Hi,

I have a problem on my HTC wildfire S. It runs Android 2.3.5.

Sometimes i get a push notification that tells me i can update my software. I when download the update wich goes fine. But when i install the update something goes wrong. When the screen comes up with the installation sign, it goes wrong. Suddenly there appears a red warning triangle wich a dark background. When i can't do anything. I have to take the battery out and turn on the phone again. Then it starts up like normal.

I have tried to scan after malware with Norton Mobile Security but can't find anything. I'm sure there are plenty of space and battery. I have tried several times now.

My sense version is 2.1.

If you need additional details let me know.

Sincerly,

Smartmoss

Do a hard reset, then run the update.

I forgot to say that i have tried that a couple of times.

You did a full hard reset setting the phone back to factory defaults and clearing all programs and data? And it's not rooted or unlocked?

[smartmoss]

Yes, i made a full hard reset back to factory settings. Cleared all data and programs. My phone is not rooted or unlocked.

What software update are you being pushed? Who's your carrier? 2.3.5 is Gingerbread. I don't think it's slated to get Ice Cream Sandwich.

How did you get this phone? Brand new from the carrier? Used? 3rd party distributor?

[smartmoss]

I got this phone brand new form carrier. I'm sure it would not get Ice Cream Sandwich. It may sound a bit odd bot actually i cant see what update it is i will write back when i find out.

Contact your carrier. It must be an update specific to their devices and not to Android.

[smartmoss]

Yes, it might be it. I will contact HTC. Thanks for your help.

You bought it from your carrier. They provide the initial warranty and must be pushing an update. HTC isn't going to know what that is.
