Help [OFFICIAL] 2.2 ota is live for evo

[ARR22]

Question.... if I updated a few days ago via leaked update .3 will I get an OTA download or will those of us that upgraded via leaked .3 not get an update via OTA?

Im in the same boat to. It looks like we got to wait for a different revision. Im sure it shouldnt be a big deal, we should get it soon enough. I think.

I got my update earlier! Fast and easy download and install.

Can u download the froyo update if your phone has been rooted??

You should, but you will lose your root.

The stock sprint rooted rom Whitslack has posted on xda-developers should work. He says so anyway. I'm waiting on battery to load it now.

Here's a link. How to start over: Fully rooted stock 1.47.651.1 in one shot (no adb!) - xda-developers

Try flashing that and then do the update (which will kill the root likely till we get a new one)
I'm using the one above now. Will report any issues.

Grabbed it via wifi at home in about 6-7 minutes. Rebooted automatically, ran through its update and done.

Total time about 20 minutes start to finish. Only problem I have which still present is the WiFi failed automatically connect. I had to stop then start it to get it going again which seems to be a recurring theme for me. Anyone else having the same problems with wifi?

For those of you wondering what you get with FROYO!

Well.... since my EVO is screwed up (touch screen issues) I'm going to install the 2.1 RUU and then check for the OTA... unless I hear any objections.... by the way, anyone know if there is a fix for scren issues. I've got phantom dialing and swiping on most days or just not touch sensitivity at all other days... my phone works the way it should 10% of the time... damn back ordered EVO's com'mon already!

Just checked for System update for the Evo and Version 2.2 is out on my Evo, downloading now. Cant wait for the install!

Hmm, mine downloaded fine but I didn't get an install prompt...

Flash is awesome. i'm not seeing added "snappiness" at all though, then again my 2.1 was snappy. Market apps weren't showing at first, but a reboot fixed that. Haven't had time to do much with it since the OTA update finished, but still seems about like the 2.1 performance i had. I'm running LauncherPro and only have a few apps and widgets running anyways, so guess i wasn't expecting to see much difference. Wifi is still showing 2 bars for me and i'm 30ft from the router, same as in 2.1. Not complaining, just making observations...

Stock keyboard is now multi-touch. I can hold 1 key while pressing others and they all work. Along with typing "kdkdkdkdkdkdkdkdkdkdkdkd" really fast lol And just when i was getting really comfy with the single touch, they went and made it better on me

Oh, and did i mention flash is still awesome, gotta be the #1 thing for me.

Downloading it now...sorry about saying the sprint rep said it was delayed...thats what they told me on the phone.

Sprint made me into a liar...those bastards

Well, I never believe low level employees.

[merkley]

Either remove the "Flash LED" app and/or try the new "Flashlight" app and try your cam again, about 20 posts on it.

 

[HeyEng]

Why do people simply post "downloading now!"...what contribution is that? Thanks so the guy who linked the "what we get w/ Froyo". Good on you!

And the 4G downloaded it (about 86 megs) in about 6 minutes. Pretty good!

I have two questions before I tell it to install, does it delete your installed apps, and does the wifis get better?

 

[cdys]

Does this help improve battery life??

My wifis are the same, and the apps are there too. I had to do a reboot to get the market to show my installed apps, but my wifis are still showing 2 bars same as before

I'm getting the white triangle with the yellow exclamation mark in it on top of the android robot. Its been about 20 mins and its just stuck on this screen. I'm updating from the OTA but I am rooted using unrevoked 3. Hope the rooting is not the cause of the delay/screw up. Sure hope i'm not bricked!

No it wont delete your existing apps. No wifi improvement that I have noticed.

 

[jonsdad]

Ive seen atleast a dozen people between here and another forum having cam problems after the OTA. Also, didnt notice you were a mod?
