"androidandmedotcom/2010/09/carriers/sprint/sprint-rolling-out-minor-bug-fix-for-the-htc-evo-4g"
While Samsung Captivate owners are grabbing their GPS fix, HTC EVO 4G owners might want to check their handsets for an update as well. Sprint is pushing out a new update (3.29.651.5) today which should address some issue that EVO users have been complaining about for a while.
The minor update fixes the calendar editing and multiple Gmail account sync problems. I have not been able to download the new firmware update yet, but if you want to manually check for the update, follow the steps below. As usual, Sprint is being pretty quiet about the update, so we have no indication as to how fast it will be rolling out to all HTC EVO 4G users.
Manually check for System Update
From the home screen, press Menu
Select Settings
Scroll down and select System updates
Select Firmware update
Engadget is suggesting possible FPS fix...

Will update potentially eliminate Unrevoked 3.21 Root?
I've not heard a decisive answer on this one. But is it safe to assume that a Sprint update will reverse my EVO's rooting via Unrevoked 3.21 or possibly cause problems with the device?
Not firmware update....HTC software update
Wow, there is an update coming out today. Would have never known if it wasn't for all the other posts about this in the correct section......

It does unlock 30fps but I wonder if the kernels we have now are still better? I have no problems whatsoever with Kings#9.

It'll probably be in your sdcard download or downloads folder. Then usb it or email it to a pc (generic sense) then post it. I haven't tried to load attachments from the evo to the forum, though that would also be a method. You may even be able to use "share"..
So can I install this on my full root fresh Rom and be good to go, or do I have to wait till fresh puts out an update.zip with this included?

You download it to your sd card and boot into ACER RECOVERY to initiate the update. you have to come from a certain build in order to use it though. Visit Vache's thread regarding OTA updates for more info.

Downloads fine. Right click and save target as to wherever you want.
Be responsible and read up before you try to update unofficially.
.10 is an incremental update for .08 which is a US Version of 3.1.
If you attempt going from .38 or .40 which are foreign versions, you'll likely end up messing something up or having issues later on regarding apps, the market or future updates.
Likewise, if you attempt going straight from 3.0.1 to 3.1 using this update, you'll likely end up in misery.
Read, read, read. You've been warned.
Good Luck.
Update:
It's come to my attention through user qhinton that there is a full ROM update of .10. Note that the file kappen has posted is the INCREMENTAL and not the FULL ROM.
I have not verified qhinton's claims. Just keep in mind that you must now be extra careful not to update with the incorrect version. You may just be better off waiting for the OTA.
Is anyone in the USA getting the update OTA? I'm still on 3.01 in Missouri

That is VERY interesting indeed, let me get this straight, you went from 1.141.02 (3.0.1) to 4.010.10? (3.1)
How big was the file you got?
I haven't read of a single other person getting such an update. Once I am able to verify what you've said I'll draw some conclusions. If it is the case then .10 must come in a 2 flavors and people will have to be even more careful about how they update.
It would mean there's an incremental (~47MB) version to take people from .08 and a full ROM to take people from anything earlier than .08.
Edit: OK you answered my question while I was typing it
So there are definitely 2 versions then, an incremental and a full ROM. Thanks for the information. I'll update my previous post.

Thanks. Very weird it isn't working for me. I will have to try later when I get home. Maybe my WiMax connection is breaking the download...
What's even more interesting is that it said .10 when prompted to OTA but when I check system info it says 4.010.11 Gen 2

Please download alogcat from the market and run during acceptance of the update so we can log the ota location and make it available to the less fortunate.
If you can't figure out alogcat, Whenever you get an update prompt on your tablet, look in the /cache/recovery of your tablet while it's downloading and copy and paste the filename somewhere then you can post it publically and it can be downloaded from something that looks like this - http://cdn.acer.futuredial.com/Acer_...xxxxxxxxxx.zip
I had 4.010.04 when it downloaded after I posted this I tried to apply it and got a error I just assumed it was because I was still rooted and had the Acer recovery flashed on my a500. I was at work so left it alone until I could get some more free time.

I have been trying to install this OTA that you furnished. My efforts keep getting aborted. MY tablet keeps saying that the file is bad. and aborts. From this download file do you have to extract it or decrypt it or something that I do not know about?? I would like some information and help installing this update.

You could try doing a factory restore of your tablet in the system settings/privacy menu. This worked for me. It will wipe all your settings and installed applications so be forewarned.
I am beginning to NOT trust these Acer updates. My A500 was brand new out of the box and had just applied a small OTA update. I had to factory reset it again after that for the larger 330mb update to work.

Yeah, it should work just fine. It'll update her's from Froyo to this Gingerbread build and when the official version is released by Verizon/HTC, she should not have any problems updating.

Good question! I'm assuming the OP just means that it's "official" in that it was made by HTC and hasn't been modified. I haven't read anywhere else that the 2.11.605.0 release will be the OTA release.

They will be termed "buggy" in my opinion until the VM notification is fixed. If you're using this phone in a business environment it's more "catastrophic" than "buggy".
Google Voice is a good alternative. Kinda glad this bug was in these builds cuz it got me using GV

I beg to differ. I've gotta bug (that could be the result of user error, but I don't think so) When I get a call, no one can hear me unless I'm on speaker or Bluetooth. I haven't seen any posts from anyone else with that issue, but it's been only since I flashed this leak.
Edit: I noticed someone else had the same prob on the previous build and wiping then reflashing fixed it. My 4g is working much better... Hopefully voice and sporadically missing texts are fixed too.

Anyone having issues with getting the ota MF3 update? I've tried updating my software on my phone but it says my software is up to date. I have set my clock forward several times but I still can't get it to update. Also, Samsung Kies (which is such a piece of crap) says my software is up to date even though I have mdl. Anyone had any issues with this and have a fix?
i'm assuming you either not rooted or are rooted and dont care about losing root?

That is correct. I've had some issues with my wireless and this update is supposed to fix some wireless issues.
if you're rooted: i would research and try one of these MF3-based roms. any changes you may be looking for should also be contained in that rom. it will be rooted, hence allowing you to keep root as well as the option to revert to any other rom you may want to try later.
if you're not rooted and dont care about root: you'll have to wait until you receive the update. when that happens, kiss the possibility of root goodbye. you may not care about that if the wireless issue you have is resolved. however, if that issue is not resolved in the MF3 update, you cannot root and try another rom nor revert to a previous firmware version.
Are you wanting to root or flash custom roms?
Yep same here stock att s4. Of 4 phones two updated to mf3 and two didnt keep saying up to date. Not sure why...did att stop Rolling out the update?
Im happy with stock...not intention of rooting (though I have rooted my epic 4g in thw past). Using holo launcher to hide touchwiz. (I dont think it has to do w that)

I have no intention of flashing custom roms but I would like to root in the near future. Fixing my wireless issues trumps rooting though so I have to wait for a new root to come out that's fine.
If you are on MDL, and you have no intentions of rooting right off the bat, and you want the MF3 update, make sure your status is set to official and manually move the date up 1 day, to force the update.

This forum is for the AT&T Galaxy S4 and I posted my issue in the AT&T Samsung Galaxy S4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting. I'm pretty sure my issue constitutes Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting. I posted here because (for the most part) people on Xda know what they are talking about and I wanted to see if anyone else had this issue and has a fix for it. You don't think I've looked around the AT&T forums? Once again, if you don't have anything constructive to say then don't say anything. I'm just trying to find a solution to a problem. Just because I choose not to root my device or flash a different ROM to it doesn't mean I don't have a right to post here. I may do so in the future, but right now I don't feel a need to.
