[HTC One S] :
i prefer to wait on a custom rom--

but, i think the recovery is gone

try, i believe, second dl here and fastboot it

http://www.modaco.com/topic/353006-...ch-recovery-for-the-htc-one-s-stock-download/
[HTC One S] sp9nki:
Thanks. Now I get Red Exclamation Mark every time I try to boot recovery. Tried to install several times, but nothing changed.
[HTC One S] :
did you get the one named

ville_recovery_signed.img

ck md5

and fastboot it--I used same one

i forget what stock recovery screen looks like--thought triangle with exclamation inside, if that's it i think you have to hold down some buttons to boot into it

otherwise, press vol- and pwr, release just pwr after screen goes black--get into fastboot and fastboot twrp or cwm again

gotta head out
[HTC One S] sp9nki:
checked MD5, its correct.

also correct img. Tried to flash it with One in All Tool, do i have to do it manually?

Batterylife about 1week. With 40hour screentime

The update is out 1day, nobody can judge the batterylife by now.
[HTC One S] unknown89:
When i download a update it restarts my phone begins to installs the software and 1/4 of way on the progress bar its stop and gives me a red triangle with a '!' and mobile behind it and stops. What gives?

I am using a stock rom, i used the rootkeeper also.
[HTC One S] sp9nki:
Stock Recovery Works now at my device, but i got another problem. Does the update check if I have installed all system apps? when i start the update it fails, the device goes into recovery and outputs something with the 7Digital app which i removed earlier
[HTC One S] superiscch:
I've installed the stock recovery, but still no updates found?

I have the 4.0.4 RUU update installed...
[HTC One S] k1llacanon:
So with this method if I'm on 1.78 I don't need to update phone via the HTC thing and can just run thia?
[HTC One S] Pecors:
if i have the version 2.21 i can't install the update 2.31?
[HTC One S] :
sorry, had some family stuff to do

assume you fastbooted it--glad you got it

have no advice on ota--never do them--too much hassle--i wait for custom roms
[HTC One S] ovaal:
I'm lost

The same thing here :crying: I unrooted, unlocked, and installed the stock recovery, and lost all my data on the way, and now it stops with a big red triangle and exclamation mark after 30 secs.....

I thought I was pretty smart with regards to updating, rooting, etc. But now I'm lost. My Desire, my ZTE Blade, my EKEN tablet and my AOSON M11 gave me headaches, but never to this extend.
[HTC One S] AleksGj:
Hello i have read a few things here but nothing seems to help me. I had a rooted One S with stock rom on it (no branding or anything just rooted). Therefore i ofc unlocked my bootloader. Since i really wanted the updated, i did the very first thing that came up on this thread (relock bootloader bs). Well did not help at all. So i read you need to unroot n stuff. Well long story shot :

I have installed that stock rom recovery posted earlier in this thread (can't post links it was the post form rugmankc)

Bootloader is locked

No other **** on the phone or anything.

I can find the update and start installing it when in the mid the good old red triangle with the ! in it appears and it restarts after a while without updating it. So can anyone just give me an short instruction (link to a stock rom to flash or whatever?) what to do to f***king pass this update so i can finnaly live without the 3 dot menu button.

Thanks in advance

Aleks
[HTC One S] bobsie41:
The 3 dot menu can be remove with the earliar 4.04 update (2.21.401.10) for which there is an RUU available http://www.filefactory.com/f/cf061f69b5bf7878/. If you firmware has the x.xx.401.xx number within it, you can relock your bootloader and run this RUU.

So if I understand correct I have to flash 1.78 back to get de 2.23 version in stead of the 2.21??

Because I flashed the stock recovery but still no updates found...
[HTC One S] Lebo-Wog:
i'm also on stock 2.21 relocked stock recovery, how do i get to 2.31 ?
[HTC One S] Pecors:
If you have the version 2.21 it's not possible to update to 2.31 until is released the ruu 2.31
[HTC One S] Lebo-Wog:
ok thanks, and how long do i have to wait for that ? week, 2 weeks, a months ?

and how do i install that 'officially' ?
[HTC One S] will1987:
If you haven't been offered the update, you will probably have to change your CID which requires root access.
[HTC One S] pirlano:
this is NOT true.

I flashed 2.21 RUU with SuperCID (11111111) (my brand was Vodafone) 2 weeks ago.

HTC Dev Unlock -> Custom Recovery -> Root (flash Chainfire SuperSU) -> Than i changed my CID (with mmcblk04p modding) to HTC__Y13 (sweden no brand i think) -> Factory reset -> oem lock phone again -> re-run 2.21 RUU -> now it will find the OTA

The only problem is HTC__Y13 supports very few languages. So i did again:

HTC Dev Unlock -> Custom Recovery -> Root -> Than i changed my CID to HTC__405 (Italian no brand, because i'm Italian, HTC__001 should support more languages) -> Factory reset, aaaaaaaaaaaand upgrade 2.21 to 2.31 with Italian Language :D

If you want stock rom just stay with HTC__Y13 (english, sweden, and finnish Language i think) :) If you want other languages you have to root and change CID :)
[HTC One S] light_n_roses:
I'm also on 2.21 Italian official amd I cannot updated to 2.31, I think that without unlocking the device the only solution is waiting for the RUU. Honestly I don't want to unlock my phone with htcdev because of possible warranty problems...I hope that a custom unlock will eventually see the day of the light.

Regarding updated 2.31 I have 2 questions for the one of you that already have it:

1) how is the multitasking situation, app are still closed once that you switch to another one?

2) they have put quicklinks on the taskbar?? Honestly I hope not because I like it more the actual situation. The time needed to enter the setting menu right is so short that I don't see any need in having a weight taskbar full of icon.
[HTC One S] Dj!pOner:
You have flashed OTA 2.31 before or after CID modification (HTC__405)

Thanks
[HTC One S] theguitarman94:
Well you're extremely lucky. I'm in the Uk and with super cid 11111111 I couldn't find the ota then when I was on HTC_Y13 I still couldn't find it. Don't know why that is
[HTC One S] moob0:
Try this: ftp://46.4.232.94/opendir/OTA_Ville...10_release_275774cltf0sxl730g7fp1(Modded).zip

mirror: http://www.mediafire.com/?18v9pnuzv6z47y4

flash by recovery.

it's modded by me, i deleted the string of check of CID in updater-script because not let me flash despite being among the cid supported. Works fine for me with HTC__405.

REQUIRED: unlocked bootloader and cwm/twrp recovery

sorry for my english
[HTC One S] theguitarman94:
I may try in a minute thank you. I've changed my cid to HTC_405 and it won't find the update I find it so odd how some people can find it.
[HTC One S] Pecors:
I try it and it seems to work
[HTC One S] neeverr:
I'm trying to install the mod_file using the 2.21 stock recovery... unluckily the recovery does not work anymore.

E:can't open /cache/recovery/command
[HTC One S] moob0:
it work only with unlocked device and custom recovery
[HTC One S] franck2k5:
Didn't read all the answers, but I used HTC one s all in one toolkit to flash the stock recovery.

Then I installed the update normally, without having to do a factory reset.

Then I used modaco super boot to re root the phone, and reinstalled CWM recovery using ROM manager.

Hope this helps
[HTC One S] neeverr:
ok done with the custom recovery

I notice that only sense has been updated (4.0 to 4.1) all the other stuff is still on 2.21 (eg.: radio...).

I only was able to manually flash the updated kernel (boot.img)... the radio fails the security match... probably because in all these step i'm still supercid (1111111)

ciao
[HTC One S] cyriantherockstar:
i changed my cid to HTC__Y13, factory restored, then relocked..but when i try to run the stock 2.21 ruu, it wouldn't continue! it says error with model id! help pls!
[HTC One S] theguitarman94:
Alright mate, that happened to me before. It's because you're using the wrong cid for that RUU. HTC__001, HTC__405 and super cid 11111111 all run that ruu fine.
[HTC One S] alexskin:
did every thing butt no OTA update,i'm one HTC__001 CID, re-runed the ruu 2.21 twice butt no luck
[HTC One S] theguitarman94:
wait for the ruu :) It must be something to do with location more than cid when it comes to the update because no one in the uk can get it so your location might not be able to get it yet.
[HTC One S] boulek:
Guys,i have a stock unrooted One S...It s number is 1.78.771.5..

How can i do the updte??
[HTC One S] MattDN93:
Are you with a carrier (Vodaphone etc) or is your device unbranded? If with a carrier, you'll have to wait OR root. If not, wait for the OTA to roll out!
[HTC One S] boulek:
My phone is branded but i use another carrier..It is from 3 UK but i use it in another carrier another country..
[HTC One S] MattDN93:
Well the SIM carrier (3UK) is irrelevant (I bought my One S in Holland but am using Vodacom ZA now) but the actual phone branding matters (Mine was Euro unbranded). Contact the carrier that branded the phone for info I guess, otherwise you're gonna have to unlock your bootloader with HTCDev, obtain root permissions, and flash an unbranded (WWE) Rom Update Utility. Also you'll need to use SuperCID to tell HTC servers your device is unbranded. This may likely allow you to receive OTA updates regardless of location.

HTC__Y13 is needed to find official OTA, be sure to relock after CID change, rerun 2.21 ruu and factory reset!!! Than after you flash 2.31 OTA, you can unlock, root, change to CID again for more languages (be sure to factory reset again)
[HTC One S] theguitarman94:
He's got to be careful though because don't forget it's not working for everyone and for what i've seen it's actually not working for more people than it is working. It's more than just CID. I think the update gets pushed out to locations and the phone checks your ip or if you check with 3g it's easy to tell where you are located. You will lose all your settings and apps so it's not worth it unless you are positive that it will find the update which you can never be 100 percent.
[HTC One S] pirlano:
I think that people cannot find the OTA with HTC__Y13 because of non stock ROM and stock recovery (really important), or because they didn't factory reset after CID change...
[HTC One S] sirio87s:
hi. i'm italian too. now i relock bootloade, flashed the ruu 2.21, re-unlocked bootloader e rooted my phone. than i change my cid to htc_405. i attempt the update but for now there isn't nothing... it's correct, or not?
[HTC One S] MattDN93:
I received all OTAs with the CID HTC__E11 I think, that's European Unbranded, that should work. Some forums suggest that flashing the 2.21 RUU won't allow you to get the 2.31 update at all. In my case I went directly from 1.78 to 2.31 via OTA
[HTC One S] kaiser347:
This OTA not only CID, but MID dependable as well. this OTA is for PJ4010000 MID phones, I have PJ401100 T-mobile US branded HOS. No way to change MID without s-off. I had run RUU 2.21 with super CID without any problems. I tried to get OTA with couple different CIDs, but no luck. Even forced the update in both recoveries, but got model ID error. So I managed to edit 2.31 OTA update-script for PJ401100, I did update in TWRP everything but baseband. The MID is not letting me to update radio not in recovery nor in fastboot. I just have to wait for official RUU.

Flashed 2.31 boot in 2.21 so far so good.
[HTC One S] cyriantherockstar:
any difference in performance/battery with the 2.31 boot?
[HTC One S] pirlano:
NO! Change CID to HTC__Y13. Relock bootloader. Rerun 2.21 RUU. Factory reset. Official 2.31 OTA!

If you want Italian language, change CID to HTC__405 AFTER OTA update and factory reset again

Question - do I have to UNROOT my phone to install OTA?

Or I will just loose the root in the process?

I have installed stock recovery, locked bootloader (which was unnecessary), and when installing the update - stops at some point with red triangle with ! inside it. (Same as people before).

Anyone have any solution for this without loosing my data (no fact. reset/installing other rom).

Need you!

I am looking for someone who can provide me the Camera.apk from the latest 2.31 base.

All you need to do is to be rooted and have root explorer installed. Copy the folder of /system/app and push it to your sdcard and upload it.

Or you use adb pull /system/app

You can also just make a nandroid and upload it.

I would appreciate it if someone could do one of these things

Finally updated!!!!

I finally found out what was (probably) wrong :victory:

Every attempt failed with a big red triangle wit an exclamation mark, rooted, unrooted, locked, unlocked......

The answer for me was the "Dual_Core_Mod_Ultimate_v2.1" I had installed. I replaced it with "Dual_Core_Mod_Back_to_Stock_v2.1", flashed the stock recovery and tried it one last time. And this time it worked!!! The update slowed down after 30 secs and I was about to yell :o at my phone, but then it kept on going :)

The phone was still rooted and the the bootloader unlocked, so there is no reason (as stated by maxupp on the first page) to completely go back to the factory settings before updating!

Maybe this can help some of you.

I stopped using bluetooth tethering because it would autodisconnect whenever a wifi signal was around and then doesnt reconnect. As for wifi it will stay connected and maintain positive connection longer.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aa_chow:
I leave the Bluetooth Tethering option ticked on my Galaxy Nexus and connect with my Nexus 7 (via Settings > Bluetooth > tap on Galaxy Nexus) when I need to (or just place a shortcut on your homescreen).

The problem is that Bluetooth Tethering cuts out after a few minutes (known bug) and I have to repeat. But since it cuts out, it doesn't drain the battery at all (unless I am actively using the data connection, of course).
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hawleyncsu:
I suggest using foxfii and PDAtablet for Bluetooth tethering. A few apps won't recognize the internet, however you don't have to worry about it cutting out. And it still uses Bluetooth so there is less battery drain than WiFi.

Just always remember while Bluetooth tethering with whichever option to turn OFF your WiFi on the tablet. If not it will keep searching for WiFi even though your BT tethered, and cause data drop.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JeepFreak:
You could probably use Tasker to kick WiFi Tethering on on your phone when it detects your tablet neaby (via bluetooth), so when you want to connect, you turn wifi and bluetooth on on the tablet.

EDIT: Of course, you can also use Tasker to turn WiFi Tether on on your phone based on your location, the absense of your work/home wifi, the time of day, and many other options or combinations of options. It's a really useful app, IMO.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chinpokomon:
I'm trying a slightly different scenario. I don't want Bluetooth tethering, I want WiFi tethering but with Bluetooth connected so I can use Tablet Talk. It almost works. For a short while it'll work that way and then the WiFi drops on my Galaxy Nexus and won't reconnect until I disconnect BT again. :(

I'm probably posting this in the wrong forum since I've since determined the problem is with my GNex and not my N7.

I'm curious as to how people are using BT tethering though. In my experience there are too many applications that don't work over the BT tether. Are those of you tethering over BT just using the browser? Seems far more limiting than using WiFi tether... unless of course I'm also trying to connect over BT at the same time.

Is basic Bluetooth tethering simply pairing the phone and tablet and that's it (no third party apps)?
