[HTC One S] th3ant:
Well all hell went down as my browser crashed when I finished the chat, and I have not received the transcript via email (still waiting though).

I do however remember the gist of it, just not word for word, so please do excuse me for this :/

They stated that the 4.0.4 update has already been released to automatic update servers. Depending on whether your phone is locked or branded with a certain network, times may vary. They did not mention anything about it varying from S4 to S3 models. The help representative also showed me how to check for update manually (Settings -> About Phone -> Software Updates -> Check Now) but of course this returned nothing. I did persist for a bit about the 4.0.4 update, but they started to get a bit annoyed so I decided to move on.

I then inquired about the 4.1 Jelly Bean update, but only got what looked like a copy/pasted response. I said that they have confirmed that the HTC One X, One XL and One S will be receiving the update. Seeing as I don't think other users have got this I did not persist with asking why.

To finish off I mentioned that all users I have seen on Android Development forums with S3 models have not been receiving the updates. Initially he stated that this was because they may be on branded/different networks or access different automatic update servers, However I replied with there are cases of people on the same network not getting the update due to having a different model. I then suggested he should take what I said and pass it on to a member with higher position in the company, but he returned by saying it was third party evidence which can not be accredited for accuracy.

At this point he seemed quite annoyed with me and I chose to leave before anything happened or he started to not answer my questions properly. Once again sorry for the lack of log, but if you believe me (this is the truth honest :)) I appreciate it.

If you found this useful please hit thanks!
[HTC One S] stylus1828:
"he seemed quite annoyed with me"??? WHAT??? He is there because is his job to give you answers to all your questions!!! ****ing ***hole!
[HTC One S] th3ant:
Well I was being rather persistent ;) I'd let them off this time :P
[HTC One S] omer7:
I already have JB in my phone, but i hate the t-mobile logo when switching on/off. I know changing cid wud be very difficult for me, i searched it, found some threads, but i guess it is only for s4 phones, not sure though.

But anyway is that link (above) for global phones? I think evn after installing that rom i ll still get updates from t-mob cz knstead of directly getting it from htc?
[HTC One S] :
Wait, I was writing to guys stuck on 4.0.3 how to get them on 4.0.4 and receive OTA for 4.1.1 JB. :) That's 4.0.4 ICS RUU.

You seem to already be on JB so this doesn't count for you.

One S C2 can't change CID on a way like "normal" One S can because it's write protected.
[HTC One S] omer7:
Oh okay. Yeah i m already on JB, but wanted to have some global rom instead of t-mob rom. Do u know any way (other than rooting and installing some custom rom) :P
[HTC One S] wvinch:
For those who are still stuck with fw 4.0.3, its actually very easy to upgrade to 4.0.4 using RUU from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2064422&page=2. Just make sure you have HTC SyncManager installed first, connect the phone, double-click on the RUU file, follow the steps and voila :), no risk at all. My CID is also 102 and I have done it, bare in mind though that you won't get JB 4.1 OTA yet(I checked continuously).

Frankly speaking, I suggest you all stop waiting and wasting our time with this company. Go for one of custom roms on this forum http://www.villec2.info/

Cheers:good:

When my post was written, there where speculations, that 4.2 will be called Lemon Pie :).

You should contact them again next week! :D That's persistent! :mad::p
[HTC One S] th3ant:
If you want I shall :D Unless answers are given..
[HTC One S] .TanTien:
Stylus you really should calm down a bit. I absolutely understand your annoyance but this will not help you at all. We can only hope that HTC doesn't want to lose their customers because they are getting rolled over by Samsung and other smartphone companies in selling counts. And a good support should be the first logical step for them to gain back customers.

Sent from my HTC One S using Trickdroid v3.0.0
[HTC One S] stylus1828:
Yeah... I know that but it's the only thing that I can do right now.

I'm really mad because I had only problems with my last two HTC phones and I'm mad that I was fooled by the looks of this phone. :mad:

I believe that we deserve real answers to our problem not all the bull**** they are trying to give us.
[HTC One S] .TanTien:
I absolutely understand how you feel. It's nearly the same with me (except it's my first HTC). But such companies will never say the truth because thy know that otherwise nobody would by their phones.
[HTC One S] mikness360:
guys guys I'm very upset with htc as you all do,but complaining isn't gonna do anything.

I just gave up on getting on getting a new phone because I chose this phone and I want to keep it,apart from not willing more money,that should be clear,so I think I will patiently wait for the next update.

The least we can do is not getting htc or minor phone brands anymore,that should serve them right.

Anyway,I read everywhere that the company lost 80% market worldwide,how in the world they could think of replacing one of their most powerful phones in a moment like this? obviously most people won't know that their phone was modified but thore who are aware can't get past this...

htc you won't get my money in the future,just know that :)
[HTC One S] qzem:
Those people for online support are delusional or obliged to tell as a lie:). Update for this model wasn't pushed yet. They just have to cover big company ass,and they are paid to do this. It is a big shame for htc that was selling different hardwares under same.phone. Even if you go on the official site there is only original one mentioned.
[HTC One S] mikness360:
Apart from all those things, I NEED UPDATEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
[HTC One S] farang4u:
I posted a review noting the lack of support for the S3 version. There's a lot I like about this phone, the hardware design, right sized screen (One X is too big), I even like sense. BUT having to buy a inferior version (no S4 in my area) and not to support it like the S4 version is a deal breaker for me. I'll be looking hard at the Motorola offerings for my next phone.
[HTC One S] kulam5421:
Good thing i exhausted all resources to get me an s4 version here in my country (Philippines) where One S users are really few, and most of them s3 users. Its not fair that the s3 updates are behind s4, especially noting the fact that HTC "shorthanded" them on the quick change of specs. just keep your cool,im sure you will get what you want sooner or later :)
[HTC One S] mistermanko:
One part of the ville c2 owners are forgotten here, the part which got branded s3 devices. With a branded one you can't unbrand, cause there is no way to change the CID. So we never can get any ota update if there is no dev who will work on that.
[HTC One S] mikness360:
A guy in another thread said that he got jellybean update o. O anyone who has stock can confirm? I have trickdroid I can't check
[HTC One S] celeran:
Got in Latvia
[HTC One S] lbrfabio:
I guess if the One S C2 is really having jelly before One X and One S, this thread should be deleted from the face of earth :D
[HTC One S] stylus1828:
Yeah right... JB. LOL :eek:

I guess we just had to open this thread and sent some bad reviews to htc and the update is here, or at least thats what some users are reporting :D. But they are reporting update to 4.0.4 Androdi and 4.1 Sense, and not to jellybean as somebody here is saying.Please somebody confirm this.
[HTC One S] qzem:
You really got JellyBean, that is Andorid 4.1? And not Andorid 4.0.4, with Sens 4.1. There is a big diference :)
[HTC One S] qzem:
There will be no need for this :). It looks like it is onl updet to 4.0.4 Android, and it took them two months to publish it after original HTC One S got it. And the fact that they recommend factory reset if we don't recevie the update, it is even worse. The point of official update is tha you don't loose your data on the phone at least it should be...
[HTC One S] stylus1828:
My friend has a one s ville c2 and he only checked for the update and the update was there! :)

No need to factory reset!

[HTC One S] mikness360:
No because if we stop we wont get jellybean lol seems complaining works so ill keep on doing it lolmao
[HTC One S] saculetz:
This is not necessarily a HTC issue as it is an issue with the direct seller of the phone, orange Romania in my case. The guy from the official orange shop knew sh*t about the phone he was selling and pointed me towards gsmarena.com to look for the specs. Of course, he didn't know there were 2 versions of the one s and of course he showed me the S4 model lool. In their brochures the HTC one s appeared with a 1.7 GHz CPU, but the idiot told me that the brochure was edited wrong and the phone had the 1.5 GHz CPU just like the one on gsmarena.com. seeing this, I bought it, of course, so I think the stunt was not exactly pulled by HTC, but also by the idiot/fraud official orange shop which "forgot" to mention the small issue of different CPU type.

P.S. There is NO jellybean update for the c2 and it is probably NOT going to be one for some time. The update is for 4.0.4 and sense 4.1. I update yesterday, so you can take my word for it. HTC probably think they shut our mouths with this update. I am not convinced about this :)
[HTC One S] mistermanko:
Do anyone know, if the latest ota came with a new radio?
[HTC One S] mikness360:
Bs anyway jellybean is gonna come out for phone too, it's pretty unlikely that htc will deprive Asia and Europe from updating, I think they know that would be a stupid move,that would make them lose customers

Perhaps it will take some time like it happened with 4.0.4 but will eventually come out

Htc while talking officially about one x + confirmed that jb is gonna be out this month so it wasn't delayed to december, anyone who reported that was wrong
[HTC One S] saculetz:
I think that there is no chance to receive JB anytime this month or even the next month. We just got 4.0.4 yesterday

Anyway, you made a good point. I don't think they can afford to screw us S3 buyers. Their Q3 financial results were not that good...
[HTC One S] .TanTien:
You never know. Maybe they are working on JB and just brought out the 4.0.4 update because everybody was complaining.
[HTC One S] mikness360:
be optimistic, guys, be optimistic

I'm sure it will come out

It`s ok that you`ve got the update beucase it is out from the end of December for your CID. (Taiwan HTC_621 is the only S3 that got the JB)

You`ve bought a phone made for Taiwan market that is why you`ve got the update and such few language options.
