Hi yall, so I just found out that verizon is pushing out an official froyo build ota on the 21st, tomorrow. But the thing is, My phone is already running under DL30 rom rooted and prefering not to install the new update. Not that I don't want to experience a new froyo, it's just because I'm too lazy to go back all the way to 2.1 then de-root the phone........ ehhhhhh........ Now my question is, is there a way for me to disable the automatic update? p.s.Last time when verizon pushed out an update ota, my phone would just constantly turn on and off) Thank you guys!
If you're on DL30 I doubt you'd be able to receive the ota even if you wanted to.
And, in the future, please post your questions in the Q&A section.

are there any differences between the "official" froyo and the froyo we have all been using previously (I do know it has been mes source..just wondering if its worth moving to the official upgrade).
Thanks.
Adryn has posted a debinged version of the new ed01 official release in the dev section.

Meh, from what I have tested for adryn and others the mes source stuff handles the same, at least kernel wise. The rom ec01 leak seemed to run pretty well, I'm fixing to flash ED01 and try it

So, wanted to know if there is a leaked Froyo update/Rom for the North American Vibrants? Most of the Froyo updates I have found seem to be for the i9000 model and not the t959 model! I would like the offical update but God only knows when thats going to come out! Im running Rooted Stock Rom with JI6 update and OCLF too. Sorry if this question has been asked a million times before. Any help would be great.thanks a million!

Trying to stay as close a to stock Rom as possible. Looking for a very basic froyo update/Rom as possible and would be easy to switch back to stock without to much trouble. Come to think of it.any One Click Froyo updates out there for the Vibrant T959 yet? Thanks again!

Don't know how new or experienced you are with flashing ROMs. If you're new, you will want to check out:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=771111
and
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=732458
to help you come up to speed on your options and overall approaches.
Remember, if you flash from 2.2 back to 2.1 (which is really the only "official" stock available at the moment) you will need to flash an entire ROM or Kernal. Just performing a nandroid recovery won't work and will softbrick your phone (requiring you to use ODIN to fix it).
There are about 4 or 5 2.2-based ROMS in the Developers section. Check one or more of them out.
If you are cautious, then you might want to avoid the Overclocked, Undervolted, or Lagfix kernels for the time being.
And one last thought. Some of the ROMs will not work with OCLF. So, be sure to search their respective threads. Personally, I've tried Onyx and Axura and have found that both work great without a lagfix applied and have pretty good battery life. But YMMV, so read the thread and flash away!
Thanks for all your help guys

Watch the videos anyway because, god forbid, if anything goes wrong, you need odin to revert back to stock and try again.
Anyone have a direct download link to the unoffical tmobile froyo 2.2 leak update/Rom? And is there anyway to install it without a pc.my internet is down at the moment. Thanks
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
there's a flashable version posted somewhere in the development section.
also if you flash that version.. u might need to install busybox available in market.
i couldn't go to recovery when i flashed it, at least in my case.

Ok, so the unoffical tmobile froyo Rom seems to have been removed. Clicked on the link but not showing a download link now. If its still there what page is it on?

Hello, I apologize for the dumb question, but I've been so caught up in flashing all of the new leaks/roms that I've forgotten which version I should be on in order to receive the OTA. For some reason I was thinking JI6, but can't remember for sure.
Any help is appreciated... thanks!

I know how to flash... just couldn't remember if it was JI6. I'll assume that was the last OTA from TMo.
Yes JI6 was the last offical ota.

I'm running stock j16 with some metamorphed icons, should I do a factory reset before the ota?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using Tapatalk
Anything with a stock rom should be good. I just got a replacement phone completely stock, so I'll probably just move my sim over today so I don't have to lose my current setup.

As long as you have JI6 and Twiz running (won't work with a home replacement like LauncherPro), you'll receive the OTA with no problems. I received the last OTA while rooted with bloat removed.
Upgrade seems to come over Kies
So TMoNews has this information. http://yfrog.com/f/gy2nwxlj/ Seems like the upgrade is going to be coming over Kies.
Will it keep all my apps after update?
Can I receive ota update without a data plan?
I am new to the Fascinate, coming from the eris on which I ran multiple different roms, I have my Fascinate rooted and I wan to run Kaoscinate, just want to know if there is anything special I need to do for this rom or do I just flash it? Thank you in advance

Removing kaosinate might get a bit tricky though. I had to odin back to di01 and start over. Your mileage may vary of course.

Hey
Instead of going all the way back to dl01 why not just flash eb01 with odin from here... http://www.droidforums.net/forum/sa...roms-w-root-new-clockwork-updated-2-11-a.html
By the way, kaoscinate is an awsome rom is you can live without sensuous, wifi, and bluetooth.
Just purchased my 1st Android phone and am getting used to everything. Without sounding like a broken record and having spent some time on the forum, can I please be directed to or have answered how to root an Atrix 4.1.83 v2.2.2 without flashing back?
Does it make sense to wait for Gingerbread to come out or does it make sense to unlock the boot now?
Any input greatly appreciated.

Look for Gingerbreak in dev section to root.
I would unlock and flash Kenneth Penn's 4.5.91. The Moto release in SOAK will stop you flashing back if you want to.
Beamed from WinBorg 4G via XDA Premium
If you wait and get an update from Motorola and you have your artix rooted on 2.2. How should one proceed? Does one just update and then re-root after that?
Thanks for the info. I wasn't sure if I HAD to flash back in order to gain root. As much as I don't like the motoblur bloat, a few items are handy. Any ROMs to look at?

When I was running 1.83, I used a method from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1138204
Check out the third post in that thread. You'll need ADB to get it done, but if you don't have ADB installed you may as well do that.
ROM-wise, I'm using CherryBlur, which is a modified version of the latest 2.3.4 ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1160649
And I think it's great. The original HKTW 2.3.4 beta leak had a lot of bugs, many of which have been corrected by community updates and hacks, but Kenneth's 2.3.4 seems to be pretty clean so far. As to whether it's worth waiting for the official release, well... I think it's worth modding your phone just for kicks, and to gain a better understanding of how it works.
Thanks Obscene! Now all I have to do is find the time. In theory; to get bothyour methods done - how long should I expect barring no issues?

if i were to root my S2 will i still be able to get the upgrade when 4.0 is release?
If you root your phone and learn how to flash roms, you'll almost guaranteed be able to put ICS on it long before it's released for this phone.

but would the rooted ROM have the same features as the "stock upgrade"? because i know some of the customize rom have glitches in them most of the time
Yes it would work. To what level and how smoothly it works would be up to you for what you would be willing to try out.
While that may not seem like the answer you were looking for, let me put it this way. When I had the captivate and they finally updated it with official 2.2 (froyo) there were already great 2.3 (gingerbread) roms available that worked amazing.
And the same story with the updates from 2.1 to 2.2.
Sure if you don't modify your phone at all, over-the-air (ota) updates will for sure work. But you can revert your phone back to stock (from a custom rom) to be able to receive those updates, whenever they decide to release them, anytime you want.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using XDA App
I think yes. There is rooted stock rom with all ATT and Google stuff in it.
So you should be able to update with this rom.

Lol. For as much talking as I do and still not answer the question.

I think you will have a better chance to get upgrade to ICS earlier.
Yeah, as said earlier, AT&T official updates often lag by one major version, best case. Look at the Captivate.
Froyo after I9000 got GB, GB still unavailable.
Just like the Captivate and the I9000, the I9100 is our "International brother" and stuff can be ported rapidly.
Depending on the state of Samsung's ICS kernel source release, it may take only a few days for a 95% functional ICS ROM to become available for I777. (Longer if they leave out the MAX8922 driver...)

Does that mean it will be like you never rooted it or is that just another rom that mimic the OEM stuff. Or is that the same thing?
Thanks
Like you never touched your phone. Back to what it was when you pulled it out of the box.
