Software update 1.96.709.5 for Taiwanese version - HTC 10 Questions & Answers

Hi guys,
I'm posting to let you know that today my HTC 10 Taiwanese (stock and unlocked) received the update version 1.96.709.5 (456,99 MB) with the following improvements:
1) Support for VoLTE
2) Support for Wifi calling
3) Google Security Update (September 1)
4) System and Camera enhancements
I though it was Nougat but when I saw the size I realized it's not
Anyway an update is always welcome for me.

Does this update fix the "video flickering issue" in low light?

Hi,
I cannot find menu to enable VoLTE and WiFi calling features after updated to this version.
Did you find this feature on "setting/call/....??

Me too! Despite it's indicated in the update there's no "Enhanced call service" in Call settings.
Maybe these options are shown only if you have a compatible SIM card or carrier? It's a guess, I don't know

i am using tw set 64gb, no updates so far...is there something wrong with my fone?

VoTE or WiFi Calling probably only activate if you have a special Taiwan Carrier.
It's not showing up for me either in Switzerland.
Anyone here in Taiwan with working VoLTE or WiFi Calling?

New update 1.98. 709.5
New update today. Still no VoLTE or WiFi calling in calls menu.

yes these feature only appear if you have a Taiwanese carrier. I have a sim card for Chunghwa Telecom and T-mobile. As soon as I insert the T-Mobile sim card, the phone restarts and these settings goes away.

Flash the region specific firmware to get volte, I got a CID_622 (HK specific), if I switch to another other firmware then volte wil gone.
look forward someone able to combine all of them in a custom rom.

Nothing new with fm radio function actually activated?

When can we expect a taiwanee version to taste nougat 7.0 anybody?

[Q] check model type / add phone recording

I recently purchased in Hong Kong a LG G3 of whom I am very satisfied.
I have already rooted it.
I have 3 questions:
1. how can I check which model do I own? (D850? D851? D855?)
2. I have rooted it, but what will happen when I do the next official OTA upgrade? Will I lose the rooting?
3. MISSING feature: the only feature I miss (from my previous device) is the possibility to record a phone call. Is there a possibility, via a kernel or a specific apk, to restore this capability? Or do I need to flash a custom ROM (I wish not) ?
Thank you
Saulo
I have one more question:
I am currently in China. I am sure that China Unicom is currently using TD LTE (borrowing the network from China Mobile), since the deployment of their own FD LTE will start, at least in my area, in January 2015. How can then my LG G3 show the 4G icon in the top bar?
Does LG G3 have TD LTE embedded in the Ericsson LTE modem?
By contrast, my Samsung Note 4 SM-910C (which has several FD LTE bands but NOT TD LTE) is showing H+ (WCDMA) in the top bar, under the same condition, same SIM card, etc.
Thanks
Saulo
Hi all
Who can help this man?
I also want to know how to check the proper model number (D850....)
Maybe.... Settings --> Phone Information --> Hardware Information --> First entry??
If you rooted your phone and you install an OTA Update, the root is gone. That was my experience. But I saw some tutorials where other people still have root access. Nevermind... you can root with easily after your OTA Update.

1- By adding your IMEI to the end of this link in your browser you can check your model: csmg.lgmobile(dot)com:9002/csmg/b2c/client/auth_model_check2.jsp?esn=
2- AFAIK, for the OTA updates it's more convenient to flash a stock rom to unroot and then rooting again after OTA update
3- There may be some apps allowing this feature, however I don't use any
ACR works for call record in
IF you don't want to upgrade to 5.0 yet and prefer staying on 4.4, install xposed and G3 tweaksbox, it unlocks the built-in ability to record (and auto record) all calls.
Hi molius. Do you mean that with 5.0 we do have by default the phone call recording feature? And. By the way, do you know when version 5.0 can be installed? Will it be OTA ?

It's recommended not to update OTA if you are rooted, and want to stay rooted as it may cause instability. More information on that and how to update safely here http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/psa-stop-taking-ota-updates-update-t2909412

I am from india and i received the updates on 2nd jan, you can manually check for the update in the setting/about phone.
Today (Jan 8, 2015) I've received the same update ! The Update size is exactly 307.86MB.
I was happy to see a Software update notification as I'm expecting Lollipop Update to my D820, but it is't Lollipop update, it is a update for existing Android KitKat 4.4.4.
Let's hope Lollipop will be our next update

There's no official word from HTC for lollipop update on desire 820.
Hope it will be updated because its run on 64bit and lollipop is for 64bit.
So according to this hope it will definitely update to lollipop.
Otherwise there is no need for 64bit on this device because kitkat is running on 32bit only.

+1. i posted here about this.
has anyone successfully rooted and installed custom recovery on htc desire 820 dual-sim (D820u)?
is D820t dual sim? how is it different from D820u? somebody please upload screenshots of Phone Identity and Software Info.
D820u dual china model.
About this procedure:
1. If phone is rooted with custom recovery, its not possible install ota but can it check and find it?
2. While restoring stock recovery, debug usb seting must be enabled,fastboot setting disabled. Then, phone should enter in fastboot mode also, via adb.
# edit :Restored to stock 1.21.1405.1 successfully..

Seems you are using VPN to receive the update. Which VPN are you using? What is your / the VPN location?
Which screen protector You use? Looks good, any specs or link? I'm in Germany, still no update for eu version.
Seems like only the Motorola employees are getting the update. above photos are familiar to me. Seen somewhere in Facebook page of Moto.

What network are you on?
The most important question, were you guys able to keep root, or install root after updating to Nougat? Thanks!
Yeah, with unlocked bootloader it's easy, just flash a zip in TWRP
Thank you Lonixlon, have you personally updated your X Force while having TWRP? I had a problem with installing OTA security patch as phone booted directly to TWRP. Do you know any workaround for that?
can anyone help this guy to share OTA file?
My idea, maybe stupid and wrong - Update arrives depending on the CID of the phone.
The version of the system says "retapac", which stands for "Retail Asia Pacific" - a retail version of the phone for Asia and the Pacific.
But I do not understand what is written in "On the phone" before upgrading to NUGA. Take on incomprehensible things, mismatches, in the version of Android, the Baseband version, the system version and the build number. In the build number is very old version of the system mpks24.78-8-12, in the version of the system is the latest version of the system with the upgrade to 6.0.1, but here the old version 6.0 and the old modem.
I have a lot of questions without answers ...

Well, may I express my opinion here too. I have an XT1581 Kinzie from China, it came with Lollipop 5.1.1. Workling perfect.
I go and update it to MM 6.0 using a Mexican or LKatin America rom, I keep the modem for the baseband from the Lollipop 5.1.1 Chinese rom, everything works almost better than before, not a single issue.
Now,m I tried to update it to Nougat 7 following the Google+ guide, a nightmare, although an enjoyable one!
First, I have only one sim working, no wif. Try anoth system, now I have two sims OK but still no wifi.
At the end, after many trials, I went back to my old MM 6.0 LAt rom, backed using TWRP, and the system is back to normal with everything working OK.
Did you ask me if I'm going to change? Nope, I'm happy the way things are, unless an official Nougat 7 ir 7.1.1 rom comes by, not loosing other time.
I agreemthere is a lot of confusion between the various roms and regions.
This news about the update and the video is very similar to the fake... Just why from such an ordinary case as an update do such a stupid circus?
not yet arrived in Indian version XT1580
neither for reteu.retfr
I have moto x play, is that mean android nougat not so far from us...??

VoLTE setting enabled but seems to not work

I am running the latest leedroid currently but I have had the same issue on stock. So how can I get VoLTE enabled? I have heard the clarity of VoLTE on my Nexus 6P in the past so I know it isn't enabled. I just want that clearness again.

If you are in the united states, volte will only work on stock or stock based Roms. It has to do with the system partition being modified. Only reason stock based roms have volte is because all mods are managed by magisk, which is what they call "systemless".

VoLTE does not work on LeeDrOiD Oreo for any of the US Carriers. Regarding the comment made in a previous reply, VoLTE worked just fine on the HTC10 Viper Nougat ROM.
I know for a fact that HTC released Oreo for the 10 in early January, pulled it, and then re-released it a few weeks later. Why? I'm not sure. I do know that that the firmware available from the link provided in the LeeDrOiD ROM gets you firmware dated January 3rd, 2018, which is from the first release. I haven't been able to find the firmware from the late January release, or even if it is the same or not.
I'm currently researching how to revert to stock and to take the update directly from HTC, see if it works on their version, and if it does, remain stock. I asked about the issue on the LeeDeOiD page, and got no answers what so ever. As a matter of fact. several people asked and no one got an answer.
I am not sure if this is a ROM issue, or a firmware issue. You say you have a WWE version phone, with WWE version firmware? I have US Unlocked with 3.16.617.2 9.0 Not only does my VoLTE not work, but I lost the call waiting and call forwarding features as well.
I'm thinking volte won't work for awhile until Oreo has a few updates and HTC can get their crap in control and the devs can work better with what HTC gives us. The only reason we are this far is because HTC gave us the kernel source and the devs are trying their hardest with it. They are having many other difficulties with aosp. I'm sure stock based ROMs will get smoother and work better. But for now, we will have to wait

Noob Question about note 10+ version

Hi everyone hope you're doing excellent I bought a note 10 plus on november last year suddenly I stopped receiving OTA updates this have at&t logos but its unlocked already I work at an airline and I'm not using at&t sim card since I bought the phone and even with my country's sim card I received ota updates.
I was wondering if its possible to flash it to android 10 currently the phone is running android 9 but when I connect it to the pc smart switch says phone is up to date, same happens when I verify software updates from the phone.
Baseband version: N975USQU1ASGO
My questions are:
- Can I flash the phone using any of the android 10 firmwares in the forum? or do I have to make sure it will be compatible with some specific versions?
- If I flash the phone it will it still be unlocked?
thank you.
Don't know.
I would leave it on Pie; stable, fast and well behaved.
Scope storage and the trouble it may cause hasn't been dragged out into the sunlight yet... plus the older apks it probably will break that have no replacement.
If you do load Q let us know what you think.

Possible, yes ... if it's desirable only you can determine after acknowledging de pros and cons of the upgrade. As @blackhawk pointed out, there are some caveats to be considered. Nevertheless please be advised that this is your decision and none here can be responsible for mistakes or misfortunes that may occur. It's all on you.

If these are real issues, I would suggest tackling them with the upgrade and if not solved, even downgrade back.

The above question has more than an answer:
a) The firmwares available in the forum are for rooted devices so the answer is NO. None firmware available here is fitted for you present setup (the "but" comes later)
b) Yep ... you have to keep compatibility of your hardware with the firmware you flash. Your devide is a N975U so you shall restrict only for the respective family.
And now comes the "but" ...
The firmwares in the below list shall fit your hardware. They are official Samsung releases for the hardware you've mentioned.

The above list was filtered only with USA (No carrier) options because, as you've said, it's unlocked.
The complete list is @ https://www.sammobile.com/samsung/galaxy-note-10-plus/firmware/#SM-N975U and it contains the carrier locked ones too.
You will have to search and read about "flashing with odin". To speed up the download use Samfirm after reading some howtos about it too ... https://samfirmtool.com/
