Downloaded the 3.2 update, didn't install, how to delete? - Acer Iconia A500

I have downloaded the 3.2 update and haven't installed it yet, but it doesn't still want to remind me of the fact many times a day. Any advice on where to go to delete that bad boy so it stops annoying me and I stay on 3.1 with root?

I had done the same......after a while the tab itself deletes the update and when you click on install for installing the update you will have to download it again....that time just cancel it...and you are done.

I kept getting the original prompt for the update over and over.
On my MT4GS, I did the same thing, downloaded and deleted and it never came back, so I was hoping to do the same thing here, but the downloaded update didn't appear in the download folder. Now I'm not sure where it is.
Is that a problem, or do you still not understand simple topics?

Sprint rolling out minor bug fix for the HTC EVO 4G

"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'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?

[Q] Noob ? about Rooted phone and OTA's

I one-clicked rooted my Epic and have DK28 installed. Since then I uninstalled some bloatware (amazon mp3, Nascar...) and installed Wifi Tether. So here comes the noobie question, what would happen if I just installed the OTA after the 26th (assuming this date is actually correct)?
PS. My GPS sucks right now, so, if the OTA is a horrible idea. Would using odin and going back to DI18 be possible with the root and uninstalled apps. From there I could flash back into DK28 and hope for some accurate GPSing.
Thanks for your Help
Cheers

once you root, you CANNOT RECIVEVE OTA's. you will have to flash another rom that has that OTA as a base for it.
So then do you suggest using something like odin to flash back to DI18?
I am sorry for my insane noobdome, very new to this whole business.

You get OTA's while rooted.. but if you've modified anything else you won't get the update.
So in order to get the OTA you will need to odin back to di18
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
You wont be able to get the OTA, but I would recommend just waiting a couple hours after the first OTAs get pushed and there will be few a pre-rooted, CW-redirected basically stock builds pushed out by the developers. Then you can just flash those, and they will be basically stock but have the root goodness and you wont have to go backwards just to go forwards. When the "official unofficial DK28" dropped, it was only a couple hours before devs had them out the door.
Dont worry about the ota ,wait until its rooted and cooked up for us it will be very quickly after it is released. Besides the ota inst coming Sunday anyway. we may see it sooner who knows.

That's not true. You can as long as you don't remove any sprint apps or flash a custom rom. Rooting does nothing but given what is essentially administrator (aka superuser) privelges. You will lose root once the ota hits, but I won't do anything to harm your device. However, it will with stck apps removed.
To answer the ops question though:
Download titanium backup from the market and backup your apps and data. Odin back to di18 and then use the same oneclickroot (assuming you got it from the sticky in development) to get root and reinstall titanium (it requires root). Run a Batch reinstall of all missing apps and data. Bingo. You'll have everything back to normal on di18.

Manually Check For Updates on your XOOM

Just FYI anyone waiting for the xoom update it hasn't been successful for me yet but i will try every couple of hours. If you manually set the date to a farther ahead date say a couple days your xoom will check for an update. i noticed the time changing everytime i do it under system updates. So anyone wanting to force an update check change the date you can always just re check auto time.
Poop I Want it now.... is it including the bluetooth mouse support?

dev forums mention that you loose SU and have to redo the rights but then good to go.
just did this as well, tried it two times in two minutes.
First, nothing happened but the time changed for the last update.
Second time when I clicked the system updates under settings it popped up saying I had a new update.
Downloading now, well see how my rooted wifi only handles it!
Just finished... And nothing happened. I am still on 3.0.1, this happened earlier when I got an update notification and clicked install now or whatever.
Anyone know why this might be?
3.1 has a "check now" button.
The OTA update won't go through if you're rooted. Flash using one of the methods in the development section, or return to stock and wait for the OTA all over again (which is what I did.)
Did anyone update and not have it work? I installed the update and everything seemed to go well but after I checked about tablet section and it still says that it is 3.0.1. I am rooted running an older version if titamat. Haven't messed with it yet, at a first communion but was hoping someone had this problem

Yes, you can but it's a pain in the butt. Go to this thread and then download the original stock firmware. Make sure USB debugging is turned on also.
To install the file you need to have HTC Sync installed and running. Double-click the file and it should recognize the phone and start installing after some input from you.
If you get a USB error, try booting into the bootloader and installing the exe in the same manner.
I just did this last night because I was in the same situation. It works.
Now you can re-root.

I guess I feel pretty lucky then. I'm fairly certain I didn't miss any steps.
When I upgraded to the gingerbread stock ROM I used this link and chose the "no hboot included" option. Maybe that saved me.

It's still the same update. Whether I installed it through an OTA update or from the bootloader doesn't matter.
You guys can get into the bootloader right? Take one of those modified "official" updates, rename it to PG06IMG.zip and flash it from the bootloader. Then do my first post and flash to Froyo so you can root again. May be worth a shot.

I posted the same link in the beginning of this thread.
Unless you have an engineering bootloader, like after you rooted, you can only flash an an un modified pg0610.zip from htc. So any one who took an over the air update is SOL on that front. Best hope now is that the evo 3d root can be applied here

Xda app issues with Rendeiro's scramble mod

So I have been using the scramble 2.2.1 from Rendeiro2005. Very happy with it and will stick with it until there is a good 2.3 mod out.
One weird issue I have been having is that I am unable to update the XDA app that came with the mod. When I go to update it, I get "installation unsuccessful". I tried to just uninstall and reinstall and I am unable to uninstall. With root uninstaller, I get "uninstall unsuccessful".
Not a huge deal, but it is a bit irritating. I looked through the whole thread in the developers forum and didn't see anyone else with this issue. Anyone have any ideas about this?

It is odd, because the OP on that thread was having issues with calls and other things because he didn't patch his baseband. I am on 2.1.54 and not having any other issues besides this one. Do I need to do something with the baseband?
you are not able to update XDA app coz its in /system/app folder and not /data/app
as per my understanding
that's becuase it comes packaged with the rom itself.....
BTW any specific reason why you want to update the app...

I checked for an update because it crashed a couple of times and it gets hung up every so often. I uninstalled it with titanium like in the other thread and I am now getting "Incompatible Update" just like that other guy. Now I have nothing.
I made a backup with xrecovery about week ago and I guess i can restore that to get the app back, but I would like to fix this instead. Is there some reference I can remove to be able to install the app in the /data/app folder?
