There's an entire thread in the general section for discussion about this update. I would start there
Thanks, found it, seems it keeps getting buried by other threads and I couldnt see it earlier.

My phone still on 1.32.651.1, but when I search for update, it said no update.
Where did you search? via the Android settings program or the HTC thing?

Is your phone rooted? When my phone was rooted it did not find the update, although maybe the timing was coincidental. I went back to stock and then was able to find the update.

I recently started getting system update notices for 3.26.605.1 on my D-Inc.
I'm running the "standard" clockworkmod recovery that flashed when I rooted the phone. As I understand it, I can not install the update because I'm rooted so is there a way that I can stop the notices (without unrooting and going stock)?
I've also read chatter on other forums about a fix or "root version" on the way from unrevoked, but I haven't been able to find anything official.
Can anyone confirm an update from unrevoked?
Thanks.
Hey Dude,
I figured I would get to you before the wolves do lol you'll probably get a better response to your questions in the "General" section. To answer you directly there is already rooted versions of this OTA such as (shameless plug) both my Roms Redemptive rEVOlution (Evo hybrid) and Redemption Rom.
OK. Thanks.

I've been hitting Cancel on that update message for the last 2 weeks. Today I read about it a bit, and finally just gave in and ran the update. I don't know if it actually updated, but the message is gone, it says my system is up to date, and I still have S-OFF/root. FWIW.

I saw that, thanks. I wanted the update, I just couldn't find any solid answers on whether it disabled root or not. It sounded like it disabled root but left S-OFF alone, so I did ran the update, thinking I could root it again later. But now I still have root, so I don't know if the update was actually applied or not.
I'm not worried either way, it was just an experience relevant to the OP's question.

Go into Settings/About Phone and see what firmware version you have, if it's 26 your updated, if it's still 21, it didn't update.
If you don't know if it's updated, it's prolly not. You would've known as it would've rebooted and then had run the update. If you don't recall any of that, your not updated.
Like was posted previously, you'd be better off finding which ROM has the update and then just flash that, be sure to do a backup 1st and foremost in case you screw up, you can always flash back to what you had and start over.
The only way that update will take is if you have stock with just root and no changes, I did this initially though and you will loose root, which is why I recommend you backup before trying, this way you don't have to root over again.
Edit build.prop. Here is the configuration you'll need to change to stop the OTA updates. This will also help save your battery if it frequently tries to download on 3G.

If you want to stay put on the version you have now, not accept the update, not be bothered by it again, then following bsdbytes's info for editing the build.prop is what you need to do.
If you want to accept and the NOV OTA update and still have clockworkmod recovery and root after... see -> http://solo.dc3.com/dinc/ (If you have an SLCD incredible, be carefull of which CWM Recovery version you use).

The current Unrevoked3 (ver 3.21) does not work to root the Nov OTA, nor install a custom recovery. There were tweets about an update coming, but delays due to thanksgiving, finals, etc. I haven't seen an ETA posted yet.

thanks for the info. you're right, it didn't update, i'm still at 21. when i clicked update a window came up saying it was going to reboot, but it never did. must be due to change i had on the device.

thanks for that link - i'll try to go through that when i get a chance.
So my phone just notified me there was a system software update available but that,s all the info I got. Pretty sure its from Telus but....
Here's the question: Now I assume it would be bad for me to dl and install this update on my rooted HTC Desire but what is it? How can I find out, by calling my provider I assume? And should I unroot, install update and re-root?
I have searched the threads with no luck and I figure it's because it was just released in BC perhaps....
I know that most of these are terrible noob questions but better to ask than to figure out what to do with my expensive new paperweight....
Thanks in advance!
whoaa im on telus in BC too! lol
ok anyways I didn't get a call though so i don't think that was a genuine call
maybe check for system software updates in settings?
No updates were available for me. Have you already done the 2.2 OTA update from telus?
Update
I did the 2.2 update in October and this was a notification through my phone and I declined it and checked via the settings/about phone/software update and it showed up again.
I'm going to call Telus this afternoon and ask.
What software version does it say it is?
And no, don't try to flash it on the rooted ROM
I figured best not to from what I've read before. It doesn't say what it is.
it was sent and that's all that matters!
hmmm, OTAs normally say what version number they're updating to
Okay now it gets weirder...
I just went to recheck and make sure there was no other info and now it says my system is up to date?
WTF!? Perhaps I need a reinstall of my rom and and a nice reboot!
it was sent and that's all that matters!
So I found out that I have Jelly Bean sitting in my queue for a OTA update. Went to install it but I cannot because I am rooted. I have scoured the internet to find out the best method of getting this update on my phone but have been successful in truly finding a solution. I am new to the android platform and just got my SGS3 a few weeks ago.
Not sure if I should unroot my phone first (looks like I just flash ICS back on to my phone to remove root?) or if there is a version of the official OTA release floating around that I could use to flash over without need of unrooting.
I have spent 2 days searching the internet, reading these forums, and watching youtue videos but I still do not have a clear understanding for what I am asking which is why I have posted.
I understand new software sometimes has a waiting period before you are able to update it with hacked system.. is that what we are in right now? Waiting for the proper resources to be updated to allow this update?
Thanks!
you can go into your superuser app and unroot but im pretty sure it is not a jb ota
More than likely, it's just the LH9 firmware update. Still ICS,and not JB. IF you want the update, there is a thread that has it as flashable zips.

oh ok, i see the leak but I was hoping to use an official release so it was "100%" functional. I guess I will wait. Thanks for the helpful response!
I'm in Cincinnati Ohio, and I have a *completely stock and non-rooted* Note 2. I have been trying to get this OTA update since it came out, but no dice so far.
It basically just says that no update is available - the same message everyone else reported. Am I just in an area where it has not been rolled out for *anybody*? Or is there something going on?
I know on my Nexus 7 I had to clear the data on a google service to get it to notice when the Kit Kat update showed up - anything like that for the Note 2?
Thanks.
P.S.
I have searched both XDA and with google, and completely read through the main large thread in this forum relating to the update.
I don't want to load the update in any other way that will wipe my phone. I understand that many of you don't feel like waiting for an OTA, and download these updates and load them manually. I do not want to do that. So, this post is only seeking information as to how I can get the OTA update through the update mechanism in the phone.

Have you tried updating through KIES?

No, I don't even have it installed. If I decide to install KIES, does it do the update without wiping the phone - just like the OTA?
I just don't like installing vendor crapware on my computers unless it is absolutely necessary. Which is why I don't own electronics with a "i" prefix.
Ok, I installed KIES and attached is an error message it gives relating to a firmware update

Crap, nevermind. I got this phone via trade and it turns out that the guy I got it from had rooted it at some time in the past... So no OTA for me. I'll accomplish it the way all the other folks have.
Thanks
