[Q] Upgrading gingerbread - Droid X General

I'm currently on Liberty v0.1 (.588) and would like to get to .596
Can I just flash p3droid's zip over my system in order to get it? I have .12P radio and all the other requirements, but I'm wondering if being on Liberty changes that.
Also, would I need to wipe?
Edit: Actually, would it be possible to flash CM7 over my current system?
Thanks in advance

No, You will need to SBF back to Froyo 2.3.340. From there you can install CM7.

Also, I had found another post for easy SBF back to Froyo:

Hope this info helps.

actually, he can install cm7 regardless of what rom he's on. TBH made an all in one file to do this. It's in the first post of the cm7 link you provided.

Thank you so much! I just wanted to confirm that I was reading that correctly. Also, I'm aware of how to SBF, I would just rather not have to go through it.
So just format system (and all of the others), mount, then install? No wipe?
Edit: Just read the second link Lofi Goosh posted. That is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen.

thats correct.
there is no reason to wipe cuz doing the formats take care of that.

In the words of GLaDOS...
Here come the test results: You are a [wonderful] person.

I think there's a link to an RUU file somewhere in this forum. Search around.

I saw the RUU, but I thought that was the RUU for the original 2.2. I didn't think it included the OTA update.

Ah, I don't think it does, but this forum has instructions for manually pushing that update.
I think someone around here also posted a nandroid of oem, so if you root and install clockwork recovery you can nandroid back that way.
I was hoping for a stock rom post OTA just so it would make it easier for me to attempt to customize my own rom. I wanted to make a senseless barebones version of the stock OS for myself. I'm very new to rom building so I figured a post OTA rom was the easiest way to start.

No worries, we just get A LOT of redundant questions on this board so it's a good habit to search first.
Please post questions in Q&A section.
At 25.11.2010 there is no RUU with 2.2.1 (build version more than : 1.14.531.1)

Your phone has this already (out of the box) and yes it will wipe everything from your phone.
Thanks! this let me restore everything back to stock and put s-on back. I had to exchange the thunder due to the backlight bleeding through the black paint around the bottons.
My Tbolt has this same issue and I'd like to exchange. Did Verizon give you any hassle when exchanging it? I'm rooted and will need to flash back to stock as soon as I can DL this file...

Yes they did. Said it existed on all of the new TB's they've sold and would not exchange the phone for that reason. It's not really that bad but in the dark, it's annoying.
Grabbing with a downloader and then editing this post with a mediafire link. The only good site for uploads other than my server IMHO

it'll restore your phone to an out of the box state.
what for?
my phone is already at the original state...
or is it like if you brick it or jailbreak it or something?
If the rooting process gets messed up, you'll be glad you have this file.
So this removes Root ???? I am looking just to update my radio ?? Is there something for that ?
I rename this to pb05IMG correct then put on sdcard and install via hboot?

Is the webtop hack already in the Gingerblur 3.1 rom?

I would normally do the research on here myself, but it won't let me search the Gingerblur thread because i don't have 10 posts yet, so i figured i get one more post out of the way.
I am already rooted and i am on 1.8.3. I also have the Webtop hack. I want to install my first rom, gingerblur, but i want to make sure that i will have the webtop hack as well. Thanks.
nope it doesn't by default but you can still install it. that or wait till 3.5 is out and it will include it again.

Yeah, it didn't work after installing gingerblur, but after installing the webtop zip found on the thread page, it worked like a wonder.
now go to about phone and see if your still on 1.8.3 and 2.2.2. More then likely it reverted you back to 1.5.7 it has done it to me 3 times now so instead of doing that method im going to push the 2 apk files

Atrix RADIOS

Hey guys!
I noticed that some of you were having difficulty upgrading/downgrading radios, so I make a thread about radios. I will also post the instructions on how to flash them.
At different firmware and different radio devices produce different effects, therefore, to achieve the required parameters (signal level, power consumption is to try different radio firmware. Flashed the radio at any time on any firmware.
Radio have a regional dependence is not important which method to sew through RSD CWM or fastbut, you still need to put the radio in your area, just not someone else's proshetsya. Radio for AT&T , all the other radio for the rest of.
When you install some firmware on your radio may not display the signal level, this is not anything terrible, the battery will not sit down quickly.

Sorry, but would have made more sense to get everything you needed before creating this thread, and actually have all the radio info posted. Thread is pointless until you have done what you say you are doing, is a waste of time for people who will now visit it, and the thanks you are receiving are pointless also, because all you have done is post that you intend to do something!
For a start maybe you can post procedure to extract radio.img from sbf

Well, point to a topic which has all the versions of the radio?
You intention may be good, but making a thread to point towards another thread is pointless... until you get your thread done, open it. These kinda "coming soon" threads are pretty useless.

OP your intention was good thank you for doing this. But as others have said, just make sure to not post something until you have all your links and information set. And also, keep in mind we try and keep the clutter to a minimum so don't create a thread unless there actually isn't one related to what you're searching for or looking to do.
