When the official Sprint 2.1 update comes out should I update the firmware or just wait for a custom ROM that is based off the official release. Probably just going to wait but just curious.
wait
what, you need me to say more?
Haha Well the roms that are going to be based off of the official releases are going to be slimmed down and optimized I would guess. I would run a rom from Fresh. His seem to be the most consistant out of them all. Not bashing others, just saying that he has been pretty much in the game since day one here.
I's start yet another thread about the 2.1 update.
AND not use the SEARCH option here first!
Then there'd be a chance someone might take you seriously.
JMHO,

Sprint is not releasing an official 2.1, It is just heresay lol
Flashing their official update will require you to RUU (whether it's to go back to stock to get OTA, or if they actually release an RUU). In either case, you will lose root.

Flipz speaks the truth. As many others have said, just wait for a ROM from one of our awesome developers. If I were you, I'd stick to Fresh ROM since Flipz tends to be very professional about his updating and bux fixing, not to mention every ROM release he uploads is almost always flawless (ie. not forgetting files, etc.). Just my 0.02.
ok if we loose the root can we always root again...and when i rooted i didnt mke a a nadroid back up just recoveryimage.1.5.2 can i still go back to stock??????thru ruu
yep, wait for fresh 2.1

OH RLY? Ask some G1 users... It's not always a definite that you will get root..
So if it goes OTA will it prompt me to install it? Should I turn off the "Check For Updates" option in Settings?
you will be waiting for the update for a long time. Just flash one of these awsome ROMs and enjoy your root. I talked with a tech @ the sprint store this past weekend and he was told the update will not come out till the EVO 4G arrives

there are a couple devs working on a rom for this new leak, which is actually LEAK VS. 4.
Two devs have a basic rom they are working on, and another dev is about to start an update to his rom. so just hang tight, a rooted version of this will be available shortly, like a day or 2.
Oh FINALLY some action up in this place. This is cool.
Hey eclipse, what was v3? I'm with the OP; I thought this was.
there was the 2.1 developer ROM,
then the 2.1 Leak w/o root
then the 2.1 pre-OTA
then this one.

This one is tempting to upgrade to. I think I should wait I'm still on 2.1 v1 but holding out I know once I upgrade to a higher version v1 will be rooted days later.

This v3 leak is for the leaked people, but it does not help us in any way get root.
Digging the update, but...
My market is still devoid of several apps.. I'm non-rooted (early leak adopter), so it doesn't seem jcase's fix will work for me.. just wanted to share in case A) someone else was trying to figure out whether v3 fixed this problem, and/or B) I'm an idiot and someone else knows what I need to do to see the full market..

It's not just you and you are not an idiot. The short answer is that the problem lies with google, VZW, and HTC. HTC has to give google a final build number before google can authorize full access to the market.
In short we won't get full access until we a) get root or b) VZW releases an official OTA.
has any of you leakers installed this?
would it be possible for you to tell me what the radio version is?
Thanks =D

Guys, I need some help.
I need to return my EVO Shift to Sprint and need to unroot. I did a search for "unroot" in this forum but couldn't find any clear instructions.
I have Cyanogenmod 7.1 installed (the official one).
Would really appreciate some help. Thanks
Search for the RUU. Run it. You'll go to unrooted stock. I have one on my old SD card if I find the time I'll load it up
Shifted from Outer Space
Or you can flash a sense based rom and take the OTA. That should work too

Flash the PG06IMG.zip file from the shift rookit below:
http://www.goo-inside.me/roms/VICODAN/shift-rootkit.rar
Copy the file to the SD card power off the phone, hold vol+down plus the power button and accept the update. You will lose all data including data on the sd card and will be unrooted on Froyo 2.2
Seems like just running RUU 2.2 is the easiest. I searched for it and got a link to multiupload which doesn't work.

Well... seeing how most android users (90% plus don't root) will blindly accept any and all ota updates, the tech said it was very odd for a user to still be on froyo... He said I put off 3 ota updates, and he was curious as to why... I shrugged my shoulders and said " I dunno"...

Also going to 3rd party stores makes life easier as well. I took my phone rooted last week and the tech told me to go unroot my phone and bring it back because his DM was there. LOL
Yeah someone I know was having touchscreen issues, with the phone. Told them, your insured, only been a few months since you got it. Take it back in and let them look at it. But first let me Unroot it. She was in a hurry, and took it to Sprint Rooted. Tech knows me, so he called me up. Was not a good situation . If the Manager had been there they would've flagged her account.
TEAM MiK
Mik Roms Since 3/13/11
My phones not under warrenty anymore. I go to third party stores and I don't care if they know it's rooted or not. As a matter of fact I tell them it's rooted. I've been told by people that sprint doesn't care if you root your phone or not as long as it's not under warrenty. I've also been told by a sprint employee that you can root your phone. There's a law that most people don't know about that protects developers from carriers attacking them with legal issues. Fear I have not.

Well I will attempt to but I expect the same issues that we are having with F400S lollipop update. We haven't been able to get a port going yet
Would it be better to wait for a flashable ROM as if we do an OTA update we might not be able to get root back for a while... (different boot loader)?
exciting
I am excited. Of course I'm in Australia so thr chances of it rolling out to me in a hurry is slim, but as with all things phone related its a matter of time. This just means that LG is keen to keep some marketshare goodwill. It also means that it will be sooner rather than later that the awesome devs in XDA take it and bake it better.

So next rom would be based on 5.0?
Since Poland users gave d855, would any d855 user be able to flash manually, given access to appropriate files? If yes, would it then be able to be put into a custom rom accessible to all (similar to how CloudyG3 allows me, a d850 user, to run 10n (which alone would be unflashable, if i am not mistaken))?
In theory yes. However im not flashing until a custom ROM is made. Root i can just about live without (I guess the kernel will need bumping).
I am from poland... Yesterday i got ota information about update but i dont know what update it was because i am on AndroidNow hd 2.4 and have bump! So i disable ota because i am afraid i will stock in recovery... Is a way to go back all to stock to take this ota? And if i get this the bump! And root toll may not work?

you can download ota and if it tells you it's 5.0 you can provide us the zip without flashing it
edit: aaaaand for you all to know you can't port it to other devices without proper kernel... different carriers have different partitions and kernels are built differently for each version thats why we can't port the f400s to d855 even if was able to boot the kernel it goes panic because of the incorrect partitions and configurations.. we need sources

God dammit.
I talked to two VZW reps. Neither was able to offer much support. The second actually said that Motorola would be able to help me get the image, and told me to call them.
Called Motorola, and the first rep told me to ask on the Motorola support forums for help. Yes, that's right., they wanted me to ask for the recovery image ON A USER-SUPPORTED FORUM. Genius. The second tech said that my only option was to go do a Factory Reset or go back to 4.4.4, neither of which is acceptable to me. "Well, you can contact Verizon for help."
So now I have a flagship device, bricked by the OTA, and nobody knows how to fix it. Screw you, VZW/Motorola. If you provide updates, you should have recovery firmware images available IMMEDIATELY!

You know what? We have a few spare devices lying around here at work. Maybe I'll steal one for a few days
my phne is bricked as well after the ota. although I just did a factory reset a couple days ago so I'd be fine with resetting my device or going back to kitkat... but how would I go about doing that?

Not from a website, he must be a samsung ses or employee.
Any word on a potential release date for nougat? Extremely dissatisfied with Samsungs lack of support with the U variants. Makes me want to avoid Samsung products here on out.
It makes me think that they're waiting to synchronize the S8 and S7u software releases... So perhaps the S7u will get all the S8 features before the carrier versions?
I know the SM-G930VL got Nougat today. No Wi-Fi calling or video call but it did finally get it. It's the Straight Talk unlocked version.
That's pretty pitiful when prepaid carriers get it before unlocked owners...
It's pretty stupid that an UNLOCKED version doesn't have the latest software, so dumb of Samsung to do that.
Also None of the Verizon versions of S7 has the updated firmware too, so far only T-Mobile in the US has 7.0
May be AT&T does too

All the major carriers have it. Verizon just got it about a week ago.
I bought this thinking 7.0 was on it, and quite disappointed that it's not, and it's not even available.
You can Odin another carriers nougat on the U. I'm using Verizon's until it does cone out.
Do I need to root my phone to do that? or I can just ODIN it?
Any instructions or videos on it, really don't want to root the phone as it decrease the value

No you don't have to root. It's just a simple Odin procedure.

what? no, just scroll down (bottom of first post) to where it says "return to stock" and follow the instructions there. you don't have to be rooted to install another official samsung rom. and also fwiw even if you do end up rooting you can always reinstall stock rom without tripping knox (as implied in the tutorial).

Hmm, this is going to root the phone, I don't want to root it, as it will decrease it's value. I will wait for another week or two if there is no update to 7.0 I will sell it

Just like he said but when you download the Verizon firmware, make sure you use CSC and not the HOME CSC when you flash. Home will keep your data but I'm not sure how it'll react coming from a different carrier.
