Nov 8 2010 maintenance update

[PamelaBB]

Is there a way to downgrade from this update? I have the 2.2firmware file but when I go into hboot and try to run it is says that i have a newer version on the phone and won't allow me to upgrade. On a side note i tried to install clockwork but hboot just checks and goes back to the menu, not a thing. Another reason I want to try to go to the original 2.2firmware. thanks.

I never had any issues with the tag info before the update, but it seems fine now as well.

The issue with tags seems to be mostly with WMA and AAC files, not reading artist and disk/track info from the tags. Worked in Donut, but tanked in Froyo.

What is the kernel version for the update? I did it but other than VCast apps and Slacker I don't see any improvements. My battery still takes forever to charge.

Has HTC even acknowledged this problem? Fix that one glaring issue would make so many people happy.

The new kernel MAY help...but i use Ziggy or king kernels mostly,so im not sure, but i have noticed better charge time and batt life with the new kernel when i used it

The kernel is 2.6.32.17 as opposed to 2.6.32.15in the old one

I got mine and I noticed it duplicated every icon and widget on every home screen, had to drag/delete one of each. I didn't notice it until the battery widget had two 'needles'. Thought it was a bit laggy



Hopefully this fixes the issue with Ford Sync where the music player starts up every time you break the bluetooth connection with the car. I'd have to manually stop it EVERY time I get in or out.

Are you using the direct DC from a car charger/wall jack or the USB on a computer??

 

[mcaspe1]

I noticed they fixed the calendar edit issue for previously entered events. Good job Google!

 

[kevinb120]

And my music player stopped initiating itself on connect/disconnect of the car's SYNC bluetooth, thank goodness.

Not sure if it is just mine, but since the update I tried the VCast App app and it does not work...either errors out or just sets there forever "loading"... both on 3G and wifi.

 

[mcaspe1]

I had the same issue. Did a battery pull and was all set.

Just because I'm not sure... I have a rooted DINC still running the original Sense that came on the phone (I used UNREVOKED3 originally). If I install the update, I know that I'll lose root, but can I run UNREVOKED3 again to get root back?

 

[azari]

... I guess I'm getting root explorer to shut off this update message. ...

Can you elaborate as to how you do that? This constant reminder is getting annoying...

I can't get Vcast Apps to work either, so you are not alone. Came here to see if there was any info, but your post is all I've seen so far.

So i've had the update for about a day now, and i have noticed a significant increase in charging time/battery usage for me. i usually work 4-5 hour shifts, and i would lose 40-50% battery life, now i leave work in the 80's its really nice.

 

[jasonvancouver]

I have the update notification but I'm rooted and don't plan on updating till I get the all clear. Says it installs slacker radio, vcast apps, and a host of other improvements. Sounds like more bloatware than anything. 18 mb in size

No doubt... I am hoping for some real improvements in problems like caller ID not working after FROYO.

Just installed Virtuous ROM, which takes care of the annoying reminder...

I installed the update and was rooted with stock ROM using Unrevoked3. I found a thread on another forum on how to get root back. Really simple and quick.

I just wanted to know if you can root after the update. I just received a replacement device.
