Software Update Doesn't Work - Now getting software error message

The software update still doesn't work.  Now when I get the red triangle with the red exclamation point, when I start to remove the back of the phone I get an orange error message that takes up most of the screen.  At the end of the message it says that there is a problem with the ota__.zip package.  Then it gives me the option of rebooting.
Does anyone know if/when this software problem will be fixed?
I would definitely not recommend this phone to anyone.  Phone doesn't work, VZ and HTC can't fix the problem. 
Thanks.

It is not my problem!!  First of all, I don't ask for the download to start.  It starts on its own, several times a day.  Second, I use WiFi connection because 4G rarely works.
Third, I did everything Verizon said to do - I went to a local VZ Wireless store where they did a factory reset.  Then they tried the download - it took 3 hours to download and then the update failed.
Up until today the phone itself (not me) tried to download and apply the update several times per day.  Each time it fails.  The screen displays a black background with a red triangle with a red exclamation point through it.  Up until today I had to remove the back of the phone and then remove and replace the battery to unlock the phone.
Today when I started to remove the back of the phone the orange error messages appeared as stated in my original post.
Verizon also recommended talking to HTC which I did and they had no idea what the problem was.
Verizon also told me that if the update still failed after the factory reset they would send me a new phone.  I said okay but they sent me a used phone instead (factory refurbished).  They said they should not have told me they would send me a new phone.  Then they said that when I return the phone if it gets lost then Verizon will bill me for the phone and I will have to get the money back from Fedex.  Outrageous!  Verizon didn't send me the phone they said they would and then said I would be billed for the cost of the phone if Fedex lost it.  I have never experienced such poor "customer service"  (or should I say customer unservice).
I prefer Android and Microsoft Windows to anything Apple but I am seriously considering getting an iphone since this phone doesn't work and isn't supported.

  • Have updated InDesign CC, but now get an error message for Font Manager.InDesignPlugin

    I have updated recently updated InDesign CC, but now I get this error when I try to open a document that was working fine yesterday:
    Cannot load Adobe InDesign CC because it requires version 9.1 or later of the Font Manager.InDesignPlugin plug-in. Please contact vendor for compatible version of Font Manager.InDesignPlugin.
    Where can I find this plugin (for Mac)?

    Thanks Peter, just saw your reply now, but that night I did uninstall and reinstall ID; in the morning did the ole shutdown - rest - command+option+p+r on start up as an added precaution and then it worked fine for the rest of the week.
    Also, I got a new computer last week. The changeover to the new mac seeeeeemed to be fine...
    However, I think Adobe suffers from Monday-itis as today I can't open any programmes as I get the attached message box when I try to  sign in to Creative Cloud. Will make this it's own post too.

  • After trying 8-10 different files over that many days or more, the program still doesn't work.  Get the error message, file to large, unable to complete.  What does this program do?  Nothing as far as I can see.

    I notice many of us seem to have the same problem, does anyone ever answer our questions online?
    We paid to use this program, we would not have bought the program unless we had a use for it.  I thought this would be much faster than OCR, but I am finding that it is worthless unless it works and so far that isn't happening.

    Hi itsjudyj,
    Can you please tell me a bit more about the files that you're converting? How large are they (there's a 100MB file-size limit), and are they text, images, or both? File size or complexity can cause the ExportPDF service to time out before it can process the files.
    Other things to check:
    Clear the browser cache and try again.
    Make sure that you're using a supported web browser (http://www.adobe.com/acom/systemreqs/)
    Try a different browser
    Please let us know how it goes.
    Best,

  • Installer & software update all not working now along with safari & itunes

    hi all
    I've posted this under the safari beta for mac area (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1148867&tstart=0) as well but as it relates to several issues, i wanted to put it here and see if anyone here at any ideas.
    yesterday i installed the new version of itunes and safari 3 beta. as i was half way through the safari installation i lost my wireless connection and had to then force quit the process. since then, my itunes, safari and software update and installer programs are not working.
    i've tried downloading previous versions of everything but when i go to install them the installer appears and then dissapears just as quickly. on top of that when i click on itunes from the dock, it bounces like it is about to load up and then stops and doesn't. finally, when i go to click on software update from System Preferences, I get an error message "Preferences Error, Could not load Software Update".
    this includes my trying to download and install the mac osx 10.4.10 combined update to 'fix' everything but as mentioned above the installer appears for a second and then dissapears again without doing anything.
    over to you all for any and all help.
    thanks in advance

    Any help would be greatly appreciated because whilst i am getting by using firefox, my little girls songs are on itunes and i need to get into them (anyone with kids will understand my pain).
    thanks

    If you downloaded the update from the phone, and using an older version of iTunes, yes that should do it.

  • I am trying to update itunes software to 10.5 but I get an error message saying to try manually installing and I try that and it still doesn't work, Help!!

    I am trying to update itunes software to 10.5 but I get an error message saying to try manually installing, HELP!!!

    With the Error 2, let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
    Does it install properly for you?
    If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

  • Installed itunes update 10.5.0.142 and now get the error message "Disc Burner or Software Not Found" when trying to burn playlist to disc.

    Installed itunes update 10.5.0.142 and now get the error message "Disc Burner or Software Not Found" when trying to burn playlist to disc.  Windows 7

    Hello queenabs,
    It sounds like you are trying to burn a playlist to a disc in iTunes, but you are getting the error, "disc burner or software not found."  I found a couple of resources that I think might help with an error like this.
    I recommend starting with the steps in this article:
    iTunes for Windows: Optical drive is no longer recognized, or "Disc burner or software not found" alert after install
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2308
    If you are still having trouble with burning a disc after following the steps in that article, I recommend following the steps in this article:
    iTunes for Windows: Additional troubleshooting tips for burning issues

    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

  • After updating to itunes 10 i now get an error message saying there is a problem with the windows insaller package - I have tried all the suggestions but nothing works for me - have I lost all my itunes forever?

    After updating to itunes 10 I now get an error message that says there is a problem with the windows installer package. I have tried all the things that others suggested but cannot download itunes at all now. Have I lost itunes forever?

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) (not for XP) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

  • I recently tried to update iTunes to 11.1, and am now getting an error message "This application has failed to start because MSVCR80.d11 was not found."  I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes multiple times.  Am running Windows XP Svc Pack 3.  help

    I recently tried to update iTunes to 11.1, and am now getting an error message "This application has failed to start because MSVCR80.dll was not found.  Reinstalling the application may fix this problem."  I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes several times with no success.  I am running Windows XP Svc Pack 3.  Help please.

    Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.
