OK I will put this out there for everyone so we don't have a million threads going on this subject.
1 If your on DI18 stock and rooted with a simple root method you will get the OTA, you will lose root.Also having CWM installed will not break the OTA but you will lose CWM due to the stock recovery being flashed.
2 If your on a DI18 rom that you have flashed with CWM you will get the OTA but it will fail due to the rom not being stock the OTA zip will check for this and if your not on the stock rom the OTA will fail to install.
3 If you have a stock rom with any bloatware removed the OTA will also fail to install the OTA zip file will check your system to make sure its stock.
4 If you running a leaked Froyo build like DK28 or DK17 or any rom made from those leaks you will probably not get the OTA notification at all you will have to reflash back to stock DI18 to get the OTA.
The best thing to do if your running a rom is to wait on someone to make a flashable zip to convert from DI18 to EB13 or a zip to flash from a DK28 rom to EB13 it might take a day or two to get it converted but it will happen after all this time waiting for it another day or two shouldn't kill anyone.
I have stock DI18, rooted, and do have CWM installed (but never ever flashed any ROMs at all), will I be able to OTA? Sorry I'm still new at this.
Good idea to post this. I doubt it will prevent the morons from creating new threads though, there are already 3 or 4 scattered about on this board. Should probably throw something in there about being able to d/l it over Wifi as I've seen that one asked a lot recently, too.

If you have CWM installed it will be overwritten by the stock recovery during the flash.

I have stock DI18 with root, but I have deleted some of the sprint bloatware, what does that mean for me as far as OTA update, will I still recieve it or will I have to do a song and dance to get it. Any advice would be helpful

So my question is, I have stock DI18 (Odined back from dk28 last night) and rooted using oneclick root with CWM 2.5.whatever(not CWM3). I have read that if you are rooted and want to receive the OTA update you must not have deleted any stock applications. Oneclick root deleted the stupid asphalt 5 game demo and I am wondering if this is considered a stock app that may affect the result of downloading the update.
edit: just saw the post above mine after i finished writing this one!

+1 ^^^
Seems to be a conflict of criteria...is asphalt demo not considered a "stock" app? If it is, then by the OPs criteria even havin root would break the OTA since one-click removes asphalt...
A little clarification please?

I think the main point is everyone should just wait until a cooked up rom is released....who cares if you get the OTA? Ultimately, aren't you just going to put a custom rom/kernel on your phone anyway?

I'm gonna say this one more time. SOME of us just want to have the littlest, simple satisfaction of receiving the cool little feature of an Over-The-Air upgrade. Because really, how many times does it happen? Its like I want to go outside when there's a comet passing by. Yes, I could just pop in a DVD about comets with nice high-def imagery and commentary by Morgan Freeman, but I didn't actlly DO it.
So do not deny nor judge this opportunity for us. If you cant , then don't post here. The thread isn't titled "why the hell would you retards do an ota just wait for some warezzzzzzzzz! Lolzzzzzzzz!" So contribute if you can, otherwise don't.
Plus....SOME of us have been on a 2006 winmo powered brick for the past 5 years and we got to miss out on this fancy little thing called a firmware upgrade...over the air! OVER THE AIR!

What should someone do to prepare for the OTA
Well as someone said above, not every one has gone through a OTA update (I came to the EPIC from a true PALM when the software was really worth something) and some guidance may keep us from having major problems.
The only thing I could think of was to backup my EPIC. I used MyBackup Pro and backup to both my card and online. Anything else I should do????

Thanks for the detailed informed post. We need more like them.
I figure this is the best place to ask this.
I am stock and rooted with one click. I am not running any custom roms. Will there be a stock/rooted release that I can dl from this site or am I going to need to odin back to complete stock and take the OTA update. The majority of what I have been reading is to let your rom maker create a new one. Since I don't want a custom Rom yet, will I be able to get the stock/rooted update.
Thanks!

After the OTA starts going out there will be one up on this site pre-rooted and complete stock within like 5 hours.
Awesome... that waswhat I wanted to hear. I will try out roms eventually butwant to see stock first.
Since I didn't see this yet, and I'm not a fan of the bloatware in the RUUs are they come from verizon, I decided to take what was released so far and remove the stuff I didn't like.

The only difference is some of the app apks are removed, and will not start (some of them have background services that put a little extra stress on the system).
It's the same kernel however, the battery life is much better on the custom kernels - hopefully the source will be released soon for this cut and imosyon/adrynalyne can do something more with it to get battery life back up.

Did you do a full wipe and install the radio from the linked page? I didn't put step by step instructions because I figured by this point that would be pretty spelled out. If I need to, I can update the OP with more explicit instructions.

I did a full wipe, and this is not the first time the market acted up for me. It use to do it on my Eris, Dinc and now the thunderbolt. But I can install through the website which makes this just strange to me. I was using Flyweight Final with the 2.5 radio and had no issues but updated to current radio that came with the official MR2 update. Right now it doesn't matter what radio or rom I use I can not download from the android market on my phone.
Any ideas?

Hmmm.... only thing I can think of to check is a flaky mobile data connection if you are using that...... if you have it available see if you can link your thunderbolt to a known WiFi spot with the new OTA radio and access the market from there. I don't think it's software-based as I'm currently running the exact same rom on my phone and can get to the market in both WiFi and mobile data situations.
Good luck trying to use MMS on this. I'm working on a safe and useful debloat and to do it properly, it takes some time. I'll have it posted soon enough.

My ThunderBolt did the same thing for me with the non-Debloat that Jcase/RetroKid provided (again which none of these updates have some of the features listed on the official support PDF from Verizon)
MyMarket wouldn't even show the ThunderBolt in the account settings/devices list
it was just, gone, I synced it 3 times and still it didn't show up, i tried to download stuff, couldn't, so i was angry enough about the problems i started with and just flashed my MR2 nandroid from back in June and i'm back to normal.
this update was NOT ready for primetime, nor does it have the desktop app, or new App menu with the tabbed browsing, the same menu found on the Incredible 2 (which is Sense 2.1) when I confronted the devs about the rom not having some of those features they called me a liar and said well that was a Verizon typo, this update just fixes the reboot issues that is all " SO I have made a promise to myself to never deal with those bung-holes again. I absolutely hate Devs that think there either king of everything in this area or they think they can remove stuff and people won't notice or they can edit anything they wish and you have to put up with what THEY want. alot of good features and apps are lost that way.
anyway, that ends my rant
maybe i'll try this one but since its also provided by jcas/RetroKid I don't expect it to be any different...
anyone finding difference btwn this and bamf 1.8.6?
Thanks to jcase for the RUU
Thanks to Retrokid223 for the deodex ROM

Keeping it simple. We all know what this is. This is the OTA update rooted, deodexed, debloated.
All VZW garbage removed. HTC bloat still there minus the Stocks app.

Full list of removed bloat.
Desensed version.
A "lean" debloat is also being worked on where everything non essential to Sense will be removed.

No, it's a zipped ROM, not a full RUU with radio. Not sure on wireless tether, as I use the built-in one on CM 7
Great work! I had gone through and done a little debloating myself, but this got the things I missed.
I just used Wireless Tether 2.0.7, works great on this ROM.
Thanks again!
this is exactly what I was looking I'm currently not rooted. I will root just for this rom but I have a question, will my current radio work or do I need to flash a different one ? I'm came from a droid 2 so its a little different for me on the tb any help would be truly appreciated thx !

1.39.00.0627r is the latest official radio, so you shouldn't need to flash a new radio in HBoot, except I believe the rooting and S-OFF process still involves downgrading in HBOOT. You might want to see if that thread (should be a sticky, IIRC) has been updated with the new base ROM.

Ok, anyone who chats with me on AndIRC knew that this was coming and also know why. Thread closed. Current work will be maintained on RootzWiki where I've been spending most of my time anyway. Continued support and development there for my stuff.
Here is the pc10img.zip file that is available from T-Mobile stores. Make sure your phone is fully charged before you attempt to install it, the demo I installed it on would not install unless the battery was 100%.

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.

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.

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!

Its a stock base, all apks and jars in the rom are from the 2.3.4 ota update... Added mods yes, but when you flash it, with the exception of the rosie image, it looks and acts stock. No need to be a "hater", I don't and won't "hate" on anyone's work, and don't find the need to... Ever...

Haha!! I don't hate newSENSE man and when I have time I'll give it a flash..I haven't even had time to work on my own projects to flash..There's stock rooted and then there's custom roms, don't want noobs to get confused..
Anyways back to topic..
wait so is the file in that post with the method the stock ota? or is it a modified ota.
Sparksco has a "bone" stock rom on rom manager and newSENSE is very close to stock but modded beyond belief... If you want "stock", check rom manager...

Speaking of indirect's rooting method ... I'm confused where to place the files he says to download and from where to run the commands he has at the top of the post.
Any help?
(I would have posted this in his thread ... but noobs can't.)

You could always pm indirect about it. Most people in the shift community have already rooted phones from previous updates like the original froyo that came stock on the shift and have never had to use that method...I'm one of those people
