Help I Have Leak ICS 3.14.605.5 710RD, Can I Get .12 OTA?

Hi all! This is literally and first post ever and unfortunately a complete noob question!

About a week ago, I downloaded from Android Police the 3.14.605.5 710RD ICS leak. BEFORE I used this, I was and still am 1000% stock from the factory, never rooted/unlocked/etc. I added the zip to my SD card root, ran it, etc. I am now running that build of ICS, still factory "stock", no root/unlock/etc.

I am currently downloading from Android Police again, this time the FINAL OTA 3.14.605.12 ICS build, my question is, if I install and flash this download the same way as the .5 build, is this the same build that non flash users will be downloading directly on their phone when they run a "Check for Software Updates" and are notified that ICS is available?

If not, or if I want to download it OTA and not flash, how can I accomplish that? I have run a check for updates and it keeps telling me there is nothing available. Thanks everyone!
 
Thank you very much for your help! I know this is a long time off and all, but IF the Rezound were to ever see Jelly Bean released on it, I am assuming I would have to continue to download all RUU files from here on out and Flash correct? Just under the assumption that since I flashed once, I can never get OTA updates again? Unless I get a warranty or insurance replacement I would assume

I think if you flash the RUU then you should get any [possible] future updates.

That makes sense though, I already HAVE ICS technically, its just a different build. That would be like getting a leak copy of Windows 7 and when the final version releases, Windows Updates comes up telling you "Would you like to download the final version of Windows 7?"...I would have to go and obtain it and replace it. When and if JB comes out on Rezound, being a new OS, im sure it would tell me to download. Great well I have the .12 build downloading still, hopefully I will have a winner here! Thanks again!

Didn't see this post as I asked the same question in another post.. I'm like the above poster here. Seems like I'll have to download the RUU and go through the same process as I did with the .10 leak last week.

I am not sure about you, but I was about 1 week shy of this releasing and couldnt take the issues with Gingerbread anymore so I made the leap. Today when I was surfing around Google in search of a way to get the OTA update, I started sweating and I read nothing but bad news haha

I'm sure you know where to find it, but if you need the link for .12, here it is :)

Thanks.

I just downloaded the leak last week also. Figured it was going to be a while before it came out and was tired of waiting as well.

Is anyone else downloading the .12 leak and it's taking hours to download? I'm on hour 2 out of 3 and my wifi is usually lightning fast.

Used mirror 3. Took about 11 minutes. After installing on my ad card powering down then holding volume down and power.nothing happens. No matter how long I hold them. Eventually let go and powers up as usual. What gives?

Sometimes it seems like you have to hold the power down button in just the right location or else the phone doesn't seem to want to launch into the setup screen. Had to do it myself a couple of times with the .12 file.

When I installed the .10 leak last week, someone said pull the battery out, then put it back in. Hold down volume button and then press down on the power button. It seems to work better.

Fast boot was the checked. Unchecked that and done. It's powering up now. Thanks.

If you have the leak installed, is there a stock GB RUU that can be ran so that we can receive the OTA update? Thanks.

If you have installed the leak, then there is no going backwards... (it's allot of work!)... Just forward...

You are better off downloading the .12 RUU and installing...

At least that way you will get future OTA's.

I installed the RUU from mid May and now when I'm trying to install the .12 update the bootloader program tells me I'm missing or dont have the correct required files in my PH98IMG.zip file. It's hard to list them all since the screen is so fast, but it's looking for PH98dia.nbh among others. Help! Any ideas? Thanks!

I should note that I was fully stock when I did the first update and I haven't done any modifications.

Files missing or incorrect:
PH98Diag.nbh
PH98IMG.ZIP
PH98IMG.TAR
PH98IMG.AES
PH98IMG.ENC

Did the install just abort? The reason I ask is that I ran the .12 RUU on top of the .10 RUU and did get some missing files errors. I just ignored it and let it run on and it installed fine (so far...)

FWIW

I have the .10 lean and I installed the .12 leak twice and it just brought me to the screen asking to choose fastboot, reboot, recovery, etc each time. When I finally booted the phone I am still on .10? Can it not be installed over .10?


I had this happen too and realized I did not have a the full download. The file was 258mg and not the 612mg file. Once I had the right file, it worked fine.
