Hey all. I have an unlocked N1 which has RA recovery/backup installed?..i think, its been a long time..sorry for newbieishness(is that a word):)..Anyway..I have reset the device and now am on stock build number ERD79..firmware 2.1. If i do a wipe of the device when I restart i get the over the air update to 2.2. It downloads and verifies but when i restart i go to the bootloader? screen? and I get an install failed message.
Any help or ideas about what I am doing wrong?
Thanks.
 
I wasn't able to get my non-stock recovery to get through the update of FRF91 or 85B without errors. I was getting errors on updating the boot section of the device. I decided to revert to stock image and stock recovery - and the 91 update downloaded and updated the phone soon after. Not sure what I was missing when the custom recovery was on the phone, but at least now I am full Froyo fun.
