Here it is for those who need it. I needed it to flash my phone back to stock. The update that was pushed out recently would not work on my rooted phone because I was using a UK rom when I rooted it so I need a stock ('merica) AT&T Status rom that no one seemed to have for any reason. I found the latest update on the HTC website and downloaded their installer, and that failed too. It wouldn't authorize... So into the trash InstallShield exe I went a digging and riped this out of the .cab

I used fastboot to flash the userdata.img, system.img, boot.img and recovery.img to my Status. Rebooted and did a factory reset. SUCCESS. :good:

Haven't seen anything new yet.

Just pulled this from HTC's website:

"HTC Status™ for AT&T ROM Update | 05.3.2012
Starting May 3rd 2012, HTC will be rolling out a system update for the HTC Status.

This update will only be available for AT&T HTC Status customers and will be sent to the device over the air. Once the release is ready, users will receive a notification on their device advising them of this update and provide instructions to receive and install it. Users can proactively check for this update by going to Home > Menu> Settings > AT&T Software Update > Check for updates.
As an alternative solution, the system update can be downloaded to a PC and manually applied to the device. See the section at the bottom of these instructions for more information.

This system update includes:

Memory allocation fixes to improve low memory issues
Data throttling fix"

So the device is unrooted again?
Did they really solve the low memory issue?

My device is now unrooted and I don't really see a reason to root it again. I also never ran into the low memory issue so I can not answer that question. I'll pm you the link...

First I used Universal Extractor to extract the files properly from htc_status_mr_update_2.14.502.2_us.exe, because of it being an Install Shield installer. Once it extracted the files in the correct structure I then had to use ZIP Scan on the data1.cab file because Install Shield uses its cab format and very few programs can export them correctly. Once you extract data1.cab you will have all that you need.
