[Q] Desire HD BIG problems since update

Anyone help me with some ideas on this?
Last week I received the OTA update to 2.3.3 via Virgin and have had nothing but problems since. Firstly I started experiencing problems with WiFi dropping out more often than it did on 2.2. After it drops out if I go to settings and refresh the network list I can see my AP and reconnect immediately, but shortly after it will drop out again. Then the mobile internet stopped working intermittently. When I try to view a page I get a "forbidden" message, but on WiFi I have no problem accessing pages. Then last night (a week after the update) the biggest problem developed. I am unable to send text messages. I can select a recipient, enter the message text but pressing the send button does nothing. I don't even get a failure message, it just stays on the same screen and no matter how many times I press send nothing happens. If I then leave the message app it saves the message as a draft as it was never sent. Receiving messages works ok, but I cannot reply. What do I need to do to go back to 2.2? I'm at my wits end with it and the battery life has also suffered dramatically since the update. Thanks - Matt.

Hi,
I'd frist try to reset the settings to factory defaults. If that doesn't seem to work for you, I'd say it's a matter of warranty - so go to the store and have the phone changed.
Alternatively, you could try to root the phone (VOIDS WARRANTY!) and install a custom kernel (supplied with the plethora of custom ROMS on this forum) - together with the ROM and see how that goes.
Know anyone else with the same phone, same update, same carrier?

Definetily go ROOT....trust me ...once you root ,....you nver go back
yes
rooting may void guaranty.... but you can revert it to original state....i did it when i had to send it to service
I recommend with all y hear ANDROID REVOLUTION by mike1986, IMHO the best CUSTOM rom AND FAR MUCH BETTER THAN ORIGINAL GINFERBREAD ;D

I think he can't. If he has installed the update last week, it is possible, that he has at least build number 2.37 or newer.

Sorry, didn't notice these replies never got a notification email.
Version I'm on now is 2.3.3. Text sending issue now seems to have gone away (for now). Thought about rooting before but not very knowledgable and it's a bit daunting!

Not necessary - I've also updated to 2.3.3 (FOTA direct from HTC - unbranded phone) & I have build 2.36

Basically - even though you have Android 2.3.3 - there are different 'build numbers'
Currently, those with build 2.36 should be able to downgrade > root > upgrade.
Those with build 2.37 currently cannot downgrade
If you're not sure what build number you are - press:-
menu > settings > About Phone > Software information​

Build number is 2.36.351.16 so that means I'm good to go?

Yes, you can root this version of 2.3.3 (if you want to use custom roms).

Can't connect to sprint even after unrooting

Last night I loaded the rom hyper drive and it was working fine but after a reboot it would just bootloopso I refreshed with a different kernel(the stock one from aroma) from them on the phone will load but with no network connection. I tried every rom I could get my hands on (about 6) from AOSP to samsung base and everyone has no connection. My last resort was to restore using the unroot method which worked fine but I still have no network connection... What can I do?

Can you try to update the profile and prl?
Maybe also try to flash the modem.

how do you update the profile and prl?

once a TW ROM has booted. Click Settings -> System Update -> Update Profile and Update PRL are in that menu.
I hope that works for you.

If that doesn't work, there's a dialer code somewhere that will force a reactivation, just make sure you're on a wifi network

That ^

There are known issues with the Sprint version of Hyperdrive right now...the developer is working on a fix for this ....so I would just flash something else until a fix is released ....because reactivating the phone doesn't work...but they said dirty flashing it gets your DATA back but I don't recommend that.....this often happens with Roms that are released for Multi Carriers.

[Q] software update interrupted - still

Interesting problem - phone continues to say "Software Update Interrupted". Even after manually updating to Android 4.1.2
AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 2
Samsung-sgh-I317
I encounter no problems with my phone, but this phone puzzles me.
Friend tried to update phone - said gave me an error. Phone is not rooted, stock ROM. There was an attempt to unlock the SIM using keypad *#..... I do not know if there were any problems.
I tried
1. Setting date ahead 2 days, 2 months ....
Result: A check for software update returned "Software Update Interrupted"
2. Tried to reflash ROM using Odin to stock
Result: Failed, tried several times - lost connection - tried different USB cable failed
3. Reset phone to factory defalts "
Result: A check for software update returned " Software Update Interrupted"
Update successful by
Manual update: downloaded update.zip to microSD card. Installed update Reboot into recovery (turn phone off, press volume up, center button and power) Install update from external sdcard
Result: Phone is now running 4.1.2 with Mult Window !!!
BUT
A check for Software update results in "Software Update Interrupted"
Should say "Current software is up to date"
Is there some switch that needs to reset?
Is ATT blocking the phone by IMEI?
What is checked when software update is run?
Phone works fine - person does not want to have ATT replace phone with a refurb under the warranty.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Im having this same exact issue.. Had my note 2 for about a month now..When i first got it had no problem with getting OTA update to 4.1.2 but had flash back to stock firmware 4.1.1 via sammymobile because that is latest version they have listed and now me too had to do manual update rom zip via sd card.. Keep getting the software update interrupted.. I just wonder if there update "servers" are having issues? As i say two weeks ago had no issues..

screw it..flash a "custom" stock rom....cleanrom will work fine for you

Or just turn off the updates via tibu or app manager.
You need to turn off:
Att update and FWupdate .
But yeah otas
flash a custom rom and youll forget all about ota.

Want OTA to work again
Custom ROMs are not really a good option. This person still remembers the update to their MPX220, and the Chinese Character set. Simple fix to change the language, but huge impact.
I would really like to get the OTA updates working again, so I can say update your own phone.

The OTA update servers are working fine. Works on other notes on same network.
I would really like to know what the OTA update servers are checking for and why they are blocking the update.
Thanks.
I love my "note 2"

yeah, that comment will go over like a fart in church around here. You're comparing some c r a p from ten friggen years ago. You might want to do a little more reading

Have you done a factory reset of the device since the update?
use the stock recovery and reset it. .
The firmware update to UCAMA4 may have corrupted your data.
And does the device show "normal" status. .??
If yes. ..the data wipe should help. ...and wipe cache also. ..g

Can you please give me the link to that download because I tried doing what you said as in going into recovery and flashing a zip update I got from sammobile.com and it didn't work. My Note 2 is stuck on 4.1.1 and gives me that Software Update Interrupted stuff.

I'm not sure what kind of update from Sam mobile is flashed through recovery.
Down load via odin is another matter.
There are update options available for mh3 in the dev section

Sorry do not have the link anymore, it was to an old ROM March/April 2013. I found it on a forum on how to manually push the update via google.
The next update, the girl took it back to AT&T for a replacement.
New phone updates fine.
The FIX - replace the phone sad, since it probably was a software setting.

Need flashable zip of latest Virgin Mobile PRL

[SOLVED]
I suddenly began having signal issues after virgin Mobile began "upgrading" the latest few weeks (towers/system). Well, the customer service rep told me to "update my profile" in settings, but I'm running CM10.1 and I can not find any option for this. So, after doing what research I could on here, I think I have found that I need to get the latest VM PRL in a flashable zip.
If there isn't one, do I have to go back to a sense based rom in order to do this? Then, when I wipe that and put CM10.1 on it, will it remain updated (as in, is this a firmware update that won't wipe with the system?)?

What is your PRL?

61008

If I need to revert to stock in order to update my profile, since I goofed when I first began flashing roms and forgot to back mine up (on the newest radio)...would grabbing a backup from a friend's phone (exact same one on same network) and putting it on my sd card and flashing it as if I didn't forget...would this work? I mean, it isn't specific to her phone number/ESN etc, right? Or is it?

I flashed your rooted stock rom and then tried to do a system update and nothing. So, I called into customer care and turns out there is a power outage in my area and I'm to call them back after 5pm. :/
Anyhow, this should allow me to update my PRL later, right?

Looks like you already have the updated PRL

So, you haven't been having any signal problems?
Also, I went back to stock with the rooted one you made and the "My account" app from VM keeps telling me that there is an updated PRL available for download, but I it won't download.

My signals been great it must be your location because I don't have that option to update

I spoke to customer care again yesterday evening and he assured me that there wasn't any updates pending and it was simply a down tower. :/

Stock rooted touchwiz 4.3, constant "call failed"

Noticed a very weird bug with all the various stock rooted touchwiz 4.3 with mj4 and mjc radios. No fancy tweaks. Let see if anyone else got this.
Sometime, when initiating calls, it go instantly to the orange call ended/failed screen.
Often time takes a reboot or airplane mode to fix. When it happens, it takes a very long time to enter airplane mode (3-5 min).

Me too! I'm having the same issue...

Try the MD5 Modem ?

It only works on cm and aosp 4.3 roms...

My wife's s3 is getting this ad well. Running the leak rom with uvjmc modem. Oddly enough, I have gotten it a couple times today on my GN2 with the current 4.3 modem as well. Sporadic. When I go the wifi calling, no problem. Very strange.
