In Settings > About Phone > System Updates, it says "Android Update 1.5" at the top, and when I click download everything seems to go smooth, and it says "Requires a restart". So I power my phone down, power it back up, and go to System Updates, and it still says I need "Android Update 1.5". Is there a way to check if the update actually happened, or what should I do?

I have the HTC incredible, and about 2 weeks ago the 2.2 update came through. When I hit the download button nothing happened. How do I get the update to come back?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a DX running the 2.2 OTA. I rooted my phone but did nothing else (no deodex, no custom anything.) I did rename some of the default apps to disable them but backed up before. Now, here is my question. I want to check for updates (I know where are none, but I keep hoping there will be to fix all the little bugs Froyo seems to have) and I get a "Check for update was not available at this time." I get this EVERY TIME.
Could this be a problem from rooting? Is anyone else having this issue? And yes, I did disable the wifi only updating in settings, so it isn't that.
The version of the software that is most current is version 6 (the phone shipped with version 3).
To ascertain version: Go to Dialer/Hit Star/#9999#
You will see the PDA; Phone; and Software Version numbers in this section
The T939xxxx6 for PDA AND PHONE and then
Software Version - ending in .006 on the last line.
I was told that the reason that I keep seeing the "No update file exists" message when I check "update firmware" is because I have the latest version.
At some point my phone was updated without giving me a message. I did notice the red and blue arrows yesterday. But there was no message. My SD card mounted and dismounted on its own and gave an error message, and then all references to the error and SD card disappeared.
If your phone is/has exhibited this sort of behavior, you may already have the update.
This morning I power cycled my Eris for for first time in a week or so. After that, the notificaton area said I have four updates waiting.I think I selected the "My Tracks" app for update, but when I did, it told me to make sure I had at least 40% battery charge, the phone would be unusable during the update, etc., and it proceeded to install the OTA update to build 1.17.605.1.That's fine, but now the phone doesn't show any apps with available updates.Will these apps automatically notify me again that updates are available? Do all apps routinely check?

View 5 Replies View RelatedIs there a way that I can check a text message while on the web, then return to the same spot I was?
I'm pretty sure that if I open up the browser, most of the time it will take you back to the last page you were on.
But if i click on a link in gmail that takes me to this site, for instance, then I get a text message, i cant read my text message without having to back out of the webpage i'm on and loosing my spot.
Which is pretty frustrating.
Is there something I'm overlooking?
Or maybe a different browser?
How do you make it so the phone doesn't automatically check for emails? I get so few that it would be better for me to be able to simply do a "manual" check when I want, rather than have the phone check all the time. Besides, I don't NEED to be notified every time I get an email since most are crap anyway.
View 7 Replies View RelatedAll great website I have been reading for months. I have a Yahoo email question. When I use the program "mail" on my Eris and input my email and password it automatically uses an imap server. I notice that on the imap server I cannot use WiFi to check my email. When I use the Yahoo mail as a pop server it works perect on WiFi. I don't understand the difference. Which is better imap or pop?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI woke up after a nap this afternoon (you know, after coloring but before recess ) ... and i had received a text and i went to reply and my auto correct didnt know the word 'you' 'eat' and a few others and i am sure there are many more i will find. i do not know how to fix it. i guess i will just have to work through it and add the words it doesnt know.
But also if i type 'lol' then by default 'LOL' will come up if i press space unless i manually go up and select 'lol' in the little word list predict thing <--yes, that is the actual HTC given name , this is also the case for many other words and if i add the word to the dictionary it still might not use it automatically. even if i spell it right and it is in the list it may use another word when i press space.
I'm pretty sure I saw a thread about this before, but couldn't find it once I actually needed it. Anyways, I'm having trouble with getting my notification for my email to go away. It's not a problem with gmail, but the mail app. The notification disappears from the notification bar once I check my email, but the "1" stays in the icon for the mail app even after I've deleted it. I've checked all my folders, inbox, drafts, sent, etc. and there's nothing in any of them. Any fixing?

View 3 Replies View RelatedHas an else had issues with the Sync of Facebook contacts since update 2.0.1?
All of my merged accounts profiles are all missing. Then when I try and re-edit the contact it says I am unable to edit Facebook contacts on this Device. What happened here? Anyone?
I want some more people to try this:
un-check flash in the settings, clear cache and restart the phone.
I haven't had any crashes or forced closes since I did this.
I want to show an update message for a new release - the first time the user opens the updated version of my app, a pop-up dialog should appear, saying what's new, with an OK button. After the user has read it once, it shouldn't appear again.
Is there any inbuilt Android variable I can check to see whether the user has opened the app before?
Of course, I can define my own boolean in the app settings ("hasUserSeenUpdateMessage") to check each time the app runs - setting it to false initially, and then true when the user clicks OK.
Why is it when I click the check for update it tells me no firmware? Also since I did the one update my phone tells me lots of time that a new update was installed and phone is ready for use. Do I have to find the update somewhere and run or install it manually?

It did say that the phone would check again at the next scheduled time so I can download it then if need be - but does anyone know how to make the phone check before then?
My friend has just bought a Galaxy S and was wondering if 2.2 is out for his phone yet, if you can tell me this or tell me how to check. I know with my Evo it just sent me a message saying it was available.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI've noticed this before but haven't given it much thought, but I've noticed that it seems that certain apps are running in the background for no reason. I usually notice this by checking task killer. However, just now while using another app, I got a force-close error for ShopSavvy, which hasn't been used in several days.
Why would something like this run randomly in the background? Is it part of an update check? Any ideas?
I tried the to update software on my X2, and ota all went fine until the last step - installing the updates on my phone, there it failed with massage that it could not install and I should check my battery and then that I should try again after recharge. I tried after recharging and still the same error. Now I cannot even start my phone - after switching on it stops with SonyEricsson symbol and hangs there. I need the phone.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI was having trackball issues on my Eris AGAIN. I called verizon for the second time to get a second replacement phone for the same issue. They are sending me an Incredible!
Now, before I send my Eris in, I just want to be absolutely sure there is nothing on my phone that indicates that it was rooted. Does anyone know what all they check? What can I check on it? Under settings, network, the operator name is unknown. Is that the same for stock phones? Or when I unrooted it, could that have cleared that out?
I have been waiting for the announcement of ADC3. with wide open eyes. Can any going to give me some updates when it is going to be announced or whether ADC3 is going to happen or not.

View 3 Replies View RelatedHey guys, something is going on with my keyboard. I'm currently using the stock keyboard. You know when you put your finger on a letter and you get the box hovering over telling what letter you are pressing? For some reason mines not showing up when I use the keyboard in portrait mode. But when I go to the number pad or w/e they show up again. When the keyboard is in landscape mode, it doesn't suffer from any of these problems. The only thing I did with the keyboard was install the thick fingers keyboard to test it out and then I installed it. Can you guys help me out?
