Ota pulled? - Desire HD General

Did HTC pull the plug out of the ota?
This afternoon I could download it without problems, since tonight there are 'no updates' anymore.

Probably bcz of the dreadly WiFi disconnect problems, i wish i never installed the update.

Also same problem here

Downgrade it then and quit your complaining

I mean't problem with that there is no avalibale update showing...

Same problem here! This afternoon I checked and there was the OTA but I gave it up because I was under 3G, so I didn't update it! When I came back home I've checked for the OTA many times under 3G and under WIFI too but it has been telling me "There are no updates available for your phone"!
Any suggestion??

When you decline it it often takes a few days to show update again even when manually checking. Had this with the Hero too.
The old trick used to be to set your date 1 month ahead (turn off set by network) then restart phone.

I tried it even twice but unfortunately it didn't work!

You've missed your chance, HTC have added your handset to a "Ban List" you won't get the update now. All you can for now is dream about Gingerbread.
Seriously, you'll get the option to upgrade soon enough, give it a day or so.

Thx man! I hope you're right! This morning yet!

As long as the website said there is newer firmware, sooner or later you will get the update, except they pull it off because flaws. (if I remember correctly there is one which is pulled off because of flaws)

Got OTA another one time some hours ago... This time I downloaded and installed it! All has been working well!

a way to root 2.2 with latest ota update?

has anything been released on rooting a NEW dinc? I just got it and the ota went right on to it.
thanx
Rob
The word on "the street" is that Unrevoked is working on it, and is supposed to be out anytime now, and that they have already figured it out for the EVO.
I have been checking every incredible forum and unrevoked website, but havent seen any fix for this yet.
Same here .would they update their website? Or would it be posted in forums. ?
unrevoked.com/
Worked for me and I bought my Inc. about a week or two ago. I've got an SLCD screen. Been running CM 6.1 rc2 ever since I let Unrevoked work it's magic.
I also got an Incredible this week, though I was forced to apply the OTA update as part of the activation and setup sequence. Because of the OTA update, the method that Unrevoke formerly used (rageagainstthecage exploit, if I'm not mistaken?) no longer functions. It seems we're all waiting for the next version as another way in.
i get my dinc tomorrow,im hoping i can root it before i activate it, so the ota dont dont patch it.
I get mine tomorrow too. What I will do is as soon as I get it is turn it on connect it to the computer and unrevoke it. Even before the update popup. And done free forever

I had to get past this screen yesterday with a phone I was changing over to Cricket. PITA but it only made me lose 2 min of my life.
I let it try to dial the activation number and fail. Eventually it let me skip all the screens. I kept on pushing the home button, skip, etc.

I went to Cyanogen Mod Wiki where this method is posted in detail and its for AMOLED screens only. It supposedly will brick an Inc with an SCLD screen.

Market Issues

I'm having a serious issue with the market and I have not been able to find any solutions. No matter what I do, applications will not download. I've wiped cache, dalvik cache, even a factory reset or three and nothing. So I odined back to stock di18 and it still won't download anything. Anyone have any ideas?
Lol - we made threads within a minute.
I've got issues too downloading.

I tried wifi and still a no-go.
Same problem here. Tried downloading an update, and says "Download Unsuccessful" in the notification bar.
I have 2 friends that have the epic 4g and are having the same issue! I rooted the phone for them using the one click root 2.4 and upgrade both to froyo 4.2 beta! I cant say if they had this issue before or not, but they definitly have it now.
Problem: open market try to download any app, it will say that it will download shortly and show briefly in the notification window but then just goes away and never downloads.
I have try connected and disconnected from wifi. Problem still exsist.

Factory Reset 3.1 update

Been trying for the past 3 days with no luck and just did a factory reset today 5/13 and about 5 mins after setup got the update. Can't be sure it was the factor reset but it worked for me.
I'd put dollars to donuts they are purely coincidental.
/edit
Ok, just to clarify -- I'm seeing a lot of desperate people on this board wanting the update. Phased rollouts are just that -- phased rollouts.
There is no chance of "missing your place in the update line".
All Xooms with internet connectivity will be updated.
So folks, don't reset your device -- all it will result in is having to reconfigure it.
If I were home from work already I would give it a shot myself to try and help confirm if that works or if it was just the coincidence of a life time. Anyone else still waiting for the update that could give this a go?
i havent gotten it either. in NY. im not gonna try any methods. When it comes, it comes.

very tempted to try this but would hate having to reconfigure my screens and download all my app and game data again, hopefully it'll pop up tonight
Sent from my Xoom using XDA Premium App
I'm almost positive this won't work.
Here's why:
Doing a factory reset in no way comminicates with Google's servers and forces your Xoom on the current update list.
But this is just my educated guess.

Worked for me. Was setting up xoom with gmail account and said update available.

I wonder how many people have wiped their zooms in the last 45 minutes..
Anyone else have luck with this?
Been tempted to try this but I don't want to have to reload all my apps
Sent from my Xoom using XDA App
I have a XOOM that was restored to stock from Tiamat 1.4.1. If this worked, I would have gotten the update right after it was restored, because restoring to stock is essentially a factory reset.
However just to be sure I did a second factory reset 5 minutes ago and it did not work. No update unfortunately.
also tested this, was fully stock never rooted, just factory reset and no update for me either
Sent from my Xoom using XDA Premium App
Nope Didn't work for me either. Ohio
Didn't work here either. I did this yesterday when I cleaned up my xoom. Only updated to 3.0.1 -- Ohio as well.
I've heard that, if you sacrifice an iPad 2, at the stroke of midnight, on a full moon, while chanting the word Android backwards, you will get the update!
I don't know the reasons behind that, but it's worked for me, fantastic! Thank you.

New Android market

Hello,
For new Android market that is rolling out now, will we will get the new Android market even if our phones have been rooted and have custom ROM on it?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
I couldn't imagine them doing anything specific just to (I'm sure only momentarily) annoy people with rooted phones.
If your market works now I'd say there's a fairly good chance the new one will as well. Although I cannot confirm it.
Yes, the new one works. I use it since.yesterday on my dhd.

A restart and a bit patience sorted the problem.
Overall I like it. Would rather there was a my apps button on the front page but in not going to go on a murderous rampage because its missing.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA Premium App
From what I can see it is a very data hungry application as it can take a while to fire up when network connection is on the slow side.
i still havent got the update on my dhd.
so there are different release dates between different regions right?
Ye, Google did say the update (which will go on your phone auto, so no need to go to settings and update) will be with us all between now and up coming weeks.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
i hope the version that goes arround is not the final one cause beside being very laggy it is buggy. it broke a market link of an installed ap while trying to update it.
also even though it showed me one app being able to update it didn't allowed me to. clicking on it brought me to the apps details page and there i could only open or uninstall it.
i could onlly update apps if i had more than one by clicking update all.
p.s. oh and not to forgot: the amount of traffic it causes is extrem! a multiplactive of the old one, as if they would not cache the images of the apps showcase on the front page.

Agreed, same problem here, uninstalled the update. Don't like the new layout, hard to find things.
I have uninstalled the update and gone back to the last version. New one is almost unusable on anything other than a perfect cell connection.

Same here but i guess i'll keep it as it looks great,just a matter of few days to get habitual of it
when i click on download in new market it is starting to download for ages
when i reset phone it download the file immediately
Am I the only one, who thinks the new Metro-look (WP7 like ) is ugly?
I dont see any slowness. The only thing that bothers me is the updates. With the old one you could see the updates right away. With this one not so direct.

gentleman check your updaters .24 available in US now tf101

Its here just an fyi since it looked like it was going to be a few days out
So, what is a good location to upload the dlpkgfile?

Sorry guys.. triple posts.. blame the internet.. not me..

I just got mine updated to .24 as well. I checked the official ASUS development thread and it was reported to be a few days out, but I guess Google approved it, didn't enforce the quality check, or ASUS just went ahead and released it. Anyway, let's see how much of this firmware is a fix to the reboot problem.
One should do a cold boot after updating. See asus Facebook thread.
Got mine right now. And I was just about to root this thing. Hope it helps out.

I downloaded the .24 firmware and went to install and got halfway thru and got droid on his back with the yellow triangle.Rebooted and when i unlocked a window popped up and said DM CLIENT has stopped.I went to settings apps ,manage apps pressed all to show all apps went to DM CLIENT cleared data then forced close and rebooted.After reboot went to settings about tablet check updates and got the .24 firmware update and pressed to install and the update went in smooth as silk.Just posting this incase anyone has this problem. Mine might have come from that i waas rooted on .17 and went back to stock for .21 because ota rootkeeper didn't work and when i cleared that and installed stock .17 and updated to stock .21 ....so hope this helps someone
Hmm..of all the things people are experiencing, Gmail crashing is the one thing not happening to me at all (on any release).
I just got .24 update and surprised , now we have faceunlock thing , It works great , not perfect , I don't see any difference here but I hope they also fix rr and sod which makes me sick

Gmail has always been fine for me too. The only real issue I have had is the RR's and only in deep sleep. Until the last patch (.21), they were always clean. Since then any RR I have gotten has resulted in a boot loop or frozen at the Asus logo. If I run WakeLock, no RR's at all. So heres hoping .24 will fix the one issue. I will add .24 did not break my root either.....applied the patch, restored root, did a cold reboot, turned off WakeLock and all is well....so far.

Well, I was starting to look for methods because I'm sick of the reboots. I was on XDA looking for a method when all of a sudden, I saw the update. Will still look for a method since this update wasn't 4.0.4.
Oh and the gmail app has never crashed for me.

I have had Gmail crash, but its really intermittent and tends to come and go in ways I cannot explain. Sometimes any email I open will make the app freeze, but most of the time it works fine. So far, no Gmail crashes on .24 for me.... yet.

It's a hardware revision problem. Some people experience force closes in applications like GMail due to (I suspect) a memleak in the GPU driver. Lots are effected by it but don't notice it unless they do a lotta stuff in gmail. Others have no issue.

Hi guys, does this update fix the problem where you can't wake the TF101 with the keyboard dock's keypress (with the power saving feature disabled)? Since ICS was released up till the last update, this feature has been broken and it was working very well in HC but broken since ICS was out for the TF101 - is it working now (or has it been working before for anyone in ICS for TF101)?
