Yes, that occurred to me, just after I made my sarcastic remark...my apologies. Just go into settings, scroll to About Phone, and tap on System Updates

I did that. Its saying system is up to date.

We'll get it figured out for you. Your about phone is saying: 0.6.25.xt92 yet it says your system is up to date?

Besides SafeStrap have you done anthing else to your phone?

[SamuriHL]

That's what I was going to say...except in a much more friendly manner

Not to sound rude, but perhaps you should read the instructions in Post #1 again

ROFLMAO! Yes, it's always highly good practice to read the OP of a thread you're responding to. It saves everyone a lot of headache.

Also if you can take a screenshot of your about phone and post it that'd probably be helpful.

SafeStrap is the only thing ive done.. and rooted.. its on 0.6.25.xt92 and saying "your device is up to date.

I don't recall, exactly, but I think that you may need to fastboot back to stock before doing anything else considering you've had SafeStrap already....perhaps someone else can verify (or debunk)?

Just fastbooted back to stock and update popped up. Thank You guys.

It prevents the OTA updates??? That's odd.

very good! glad you got it! let us know if you need any more help! (and I promise no more sarcastic remarks, lol)

[Narffran]

Now Root and then protect root and you should be good to go!

I was thinking of maybe just opening SS and uninstalling recovery then try the update. But he was quick with the fastboot.

Edit: I'll try it next time I fastboot just to see what happens.

yeah, I think I heard something about others failing due to some change that SafeStrap makes...I don't know much about it, I just recall reading something about it a while back...maybe early in this thread somewhere? with 450 posts it's hard to say lol

lol probably used Matt's utility...that's what I would do

well, first update the binaries, etc BEFORE protecting root...lol

[SamuriHL]

Sorry, I wasn't specific with my question. I can understand the OTA failing as a result of SS being installed. That makes perfect sense. What doesn't make sense is if you're on the unsafe side, the update should still be FOUND and prompt you to install it. Somehow SS is preventing that from happening on this phone??

Sure seems that way. Hash would know better. (Lets get Natty to try it and see what happens)

hmmm....that I do not know. I was already on JB when I first tried SS on the HD...

[SamuriHL]

It would be a good point to be clear on. Cause if SS is indeed preventing the phone from even seeing OTA updates, that's not good. I can totally understand it interfering with installation since it modifies system files to do the hijack. But, it shouldn't break the update check itself. UGH. Something to consider....if someone wants to throw some time testing it or asking Hash about it, I'm sure your community would benefit from the knowledge. Might solve a few headaches down the road.

Well my SS side is empty, I'll give it a go. In this order:

Fastboot - Root - Update root and protect it. install SS then try for the OTA to see what happens.

Did I miss a step?
