I have a Droid Eris that I loaded a leaked 2.1 rom onto.
If I want to put the official 2.1 on there, what do I need to do?
Can I just put a custom one on?
Please help, thank you for your time.
official has not been released yet...

hey I recently just bought a new htc hero rooted on v1.6
Since 1.6 is kinda out of date now so I was planning to update the software via the official site to 2.1 as I dont have the technical experience to flash a rom myself.
But my question is can update via the official installer thingy? or if my phone if rooted do i HAVE to use the rom flashing method?
I just needed to know just in case i completely mess up the phone
Thx.

HTC hasn't released the 2.1 update for the Hero yet,... We hope to get it by the start of next month.
There are however, ports of the leaked CDMA 2.1 update available to try out in the development section.
Once the update has been officially released, I would suggest waiting for a rooted version to be posted here on XDA rather than installing it from HTC themselves as the official update may close access to root in future.
and fwiw: you are on android1.5, not 1.6.
can i downgrade 2.1 do 1.5?
and where to find 1.5 android os
To download from a 2.1 custom rom to a stock 1.5 rom simply download a new rom here:
http://www.htc.com/uk/supportdownloadlist.aspx?p_id=283&act=sd&cat=all
If your on a generic phone choose the last one in the list. You will be asked to input your serial number, this is to ensure you get the right rom for your phone.
This will revert your phone back to the Sep 11 2009 update (1.5).

you can't and you lost the root
i wait the official eclair rotted by our chefs
ok...tks...will wait for the rooters to crack it open
It may be a long wait or never that the bootloader gets unlocked on the 2.1 RUU.
HTC have really tried to lock that rom down. Once you have root access its always best to stick to custom roms, the warning was on this site for months now.
I just revert my hero from 2.1 update 1 to stoc 1.5 hero UK JUSt by flashing with the old stock rom.
this is nice!
Hi there,
I recently used the "eugene" froyo update on my new unlocked samsung vibrant from t-mobile. it still lags sometimes and i was kinda hoping to find a way to make it faster.
I don't know if the eugene froyo update rooted my phone or not. under firmware version it says 2.2 and build number says FROYO.UVJK2. I don't know what the build number means either.
I wanted to downgrade from this 2.2 version back to 2.1 cuz i wanted to wait for the original release of 2.2, but i couldnt find a way to downgrade. I want to make the phone faster if possible, that is why i am posting this.
If anyone could help or give me a solution, please let me know.
Thank you very much.
use Odin and flash original 2.1 firmware.
all instructions are in the vibrant bible.
I am using Nero V3 currently. I disabled voodoo and lagfix before moving into official froyo from t-mobile.
1. is there anything else to do before updating to the official froyo?
2. is there a different way that i must follow when updating ROM to official version from custom ROM?
3. if i update to official froyo, would this relock the device so i have to reunlock it?
4. is it possible to flash kernel from official froyo??
help me~~

as far as i know....someone correct me if im wrong but you need to first odin back to stock 2.1 first then do the upgrade....

worked great for me
I played with this yesterday (official 2.2) Going from MacnutR14. Samsung Kies mini wouldnt acknowledge my phone unless I was running stock Ji6.
Test it out. I had ji6 handy from when the OTA update didnt take.
Hi all
I have a unlocked bootloader Atrix, within GB 2.3.4 4.5.91 ATT us, N_01.86.00R, and 2.6.32.9 installed. It works but I have so many trouble with it.
Can I safetly go back to Motorola Software Update, and get officially once again my Orange French Stock Froyo 2.2!?
(any real "YES" will be greatly appreciated!!)

Don't do this before someone else says it's okay, because I'm not totally sure, but you should be able to SBF flash your device back to original everything.
Thank you. In fact I don't want to use any more other SBF file, but just get my stock directly from Motorola Software Update!!
I hope I'm not too late.
DO NOT DOWNGRADE!!
You'll get yourself a hard brick. Seriously, it's stickied all over the forum.
You cannot use SBF, you cannot use Motorola Software Updater.
I repeat, YOU CANNOT DOWNGRADE FROM 4.5.91 YOU WILL BRICK YOUR PHONE
Do as you please, but you have been warned.
So no way to get back? So bad...
Can I at least flash back with Recovery to a retail Froyo 2.2?
Am I no more allowed to official stock, or in future I'll be able to get get Motorola's official update?

By stock I thought you meant the newest firmware stock! my bad. Yes, DO NOT SBF DOWNGRADE. You WILL brick.
Use fruitcake if you want froyo but I have no clue if theres a fruitcake france release. You may be SOL here.

read post 2 by shaydar.. maybe this could help, just try download the newer sbf (2.3.4) then desbf it..
do not use froyo, that the best method i know for now
Thank you everybody for your cautions!!!
I didn't get back to stock 2.2. I installed this pretty CM7 and I'm quiet satisfied.
But I want to know: with my atrix unlocked with RDSLite + CM7 installed, am I allowed one day to get official 2.3 or Ice Cream with Motorola Updater Software when Motorola will make it happens!??
