One X,... One X+,... One XL haven't received an update, have it? So propably One XL will be next, then us. Anyone has stock ROM and can check for any updates? I'm too lazy to flash stock for mine. :P
[HTC One SV] Petert87:
One X and X+ are updating at the moment, but thats a slow process.
[HTC One SV] artlov:
I have and constantly checking for an update ;)
[HTC One SV] Bazdir:
Yea, I know. That was some kind of counting there. :D

That's what I've found today on Football's Tweeter. So... I think we can sleep calm, although we still don't know, when the update will come.
[HTC One SV] TVTV:
Spoke to HTC Romania, on the phone, yesterday, and no dice. They don't have an ETA nor a firm answer about the certainty of the SV being updated to 4.2 and Sense 5. All i could get out of them was the classic "we don't have any news regarding such an update, please be patient until mid-september when HTC will make an official statement", bla-bla. One of the employees, though, said he also owned a One SV and that he was hoping we get the update, too. Maybe it was a hint, i dunno.
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
You are sure, you use the latest twrp recovery?
[HTC One SV] Smellie2:
Yes, I used 2.6.3.2 from this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2280241&highlight=twrp&page=5
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
Then maybe try to enable adb on another computer or download latest htc sync for the newest drivers.
[HTC One SV] Smellie2:
I don't have another computer and I already tried the newest drivers from htc sync.

I was thinking that I have two options now:

1) install superSU ?without recovery. Is that possible So I can use the apps which require root.

2) start over from ICS and update once. Then try to flash recovery, see if that works. And then decide wether to update to 422 or not.

One thing that puzzles me though, is when I first updated from ICS (the day before yesterday), I had to unlock my bootloader again. The next time I did that I stayed unlocked. Why is that?
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
I don't know, why. You are unlocked now, right?

But i would also keep in mind, the way, Modding.MyMind told you. Basicly it should work.
[HTC One SV] :
You should had never needed to unlock your bootloader to update your device. There is nothing that would result in someone needing to jump over to HTCDEV before they can continue with their OTA. Its unheard of and unethical. HTC wouldn't even support such a method lol. Only way this would have been a requirement is if you were picking up a JB from someone else whether it be a backup, Rom, etc.

---------- Post added at 09:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:57 AM ----------

And download the custom recovery again. The one that you have may be corrupted. Make the zip as I explained earlier and insure that the img inside of the zip is renamed to recovery.img.
[HTC One SV] Smellie2:
I was unlocked and rooted before the update. After the first time I updated I was locked again. So I unlocked to gain my root back, and then the problems started.....

Maybe it's an idea to relock and then start over from ICS stock rom, install the two updates and then unlock and get rooted?
[HTC One SV] :
From the sounds of your situation that may be best. Start from scratch with ICS, jump up to JB 4.1.2, then JB 4.2.2, unlock (if needed-though being S-Off shouldn't need to lock (rare cases though)), root, downgrade HBoot from 2.21 to 2.0, flash TWRP, voila, happy hunting :)
[HTC One SV] Smellie2:
Why do I have to downgrade my hboot to 2.20? If that solves my problem couldn't I do that now?
[HTC One SV] :
4.2.2 comes with a new HBoot. 4.1.2 come with HBoot 2.0 and 4.2.2 comes with 2.21. I can't remember if its K2_UL or K2_U, but one of those didn't get the new HBoot, but most likely will in a near future update for their device. Everyone else did, and as for K2_CL, don't know yet since we haven't recieved the OTA yet. As far as my knowledge is concerned there isn't a TWRP recovery built for 2.21 unless [MENTION=3142060]old.splatterhand[/MENTION] can correct me on that one. If you downgrade from 2.21 to 2.0 then the custom recovery will work just fine. Must be S-Off in order to downgrade the HBoot.
[HTC One SV] xpirt:
There is 2.6.3.2 version that works on 2.21 hboot, http://d-h.st/YJb.

The TWRP thread by old.splatterhand is updated with latest too.

xpirt
[HTC One SV] :
[MENTION=5132229]xpirt[/MENTION]

Thanks, I couldn't recall if there was one available or not. I got so much knowledge running through my mind its hard to keep up with everything hahaha.
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
Like xpirt said, the latest twrp works with the new hboot.

But anyway, it does not hurt to downgrade to an older hboot, to see if adb/fastboot is back in the game.
[HTC One SV] Smellie2:
I do have a working adb and fastboot, UNTIL I flash a custom recovery. Then I lose contact with adb. When I then try to boot into recovery the phone gets stuck.

I did search, but didn't find a hboot 2.20 for k2u. Where can I find one?
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
There is only 2.21 or 2.00.

Very weird, your problem...
[HTC One SV] Smellie2:
It worked!!

Thanks guys for all your help! Flashing hboot 2.0 did the trick. I now have root again :laugh:
[HTC One SV] luise_sarmiento:
Got my 4.2.2 update

After the long wait, i finally got the 4.2.2 update on my One SV. I am on a carrier so that may be the reason i waited for so long but here it is! Can't wait to download it.
[HTC One SV] cmyasika1:
What carrier are you on?
[HTC One SV] :
Most likely its the European variant. Could also be Cricket's variant. Boost had not received the update.
[HTC One SV] :
Yea, I havent received it yet. Waiting patiently lol.
[HTC One SV] :
Boost is thy pain in thy butt. I think I still don't have 4.2 for my Boost S3. On my other 2 VM and Cricket variants already have 4.3 official. Unbelievable. Not as bad as Verizon though.
[HTC One SV] :
Yea, boost is always at the bottom, but I enjoy what they offer and their phones are fun to crack lol.
[HTC One SV] Omarod:

How can i get update i'm in Algeria?

I have HTC ONE SV k2_ul

Thank you

More information please!

You've got the update notification? What state is your phone?
[HTC One SV] Omarod:
What did you mean about state?
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
Is it S-On/Off, what software installed, device unlocked, everything...
[HTC One SV] Omarod:

[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
Man, please, i don't want to pull everything out of you.

What software number you are running on? Asian software? Phone is branded (by Provider)?
[HTC One SV] Omarod:
software number

2.14.980.2

Phone is branded ??

Where i find this
[HTC One SV] xpirt:
If it's branded by provider (O2, Vodafone, etc)
[HTC One SV] Omarod:
No i think by HTC
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
If you made a contract, to get the phone cheaper, it is branded.

I see in your software number, it is.

Now it must be clarified, if this is an asian software, because you need another radio.img then, as the european phones.
[HTC One SV] Omarod:
Ok

so how can i flash radio.img
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
Let's first check, whats the fact.
[HTC One SV] Omarod:
sorry

i didn't understand yet

would you mind explaining to me what i do?
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
I did for you. Your software number is 2.14.980.2

The 980 stands for Optus_Australia branded software.

If this case is true, you can use the way i provided here in the forum:

Get S-off, get Supercid, downgrade hboot, run the unbranded european RUU, and run the updates.
[HTC One SV] Omarod:
Could you tell me step by step

how can i get S-Off ,Supercid , downgrade hboot , run the unbranded european RUU wich one of those RUU for my phone

Thankx lot for reply
[HTC One SV] thearif:
I don't think that is true everywhere. For example I got my phone through a contract, yet my phone is unbranded.
[HTC One SV] Omarod:
did you get update from OTA?
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
There are for sure different ways in different countries.

Today at least, you will not see much from brandings, as we know it from times like hardeware branding was usual.

Sometimes an app here, some settings there...
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
Go to rumrunner.us, there you will find download and instructions. Make sure, that you have root and no display lock is active on your phone.
[HTC One SV] Omarod:
Where i find the file

Download rumrunner for your device

thank you lot
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
Use the universal file.
[HTC One SV] Omarod:
sorry but i can't fnd it

where is ?
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
The site seems offline. Then you maybe check later or try moonshine.io.
[HTC One SV] Omarod:
GREAT GREAT GREAT

I'm now in S-Off

thank you lot for your time

than what i do now
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
Get Supercid by using the following fastboot command:

fastboot oem writecid 11111111

Then follow this guide.
[HTC One SV] thearif:
Yeah I got the OTA update in November 2013. I got k2u (no LTE) variant.
[HTC One SV] Omarod:
1.) Download the fitting zip file for your device------- Ok

2.) Rename the file to PL80IMG.zip---------------------Ok

3.) Copy it to your sdcard (external not internal)-----------------------Ok

4.) Reboot into bootloader and hit volume up when prompted------------------- I didn't undrstand the method
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
First make sure, when the phone is booted in Android OS, that you can enter your bootloader:

Go to Settings -> Power and

untick

the Fast boot (scroll down, last point on the page)!

Then boot into bootloader:

If your phone is off, you need to hold vol- and push & hold Power Button for some seconds (both together).
[HTC One SV] Omarod:
i didn't undrstand i flash zip file with recovery or what
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
You know, how to use fastboot? Remember how you unlocked your phone, in fastboot mode.

Boot to fastboot mode.
[HTC One SV] Omarod:
1.) Download the fitting zip file for your device

2.) Rename the file to PL80IMG.zip

3.) Copy it to your sdcard (external not internal)

4.) Reboot into bootloader and hit volume up when prompted

in 4th step

I reboot in bootloader and what?

Waht i do with zip file exacly
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
When you are starting into bootloader it is scanning for zip files to flash (automatically).

When it find one, it will ask you to confirm to flash. You must confirm it by pushing volume up button.
[HTC One SV] Omarod:
it shows

Model ID incorrect

Update Fail

Press POWER to reboot
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
Download terminal emulator from playstore and type

getprop ro.romver

getprop ro.modelid

Put the output here.
[HTC One SV] Omarod:
it shows nothing
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
Ok, use this:

getprop ro.aa.modelid

and

getprop ro.aa.romver
[HTC One SV] Omarod:
getprop ro.aa.modelid

PL8010000.PL8015000

getprop ro.aa.romver

2.14.980.2
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
Ok, i have attached a zip file. You can try this, but let me say before:

In worst case your phone is dead, so only flash this, if you are willing to take the risk!
[HTC One SV] Omarod:
maybe is dead or what ???
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
Dead or alive.

Nothing between.

I did it in my best knowledge, but i don't do this everyday. And its very strange for me, that you (in Algeria, right?) have an phone with australian software on it. And hboot is from European phone, not from Australia. But this guy here with phone from Optus_Australia, also flashed successful an European hboot. So, basicly it should work...
[HTC One SV] Omarod:
Ok

When is dead ther is solution for it or not
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
No. Dead is dead.
[HTC One SV] Omarod:
its work perfectly

than i run RUU
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
Good, then work on, with the guide and flash the RUU. :D
[HTC One SV] Omarod:
it shows me this error
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
Then we must go another way.

Go to this thread and download the TWRP Backup from there.

And i'm uploading for you a firmware.zip thats fits to your model ID.
[HTC One SV] Omarod:
Thank you very very much for your time

i downloading the file it takes 3h

we have very bad internet connection in Algeria
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
I can imagine. But i have no other way at the moment, because of your model ID.

Ok, here is the firmware.zip for you: http://d-h.st/69V

Download it too, rename it to PL80IMG.zip and place it on your sd card, like the hboot.

Then boot into bootloader and confirm/flash like the other PL80IMG.zip before. It will take more time to flash, be patient!

The change to fastboot mode and flash recovery.img from here (rename it to recovery.img after download). Boot into recovery and restore the backup you are downloading already.
[HTC One SV] Omarod:
Hi ,

What can i do with img file ?

Recovery_TWRP_2.6.3.2_K2_UL

I flash zip file -k2ul-3114011-422-sense5_3.zip- with recovry than firmwork with bootloader or the both with bootloader?

Thank you very much
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
- Place the Backup (the very big file/folder) into your external sdcard. Must be looking something like this: ext_sdcard/TWRP/BACKUPS/The name of your device serial/The backup date/The backup files.

- Rename Recovery_TWRP_2.6.3.2_K2_UL.img to recovery.img

- Firmware.zip must be flashed in bootloader (like the other PL80IMG.zip).

- Then you need to change to fastboot mode on your phone and flash the recovery.img with fastboot command from your pc:

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

- Next is to boot into recovery and choose restore and search for the backup file and restore it (Not in bootloader)!
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
Here are some pics, hope this helps to clarify some things:

Fastboot mode, when connected to pc -> look at the "Fastboot USB". When its not connected to pc, there is only written "Fastboot":

Bootloader scanning for flashable zip's (happening one time, while starting the bootloader):

Bootloader mode:

You can use the volume up/down button to navigate and the power button to confirm.
[HTC One SV] Omarod:
Sorry

i didn't understand what i do with zip file

i extract it on my sdcard i make new folders 1- TWPR 2- BACKUPS

and what i do first ?
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
Your knowledge don't make it easy for me, lol.

I don't know, what exactly you get, when you download it.

First flash the PL80IMG.zip and then the recovery.

Forget the backup and download this rom for k2ul (k2ul_4.2.2_3.11.401.1_stock_odexed_v3.zip). You can flash this at the end, if everything else went fine. It's easier than the backup.
[HTC One SV] Omarod:
I'm really sorry for my lot of questions

the recovery doesn't read sd card just internal storag
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
Was only a joke, don't take it serious ;)

Recovery read also external sd. Try to tap on there, where internal sd is written. Its long ago, as i changed it.
[HTC One SV] Omarod:
Thank you very much bro its work good

but i don't find Developer option on setting

New to XDA with HTC One SV

Hi, I'm new to the forum, I have the HTC One SV for Boost Mobile (K2_CL) and I too am still waiting for the Android 4.2.2 & Sense 5 update. I do have something to share regarding Boost and Cricket customers of the HTC One SV. On HTC's website in the new software update page (htc com/us/go/htc-software-updates), not only does it explain the process of OTA software updates for android smartphones, but it also list each HTC phone, their expected software update, and what step it is on. Scrolling down, I noticed that Boost and Crickets HTC One SV was listed under "Current Software Versions" as Android 4.2.2 and Sense 5, which means GOOD NEWS they have the update! The problem is, why didn't they send it out yet? I contacted boost mobile via twitter and email and HTC over the phone. Boost basically pointed the finger at HTC and HTC pointed the finger back at Boost, saying that OTAs are sent out through cell towers (not all at once though) and that I should be receiving the update within this week or next week. If not then I would have to send my phone to them so they could flash the update for me. Oh btw, the guy from HTC I was on the phone with did confirm that Cricket did start releasing the update as he was checking whether or not Boost did as well. This morning, boost mobile did hit me back up on twitter basically confirming what HTC already told me saying "they are sent over the air so they are sent out in a bunch daily..." and they don't have specific dates and times. So again to all owners of the HTC One SV for Boost Mobile & Cricket Wireless, our update for Android 4.2.2 & Sense 5 is alive and is being sent out right now!
[HTC One SV] :
[MENTION=5089229]russellvone[/MENTION] :)
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
Glad that you've got it to work! :laugh:

Go to Settings-> About-> Software information-> More and tab many times, fast on "Build number".

If you are doing it often enough, it will show "You are a developer now".
[HTC One SV] :
Good for you! ^.^ I assume its on the HTC fotadl server. Its still rolling out to Cricket, not even done yet lol.
[HTC One SV] :
Gonna hack away at it when it arrives lol.
[HTC One SV] Omarod:
How can i Enabling USB Debugging?
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
If you do, what you have quoted from me, you get access to developer options and you can enable it.

I'm really sorry again i don't see it

many thankx for helping me to get update

When i click on Sense 5 Toolbox it shows

Hello

old.splatterhand

i have question about security in recovery

is there any way to protect wipe data an factory reset with code

coz when phone lost who find them just he do the factory reset or wipe all data you cannot track the phone

Thank you very much
[HTC One SV] :
I have been wondering the same thing myself. I saw that to be a HUGE security risk a long time ago.
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
Thats a big thing, which i can't answer.

But you can try to get in contact with "Team Win" and hope that they will make such feature if it isn't there: http://teamw.in/contact
[HTC One SV] :
Probably won't make a difference because even if there was a passcode designed for the custom recovery all one has to do is wipe it out with a fresh custom recovery (unless they implemented a method to where passcode is stored on the device itself (but then all one would need to do is use CWM to bypass that)) and if they really know what they are doing they could port a custom twrp to their liking and use that so it would ignore the passcode. Regardless, there really is no way (that I can personally think of) which would protect us from such a security risk -assuming that if our devices fell in to the hands of another who knew what they were doing.

---------- Post added at 10:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:27 AM ----------

A couple of years ago I was given an iPhone for about $100. It took me less than a couple of minutes to wipe it out and gain access to it. FYI :)

Boost & Cricket Update

Has anyone from Boost Mobile or Cricket received their update yet or not? Because I've waited a week like the guy I spoke to from HTC said and I still haven't gotten it yet. I wonder if anyone else from Boost or even Cricket received theirs yet. If not then I'll be glad to contact Boost & HTC again.
[HTC One SV] russellvone:

boost= no

The bad news for us

http://htcsource.com/2014/01/offici...-status-no-more-updates-planned-beyond-4-2-2/
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
No surprise, i never expected more than 4.2.2 for our device.
[HTC One SV] HeIIBoy:
me too, I never expect too much from htc. but there is not much support from developers for our device. that's the sad thing
[HTC One SV] ipit:
Apologies if this sounds like a stupid question but I've read so many threads lately for various models so I just need to confirm.

Is there a way to update the Baseband/Radio on my HTC ONE SV (S-ON)? I know Vodafone (Aus) have released the 4.2.2 update but I don't really want to RUU etc to update. I'm happy to stay with 4.1 Saturn and just update the radio if there's a 'safe' way as I'm having some reception issues (which may or may not be fixed by the radio of course)
[HTC One SV] russellvone:
not a stupid question, but you have to be s-off to flash radio.img

---------- Post added at 05:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:42 PM ----------

you know what...let's try something, do you have the radio.img?

---------- Post added at 05:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:43 PM ----------

and are you K2_UL?
[HTC One SV] ipit:
Thanks mate. Actually that was going to be my 2nd question. I saw on the Vodafone site that the update is out but unfortunately I can't just download it. I was hoping I can get it from here. I'm assuming Australia would be the same as Europe? I just need support for 3G 850Mhz.

You're right I'm K2_UL
[HTC One SV] russellvone:
well, it looks like all OneSV variants hold the radio.img in mmcblk0p16, so do this and tell me if it works

place the radio.img on root of your internal sd

e.g.

/sdcard/radio.img

then open Android terminal emulator type this

su[enter]

dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p16 of=/sdcard/stock_radio.img[enter]

this will copy your current radio.img(if it works)

then do this(with the radio.img you want to try named radio.img and placed on root of internal sd)

dd if=/sdcard/radio.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p16[enter]

and this will flash new radio(if possible with just root)

good luck
[HTC One SV] ipit:
Thanks buddy, I'll try when I get home and report back. In the meantime I need to find the updated radio.img :)

It should work. Worse case, need to be S-Off. Its how I push my images these days. I got tired of booting in to the bootloader hahaha.
[HTC One SV] jonathan.brito.75685:
what happened to boost mobile HTC one sv update?

I read a few days ago that boost already had the update and I was wondering how many more weeks will we have to wait for the update to arrive?
[HTC One SV] :
Depends on Boost. They got to add their restrictions and bloatware, trademarks, etc, etc, etc to the update that HTC has handed over to them. Its confirmed that they have it. All we can do is wait at this point.
[HTC One SV] esp7:
Indeed... We need some people to focus on a custom rom alternative, preferably cyanogenmod.
[HTC One SV] MachiavelliBs:
This is for devices with tegra chipset,there is still hope for us. Ive read that htc got problems with the drivers from nvidia for this models. We do use different chipsets . We will see ;)
[HTC One SV] :
I would be knocked down to the ground and choking if this device is given more than what has already been given lol.
