In addition anyone having an issue with 1x connecting to data. Signal Check will show a 1x connection only, but no data, whereas in the same location as before the 4.3 update, 1x would connect to data no problem.

 

Are you actually not connecting, or is SignalCheck reporting it wrong? If you're not sure, I can take a look if you click About > Send Diagnostics. A screenshot wouldn't hurt either.

I'm not sure if this is new or not. I reactivated my nexus 5 a couple days ago and powered my EVO off. In the morning, it turned it self on in airplane mode to play the alarm that was still set for 7am. After dismissing the alarm, a box came up asking if I wanted to power it off.

The final word from HTC is that the update cannot be downloaded OTA. Theyre going to make a simple manual download process to yet the update on the device.

Did they say that on Twitter?? I wonder why it's happening that way?

The recent 4.3 update is not a public release, it is only a beta accessible to specific users (i.e. those who contact Mo directly and ask to participate). It wouldn't make any sense to be an OTA, because that would be pushed out to everyone.

It was said in the HTC AMA on Reddit.

Sprint's EVO 4G LTE can't get 4.3 OTA, so HTC is trying something different http://www.androidcentral.com/sprints-evo-4g-lte-cant-get-43-ota-so-htc-trying-something-different

I did notice that the storage space was different.  I just hope it's easy to do - although I suppose those that really care about having 4.3 will be more than able to do it themselves!

 

The trial did install pretty easily - only took about 10 minutes after I downloaded the 826 MB file.  I spent a lot of time trying to save things off it before I updated, because I wasn't sure what would happen to them.  I'm pretty sure it deleted everything that was there, so I was glad that I did that.

Yes, thats expected. you lose all internally saved things when doing the RUU update to this due to the re-partitioning...

i did the htc sync manager backup before running the RUU and a restore after. Messages, phone history, and contacts seemed to restore well, in addition to my background. Overall my phone has been running much better with 4.3. Sense has only crashed once since the update whereas before the update it would crash multiple times each day.

Did your wifi settings and passwords back up also?

I got the RUU file, but I read somewhere that you can't perform the update on a computer running Windows 8.1.

 

My other computer is running Ubuntu, do you guys think it'd work on that?

 

I could try at school too, all we have are Macs but some have a Virtual Machine version of Windows 7.

I could not do the update with 8.1 due to driver issues when it starts searching for the bootloader. I had to do the update with Windows 7 computer....

Yikes. Will final require a WinPC possibly? I'm in a pickle if that's the case

    • Probably a lot of Midwest towers. Slight bias since Nebraska is a weird market, but there are tons of USCC sites that T-Mobile isn't yet co-located on. Think a similar situation in Iowa, Wisconsin, and Missouri. But some other markets, like yours, probably don't have that issue!
    • Sticky Customers - YES, and leave them flip to the T-Mobile PLMN when needed and they will be even more likely to Stick.
    • It seems to me that if the goal is to improve rural, the US Cellular buy-out would get them only part of the way there, considering there are plenty of rural areas that US Cellular does not serve.  But I also have a hard time reading it the way I think that article is, that the cost of this deal comes straight out of the $9 billion.  I mean, they're getting spectrum for their existing operations in US Cellular markets, including places that I wouldn't call rural.  (Roanoke, VA is the 9th largest city in the state, for example.)  It seems like some of it should be allocated to rural expansion, but certainly not the whole purchase price. There's also something to be said for getting the customer base of potentially sticky customers who have been used to US Cellular being the only game in town for potentially decades. - Trip
    • T-Mobile has stated 15% of their sites don't have 5g triband. In WV I know WISPs had a lot of 2.5GHz, but T-Mobile was trying to buy as much as possible. More rural FWA would be a big selling point that might overcome any soft bandwidth cap slight overages. Especially since UScellular likely started offering it on c-band.
