Update to Build 4.08.605.19 Published on February 1st, 2013 Written by: Kellex DroidLife.com
The original DROID Incredible by HTC, a device released almost three years ago, is set to receive its next OTA update. The update is minor to build 4.08.605.19, and simply includes a fix to reduce reboots, but man, how random is that?
We didn’t think anything could top the randomness of the Thunderbolt Ice Cream Sandwich update that popped up yesterday through Big Red’s support site, however, it’s safe to say that this just topped it.
The update is 4.2MB in size.

Love it. Seriously though if we are still seeing minor ota's for GB we should have ATLEAST got ICS 4.0.something. I wonder how many Inc's are still activated on Verizons network.

Well considering the extreme annoyance caused by the 2am reboot thing that was introduced with the last OTA, this update was long overdue. Hey, an update to ICS would be truly awesome but it would be a bit bigger than 4.2Mb I dare say (and would involve a whole lot more time and money to develop, something that would be very majorly hugely unlikely for a three year old device like this).

Verizons excuse is they didn't want to have to repartition the internal storage which would be required to fit ICS and all their bloat.

Oh ya. I kinda figured it would be some stupid HW limitation preventing us from seeing official ICS but bloatware is the worst excuse ever.

Cm 10.1 doesn't even fit well on the inc without some tweaking. There's no way a sense ICS will fit on 250mb when AOSP is smaller than sense. Do you remember how the sense build that I worked on with puremotive needed symlinks to fit and that's the lighter version of sense?

Coincidentally, I was thinking of sending my old Incredible back to stock in order to attempt maximizing its stability, because I'm giving it to my kid as a games platform for travel, etc.
The phone is no longer registered on Verizon's network, so I'm guessing that means I would not get access to an OTA update if I placed the 4.08.605.15 RUU on this phone - correct?

Any idea how to stop the nagging about this update? Running wildstangs 4.08.605.2 stock ota. I stopped the last nag with a simple edit, but can't remember what it was.
Try flashing this through CWM. Worked the last time on the OTA, should still do the trick.

Thanks omniatic. What is that apk? I was just coming back to edit my post above. I was referring to editing the build.prop to stop the OTA - not that I'm against using your attachment.
FOTAKill.apk. Not sure how it stops the nag, but it does.

Yes the update is now active. I saved it if anyone wants to root it and or check it out. I have not installed it.
I have the stock ROM.. I got prompted to update an hour ago.. it went through fine. I was hoping it would fix the proximity sensor bug which drains the battery (dialer process in battery view). Haven't checked whether it was fixed yet, but I doubt it.
FYI, I'm using the phone through Page Plus.. which relies on Verizon's network. I never expected to see an update for this phone..

Was your phone rooted and s-off prior to the OTA and if so, did you lose root? Have you tried to root again?

The OTA was pushed to my phone while using the Sparkplug rom. I saved it but I have not installed it yet in fear of losing root. I have 3 Incredibles and they all belong to my kids. I'm going to attempt to root it and install it to see how it runs.

I'm amazed of pace of ICS development for Hero.
Too bad our Pulse device (msm7200a) failed to hold ICS properly due to minimal RAM on it.
Your development helped me to fix trackball, being as a mouse pointer before.
Good luck.

""Shooter on Deck""
It just won't let me RUU it. Keeps giving me a USB error. And it won't let me install none of the sense Roms, or Radios. So, instead of messing with the updates, it at least allowed me to install the last cyanogen nightly.
Can you believe the sprint store kept him on Cupcake? They must have really wanted him to upgrade to a new phone. He took it in last week and that's what they recommended. He fell back in love with the phone when I updated it.

My setup is clockwork 2.5, and Rom is the last cyan nightly; which is 252. Cpu is 710, jit, non firat, regular setup, ex explorer, with every eye candy feature disabled.
What I was trying to do is setup two roms. One being sense and one not. Was going to use sense to change the prl and update the latest radios, then switch over to the nightly, but it just wouldn't work out that way.
Funny about the nand. I did do one, but gave me a md5 error when I tried to put it back. I've never came across such a troublesome Hero before. But, you know how that goes, there's always that "one" that wants to be unique.
But at least I got him running on the nightly. So he's really excited about his Hero again. Now people are not receiving his text hours later like before. His girlfriend is happy.

So with ICS on the way to OTA within the next few months, there's sure to be some custom ISC roms for the bionic, right?
Since JB is an incremental upgrade from ICS, will developers be able to get JB on the bionic before it's official announcement/release?

In order for JellyBean to be fully functional on a device, it needs a kernel that supports all the features that are a part of the operating system.
Since Moto's phones have a locked bootloader, it prevents the kernel from being modified by anything except official updates from Motorola.
If we see any JB ROMs on the Bionic, they're going to be incomplete and unstable (like how ICS ROMs were before the ICS leaks) because they won't be able to run with a kernel that supports all its features.
Imagine having a Nissan and wanting to put a Honda engine inside it instead. None of the connectors and parts are going to fit together properly and you're going to have to make a bunch of small hacks/mods to make it work, and you can only hope that it behaves properly once you put it all together. That's pretty much what it's like to force a kernel mismatch on locked bootloader devices.

This means almost nothing for the Bionic. The Bionic gets to be saddled with a kernel for ICS 4.0.4 which won't support all the upgrades and tweaks made for JB. If we get a JB ROM it'll extremely difficult for 100% of the features in JB to work.
Hash code has kexec fully working on the Droid 3 running his 3.0 kernel. He has a cm9 rom for it almost ready to be released. On his twitter he said that he plans to port kexec to the other phones he supports which would be this bionic and the Droid 4. Dhacker is also working on jb for the razor which he plans to port to the bionic in the meantime.

Good news, but we are still playing the waiting game. Kind of BS for a phone that I paid $300 for. Its "My phone", and should have been unlocked a looooong time ago as stated by Verizon and Moto. Q3 2011 if I recall correctly. Oh well, I'll deal with my ICS leak until its official as at least it saves me the frustration of wanting to throw the phone against the wall.

I'm not a developer but, its my under standing that CM10 is Kexec ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kexec ) which allows the JB kernal to run on top of the ICS kernal and bypass MOTO's signature checks and locked bootloader. They have just started developing CM10 JB for the Bionic so they are having data issues and the camera doesn't work. Another guy said bluetooth doesn't work. Its not ready to be a daily driver yet.
Now on the plus side it is FAST and SMOOTH!! Google Speak is AWESOME!! Way better then Siri (Siri still can set appointments GS can't). Even though this is in Alpha stage and it came out 2 weeks ago IMHO this is going to be the way togo very soon once they get a few bugs ironed out. It will get there. We still don't technically have ICS for the Bionic and I can almost bet my right arm MOTO will not release an OTA JB.
Once they get everything up and running I would jump on JB for my bionic in a heartbeat...Having ICS is nice (honestly I forget it's not the official build because the phone runs so much better already) but nothing is as smooth as butter.
agreed

So I had Jelly Bean on my N7 from factory. I decided to root it, and I used the toolkit to root it.
It reverted it to 4.1 and deleted everything (basically a stock flash) which was irritating, but I got it all set back up.
Just got a pop up to update it to 4.2.
What should I do?
If 4.1 is better, how do I make the pop up to update go away.
If 4.2 is better, will I maintain root through the update? If no, how can I, or reroot.
If 4.1 is better is kind of personal choice, most like the 4.2 update, some hate.
Technically it's better because it comes with new features but it also nixes a few like tablet UI and some of the new functions are still a bit buggy (esp. multiuser related things).
Not sure you can get rid of the update dialog permanentely.
If you just let the update go it's course you'll loose root - but that's not a problem, as you can simply re-root after the update.

anyone?

Bootloops have nothing to do with the recovery, they are usually caused by incompatible system data from a different ROM.
Since you'll be updating the "same ROM" to a newer version (stock 4.1.x to 4.2, if I go you right) everything should be fine.

This is what I know. Correct me if I'm wrong.
The N7 gets a reset when you unlock the bootloader, not by rooting (flashing su.zip) or flashing a custom recovery.. This is supposed to be a "security feature" by Google.
The S3 comes with an already open bootloader. Furthermore other vendors might not have included this "security feature" in their phones/tablets.
I did the OTA update to 4.2 and did not lose root. Prior to update I was on stock 4.1 with Trinity kernel and rooted using nexus toolkit and CWMR. Only thing I had to do was flash back to stock 4.1 kernel as the OTA failed with Trinity, then using CWMR installed the update that was sat in the cache. At the end of flashing the update CWMR warned me that the ROM I was installing wanted to use its own recovery, click no to keep CWMR, then it warned that root may be lost, click yes to keep root.
No other apps needed and I'm now on stock 4.2 with root access. Only thing in have lost is my tablet interface from build prop tweaks. Once I find a way round that happy days!

As someone who has owned the Bionic since launch, and just jumped to CM 10.1 a few days ago, I'll chime in here. It's a much better phone since CM 10.1. That said, be prepared for issues initially. I had a lot of problems and was ready to give up - until I did a factory reset on the CM 10.1 ROM. If you decide to make the switch, you can root, install SafeStrap, and flash CM 10.1 and Gapps with confidence, as long as don't mind doing a factory reset and rebuilding everything. Since the phone is new to you, that shouldn't be much of a deterrent.
I personally would recommend making the plunge.
Thanks a lot... is there any thing not working... i heard the camera is fixed...

If you decide to make the switch, you can root, install SafeStrap, and flash CM 10.1 and Gapps with confidence, as long as don't mind doing a factory reset and rebuilding everything. Since the phone is new to you, that shouldn't be much of a deterrent.
I personally would recommend making the plunge.

What did you mean when you said you had to reset on the CM ROM? Does the ROM still stay on the phone after the reset? Also, what did you have to do to rebuild everything?
I have another post asking for advice on rooting and ROMs. If you could help me out too, that would be great. I am interested in CM.

After installing the CM 10.1 20130326 NIGHTLY for the first time on a newly rooted Bionic, the phone was extremely unstable. A factory reset made all that go away. I elected to download all my apps again for a fresh start. Right now, it's working well.

All the early bugs have been fixed with the exception of the speaker phone. I stepped away for Icarus and now I am back

It's so hard to wait. Really getting on my nerves.
Still on DP5, no OTA yet. Im in Kosovo, Europe
Nexus device blues
Having a nexus 6 and now getting the OTA update as soon as release as previously expected.
we will see it in a couple of weeks.
Who needs the stock images when there are already custom roms on the market.
Much better flashable zip. No encryption and custom kernel

As long as Bootloader and Radio dont change from DP5 to Release. Custom roms are the best route. :laugh:
I am even on preview 1 bootloader and no problem at all. Runs super smooth and root is working. All my apps are fine. So take your time Google

Out of curiosity I see you list velocity nougat for nexus 6. I searched on XDA but couldn't find anything except for an HTC device. Mind if I ask where you got that rom? I'd like to scope it out, thank you in advance

Velocity is from the psx def. He is not on xda. Just building for himself and I am a tester since day one 4 years ago. It's only available on a German forum. N is not official, so I can't. But if you Google my name with velocity you will find.

Not really a wise option. The roms right now are hacked together with bits and parts from other stuff and without an updated kernel many things are causing issues and you dont get all the new under the hood improvments.

We have kernel source for DP5. And as of right now the AOSP r1 source hasn't changed much from DP5 to r1. Or thats what the elite guys have mentioned.

Yeah I have the source and alot is still missing compared to the DP5. I have spoken with most teams and they are all of the same mind. Until it is fixed they wont build for the n6. Some are even gonna wait until late September or October before even attempting to build it. We are all over Google groups complaining about it. Most think it has to do with Qualcom and the new Vulcan stuff that qualcomm is refusing to support on some chips.
We can only wait and see. I personally am not touching a single rom that is built at the moment. Not a fan of hack together roms.

Not with a device I rely on. My device is a tool not a toy lol.
Plus I make my own roms and only use roms made by a very few others. To be honest only 2 teams do I trust their roms to flash to my device. I know all too well the risks involved in flashing roms.
Nexus 5x is live Come On GOOGLE!!!
Velocity was a ROM by Trident in the LG Ally days, woah they bring me back. Back to Android 2.2.2!
