It is being released little be little to predesignated areas to prevent the servers from being overloaded with everyone downloading it at the same time. When your day comes, Sprint will push it out through you local towers and everyone will get it.
[EVO 4G General] DayoDee:
Well I spoke to a sprint representative and they said from 12/15/10 to 12/17/10 it should be rolling out with that update
[EVO 4G General] pixelpop:
Nothing in Dallas yet.
[EVO 4G General] weidnerj:
Question to ask - this a all EVO version patch, or a 0002 and 0003 but not 0004 or possibly 0004 and not 0002 and 0003 like the last MR? I have 0002 hardware and haven't got the update notification.
[EVO 4G General] jackjumper85:
It is universal, this will allow htc to have all hardware revisions on one software version so they dont have to make separate roms. As for u not getting the update, it is being released by location. Sprint said they should have it rolled out by tomorrow (the 17th)
[EVO 4G General] thegregbradley:
The various info I've been hearing is that the only people who have currently updated to the 3.7 are 0004 hardware version phones. Any truth to this rumor? I'm 0003, running software version 3.29.651.5 CL252548, and I've been hearing that similar phones to mine have not, and possibly will not get this update. I'll check tomorrow and see if the Sprint rep was right about the 17th being another wave of updates sent out.
[EVO 4G General] secondskin:
My hardware and software numbers are the exact same as yours and I'm still waiting.
[EVO 4G General] vkuber:
So whenever this update rolls out and my device updates it will unroot my Evo? I'm just rooted from unrevoked w/ no custom rom/flashes.

EDIT : Okay it will.
[EVO 4G General] ronartest2005:
So my wife has the white evo and she got the update within 20mins of me reading about the update online. I got my evo the first day it came out, and I still havent gotten the update.

So im sure it has to do with build number.

[EVO 4G General] dreamer3kx:
Did you manually check, Im in NYC also and manual update worked fine.
[EVO 4G General] Matstarr:
Yes I have nothing and its now Saturday zip lol its ok cause Im waiting for Myns rooted version its just funny that for some reason it wasnt pushed to me:cool:
[EVO 4G General] DarkManX4lf:
If you are rooted and have a custom rom, can you still get the OTA update by manually checking for an update?

I thought the updates can only be received OTA if you have the stock rom ?
[EVO 4G General] josh995:
Lol I got the update like five minutes after I posted this. Haha

Sent from my HTC EVO 4G.
[EVO 4G General] PGRtoo:
Well I just checked (again) and I'm still getting "No Update Available". :mad:

I happened to be in the Radio Shack store where I bought my Evo (on unrelated business) and I asked their phone specialist about it. He said the phone won't update OTA if the network signal (3G or 4G) isn't real strong.

Has anyone else heard this? Has anyone successfully updated OTA in an area with marginal signal? I have no reason to be suspicious about this information except the fact that I haven't read anything of the kind in this or any other forum.

My other question is whether the rumors are true that the OTA update doesn't wipe the phone. That's the only reason I haven't downloaded the update to my PC and updated that way.

Pete
[EVO 4G General] Tahde:
Been checking since yesterday to see if I got any updates, but unsuccessful. Last 30 minutes I tried with no good results either.

However, I just turned phone off and took out battery and waited 5 minutes. Put phone back together and powered up phone to see if that helped. Nope. Then I proceeded to uncheck "scheduled check" and hit ok. Went back in and checked "scheduled check"...............said I had update. Downloading now.

With those that have not received the update, thats what worked for me. Might be worth a try.
[EVO 4G General] thlinx:
I'm assuming this wont work on a Rooted phone?
[EVO 4G General] secondskin:
I'm not sure about the signal issue but I've downloaded and installed the ota finally and it didn't wipe anything so no worries there.

Lol I can only imagine how pissed people would be if otas wiped everything. Those familiar with flashing roms are used to backing up everything then wiping and doing fresh installs but the general public would probably **** if this happened when they updated their phones.
[EVO 4G General] werxen:
What did you do? I am rooted with stock rom and it fails - seems like its failing for everyone that is rooted.
[EVO 4G General] Wizerest:
Updating to 3.7 with Root

QUICK DISCLAIMER

FIRST I'D LIKE TO STATE THAT IN NO WAY AM I AN EXPERT AT THIS PEOPLE & I DO NOT CLAIM TO BE. AS MY STATS SHOW I'M STILL A NOOB AND I CONSIDER MYSELF ONE!! ANY STEPS OR INSTRUCTIONS PROVIDED HERE BY ME ARE ONLY A PRODUCT OF MY INTENSE RESEARCH COMBINED WITH TRIAL & ERROR. FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS AT YOUR OWN RISK!! I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF ATTEMPTING THESE STEPS DO NOT WORK FOR YOU OR DAMAGE YOUR PHONE IN ANY FORM!!!

With that said, if this helps you... a thanks would be nice! :)

Yea, THIS failed for me initially as well. I used unrevoked3 to root my evo 003 hardware and therefore was still s-ON. You want to make sure that you've flashed unrevoked forever to obtain s-OFF in your hboot and that you're on a stock rom for sense with all original apps installed, then you will be able to download the OTA update to 3.70 with no problem. ...Well @ least that's how I got it to work for me! ;)

Here is a little more detail....

After obtaining s-OFF using unrevoked forever, you will have to find a stock (unrooted) version of sense rom (I was able to locate the link somewhere here in the forums) and then put that zip file onto the root folder of your sd card. Next, I would advise using nandroid to backup all your data, then doing a clean wipe of your cache, dalvik, and data before proceeding to next step, although I'm not sure if it is necessary. Then you need to reboot into hboot. It will scan your sd card, locate the file and ask if you want to update (your technically really downdating though lol, this being you'll probably be installing an older version of the sense stock rom - I had to install 3.2x something I believe). Once the update is finished in hboot, it will ask you to reboot. Select yes using the volume up key & once you boot, you will now have a stock version of sense rom. At this point, you will/should have s-OFF still showing in your h-boot, but you should not be able to get any root apps to work for you. You can now download the OTA update without any problems. For me it first updated me to 3.29, then I had to do another update again to 3.70.

******VERY IMPORTANT******

One you have completed the update to 3.70, before you go on I advise removing the stock sense rom file you placed in the root of your sd so that if & when you boot into hboot you do not accidentally accept the update to install(downstall) back to the stock sense rom.

Now that the final OTA update is done, you can simply download the zip file for any recovery of your choice (I used clockwork) and place it into the root folder of your sd card. Load back into hboot by powering off your phone, then holding volume down button while holding down power button until hboot screen loads up. Once again it will cycle your sd card and ask if you would like to apply the update. Select yes and you have now installed a custom recovery which you can use to install the superuser app for full root permissons once again.

Hope this helps!!
[Nexus S General] DOHCtor:
Just a the title states. I tried going through setup with no sim card, using only wifi. When I do it that way, it shows "download" instead of "t-mobile". But once I power off the phone, insert sim card, and power it back up, the t-mobile tab returns. I never had this problem with the Nexus One.

I hope there's a solution, but if there's not, I'll live with it.
[Nexus S General] psp888:
does it only show when you put a T-mobile sim in?
[Nexus S General] DOHCtor:
Yes. I tried removing the sim card afterwards and loaded up the market, and the t-mobile tab is replaced with the download tab.
[Nexus S General] SphericalPuma:
It's weird. When I first played with my phone it said T-Mobile. Then, for about an hour it said downloads, and now it's back to T-Mobile.
[Nexus S General] DOHCtor:
Having to press menu then download is just another extra step I would like to avoid. I guess there's no way around this for now until maybe a custom rom...
[Nexus S General] milkham:
I'd like to get rid of this too, I don't care what t-mobile thinks of apps, i find myself hitting it out of reflex since it used to be the downloads tab.
[Nexus S General] Darrien13:
it used to bother me now im just used to it.
[Nexus S General] Anderdroid:
I know there is a way to do this... I'll try to figure out once the new market gets officially pushed to the Nexus S, and fix it on that version. There should be a variable somewhere where you can force it to show downloads instead of T-Mobile.
[Nexus S General] going_home:
He Went Thatta Way >>>>

I wondered what happened to the downloads tab.

I thought its was just Alzheimers kicking in .

:o
[Nexus S General] vapor311:
i use market access to emulate the att market place so i always see the download tab.
[Nexus S General] PhantomRampage:
any update on how to remove this tab?
[Nexus S General] shrivelfig:
Dump T-Mobile? :p

Isn't Market open source? Just edit the source and recompile.
[Nexus S General] sagech:
Root your phone and install Market Enabler, then select an operator to fake your phone's network provider.
[HTC Aria Android Development] duckredbeard:
I'm going to do an adb pull to insert an icon into Tasker, for it to be used for notifciations. I'll do the icon add in windows, then push the app back to the Aria. Where should I expect to find the Tasker app? It does not allow install to the sd, so it is somewhere in the internal. Anyone have Tasker and can find it?
[HTC Aria Android Development] zervic:
/data/app/net.dinglisch.android.tasker-1.apk

[HTC Aria Android Development] duckredbeard:
Is there a way to use terminal emulator to push a file into this app?

My last Intruder was a Grumman A-6E.
[HTC Aria Android Development] zervic:
Great question - I don't know. What you might check out is PULLING the APK and extracting it with WinRAR or you're alternative zip program and placing the file you want in there...what exactly are you trying to accomplish? After you replace or place your file rezip and rename to .apk ... please note I do not know if this 'method' is suitable for what you are trying to do, don't know if it will work or what...in my eyes its worth a shot...if anything your phone just wont install it.another thing I'd try is, unseasonable of unzipping, then rezipping just drop the file in there and place/replace, then put on SDCARD and try to sideload it.
[HTC Aria Android Development] duckredbeard:
If you are familiar with Tasker, this should make sense. I'll give you the quick version.

I have three modes, Home, Car, and Work. When I leave home, Tasker detects my home network has been disconnected and switches to car mode (wifi off, bluetooth on, gps on). When I arrive at work, Tasker's gps function detects my location and switches to work mode (wifi off, gps off, bluetooth off). When I leave work, Tasker uses "cell near" detection to see that I have left work and goes back to car mode (wifi off, gps on, bluetooth on). Tasker monitors gps data and knows when I have returned home sets everything back to home (wifi on, gps off, bluetooth off). There are other settings that get changed as well, such as brightness and volume levels. Quite complex to set up, but it is totally automated. I believe it saves battery by keeping unnecessary functions off when not needed.

So, what I'm trying to do is have Tasker initiate a notification (tasker does this also) when each state changes. The notification can be made to be "permanent" and is only cleared by the change of mode. When setting up Tasker to do these notifications, there are only a few stock ones to chose from. Things like teddy bears and penguins and stars. I'd like to use different icons. So I believe the solution is to find suitable icons (24x24 or 32x32 png images) and name them the same as what is found in the apk. The file icon_notify_bear.png will become a VW logo for car mode, etc. It should show up in the list of icons available for the notification. I intend to replace those that are not of interest and add a few others, using the same file name structure.

More info (though outdated) can be found here http://tasker.dinglisch.net/tour.html#notify

Tasker has been updated many times since that, it has many more and better features and functions now. Except easily adding icons for notifications. The dev says that android won't allow it through the app itself. So I'm going in through the back door.
[HTC Aria Android Development] zervic:
Alright, well I am familiar with tasker but didn't know about the different notification icons. Anyway, what I told you above is exactly what I would try. Pull the APK from your phone, open it in winrar have a looksie at what you can find (note you may have to unzip to see what each file is, but I wouldn't rezip it to achieve this task), once you find what you need to replace drag and drop from windows to winrar...winrar SHOULD ask you if you want to replace what's already in there. If it doesn't, this 'method' will probably not work. If it does, either push it back to your phone or just drop it on your sdcard and sideload it, test it out and see what you can come up with. May take a few trial and error failures but that's all part of the learning experience in my opinion.
[HTC Aria Android Development] duckredbeard:
I've read a thing or two about apps in the /data/app need to be signed after edit. Not a clue what I am to do with that advice

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cnlwatkins:
If I put my phone back to s- on will it enAble it receive the new Ota? And is there any way to unroot without wiping the system . My wife wants it unrooted and still has the stock system . But she doesn't want to wipe it. Any thoughts ?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] setexascustoms:
Unrevoked has an s-on tool (won't wipe anything), and if she's on the stock ROM with no bloat removed she should be able to accept the OTA. That's what I know, anyways.:D
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] titans808:
Couldn't find it through searching so if someone could answer this for me, it'd be great.

I'm considering purchasing an Incredible, but am definitely thinking of going with the 1750 or 2150 extended battery. Do these calibrate correctly with the phone's battery meter? The ones on the Droid 1 do not, Droid 1 users have to reboot to see their actual usage. If it would contribute to a more accurate answer, I will most likely be running custom roms with 1% indications. Thanks
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] setexascustoms:
Yes, best I can tell. I have the Seidio 1750 and I have to say, if you don't mind your phone being a little thicker I'd go with the HTC 2150. I still barely make it through a full day with moderate use.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WillisD:
Yes they read correctly, just bought the 2150 yesterday. Thought it was defective due to it taking 8+hrs to charge from 56%, but it was my usb cable. Sad thing is the phone is only 1wk old. Got it on a two year contract, not a CPO either. They do provide a better experience versus stock. Got 12+hrs of heavy usage, without bump charging.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] titans808:
Thanks for the replies. Yeah I was considering the 2150, but I don't like added bulk (kind of the reason why I want to switch from a Droid to an Inc). I like what this guy did, but have no experience whatsoever in dremeling http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=703332
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gahh Its Lee:
I bought an 1800 battery off eBay and it fits tthe normal back so no bulk
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] titans808:
Thanks for your opinion. One more question (I hope this isn't a stupid one) do I need to look for special roms for the SLCD incredible? Or can I use any ROM?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SuperFly03:
I have the 3700Mah battery and I end the day with 30% lol.

The added bulk is all good because with the new back it's a perfect square.

So the wp7 emulator can be skinned and run at different resolutions. I think it would make a cool US for tablets but to be useful the Marketplace and HTTPS would have to work in the emulator. Has any one had any luck the that?

Here is a video of the emulator running on a 1280x800 display

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Commander Data:
I wish Micrsoft could figure out how hot this is. It would lake SO LITTLE work from them to make this happen. Just look at what Apple did with iOS! I know OEMs need time to put something together, but they are already trying so hard with Win7 that you would think they would be relieved to have something like this from MS, even if there were hardware restrictions. Very nice.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] tyrannus:
I wonder why an OEM wouldn't just do it anyway? Make big "phone", run it at 1200x800 and bam, you have this.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] kapanak:
Well, the problem is that WP7 is NOT an open platform. Manufacturers must follow a strict requirement list to be certified, and that list does not include a 1200X800 resolution display yet...
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] tyrannus:
That's not true about the 1200x800, but you are right about being certified part.

I'm just wondering why no one has done it anyway...

You can fire up the emulator at this resolution and get the same results as seen in the video. No changes to the OS. Also, that's why you see odd behavior on the home screen, because it's not rendering the next part until activated and you get it "popping up".
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] lizardpro:
The trick is to unlock a rom so the marketplace, zune, mail, ssl ,etc work in the emulator.

[G Tablet General] Finch106:
Are there any sales now or in the near future for the G Tablet? I know last weekend Sears had it for $379 I believe, anything like that happening again before Christmas that anyone knows about? I saw a thread for the $50 credit towards a website, but I don't think that'll work for me.
[G Tablet General] gogorman:
I've also been looking for one, but I don't believe there are any sales right now.

The best deal is to get one reconditioned from Sears Outlet....if you can. $279 usually. The stock is always 0 or really low (like 1 or 2 nationwide) and come 8pm at night they are usually all gone. Only available for store pickup too, so you need to be near the store to get one. This is what I;m hoping for right now.
[G Tablet General] CartmanTheTub:
Like gogorman said sears outlet is the best way to go. I just picked mine up today. I drove 1h 30min to pick it up. It was worth the drive. I got mine for $250. There is one scratch on the back and lot of finger print on the screen but for $250 it cant be beat and gas only costed me $20.
