Update Fails Because I Removed Bloatware?

[DirkBelig]

I'm rooted and I used Titanium Backup Pro to take off the stupid Blockbuster app (and maybe some others) that was wasting scarce space and when applying the OTA GB update, I get this string in the flash screen:

Copying fotaBoot to /data/system for customize reload...
Verifying current system...
assert failed: apply_patch_check("/system/app/Blockbuster_htc.apk", "2eE:unknown command [d5631987b8ffea821ca88af1c9421578060581",]
E:unknown command [03")]

E:Error in /cache/OTA_Supersonic_4.22.651.2-3.70.651.1_releasefd659qys0dtscpjv.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.

What to do? Try and remember what all I pried off and slap it back on? Bleah.

Stop, do not do the ota if you're rooted. Check the root section and read my psa

yet another reason for me not to try it...i have no bloatware.

Okey-doke. I just restored the crapware; I guess I'll take them back out and wait for the rooted ROM and your guide. Thanks.

How do I get rid of the now-pointless update that was downloaded? It's sitting in the Notification bar and probably eating storage space somewhere. Thanks.

You got that right!

Should have used Bloat Freezer instead of deleting Bloat! [End shameless plug]

Here is my guide to updating if you are rooted, without losing root, without flashing a new ROM (which I believe does not even update the radio if you just flash the rom) but just flashing the OTA and then re-rooting.

What's up with these snotty nerds crapping on those who have questions and dare to ask them before wrecking their phones? Most people aren't born with the superior, all-encompassing knowledge that you were blessed with. Please pity those who are forced to learn what you've always known.

Ass.

^Mis-understanding there, he isnt rooted. He was poking fun at all rooted people. Calmness is key, i dont like to play baby-sitter and hand out infractions.

Anywho, check my sig for the guide.
