ICS updated, no hack nor rom

[anon(631531)]

I have used Dolphin/Dolphin HD for almost two years now as my default browser. Chrome def beats Dolphin. Just for the sheer sync ability of Chrome. As long as you are logged into Chrome on your computer and phone, then your tabs on the computer are visible on the phone. Also you can access your bookmarks from computer and from your mobile. Chrome will keep them separate. So far I love it.

Has anyone who applied the update had less battery life? Also since the update if my phone powers off when it powers back on it goes through part of the update process. Anyone else having this issue?

I've had no problems with the new update, and my battery life has improved. I get through the whole day, moderate usage, and i'm at about 30%.

Type this on your phone, EXACTLY: *#*#682#*#*

After you hit the last character, just let the phone do it's thing. You will get Android version 4.0.3, and HTC Sense version 3.6 Enjoy!

Is your Vivid rooted, or has it ever been rooted?

From reading XDA it seems that code has been turned off since Thursday/Friday of last week.

Well, i guess you guys missed the boat on this one. I believe the new "official" upgrade should be coming out soon.

Same here. Downloaded this update and now what do you do with it. do you call it update.zip and put it in the root?

I am on a stock rom. Have never rooted this one.

You won't be able to do squat with that file unless you're rooted.

There is a complicated way to use that where you load it onto your SD card and restart your phone in a specific mode (I've never done it, but you can look here for instructions).

I updated using an RUU file, which executes on your PC. I found it much easier (although not fool proof, upgrade at your own risk.) Google:
RUU_HOLIDAY_ICS_35_S_CINGULAR_3.26.502.52.zip to find the RUU file.

Nope, brand new phone (well, 2 weeks ago).

I believe that AT&T shut down that link. Sorry.

Oh well. I'll live.

Pretty sure at least.

What I ended up doing was downloading the RUU_HOLIDAY_ICS_35_S_CINGULAR_3.26.502.52 and installed with NO problems. I installed it on a stock non rooted stock vivid.
I have attached some screen shots

Must say I love the new update. Runs much smoother scrolling pages and moving around.

Also has the Face Unlock which is nice.

Seems not to connect to my 3G Micro cell anymore but thats ok

Did u lost all your data?

Why does everyone think the *#*#682#*#* code doesn't work? I did it about 10 minutes ago, working fine. Make sure you're only Wifi. It gave no indication of working with wifi off, but when I connected to wifi and tried again it started within ~15 seconds.

Thanks. I'll have to try this when I get home later.

Yes its just like doing a restore. Just use htc sync to back up your data or how ever you back up your data.

But it only deletes whats on the phone. The memory card was safe.
