Count me in too.
I just got it but do not want to install it until i know what it is as is am jellybean rooted with TWRP installed.
Can anyone confirm what the update is as there is no description to the update.

Couldn't be 4.2.2 I don't think.. Maybe though. Or could be an update to try and disable root too.. Can't find any info on the net. I'll try harder later though

Hmm.. No changelog on HTC site, nothing on the Internet about it, I just can't figure it out. Almost want to go and flash stock recovery to figure it out but this is my daily driver and I love having root.. Hmm.

Well--I'm rooted & running JmzTotemJBSense 4.1.2. I got the OTA yesterday evening went ahead & OK'd it this noon...Not sure what it updated, but I saw TWRP come up & I rebooted from there..
software info is:
Software number: 2.21502.1 710RD
HTC SDK API level: 4.65
Android version: 4.12
Kernel version: 3.4.10-g504ed01
Baseband version: 1.18.400.00.07_10.68.40.33IL
Build number: 2.21.502.1 CL206584 release-keys
I check for updates now & it looks like the phone was updated---go figure......
Anyone that has got the OTA & not done it---post your info so we can see if it was just a ATT BS update or something "better".....

Since you have twrp, it didn't update anything. You have to have stock recovery to install OTA updates

I can't post a link but if you go to AT&T's website they address the update:

So all they did was enhance the web browser
Is att dumb or what.
How is it they can allocate resources to make a Rom just for the web browser.
When users need real OS Rom updates they are no where to be found

Flash

Hi all,
I have the flash that came with the Froyo update on my phone.
But when I open the market I also see the flash for download.
Is there a difference in the too?
When there is an update for flash how do I get it? since the current flash is not being recognized in the market.
BTW the one in the market is newer.
Thanks

You need to download the flash from the market as this is indeed the update. Once you have done it the market will recognise you have flash and then you will be notified of further updates. It's the same story with the Facebook app.
Thanks

[Q] Installing OTA when root

Is it okay to install official OTA if S-OFF with Alpharev HBoot?
NEVER INSTALL OTA UPDATES ON ROOTED PHONES.

very true

Answered at least a million times.
It doesn't work no matter what you try. My Desire's now back to factory default because I sent it off to be factory reflashed after rooting it and finding no way to install the latest OTA update.
All the threads with people having issues after doing it says something different. Also a Ruu should have worked fine to get latest official rom. Which is the way to go if you don't want a custom rom but do want the latest OTA update.

OTA Rootkeeper

I rooted my HOX yesterday and am wondering if it would be safe to use the OTA update to 2.2 as long as I use the protections like OTA Rootkeeper and Supersu etc? I hear people say root and the new update don't mix at all, so I would like the info on whether or not I have to put up with the ATT message every day or upgrade to the awesome 2.2

You cannot update OTA if you are rooted as you would have installed Clockwork Recovery. OTA requires stock recovery to work.
Go to the One XL forum if you have a One XL (which you do).
It's the One X, I promise. I don't know anything about recovery, but it still sends me update notices
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
No, I can assure you, it isn't.
Two reasons; the One X is not available on AT&T (despite what they call it), and there is no 2.2 update for the One X.
Explain that then please. I used the root for the 1.85 HTC One X and it worked, and in the same thread they said the OTA update ATT is trying to push was the 2.2 which had no way to root yet. It's a new phone for me so I want to learn what I can and can't do yet
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
Explain? Again you're ONE XL..
Look at the 4G LTE Icon.. It is XL like benpope toldyou.
"root for the 1.85 HTC One X", again because youre on XL not X. There is no rooting on One X currently unless official bootloader unlock AND One X have no 1.85 version numbers.
Alright, no need for feisty, just trying to learn about my device. I do have root though, ig I'll settle for that
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
Well, let the 2.2 update go through and lost my root access...whatever phone I do have, not even Supersu or ota rootkeeper saved my root.

received ota update and rooted

I received a 1.25 mb ota update but I am rooted can I install this safely without messing up my htc one x it is unbranded
I think it's a OTA for preparing your phone to get the JB upgrade, I downloaded the same update, but for forcing JB update, only to see what's inside and it had 1.25 mb.
nr 502...
Where abouts did the OP Mention JB??? Seemed like a legit question to me. Don't be so quick to jump on people's backs man
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
Yeah. I got that update too?? Optus Australia. No JB yet.

flash stock recovery.
And use a search button.....and post in the right part of the forum ! This is the general, you belong in the Q&A part with these things. And yes there are numerous posts like this with the exact same question ..... we keep on repeating ourselves for ages in here ..... and so it is !
No problem make the update
I think I heard somewhere that if you are rooted and you do get an OTA and install it then the update will re-lock your HOX and you'll need to root again...
I could be wrong
It doesn't relock the device, it just removes the root, you can apply the root easily after the update !

Slow phone after 4.1.1 update

Hey guys. I updated my phone 0n official 4.1.1 international rom. Also its rooted as well but the bootloeris locked.
Anyways my phone is really slow now. The available ram is also only 180 mb or more. Everytime I open any folder on the desktop its opens with a lag. The home, back key don't respond well either.
Whats the problem with performance now?

Did you have updated with bootloader locked?
If yes, did you make a full wipe?
No I updated with bootloader locked. Also I did full wipes and cleared caches
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
It's strange...
Now you unlocked your phone?
Okk, so here's what I did (perhaps I couldn't explain)...
..I rooted the hox which was at 4.0
..official 4.0.4 ota update came
..updated and lost the root
..4.1.1 update came
..I relocked the bootloader (as it was not updating without it)
..updated it successfully
..now phone is slow
