A new gb question - Droid X General

Hello everyone,
I am currently running the apex 2.0 beta, and a new version has come out, but I need to update to the official gb. My system is on the 591 gingerbread leak.
Could I simply flash the zip file for updating from a gb version? Or do I have to SBF and then go to the official?

Rolling back Software

Hi,
i Currently have Andriod 2.3.3 on My Phone with CF-Root on with Also Installed ClockWorkMod.
I Plan on Rolling back to 2.2.1 to test something
If I Spoofed the Device using spoofw and Choosed a Different device Code and re-flashed with Kies.
Would This Work without any issues?

If you want official Froyo 2.2.1 for UK then flash XXJPY.
Flash with no pit and no re-partition after disabling any lagfix if enabled...and you will be fine.

XXJVO is the official 2.3.3 for UK, it's there too.
You needed a Foryo for your phone, I suggested the Froyo firmware according to your need.
Remember to use a firmware with a boot image prior gingerbread. I don't know exactly which one to use though. Maybe someone else can answer.

It's just this second finished downloading, got to back everything up before I install so I wont know really until tomorrow. I'm sure someone will have an opinion on it soon.
Hello,
If I install this with Mobile Odin, will it erase all my applications and settings ?
Thanks!

I'm sure one of the tallented guys here at XDA will make CWM flashable file out of it anyway! Giving you the option to wipe it or not, so you could wait a few days to see if one does get made, before going the Odin route, they'll be mini reviews by then too. Although I personally think there wont be too much difference between this and the last update.

Yeah, pretty much every update since around December has been unrootable using those methods. Mobile Odin is your better option.
Flashing with mobile Odin LC1 can be rooted?

[Custom OTA Update] XXBLG6 to XXBLG8 Flash in CWM without losing root or recovery

Here are my custom CWM recovery OTA updates for the international S3
NOTE: For STOCK Rom users only. Your CSC must be I9300OXABLG6. If you have made any changes to files in the /system folder it will fail.
If like me your using a stock ROM rooted with custom recovery or kernel and want to update without downloading the whole ROM and risk losing root and recovery in the process. These modded updates are for you to save time, bandwith and frustration.
Current OTA update: XXBLG6 to XXBLG8
ota.update.all.XXBLG8.zip 4 MB
ota.update.no.modem.XXBLG8.zip 4 MB
ota.update.no.kernel.XXBLG8.zip 542 KB
ota.update.no.kernel.and.modem.XXBLG8.zip 541 KB
All the zips here will not replace your custom recovery or remove root. The no kernel and no modem zips are intended for users with a custom kernel and or want to keep their current baseband.
Tested and working on CWM 6.0.1.0 Touch and Chainfire's CWM 5.5.0.4
If you've got the OTA update notification nag, to get rid of it do this:
1. Using a file explorer with root permissions, I use ES. Go to /cache/fota ,In there will be the update.zip
2. Delete it or move it to your sd card.
3. Bring up the updater from the notifications and press install and OK, it should fail.
4. Notification nag gone.
Older OTA updates:
Austria (T-Mobile)
ota.update.XXALE8-XXBLFB.CSC-MAXLF2.zip 72 MB
ota.update.no.kernel.XXALE8-XXBLFB.CSC-MAXLF2.zip 67 MB
If you have got any older OTA updates, could you make them available for download so I can convert them.
Nice work mate, I'm sure a lot of people will find this very useful.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
+1 very well done. People who have not recieved ota or for some reason are still on lg6 like me will love it
Could you help converting other OTA updates as well? I got a I9300XXALE8 and an OTA update of I9300XXBLFB,
Do I need a full wipe to flash them?
Thanks.

Upload it somewhere and put the link here and I will see what I can do. Use a root explorer to copy it to your sd card. Its in '/cache/fota'

Sorry that it didnt work for you guys. Your CSC must be I9300OXABLG6 and you must be on stock XXBLG6 for it to update. If you've got a branded phone it won't work either. What errors was it showing in CWM?

Glad to help. I'm just giving back what I've taken and learnt. If they release it as a ota then it should be possible. We'll have to see.

Its in the '/cache/recovery' folder. That status 7 error means it failed the assert test for the model fingerprint I believe. You can only flash this update on a XXBLG6 rom and your CSC must be I9300OXABLG6. To check what ROM and CSC your using, do this.
1. Open your keypad dialer
2. Press *#1234#
3. It should show your ROM and CSC. AP = ROM and CP = Baseband.
