Optus is doing the same internal testing. There is the question as to when they start and how long to finish. See if Optus has a software update blog

luck of the draw, allphones accepted my return no worries but I did relock/RUU it. lol. Having said that I haven't unlocked my second, which, touch wood, seems perfectly fine aside from the SD card disappearing space bug which is a known software issue resolveable via OTA.
run it for a month or so, if no hardware issues and AFTER 1.29.x.11 OTA (THE ONE THAT FIXES THE SD CARD FILESYSTEM DRIVER BUG!!!) then go for it, my 2c.
Also wouldn't hurt to wait for recovery to come out that has USB mounting , so if anything goes wrong with your storage you can push a ROM to storage to flash instead of being dead in the water and having to relock/RUU. Why HTC u no removeable storage lol... feel sorry for the guys who bricked due to low power back in the early days when you couldn't charge in recovery (?!?!?! why htc tie charging to recovery rofl).
To be brutally honest had I known how much fiddliness was involved in flashing ROMs (no full SOFF etc.) I would have probably waited and gone the SGS3. As it is I love my OneX but really, REALLY missing custom roms (nailed on android rom flashing addict here)

anyone still awake? LOL

I would have already gone custom except for my previous experience with this model (i.e. somehow in flashing I managed to create serious IO lag that not even an RUU would fix) + definite storage/filesystem driver bug on my current unit has turned me off the idea for now. Having said that, I really just want the disappearing space bug sorted, better battery wouldn't hurt, then the only thing that I really want custom ROM for is root and three dot menu mod. I put root and custom in same basket as both involve unlocking bootloader hence invalidating warranty

Is using the box safe?

Hi, my HTC one M8 eye isn't working for about one week now because I installed a wrong ROM on it. I tried many methods to get it back working but all have failed. I messaged HTC service center in my country and they said they can't support it even if I pay, since it was damaged in a non technical way. So I sent it to a guy in a Mobile repair shop and after two days he said, something is preventing any flash ROM from being installed and that he has to use the box method to remove the cid and make the phone accept any custom ROM. Now, I don't understand what was he talking about and I fear this would lead to more damage. What shall I do?
Thank you in advance .

The tech guy is referring to the dedicated boxes used to unlock ,flash or repair mobile phones.it should be safe as long as the guy knows what he is doing.But I doubt there's a box that could change CID without the phone being s-off.
Flashing a wrong rom should only result to a soft brick.As long as you can boot to fastboot you practically can fix it with official methods like relocking the bootloader and restore with RUU.
or flash twrp and install a custom rom.

Yer im pretty sure they cant change CID without S-Off, i was looking at buying the Xtc2 clip. very similar, but doesnt change cid, and as already said, soft brick=easy to fix, i fear he may be trying the old garage mechanic routine, go in with a flat tyre, come out with a new engine lol.
