DI18 now appearing OTA...I think. - Epic 4G General

I was just about to go to bed, and my newly-exchanged Epic 4G just popped up an update screen asking me to update to DI18.
Sorry if this is duplicate news, but I heard that DI18 was delayed indefinitely, so I guess they're rolling it out now.
Anyone else getting it OTA yet?

Yep, I just got notified on my phone its available.

Did anyone else get their phone un-rooted by the update? After the reboot, I tried launching SetCPU, and got an error message that root wasn't available & it was running in read-only mode.
I'm not sure whether I should be happy that I didn't have to unroot it first to get the update, or furious about an OTA update unrooting what was (I thought) a permanent rooting.

The word "permanent" is used very loosely, so I've learned.

I'm rooted and I still don't have the update. I got the D107 right off the bat. I was starting to think I needed to unroot to get it.

Rooted on the boss rom, got update notification. Haven't installed yet but it won't stopp telling me to..

I've been getting prompted all morning to update, haven't done it yet though as I am rooted. But yes, it will come to you if you're rooted

Confirmed that the update is rolling out. It's best to go way of manuel update with a rooted phone though.

Update question.

Hey guys quick question, I woke up this morning to turn my alarm off and there was a message that my update finally arrived. I clicked ok and went back to sleep and thought it would update the phone. I am still rooted and oclf is still in effect my quadrant score was ~2200. System info said 2.1-update 1 and T959UVJFD. I don't think it went through.

You are correct, the update didnt apply itself to your phone.
But from the sounds of it you are rather lucky it didnt. Most rooted users who leave their phone rooted and try to apply the update end up in the Q&A section starting a threadlike "OTA brocked my phone"
I suggest you remove the lag fix, un root, and then search the forums for the post about using launcher pro to force your phone to search for the update.
Conversely, there is also a thread about how to manually install the new update.
Again, you will have to search it out as I cant currently post links.
Hope this helps

I had the same thing happen. I was rooted with OCLF installed, I disabled everything, unrooted, and uninstalled OCLF.
I went ahead and started the update and BAM! "froze" on vibrant screen- good bye! I had to ODIN, and reflash back to stock.
Up to you at this point...good luck.

Yea I didn't get the update, I went ahead and loaded Rom manager and backed up my rooted Rom and used the download section to load the j16 Rom from them and it looks like it loaded and everything I but still doesn't show up in my settings. Still stock

Be sure to undo the root/OCLF before trying to update anything.

Have u try using mini kies. It work for me trying to upgrade my fone to j16.

For anybody still waiting impatiently on the update. You may want to consider flashing Fusion 1.1 from the dev section. It is from the update build so you wouldnt need the update, and it is a lot faster and very stable. Read through the forum over there if you are interested. There is a lot of excellent feedbeck. It can be flashed over JFD through clockwork very easily.

Going from rooted 2.2 to 2.3

What is the best way to go from a rooted 2.2 to a rooted 2.3?
Dan
I'd love to also, sadly it's not here and may never be.
Just install the OTA update it doesn't matter if you are rooted or not.

I updated to 2.3.340 while I was in the Verizon store when I got home I tried a slew of one click roots and the only one to get the job done was z4root it worked the first time
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
im on 2.2 rooted, but when i click to check for updates it says im up to date. what gives?
you have to be totally stock before it will let you update, if you're build.prop is far enough off it won't even show there is an update.
how do i go back to totally stock on 2.2? I renamed the bloatware .apk's back to the original files, what else is needed?

EA28 build

So, I just got a text from verizon...
"Free VZW Msg. New Fascinate software SCH-i500.EA28 is available to fix the emergency button on the lock screen. See www.verizonwireless.com/fascinatesupport"
Anyone else get this?

Yep got it to
Root worked fine on EA28 update
I used the manual ADB root install method. I prefer that over the one click but it worked perfect. I would expect the one click root methods to work fine also on this update since it seems to only be a fix for the emergency dial and maybe a few bug fixes but there is no major update here at all. I loaded back to stock DL09 and let the EA28 update hit and then re rooted and all is well.

Just received notification to update my XOOM what if I am rooted...

If I go through the install what would happen? Would it even allow me? I thought that if you were rooted you would not receive the notification. I just don't want to take that chance to try it and brick my XOOM. I also do not want to relock it and that wipes it to return to stock.
well if I would guess, since I haven't received an update notification yet, it will probably update just fine, but could remove root. Since it is an unlocked device, if it is unrooted by the update, it shouldn't break the ability to root.
tl:dr it's probably safe
So did you update?

Are you on a VZW Data Plan? or just using it as WiFi ?

Wifi only WILL get the update as well.
Just installed the update and did not even have to relock my XOOM
So your xoom was unlocked and you still got he update?
Yep. And I am still rooted. Love it that I did not have to return to stock

... I'm pretty sure he JUST said exactly that lol.
Sweet. I am sure Moto said to return to stock as a safety measure because they didn't want people coming back with troubles. From their stock build is just the "Official" way to make sure it works and cover their asses.
Excellent! Hope it hits my town soon

What did you test to see that you're still rooted? Just running Superuser makes it appear I'm still rooted yet I get 'permission denied' when running su in terminal and any program that relies on root can't get root access.
Was a quick fix though, just had to run the line 'adb shell chmod 4755 /system/bin/su'
Ok, just to let you guys know that I had lost root when I did the update. All I had to do was re-root my XOOM and everything is good to go now I have root access to SetCPU and RootExplorer
Just received ota also and I'm rooted. Same thing happened with me, still unlocked but lost root. Hopefully all releases go this way

Did anyone grab the update.zip file from /cache before running it?
The file needs to be posted for analysis, thanks.
A guy grabbed it and posted a link to it in the General forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12024182&postcount=89

I got the same green android exclamation icon. Unlocked and Rooted. It did reboot after a few minutes but nothing happened.
It notified me 10 minutes ago and I just installed the update on my rooted and unlocked xoom. All it did for me was unroot it with the update, but the update went through just fine.

Manually Check For Updates on your XOOM

Just FYI anyone waiting for the xoom update it hasn't been successful for me yet but i will try every couple of hours. If you manually set the date to a farther ahead date say a couple days your xoom will check for an update. i noticed the time changing everytime i do it under system updates. So anyone wanting to force an update check change the date you can always just re check auto time.
Poop I Want it now.... is it including the bluetooth mouse support?
Just did this and update started downloading. Installing right now!

For those who have gotten the update, is it locking down the bootloader?

dev forums mention that you loose SU and have to redo the rights but then good to go.
just did this as well, tried it two times in two minutes.
First, nothing happened but the time changed for the last update.
Second time when I clicked the system updates under settings it popped up saying I had a new update.
Downloading now, well see how my rooted wifi only handles it!
Just finished... And nothing happened. I am still on 3.0.1, this happened earlier when I got an update notification and clicked install now or whatever.
Anyone know why this might be?
3.1 has a "check now" button.
The OTA update won't go through if you're rooted. Flash using one of the methods in the development section, or return to stock and wait for the OTA all over again (which is what I did.)
Did anyone update and not have it work? I installed the update and everything seemed to go well but after I checked about tablet section and it still says that it is 3.0.1. I am rooted running an older version if titamat. Haven't messed with it yet, at a first communion but was hoping someone had this problem

No way to go stock with a wifi only, once you root you are stuck...
