View 15 RepliesSprint mandatory update has screwed up my voice mail?
Today, got a pop up--mandatory update, voicemail to text crap.
After install,
1. Speakerphone on voicemail doesn't work.
2. Call back on voicemail doesn't work.
3. Get "Subscribe to Voicemail-to-Text" button.
Did these fools foul up my phone, or what? Solutions, other than gelignite at Sprint HQ ?
I keep getting a message that a mandatory update is now available, but when I try to download it, I get a message stating "general failure. Please try again later." The phone is rooted, and I assume that this is what is causing the failure. So my questions are, what happens if I do not download the update, and what can I do to stop recieving the message? it seems to pop up everytime I recieve a text.

I was just hit with a message that says,
"In Order to continue using this app, you must download to version 1.2 of this app in order to continue"
then I have 'Install' and "Exit".
Is this common or a possible virus/bug?
well at 4:16 pm EST 11-27 I got this message that tells me there is a "mandatory update"
I dont want to do it simply because it says "mandatory" where do they get off telling me that some update is mandatory and not even supply a change log or anything telling me what it is
I need to know what this is before I update in case it makes something suck or breaks something - this is why I hacked my Palm Pre because the webos updates screwed up something and I had to root it and edit some file to prevent the updates from happening, Palm didnt give you an choice, after a couple of times it would apply it anyways even if you didnt want it, I dont want this to happen here so do I have to root my epic just to prevent things like this?
I use google voice voicemail anyways so why do I even get this message
Ok just got this "mandatory" voicemail notification from sprint.. My phone is NOT rooted, Nor does hit have the Android Update 2.1 that came out in May.. I hit download and it does it but when it goes to install it says 'error installing' and button for Retry... I've tried doing this several times.. Couple of questions .. Do I have to do this ? If I do do this will Sprint be charging me to use this ? Finally WHY am i getting this error? My phone has been fine since earlier in the year since I got it ..

"Website: Sprint HTC Hero Android 2.1 Upgrade Leaked" Rumors have been flying around the web about Spring releasing an official Android 2.1 upgrade for their HTC Hero mobile phone.The dates for the Android 2.1 upgrade for the Spring HTC Hero have been speculated to be either on April 29th, and others simply by the end of April.But according to BlogsDNA.com, hackers at XDA Developers forum have leaked a Sprint HTC Hero test ROM marked:
RUU_Hero_C_Sprint_2.20.651.1_signed_test The stands for Radio Unit Update, and is a common package that HTC phones of all kinds use, from Windows Mobile Phones to Android Roms.Without a doubt, the remaining days in the month of April building up to be full of high profile mobile phone announcements.Expected this month (April) are the HTC Incredible and Nexus One at Verizon, and now this, the Sprint HTC Hero Android 2.1 upgrade.
Rumors were also spreading about a possible iPhone / Verizon deal being announced.We ve already had the iPhone OS 4.0 announcement.And of course, I would be remiss to leave out the iPad announcement from Apple.
I went through all the troubleshooting steps in the "Update Available From Sprint" thread, making sure I was on v1.29.651.1, yada yada. Worked on this for a week and a half. Spoke with Sprint, spoke with HTC, no luck. Going to firmware update always reported NO UPDATE AVAILABLE.
Took the phone back to Best Buy and demanded an exchange. After receiving the new phone, went to try to firmware update, it showed that one was available. I asked for my old battery back since it was charged fully so that I could do the update. Put my old battery back in, went to update, NO UPDATE AVAILABLE!
Turns out it was my battery? Put the new one back in and the update was successful. I had scoured the net before but did not notice anyone with this particular issue. I

View 2 Replies View RelatedAfter losing root due to F'ed up rom flash, I can still boot into recovery mode (clockworkmod) which is annoying as its like I'm half rooted. So I came across the "one click" hero/evo root method, unrevoked, and that told me I was rooted though I am not. I am kinda ocd and am extremely annoyed by this whole half rooted none of the benefits and all of the shortcomings deal (loss of warranty, back to slow stock 2.1, ect). Thought about taking it to a Sprint store and have them reflash the 2.1 Ruu but was told over the phone that it is impossible to do this. Lastly, I decided it was time to update the software to the dreaded, root-breaker .6 version. So I download the update and go to install it, installation fails and leaves me staring at my clockwork recovery screen, not what I expected. I'm assuming it failed because of my phones unique situation.

My brother has the Hero too and I remember last week I believe he told me this update showed up on his notifications bar at the top, and I had no idea what he was talking about. Assuming that was the .6 OTA, why didn't anything show up on mine? Also, if in case I did get it, how do I know?

I will be periodically checking numerous websites for fixes on this problem. I would like anyone who has any information on this fix to let it be known becuase I have found alot of people in my same shoes. Hopefully This can be really helpful to some people.
