[Q] OS update failure

Hi folks,
I am not familiar with the terminologies that is used in this website, and the thing is i was trying to update my OS on HTC incredible S using the official OTA update, but during the update process after downloading the update package and amid the installation it was shut down automatically and its now like a dead phone and i can't either turn it on anymore and it always gets stuck in the installation process every time i try to turn the cellphone on. To my knowledge, It seems that it has lost its boot file and can not load the system.
It would be appreciated if you guys could help me figuring out what has happened to my phone and what i can do to recover its normal status !
BTW, my cellphone is nor rooted and has no warranty !!!
Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.
Regards,
Saeed

By hboot i suppose that you mean holding down a specific key and then booting !
I have tried that but the problem is i think because the update process was interrupted while installing the new OTA, i guess the device has lost its boot file and i need to do something to recover it.
BTW, i have heard that some guys try to change the board in order to repair this kinda failure !
What do u think guys please help me recover its status .. i'm so pissed off

Did you try taking the battery out and putting it back in?
Also if it did shut off during radio or hboot update you now own some expensive trash.

Also there are variety of recover options, one is J-Tag, second fastboot methods and so on. Soon, if ai have free time I make you a guide about it.

Software Update from Samsung

Sorry if this is a repost but I cannot find my answers.
I keep getting this mandatory software update from Samsung

Is there any way to make this download stop because it is doing it on its own and draining my battery.
I dont need any updates, my phone is just fine as is.
Thanks for any help

I'm not sure of both what version of your fw is and how are you getting the update. Is it thru wifi/3G, or is it thru kies? But I'm guessing is thru wifi/3G (its called OTA update, OTA stands for Over The Air). go to settings>about phone>software update , and uncheck auto-update.

Have you tried to make sure kernel version match your rom version yet? If yes, then maybe reflash the kernel or change rom should solve your problem.

[Q] HTC One M8 - Factory Reset Custom ROM help.

Need some help! I lost my phone last weekend so used the android phone finder and performed a factory reset. Long story short the phone was returned to me.
As i got wifi the phone then reset. The venom rom i was using then started playing up. I reflashed it but the wifi no longer works. This is the case with various roms and now it says my mobile is rooted and s-on. The phone still has twrp 2.7 running on it.
Could you guys please advise what I should do here.
Thanks.
