It's not an ota it is a leaked ruu. Ota for international is probably a week out and for us a month or so.

Knowing Sprint we won't get this update for 6 months after it is officially released internationally. Android handset manufacturers need to take a cue from Apple and tell them that they have no say in updates other than makeing sure they are compatible with the radios on a particular device for their network. If Apple can do it so can they, or does apple hold a patent on that.

Yeah because "knowing" sprint is the thing to say when they have been the fastest US carrier to release updates... Damn you sprint for being semi quick about it.

My point is that the carriers hold up updates period. Doesn't matter which carrier it is. Sprint may be faster than other carriers I won't deny that, but they still delay them for what ever reason. I am not hating on sprint alone, they are all guilty of it. I realize they need to test the software on their particular network but that doesn't always justify the length of delay. But thanks for playing.

Just a heads up I downloaded the android revolution 4.2.2 that was released in the International ONE forum and it has a sprint folder in it with sprint libs,etc so you guys may want to check it out. It also has t-mobile and at&t folder too so i guess he's for one fully compatible zip. Dev is a beast. Also the zip is about 1 GB...all the separate carrier stuff bumped it up a bit.
Try at your own risk.....
EDIT...I checked out his install script and he got the right partition numbers for flashing on the sprint one.

I wouldn't say the carriers "hold" the updates. Lots of testing is needed to insure a good product on their network.

Keep in mind several factors:
A. HTC might not even push their updates to American carriers until they're done with international versions, due to customizations carriers require here.
B. Different modems and signal bands require additional development and testing time.
C. The testing of a device is actually quite lengthy, because the last thing a carrier (and HTC) wants is some incompatibility causing interference with towers or something. This is why the FCC checks these devices btw.

My friend on T-Mobile is getting the update OTA right now as I type this... c'mon Sprint!

Man. If only Tmo didn't become so expensive. It was the only reason I switched to Sprint.
And correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the GPe based on a Sense kernel, and only the appearance is AOSP?

Luckily about half of my area has LTE, but the problem is just that CDMA phones get the stinky finger because only 2 carriers in the world use them, Verizon and Sprint.

US Cellular is CDMA. And if you're lucky enough to have them around the network is second to none. But I do see your point. My problem is that my area (Wisconsin) is dominated by CDMA. The networks for T-Mo and ATT are not good around here.

Someone should leak 4.2.2.

So it is pretty clear to me that Sprint was sent 4.2.2 to start to test before the plug was pulled and they were told to wait for 4.3. You know it, I know it, Sprint knows it.
So while we wait for 4.3 I think that someone who knows someone's neighbor's sister's ex-boyfriend that babysits for a Sprint tester should do their best to get a hold of the unfinished 4.2.2 and release it to the masses.
Thank you and good day.

I'm gonna go ahead and go with, you know nothing about the process of which HTC and Sprint use to test together. I would say that they probably never got it, and Jason MacKenzie mentioned that they were skipping 4.2.2 long after the decision was officially made.

Wow, what a waste of a thread.

Funny to see these threads like; "where is 4.2.2?" or "why have US Carriers not released 4.2.2?
With a couple of minutes on Google Search, 4.2 had below have Java Script security flaws that concerns Google; hence the reason they pushed 4.3 out quickly. Why would HTC US Carriers spend any time 4.2?

So basically, to satisfy your flashing fancy, you want someone to intentionally breach an organization's opsec and potentially put someone's job in danger? Nice.

You guys are really jaded and unnecessarily serious around here. Coming from an S2 and S3 I have seen tons of leaks on Sprint. Granted this is HTC and not Samsung, but still. There is plenty of reason to think that there is a 4.2.2 build specifically for Sprint somewhere out there.
There are ways to leak things and keep your job, apparently, or leaks would not exist.

Last rumor that circulated said the update for 4.4.2 was going to be around 01/24/14 +/- so if I was a betting man I'd say it is a minor update to fix the issues with the 12/18 update. That and the HTC site that they say provides "real time updates" on OTA development says sprint is still in the integration phase of the 4.4.2 update (certification through carriers and google would need to go pretty fast to make it out by wednesday). I wouldn't put too much trust in HTC elevate though, the entire site seems to be a "pat HTC on the back" community.

It's interesting to see they keep doing this type of small updates instead of go for the big deal. Unless they are addressing some serious problems(like security issues,) they should test the heck out of their one release and make it solid, instead of pushing one and the other just trying to fix the bugs in the fix they just released. it's a PR nightmare to me for these kind of activities.

I joined elevate by follow a link from here, and found it little use. I can't find any valuable information, but just a bunch of people discussing pointlessly. Anyways, HTC is a phone manufacturer, not like LG or SS with all the material, parts, a lot others. So I doubt they can come up with anything revolutionary. They have better software functions, that's true.

It could well be that in their testing these small Sprint features are breaking the OTA and that these features need to be updated just to enable the OTA.

Agreed... Think about it: would the company make more money by keeping everyone's android system slick and up-to-date, or by enticing those with outdated devices to pine over the newest phone, with the NEWEST OS? Having worked customer service for a VZW contractor in the past, I personally know that making their customers happy (with no direct profit) is at the bottom of their list.

Such as? Maybe I'm ignorant and the signs are right in front of me, but I haven't seen anything that makes me excited to receive it.
I'm aware once the radio sources are dropped and they are put to work a bit then the sod and random reboot issues should be taken care of, but that's about all I've seen being said.

Not sure why everyone is all fired up about it. Not like 4.4 is much different than 4.2
They didn't even give us art.

Bluetooth LTE will be nice to have. I've been waiting for it so I can connect to my Garmin watch and do live tracking. I need at least Android 4.3 to do this. (which VZW skipped )

I can't believe Verizon still hasn't pushed 4.4 update,this is ridiculous :banghead:

I've given up hope. Its the usual state of mind one arrives at when dealing with VZW. You go though denial, anger and rage (quite a lot of rage) before reaching acceptance

You are not far off the mark. It is also possible that they are not going to update the phone to 4.4.2. Just because LG stated they would be for all variants does not mean Verizon will do it. I came from an LG revolution which at point LG said would get ICS, needless to say that phone is still only running 2.3.6. We guessed that VZW cancelled the update. LG support stated that it was working on a upgrade and that it was in testing and then nothing...
I hope I am not reliving things again. If I am, at least the base phone and stock OS are really good.

I don't think so because there's already a stock leak build that works 100 percent. I think they're just waiting and they're gonna merge the knock code in and release it as one build rather than releasing 2 separate ones
