[HTC Wildfire S] mhrsolanki2020:
Hey there folks,

there are many people who wants to update their phone but they cant cuz they have rooted their device n have edited their /system(ie your ROM) folder.. (untill yesterday i was the same :P, but then i used my mind n did this :P)

So when you get an update ,(or when you feel you might have got an update , go to settings->about phone->software update n select check now)

download it

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------​

(this comes only when the battery is less than 35% :P i purposely kept it low so that we can get here.. )the people who dont want to wait till their battery would be less than 35% they can scroll to the end of the post n there is the way to copy the OTA zip file.. and then come back here later)

select install later

n then with your file explorer in the phone go to

sdcard/download/

here you will find your update (for eg OTA_Marvel_S_hTC_Asia_India_2.26.720.3-2.13.720.1_release_263152eqrdpruolqm8nq6i.zip)

now copy this to some other folder in memory card and then from that folder copy to your computer by mounting your sdcard(ie using disk drive mode)..

i copied it in the sdcard directly (ie root of sdcard)

now open the zip file ,

then go to /META-INF/com/google/android/

now here you will see a file named updater-script

now to open this file you can open it in notepad. but then when you edit the file in notepadd it will ruin everything..

so it is advisable (or meaningfull )to do it with a better notepadd..

so go here n download notepadd++

http://notepad-plus-plus.org/download/

n install it..

now open that updater-script in notepadd++

now you will see that there is this code so long..

dont worry you dont have to read it all :P

now here you can see the words assert

now this is the thing that is gonna check your system n all .. what you have to do is ..

select all the the assert statements n delete them.. for refrence i have attached my updater script(the one i am showing , donot replace this one with the one in your zip file (as not all updates are same . ))

my updater-script(if the link is not working plz pm me.)

in this script the assert statements are from line number 5 to line number 541.

delete them all ....

now save that file. (put it in your zip again if you extracted it n then edited)

n now paste it again on your cell phone ..

n now reboot to recovery ...

select install zip from sd card

n then choose zip from sd card.

n then select the zip you just edited(the one which you pasted in to sd card ffrom pc .. n not the one that is in the download folder)

n then select yes n the let it do its work.. when it is flashed..

select reboot now..

if it asks you that root might be lost n all just select no n continue(cuz there is still something to be flashed after the update (it may posiibly not there in all the updates but it is there mostly ,the image file firmware.zip .. )

it will take a lil time to flash this (if it dont flash nything after recovery dont worry :P it wont be there in your update.

CONGRATS>>~!@!!!!!

you have sucessfully updated your rooted device OTA

(if you lost root access ,, then root your device again..)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------​

For those who dont have their battery low that 35%

start downloading the file..

when it starts ,, like when the download is on 2% or 3 %

open your file explorer,

go to /sdcard/download/

n here you will find the ota zip

now copy it..

(do not paste just copy it so the link /sdcard/download/otablahblahblah is copied to your clip board)

now browse to some other folder (when it asks where do you want to paste)

now stay there

n keep a look on your status barr.. as soon as the download is reached to 97% or 98%

be ready to paste it.... when it tells download complete..

quickly paste it in to some other folder(as you have copied earlier you just have to select the paste option )

n then you can now mount your sd card n do the rest of the thing .. (scrooll up again :D )
