V3 is OTA, only file OTA has that V3 does not have is \System\App\UpgradeSetup.apk
V3 obviosuly has files that OTA does not because OTA is not a full upgrade, it is the only difference. So, Enjoy. Even the radio, recovery, and boot are the same as V3.

Okay, See if they can install that .apk if not... then ohh well, not a big deal.
That upgradesetup.apk is used by the device after the upgrade only to Upgrade the device... in otherwords not needed at all

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.

But if you were root you could get it on just about any Sense rom... ie:EvilEris 2.0.1, HDLegend, etc.
V3 is very different from OTA.........mainly the fact that OTA does not change HBOOT and you can still ROOT once you have done OTA. Check the thread over at androifforums. I cannot post links as this is my first post.
I am the one that verified this and will fully root my phone tonight.....99% positive it will work.

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.

I hope it works out...
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. I took the roo pb00img.zip after I did the OTA and HBOOT recognised it as valid and would allow me to upgrade.

He's right. If you go from 1.5 to 2.1 OTA you can still root.

More than likely you'll have to AND back to froyo
Anyone seeing a failed update? It made it through the download and rebooted probably went a quarter of the way and the triangle with exclamation point rebooted and reported failure.

There's no root available for the OTA.
I am on a Thunderbolt but I am helping some friends today upgrade to a rooted version of GB using P3droid's method listed previously in this Thread. My question is, during the install while in CWMod recovery do I need to format system/data/ and Cache and then Mount system before installing the individual zips? It isn't clear to me in the instructions. A response would be much appreciated, Thanx

What version is the dx on now? If its already on leaked gingerbread then just flash the deodexed .596 update... If coming from any custom rom or stock froyo then wipe data and cache, I didnt mount
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
So froyo is leaked and installed and all is fun (seems to run a bit slower than 2.1 to me, especially during start up) but I have the problem of A TON of bloatware.
Anybody played around yet? I've frozen a few of them but unsure of what all is good and bad.
How about root? The newest version Z4Root does not work, it stalls and you have to force close it.
got a link to the 2.2 download?

They have released the non-beta on the motorola site. the only issue is. that it won't install on a rooted phone so you have to undo your root first

Hi!
Well, I made some post with the info that good people make available and that I collect to try to make it easy,in this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1211799
I already made the update since 2 days ago and very happy, in my case I found very usefull that at leats by now some usefull 2.2 tricks are very welcome like move some apps to sdcard and few other, but as new detail in my case the 2.2 update is detecting one of my 2 batteries as non original moto, and refuse to charge it, but in 2.1 it works perfect and could be charged...
So, for me is stable and hope that could be better the final release (if it may really happen, since Moto put down the page about the release.... :-/ so could be lucky that at least we have this beta, for possible future roms)
Best regards!
Froyo runs faster and it has a great file explorer built in. The only thing that sucks is that there is even more bloatware from AT&T
I have the phone unlocked and in Canada so my unlock stayed and unknown sources is still available after the upgrade
hope there are some edits soon they get rid of all the bloatware, there are legitimately 12 bloatware apps from AT&T on the phone now.
The interface is a little bit sleeker and the boot up of the phone is now silent, which i love since the old boot up was a bit to loud.
xaser, your guide is what I followed to do mine and I really apprecite your time to put it up. Worked great.
Somebody said the full update is up on moto, anybody got a link? I couldn't find anything.
No I have not tried an older version.
Anybody had any luck with a root on the beta? Or the full version either one?
Are we sure this "beta" isn't the full version? The Android Version in About Phone just says 2.2.2 instead of 2.2.2b like i'd expect with a beta.

Use caution... I flashed back to 2.1 once by simply following the guide in the development forum again. But tried to do it again this morning and my phone bricked. So I had 50% success which is too little for me to suggest it.

I didn't need to reflash, I used RSD to downgrade. Since I had my phone rooted. then I just ran the official upgrade and it's been running like butter for me, real smooth.
I've searched all over for info on rooting froyo on the Flipside and it looks like it's going to take awhile because they locked the phone down tight and the few guys that have rooted the phone have started experiencing problems with the phone because of the root.

Tonight i received a notification that there is an update available OTA for my A500.
Version announced is 7.014.01
Where's the update file supposed to be downloaded to?
I tried to apply it, but there was an error somehow. In the middle of the update process a red triangle popped up. How can I examine the update file better?
Are you rooted? My experience is that most devices will notify you of an update just by version checking, but will fail if rooted because the files the upgrade expects to have in place have changed due to rooting. So you have to either go back to stock, lose root or wait for someone to create a new rooted ROM with this update intragrated.

For sure.
Or, it's possible all of that updates have been implemented with some of custom ROMs, like the new Market version, e.g..
I pulled the patch and decrypted it. I pulled the update.zip file now I'm trying to see what I need to do to it to make it flashible through CWM.

If you have a custom rom installed you cannot flash an official update. Also if you have a custom recovery installed it will also fail as official updates can only be flashed via stock recovery. This official zip file would need to be deodexed etc then compiled by a chef to be flashed via cwm.

I think so it works like stock recovery but with more options , it is the update script that tells where everything needs to be.
But make sure you remove recovery from update and that you add su(superuser) in bin or xbin with the proper permissions for root or you will lose it.

Not sure, but they came back-to-back from what I heard from non-rooted users. Got the first one, and then immidietly got the next one when it booted back up.
To me, that says, first update had some minor bug that they found, or remembered, and then fixed, but since some had already updated to .01, they had to just re-patch that one...?
Maybe you could logcat where the first one comes from, and get the second one from the server? I dunno, I'm not a dev, I know just enough to get myself in trouble...
