The Official "Can someone please get us an Update.zip" Thread.

[evicid]

Ok, I took the plunge and updated my phone just now using the zip file from the link. Works great!

And there is something different, the RUU doesn't come with uptodate gmail, this does. not even too mention if it went through the stock recovery it is the official.

 

[TonyG916]

wouldn't download for me...gave me an installation error. any suggestions? and yes, i downloaded to root of sd card, renamed it to update.zip.

 

[jes0212]

Has anyone received the zip yet? If not I know where to get it. And it works.

Are you on the STOCK recovery, and also you NEED to be on the last 2.1 baseband version 1.22.605.2

Baseband version or software version?

 

[tmoney468]

Just installed it from the update.zip, I was getting an error saying file not found, realized that the update.zip had to be copied to the root of the phone storage, not the root of the SD card i have installed. Everything seems to have installed fine!

 

[jes0212]

I got the official ota update. A friend of mine got the zip file. I just downloaded it and it works.

 

[ACD168]

Sorry brother, good catch, I meant software verison... baseband is the radio, ima dummy, thanks.

I just unrooted from the 2.2RUU and did this, works great, and it IS different, this has the up to date gmail the RUU doesnt, there could be other things different as well!, now we just need to wait for the awesome devs to make roms based on this! and its "OFFICIAL"!!! lolz

 

[merickson598]

I just installed it and it works great. Already have Chrome to Phone up and running and it is fantastic!

This did not wipe my phone.

my software number is 1.22.605.0

how the hell do you get 1.22.605.2?

 

[TonyG916]

i have a virgin phone...never rooted it

 

[literacolax]

Now that this link has come out in this forum, it will only be a matter of hours before this thing spreads like a virus all over the internet......

 

[rcrott1]

my software number is 1.22.605.0

how the hell do you get 1.22.605.2?

weird. mine is the 1.22.605.2

Fresh meat lol. tony, go to settings about phone and system updates and see if you have anything there.

 

[ACD168]

That version is old and you cannot use the official 2.2 update.zip without being on the latest software. I wrote up a guide man. Enjoy.


INSTRUCTIONS GETTING TO UP-TO-DATE 2.1 1.22.605.2


1) download the last 2.1 RUU from here - Index of /shipped/Incredible

2) open the RUU, don't use it though, just open it

3) go to start menu, search programs and files, and type "%TEMP%"

4) Now You'll see a bunch of folders that are named like this "{6D62E500-13A0-40F7-966B-A84B121949CA}"

5) click through them until you find another folder like "{6D62E500-13A0-40F7-966B-A84B121949CA}" and click in that and find a file called "ROM.zip" - Once you find this, click out of the RUU.

6) Now, rename this "ROM.zip" to "PB31IMG.zip" and put on the root of the SD card.

7) Power down the phone, turn back on by holding vol - down, and power to get into HBOOT.

8) When it asks if you want to update, click yes.

9) Let it do it's thing.

10) Continue with the OP directions to get you some "OFFICIAL 2.2 FROYO!!!"

 

[jayjay1122]

weird. mine is the 1.22.605.2

IIRC, the 1.22.605.0 to 1.22.605.2 was apparently changed back in May when the Exchange update was pushed.

I will look to see if I have the software docs saved from back then to confirm.

 

[ACD168]

Fresh meat lol. tony, go to settings about phone and system updates and see if you have anything there.

This won't work because the OTA update servers are doing the 2.2 OTA. it won't push an old OTA esp. with all the clutter pushing this out. He can either update doing the RUU method I posted, OR wait for the OTA which he will get the 2.2 notice for. not 2.1
