Sorry for the misunderstanding, I wanted to say that I tried this and it worked. I didn't ask for any confirmation.
[Droid Incredible General] schwartzman93:
Ooh okay, sorry...and thanks for the confirmation :)
[Droid Incredible General] lamusician:
Not sure if this will help anyone but I was running the leaked 8/1 OTA version. Used @DiegoAMejia's method to downgrade and as I was about to start downloading update.zip, I decided to check System Update for ****s and giggles. Lo and behold, Verizon is downloading the update.

So for those of you still running the leaked OTA and want the uber-official one, I guess that's one way of doing...
[Droid Incredible General] maurlife:
Is My Face Red?

Ooops! Thanks for your patient answers. I am obviously a bit confused. I was hoping someone was talking about getting the OTA update OTA, not updating from a copy someone else saved. Sorry if I annoyed you.

Uh.... help? :confused:
[Droid Incredible General] schwartzman93:
Im noticing some people are having trouble with the link i have provided for the OTA...please be patient and i will get a new one up as soon as possible
[Droid Incredible General] UgXvibe:
Ok, I have been trolling these forums for a long time too chicken to root or change anything. Well, I could not wait any longer for Verizon to give me Froyo so I finally took a chance and decided to use this method to update my baby to 2.2. Fully expecting a crash or brick a crossed my fingers and wiped away a lot of sweat but.... SUCCESS!! You guys are freakin' awesome. Thanks to everyone involved in this hackery! :)

P.S. For chickens like me this does take 8-10 minutes easily to update but I have attached a few pics of the process.

P.S.S Pictures are kinda out of order.. sry
[Droid Incredible General] trombone dixie:
Worked flawlessly, thanks!!!

it just feels so right...
[Droid Incredible General] timcreech:
Brick

Tried applying over the earlier update and now I have a brick.

The power button doesn't do anything. The volume down tap power doesn't do anything. No lights when I plug it in.

Any thoughts how to do CPR on this droid? Another key sequence to jump start it?
[Droid Incredible General] ACD168:
If no lights when plugged in to charge, sorry bub but you gots da bricks. take it to verizon tell them something happened during the OTA update. they'll replace it.

Froyo Problems?

Great thread - I now have Froyo! Is anyone else seeing a change in the calendar app? When I see a list of my events and click on one, so the details screen is open for that one event, there is no longer an "edit" option. I have to reverse back to the list of events, and long press on that event to get the Edit option.

Also: now when I connect my phone to my pc via USB cable, I get an auto pop-up on my PC about Vcast Media Manager - every time. So annoying! And it no longer shows my SD card in Windows Explorer, it just shows "Verizon Mobile (E:) and when I click on that drive it only has a couple things listed, which look like are causing the auto pop-up for Vcast. How can I get rid of this?
[Droid Incredible General] timcreech:
Yeah, went through that dance and have one showing up tomorrow. Was hoping to revive this one though.
[Droid Incredible General] Sniperl3ait:
Nvm I fixed it. Apparently Windows 7 and/or Vista users will need to rename it from your android phone via a file manager. **IMPORTANT** Your computer will not know the difference, and will not display it as being renamed, however your phone will. You must rename the file to update.zip from your phone.
[Droid Incredible General] bman12479:
If you already had the 2.15 radio and did the whole OTA than it tried to reinstall the 2.15 radio over itself when you flash the same exact radio over the same version it corrupts the whole phone and bricks. Now if you install a different radio it'll be ok but DO NOT flash the same radio over itself.

E: Error in /sdcard/update.zip

Installation Aborted

I am getting a similar error above. I have stock 2.1 ROM with S-off and stock recovery. The only thing I did was moved all the bloated ware to an app disabled folder (city ID, twitter..etc) and on the above message it mentioned something about unable to verify CityID...could it be that the update won't work if it can't find the original crapware on the ROM? My baseband and software version match the requirement for this upgrade so do I need to move all that crap back before the upgrade?
[Droid Incredible General] sanamkan:
Also missing CityID. Got ahead of myself and deleted it rather than backing up. Any chance someone has the file laying around? Could really use an upload.
[Droid Incredible General] ACD168:
never mess with signed .zip unless you a re-signing it
[Droid Incredible General] Solomente:
Worked like a charm for me (have S-OFF phone but otherwise stock - no ROMs flashed). The reboot takes FOREVER so just be patient. I swear it got stuck on the droid eye for at least 5 minutes and then still needed another 10 to finish booting up and applying everything
[Droid Incredible General] amdpimp:
Woke up to the OTA this morning. Life is good.
[Droid Incredible General] brianhenny:
Has anyone figured out how to do this on a mac? Thanks if you can help :)
[Droid Incredible General] G3FiveX:
Ha ha ha, now I feel stupid! That's what my problem was, I renamed the file "update.zip", not just "update" assuming it would figure it out on its own! You have single handedly made my week and its only Tuesday! You're my hero!
[Droid Incredible General] greno1:
I don't know how to fix it, but I think I see what's happening. When the phone is in Charge Only mode, the phone now looks like a CD-ROM to the computer, and AutoStart is running autorun.inf. Since it looks like a CD-ROM, you can't delete the autorun.inf file. A temporary workaround would be to go into control panel -> AutoPlay and change the default behavior of Software And Games to something other than Install Or Run Program (like Take No Action or Ask Me Every Time).

The problem with this approach is I think it changes it for all insertable media, not just the DI drive.

Another work around is to change default connection type on the DI to something other than Charge only, like Disk drive.

It would be great if someone could figure out how to disable the CD ROM image somehow or alter the autorun.inf file.
[Droid Incredible General] omgi0wn:
So can I be rooted and still apply this update? I want to root but also want to get the update and not have to wipe my phone.
[Droid Incredible General] jselden:
I installed earlier today. it has been working like a charm. I unrooted and performed the update 1.22.605.0 then to 2.2. lost no settings and everything works great right now.
[Droid Incredible General] sharra1:
HELP!!!!

its telling me e: signature verification failed Installation aborted... how do i fix this?? i factory reset and wiped cache still nothing???
[Droid Incredible General] MaxedPower:
i noticed that when i downloaded the file, it placed the update.zip file in a folder labeled as 'emmc'. i'm certain that i dropped the file in the root folder of my sdcard. any ideas how to fix?
[Droid Incredible General] mickym5:
I've been reading forever and cannot find an answer. I have

Firmware version 2.1-update1

baseband version 1.00.03.04.06

kernel 2.6.29-cc1c2268 htc-kernel@and18-2 #1

build number 1.22.605.0 CL161493 release-keys

software number 1.22.605.0

is all this talk about the software number having to end with .2 to upgrade to 2.2 for this leak or the official OTA also. To clarify, will I receive the 2.2 update OTA with my software number ending with .0 instead of .2?
[Droid Incredible General] omgi0wn:
Still wondering if I can be rooted and apply the update. Thanks!
[Droid Incredible General] SmackithTheDown:
W00T! It worked without any trouble! Android 2.2 FTW! Although it did get stuck on the

Droid eye boot animation for about 3 minutes after that it was smooth sailing!
[Droid Incredible General] gentleart:
I have a slight problem that will be easy for you guys. I can find the root folder for my phone, but not for my sd card.

Can someone please steer me in the right direction? I'm using astrofile,

Thanks. :)
[Droid Incredible General] UgXvibe:
I personally found it easier to hook up to a PC via USB and just drag the file into the SD Card root. There is no root folder, just drag it into the sd card where all the folders are.
[Droid Incredible General] gentleart:
I have Windows 7. Isn't that a problem?
[Droid Incredible General] UgXvibe:
Well, it worked on Vista, not sure about 7 though.
[Droid Incredible General] gentleart:
Thank you. I'm going to rename the file where it is and see if I can figure this out.
[Droid Incredible General] parcou:
I am 2.1 stock with unrevoked root... Where can I find ClockworkMod recovery to add to my sd card...?
[Droid Incredible General] gentleart:
OMG! It looks like it is working! Astro saves my downloads in a download file, so I copied and pasted the file straight into the sd card where all of the main files are.

Thank you for trying to help me.
[Droid Incredible General] UgXvibe:
NP, and I only tried to help because I got my Froyo earlier.. I am by no means one of these gurus.. :)
[Droid Incredible General] gentleart:
Neither am I or else I wouldn't be asking stupid questions. lol

Thanks to the couple of people who went through the trouble of uploading the zip file and posting directions on this forum. It was cool to watch this unfold (I watched 3 message boards) and enjoy the frozen yogurt of someone else's labor. :D
[Droid Incredible General] schwartzman93:
I updated the info...as far as we know, it cannot work in clockwork recovery
[Droid Incredible General] gentleart:
My phone is super sluggish now, even after a couple of reboots.
[Droid Incredible General] schwartzman93:
Some people reported FroYo running slower...it has nothing to do with doing it manually...it will work fine eventually
[Droid Incredible General] caifan:
So as I was going from the RUU 2.2 to 2.1 so that I could use the update.zip file.....as soon as I reverted to 2.1 and booted up, the REAL 2.2 OTA was waiting for me and I promptly upgraded over the air. I know the RUU and OTA are the same build but my OCD was telling me otherwise. Life is good. ;)
[Droid Incredible General] gentleart:
Yeah, it seems like it's better already.

I'm so happy because I can FINALLY watch the Big Brother live feeds on my Incredible! :D
[Droid Incredible General] schwartzman93:
That's great! :D...lol, I just realized they moved a few characters on the keyboard x)

1.22.605.0 to 1.22.605.2 worked for me.

Thanks for all the help on this. I rooted, unrevoked forever, s-off, went back to stock 2.1 , i thought, but i was having the error... i needed to go to the 1.22.605.2, did that and oh ya...

got the message Congrats your phone was updated to 3.21.605.1

froyo updated without a hitch.

Oh you had two links for the 605.0 to 605.2 update.. the www-megaupload-com/?d=8M3RTMTZis not right as it's 90 some megs and the real one needed is 3.5mb with the link OTA_IncredibleC_Verizon_WWE_1.22.605.2_1.22.605.0_release_sign.a33bc3bf

Thanks!!
[Droid Incredible General] gentleart:
I just noticed that facebook syncs birthdays to my calendar. lol
[Droid Incredible General] schwartzman93:
Me too, haha...i think its great :D
[Droid Incredible General] UgXvibe:
I can feel the Froyo love... :)
[Droid Incredible General] gentleart:
Is that what this tingly feeling is - love?

Well, now I know...
[Droid Incredible General] TreyDW82:
Thanks. I used the second link and followed instructions.

worked great :D
[Droid Incredible General] schwartzman93:
I have kind of a dumb question, lol...but how do I set a profile pic?
[Droid Incredible General] UgXvibe:
For you or someone else? Just hold on their name and click the camera next to their name on top.

NM,., you mean on the forums.. User CP up top, then Profile Pic on the left. I have one set but it isnt showing up for some reason
[Droid Incredible General] gentleart:
Click on the User CP link and go to Edit Profile Picture.

Watch your filesize. ;)
[Droid Incredible General] BigNate:
yea but after yo do the update flash the clockworkmod recovery back to your phone then install the superuser permissions you can find the files you need at unrevoked>droid incredible>unrevoked forever>files will be in there
[Droid Incredible General] UgXvibe:
Weird, I set mine to 100X67 and it still is not working..
[Droid Incredible General] gentleart:
It took me a while to figure it out. The avatar and profile picture are two different things.
[Droid Incredible General] gentleart:
I see it! :)
[Droid Incredible General] UgXvibe:
Yes! Got it! Thanks
[Droid Incredible General] schwartzman93:
My profile pic isnt showing up either...but now i know how to do it, thanks guys
[Droid Incredible General] gentleart:
You're welcome, but I think we derailed this thread. :(
[Droid Incredible General] schwartzman93:
Yea we did, lol...back on topic guys! x)
[Droid Incredible General] parcou:
I did this and have 2.2 from a 2.1 unrevoke root. I did add the ClockworkMOD manually but my only question as a newbie is why did I have to do the payload...?

Just asking...all is working and 2.2 re-rooted stock...
[Droid Incredible General] kubla1:
Got OTA

I received my update this evening.

It was 93.7 MB, took about an hour to update, and used half of my battery life.

I now am running Android (Froyo) 2.2 on my Incredible.:)
[Droid Incredible General] schwartzman93:
Is anyone else experiencing issues with flash...like when I watch a video, the sound is in slow motion

-note: this doesn't have to do with installing the update manually!

[Droid Incredible General] schwartzman93:
Why are you trying to install the 1.22.605.2 update if your phone already has it?
[Droid Incredible General] thekwijibo:
I'm trying to update the firmware from 2.1 to 2.2

I was under the impression that this update.zip would do just that.
[Droid Incredible General] schwartzman93:
Sorry, i misread the zip...i dont understand why it keeps promting that for you, i had no issue with the update

...i might be able to remotely assist you, what kind of computer do you have...windows or mac?
[Droid Incredible General] thekwijibo:
Currently running Windows 7. Not really sure how remote assistance would help however. Though, at this point I'm up for trying anything if you got any ideas.
[Droid Incredible General] schwartzman93:
Well i just wanted to make sure everything as far as the initial setup is correct, because that seems to be the problem most people are having

if you dont want me to...the only thing i can suggest is waiting for Verizon to send it OTA, sorry :/
[Droid Incredible General] thekwijibo:
No worries. I'd appreciate the help. The "initial setup" you refer to, is that renaming the file to "update.zip"? (I've done that about 10 times various different ways)

If you'd be willing to take a stab at it, I'll send you my IP address.
[Droid Incredible General] schwartzman93:
Well im talking about ensureing that its on the SD card and not your phone itself but i was actually gonna tell you to use this program for the remote connection

...http://www.4shared.com/file/aI_WeWN7/update.html
[Droid Incredible General] thekwijibo:
Yeah, I've verified that it is in fact on my SD card and not my phone, and I have downloaded that file off the 4shared server just as an extra "insanity check" then tried to update with the exact same results as before.

Thanks for the help though. Looks like I'm stuck waiting for Verizon to get their act together.
[Droid Incredible General] schwartzman93:
im sorry :/
[Droid Incredible General] BadBoy5537:
the update installed fine all of a sudden the phone reboots and now it keeps rebooting on start up ?? any idea for fixes
[Droid Incredible General] schwartzman93:
Your phone may just have to air itself out...the homescreens kept jumping around on my phone for a little bit, but it fixed itself eventually...if this process keeps happening, let me know

-I honestly doubt though that it has to do with updating the phone manually...most of the issues that people are having with FroYo doing it manually are the same issues people have had getting the OTA from Verizon
[Droid Incredible General] BadBoy5537:
ok thanks ya ii finally was able to get it stable last night and then i went to play with it this morning and it does the same rebooting ill leave it alone for awhile
[Droid Incredible General] schwartzman93:
Better Directions?

I posted this in the OP...can someone please test it!
[Droid Incredible General] ryanvm:
The simplified instructions definitely DO NOT WORK

schwartzman93 -

I just tried the simplified instructions (installing to device memory and trying to prompt it to recognize the update.zip by going to 'About phone'). I can report that unfortunately that technique definitely does not work.

The original instructions involving using the SD card and the recovery steps worked just fine.

Thanks for your work!
[Droid Incredible General] spence341:
I thought the same thing, and downloaded both to my laptop. When they were both dowloaded they had the same file size. I used the update.zip file from the megaupload site. I sent it to my SD card and folowed the steps... done with no issues.
[Droid Incredible General] gentleart:
Just in case someone has the same problem I had:

I had to use the link in the second post through my phone. Download the zip file. Rename the zip file to update.zip. This is where I had the problem...move (copy) the file onto the main part of your SD card NOT in your SD card's download folder. Then follow the rest of the directions from the first post. This is all done without connecting to a computer.
[Droid Incredible General] bamadroid:
Need some help.. My recovery hasn't worked since I upgraded to the 2.05.00.06.11 baseband. I've tried going back to stock with the PB31IMG file, but it gives me an error message. So pretty much I'm stuck, can't downgrade or upgrade to 2.2. Any help would be greatly appreciated how to get out of this mess. Also, I noticed alot of people saying you had to be on 1.22.605.2 software, I'm on 1.36.605.0.... I'm lost
