where does it hang? downloading? installing?

got it i had to flash an older ruu on to it before i could update but all done now yippe

Hi there,
I have a similar problem, so didnt want to open a new thread...
I'm not very clever with these things - so please bear with me.
My SXL is rooted and (boot) unlocked but I havent installed any custom firmware. I also got the OTA update today, but when I try to do it, it gets stuck on a picture of chinese writing (green) and the website:
bbs.anzhi.com
I originally intended on getting ICS via custom rom but I'm not thinking that the official one may be what I'm looking for - so how do I go about fixing this?
Thanks in advance!

[Q] Unlocked N1: Can't update HBOOT or to 2.3.3

All,
I unlocked the bootloader (I see the unlocked padlock at the bottom of the screen at boot) some time ago on my N1. Now that the official 2.3.3 update is out, I thought I would give it a try.
I keep getting 'signature verification failures' when I tried to install either the official or other versions of 2.3.3
So, I learned it was likely because my HBOOT needed to updated. I downloaded an tried to install the new version (0.35.0017?) and it sorta acts like it is going to update it, reboots a couple of times, but doesn't seem to work.
Could someone please give me some guidance on exactly what I need to do from here to get the 2.3.3. update applied?
Thanks in advance,
-Rob
You most probably have custom recovery, and your problem isn't bootloader at all.
Flash the stock version packaged for custom recovery, found in Development section.

I don't think they would so fast. If gmkv would like to test for us though, it would be much appreciated. Also perhaps an extract of the radio?

What kind of customizations did you have installed before taking the OTA? Were you S-Off with Revolutionary? Did you have a custom recovery installed? We need more info since this OTA just came out today...

So you have the Revolutionary HBOOT 6.13 installed, correct? That is what is preventing the OTA from installing correctly. You need to reinstall CLockworkMod recovery and restore your backup or install a rooted Rom.
Hi!
I have the same problem, az Hiaken_Ace has, after I updated my phone, I get stucked on the green HTC logo screen.

My phone is S-ON, it is non-rooted, it run Sense 3.0 with Android 2.3.5. I have tried factory reset with SD card, and without is. Any ideas, how could I revive my phone?
OTA kills
I have also the same problem, after I updated my phone, I get stucked on the green HTC logo screen.
There are even more Guys in the android-hilfe.de forum reporting this.
Can someone try tacoroot?

Seriously guys, who told you to install this ota? Unless you receive it on your phone, don't install it.
We need more info from the guys who semi-bricked their phones (stucked on the green HTC logo)
Do you have an unlocked bootloader, do you have HTC drivers and adb / fastboot installed on PC, are you still covered by warranty, did you see any errors when the ota was installing, do you have revolutionary hboot installed, can you or do you know how to enter hboot or recovery, are you rooted and finally do you have stock or custom recovery?
Put it all in one post, maybe we can help.

Ok, I received a notification from the phone, that I can download an update. My phone has/had official ROM, and this was an official update, and I thought, that official updates are secure.

My bootloader is locked. I have adb, and htc drivers, my phone is covered by warranty(but if it is possible, I don't want to use it, because in Hungary I have to pay the post fees, and it takes "a lot of time" to get the phone back).
I was working while my phone was updating, and did not watch the full time my phone, but have not noticed any errors.
My phone was NOT rooted, it has S-ON, and I used official rom, as I said before. And unfortunatelly I do not have any recovery images.

Official OTA ICS update fails:

Hi All,
I need help for the following issue,
today i got notified by my incredible S that a software update is available,
I accepted and downloads starts, finished, choose install and the system checked the downloaded package, then phone rebooted to start the installation, then a blue android logo appear on the screen along with "!" inside a triangle, and phone was stuck on this for more then an hour before i took out the battery and restarted it and it is now back normal but on 2.3.5
anyone faced this matter and found a solution???
the phone is rooted, unlocked bootloader via HTCDEV website, and all the crappy HTC application uninstalled including htc sense and everything.
any help will be very appreciated,
thanks.
Problem solved:
-relock the bootloader:fastboot oem lock
-create a gold card: http://androidforums.com/desire-s-all-things-root/500543-guide-how-create-goldcard.html
-download the ICS RUU suitable for your phone: http://d-h.st/users/Inferi0r/?fld_id=2601#files
-put the gold card in the phone then run the RUU
DONE

OK, so if you have modded the stock ROM by removing HTC applications and Sense, then that is why the OTA update failed.
To accept and install the OTA you must have all the stock components in place, HBOOT, recovery and all the apps.
Download the stock ice ruu exe from the thread listing in the dev section.
Make a goldcard and then install.
Remember this method I think will work with a compleatly stock phone meaning s-on locked bootloader, no root and no custom recovery. Do this at your own risk. I have a inc s with cid 38, It worked for me.

i have checked your suggested rom but it seems not to work with my S ON hboot version
would it help if i do the following?:
restore all the stock application from titanium backup
and then try to accept the OTA update?
or as naathaanb96 suggested to simply unroot, lock bootloader?
i have tried to unroot using htc tool V3 with no luck: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1343114

As the previous poster suggested, just relock the bootloader and then run the official ICS RUU using a goldcard.
Then since you have unlocked your bootloader before, you can simply use the same unlock_code.bin to unlock the ICS bootloader and then you can add a custom recovery and root the system.

[Q] Updates

Hi,
I wanted to ask whether I will get the official OTA update if my bootloader says *TAMPERED*.
Also, what else could prevent me form getting the updates? I am running this ROM.
Thanks for your time.

Yes you will get the official update but you need to have the stock recovery installed, so when the update comes out flash the stock recovery using fastboot, do the OTA update and then reflash TWRP or CWM and thats it.
You'll need to lock your bootloader aswell.

Actually No you don't have to as long as you have the stock odexed ROM and the stock recovery you can do the OTA!

Didn't work for me when I went back to stock, OTA failed but worked after I'd relocked my bootloader.

That's weird, it worked for me when I updated to 1.24.401.8 last week!
Thanks for the answers. My ROM should be de-odexed. That is a problem I presume?

It's needs to be the stock ROM in stock form, without modification, otherwise the OTA will probably fail.
Retested this morning, update downloads, goes to install but stops part way through and shows the red triange with exclamation point ... That's on a stock, odexed ROM with stock recovery.
Several times I have run ruu on pc to go back to 4.1.2 using 1.28.401.6 ruu, then with S off and super cid and unlocked bootloader have successfully received and installed Ota updates up to an including 2.224.401.8
I am convinced that ota are no problem with unlocked bootloader.
Don't know if s off effects this

having issue with ota update after reflashing stock recovery

Hello,
Let me start by just saying that I'm very new to the whole rooting and android development scene and I'm.sorry in advance if this question is noobish. Anyway I have an at&t HTC one m7 that I unlocked the bootloader on, flashed twrp and rooted. The device was working fine no issues ,recently there was an ota update that my brother got for his all stock m7. So I flashed an img of the stock recovery and relocked the bootloader in hopes of having the update install. I know it would remove my root access but I didn't mind that .
Anyway now my device is telling me there is no more ota updates available.
This is odd because I tried to do the update before changing anything back a nd it got stuck when twrp launched .so there is an update available.
Is this normal or is something wrong? thanks!
Edit, i cant words
