Apologies if this has been discussed before, but is it possible to install stock 2.1 Rom over leaked 2.2?
I really dont like this leaked Froyo.
Thanks.

no
and next time post this under questions
Please try searching before posting. There have been like 10 posts a day about this since the leaked version launched.
Take it to a Sprint store and they should be able to roll you back.

ok, so currently i am on flyx 2.2 based on teh leak. i would like to update to the official or a rom based off it. so i am assuming i have to sbf to 2.1, ota to 2.2, then flash a custom rom? do i have to sbf? i thought i read somewhere it would be possible to update leaked 2.2 to official with a custom rom. so yeah, just before i get started i wanted to make sure i was doing the right things and no unnecessary steps.
thanks for the help.
really? 56 views and no one knows? i know it's not the smartest question, and really i am just trying to confirm that i need to sbf to get to 2.2?
Can do it both ways but one you go official you can not flash back to 2.1.
I personally suggest flashing then getting the ota. After that apply which ever rom you like. I'm sure others have diffrent opinions.
Good luck either way

Hey guys quick question,
After reading on several sites about the android 2.2 for the epic that was released on googles servers I flashed to that. So, I'm on android 2.2 now and 1) am wondering if it was a real rom or if it was just a leak and 2) why didn't we get the puzzle piece lockscreen like the captivate vibrant etc.?
Thanks for your help
Edit: I'm currently on dk28

1) leak, it isn't "official" unless sprint provides it
2) different pieces are scattered between galaxy s phones, find someone to port it as an add-on
Thanks so much for your help. One last question: will I receive the"official" update ota even though I'm on this leaked rom? Do I need to flash back to stock 2.1?

Have to be on 2.1 to get the ota.
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

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.
Ok, I know I have been really slacking with updating my phone. I'm still running the first rooted version that came out after the phone was released. I'm just getting back into tinkering with my phone and want to check out gingerbread 595.
With that said, I'm looking to find out if I need to sbf or flash (I can do either, I'm competent in both) any versions previous to 2.3.320 before I flash to 2.3.340 and then 595? I've been scouring all of the Android forums for the past week and I can't find out if I can flash directly to .320 from .9... can anyone help me out?

I'll feed you baby bird...
edit:
Oh.. yeah I went with the leak and ended up having to sbf back to previous stock at the time. Then went and OTA'ed... from there you can start over and look into the GB. Although a word of caution, from what I read, going to GB now you might regret. Seems like you try GB and then end up wanting to go back to froyo and have all sorts of issues. You will be in the same position... I will wait... pretty satisfied with my Liberty 2.0.1!
Look for maderstock.340 update.zip
That will get you into froyo.340
Find and flash gingerbread.588
Then your good to go straight to .595
The only issue with GB is the free tethering is for the moment, dead.
Stock GB is as fast or faster than any custom froyo I have ever flashed. And I actually prefer the new blur to AOSP.
Go with gb, you wont be disappointed.

My question is why wouldn't you just install a ROM like Liberty and let them get you the most recent Android version?

Because as they said they are on an older version and haven't been keeping it up to date. They may have just been satisfied with how things were on their system version

Take a bow from me for you must be a very unique person indeed,especially in these times when most people are itching to port ICS even before the official launch!!
Hopefully you have Kies installed in your PC in which case,all you have to do is connect your phone to your PC,start Kies and you will be told about the update that is available which is going to be some version of Gingerbread depending upon where you live.
As for Froyo,you can download any Froyo package from 'Ramad's' posts that you will find with minimum search in these forums and then flash through Odin.You will also find elaborate tutorials that will give you a wealth of information.
You are a modern day Rip Van Winkle surely!
You might want to consider froyo 2.2.1 ZSJPK as that is the most stable of the Froyos.

No stupid question at all! found the news that only a small part of the android users is upgrading (in dutch)! guess the junkies of xda are not really representative! For your case i would recommend to install kies and all drivers to update according to your region! if you need a specific froyo do as above!

Plug in your phone to your computer and try upgrading through KIES. If you have any problems with that, then use Odin and grab some Froyo stock files...
