[cstavaru]

Hi guys,

I found a valid download location for those who didn't manage to get the Android 2.2 Froyo firmware until it was removed:

Good luck !

Being of a cautious nature & unwilling to "brick" my N1... I'd value reassurance: Could anyone who hasn't posted only once & who has used this file from this source confirm/deny it runs on an N1 & appears to be FroYo??

Cheers!

Or can someone provide an MD5 hash or similar for the original Froyo source against this one?
I agree with being cautious of a 1 post only member posting files.

Its just the upgrade file. Only 44 MB at download. True source file i assume would be much larger package.

cstavaru is such a great guy. Not only did he post that link but he also put me in contact with a Nigerian prince that he knows, and I'm going to get $50m just for helping move some money out of Nigeria using my bank account.

VERY slow download off a Romanian site... I call suspect...

edit: Wow, an hour to download 44.4MB? You can get it many other places faster... lol

Here is the MD5 info on the official one I used:

md5sum signed-passion-FRF50-from-ERE27.1e519a24.zip

5911bc88f5f9ddd25ed918a98f309ae6 signed-passion-FRF50-from-ERE27.1e519a24.zip

exit: Better yet, here is my DropBox link to download the file. You can use the above MD5 to verify, you can find the MD5 off the net to make sure I am not trying to cause problems. Let me know how the speeds are, if they are too slow, then I can upload to a mirror for sure.

Hey Talderon, were you able to confirm if the file is legit?

The link above, I stopped because it was going to take over an hour to download and the fact that I didn't get good vibes from it coming from a One Post user and it was on a Romanian site that I could not verify.

Guys, the original link is legit ! I personally used it to install Froyo on my Nexus One. I am a first time poster because when I realized that the original link has been removed I figured this is the community that needs it and I registered in order to post it here for whoever needs it.

You can check the MD5...its the correct one.

No prob.

We have to be careful since there are those out there that will join and post stuff just to cause trouble. Sorry to suspect you on this, but it did seem a little out of sorts to have someone join to just post a link...

Either way, we appreciate you posting and responding to this thread. I'll try and download it and verify, but will take a while since it is really a slow site.

That's sweet! Google don't even care that you install it manually! Also, it doesn't void your warranty either!

We can't allow direct links to firmware downloads, legitimate or not. While the OS itself is open-source, the apps shipped with it are copyrighted by Google and hot-linking could be seen as facilitating distribution.

Hi Talderon,

Could you confirm that the MD5 code you posted was from the update taken directly from the Google servers? Ive seen a few mirrors that have the same checksum, just wanted to be 100% certain before I apply it to mine.

Thanks in advance

Yes it was. The MD5 I posted was the one directly from Google.
