This should help you all:
netboy3 said:
Thanks for the reference. The leaked build version seems to be working for this purpose.
To get this to work, you need to edit the /system/build.prop. find the line that begins with "ro.build.fingerprint" and change it to:
Code:
ro.build.fingerprint=verizon_wwe/inc/inc/inc:2.2/FRF91/264707:user/release-keys
Once rebooted, the nag might appear once more, but if you go to Settings->About phone->System updates you wil now get "your system is currently up to date".

Sent from my Droid Incredible running SkyRaider 3.3.2 with King Kernel BFS #5.
Can somebody give me some simple instructions on how to replace the build.prop file with the changes I made? I grabbed the old one and made the changes (Just changing the numbers from 231334 in my case to 264707 correct?) but can't figure out how to replace the file now. I assume I need to use adb to do it, but I'm not experienced enough with using this method to feel confident and I'd rather not mess up my phone. Is it as simple as:
adb remount
adb push c:\build.prop /system/build.prop
adb shell reboot
Thanks for the help in advance...
What should I do if I do want to install the OTA, just for the sake of being up-to-date stock? I'm on stock 2.2, rooted with S-OFF and and ClockworkMod 2.5.0.5, and I'm not sure where to go from here.
To allow an OTA load.... just Follow the instructions...

I used subs (another root file manager) to edit the file. Click menu > mount system r/w. Then long press build.prop select chmod change to 666.
Edit file, save then change chmod back to 644
This might work in root explorer (change permissions) first.

Is there anyway you (or anyone) can pull the updated .apk file and post it? For whatever reason, I can't upgrade it, either. When I open the app, it tells me off the bat that there is an updated version available. However, why I tap "OK" to update it, nothing would happen. I tried to reboot the phone, and I got this error when I tried the update:
Download failed. -1java.io.FileNotFoundException: /fs:/shared/csitest.tar (No such file or directory)
If someone can post the .apk file so I can do it manually, I would totally give you a cyber high-five.

It's not meant to be an apk that you install onto the phone.
(1) Download the file onto your PC and unzip it.
(2) Enable USB Debugging mode on your phone.
(3) Connect the phone to your PC.
(4) Click on the "SuperOneClick" file in the unzipped folder.
(5) Click on the "Root" button.
(6) Wait until it says that root is successful.
(7) Unplug your phone from the PC and manually reboot it.
(8) Your phone is unrooted!
thanks, I will get a laptop from my work this evening and try.
So (yes I am a noob) should I downloading this file on the phone or on the computer??

You should be downloading it to a PC and running it from there.
Oh, I forgot to add that you need to reboot your phone manually before it is detected to be rooted.

Hi guys I've been rooted since Dec, 27 for WiFi tether and last night took the plunge with mikfroyo Rom. I love it but I miss Sprint tv. When I go to the removed apps folder and click Sprint tv to install it says not installed .. can someone please help me or point me in the right direction thanks alot..
use adb to push it or even flipz hero kitchen still works on the evo, you can push it to system/app that way. you could also manually copy/paste the apk in system/app from within root explorer.

You need to enable "unknown sources" option in the phone, the description is "allow installation of non-Market applications"
Go to Settings -> Application settings and it should be the first option, check the box and try again.
Thanks!

If you were already getting the update message before flashing or pasting this file YOU MUST CLEAR CACHE AFTER PASTING OR FLASHING!!! That will clear the ota download from your phone and it won't be downloaded again after the build.prop edit!
