Hi,
I apologise for asking this question if it has already has been answer.
But how can i update my EVO3D GSM (Rogers) if i am running a Custom Firmware?
I tried manually checking for software updates, but it just loads and loads....never stops!
I am running a custom ICS firmware btw.
Thanks for your reply & again i humbly apologise if it has already been asked.
Hi!
You have to downgrade your software again for stock settings (factory reset). After that the official upgrade is working again.
It is not possible for a custom rom to upgrade to an official rom!

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Since 1.6 is kinda out of date now so I was planning to update the software via the official site to 2.1 as I dont have the technical experience to flash a rom myself.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.
Hey guys complete amateur at this and couldn't find a clear answer for the issue I'm having. I have an unrooted Galaxy S2, in Sri Lanka.
I believe that my carrier doesn't allow us to get OTA updates as I'm currently on 2.3.3. I've heard that there have been a few more updates since. Was just wondering would it be possible to root the phone and then upgrade to the latest Samsung firmware without installing any ROMs? Just want to break the carriers hold to receive OTA updates from Samsung is all I'm looking for? Is this possible? If it is could someone please point me in the right direction, would be much appreciated. Thanks.
You can install latest firmware without the need of rooting, just grab the orginal firmware (samfirmware.com) and flash it with odin.

Flashing orginal firmware via odin dosnt ask root, and dosnt void your warranty.
Thanks, sounds like the perfect solution!
Hi all,
i am currently on official Mango release 7720 and lost my dev-unlock when upgrading.
Now i want to flash a custom ROM to get my dev-unlock/interop unlock back.
My bootloader version is 4.5.2250.1.
I read that i should not use HSPL/RSPL or i will brick my device. I need to flash a Nodo ROM first to get my bootloader to 3.xx.
Is this correct? If so, how can i flash to Nodo ROM when i can't use HSPL/RSPL? Do i need a full backup of my phone when it was on Nodo or is there another way?
Any help appreciated.
Regards,
UP

Well you are on 5.x and this is afaik different from 4.x - i think it is possible to downgrade from 4.x but not from 5.x
Maybe someone can confirm and help me on this 4.x issue. I won't upgrade my phone to 5.x loader ;-)
Noone has any info on that? I wonder how it can be possible that ppl are creating so many roms... doesn't anyone use them?
Maybe i should ask in a rom release thread cause noone is reading here :-(
Hey guys,
I've been mucking around with my galaxy moving between some builds but ultimately have decided to go back to stock for now and wait for 4.0.3 to come out through my carrier.
Anyway, I restored from a CWM recovery image I had and out of curiousity went to update my phone as it's only at 2.3.3. Unfortunately it won't let me update OTA and won't let me update on Keis.
Now i've seen a few threads that say it should be updatable, a few that don't and a few that say both. I just need an information on what I need to do to be able to get the update to my phone and also to prepare it for the eventual ICS update.
Thanks in advance.

Restore Stock Carier from ODIN
Try restoring your carrier's stock ROM using ODIN.
The OTA update is carrier specific and might not work if you're not using the specific ROM provided by your carrier.
You can find a list of (some) official ROMs here:

Or you can google for it if it's not on the list.
hello everyone
i bought an unlocked ls990 g3 phone, it seems that it was originally locked
however the software version installed is ZV4 stock
the phone is unrooted but did not received any firmware updates through OTA
my questions are:
1- why i did not receive the official firmware update ?
2- if i update the firmware to zv6 then zv8 manually, will it lock the phone again?
3- if yes, which custom firmware is the best in terms of similarities as the stock firmware ?
i will appreciate if someone could help me
thanks a lot
