Updates don't work with custom recovery installed phone. Flash stock recovery and lock your phone first to get updates

yes you will loose root. You cant do updates with a rooted phone you must unroot to get the updates

Can the HTC one x receive system updates if it's unlocked??

And on another carrier ??? Just wondering.

As long as your device has the stock ROM, yes you will receive the OTA update even it is unlocked.
To successfully install the OTA, you need the stock recovery.

Yes, if there is an update for your device. Make sure you enable all the apps that you disabled if you did that before. If you did not disable any app, then you are good to proceed the update

Just flash stock recovery first and as long you dont modified anything, just rooted, the ota will go through. I heard you might loose the root after ota.

You already in stock 4.4.2 just rooted and twrp. All you need is stock recovery and checknthe updates and receive the ota. Check the xda thread if its true that once you accepted the 4.4.3 ota, you will loose root.

i can root in 4.4.3 ???

I was on the original 1.12 firmware, but here was my process.
I relocked my bootloader, used the 1.57 RUU to return to stock. Updated to 4.4.3 with the OTA, went back through the HTC Dev unlock process to unlock my bootloader, then flashed TWRP.
From there you can install a custom rom or use TWRP to inject root to the stock rom.

No. I had to go to the HTC Dev site and put in new token info to get a new binary.

[Q] Applying VM 816/a5_chl OTA update to rooted phone

There has been an OTA update pushed to VM 816s for about a month or so. I know that normally we cannot apply this to rooted devices because of the tampered flag being set off and not running the stock recovery. Is there any way beyond running RUU and getting to complete stock to apply the update? If not, does anyone know how you can extract update from an updated phone?
Sent from my HTC Desire 816 using XDA Free mobile app

Unroot through the SuperSU app and reflash the stock recovery.

Please Delete. I screwed up and double posted.

I tested this last night, you don't need to re-lock the bootloader. Just unroot, flash stock recovery, and apply the update. No need to lose data.

can't get it to work

Hmm.... I updated via OTA and I looked at the version number.
I used the RUU and looked at version number and they were both the same though.

Can I reroot after update

For some reason it's being a pain and not allowing me to install the update. When I flash the recovery and attempt to boot into it to for a system update, all I get is a red triangle with an exclamation point through it

HTC Desire 816w OTA
I have the ota file for the 816w A5_DUG. All you have to do is unroot, flash a stock recovery, and flash it in stock recovery. Thats what i did. I made sure to make a backup before all that if screwed up, not to mention a titanium backup.

Thank you, can you tells us what rom version this is to avoid a mismatch with our phones.. perhaps you can make a backup (CWM or TWRP) and post download link.

It is the Europe ota. I won't be able to post a twrp back up until tonight because it's my girlfriend's phone

So, D816W users receive OTA yet? Did anyone tried this method?

have you tried it ??

Why not a twrp backup? Its faster and easier to use. I'll try to get both. I'm not a fan of switching recoveries all that much. I'll do it though

Here is the CWM backup, twrp is on the way.

Was your device previously rooted, unlocked boot loader. Did you unroot now and received official OTA update?

Excactly. I had to unroot. The most important thing I found is flashing correct recovery. This one I found on this forum from version 1.60 was causing problems on my device, so I had to extract recovery from OTA. After flashing it everything was ok, except error with file /system/xbin/nc but workaround for this was already described.

I'm updated, my version is 816 W (unicon).
