everything is smoother and faster. New software for camera and album. The lock screen works fine for me. My videos however has disappeared after the update. Maybe a backup is a good idea before you update. Also everything looks a bit paler in the home screens.
I also have to say, Wow! Y'all weren't nervous downloading a whopping 228mb update!!?
Man, how long did that take?
I bet there were some users that weren't prepared for that (battery not being fully charged) that died during this update, probably kinda frying their phones somewhat.
That's a big update, I can only Verizon in the U.S. will give us this but, that's a large file there...
Congrats y'all!!!

Reason: 228mb
Hi, I was wondering. When i get a text message, it appears in large on my lockscreen. But how can i open it instantly? Or drag.. to open it, instead of going to messages first and then select te received text?
(i'm not from an english speaking country so you might have some trouble understanding my problem.)
In India ... got my update on Dec. 13. No issues with install. So far I have just noticed some cosmetic UI changes (nothing exceptional) for what is supposedly HTC Sense 3.0, new (better) threaded SMS view. Haven't noticed any changes in power consumption profile.
Would have liked them to fix the Automatic Brightness setting to be more intelligent, right now I think that automatic brightness is too high for this SLCD screen for lasting a full day on battery. I have it set to about 25% manually, is enough for most lighting situations and my phone easily lasts one full day of use.

Try the brightness widget by curvefish & put it on your main homescreen. It's what I use. You can see the screen at night indoors with it on 0% & still see it. I think it allows setting the brightness lower than by doing it in the phone settings...

With Wi-Fi it was not so bad. Took me around 5 minutes when I did the upgrade at home. Installation will check your battery status and will not continue unless battery level is at 35% or more.

From India, and yet to get this update :(
Hi ashvarma, you got this OTA on 13th this month? I am from India too (B'lore) and haven't received it yet. Has it got anything to do with the network provider that I am on?
I have been facing the dreaded com.android.phone Force Close issue ever since I upgraded my HTC IncS to Gingerbread and I am hoping this update will help me get rid of it. (anyone else facing the same here?)
Thanks!

If your phone was purchased unbranded (by carrier) in open market, then software upgrades do not depend on the carrier.
It depends on model number and physical location (country). My model is S710E.
What is yours?
The other thing is that automatic software upgrade notification has never worked for me. I had to check manually and then found this one.

Hi ashvarma, My HTC Incredible S is also S710E, and I am also from Bangalore. I purchased this in June 2011 unbranded (by carrier) in open market through an HTC authorized Dealer but however I am unable to get this update OTA. Please suggest how you got this updtae manually? I am also eager like the other INC S users to see the update on my beauty

Well, I have the same IncS; I did not know that we get models other than S710E here in India
And yeah, like Jerry1982, I bought mine in June this year, unbranded, from an authorized dealer here in Bangalore, and got the OTA for 2.3.3 in the first week of July. I have been checking for software updates manually ever since I saw your reply.
Shashidharsm: it is incorrect for anyone to assume that the other person has bought the phone in India or is a particular model as a result. For example, I bought mine in US, and was shipped to US from Hong Kong.
Jerry1982: I simply did "Check Now" in Software Updates. There is no magic there .

hi Ashvarma, this is precisely what I have been doing and I am quite a prolific user of Android phones, so I am aware that there is no "Magic" needed .
What I wanted to know was that did anyone in India get the update yet? If so, was it OTA or the did they get the ROM. I found original HTC ROM for HTC Inc S in one of the forums for 2.3.5 with Sense 3.0, but the problem is that they were Asia & WWE ROM and these are not accepted for the one we brought in India and it gives error:
ERROR [131]: CUSTOMER ID ERROR: basically meaning that the Model ID and Language ID are incompatible with this model of Android phone.
So I am looking around for help to see if any one can help
I removed and replaced the battery. I also tried started in safe mode (POWER+VOL DOWN) but phone didn't turn on . and PC not recognized phone when I connected

Hi, you have just saying that found the original HTC ROM for HTC IS which for Asia, could you please inform me where you get it from and what is the link? Thank you so much!! I'm from Malaysia and I did not get the update until today..what's wrong with HTC SEA...

yeah - so did my videos - pst gone - øv ;-) - And some themes/scenes were gone after the update. One of them I really liked and actually used called something like "tree" with these treepanels - simply wioed out and replaced with the ordinary HTC-dark panels . So yes -backup next time / next system-update. But this was my first and I had no idea. But I wonder why and where my videos did go.....

Jimmy from KL, Malaysia. Just got OTA last night with smooth upgrade. After that, the widget get a few times and found that you need to update the widget via HTC club.
Pros: No missing video or photo. Nice enhancement in camera under setting with Geo-tag n auto enhancement.
Must faster and responsive to move things around.
Cons: Annoying preview photo show on top left corner during shooting. Anyone know how to turn this off or hide it?
Longer boot up time (about 2 mins) compare to 2.3.3
My baterry status now showing'!' icon and it only 8 months long ago. Did anyone face this? Time to get new batt?
my bat not show the sign after update..so maybe you need the new battery.ahakz..
i found 1 problem..if you want to upload photo from gallery using HTC sense,when to want to make tag/description suddenly gallery freeze and error ' Gallery has stopped unexpectedly ' ..
I just got notified to update in Australia, its finished downloading, and powered off, then the progression bar filled completely once, and then it started again. Its been stuck on the same point for at lease 1 and a half hours now (no exaggeration), the screen and phone is extremely hot..
Its also on charge, but not notification light is on either...

THanks in advance
Same thing happened to me as well.
Unplug the charge, pull off the back cover and pull out the battery.
Put it back in and power on, your phone will be fine!

Ppl i am new here and i am new to android as such. i happened to go through many forums and found that although incredible s has a front camera and a preloaded google talk application, it does not support google talk's video chat. What i wanted to know was if an update of the android 2.3.5 help in getting the video chat working with google talk?

Must be something wrong with the AU update.
I updated 2 IncS OTA yesterday - one is fine the other bricked with the same symptoms! Nothing solved the problem so back to Optus who've sent it off "for repair". That'll be a t least 2 weeks I reckon.
Reduced to using an old Nokia E71 which has far better reception and battery life - but no fun to use!
Hello guys. I want to ask a question. My phone battery dried out during the installation of Android 2.3.5 update, then I can't install it again. I try to go Setting >> About Phone>> Software Updates to check for the update again, but it show my phone is up to date. What can I do to get a new update?? Anyone can help?? TQ

I have same problem like you.
if find any solution tell to me plz.
my phone turned off for 3 weeks.
Swapped my phone today for another Incredible S since the other one had a couple of niggles that bothered me. Got my new one today and it came with 2.3 out of the box and right away it asked me to update to 2.3.5. Everything seems awesome on it.
Just a question though; does the update install while on wifi or does it just download the update over wifi and then install the update from the phone, not using the internet?
Wasn't sure what it was doing.
But yeah, I'm in the UK, and the installation was fine. I had mine plugged in on charge (since the phone was brand new) and 2.3.5 installed perfectly, touch wood.
