They also pushed Google Music, and I'm noticing a smart card service running now as well. A few other quirks, not just Wi-Fi calling.

I've got a stock amaze, but if there is anything I can do to help, just let me know. I'm at work, and haven't set up ADB on my work PC, but if anything, just let me know.

Thank you for the quick reply, you just saved me from screwing up the phone first thing in the morning without doing a backup lol. I am sooo pumped about this, because I've been having so much trouble with service in my house!!

nope that zip was for devs t look at

Gotcha - thanks for the clarification.

Glad they finally pushed this out - I have a few customers who've been waiting for this update.

You better take a close look at the zip file.

Within the file is a zip file called firmware.zip.

Within that file updates our recovery and hboot (along with a couple others).

HTC might be trying to take away our root with this. I'm going to wait.

...But why let us unlock the bootloader just to take away root?

In order to install this you would have to re-lock your bootloader, go back to stock (with stock recovery), move this file to /sdcard2/download directory, boot back to hboot and then to recovery. That should work. Then just hope you can root unlock your bootloader again through htcdev so you can get root again.

EDIT: At first glance this will do the following:

Update our hboot, recovery, kernel, mdm9k partition, mdmrcdata partition, pg2fs_spcustom partition, rcdata partition (all from the firmware.zip file), add or change two files to our /system/etc directory, add or change /system/customize/resource directory, add the music2 app and it looks like it changes some 25 drivers (firmware directory).

    by recovery do you mean cwm recovery?

    since it updated hboot, did that update the bootloader too? is it back to locked? if it does this should be the escape for those who are skeptical about voiding warranty on the phone with unlocked bootloader. Kind of interested in that radio update though.

    Everything was updated.

    I edited the android-info file with 1.43.531.3 and it seemed to work. I attached it below. No renaming required!

    Since we cannot flash any radio updates without having s-off (correct me if I'm mistaken though) it might be wise to go back to the stock rom (flashing a ruu should be fine), download the update, flash it so it updates the hboot, radio, etc, then flash this 5.0.2.7 cwm recovery that I attached below, place it on the root of your sdcard and go back to hboot to update the recovery. Then go through and download and install your custom roms all over again. Pain in the butt... but whatever.
