Hi guys,
some days ago, I flashed my Magic with the Google Ion Firmware.
Do I receive OTA Updates with that firmware or do I have to update it manually?
At the moment I have the DRC83 Build but I think the current build is DRC92 (isn't it)?
Best regards,
b!rust

I'm on the same ROM/build, and the answer is yes
Ok, thank you! But did you already get the DRC92 update?

Did a little bit of looking around, and from what I can gather the build DRC92 is an EU build and DRC83 is US.
I'm on a UK phone, but i flashed to..
signed-google_ion-ota-14721.zip (Android 1.6 rls on HTC dev page)
..using dferreira's guide in the dev forum. From what I can gather there is no difference between the builds, but by using the ION rom you should be able to get the 2.0 update via OTA when it's available from Google/HTC
Yeah, I flashed it the same way (I have also the same SPL xD). I just wasn't sure, if I get those Updates OTA.
So thank you very much for your (really very fast) comments. =)
Hehe no worries - dferreira told me that he's pretty sure we (Magic users) will get 2.0 via OTA, so I'd guess in the next month or so (maybe same time as hero).
And heh, emails go straight to my phone so i'm usually pretty contactable

This from the official T-M boards and Twitter:
From Monday 4th October there will be an over the air (OTA) update making it's way to T-Mobile branded Wildfires. This update will improve the general stability of the 2.1 operating system.
Watch out for it coming your way from Monday.
Cheers

It'll prob be the 1.25.405.1 update (we're still on 1.14.xxx) If i install this would I loose root?
flash it through recovery
thanks for the info OP, i've been getting so annoyed with the phone randomly crashing and restarting. Although I think I'll do my research today and backup the original ROM and put on the 2.2 puzzle roms available. Need to root my new PS3 anyway
I rooted my phone and when I try upgrading to the new firmware that samsung released on October 5, i it says that my phone is not able to upgrade firmware. Any one know what to do? Thank you.

More info please. What kernel, what ROM, what root did you use? I'm nice, but some people on this forum would eat you alive for leaving a post like this.
I'm sorry amigo - I know very little about phones - new to this world. I'm pretty good with computers though. I learn fast.
It's Kernel version 2.6.29
build number SPH-D700 ECLAIR.DI18.
Firmware: 2.1-update1
I used one.click.root.exploitv2.2.4 to root the phone. I haven't installed any other ROMS (Is there a place on the phone or within Rom Manager where it displays which exact ROM I am running?).

You're already on DI18, no need to update.
The build number shows you the ROM you're running
Ah great. Thank you.
Ok, don't think this has been asked before, but if it has - firstly very sorry and secondly I just can't find a clear answer!
- What do you need to be running to be able to receive and install the official 2.2 update when released on an O2 locked Streak?
Since buying my Streak I have subsequently upgraded from the official 1.6 to Steves 2.2 v 1.1 possibly 1.1.1, I'm guessing I have changed the baseband as I don't recall what it was originally (currently 20321-EU and the kernal is 2.6.32.9)
I'm guessing I will need to downgrade to an old official version of Android but what too, and with what baseband?
Thanks in advance fellow Streakers
eM
2.1 official update 8105 + stock recovery base band 21-eu
Since nobody has actually been able to try it yet, nobody can say for sure what you'll need except that it needs to be unlocked v00 to get the earliest release.

This stock recovery baseband you talk about is that what I'm currently running - 20321-EU???
That's the O2 baseband, your update will be in December with the rest of us.

So does that mean I will still receive the OTA update without having to downgrade to 2.1 or 1.6 even with all the unofficial upgrades I've done???

I just recently picked up a dell streak. It's brand new with what I'm guessing it the latest shipped rom which is build number 15274 running android version 2.2.2
All I see is custom roms and reflashing back to other roms to root....blah blah blah...is there a way to just root my current rom and not have to flash a completely new one? I'm all for supporting the community, I'd just like to keep this as device as clean as possible and remove all the bloatware.

Download SuperOneClick v1.5.5 and root away. Dont forget to put your phone into USB debugging mode before rooting, its very important that you do that. Or just follow the steps in this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=925853 good luck.
Wow thanks, I totally skipped over that post!!! I guess from what I was reading I was expecting the whole process to be a lot more complicated.
Thanks a ton!
Anytime.

How come Dell don't push out the 2.2.2 version OTA to their customers?
I check for updates every day, but have just once received any. (2.2)
Their way of saying; "we just don't give a f*ck about our customers"?
You should have gotten that update weeks ago. It's been OTA for probably about a month now. And I don't know how much you've read, but a lot of what happened with not updating from 1.6 was probably AT&T's fault because they wouldn't okay the build (speculated). Dell had the source up for 2.2 for a long time, if I remember correctly.
I'm on unlocked stock EU ROM since day one. Just to clarify.
Do you mean the 2.2.2 was shipped OTA, for EU users too?
Ohhh. Didn't notice you were on EU. I don't know if Dell released one for EU yet (probably hasn't since you don't have the option to OTA). Just remember that it's not just the phone maker responsible for updates, the carrier has some say in it, too. Are you still on 1.6? Because you could always try out DJ Steve's ROM if you wanted to try something different.
No, the one OTA update I received, was the 1.6 --> 2.2 on last October.
Since then - nothing. I guess it's only in America people get the 2.2.2.
Thanx for taking time to reply.
No problem, haha. I hope you get it soon
I really want the update to, I'm in the Uk and I'm still on 2.2, I would do it myself but its just to complicated and don't wanna mess up my phone. Has anyone in the Uk got the 2.2.2 upgrade? And to be honest I really wont the 2.3 upgrade, but seeing as we still don't have the 2.2.2 upgrade, I think we'll be waiting a long time :'(
2.2.2?
If someone updated from 1.6, to the "non official" 2.2, is there any difference between it and 2.2.2?
2.2.2 is supposedly immune to the malware loaded from the 50 or so infested apps that Google removed recently from the market.
Trying to update Incredible from 2.2 to 2.3. Build 3.26.605.1, baseband 2.15.00.07.28
I started to run the OTA update from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=770091 but the baseband version is different. So where do I go from here?
Quick search found this.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1263269
Also your version numbers are off, 2.3 is 4.06.605.3 baseband 2.15.10.7.7
No, my version numbers aren't off. I currently have 2.2, those version numbers refer to my current build. I'm trying to GET 2.3

The base band is the radio version. The reason it's different is because it comes with the OTA to update it to .07.07.
EDIT: According to the post, "First off, ensure that you have the Stock 2.1 ROM with first OTA, it WILL NOT work otherwise.
software/Build version will read as the following: 1.22.605.2..."
Looks like you need to be at 2.1 to run that update.
Got it working. Rooted Froyo, then loaded the Liberation ROM. Extremely happy with it!!
Thank you for your input guys!
