Nexus One update: Frg83d

I just got the OTA as well. It gave it to me in two parts.. I dunno if everyone got it that way? I was still on 2.2 so I thought maybe that was why I got it in two parts? the second part is 4 mbs, atleast for me.. cause I was on 2.2 still. NO GINGERBREAD, SUCH A TEASE

Nope.. I got it in the 1 part update.

Though.. when I first got the replacement Nexus One. It came with 2.2 stock.. then it had a 2 part update.

My guess.. is this your first OTA? If so.. then that's probably why. One part update, is so your Nexus can receive updates. And the 2nd part update.. is the update it self.

someone please clue me in on how this works.

I read about an update being available and saw a download link to a zip file. So I got the zip and unzipped it but I dont see any way to install it. It became a few folders with a whole bunch of stuff in them and few .apk scattered here and there. I didnt install any of the apk files but I am just wondering what should i do with all this unzipped content. For now I am leaving it, but can someone tell me what I should look for.

thanks

You are tryin to manually update it?? sounds like it.. so use that guide on how to do it.. Pretty easy once you know how.

Guide works the same for the new update!

I have frf91 rooted. I have rom manager. I have flashed clockworkmod recovery.

This morning I was told of the 2 part OTA update. I chose OK. Reboot took me to clockworkmod, which told me the signature verification failed! What's the deal with that?

I'm thinking I'd like to apply the update, even though I know I'll lose root. I figure I can get it back easily enough after. What should I do?

could someone provide the upgrade infos ? as in what crap it updates :))

The Froyo framework has been patched, as has the applications debugger. When we look at the system applications, each has a small patch, but Vending (the Android Market, which is now at Version 2.12), the Google services framework, and the GoogleEmail application (not Gmail) has a larger patch in place. There's also a small patch to the stock recovery
Nexus One gets an update to FRG83D (no, it's still not Gingerbread) | Android Central

Haven't gotten the OTA yet, lol.

Just in case anyone wonders, this breaks 2 root exploits (SuperOneClick and VISIONary) and contains a newer version of the Market.
Since I'm a root noob (yes I know...I still haven't rooted >_>; still overwhelmed with the reading materials) So if I do the SuperOneClick to root prior to the FRG83D OTA...would that mean I can manually get the update right after since I wouldn't have a custom ROM on and I'll still be rooted? lol.
