New HERO update released - Hero, G2 Touch General

Looks like it's something to do with Utube and client update (whatever that is).
http://www.htc.com/europe/support.aspx

NO...
there is info:
Update Information: Firmware over-the-air (FOTA) client update & YouTube player Update

Can someone who has this come up get a logcat of the url please.

Change the system date and the update notification will pop up.
Nothing changed besides the Youtube player (it is working now, geez it just took HTC 5 months to fix it)...and the settings menue look differently.

Moved my date forward to 16th June (Yesterday) then allowed the phone to re register on the network and it the update popped up. Didn't take long to download (it is only a minor update at the moment though) It took quite a while to install though (about 20 mins until it was fully settled).

Oh, right, it's because I have a HTC Hero Orange, but I've got my T-Mobile sim inside, I guess that would matter, silly question to ask, but need it answered.

just that the weather on the homepage of my touchflo didn't update untilI ran the quickgps app
Weather application is not linked to quick GPS but HTC location service.....assume you have enabled that... btw it is not a very stable program
Sometimes you have to update more than ones......and finding your current location with google maps helps.....
have ur ISP settings set to ur mobile operator , connect to update , just for 1 second and turn it of , i mean the connection , update QuickGPS and try again .... i'm not really sure if this helps but everytime i do somethin in my internet settings , the Weather tab resets it's places hope it updates properly now !
still nothing.
couple months ago i downloaded some file from xda which fixed this problem, but now i done hard reset and i can't find it anymore on xda

I've sent 2 times a support form to t-mobile in germany, asking if they would be delivering the weather fix for the german market... so far no answer. The first time was right after the fix was posted by htc in December, the second time I posted this was a week ago.
No answer whatsoever.
Bleah.

And may be they wont do it mate.
Quite propable, that they won't do it. The same behaviour has been with other german t-mobile branded phones - too much hassle to properly test patches etc, with no real possibilities that it would bring money in.
I'll follow the hspl stuff how it advances and after some observation period will flash myself too.
After all I've been flashing my Blackstone and Kaiser for a while, so this is not a big issue. My wife is using the phone and she doesn't have the "same urge" to have her phone flashed

whoa. just having said that previous thing... going to the ROM section and finding out, that T-Mobile has released a new ROM just today

Why is Twitter slow on update?

Hi!
Is it just me or why is my Twitter not upated as soon as a new twitt is written.
I have made a small test and when i write something on my PC's twitter it takes a while before i can see it on my HD2. How come?
Get the TouchTwit app. It's like $2, and I've found it to be way more useful and prompt than the included Peep program. Not perfect, but better.

I've the same problem, in the settings I've set the update to every 15 minutes, but I have always update it manually. When I wake up in the morning I always see that the last update was around midnight and that update was done by myself.

Then we have a new problem/bug for them to fix....
My guess is that we're never going to see any fix for our problems now when there's new models out on the market that needs fixing as well But i read a thread about the U.S model have had a new ROM that fixed every problem the old one had... I'm glad for them and are hoping that the rest of the world can expect the same treatment.
Not any fix atm?
have no idea, think its something wrong with the program.... hope they update it someday

HTC Sense Web Page

Hello guys, I just noticed that https://www.htcsense.com has a new look after login. What do you think, is it going to be fully functional until the end of the year 2012?
Just checked www.htcsense.com and i found that It Works. See attached pictures.
Whoaaaa...I didn't even know this page existed.....just tapping my login details and gonna check it out.....
thanks

They still haven't fixed it!!!??? What a waste of time for them and us!
F*** me, if they haven't done it by now they never will...
This was always the screen from i could remember, there was a fully working site last October 2010. but since then this is the site i always see!!!
i dun think so...
Update
I updated first post with new pictures.
This was one of the things that led me to getting a DHD in Oct 2010 with the UK release - it worked for about a week - then never again and I cant see HTC ever getting the full functionality back.
TBH I'd forgotten all about the site!! I'll have a look in and see though.
ok this is what I get..
Uploaded with ImageShack.us
Where has locations, messages etc gone!! It still can't do the basics like locate my phone, even though I have a GPS lock and 3g at full strength?? (Lookout found my phone in under 20 secs and was bang on with the location)
Well done HTC...FAIL!
It did and does work. Yes I did have issues with it but deleting your account on your phone and then setting it back up again sorted it out.
To take full advantage of it though background data and auto sync must be enabled. This is my problem with it as we all know what having them on does to your battery.
Edit: one other thing, update schedule should be set to "as items change (push)"
I had a webchat with HTC support this morning and they say that HTC Sense has been shut down until further notice.

Ok guys, look what hapened. Two weeks ago my sense account from phone started to bother me with a password request because somehow it saw that my sense account pass was changed(i didn't do anything). I contacted a operator from HTC on live chat and sayed what was hapened. He told me that they do meintenance to servers and in 3 weeks I will have a completly working sense account on web. Looks that passed 2 weeks and some changes appeared. I have the same issue with communication between web and phone (no comunication), but seems that from just a dashboard menu i have another ones visible. Let's wait another week and see if they keep their promise.

Here's a Pushbullet channel to alert whenever a new Nexus 6 factory image is posted

This is automated; it runs on my server. It doesn't rely on manual updates, so it should be pretty quick (the script checks every 10 minutes). Let me know if you have any issues with it. I have a channel for each Nexus device if you have others; check my signature for the full list.
Enjoy!
Great idea, very useful.. Thanks
Very useful indeed, Thanks.
Thanks!

Could you make one for OTA files? I still have a locked boot loader and don't have time to spend resetting the phone again for the sake of flashing an update :/
Interesting. I have a 6 I purchased with my activation of Fi. My build number isn't listed on that Android page. I've got Build LVY47H
Very nice. No longer need to spam refresh the image page

Unfortunately not. The reason the script can be automated is because the factory images page has a set format that I can compare against--essentially, the script determines if any of the individual device tables on the factory images page has changed, then it grabs the new version text from the table and pushes to the appropriate device. There's no official source for OTA builds, and even though they're hosted on Google's servers they have randomly-generated URLs so I can't programmatically check for them. The best solution would probably be to subscribe to the factory image update channel, then check XDA every so often after a new build comes out to wait for someone to post the OTA update itself. Sorry about that!

Yeah, I saw this post yesterday then looked around for that build. Looks like it's a special build that's only on devices directly purchased from Fi at the moment. If it ever gets added to the Nexus 6 list on the factory images page it'll pop up on the channel, but if Nexus 6 Fi devices have their own set of factory images I'll have to add a separate channel for them, which is no big deal. Nothing I can do at the moment though unless/until Google changes something on their end.
As a sidenote, is your device codename shamu like a normal Nexus 6? If you don't know for sure, you can check by going to Settings --> About phone, then tap "Send feedback about this device", then tap the small "system information" link. Scroll down in that window a little bit and it's under the heading "Device".
Thanks for the detailed explanation, I hope that the OTA comes soon... Then again, I'm probably due a spring clean factory reset of the phone anyways ... I just don't want to, it takes up about half a day to configure! (I'm no longer a rooter and modder)
Is it still working? Can't see the MMB29K being posted there.
thank you

This looks like a great idea, but I don't see any updates newer than last October. Is this dead or do you not consider the security update releases as factory images? I installed the MMB29S image in early January.

Sorry, Google changed the format of the page and I'll be honest, I completely forgot about this script since it was self-sufficient for a long time. I'm working to update the script, should be fixed tomorrow.

I just got the new pushes and all is well with the world again. Thanks!
Just curious if you don't mind me asking, but what script are you running on your server that queries Google's site and how did you get that connected to your Pushbullet channel? I'm thinking of doing something similar elsewhere but I don't know where to start since I'm so new to scripting.
Great job, using it for a few months and it works really well, is it possible to have a channel for Android N preview?
Great job, man! :good:
But... it didn't work with the last update of yesterday, October-03, at least for the Nexus 5 & Nexus 6 channels...
Maybe it's due to a change in the Factory Images page, with that new "Acknowledge" button next to the text "I have read and agree with the above terms and conditions"?

Official OREO has rolled out

Just got official AT&T OREO update. Little over 1.4gb build CRC2
I received an OTA as well. 1407.35MBs. Still downloading!
Mine still says software up to date. I hate att.

Use BK Disabler and clear the data for Software Update. You should be able to check again. I believe you can only check once every 24 hours or so. Good Luck.
I just used Odin to go back to nougat and as soon as I could get to my settings I was able to get the OTA.

Easiest way to keep checking is to advance your phone's clock ahead one day then try again. Just remember to turn the auto clock detection setting back on.

Mine did that as well for months. My last update was when I bought the phone back in Nov. I did the update.zip method and used Smart Switch to backup all to MicroSD card.
Received this update today without needing to change the date. Running nicely so far, just wish the gif keyboard wasn't removed for us.

I have it on mine as you can see in this screenshot. When I heard the update was coming today, I factory reset before I took it. When it booted up, it updated during the setup process.
Edit: wait, are we talking about the same thing? Do you mean the feature where you can draw a gif message?

Not the live message, I have that. There is a gif option on the keyboard from other carriers. For some reason AT&T left it out.
In developers options there is the ability to change Bluetooth Audio Codec to SBC (default) to Aptx, Ldac, etc. If you change that it doesnt stick and it resets itself to SBC. Bummer.
Also the only option that does seem to seem concerning Bluetooth and Developers Options is Bluetooth AVRCP Version. AVRCP 1.4 is default but changing to AVRCP 1.6 seems to stick.
Meant to post this last night. Here's screenshots of my for full use of the OTA Oreo. I'm a teacher on spring break so I messed around with it a lot yesterday getting all my settings and apps set up.
So I decided to try the Samsung Experience 9. The badge number for Gmail isn't showing the proper numbers. Anything beyond one unread email shows some stupid huge numbers, such as 4 unread email, but the badge showed 169 ... LOL So, this is still buggy.

Yeah this is the only thing about the new update that is bugging me. The badge numbers can be way off. Other than that I am really enjoying the new update and my phone is so fast now.

Don't know what's worse... badges with wrong numbers or badges that don't come on at all. I get none at all. And I even factory reset before I took the update. I got no clue, even after spending tons of time digging through settings
