It'll be released exactly 2 weeks after Vodafone branded. These Vodafone exclusivity arrangements (bribes) need to stop. Really blatant this time with the euro release.

[HTC Sensation] vincepg13:
Well in on 2.3.4 custom ROM, but I got a nandroid of stock Rom...providing the update is available in the UK I can restore stock and try. And erm that new stuff won't brick or anything because of s.off right?

[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
How the hell do you incorporate the OTA into a ROM?!?!?
[HTC Sensation] chrisw99:
So, I'm on stock 1.35.401.1 , with Clockworkmod recovery, so I can't do the OTA

Can I put the OTA_Pyramid_HTC_Europe_1.45.401.2 zip posted earlier onto the SDCARD, and then select "apply update from sdcard" within clockwork recovery?
[HTC Sensation] LeeDroid:
not an easy task dude, we need someone to apply it, verify they still have S-Off and then get them to make a nandroid backup of the system.img, these patches are a pain, keeps failing on mine

Hi All,

Well this was my conversation with HTC Support

You have been connected to *****: Thank you for your patience, I'm sorry for the delay. I am looking into your query now.

Knightz: Hi *****, Please can you confirm to me when the OTA 2.3.4 security update will be available to the unbranded HTC Sensation handsets in the UK?

*****: We have no ETA on when the update will be released in the UK or Ireland as there are tweaks we need to make to the update before it can be released

Knightz: I see, but as far as I'm aware it already has been released to the Vodafone UK users as my girlfriend is one of them, so I'm not sure what you are saying do you mean there will be a tweeked version for unbranded uk handsets?

*****: Yes as there is no branded apps or branding on the device we add a littl extra tot he updates

Knightz: Ok, will that not be the same as the other country unbranded update?

*****: Yes the unbranded update will remain the same through out all countrys

Knightz: thanks, this brings me back to my original question why do we not have an eta when most of europe has already been released with the same required update? thanks

Thank you for contacting us. To allow HTC to continue to improve our service can I ask that you complete a very short satisfaction survey by clicking ............. Strange how it all ended lol :confused:

No update in india yet....
[HTC Sensation] vincepg13:
I need someone to do me a favour. I need someone with a completely stock phone (no soff or root) who accepted and applied the 2.3.4 ota to see if you also get the graphics problem in games. You can do this by downloading and playing the game cordy
[HTC Sensation] Scrupix:
Thanks but I don't have a rooted Sensation and I also don't want to root him, I was wondering if the official update was released or if somebody knows anything regarding the update for Singapore of when it will be available ;)
[HTC Sensation] animaleyes76:
stock 2.3.4 no root no soff and the graphics get fcuked up when you start playing, my phone even reboots after a couple of minutes
[HTC Sensation] vincepg13:
Dam HTC really did **** the **** up. Alright I suggest we keep reporting this to them until they do something
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
I'd also email the Dev in case it's something they need to address
[HTC Sensation] freezor:
If you read what HTC has told us... this update is only to prepare the phone for s-off.

To really get your phone s-off you have to go to there development website and follow the steps posted there.

As of now s-off only works for european phones with the newest OTA update on them. Other phones will follow in the next weeks or so.
[HTC Sensation] animaleyes76:
This isn't true though. The update included many bug fixes and a few new features.

I downloaded cordy from the market (version 1.5.1) and the change log said that there had been some recent fixes for the sensation and evo so who knows
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
Chances are the fixes were for 2.3.3, they might need to do more for 2.3.4
[HTC Sensation] animaleyes76:
Just emailed them.:)

[HTC Sensation] piratashitzu:
Me, downloaded the upgrade by HTC Upgrade. But now i 'm scared to install because this issues and complains reported in last posts. Maybe i have to wait a little more.

T-Mobile unlocked

Brazil - Rio de Janeiro
[HTC Sensation] rockerode:
Really? I'm not getting any new bugs. And I'm not certain yet, but has the update been uploaded onto the forums? If not, I'll post it. I'm yet to delete the file. In any case, the homescreen and menus are

SOOOO MUCH SMOOTHER.

. I cannot believe the difference. It all just feels so fluid now. There are a few jerks here and there, but dear lord they really polished it over. It feels like it's GPU accelerated now.

Other changes include the addition of HTC Likes application and Quick Lookup. HTC Likes is like their own app store (which I don't understand why...) and quick lookup is just an alternative to Google Search. It's kinda a bit more expanded and better.
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
Upload the OTA for others wanting it now (although you need S-OFF to flash it in the stock recovery)
[HTC Sensation] piratashitzu:
you are right. And by the way i'm so curious to wait too long.

Thanks in advance!
[HTC Sensation] abachhan75:
I got it too before half an hour. So far so good. Play more later.
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
Well, yeah as it's the unbranded update. You do need to be S-OFF to flash it though, the stock recovery won't flash a file for some reason if you're S-ON
[HTC Sensation] charmz2k2:
Hmm... I got an error - Status 7 :(
[HTC Sensation] piratashitzu:
Updated to version 1.45.531.1

screen seems to be more colourful or bright, sense is ok;

everything running great........so far.

keep you informed
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
You S-ON? IF so, you need S-OFF for some bizarre reason to flash it

Was your phone unbranded out the box or a Vodafone version? If Vodafone, you may need to change your CID to HTC__001 (if not done already)
[HTC Sensation] jay661972:
Got my update right now.
[HTC Sensation] vincepg13:
I'm pretty sure it won't work but can you download & try to play the game cordy?
[HTC Sensation] charmz2k2:
Cheers for the support Eddy!

Nope, I'm S-OFF through Revolutionary

Was Vodafone, but debranded to 401 by flashing the europe rom.

Changed the CID to HTC__001, and confirmed by checking it as well..

As far as I can see, I've done everything right, but still no go :(

Only thing I'm thinking is that you said stock recovery whereas I'm using cwm, should I re-install stock?
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
Yeah that's why, needs stock recovery. Are you running a rooted ROM? If so, do NOT apply this update
[HTC Sensation] charmz2k2:
ahh!!

Right then, I won't apply it for now then..

Do you think if the OTA is released in the UK it will be installable on a rooted phone? or should I just re-flash 1.35 and then upgrade and root?

I'm just wondering why it's taking so long... the european update released earlier was before Vodafone branded and now it's the other way round :s
[HTC Sensation] jay661972:
now my phone stock with the triangle, android thing. wont do anything. im on stock rom, just rooted and s-off.
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
Just flash a custom ROM based on 1.45, easier that way!

It's been suggested that as Vodafone had the exclusive on the Sensation over here they get the update first...could be wrong, though
[HTC Sensation] kjt57:
Has anyone with a branded 3 nework Sensation received this yet?

HTC told me it would be released to branded phones.....
[HTC Sensation] nicky041192:
I'm hoping that's not the case. It's not been confirmed. But I have the feeling it's true.
[HTC Sensation] Toysrusie:
Sorry if this is a dumb question.

I've a Vodafone branded phone. S-Off, courtesy of Revolutionary + Root'd.

It's still running stock ROM as all I wanted to do was try Chainfire + some other Root apps.

Now I'm thinking that I'd rather return fully to Stock as I've no complaints with Sense etc

I would have thought that all I need to do is install the RUU from here and I'd be back to stock Vodafone Sensation. However, the [Guide] to Installing S-off, ClockWork, Root, SuperCID & S-on [03/AUG/11](noobproof) indicates that I need to be installing ADB and setting SuperCID etc. Surely that's only necessary, if I changed it in the first place?

Or to put it another way won't running the RUU that matches my phone's carrier set everything back to factory defaults?
[HTC Sensation] e-wrecked:
Just noticed via google news that the update is being rolled out. I manually checked for updates via system info and there it was..ready to be downloaded.

Installed the update and so far everything seems very smoothe. The web browser now uses green in the HTTP bar while loading a page. The screen carousels easier. Less lag. Thanks t-mobile for the update. :)

my impression about the update so far

1) wifi connectivity is better, range is also better,

2) screen capture worked

3) i will observe battery life, that is my main gripe about sensation. if it improves so it last me till evening, i will be happy.

4) i have not experienced any speed improvement so far, but was using go launcher ex anyway before.

My phone was rooted stock TMOUS 2.3.3 ROM, CWM recovery, S-OFF ENG bootloader from revolutionary.io. Here's how I updated (from Linux). You need adb and fastboot working. Maybe this will help someone.

(I don't have enough posts to put this in the dev section)

From Rom Manager, I backed up my current ROM, then copied it to my computer for safe keeping.

Batch backup in TitaniumBackup.

Download [ROM][STOCK] TMO_US_1.45.531.1 + root + busybox from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1226085 (thank you birgertime!) and copied to my phone's sdcard.

sync, unmount the phone

(phone is running and connected to USB)

$ adb reboot recovery

(now in CWM)

wipe cache

wipe Dalvik cache

install ROM from sdcard (pick ROM zip from above)

wipe cache

wipe Dalvik cache

fix permissions

reboot

Linux box:

download the 2.3.4 OTA update from http://fotadl.htc.com/OTA_Pyramid_TMOUS_1.45.531.1-1.29.531.2_P_release_208884g0xcvwhujbb41c3b.zip

What I didn't flash: boot.img, pg2fs_spcustom.img, recovery.img, sbl1.img, sbl2.img, tz.img. I have no idea what pg2fs_spcustom.img, sbl1.img, sbl2.img, and tz.img are and didn't have enough balls to flash them. If you've successfully done it, please let me know.

I'm a bit confused. :(

I'm currently running stock with 2.3.3 with S-ON. I'm pretty certain that either I won't be getting the OTA update from my network, or it will be a while until they release it.

Should I S-OFF, then flash the OTA ROM somewhere in this thread, then S-OFF again (assuming that flashing the rom made it S-ON?)? or am i going about this completely wrong?
