Eris to v2.x, when?

[smacky]

So I downloaded the update from mediafire but haven't downloaded the patch. Has someone uploaded the patched version or am I going to have to hope that the patch file is still available by the time I get back home?

Not sure what is needed. A few more people are working on it, so someone else apart from the initial guinea pig should be able to provide instructions.

Here's a question: What about the apps we have on our 1.5 phones?
I really hope my apps still work if I take the plunge and jump to 2.1

It's probably a dumb thing to ponder, but I am dead tired, too lazy too think and blah blah blah

Nah, they should work. Unless explicitly labeled as "1.5 only" or "1.6 only", all apps should open up on 2.1.

Hold off on downloading the file. It looks like a patched version is being upped.

Don't worry, I downloaded this first one already and then saw the post.

Got patched file, awaiting instructions

Quoting sanfur over at XDA with his patch theory that I think is what we gotta do. Im trying that shit right now.

Well, someone might want to try this. I've gotten the unzip errors to go away, but I haven't tested it on an actual device. Anyone want to try? I've uploaded the (very tiny) binary patch. You'll need the bspatch utility (windows port here: .tSCc. // others). Rename the one you downloaded to something else like PB00IMG-corrupt.zip, and run this:

Code:
bspatch PB00IMG-corrupt.zip PB00IMG.zip eris-eclair.bpatch
That will create a new PB00IMG.zip that is no longer corrupt. Someone test it on a phone and let me know if it works!

7 confirmed flashes of 2.1
YOUTUBE WORKS

UPDATE: Google Goggles + Navigator on the Eris, CONFIRMED

 

[Drumminraider204]

Talked to a good friend of mine who is a VZW employee and he has seen 2.1 on the Eris, and commented that it has not been running right but said it is coming

 

[frickingphil]

I bit the bullet and am updating now. I'll get a pic once it's done =D

 

[Psilo]

listening to Joe Jackson's "Steppin Out" makes me feel important while im attempting to patch this myself

You don't say.

 

[deathratlehead]

is the facebook link working or????? I just want to know before I do this.

 

[frickingphil]

aww, it doesn't have the cool HTC reflected logo on black anymore, it's just white w/ HTC in green and "quietly brilliant" beneath it.

Didn't hear the HTC sound either. Prolly still a pre-release version =P

can any one please put some confirmation photos or a video on youtube, so that i can dive into this.

Thank you everyone for all the work and risk everyone has taken

Hey - new here as well. Been lurking around for a couple months since I got my Eris. So any speculation on if this leak will have any effect on VZW pushing out the OTA sooner? I had a dumb phone prior to my Eris and am not really familiar with how these OS updates go. I have been anxiously awaiting the 2.1 update like everyone else however I am not sure if I want to take the chance on bricking my phone - love the thing to death and its the only phone I have! Maybe this will get them moving on pushing the update?? One can only hope...

Dunno. I understand that 2.1 is running fine, they are just having problems uploading it to their OTA servers. So this shouldn't affect it if that is true.
