Myself, I'm waiting for a rooted stock incremental or full ROM.
To clarify some confusion. This is what I've learned.
Ava 2.2 is a full ROM based on a leaked official update.
An early release (temporarily hosted by HTC later version than the ava leak) ota update has been released. It is of course not root safe and is incremental. You should be using 1.47 stock to flash it.

Ava is a pre-release, version 3.25. The real deal hasn't come out yet but will be version 3.26.

So I thought I read on here multiple times that it was impossible to upgrade the Eris from the 2.1 Leak to the 2.1 OTA. Just for the hell of it, I gave it a shot. To my amazement it worked. Did I misunderstand the forum or is this really not supposed to happen?
Edit: Grammar
Can you explain more clearly please? Ota from Verizon or?
If you are referring to the "so-called" Verizon OTA release candidate it is possible to update from the 2.1 leak to this version, it's just not possible to update to the 2.1 root which, I may be mistaken, at one point had been called OTA in a few places.
Well When the first 2.1 Leak came out I immediately upgraded to it.
It was this one
HTC 2.1 Leak Rom
Verizon test rom, REJECTED. Do not Install if you want root.
Rom: http://www.sendspace.com/file/frqze0
I downloaded it from the original post from the Taiwanese guy who posted it on here in the first place.
Then just today I thought why not give it a shot and install the newest one. Which was this one.
HTC 2.1 Release Candidate (AKA OTA) Leak Rom
Verizon test rom, possible OTA leak. Do not Install if you want root.
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=RHNAWUR0
Was this not supposed to be possible or not? I thought I read on here that once the Leaked 2.1 was installed, nothing else could be installed. That we were stuck with it.
Let me know if you need any more info.

Oh ok, I guess that's what I did then. I was just confused. This version seems to run A LOT smoother.
Thanks for the answer.
On the contrary, from all I've read, I was of the understanding that upgrading from 2.1 old leak to 2.1 new leak was not only possible, but recommended, if the few bugs in old 2.1 leak...bugged you. Did my upgrade a few days ago from leak old to leak new, and it I like it.
Thanks for all the hard work, leakers and devs!

This is good to know!!!
It depends on how verizon packages the update. If its OTA, without an RUU or PB00IMG.zip, chances will be small (unless they do a format, then complete install, as custom roms do.) OTA's are targetted from one platform to another.
rooted, installed cw recovery, installed jt's superclean 0.4 DI01 ROM, what would I do when 2.2 or 2.3 comes out? will I have to wait a couple days for a updated ROM to come out for that version of android? Or would I have to go back to stock?
Wait for a ROM... Much easier than dealing with having to go back to stock just for an ota

this. and you know very shortly after an OTA comes out, or more likely before, it will be released here in multiple flavors. so i wouldn't worry about it.
ok cool. thanks
Thanks for the info....good post. I hope its true and we see it soon. Ignore PhoenixPath he likes to shoot down anyone.... Your thread 100% belongs here.
Would it be expected to have a Froyo 2.2 rom the same day it comes out OTA if Verizon somehow keeps it from being leaked before?

I would think there would at least be a rooted version out the same day. A lot of it will depend on when it is released. If it gets released late at night or during the week, it may take a little longer than if it gets released earlier in the day or on like a Friday.
Another reason not to return to stock to get an update from Verizon: The update may prevent the phone from being rooted again by patching the security loophole that we exploit to gain root.

ok....im not rooted but i have the unofficial official froyo release that leaked i think its DK28 and i think the official update thats coming is EA17....my question..should i go back to stock 2.1 to get the OTA update thats coming?
Yes.
Sent from my Epic 4g.
You will probably either have to go back to the stock official DI18 or just manually flash the new update. I'm just going to do the latter though it may be a short time later that that is available.
DO NOT FLASH THESE OVER ROOTED DEVICES, UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING.
I will be adding more reliable download links as I can.

updated with OTAs
This thing is one big confusion
I'm not flashing it... but I have a question
Why would anyone want to flash it, if they flashed the leaked one weeks ago
What are these random reboots people are having?
Random reboots on my end. Flashed the .exe version. Rebooted more often when I had foursquare installed. Still Rebooted once uninstalled, but less frequent.

Could you update the OP with a link to the ICS update/RUU?
1. can I accept it if I'm on the stock rom?
2. if not, will there be a comprehensive update from the dev community with new radios and the updated rom?
We already got the update go look in dev section for glacier gingerbread leak posted by faux123, not teampokerface
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA Premium App
This wasn't always true in the past on older phones, but on the MT4G and you're rooted, you won't receive OTA updates even if you're on the stock ROM.
so in other words i have to unroot to get the ota update when it comes out?

no, those are the exact words.
The new OTA will be GB MySense, we've had it for over a week. We now also have GB Sense 2.1 built specifically for our hardware. So in other words, everything tmo has to offer and SO much more is already posted in the dev section. The pecking order of AOSP>Sense>MySense pretty much means that it takes FOREVER to get updates, so official OTA's are like celebrating Christmas in July.
