I just clicked on software update/check for update in the 'About Phone' section of my settings. I've never clicked it before. It said new firmware required. So I let it download the new software. Then it said charge battery before updating, and then it let me choose when to resume the update. I chose 3 hours. So I'm on stock Android 2.3.3. Gingerbread XWKE7 . What will it update to? I'm a bit worried now, is it going to wipe stuff? Everything's working good so I don't 'need' to update, but it would be nice to. Can I cancel the update? Only thing I can see is 'resume update'.
If you are from london uk. I think the OTA(over the air) version is gingerbread 2.3.4. I do not think it is a wipe device firmware but just to be safe, back it up via kies if your phone is not rooted otherwise use titanium backup if your phone is rooted.
Trust me I would go with the update. Some improvements. I wish we could update
For sure it is NO WIPE version.
Thanks guys, it's a relief it didn't wipe anything.
This is what I got. I thought it might also update Android but it hasn't. What benefits can I expect from the updated Gingerbread XWKF3?

Oh look, it's the voluntary forum policeman.
I made a duplicate thread because I wasn't sure which forum to post it in and I panicked a bit last night so needed a fast answer. OK?

First Off, im not sure if this should be in Q&A or android development. But, here i go..
I have seen alot lately about the leaked ota update, and all these fancy 2.2 leaks, which apparently requires a radio flash of some kind. Now before i do this, i have some questions..
If i do this, will i be able to use old nandroid backups of 2.1? and if i am rooted, how do i go about flashing the leaked ota? Im asking because im hearing alot of posts of people bricking phones.
Also, if i ignore this update, and theoretically a 2.2 update is released tommorow, will i be able to just update rooted? im sure i would lose root but could i do it? or do i really need to use PB31IMG and restore my phone?
Thanks for the reply.
Gentle warning, due to admitted OP confusion. Good rule: if you really have to start a thread, when in doubt choose General or Q&A (if one is available). Thanks

it should be in Q&A.
Unfortunately, Incredible has no Q&A section yet so General is used for that. For now.
Ok, ill keep that in mind. I take it the thread has been moved. but anyway, anyone have any input on the whole radio update dillema?
If a new OTA is released and the radio is slightly different you'd need to RUU. I am not sure how the OTA prompt would go and what would happen if you tried to apply the ota BUT I know you can always RUU down and flash the newest OTA after SU busybox etc is added with no problems.
So basically, theres no way im upgrading the radio unless i RUU and apply the ota. Alright. Guess Ill wait for an official OTA. but will a 2.2 rom break unrEVOked 3.1?

No one knows because the official update is not out. No one knows if the radio will be different than the leaked one, or if the hole used to root is plugged. The people who do know (HTC/Verizon), don't appear to be on this forum.
I need to take my dev for service as I'm having hardware issues, worst case I get it replaced and when I receive the replacement and it comes with the latest update pre-installed, Can i use unrevoked 3.2.1 to Root my phone or do I have to follow the long commands in Adb Shell provided in the guide (how to root 2.2 froyo) in this forums?

I believe unrevoked can root any veraion, but not 100% sure. Did you take a look at theot wiki page withthe info?
I do not know the answer as well. Move this thread to the question and answer section for the evo and you may get an answer.

Greetings,
I also have a supersonic. I spent quite some time reading all the related threads, and
the info provided on Unrevoked's wiki(s). There have been several posts indicating that
It does work on the latest OTA (YMMV). I haven't (yet) fetched the latest OTA, but I did
root mine with Unrevoked 3.21, and I was using the most recent version
just prior to the latest OTA. I am happy to report, it couldn't have possibly been
easier, and everything still works as well, as it did prior. In fact, I'd say it works better,
as I now have some better boot/recovery options not previously available.
I might also note, there were several posts confirming that applying the latest
OTA after rooting with Unrevoked 3.21 were all successful.

Hey guys I posted this in Galaxy Nexus App's subsection but I realize it was in the wrong place, so I re posted it here which I hope is the "proper" section.
I'm really sorry about this guys I know how much you hate people asking stupid questions but I really cant find the answer to this.
Hey everyone, hope someone can help me out, I've spent hours researching but this is one of those problems where I can't seem to find anyone with the same problem; basically I installed wallet using the old ZIP method, after removing it I found out I had to change files to be able to install the new APK method so I followed those instructions on this thread however I am not getting a weird error saying
"Hardware Not Supported"
"Sorry, this device is not yet supported. We are working too add support. Please check Market later for Updates."
Is anyone else having this problem or am I the only one?
EDIT: Just realized I posted this in the wrong place. Can Mod's move or delete this and I'll create another one in Q&A?
Should I just used the Zip method again, the main reason I wanted to switch is that I'm not sure if that method received updates.

Are you rooted? A new update to Google Wallet made rooted devices display some sort of incompatible message (don't ask me though since I haven't tried Google Wallet myself, I've just heard and seen threads about it).
Device incompatibility banner at the top?
You're fine.
This shows up on all rooted phones.
Also, I'd uninstall...and install it by scanning this!

Search and read before opening ANOTHER thread about this!! There are 4 new threads a week asking the same questions about Google Wallet that have been answered a long time ago! This is getting ridiculous.
I have been reading a lot about the 4.4 being released to our phones and was curious if has hit anyone phone yet......
I've been running 4.4 for months...

No one has anything in terms of real code. All we have are RDF entries from Sprint's website ...where the latest internal test build is OSVersion 4.4.2 SoftwareNumber is L900VPUCND2
http://device.sprintpcs.com/Samsung/SPH-L900-SPRINT/latest
*Only viewable properly in Internet Explorer
And that RDF is more than a few weeks old...meaning it might end up being official OTA by the end of the month....or it might mean Sprint ran into roadblocks...or it might mean that OTA official L900 dev is dead...or it might merely mean that tomorrow is Monday and not to read too much into it. L900 and Note2s in general have not had build leaks for over a year, sadly.

Thanks for the info...... :good:
Here is something else I found that may add some more information

Hey folks... I'm going to close this thread out as we already have multiple threads discussing this.
For example this is the official RDF discussion which is a good spot right now for 4.4 TW talk:

I have a mi a2 lite with android 10 (I'm one of the lucky ones that the first android 10 update didn't break the phone) and near the end of March I received a wrong update (that was an android 10 second update for who was with android 9) and I got an error. Now I know there's a new update for android 10 users, but I can't get it because of the second update (the wrong one). How can I resolve it? Should I clear the cache of some apps? I already reboot, cleared google play services' cache but still get that wrong update.

Just read the threads. If you got the Android 10 and you're stuck with the update screen for P, you need to manually update from recovery to .04 version and then update to .05 version from the update menu, or install .05 manually from the recovery. Both .04 and .05 are linked in the specific threads and help to install them is in a separate thread with full support.
Search before you post!!!
