Root HTC Update Question

[Tejer]

This is a small thing but I am curious if anyone could explain the reasoning behind this. I have figured out that if you clear cache/dalvik on your phone, that will essentially break the OS ability to check for updates via the 'HTC Update' option. It will simply check forever it seems and never actually report anything to you until you just hit the back button. I'm just wondering what causes this?

Clearing the caches shouldn't have any effect, are you on a custom rom?

 

[Rxpert83]

Agreed, that shouldn't happen.

I'm actually on the fully stock rom. I also did add the following changes to my build.prop before that reboot to clear the cache/dalvik. The following are all I added. Would any of these make a difference? These are taken from Tim's Evo tweaks.

Disable Logging
persist.adb.notify=0
ro.config.htc.nocheckin=1
ro.config.nocheckin=1
profiler.force_disable_err_rpt=1
profiler.force_disable_ulog=1
ro.kernel.android.checkjni=0
ro.kernel.checkjni=0
ro.config.nocheckin=1

Performance
pm.sleep_mode=1
ro.ril.disable.power.collapse=1

I believe that without HTC check in being enabled the phone won't be able to properly check for system updates.

No problem, glad it worked out for you. OB
