Ok...so I did the 2.1OTA manually off of my sd card and noticed that HBOOT did not change so I flashed with pb00img.zip(root) and pulled the battery when it re-booted. I then used fastboot to load the RA-eris-v1.6.2 recovery image. I now have a backup from nandroid of my 2.1OTA if any of you would think that this is helpful.

reply for what, you rooted the ota from 1.5, they knew that already.

Yea, they already know about it. The OTA is more of a patch update so it doesn't update hboot. Right now you probably have an hboot version of 1.46 or 1.47 and leakers have 1.49. The rooted 2.1 rom has a lower version number than the leak (v1,v2, and v3) version number. That's one reason we can't downgrade. You're able to because yours didn't change. If we could get a rooted rom with a higher hboot or make the eris not verify the sigs on the updates/recovery images then we could have root in a snap. Unfortunately, that's not the case...
you backup will contain the 2.1 root image.
Thanks for the info. This is now more or less confirmed in my mind.
2.1 ota DOES NOT contain a bootloader in it, meaning the phone keeps the original bootloader. AKA rootable.

What would top off the cake is if HTC released the OTA right now.
If your a chef, and want, I have a list (and files) of what I want added, and the base image.
I want the bootloader from our ROOT rom, the contents of /system/xbin from the ROOT rom and everything else from the leak rom.
Correct me if I am wrong, but that should give us
the s = off boot loader, su and other programs from xbin, and finally a more stable system.

That's not much to ask for. lol. Why the bootloader and xbin from the root rom though, why not just remove boot.img from the leaked rom and add SU to it and flash it?
Or better yet, build AOSP from source and add the 2.1 Eris drivers from the leaked ROM, and make a Nexus One replica ROM for the Eris?

somone came across a rooted version of the 2.1 ROM so we just have to wait for somone to figure out a way to get the 2.1 leak to "downgrade".
this is all because the rooted rom has a build of 2.19.605.1 Test Keys and the Leaked rom has a build number of 2.26.605.2 Release Keys which in turn makes it a down grade because the rooted ROM is 7 builds lower then the leaked ROM.
my thought would be can somone get into a hex editor and change the build number to a higher version without jacking the checksum and ruining the ROM. maybe that would allow a "downgrade".
but back on topic.... it appears that 1.5 was not rooted at all based on Caboos3's statement
on the subject of rom cooking, i have never done it but am interested and would be willing to do what i could to help out.
ive got a 2.1 rooted eris
iron changing it with the hex number will screw up the checks.
apreichner
the bootloader has secure off, thats what i want it
busybox is userful
xbin has su, scp and other things i want.
i knew it would... but i wonder if there is a way to do it and preserve checks.
im not sure how checksum algoritims work so i dont know if theres a way to offset the change.
the only hex editing ive ever done with files only required me to ensure the file read the same size so minor changes were possible and a single digit change would be a minor change.

Oh I didn't realize the bootloader was like that on the rooted rom. I was thinking you could just push the image if you had SU, but since the bootloader is already unsecured, you could use that. Until you guys get a custom recovery of course.
The bootloader has S-OFF *AND* it is an Engineering SPL. Can we extract the SPL by chance? I have an idea.....but I wont' mention it if we can't

I'm pretty sure friendstream is an Sprint rom application that was ported over to the Eris.
Friendstream was never supposed to be on the Eris 2.1
Well its not it was in the update notes it really isnt even something I care about but its not there. Another thing there is talk that people that went from 1.5 to 2.1 ota are still able to root so there have to be some pretty big differences between the two.
You are mis-reading it. The only reason people would be able to is if bootloader doesnt get updated. This is allready updated past the s-OFF on a leaked non rooted 2.1 - The only hope is if what Zifnab is working on is completed.

He said 1.5 -> OTA 2.1, not leaker... so, their bootloader has not gone past the S-OFF version, if as you suggest the bootloader stays untouched.
Have a peek at ./META-INF/com/google/android/update-script (look for write_raw_image); it sort of looks like the kernel image (boot.img) and recovery partition are written, but a cursory inspection shows nothing similar for the bootloader, nor any files in the .zip which are exactly 512 kB.
As far as doing a file comparison between a post-install OTA phone and the leak-V3 code, it seems like a dev would actually have to compare post-patched code from the phone, something like this: (?)
1) Restore 1.5 but leave S-OFF in place (folks who did the Toastcfh "battery pull" can do this).
2) Run the update.zip (and pray that the bootloader is untouched).
3) Use fastboot+S-OFF to re-installl Amon_RA's recovery
4) Boot to recovery, and use adb to pull everything from /system, /data partitions back to the dev's PC
5) Restore whatever ROM you please
6) On the PC, compare phone files to leak V3 files (compare checksums or run binary diffs).
An even safer way would be to run the update in an emulator instance, but I'm not exactly sure how to set that up. (The SDK emulator is based off of QEMU - you can run arbitrary ARM code in it, but the update obviously needs to start with the Eris 1.5 code in the emulator).
On other matters, I note that there are some assertions at the beginning of the patch run:
Code:
assert file_contains("SYSTEM:build.prop", "ro.build.fingerprint=verizon/htc_desirec/desire
c/desirec:1.5/CUPCAKE/104882:user/release-keys") == "true" || file_contains("SYSTEM:build.
prop", "ro.build.fingerprint=verizon/htc_desirec/desirec/desirec:2.1/ERD79/165907:user/rel
ease-keys") == "true"
Anybody know which HTC leak matches the "2.1/ERD79" fingerprint?
Also, call me paranoid, but methinks HTC or Verizon are dicking with us - look at the ridiculous timestamps in the .zip file. Nobody is that sloppy.

Manually updating with the OTA file definitely does not change HBOOT at all. I had 1.47 before and I still have 1.47......leakers all have 1.49....if you need a video I can make that happen......and andrew no need to call anyone an effin noob, I have probably done more with software in the last 24 hours than you have in your lifetime.....all I am saying is that if you install the OTA you still have the option of rooting.

Hi guys,
Just recieved a nexus s i purchased on ebay (LOVE IT!) coming from a Galaxy S i used to use odin for flashing the latest roms
But one of the things i wanted from having the nexus s was getting updates quick, and what i thought was OTA updates.
i have just gone into "about phone" checked for updates and there are apparently none available. details below
Android Version = 2.3.1
Baseband Version = I9020XXJK8
Kernel version = 2.6.35.7-gf1638a [email protected] #1
Build number = GRH78
so my question is, how do i get to the latest official FW, i thought it would be as easy as clicking check updates, but obviously not
Cheers guys, i have searched btw, and im lost completely
The full ROM to upgrade you to 2.3.4 is available here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1061445
That should work for any previous build I think - if not use the 2.3.3 ROM and then run the update to 2.3.4.
of course assuming your running stock you could try a checkin and wait for the OTA to reach your handset........
as im on 2.3.1 at the moment, wouldnt there be an OTA already waiting to update to 2.3.3 if the 2.3.4 update has not yet been pushed to this perticular handset?

boot your phone up while holding onto the volume up button as well and it should load up a screen with a green droid which will show your bootloader state whether it's LOCKED or UNLOCKED.
Place the rom in the root directory of your sd card then boot in recovery and install zip from sdcard.
ok checked and its locked, so am i still able to flash from sd?

It depends. If you are looking at staying "stock" then go see the sticky thread for 2.3.4, there is a full ROM version that you can install. It's signed by Google, so the stock recovery will install it. No need to unlock your bootloader
if you wanted to flash zip's (such as the superuser zip update to gain root access) that where signed by other sources, then you would need to unlock the bootloader and replace the recovery with something like Clockwork

They are newer than previous leaks I've seen posted here on XDA so far...
That being said... 1.68.605.3 was posted on Rootzwiki.com's forums around 6/24.
1.69.605.0 is slightly newer than that.
If these are "full" signed RRU's, and they include an hboot and recovery files, then flashing them will most likely remove root, S-Off, and clockwork/custom recovery.
Jcase mentioned being on a 1.70 build a few weeks ago too.

I hold out hope that someone can unpack and build a rooted flash out of this. Otherwise, it's going to be just like the leak in that once you flash it you're left sitting around waiting for someone to do something...anything with it.
Mad props to the OP for putting this up. This should definitely get a ball rolling since we now have the FULL PC10IMG ROM flash version of the newest build/GB available for the G2.
Interesting too - the newest stuff (tp's) in that archive are 7/29/2011 - soooo fresh
Thanks for uploading this file. I updated my G2 last week. Kinda odd the update zip I used was only 73.1 MB and this one is 131.MB almost doubled. What is the differance between the two files. It seemed to update just fine from 2.2 to 2.3.4. Everything is running just smooth. Unless there are files and apps that I might be missing. I might give this a try again. Currently running 2.3.4 unrooted with S-ON. Still waiting for someone who can fully root the OTA 2.3.4 with S-OFF. Anyone know about the update zip that was leaked last week? Should I flash this one instead or keep what I have?

The update.zip is an update from 2.2 to 2.3.4. This PC10IMG.zip is the whole operating system. You can be on the first OS that shipped with the phone (2.2 but before wifi calling) and still use this file. To use the update.zip, you must be running the update that included wifi calling.
PC10IMG.zip will factory reset your phone.
Just like blink said, this is the full system image, the update essentially just includes the updated code not the entire image.
My hope is that this will help the developers intigrate this into their roms.

We already got a rooted flash of this we need it tweaked up with someone who knows what there doing. Seems we have little development for our phones anymore so I'm not holding out that it will be soon.

lulwot? This is THE first I've seen of the PC10IMG - full ROM from the T-Mobile store sdcard update. If there is a rooted flash of this please provide the link. Like yesterday! ROFL
Otherwise, all we have or have had is a rooted franken-build flashable mashup of the OTA and whatever other stuff.
Like I said, if you got a link to the full rooted flash of THIS rom, I'm all ears
Again - huge props to @atlp99 who made good saying he would bring the in-store copy ASAP. Well done!
PS - @atlp99 I saw your thread and it looks like they deleted it. Regrettably unless your posting CM7 crap or some variation of that or some Sense rom, they seem to delete new threads.
@RM, question, why not just delete the Vision stuff off xda? Or, alternatively quit deleting **** you pinhead.
Mirror!
Does anybody have a mirror download for this? I cant seem to download it from radidshare

I made a rooted version of the stock ROM. Right now I'm testing it, should be up in 20 minutes

Cool can't wait. What rooted version of what stock rom are you talking about? The PC10img.zip that we are talking about here ( I hope so) or the stock 2.2?

Sorry im a newbie..do i just rename the file PC10IMG.ZIP and put it on my sd card, boot up into the bootloader and go from there? I did that with the earlier PC10IMG.ZIP 2.3.4 that was posted on this thread..can it override that??

No no, what this is is a stock 2.3.4 image created from the PC10IMG that will not overwrite hboot, will not kick you back to stock recovery, will not update your radio and is rooted.
Just flash it with CWM.
just wanted to say this worked to upgrade the leaked 2.3.3 to 2.3.4 . you lose your apps but that's not a big deal
thanks!!! i had the leaked 2.3.3 and was gonna go through the painful process of downgrading then upgrading to 2.3.4
but this file saved all that work! wuhu!
What is the diff between 2.3.3 and 2.3.4?
