Enquiries regarding after rooting

Hey,
Can I do a software update in case htc sends a new update for the gingerbread, after I root?

You could but you would need to replace CWM recovery with the standard HTC recovery first before you attempted to download and run an OTA update.
The best advice I could give you is wait for the update to come out and then update using a fully rooted version of it so you won't lose root. With almost all of the newest GB updates that HTC has been providing for their different models, they are fixing all known root exploits and applying an OTA will cause you to lose root without a way of getting it back easily.

Thanks alot!!!!

You're surely better off to avoid ota updates and just install custom ROMs, you should be able to get
a close to stock one

Link which Bell raider checks for upgrade

If I am not wrong the link where HTC checks for sw upgrade is in build.prop.
Would it be same for all carriers and if not can some one post the link for Bell raider stock Rom.

This post has the link to all shipped roms including bell. The bell Rom is the first on the list with "bm" in the name.

@Nastas82 - what Zombie is looking for is the web address where a Stock Bell Rom checks when it polls HTC for updates, if I am not mistaken.

I actually got them from the bell stock Rom and updated my build.prop.
I hope Bell releases the ics Rom soon....

Good thinking. Your sig says you are running stock, but I guess not if you did this prop file editing? I'm currently running WC's last GB release, but am thinking about relocating and going back to stock in hopes that the OTA will work. As anxious as I am to get the new HBOOT, I'm also thinking that Bell has never been quick off the draw to release updates, so it could still be a while...

If you're running one of the Sense 3.5 ROMs, I'm pretty sure you won't get an OTA notification, even if you set the right update-check address in the build.prop.

Yes I am not sure if it would work but was worth changing as no side effects .
I know Bell is testing this and the sensation One should be out 1st. I hope someone with the test device leaks the Rom.

Shouldn't be too long of a wait now with it already rolling out in Australia and HTC announcing they started rolling it out. Hopefully another week or 2 and it hits Canada

This article was from Feb 17th, 2012.

Kind of ironic that the Raider is absent from HTC Canada's Facebook page.

The htc blog link posted above was released today by htc. I am not sure if Bell sensation got ics. The post says that ics will be first so I guess we can expect something after that.
Unless someone one leaks it before.

Mobile syrup reported the following this morning:
http://mobilesyrup.com/2012/03/14/htc-gives-an-update-on-where-the-ice-cream-sandwich-upgrade-is/
Basically says Sensation is rolling out, Sensation variants to follow in next few weeks. Nothing specific on the Raider; just an affirmation that it is coming... Frustrating having no sign of S-off, sitting on the sidelines reading the threads discussing ics on he other carrier Holidays...

Have you rooted your velocity/holiday/vivid??
I have been trying but with no success

Delayed SMS / Phone calls hang up

Hi guys, I've had this phone since last year and it was on 2.2 froyo. I decided to use alpharevx and s-off my phone and all that. Later on bell sent an ota so I went back to s-on and it installed everything fine running 2.3.3 gingerbread. Since then I've been getting delayed SMS and all that and its very annoying! Sometimes messages take 10 minutes to 2 hours to receive messages! I've tried flashing different radios but didn't fix the issue. Should I just send my phone in?? Thanks. Also HBoot is 2.00 and radio is the latest from Bell.

So are you S-On again?

Nope, trying out Nik's sensation xl Rom again, haven't gotten a delayed message yet. But when I was on Virtuous Affinity I'd get delayed messages a lot!
Sent from my HTC Incredible S using XDA

I'm running IceColdSandwich 6.2 and I don't have any delay issues but some are so I'm not sure exactly if it's a radio issue or a location issue.

Guess I'll have to find out, I just don't wanna have to send my phone in haha.

What version radio are you running?

Sent from my HTC Incredible S using XDA

Same problem
Yup, I have the same problem. I get delayed SMSes or sometimes, not at all. Sometimes the calls do not come in (people who call me receive the message 'the phone is unreachable' when in my phone there is 3-4 bars of signal showing).
Don't know what the problem is. I am on Virtuous Quattro RC3 (ICS rom). I tried to go back to stock with S-ON , but the OTA updates did not work, so reflashed

Have you tried any other radios? The 29_M radio seems to work well for me.

Okay, well I just flashed the 29_M radio, still using Nik's sensation xl Rom. Haven't seen any difference in reception, but will let you know how it goes!

Check the SMS issue and let us know if this new radio helps.

[q] M7 unlocked and rooted ota update possible?

I unlocked and rooted my Sprint HTC One and it is running great. I used All-In-One and made sure I used the Sprint versions of All-In-One and SuperSU. My concern is will I still receive OTA update from HTC or will someone post updates on this website so I can download them?

Stock. Relockthe bootloader
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium

Usually someone posts the update and if ur in a custom Rom the developers update their Rom according to the update. I would avoid any ota updates as some end up removing root
Sent from my EVO using xda premium

Ok I guess I wont worry about OTA updates then - I like the Sense rom on the M7 - its like the best rom I've ever used.
