Thanks for the instructions..but again...is their a way i can just get the update out of this, lol...i dont want people to have to wipe their memory
[Droid Incredible General] greno1:
What is the best way to get back some of the system apps like CityID?

I'm going through the restore with the OTA and hit this error (similar to others here)

assert failed: apply_patch_check("/system/app/CityID.apk"...

So it looks like I need to get CityID.apk back into /system/app. I don't think the instructions to get back to stock (like stock recovery) would include these. And it looks like I deleted it before I my Titanium backup.

Does anyone have a link to these APKs? For me, I only need CityID.apk. Also, is it possible to restore these using Nandroid restore?
[Droid Incredible General] H3Dude:
Thanks again for this, nothing like saying the same thing over and over.... 3 days of reading these forums, my eyees are bleeding and I understood this post!

Isn't this the link in the Wiki for the first OTA update.zip file needed: http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Incredible/Guides%26Tutorials

Actual file ile link is https://android.clients.google.com/packages/incrediblec/OTA_IncredibleC_Verizon_WWE_1.22.605.2_1.22.605.0_release_sign.a33bc3bf.zip

I downloaded the file, and used the instructions in the OP and was able to go from .0 to .2
[Droid Incredible General] hls811:
I've got 2.1 1.22.605.0 - Thanks for all of your efforts locating the first OTA guys, I'd love to be able to update to Froyo without having to do a wipe, thats the main reason I haven't done the RUU yet.
[Droid Incredible General] schwartzman93:
Thanks very much...were you able to go from that to Android 2.2 succesfully?
[Droid Incredible General] jmdearras:
got the OTA actually OTA, started it. started with a progress bar and a green circle icon. Part way in it went to a red triangle with a !. Manualy entered stock recovery, and saw I had the same signature fail error others have seen. I am stock 2.1, stock recovery, S-OFF and I am rooted with BusyBox, which is probably why I failed.

If I go the RUU (2.2) route, can I use AppBrain to restore my apps?

Thanks,

Jim

P.S., for anyone concerned, the phone booted back into my current system normally, no issues.
[Droid Incredible General] Aesir Rising:
If I wanted to reset the phone back to as-shipped ("wipe the memory"?), and I didn't want to wait for OTA, but wanted to use the official OTA download, what steps would I take to wipe the phone?

The phone is not rooted or modified, it has baseband 1.22.605.2, and it is stock as-shipped when I got it last week. Aside from adding widgets and shortcuts and what-not, I have no data on the phone that I can't re-sync or otherwise recover.

My objective is to get the official Froyo OTA update, but eliminate any 'cruft' from having it patched from OTA.

[EDIT: I found it. It's a Privacy option in Settings.]
[Droid Incredible General] schwartzman93:
Make sure your baseband(or built) kind of confused at this point, reads as followed...2.1 1.22.605.2
[Droid Incredible General] hls811:
When you said you used the instructions from the original post, you mean this thread - jsut changing it to update.zip, etc - or an OP somewhere else?
[Droid Incredible General] ACD168:
That isn't possible bro, You'd had to pull it from the OTA, like someone just did with this 2.2 update.zip.

this is people's best bet. If I got the actual OTA I would do a reset anyway, your bound to have problems it not. titanium back up is your friend guys.
[Droid Incredible General] schwartzman93:
well wpsantennas gave me a link to that OTA...im just waiting for him to confirm it

...and yea, i know...i was just hoping, lol
[Droid Incredible General] wpsantennas:
Don't know yet - downloading the 2.2 update from the OP over 3G. Will post when I find out if it works - but I have to run in a minute - damn!
[Droid Incredible General] schwartzman93:
Alright, thanks
[Droid Incredible General] ACD168:
?? the OP does work? I used it..
[Droid Incredible General] schwartzman93:
Dude, your kind of confusing me

the thing im trying to solve at this point is getting the update.zip for the first OTA...so those who dont have it wont have to put the RUU on their phone before updating
[Droid Incredible General] hls811:
I agree. :) I tried using wpsantennas link, downloaded, renamed it to update.zip, put it on the root of my SD and I'm still getting an Installation Aborted message. I may have screwed myself though, I did the radio update a few weeks back so my baseband is 2.05.00.06.11 (as well as software version 1.36.605.0) - its possible I have a double whammy..
[Droid Incredible General] H3Dude:
downloaded the second link, renamed update.zip and this changed me to .2. gonna try 2.2 OTA now.
[Droid Incredible General] jllargent:
this does indeed bump it up to .2. i currently have the froyo update.zip running right now and have not had any errors, i also have s-off. it is now rebooting so we will see.
[Droid Incredible General] ACD168:
You're the one being confusing man. saying things like this "the first OTA..." what the hell does this mean? First OTA, do you know how many OTA we have had.. the first I don't know what this means? I don't even know if you are talking about 2.1 or 2.2? do you mean 1.22.605.0, or 1.22.605.2?

I can guarantee most people who don't wipe from 2.1 to 2.2 will end up having problems and will need to do a wipe down the road. But I guess I was confused. sorry. Was trying to help, but I guess I just peace it. Thanks for the OP.
[Droid Incredible General] wpsantennas:
Got the 2.2 update installed without any visible errors but the phone is acting strange on boot (appears to hang at the eye.) I was just about to pull the battery for a second time but when I hit the power button it kind of came to life. The phone is now up (and updated) but I'll have to play around a bit before I say everything is good. That being said - I have to head out :(
[Droid Incredible General] H3Dude:
Still working with no errors. Man.... I am glad I have been carefull in renaming all the PB31IMGs and update.zips I have created over the last three days.
[Droid Incredible General] H3Dude:
everytime I have updated to a new ROM, this eye takes forever before going away, I think it is just loading the new ROM.
[Droid Incredible General] jmdearras:
Baseband stayed 1.00.03.04.06

Software Number is 1.22.605.2
[Droid Incredible General] schwartzman93:
Well thanks for trying, im not trying to upset anyone here...but what i mean is by the first OTA, is the OTA that came out back in may that upgraded the build(or baseband?) from 2.1 1.22.605.0 to 2.1 1.22.605.2

because if people have the 2.1 1.22.605.0...they will have to wipe their system and install the "Android" 2.1 RUU...so im trying to find the update.zip for the "May" OTA...so people dont have to wipe their systems
[Droid Incredible General] schwartzman93:
It will hang for a little bit when it first boots in to 2.2...theres no need to worry
[Droid Incredible General] H3Dude:
good sign, after reboot, first popup states" Congratulations, your phone has been updated sucessfully to version 3.21.605.1!
[Droid Incredible General] schwartzman93:
thankyou for clarifying...i got a bit confused, sorry
[Droid Incredible General] ACD168:
No worries man I'm sorry, I didn't realize what you guys were trying to do. I appreciate all your work dude. hope you guys get it!
[Droid Incredible General] schwartzman93:
Thank You Jesus!!!(just my saying, dont take it offensively, lol)

---Thank you to everyone...now i can get this thread underway(even though Droid-Life posted up their own instructions after i directed them here
[Droid Incredible General] ACD168:
Dude that was def a great pop up to see!!! makes it feel that much more official than the RUU
[Droid Incredible General] H3Dude:
updated:

Baseband version - 2.15.00.07.28

Kernel version - 2.6.32.15-gb7b01d1 htc-kernal@and18-2#1

Build number - 3.21.605.1 CL231334 release-keys

All personal information intact so far. Gonna reboot though. I show excellent connection to wi-fi, but indicator on notification bar has no bars.
[Droid Incredible General] H3Dude:
You're telling Me!!
[Droid Incredible General] H3Dude:
ok, no reboot required, just disconnected from Wi-Fi and reconnected. All good!
[Droid Incredible General] schwartzman93:
Okay guys...im about to update the info...so that link for the "May" OTA is works...right?

and you were able to get it to Android 2.2 no problem?
[Droid Incredible General] ACD168:
does anyone know if the release keys are the same on the OTA and the RUU?
[Droid Incredible General] hls811:
Can I downgrade the baseband..?
[Droid Incredible General] boomertwo:
I'm confirming that the release keys on my phone are the exact same. I updated by extracting the RUU's rom.zip file.(never got the RUU program to work on my machines)

3.21.605.1 CL231334 release-keys < is what I have in about phone>software information
[Droid Incredible General] wpsantennas:
I'm thinking that you are right. Whenever it would get stuck at the eye I'd just wait a bit and hit the power button twice to turn the screen off and on and then I'd be fine. After maybe 4 or 5 power cycles it is now working normally. Not having any issues with anything at this time.
[Droid Incredible General] H3Dude:
Everything working flawlessly for me so far.

Flash is Great! Better than installed on 3rd part ROM

Liked to see new keyboard.

Internet operative and fast.

Market works.

camera and camcoder good - with 720p.

I think this is as good as it gets for Stock!

Wish me luck, I am going in for ClockworkMod now!!
[Droid Incredible General] schwartzman93:
Pleas answer me guys, lol

...im about to update the info...so that link for the "May" OTA is works...right?

and you were able to get it to Android 2.2 no problem?
[Droid Incredible General] wpsantennas:
Yeah, I'm golden. Used the May OTA update from the wiki link and the 2.2 OTA link from the OP and am good to go with no apparent problems.

And thx!
[Droid Incredible General] schwartzman93:
No problem...and thanks to you to
[Droid Incredible General] H3Dude:
If you are referring to the May update as this link:

Actual file ile link is https://android.clients.google.com/p...n.a33bc3bf.zip

Then yes, this is what I used to move my Software Number from .0 to .2, after renaming it update.zip and putting on root of SD card, rebooting ect... Then I did the same for the Stock Official OTA post from Post#2.
[Droid Incredible General] H3Dude:
schwartzman93 - Nice job keeping ownership of this string and following it through.
[Droid Incredible General] schwartzman93:
No problem...may the schwartz be with you :)
[Droid Incredible General] hls811:
Attempting to go backwards, put my radio back to 1.x - I have a feeling at this point running the RUU and a clean install might be easier then the hoops I'm jumping through..

Just curious - if the OTA file posted in the OP is doing a validation check and needs everything aligned properly (software/baseband versions) - would the same happen if I waited for the OTA to be sent by Verizon?? Would that cr*p out on me?
[Droid Incredible General] stopthebus:
Is gmail the only difference between the OTA and RUU?

I did the RUU a few days ago.

I don't use gmail (use HTC mail) and don't want to go through the process again if nothing else is new.

Thanks
[Droid Incredible General] Soufboy:
Does anybody know if the "Unrevoked 3" flashing method for rooting your phone works after you update to this official 2.2 OTA file? I plan on wiping my phone back to unrooted stock (I'm currently rooted using the Unrevoked 3 method) and upgrading to this 2.2 release this week, but I wanna hold off on doing it if I can't regain root access after I upgrade. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you guys for all the files and instructions you have posted so far.
[Droid Incredible General] jdmba:
Radio?

For those of us with Radio v1.x.x.x.x, will Update.zip also update the radio?
[Droid Incredible General] H3Dude:
there was a post earlier that stated someone received the same installation error even though the OTA was downloaded OTA. He is going to revert his radio, i believe, and try again.
[Droid Incredible General] H3Dude:
my radio updated from this OTA from the stock 1.XX radio
[Droid Incredible General] King Speedy:
Just wanted to update that everything went great.

An hour ago I was at stock everything (1.22.605.2), and now I'm fully updated and rooted. Thanks to everyone for their help!
[Droid Incredible General] H3Dude:
Are you leaving S-off?
[Droid Incredible General] H3Dude:
I did not have the RUU installed, but used SkyRaider 3.0 RC3, that was supposedly based off the RUU and the keyboard is a little different. Not sure if that was the RUU or a SkyRaider mod.
[Droid Incredible General] H3Dude:
Also, I love the new charcteristics of the optical mouse. A swipe will move more than one cursor now. Not sure about the RUU.
[Droid Incredible General] stopthebus:
If you take the s-off route, then yes, re-rooting after 2.2 is just a matter of applying a couple of files. You must be s-off BEFORE upgrading to 2.2

Good Luck
[Droid Incredible General] H3Dude:
Congrats! You are Speedy!
[Droid Incredible General] schwartzman93:
Well, ive managed to update all of the info...but of course i get no credit from third party sites.

While i do greatly commend teslatech from Android Central for getting the .zip off of his phone, i think i do at least deserve credit for this

But thanks to all on here for your help and gratitude.
[Droid Incredible General] brownsfan:
Can you let me know how you revert your radio... I also have an updated one. My baseband is 2.05.00.06.11 and it will not install the update.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DR.mobbfigga:
So my good friend bought a used evo, the bad thing is that the phone has lost/stolen status, its been verified by a sprint store manager that in fact it is not lost or stolen, its a long story, anybody who works for sprint in the forums can you help. how does he go about removin the status from the phone, so he can activate?:confused:
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abrigham:
I don't work for Sprint but had to go through this with a Mogul I purchased a few years back... basically what I was told is that the only way to get the flag removed is to have the person that originally reported it lost/stolen call into Customer Care to report it un-lost (or would that be found? :P )
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pb4life754:
if u call tech support they can do a chat to try to get it removed it takes about 5-10 min but it doesnt work 100% of the time when i worked in sprint tech i did it some times
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omegasun18:
yea this is probably a case where the person used there insurance and reported it lost then sold the old phone. happens a lot. try tech support i have gotten them to fix one of my old phones but i have heard many stories of them not being able to as well. Hope it works out/ if nto hopefully he paid paypal or credit card and can report it to try tog et his money back (assuming it doesnt say it was a bad esn when he bought it)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donatom3:
Your good friend needs to talk to the person he bought it from and have them handle it for him. Is there a chance this actually is a lost or stolen phone?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sjjones:
I actually hope there is no way to get the Lost/stolen flag removed, it would only give thieves the opportunity to start stealing phones again and using them, or people committing fraud against the insurance firms, which down the line cost us more $$$$

Sorry but your friend should of been more careful?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jye75:
Really? So if you lost your phone, reported it as lost to Sprint, DIDN'T file an insurance replacement claim, and found it the next week, you wouldn't want to be able to get the lost/stolen flag taken off? I call BS!

Besides, I have had many lost/stolen flags taken off of many different phones due to some of the numbskulls working at my company, no problems. Haven't had to do it for an EVO yet though.

There are always legitimate reasons for wanting that taken off, as opposed to just wasting a perfectly good piece of hardware. Thieves will always steal, regardless of whether or not what they steal can be reactivated or not. Your logic is flawed.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sohr:
I'm fairly sure the original owner can remove the Lost/Stolen flag, so it is your logic that is invalid.

The only reason someone would want to remove a Lost/Stolen flag from a phone that was not originally theirs is someone who was the recipient of a stolen phone, or one released through insurance fraud.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jye75:
No, my logic is sound, and a correct reply to the comment above as it is worded. More specifically regarding the thieves stealing phones portion. And I might add that your "only reason" doesn't cover all bases either. Not everyone who loses a phone, files an insurance claim. In fact, many people do not carry insurance on their phones. In that event, the original owner could find their lost/stolen phone, and turn around and sell or give it to someone else while forgetting to clear the device through the service provider.

I love it when the "know-it-alls" come out and only "know" what they have experienced or can imagine in their own minds. Limited.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themandan:
Sprint accidentally reported my Evo lost/stolen when I was on the phone with them once. Then they lost the ESN from their system. Then they told me that HTC had to reload the ESN into their system before Sprint could do anything.

Took about 5 days to get my phone back but they did finally do it.

I understand the issue here but that is why I never buy a phone from someone unless I meet them at the store to verify that it is legit and clear to activate.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sohr:
If the original owner "forgets" to clear the device, whose fault is that? It's not Sprints-- and it's something that is easily remedied-- have the original owner call Sprint and have it removed.

Every legitimate reason for removing a stolen/lost flag is covered that way.

Pot meet kettle, much?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Natty_lite:
Same thing I was thinking. You could file a claim, pay the deductible, get a new phone and just be like" nevermind, I found it. Can you remove the lost/stolen tag please?" Now you have a spare phone you could sell to recoup the cost of the deductible, and then some.

I'm going to be more blunt than others and just call this exactly what it looks like. Fraud.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jye75:
My point's made, end of interaction with you.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DR.mobbfigga:
SO the guy he bought it from told him to stop calling him or he will press harrassment charges against him. there's gotta be away to get this solved through customer service may be an upper level management can help. the seller says he called sprint and they reported that phone is not on the lost or stolen. please guys solutions not bickering between each other this is ridiculus

the seller has canceled his account recently i dont know what the means as far the phone goes. sprint c.s. said they don't understand why it has this status on it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jye75:
Hmmm, if the seller cancelled recently, and sold his EVO, then it might be that he owes Sprint, and they will not release the ESN until it's paid up. Think about it, a lot of people jumped at the Evo with a 2 year contract, discounted price. Maybe the seller could not afford the service and decided not to pay. I've heard of a couple of situations like this.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DR.mobbfigga:
if thats the case what options are there? what can sprint do for my friend to get this phone activated. this sucks for my friend. maybe the seller is afraid he'll have to pay if he calls sprint. idk. weird situation?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jye75:
That's what would need to happen, he'd have to pay his debt first. How much did your friend buy it for?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fenixjn:
This is bad... really bad. Did he disclose that the phone had a bad ESN when your friend bought it? And it means that the seller is basically telling you that your friend is on his/her own since the seller already has the money.

Either way Sprint will not activate the phone unless they get whatever is due to them. It would be a lot easier for your friend to get his/her money back and return the phone and shop for a new one with a clean ESN. I don't think you can have Sprint do anything at all at this point. Go resolve the issue with the seller or try to have your friend get money back... at this point I hope your friend can still get the money.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donatom3:
This happened to me before for a phone I sold. But in my case it wasn't in lost/stolen status, but showing as active on an account. As the seller I did everything possible on a Saturday to resolve the issue for the buyer right away. I was on the phone with Sprint, even gave the buyer my personal number (this was an ebay transaction) told him to have Sprint conference me in. After a few calls this was resolved.

From the way your friend's seller is acting I would be more inclined to believe this is a stolen phone. The guy should refund your friend right away and just take the phone back. If I was your friend in this situation, I would be finding out with sprint right now if I should be going to the police to report this guy.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DR.mobbfigga:
Going to the police is what he's,gonna do tomorrow. Hopefully this can be resolved.
