oh yeah if your on 1.5 then you have to unroot/relock the device and then take the OTA, and go back and re-lock.

if your running stock i dunno if you can simply download the OTA while your unlocked and as long as you have the stock recovery loaded, let the phone update on its own. I know you can't flash radios yourself with the 1.5 hboot but maybe if you have the stock recovery and your still unlocked on bone stock rom the OTA will update fine without having to relock and then update...

If you have a custom Rom loaded you will have to factory wipe, relock, grab the update and let it install, then go back and unlock again.
[HTC EVO 3D] Chuki82:
If your hboot 1.5 the only reason to unroot and take the ota would be to update to the newest radio. Other then that wait till a stock rooted ROM is released or your favorite ROM dev updates his ROM.

I'm not positive but on hboot 1.5 I don't think you can flash new radios.
[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
no you can't "flash them" but i dunno if anyone with 1.5 running stock but also unlocked has tried to just take the OTA and see what happens then.

I am pretty excited to see ICS Sense after HTC will release it... I gues, there is no leaked pictures, right?
[HTC EVO 3D] KaoMinerva:
I'm very anxious to see this too dude! I love sense & also love some things about ICS but overall I want sense to be more noticeable! Well, all we can do is wait! Anyways, guys… What does the update fix?

I updated ...battery ****ed...
[HTC EVO 3D] ohbuckeyeman:
I updated as well. Seems that my battery takes a hit as well. I'm not sure if this is related to performance improvements or not. However, I ran through some different benchmarks because I wanted to see what the affect of removing CIQ would do (I am still stock!). My Quadrant went from 1900 to 2200. The one that surprised me the most was the Basemark ES Taiji 2.0 Free. I went from ~18 FPS to 27 FPS. Something tells me they did something to make the graphics much faster. New driver in the updated kernel? Perhaps this is the reason why battery is suffering?
[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
Interesting.....

No clue how that could help as it says it helps 3t data with offloading data to 4G and WiFi networks and such. No clue how that's possible with WiFi when 99% time if ppl could connect to WiFi they would, same with 4G too really so don't get the whole offloading concept here.

Guessing its more to do with how networkvision improvements at the towers are managed in the device....just a shot in the dark here.
[HTC EVO 3D] GrimReaper24:
New kernel also shuts lights off at the bottom of the screen nice unless its dark they will turn back on. New kernel will settle in battery is doing great.

Give TrevE time to dive into it as hes already done a lot with it in the short amount of time.

prob wont know for sure exactly what it does for least a day or so.
[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
nice find. Gave you your first Thanks there bud! lol
[HTC EVO 3D] Chuki82:
Sounds good in theory, seems like it gives the carrier control to turn on/off 3g/4g/wifi, in order to sideload some data.

I.e. someone stealing all the 3g bandwidth, sprint can turn on wifi and see if a wifi network is avail and get them off of 3g to free it up for other users.

At least thats what I gather from it, I could and am probably way off.
[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
so Smith owns Carrier IQ?? getting that from if CoreMobility was spun into 3 entities one being Carrier IQ, and then CoreMobility was bought by Smith....or did Smith buy Core and then it was spun off?

Also might wanna quote the profile of the line you have about core being split up. heres the link to it. http://www.seraphgroup.net/team/konstantin_othmer.html

So how do we flash this update if we have a custom recovery??? Is there one already repackaged or any other easy way other then scrubbing your phone back to when you bought it only to get it back to where you have it?
[HTC EVO 3D] jackzepplin:
Well crap, I went ahead and relocked, but now nothing will flash. I just keep getting looped to the Bootloader. I have to then power down and power back on and nothing has changed. I tried to do a factory reset, and it just powered down and booted back up into the bootloader again. If I thought I could get a custom ROM to load correctly, I'd probably try one, but I'm afraid I'll just keep getting thrown back into the bootloader. I'm gettin' too old for this. :-) >
[HTC EVO 3D] dit3:
I am glad to be on custom ROM right now... I think, that only importat update is comming, THE ICS update :D ... hope that HTC will not post some nonsese like it was with Desire :-D "delelopment" version of 2.3.4 lol
[HTC EVO 3D] GrimReaper24:
Since the ICQ got removed what is this new Smith thing that is under the all applications is it another tracking thing? Or what?
[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
If you relocked then you dont need to flash anything just take the OTA as normal people would. Though you should have the factory recovery on before you relocked, less during the relock process it does that anyway.
[HTC EVO 3D] GrimReaper24:
From the looks of it they track the amount of data u use. Then when your phone is sleeping smith disables your 3g to help keep the towers from getting overloaded. This also could be a way to throttle in the future maybe dunno about that. It's a way to keep folks from whoreing out a tower lol to give you better net speeds and so on.

Dunno about what else it may track but seems like a throttle control from there site.
[HTC EVO 3D] PanaFonic:
hmmm if they shut your 3G off then wont that make it harder for applications to get info from the servers
[HTC EVO 3D] tailsthecat3:
Lock it. Run this RUU, then you can unlock it again. Get the updates, flash recovery through fastboot, flash SU.
[HTC EVO 3D] jackzepplin:
I've always had the factory ROM (never flashed a new ROM after unlock), so all I should have had to do was relock, but after relocking and trying to install the update, my phone just pauses at the bootloader screen and won't install anything. It's the phone, not me. Right? :D
[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
when you relock and then show the OTA update on your phone thats how your updating right? not by putting a file on your SD card and trying to flash it?

your recovery should be the stock one too.
[HTC EVO 3D] jackzepplin:
Awesome!

That worked! Not only did it work, but it fixed the earlier issues that I had with being able to install the Revolutionary recovery. Where is your donate button? I owe you a beer!

Holy S#!$net...This new radio is fricken SMOKIN...In my living room I would have 2 out of 6 bars, ping 190-290 and have a Download speed of 500 - 750 kbs...now have same 2 bars with a ping of 190 and downloads ranging 1.9mbs to 2.2mps in the same chair i was in before. Worth every minute of relocking! Guessing that this new radio has the 800 Mhz active to run more like Verizons network. Will have to go to town tomorrow to see if there was improvement done to the 4G...:):):):)

Well the potential is there but its a bit eradick, anywhere from 350kbs - 1mbs a few minutes later ??? But there was that time...
[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
where are you located? you wont connect to 800MHz less NetworkVision is rolled in your area tower already. So that theory is unlikely there.

more likely that you were testing during a slow hour on the tower. I can get my speeds to vary here widely depending on the time of day.

Opinions of update

Hey everyone, I have a rooted 3d running a custom rom. It sounds like I have to relock and stock my phone to get this update? What other options, do I have to wait for my rom developer to incorporate this? Thanks in advance!
[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
if you have 1.5 HBoot youll have to relock to get the radios and other firmware updates regardless of when your Rom Dev updates their rom.
[HTC EVO 3D] tailsthecat3:
I've received all the updated software while unlocked. I unlocked from .2 software, got the updates, flashed recovery, flashed su.

Gotta have stock /system
[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
this is what I thought would be the case. long as you had stock recovery and stock ROM then itd make sense it would work finr and update normally. Think the main reason ppl say to lock is b/c they all are coming from custom roms and have custom recovery installed in which case wont allow the update to take.

Good to know though btw!
[HTC EVO 3D] tailsthecat3:
Yeah, also recovery. Thanks.

Can someone point me to a description on how to use that file without bricking your phone? Google is not my friend in this case.
[HTC EVO 3D] FrakMe:
the update won't run if the recovery on the phone isn't the stock recovery.

re-locking the phone allows you to run the ruu, which puts the stock recovery back, which allows you to run the update.

once the update is complete, you can unlock the phone, flash twrp, flash su, and you are good to go
[HTC EVO 3D] youbecha:
I feel very noobish...

I did the official HTC unlock, then rooted it...I don't remember installing any other recovery on it...

Was TWRP part of the HTC unlock? or did I install it later...can I just uninstall it?

Did the HTC unlock remove the stock recovery?

I never loaded a custom rom...just unlocked it and rooted it.

I just used clockwork mod recovery to flash kernel with radio then right after flashed ota ROM rebooted and was fully updated with root. Tried it with twrp 2.0 recovery was unstable. Also tried using flash GUI app for kernel then flashed ota ROM using twrp but also was unstable. I think you could use flash gui app then clockwork recovery to flash the rom but since I already did it I don't need to try it.

I'm using Dolphin Browser HD and with the User Agent set to "Android", many websites still default to using the desktop browser.

One of these is ING Direct (banking website), of which the desktop website is frustrating to use on a tablet.

Is there any way to force it to mobile view? There seems to be no mobile URL, which is why I'm asking. This also happens with several other websites, but ING Direct is the main one that frustrates me.

The ironic part is that switching the user agent to iPhone seems to force mobile websites fine. But then other websites break, like YouTube links go to the iPhone mobile website, instead of launching the Android app etc... :mad:

Why does the User Agent Android not work properly? Is there a way to force it to act like an Android phone?

There is an option under setting in HTC default browser to set to Mobile View. Check that and you are good to go.

How will a setting in HTC's default browser transfer over to Dolphin?

(And the reason I know it is an Evo View-specific issue rather than a Dolphin browser issue, is because these issues don't occur on my phone when using the same Dolphin app.)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] AidenM:
I'm not sure but maybe it alters a system file not just the browser setting.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Paul22000:
Unfortunately it does not work.

After marking Mobile View in the "Internet" app, Dolphin still brings up desktop web sites, even though Dolphin is set to "Android" user agent.

How is no one else having issues with this? :confused:
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kardain:
Tried it on my flyer... Android user agent didn't load it, but iPhone did. It seems that dolphin HD has a slightly different user agent than Mini, which does redirect when using android as the user agent.

HD: 4.0 Safari

Mini: 4.0 Mobile Safari

Adding Mobile to the default user agent string for Android causes ING to redirect.

The problem in this case is on ING's side. Their server is looking for the word mobile in the user agent to force the redirect.

Try this as a custom user agent and see if it works with your other problem sites:

Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; U; Android 3.2.1; en-us; HTC Flyer P510e Build/HTK75C) AppleWebKit/534.13 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 Mobile Safari/534.13

On edit: using a custom user agent with just the word mobile also redirected to the ING mobile site on HD

You actually inspired me to email them about one of my pet peeves / feature requests: the option to keep tabs up all the time, even when scrolling down the page! For a tablet, this would be amazing, for fast tab switching, rather than having to hit menu to bring up all the tabs every time.
