So I have an evo that is unrevoked and running 2.1. I want to upgrade to 2.2 and I understand that I have to download the file and rename it to update.zip and do a recovery boot. But after I download OTA I cant find the freaking file to rename it. Its not on my sdcard or on the phone. I used astro File manager to look. And I cant find anywhere to download it.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI used one click unrevoked to get me to 2.1 rev 1 That is where I am now.I tried to download 2.2 from Sprint and it started to install but locked up, had to pull battery. I assume I have to unroot back to stock, then install 2.2 and then use one click unrevolked 3.2 to root for tethering.I only want tether ability..What/where/how do I do this?
View 13 Replies View RelatedI rooted my 2.1 Desire so I could use tethering.3 days later T-Mobile release 2.2 for my phone. Im not bothered about root really, just wanted wireless tethering.I had the T-Moblie OTA update request which I did try, but it didnt work and now says i'm up to date.So my question is how do I upgrade to 2.2?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI just have a quick question for the mobile gurus here. Any perspective would be much appreciated.
I am planning to renew my contract with sprint, and receive the "new every 2" credit towards my phone. I see all the madness about pre-orders in this forum... so, my question is: If I call sprint to renew my contract and order the EVO, do you think it will be available, or will the sprint rep just tell me to piss off?
Is there anyway to preorder for people who are using their "new every 2" credit? Thanks for the insight
Is it possible for an app to upgrade itself? I am trying it but it doesn't seem to work. My app downloads its upgrade, starts the upgrade/installation process which finishes successfully but when I start the app its still the old one. When I installed my app normally I was seeing "Not granting permission android.permission.INSTALL_PACKAGES to package <package name>" in logs. So based on another thread http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/thread. I installed the app in /system/app folder so now there is no error message but result is still same. Do I need a separate installer app to upgrade my app?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm a newbie with the Hero so please excuse my ignorance. On the link provided by the 3 website the Rom upgrade available is ROM version 2.73.405.5 but the one on my phone is 2.73.771.62. Now I'm assuming that the bigger the number, the more recent the software. Am I right with this and if so, am I correct in thinking I don't need to upgrade the ROM?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI been trying to update my evo software but every time i check for an update it says that there is no updates available. I know that there is because i used to get the pop up and i always canceled it. I am currently on 1.32.651.1.
Possible reasons? I tried rooting my device but was never successful at doing it. Also i am not sure if completely restored my device after the root attempt.
Is there anyway i can upgrade from 1.5 to 2.2 without the need a flashing my mobile? Iv just got it perfect and don't want to lose anything. Is there a way i can do this as Three says if i flash i void the warranty.
View 5 Replies View Relatedso I took the plunge and threw SenseHero 2.2 on my HERO.As with many others I was curious as to why i should upgrade. Even now im still trying to find new things to do with 2.1 that i couldnt do before. I thought why have a thread that people can post new things about 2.1 ROMs so that fence sitters can have a decision. So put up the apps/widgets etc that are 2.1 only and why they are so great. Also remember to state if it is ROM dependant (Villain/SenseHero etc)I am on SenseHero 2.2 the pinch zoom in home screen that shows an overview of all your 7 screens is wonderful. It makes getting to the end screens so much quicker, and it looks super flashy.At first i didnt like the theme but now i really quite like it.Live Wallpapers & 3D gallery they are pretty nifty, however on my device were not so smooth so I uninstalled as it is really just eye candy and does not add to the use of the phone. Much the same with 3d gallery, i had a few minor problems but was happy with the original gallery so switched back. Your experience with these may differ though so they are worth a look.Bluetooth file transfer is working? Or so i have heard, i havn't tested yet though Google Goggles, Although 1.6 is required, most people are on 1.5 roms. It is a really cool app, works great when wanting an online price as opposed to a store price. Ive used it to find some info on books for uni etc. It stores your history so you can recall everything you have searched.
AOSP Keyboard, I got quite used to the HTC keyboard but once i swapper it for this there was no going back. Much quiker than HTC keyboard and a lot easier to type. Though i do miss the long press for symbols, i can live without them.As for apps and widgets, so far im not too sure. I hope some others can suggest some.
I just did a hard reset on my phone but it seems as if the bootup screen ((Freshhhh logo) still come up every time I restart the phone. I also have problems installing 2.2 OTA from HTC.

Since I am going through a refi on my mortgage, I didn't want another credit check. Sprint confirmed for me, in writing, that a new check is not required if you are going through an upgrade...only at "original" activation.

It's a G-Sensor calibration tool so nothing exciting but I wasn't expecting anything ever again after getting 2.1!
Screen:
I had no data loss problems whatsoever during the update.

Will post what's happened after the update completes.
Update:
Took about five minutes for the device to fully reboot into the phone after the progress bar reached the end so don't be tempted to turn it off during this process.
I was then presented with this screen:

I was informed of the new android update and the perks mentioned seemed pretty impressive. Upon installing the new update I regretted it instantly; the phone is slower, the layout is ugly and choppy unlike the sleek and smooth previous layout and the backup and restore is abysmal, all of my contacts are registered in the messaging (which also looks awful and is terribly confusing) but not in my contacts section. Is there anyway to reverse the upgrade, because I seriously dislike the new one. It is awful to put it bluntly.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI've had my Motorola Droid for almost a year, and I'm due an upgrade. I'm with Verizon Wireless btw.The EVO really has everything I want (Kickstand, Front camera, huge screen, HDMI) but it's Sprint only. I heard rumors and saw pictures of an EVO-esque phone (not the Merge) hitting verizon in I don't know how long.What phone should I get? I don't care about a physical keyboard. Id like a big screen, HDMI, and a front facing camera, any phones on Verizon like this, or upcoming? (Not the X).

She wants to transfer the upgrade from her dad's line (they're on a family plan) to her number, but whenever we try to do that on the Verizon website it doesn't stick.Is there a way to permanently transfer the upgrade to her number? Otherwise, could I order the Incredible under her dad's number, and then activate it with her number once we get it? I've heard mixed answers as to whether or not Wirefly/Sears Wireless will charge an ETF for this action.
