Hi guys. I am in the process of flashing a ROM for my wife's D2. From all of my reading on here, it seems she should be on 2.3. However her system is still 2.2. Am I misinformed? I've hit the system update on her phone, but it says her phone is up to date. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

2.2 = Android verion
2.3.2 = Verizon update
I'm in the same situation, I'm on android 2.2 and system update says no update available. ..

You can be rooted and still receive an update, correct? I know you would lose root privledges, but I am trying to remember if I had to unroot or not.
I'm not able to get the update either (which is basically all I should be writing in this post), but I'm going to just attribute that to my flashing the tbh all in one back to froyo.

I think you need to be unrooted and have all stock apps.
So what's the update really I mean,i have android 2.2 and I think the gb is not released officially am I wrong?i have ee4

Android 2.3.3 aka Gingerbread is now available to all via OTA.
Since when, cuz a few days ago I was stock on ee4 now I'm on gumny and never saw any update msssage

I'm rooted, and the update downloaded by itself. Of course, the only way I'm gonna install it is when a version of cm7 GB is out that has amazing battery life.

Which that wouldn't even work bc its not rootable.

The CM7 has a version for the OTA GB. I've been running it since I ran the OTA.

Root using D3 method, then install the latest CM7 Nightly. I'm running it right now, overclocked to 1.3ghz. This phone is stupid fast and the battery life is killer.

Im completely unroot
Can anyone confirm that if u update with a official update, u will be unrooted
Sent from my HTC Liberty using XDA App
Absolutely, and you may very well end up in a situation where it will be incredibly hard to get rooted again.
Sent from my Liberty using XDA App
So u recommend not to update?
Sent from my Liberty using XDA App
I wouldn't unless you are having problems with the phone or you are going to send it back to art.

I unrooted last week just to see if I could just in case I had to return to AT&T, it wasn't easy, but finally got it to work. I then used the LINUX(built a LINUX: UBUNTU bootable CD) method of rooting again, went flawlessly; no issues at all.
I un-rooted last night booting into Fastboot USB and running the ATT stock ROM given on the HTC website... finished in 5 minutes. Had to fix something un-related, but it was a good test to see if I could un-root.
Then I just used unrevoked3 to root again; no problems.
Hey guys
I have been rooted with the Apex 1.4.1 rom for some time now. Recently, I read that the droid X will possibly be getting updated to gingerbread. If this is true, will I have to unroot to receive the update?
Thanks in advance!

No you don't have to unroot but you will have to flash back to stock in order to get the update OTA (it will unroot you by updating). You can do so with a nandroid, sbf, or maderstcok. Or you could just update manually when the update is released, assuming that there will be an update soon.

One way would be to sbf to froyo and then upgrade via ota. I don't know if there is a gingerbread sbf out there. Search the forum for how to sbf and google for the file.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
I gave sbf'd a few times.
Just not looking for rom at this time I just want stock rooted gb
Just gotta do research

BTW you need both rom manager and rom toolbox from the market to get the builds for the GB cm7, right now rev is the only one getting the nightlies out to download, rom manager doesn't support them yet, and don't download it from rom manager because it will brick your phone and you will have to load from sbf all over.
