Has anyone ever succesfully used the update feature? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello all.
I have a brief question. Under the settings menu in our sgs, there is an option to update etc. Has it ever worked with any update? For example, when the next update is available is it worth bothering to check through that instead of kies, or does it not work?
Thanks

No. It's just there for decorative purpose. Seriously.

Has it been included on any stable firmwares yet though?

I have used it twice on my nexus one and updated. Has never done anything on galaxy s. I think it may be a Google phone feature. Eg nexus one, nexus s.

Incredible Vibration Problems

Ok. I updated my HTC Incredible S to Android 2.3.5 with Sense 3.0. It is the official ROM from HTC. However, I seem to be having problems with the vibration feedback on the device.
I can barely feel anything at all! Nothing from the keyboard, nothing from the soft keys and nothing from Teeter! Any ideas???
Have you had this problem since you bought your phone?
Maybe check your settings? Or did you already do that?
No. It's been ever since the update. Ive checked the settings and they're all fine

[Q] After rooting and custom Rom can't connect to xda forums

Hey guys I picked up a bell mobility HTC One in Ontario Canada the other day. I rooted it and I stalled CWM and installed 2 different roms now one was CM the other was coin's. For some reason when I pull up the xda app or try to bring it up in the browser it never connects. I can loaf the home page but not the forums and the app goes nowhere. It worked fine on stock. I have the standard version of both roms installed. However this only occurs when I'm connected to the mobile network it works fine over WiFi. Any ideas?

Here I'll get the thread going.
Could this have anything to do with firmware?
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
Installing latest firmware only takes 5 mins, so it's probs ideal to give it a try. I was having issues with call quality but firmware fixed it!

I never experienced this, but if you tried 2 different roms, Firmware is your best bet for solving the issue. I am on bell too, so I am not sure why it happened to u and not me.

HTC One TV app isn't working.

Hi there,
I've got a problem with TV app on my HTC One.
I'm running Viper Rom 3.1 RC2 (3.62.401.1) and since I've upgraded my HTC to newest firmware 4.06 the TV app won't connect to the server.
I'm not sure if the problem is because the ROM is different base than my firmware or I've done something wrong.

Same here...except I'm on stock. Tried wiping app cache and data, and even did a factory reset, but still no joy.

I'm not even rooted. I have s-off and unlocked, but that's it. I'm sure it was working a few days ago, so maybe it's something at HTC's end.
I am as stock as stock can be, and noticed this morning that the app is "unable to retrieve data from the server". I had assumed this had occurred since I received the 4.3 upgrade a few days ago (EE)... perhaps not?
That is exactly what happened to me. It was working fine till yeasterday and its says that it cannot rretrieve data from the server.
Let's hope it's only HTC bug and it will be fixed.

Response from HTC:
Thank you for contacting HTC regarding your HTC device My name is Michael and I am a Technical Support Agent for the HTC Written Team. I'm sorry to hear that you are experiencing difficulties with your connection. I have noticed that you updated the phone recently, this could have created the problem, a lot of the time updates reconfigure the system completely, add some new features and erase some old ones. Maybe there was just a problem with the server (connection). Should you wish to continue your correspondence via email then please reply using the link below. Kind Regards,
Well that's not very helpful, is it?!
Typical.
Looks like any one can be a tech support in HTC.
I'll ask question in firmware thread, m

Yes, works for me as well.
Looks like to server is back online.

[Q] HTC One Sense UI / Launcher

Hi im not sure if this has been asked before or not, but i just wanted to know if it is possible to run a different launcher or UI on the HTC One? I am trying to make the decision to buy one after too many faulty Nexus 5's. What i would find ideal is to have the HTC One running Android KitKat 4.4.2 with Nova Launcher, is this possible? Also what are some of the best custom kernels one would recommend, i am used to Dev's like Franco & Faux, anything out there as good if not better for the HTC One??
Thanks in advance
Yes you can use any launcher you want. AFAIK the sense widgets won't work with them though

Great, thanks. Have you already got your KitKat update? How long does it usually take to get the Android updates on this device?

Not long at all if your installing ROMS. We don't usually wait as long as non root users so for updates. That's why I don't usually bother with update times when picking an android device because I'll always be a root user and get updates before everybody else.

For all I know everybody is praising HTC for they're quick update times on the One. I'm not 100% sure but I believe we recieved KitKat before any other Android device (Besides the Nexus 5 ofcourse)
