I don't think it is mentioned on the website. (Couldn't find it myself). To get the update, you should tap (from the homescreen):
Menu > Settings > (scroll down to the bottom) About Phone > System software updates > Check now
Make sure you have at least 50% charge before you start the update. More is better.
The details of the changes after the update are being discussed here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=994260

Almost correct, you need to access the bootloader for the PD98IMG.zip to flash. Boot holding Volume Down.

Does any one know How I can install JB? I have unlocked and installed custom room. I relocked the phone but can't return to stock as there is no ruu available for my software version. I have the ota update on my phone but when I try to install it doesn't work.
Ideas?

There is a thread in here (it's quite new) somewhere on backups for different versions, which you might be able to install.
There is another thread on using an older RUU, extracting the ROM and boot.img, and installing them (I think).
Ultimately you want to get to 2.17, 2.18 was unofficial, so I suspect the OTA will only apply to 2.17.
Edit: I might be making that up, maybe 2.18 was official.

I think The OTA is official, its from HTC and i downloaded to my phone ota. It was my phone that adviused me on the update The version is 3.18.751 on the update. Every time i try to load the update it goes to the fastboot screen and wont let me install the update.
2.18.751 is official, release not long after 2.17 OTA. It contained small fixes for taiwan chungwa's One X. If I am not wrong, it doesn't update hboot and recovery version, affecting ROM only.
For OP:-
Best options was using your nandroid backup.
OR
Grab the firmware.zip inside 3.14.751.20's OTA, then flash it like how they did to .401.
OR
There are a custom RUU that can help you convert your phone to taiwan unbranded CID (709) then receive 3.14.709.20 OTA. Your CID will change to HTC_621. You will need unlock bootloader for this method.

Ok i have successfully upgraded. Mudito i used the tool here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1604439
I flashed the recovery image off the OTA update. Im now in 3.14.751.20
I will say i made an error and luckily i didn't brick my phone.
Bacislly i followed the steps from the link above on the video placeing the the official images in the relevant folders instead of custom ones.
I didn't place the correct files on my SD so after doing perm root the phone was locked on a screen(never seen it before so dont know what to call it). Then i realised i hadn't put the files on sd luckily when i reset the phone it turned on and then i downloaded the update and it installed perefctly.
but the used the official recovery/ boot images etc.
android 4.1.1
sense 4+

Hey, I got the EXACTLY same problem as you do - although I'm not using a custom rom, just messed abit with mine too much (CWM + root, something messed up so I can't update even going back to stock recovery), so can you please explain step by step what I should do to get the JB update?
Thanks alot!
(and will this make my phone able to get the next update if one will get out too? I mean - is it stock rom?)

Ok do you have 2.18.751? If you have this version I can give you the update as I have it on pc. Its 3.14.751.20. I just have to work out how to upoad it to xda site.
I woulnt follow my steps exactly as I'm lucky I didn't damage my phone.
The up date has firmware.zip that contains boot.img, recovery.img etc. Follow the instructions Hansen toolkit video on the link. I flashed the HTC recovery and boot image. Then went to perm root my phone. It was on a screen I don't know what to call and was stuck there as I didn't flash other recoveries like cwm etc.. I then rebooted by power&vol and downoaded update again and it instaled. Note my phone automatically advised of the OTA if yours hasn't then there is something different.
I would highly recommend NOT to following my steps. Follow tookit video. That should get you there.
It is the official update from HTC so it should allow future updates.

Thanks guys.
Finally I went the other way... I was trying so hard to do this that soon I realized that I will be getting a custom ROM in a matter of time. But I usually use Stocks Modded ROMs so I did this.
Relocked the boot loader.
Flashed Firmware.zip from the OTA 3.14.751 from OTA.ZIP file. My word here is USE THE FIRMWARE FOR YOUR CID!!! ONLY THAT ONE
Flashed CWM 5.8.4.0 Recovery (i had an old one).
Downloaded Custom ROM (tried 2 in two days so far. same procedure, ARHD and InserCoin)
Flashed Boot.img from that custom ROM.
Went to Recovery, install ZIP from SDcard. and Flashed the custom ROM.
Preety Neat I must say.
Enjoying performance from JB... Photo CAM is insanely FAST
Thanks to Everyone. XDA Is a great place to find info but it could be messy some times.

Shelby5, Can you please send me the link to the video? and yes, that IS my version, and I've been notified of the update - but because of my modded rom couldn't install it.
JB requires a newer hboot, no? mine currently has 1.12, and I've understood that it requires 1.33, so does it cover that too?
Thanks!
about the ZIP file - is it the one that your device downloaded OTA to install? cause if so - I got that one. and if not - I'd appreciate if you can upload it even to dropbox or something for the day and tomorrow so I can download it
Noodlez I can do it for you later Today. Ill msg you later with details.

You don't have to flash a custom ROM you can keep the stock stuff and have a rooted phone. But unlocking the bootloader will delete settings messages app data and contacts so back them up

Rooted with CM10 Flashed
Well you can remove root. But once you flashed a custom recovery you must make a nandroid backup so you have a non rooted stock rom. The only thing is that we can not LOCK the bootloader after unlocking it ! It will say RELOCKED so they always know that you at least habe unlocked the bootloader once !
HELP!
Hi Guys,
I've unlocked bootloader and followed this guide to root: (can't put in URL, but google 'HTC One X Rooting Detailed Guide Part 2: Steps to Root this Android Phone' on GuidingTech)
Problem being that when I get to the following step: Step 7: After the Nandroid backup is done, select Install Zip from SD card and flash CWN-SuperSU-vx.xx.zip (x.xx can be any number depending upon the update you are using).
I don't have that listed. I've downloaded SuperSU from the play store and as the option doesn't come up to move to phone storage, I'm presuming it's already on the SD card...?
Apologies, complete n00b being guided here - was doing well until this.
Can anyone help with why it's not in the list (it doesn't help that the screenshot is not very clear on that step)
HELP!

plaese help
If you are rooted or flashed anything via custom recovery (or even just mounted /system r/w), then you can't install OTA updates without restoring a stock untouched system image and the stock recovery.
See this post for more details.

Hey i had the same problem as you after some hours of trying i got the problem solved, you just need to download this ruu.zip file https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347759368 . Download this file and follow Instruction : rename it too "OPJAIMG" and put it on the root of your external sdcard. Next power down your phone and boot into bootloader your device should automatically detect the rom and ask you if you want to flash it or not for that click volume up button and let your phone do the work. when finish you will be good to go reconfigure your phone and check for software update, download let it install and enjoy
Sorry for the late reply.
As stated above, you can flash a RUU, but that will wipe your data. It's probably the simplest way to get back to complete stock for an OTA though.
If you don't want to lose data, there are stock TWRP backup files and stock recovery images in this thread.
I believe you also have to relock your bootloader if you're S-ON as well. I may be wrong on that point though as I'm new to HTC devices myself.

Hello currently I am using a T-Mobile m9 with a custom Rom. I used to own an m7 before I ditched it for my nexus 5. Today I noticed a security patches released and realized I can't remember how to update when not stock. I was wondering does flashing new firmware still work the same as it did on the m7?
As far as I know, there are RUU files in 2 different formats: exe file which runs form your computer, or .zip files, which are saved on the SD card and then once you boot in download mode it will automatically ask if you want to apply the RUU file; I think you need to be S-OFF for this method though (as soon as I got back to S-ON, flashing the RUU zip outputs an error)

I would look to the thread for the rom you are using, there will be the rom updates and info that will point you in the correct direction.
You need to be aware of the phone status (cid/locked/unlocked/S status) but the thread is the correct place to get all the info
Since you are using a custom Tom I'm assuming you've installed twrp and rooted?
If so, and you didn't follow the procedure to properly backup your system for OTAs then RUU is your way to go (assuming you're not soft).
Anyway head to twrp thread in original m9 development forum and see what are your options.
