I have currently been testing the method of rooting leaked 2.1 phones. There was a little discussion running in that thread (and other threads, I've found) that poses the question whether or not the RUU is the same as 2.1 Leak v3. The RUU I'm using is referenced here: [ROM] Official HTC Desire RUU ROMS and OTA Update URLs - xda-developers - which can be found here:
http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Desire/RUU_Desire_C_Verizon_WWE_2.36.605.1_release_signed _with_driver.exe

Leak 2.1 v3 I'm using is referenced here: HTC DROID Eris OS 2.1v3 download -- which can be found here: PB00IMG.zip. So, the process that I've been using to root these phones involves flashing the RUU OTA onto the phone. With some help from user bftb0, I have taken the time to do the analysis. How did I get system.img and boot.img off of the RUU OTA, you might ask? Well, after I flashed the RUU OTA onto the phone, I went through the Incredible/Slide root method to root the phone I'm working with (without changing any phone settings within Sense).

After getting adb to recognize the device in recovery, I took the steps necessary to flash Amon_RA's recovery. I then took a Nandroid backup of my phone and extracted the system.img and boot.img files off of the SD card where the Nandroid backup was stored. Then, I used unyaffs to unpack system.img into 2 separate directories, and used split_bootimg.pl to unpack boot.img. So, for split_bootimg.pl I did this, starting at the directory where each respective boot.img file is:

HTC Droid Eris :: Checksum Proof That 2.1 Leak V3 Is 99% Identical To OTA 2.1

May 14, 2010

I just spent half an hour going through each file in the OTA upgrade ZIP and comparing its CRC (checksum) to the same exact file in the "leak v3" PB00IMG.ZIP, including all of the files inside system.img. Process: First off, just by opening the two ZIP files with 7-Zip I can see that the boot.img, radio.img, and recovery.img are identical. In both ZIPs, their CRCs are EA7388FA, 54C41EEC, and 3F0153F1 respectively.

Since the OTA breaks down system.img into just the files that need updating (for the purpose of keeping the file size as low as possible), the only way to compare the files with system.img in "leak v3" was to use the root ROM created from "leak v3". (Thank goodness there's an unadulterated ROM of it, so the original CRCs are intact!) One by one, I compared the CRCs of the files in the OTA's system folder with the same files in the "leak v3" system folder. Findings: The files that are in the OTA are completely identical to the ones in the leak v3 system.img, with only one exception: The OTA contains an additional app called UpgradeSetup.apk. Obviously, it's only necessary for executing the upgrade..............

HTC Eris :: On Phone ROM Checksum Verifier

Sep 5, 2010

On-Phone ROM Checksum Verifier
Download: MD5-Checksum-v2.2.apk (new version!)

Changes in the 2.2 version include:
1. Larger rows and font for easier/better file-selection
2. Sorted list of files displayed in file-selector
3. Retain directory between each file-selection
4. Verify read-access of selected file to prevent force-close
5. Test file's suffix to warn if non jar-type file is selected for jar-verification
6. Add menu support (help, change log, acknowledgements)

Download: MD5-Checksum-v2.1.apk
This version is detailed in a post over at XDA (xda-developers - View Single Post - [Begging] Devs - please publish your MD5's) but its highlights are as follows:
- Still includes all of the functionality of the previous versions
- Now includes two jar file verification functions (they both basically do the same thing; radio button JV1 selects an explicit jar verification (read jar, calculate SHA1 digest, compare to manifest); radio button JV2 just uses the implicit JarFile Java method of jar verification and is much faster since its not doing a second, separate validation (23 seconds for method JV2 on a 100MB ROM vs. 2.5 minutes for method JV1 (all on my Droid X)).
- Now has a file-selector instead of requiring manual filename text input (you can still do this too)
Download: MD5 Checksum v1.1.apk (free!)
Download: checksumdb.txt (save to either /sdcard/download or /sdcard)
[Code]

is there a way to get rid of the constant message telling me I have an update ready to be installed? Or delete this update I have downloaded in order to stay on 1.5 without the reminders?After downloading I stopped short of installing the update thinking maybe I should check forums and see if there are any probs. Sure enough, it looks like that's all there is.

Motorola Droid :: Clockwork Recovery - Always Getting MD5 Checksum Error

May 2, 2010

Using Rom Manager, Clockwork recovery, on any ROM, currently Pete's V1. I have yet to successfully restore a previously backed up ROM without getting the MD5 checksum error. I've tried both from inside Rom Manager, manage backups, and booting into recovery and hitting the backup directory. File names are left at default, as 2010-05-02-02.42.46. Frustrating as I wind up having to start from scratch if a ROM install fails.

HTC Droid Eris :: When Do Apps Check For Updates?

Jan 16, 2010

This morning I power cycled my Eris for for first time in a week or so. After that, the notificaton area said I have four updates waiting.I think I selected the "My Tracks" app for update, but when I did, it told me to make sure I had at least 40% battery charge, the phone would be unusable during the update, etc., and it proceeded to install the OTA update to build 1.17.605.1.That's fine, but now the phone doesn't show any apps with available updates.Will these apps automatically notify me again that updates are available? Do all apps routinely check?

HTC Droid Eris :: Check A Text Message While Browsing Web?

Apr 27, 2010

Is there a way that I can check a text message while on the web, then return to the same spot I was?

I'm pretty sure that if I open up the browser, most of the time it will take you back to the last page you were on.

But if i click on a link in gmail that takes me to this site, for instance, then I get a text message, i cant read my text message without having to back out of the webpage i'm on and loosing my spot.
Which is pretty frustrating.

Is there something I'm overlooking?
Or maybe a different browser?

HTC Droid Eris :: Phone Doesn't Automatically Check For Emails

How do you make it so the phone doesn't automatically check for emails? I get so few that it would be better for me to be able to simply do a "manual" check when I want, rather than have the phone check all the time. Besides, I don't NEED to be notified every time I get an email since most are crap anyway.
