Sorry if a new thread wasn't needed but I couldn't find any info on here. I'm usind darkstones froyo with sence and I got an ota update, I've downloaded it and it keeps asking if I want to install it. I haven't yet for fear of messing something up. You know the old if it ain't broke dont fix it. So do you think if I install it it will mess up the custome work he did on the rom or should I be fine? Has anyone els recived an ota update? Thanks for any help.

I was thinking about rooting my incredible and by skimming the forums i see that an update is preventing a few from re rooting or rooting in general but my actual question is when u guys are saying "new" update are you meaning the update that i received a day or so ago with the vcast app store or whatever it is included in the 17mb file...is this the update u guys are talking about or is it like a software update that i must not have recieved yet? Thx!

The latest OTA (with VCast Apps, etc) is not working with Unrevoked/ClockworkMod. I don't know if you could still root manually. Hopefully someone else will chime in. I am rooted with Unrevoked and the last OTA did not work for me. I don't think I want it enough to go back and flash the stock recovery to get it.
Hi all. I'm new to this forum as I recently gotten my HTC Desire HD and I wanted to make it faster. with an custom ROM.
I actually get stuck at the 2nd step of rooting my DHD so I don't got allot info to give.
I recently had an update which was for the camera and the touchscreen itself if I remember right. but I really regret it.
I've got VISIONary+ installed. and when I press "Temp. root" it'll show a yellow triangle and I can see it load. but after a minute or 2 it only shows a black screen. I've had it on for almost 3 hours now. and I can't seem to get past it.
If you need more info, I'll provide it.
I hope somebody can help me with this one. since I really want a custom ROM on my DHD.
Sincerely,
Aliq
Hi
The new updates stops temp root etc etc... So you will need to wait till the devs come up with a new method.
It might take a while as most devs wont unroot and lose s off ....
But you never know, but if post your version of firmware, it be your doing something wrong?
But if you updated you'll need to wait.

No that will get you back to your original 2.2.1 you are going to loose all data though.
And u know 2.2.1 cant be rooted yet.
I didnt think I was going to get it OTA (since I have a custom rom/kernel) but I did today. I am wondering if it is ok to back everything up and just update the phone OTA? I was waiting on Herver to come out with his rom for EB13 but if this wouldnt cause any problems I will do it. Plus the pop up keeps asking if I would like to update...
Thanks for the help guys!!
I wouldn't.

Yes. If you don't wish update right now, you can get rid of the notification by deleting the System Updater apk in the system/app directory.
Either return it to (basically) stock or get the di18->eb13 cwm flashable update that can be found in the wiki or the dev forum.
My desire HD i bought unlocked from amazon. I rooted my mobile using visionary and rom manager. 2 days ago i got the update for gingerbread 2.36. I downloaded the update and tried to install but the got exclamation mark. I tried to manually update I got error (Status 7). Please help me.
Do you really want to install an OTA update that will remove root?
If not, then you can simply flash one of the many existing rooted Sense based GB ROMs.
Yes I want Install OTA. I don't have a problem of loosing the root. I don't know how and I am new to andriod
Maybe to ask someone in dev section :S try there mate
Strange but each to their own.
Not seen this before, sounds like the update download might have corrupted. But even so, I'd be tempted to hard reset (back everything up - search to find out how) and wait for next window to update.

You need the full stock ROM if you want to update, if you've removed some stock HTC aps (Amazon for example) you'll get that exclamation mark again and you will not be able to update.
I recommend you to read the root/s-off/radio-off/ how to flash a custom rom guide and install a stock gingerbread/sense w.q rom.
This is what you would get with the OTA update despite the.fact, that you still have a rooted phone

. This is a strange thing today . i restored my backup which i had done when i first rooted my willy in 2012 . today i restored its backup from cyanogenmod recovery and suddenly i got a 4mb update right from official HTC . OTA_Buzz_Froyo_hTC_Asia_India_2_25_720_4-2_25_720_1_release_270480yuz9aaesnb40rr2p
well this update contains ehancements,including:-emergency call support due to new network configuration change...
but i was SOFF the phone might gave a signature error with the security certificate. so the HTC remained on the htc boot logo.... Anyone interested in this file let me know i will upload it,,

well, it seems to update most apps by a little bit, but what the updates are i am not sure. The thing thats confusing me is that the date stamps are all "wrong". this is dated for september 1st 2008, but if it was new it would be 2014 or similar. best guess is that this was an update for your old rom that you never got before you flashed a custom rom but i dont think its "new" as such. If you wanted to flash it you would need to flash the stock recovery from a ruu as i suspect it wont be compatiable with our edify recovery versions.
well i had updated everything the time when i rooted.

You wont have to go back to s-on at all
Just flash the stock recovery from fastboot. then run the update from the stock os, afetr the reboot flash clockworkmod recovery.
Also since google dropped support for froyo on the google play store this wont solve that issue
head over me to official recovery threat
