RUU Request: 2.05.720.1

For some reason, I'm unable to receive the OTA update1. Im currently on the stock 1.32.720.1. Shipped ROMs also doesn't have this update. Can anyone help me?

Did u got any solutions .. ??? Same problems for me too

I am also in the same product code
Sent from my HTC Legend using XDA App

For some reason there is no upgrade path from 1.32.720.1, only from 1.32.720.2. I guess the only real solution if you have to get to 2.05.720.1 is to find somebody that has it installed - if they can pull the ROM off their phone you should be able to flash it. But I'm no expert and have no idea exactly how they would do that...
Maybe somebody else could provide more enlightenment?

Some body having stock Indian rom?

I do, and now iam on stock 2.05.
I received two OTA updates after purchase.
Htc india doesn't usually get delays when it comes to updates (when updates are released for unbranded handsets)

Can you extract the system image of your phone. This can be done using soft root

Since HTC had pulled off the OTA update from 1.32.720.1 to 1.32.720.2
We are not able to unroot the phone ..
So if we get the system imgae then it can be done ....
Can u help me in that .. ??
With soft root can u try this ...
adb pull /system

Check if this works without any error ...

adb pull won't work on soft rooted phone coz value of ro.secure in default.prop is still 1.

So there ain't any workaround without full root?

It is. First push busybox to /data/local. Do adb shell and then su to gain root shell. Change permissions of busybox so it becomes executable, then try using tar from busybox to pack /system into a nice compressed archive on /sdcard. After that you can adb pull that archive to your PC.

Thanks blayo
Can someone try that..

Here is the process described by blayo in detail
Here is the method
Make sure that your phone is soft rooted using some soft rooting methods
Also there is ~400 MB Free space in the SD Card
Step 1: Push the busybox binary (http://10stones.com/and_bin/busybox) to the /data/local
adb push busybox /data/local

[OTA Captured] German Retail 4.4.4

OTA for German Retail version from 4.4.2 to 4.4.4 started to roll out finally.
Download:
http://d-h.st/gUF
The name of the file is Blur_Version.176.44.1.falcon_umts.Retail.en.DE.zip - as always - it is named after the firmware being updated not after the target one.

Were you on stock recovery but rooted when you got this OTA?

I got this Update today too.

You can always GET an OTA but you won´t be able to install it in some scenarios.
Your system partition has to be mostly untouched, but root and Xposed Framework won´t cause any problem. You can use stock or Philz Recovery.

Also got the update but the installation is failing due to unexpected changes to build.prop. I have removed xposed and anything else I can think of that may have changed the system partition but still no go.
Any ideas? Maybe someone could post their build.prop?

I'm also getting the update in The Netherlands. Bought my phone online amazon.de :laugh:

Well, I can, but can you tell me why are you asking?

I'm rooted and installed the stock recovery then tried doing the Ota (I'm on stock rom if it matters) and it gives an error, just "error" no more information during the installation process.
Anybody can help?

Yes, you have the right version of firmware for this OTA, don´t know why it´s failing for you, there´s too much variables, it´s hard to tell.
As to where the file I posted comes from - it´s right from my phone. Until today morning I was on French 4.4.4, then I flashed the German 4.4.2 firmware to look if I could catch the OTA and it really came, I pulled it from my /cache and posted here. Check out the MD5 sum: d289331e52d0f79d2bcc4b9b390ff338
It´s the same on my local copy, on the cloud copy I posted and also look here:

Apparently the update rolls out depending on that 4 numbers, i think it started from something like 3550 and mine is 3593 so i wanted to see if it is close to my number if you get what i mean.

Why so sceptical? Apart from a different dialer GUI, there´s not much difference you can really feel on 4.4.4, basically there are just some bug fixes.

Perhaps you need to uninstall and remove the modules and the xposed from the system before updating. Xposed and the modules add / modify system files and other sources in the device. Make sure you unroot as the last step as well. Stock recovery is required to install the OTA successfully

Remove Update Nag

Hey guys- success! I updated my wife's phone from the 4.1.2 via RSD Lite to 4.4.2 rooted it via towel root and unlocked my bootloader thanks to motopocolypse.apk Thanks for all the help!
So I have a new issue though being that this is my wife's phone see will no doubt try to install this update- I just want to remove the temptation all together! See the attached pic. No sooner than when I updated this I get this update nag- I am sure this is a patch to .10 to .15 as I am a noob o this phone. I do not see a stock debloated rom for this- maybe a little help to remove this nag-
Thanks!
EDIT- use root explorer root/cache/ delete update Go to /system /priv-app find ConfigUpdate.apk and rename to ConfigUpdate.apk.bak no more nag

You could also delete or rename 3c_ota.apk.
Code:
/ system / priv-app / 3c_ota.apk
You're unlocked, so why not take the update?

But what I do know is that they patched FakeID, Futex & TrustZone. Also SMS/MMS fixes.

But boot.img is totally similar to x.3.2.5 and changed files are apps, frameworks and trapz_scripts only. So towelroot must work.

2.5 won't let us downgrade currently. I wonder if 3.2.6 will. I really doubt it.

I am 95% positive towelroot will not work, unless Amazon got REALLY stupid (and I don't even have the HDX).

I am actually getting closer. I think there is something different in the permissions or something of build.prop. I finally have mine showing the older version. About to try a rollback and see if it works. This is from 3.2.5.

I don't know what you mean by "totally similar", but one small change in the boot image is all that is required to patch towelroot. Take every update with a grain of salt...

No change to kernel or recovery between 3.2.5 and 3.2.6--binary-compared those files within the BIN archive, and they're bit-for-bit identical.
There were noticeable changes to both kernel and recovery between 3.2.4 and 3.2.5 which probably accounts for 3.2.5---and 3.2.6--unable to roll back.

I can confirm that towelroot works.

So how would I flash a bin file?

I guess no one knows then?

If you are speaking about the update bin file you simply copy it to your sdcard and go to settings/device/system update and check now.

Just another confirmation that towelroot does support/works to root the latest update ie., 13.3.2.6 :good:
I have not installed SU yet or attempted to block any future updates. I have read that renaming the proper odex file can stop future updates--any info on this method or other ways to accomplish would be appreciated. I would like to prevent losing root when another update comes along.
Thanks all.
