[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coder_t2:
Is it possible to take a OTA update while rooted? I am still on the stock Rom. And if so, will it unroot me?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1234567188:
Nope I believe that is one of the benefits of s-off
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ikithme:
Wrong!

You can take the update, it will unroot you, AND if the new update includes a new HBOOT it will flash over and give you a security warning and/or S-ON.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] two_cents:
your best bet is to wait a few hours and someone will make a rooted version of the new ota... but chances are we will have the ota update weeks before it is ever pushed to any non rooted phones... at the moment .6 is stock.. and all the roms are .9 so all I"m waiting on is a new radio update to hopefully fix this wacky 3g signal I get
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HorsexD:
What he Said but I Think you have to be Rooted Running stock kernel/Rom for it to even take the OTA
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ikithme:
If it detects you are a lower version then the OTA it will still attempt to upgrade.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coder_t2:
Ok. From what I understand, the OTA won't automatically install if I am rooted. Which is good. But if I wanted to I could force the OTA to install?

But from what some people in this thread say, it's not worth it, and I could just get a unrooted version of the OTA from here at some point?

Is that all correct?

I am only interested because I heard there was a big OTA coming on the 16th, and I expect that it will fix a bunch of random stuff on the TB. So I'd like to get it.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pmazz850:
I'm pretty sure you need to have stock recovery installed to install the OTA. If using CWM it will not install.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] a lawless a:
Wow this is interesting...i flashed a new radio yesterday is this the new ota update.

http://feeds.feedburner.com/xda-developers/ShsH

I've hit a bump in the road for development as of the late. I have aosp booting, but haven't had the service to clone all the update libraries/modules/etc etc. What this means is practically nothing works. Pre-alpha. Though resources should push it straight to beta.

My proposal is that a group of us work around this and make a public git. Obviously I'm stuck for lack of 3G. I need the most recent aosp source in a public git and I need a manager for it. Anyone is welcome to share their commits/enhancements.

This will never be more than optimized aosp. If you wanna make it into cm7, download cm7. Android functions best the way google made it. Wimax may work, with toastcfh's permission of course (haven't asked yet)

Hope a few of you are on bard! *pirate voice* EDIT 2

ARRR! I just want to say thanks!
[EVO Shift 4G General] ahager88:
Based on a couple pms I've received - I'd like to clarify something.

I

WANT

this to become a user optimized build, but not where you get a bloated rom right off the bat and have to trim. I do NOT have a lot of development experience, or skill - just learning as I go - but if we host the main source in one location and then a few of us modify our own trees - we can utilize lunch to build aosp within certain paramaters - geared for the end user. Write a script to auto-build every version thats linked to the central git every 3 days or so - and let users add or request want they want included for them. Possibly integrate it in a simple uncomment method for those willing to compile?

If I don't want Rom Manager, then damnit! I don't want Rom Manager! (Personally love it just stressing a point. <3 @koush)

So, does this clear anything up fellas?
[EVO Shift 4G General] jesusice:
I'm still confused. Can't your goal be easily accomplished by flashing CM7 and removing the apps you don't want? If you don't want ROM Manager you don't have to, you can remove it.

I understand the concept you're going for but it sounds like a big duplication of effort.

^ Shift Faced
[EVO Shift 4G General] Scaryghoul:
No. The point is to have a full aosp rom for anyone to build off of who doesn't want a cm7 base. I see two reasons for this.

1. There seems to be a stigment attached to roms based off of cm7.

2. Having a full aosp rom might help aspiring devs/ect. for people who want to start without the bloat/features of cm7.(I say bloat because of it's massive settings/customizability & it's integration into the frameworks).

@credits ^^
[EVO Shift 4G General] ahager88:
The stigment isn't an issue for me cause I've been building cm7 AND evervolv for a while now. *both are fantastic roms, running evervolv at the moment* For me its a community helping/learning project. Anyone who's actually got time and is nice can look at commits - make suggestions, corrections. I'm tired of wanting my phone to do something and not making it happen myself.

EDIT: Hit submit on accident. Surely there are several people that want to get into android development or are trying to and aren't getting the support they need. They call it open source for a reason.
[EVO Shift 4G General] e240:

[EVO Shift 4G General] ahager88:

Must make sure phone and computer are talking to each other.

You can do this by typing "adb devices" should return a value.

Then If you type "adb reboot recovery" it will reboot your phone to recovery.

Or

Plug your phone into the charger and turn the phone off. If will cycle off then boot to recovery about a minute later. That is is you have not applied the fix for this. Nice walk around for the Black Screen though!:)
[HTC Inspire 4G] mudknot2005:
The phone and computer don't have to be talking to each other, all he has to do do is place the PD98IMG on his sd card with an adapter, and boot into hboot and it will flash the new hboot, which will rid him of the black recovery screen. Or if the phone can talk to the computer he can push it to the sd card with adb. Place the PD98IMG.zip in the tools folder of sdk Using adb devices (to see if it is connectd) adb push ./PD98IMG.zip /sdcard/

I have been rooted for like 6 months now and have never really had any issues until last week. Started getting fcs on media and a lot of reboots. Flashed a couple different ROMs and stayed away from any custom kernels still having issues. So I decided to start fresh and not use TB to restore any apps, but now I keep having problems with data not working and my apps are disappearing. The last time I flashed Sprint Lovers after wiping everything and flashing the format all .zip and then I redownloaded all of my apps from the market. Everything seemed fine for a day or two and now all hell has broke loose once again. Any one have any tips or suggestions I really don't want to unroot.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dougjamal:
Start from scratch. Copy the contents of your SD card onto your computer or external hard drive. Download a fresh copy of the rom you want to flash as well as a fresh copy of amon RA v2.3. Place the PC36IMG.zip for amon RA on the root of your card and then shutdown your device. Enter the bootloader by pressing simultaneously, the down volume button and the power button until your device starts. When it starts, you'll enter the bootloader screen and pause briefly until a few lines of text scroll across the screen. Afterwards, the bootloader will automatically detect the PC36IMG.zip file and prompt you to install. Follow the prompts to install. The installation process will last less than 10 seconds. Afterwards, reboot into recovery and then go to the wipe menu and select "wipe SD card". Your card will then be formatted. Now individually select to wipe everything in the wipe menu except the SD card, being that you just wiped it. Afterwards, select return at the top. Connect your device, if not already connected, to your computer via USB and then select the "MS-USB". A drive should appear on your computer. If you have a Mac, it will appear on your desktop. Copy the rom you want to flash onto the card. Unmount the card from the computer FIRST and then unmount it from recovery by selecting the power button. Go into the flash menu and flash the rom. Afterwards, reboot into your new homescreen and then update your profile in the settings menu if you're using a sense based rom. Hopefully, your issue will be resolved. Take care and enjoy the rest of your weekend..:)

Hi All,

I'm having this odd battery drain. I've installed Battery History and saw that under partial wake usage, "Maps" is top on the list. Even higher than "Android System".

Now, does this "Maps" refer directly to the Maps app? Or does any other app also reports as "Maps" on battery history?

Odd is that even after reboot, it still gets high partial wake usage but checking Samsung's task manager, the Maps app is not running, or at least not visible on the current tasks.

Does anyone has experienced this? I'm using Doc's ROM v9.9.5 (JS8) with Damian's Kernel and Crysis Revolution Theme, if that can be of help.

A second question: If I was to go back to an Eclair stock ROM, that would upgrade through KIES to Froyo, which version would I use? My product code is HKDXEU. Also, do I need to change bootloader if I was to do such thing? Or does Gingerbread's bootloader would work on Eclair?

I was thinking of reverting back to Eclair (repartition, 512.pit), then upgrade through Kies and then go to Doc's ROM again. Kind of really reseting from "as much original" as it could be.
