Rogers OTA Update?

I'm assuming that an OTA update for Rogers Dream phones is going to get pushed out soon. If anyone gets this please let us know. I'm having a hell of a time getting the HTC Camera to work again on the new Android release.

Will there be any prompt letting us know we got the update?

I think on the T-Mobile G1 there is an option to check for updates but I don't see it on the Rogers HTC Dream...

OTA update?
I have a rooted Dream. Is there any reason not to allow this update??
That is, will is affect the rooting?
Edit: Not that it has come down yet ... just wondering.

If you switched over to using the testkeys you wont be able to install the update as it is using the releasekeys.

Just a selfish bump, sorry to those who read it for no reason.... I wish I could walk in to a rogers store and check the firmware on their new rogers.

Rooted

So im rooted my xperia play r800i. Got 3.0.A.2.184 2.3.2
How can i update to 2.3.3?

If you have a locked bootloader then you can have a look at this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1116090
I used this method and now have rooted 2.3.3

I think I'm going to root this weekend. Has anyone from Rogers rooted and went to 2.3.3 rooted? I have an R800a model. I have to uninstall stuff all the time because it won’t use the SD card. I can't even open Google Talk when the memory is low.

Check this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1119074&highlight=rogers
He had rogers. Rooted it on 2.3.2 and then upgraded to 2.3.3 still retaining the root. Though i am not on rogers but this root method worked for me too.

If you flash UK generic rom as he did, the phone will look for a UK update and not the one for canada. So you will be able to update OTA.

Help please guys..
OK, so I did the PC update to 2.3.3. Didn't like it without root
So I used the above processes to get back to 2.3.2. All good but data dont appear to be working. Phone calls everything else is fine. Data is enabled but I never get G H or E in the status bar.
Any ideas? Do I neeed to get onto wifi to download carrier settings?!?!
thanks in advance

[Rogers]Rooted 2.3.3 via Xperia_Play_Release_Generic_UK
It's the same method as the other thread, just edited for clarity.

You have a locked bootloader I'm assuming?
Not exactly sure why this is happening for you but this is exactly what would happen with my phone before I flashed to the uk generic firmware. I was thinking it had something to do with some removed SE software (was rooted). I would probably try starting fresh and flashing the Xperia_Play_Release_Generic_UK.ftf with flashtool, root with gingerbreak and then try ota update again. As soon as I did this OTA update went through without a problem. I'm just guessing that maybe you're running a carrier specific firmware vs the generic UK. I've flashed my phone multiple times with that firmware and flashtool and never had a problem (until I do something stupid and have to reflash ). Updates are not region specific but carrier/firmware(which is provided by your carrier so same thing ...) specific. This isn't your problem of course, just saying rogers firmware will only poll rogers for ota updates, the same with other providers firmware. You might want to take a look at this post though http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14726176&postcount=41 hope it helps

thanks for responding...
thinking about it, I may have caused it. After doing the generic Uk flash. The last message said on the flash tool said to. enable debugging and reconnect.
I then pressed the root button, but it did not work. Stupid as this was for the x10 I think. Guessing maybe this changed something that causes the ota to fail.
I will just have to start from scratch.
thanks agin for your expert advice.

Here is a link that confirms Gingerbread update is now available for Telstra AU.

Hold up, Moto sent a message out this morning, but it still isn't actually rolling out just yet. Batches will start by the end of today.
EPIC fail again for Telstra Atrix by Motorola Australia.

Shows as available now on Telstra website

I have already flash 1FF-olympus_emara-user-2.3.4-4.5.2A-74_OLE-20-release-keys-signed-Telstra-AU.sbf , do I still need this OTA update? or they are the same?
Can anyone tell me that can I flash ANY rom (eg: at&t , ME860 etc ) or only bell and telstra ROM only after a unlocked boot loader + CWM? I m not sure cos I just got my telstra MB860 yesterday.

Telsra has nothing to do with rolling out the OTA. It's now Motorola that is responsible for updating. Check the Motorola website and they still haven't got the ATRIX listed for ant updates yet. Try your phones settings update and there isn't anything else either.

I flashed the gingerbread sbf that was posted here a few days ago. It's less than impressive. I was considering rolling back to 2.2 but decided to give CM7 beta a crack and so far so good. The phone is like a rocketship now!

Is the bootloader open?
Thanks

I have the new Telstra update installed and would be willing to help find out. If someone could leave instructions in this thread, I'll have a crack at it in the morning.

Loaded gingerbread last night via WIFI and it took 2hrs to download. But everything is running really well now.

Update ! Fail
Hey Guys,
Attempted update numerous times. Failed every time.
Was rooted, but have unrooted.
I don't think there's anything that should stop it from updating to GB.
Any suggestions on a fix?
Anyone else find it crazy that Telstra finally gets its butt into gear just before ICS?

Rooted the new update with the application found here.

bootloader unlocked?
Anyone else not get their bootloader unlocked with the 2.3 update? I had to manually unlock mine, but in the end it was fairly easy using the guides on here.
Just that i heard/read that the bootloader was supposed to be unlocked with the 2.3 update, so thought i would ask.

No it was still locked. The Telstra update sbf was more a service sbf than a complete upgrade/wipe (I tested this by flashing the sbf with RSD lite, over the air as well as the Moto Updater - results all the same) - as in you dont lose any of your settings or apps, just updated the OS but doesnt do anything else.

I just used this guide:

and this to unlock bootloader:

you can tell if you are unlocked, as when you turn on the phone, it says "unlocked" in the top left. cant miss it.

att update?

i think it was last week att roll out a update for s4 and i hear it fix the lag and heat issues? than i try to update but it failed...is there another way to update again? because the message won't pop up anymore. FYI my s4 is rooted and i removed all the att bloatware without backing them up ;/

May be you can restore back to factory via Kies, then check software update again. If it say wait for 24hrs or something, just change the date .

That is why the update fails. You will have to restore back to factory with Kies or Odin.

oh but is the update worth it tho? do the new roms come with those updates?

It doesn't fix the 'heat' issues?
It supposedly doesnt even fix the lag according to the changelog.

S10+ Unlocked from AT&T - will it update?

So, I live out of the US and I don't have an AT&T SIM. I bought an S10+ which is (I assume) unlocked from AT&T, so my SIM is working. Out of the box it updated to g975usqs1asd9. I've read on an AT&T support page that the device must be on AT&T network to update.
Now I'm slightly worried, will I receive more updates in the future because I will not be in the US that often and on AT&T. How did it receive this one?
Is there a way to continue OTA updates in the future with the stock ROM?

You can flash through odin. Unless things have changed, I've never had an (non-iphone)ATT phone update OTA when on another network.

Ok, so that means I should just monitor when new versions show up and then flash them manually. No big deal, I guess . I've done this before, but I was never in this kind of situation.
