ROM Question - Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Are there any ROMS based off of the "Official" 2.1 Sprint release?
Or are they all based off of the leaked release?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=683746 says official ruu in header.

However, if you look at the post date, it says the thread was started on the 18th. The Official 2.1 was not released until the 19th.
A lot of people had assumed that the last leak was the final release because of the version number. However, there is about 17 megs difference between the official release and the leaked release.

i believe they took the bloatware out and the leak was the official according to Toast, he's a pretty bright guy. There were 2 leaks the newest on the 17th or 18th is the one i am referring to.
Edit* another thought is he could have easily updated his rom with the official ruu and not have changed the date.

the checksums are the same, "leak" and "official" are the same

[Q] Any newer Froyo version on the horizon (Scandinavia)?

Have installed the latest fw from Kies (Scandinavia). But, is there any newer version unofficially released which we soon can hope will hit official status?

Geeze... How 'bout being happy with the FROYO that you HAVE and let the rest of us in the world get ours before wondering if there is ANOTHER update for Scandinavia...
Hehe, well I still think this Froyo version sucks (laggy), and hope it will be fixed.
After all, got my money back now, so I am looking for a new phone. Nexus S seems to be the one, but if the rumour is true and it will only shi with 384 mb ram am still at a loss...

I8700XXKA1 Firmware

The I8700XXKA1 ROM has been spotted in the wild. Look here. KA1 means it is from January 2011. It includes the NoDo updated Windows Phone version 7.0.7355.0. It is confirmed that ChevronWP7 is not working anymore. I hope we can get a firmware-dump here as soon as possible. If we have a firmware-dump, we'll be able to switch between 7.0.7004 and 7.0.7355 by reflashing the ROM. This can be usefull when trying to find a new sideload-jailbrake. Anybody with a JTAG and a new Omnia7, please dump here!
Any news yet?

SamFirmware says it will be online "later". See Tweet 1 and Tweet 2. But it is't here yet.
I'm more interested to know if there are any performance differences like the last firmware update.
If nothings changed much then its not worth me potentially bricking my phone over.
The last firmware update (February, 2011) was a preparatory update for actual update coming later this year. It did not change anything, really.

I'm talking about firmware, not the pre nodo update.
The last new firmware improved the GPS, HSDPA, Wifi etc so it connected a lot faster.

You guys are talking about two different things. The KA1 update contains Windows Phone build 7.0.7355 which contains the NoDo update. The February update that zyborg is talking about is Windows Phone build 7.0.7008 which is only a very small update and it preceeds the NoDo update. EDDS asks if the KA1 contains improvements like the JK1 update did. JK1 contained updates for the Samsung bios. The KA1 may contain updates for the Samsung firmware too, but I'm not sure about that. It does contain a new version of Windows Phone, which is known to have performance improvement due to better memory management. So it does have performance improvements, except they are not in the bios, but in Windows Phone OS.
Edit: Too late ;-)
Just a little heads up here: I got some version numbers.
First the version numbers for the 'old' I8700XXJK1:
OS: 7.0.7004.0
Firmware: 2424.10.11.1
Hardware: 3.15.0.4
Radio software: 2424.10.11.1
Radio Hardware: 0.0.0.800
Bootloader: 4.11.0.3
Chip SOC: 0.36.2.0
And now the versions for the new I8700XXKA1:
OS: 7.0.7355.0
Firmware: 2424.11.1.1
Hardware: 3.15.0.4
Radio software: 2424.11.1.1
Radio hardware: 0.0.0.800
Bootloader: 4.11.0.5
Chip-SOC: 0.36.2.0
So the new phones have NoDo, still the same hardware revisions, and minor software updates in the Samsung BIOS.

NoDo seems to be 7.0.7389.0. So this ROM does'nt have the final NoDo release.

Yeah, I saw that too. It's remarkable, because people who have this firmware on their phone report that they have Copy/Paste and that ChevronWP7 is not working. So it definitely has NoDo, but somehow not the final version of the update.
My device arrived today,
OS; 7.0.7355.0.
It has copy and paste.
So far have been unable to sicronize with zune, zune complains about not being able to acess some files.

Try updating Zune. Maybe you don't have the latest version.
I guess you wouldn't be able to make a ROM dump, are you? (I don't know how to do it. I guess it can only be done with JTAG, or something).
I will look into it, but I'm a nob on wp7 at the moment.
Zune problem fixed, the old style hard reset.

Nope there is no NoDo update for Omnia yet. Samfirmware they said their working on getting it. But it was a long time ago. At this stage you might as well just wait for the march update. First half of the month is over so according to MS we should get the notification for update soon

according to M$ we should already have had this update for at least 3 days.
Correct me if early march does not mean first half of the month (latest!!!)

It said 2nd half of the month. Will you relax Im sure it will be here soon Better a bit late than having tons of bricked phones.
Dont forget MS issues an update to OEM's, OEM's issue it to carrier. They all check whats good and whats not and and then MS has to address what MS and Carriers think is ok and not. Its quality assurance. Every large company has to do this. MS being a giant doesnt make this easier. The update probably has to be signed of by tons of people.
And Brandon Watson said that their working on making sure that WP7 updates are issued out faster in the future.
Looking at the leaked roms for HTC phones that include nodo update, these have been ready for a while and are fully functioning. Im sure its carriers being slow to test the software and be ready to send it out. As they said they will issue the updates to everyone at the same time. So slow carriers and OEM's can slow down the process too in order to avoid poeple crying that some one gets update faster than the other.
So rather than it being Microsofts fault its OEM's and Carriers fault for slow reaction. I would be far happier if MS did what google does and release their own developers phone that would get the updates first and screw the carriers.
relax??!! ;-)
I am the kind of guy got on a plane to london to get the 8gb omnia 7 the minute it was releasead in Payg on three ;-) not to wait to have it officialy released in Poland or germany... ;-)))
but I do understand your point and fully agree on that.
I'd also prefer MS to release the updates via their own channels rather than through carriers.
I am just little mad because in the beginning it was officiall that nodo will be released on Feb 14th, than march 8th, then first half of march and now it is second...
we should get used to not paying much care to what ms officials say...

I don't think anyone knows the exact date. Mo, the VP of HTC USA, stated that all carriers will get the update before November 7th (it's their target, not the exact date). Hopefully, we'll get it earlier than that!

Anytime.
btw, this is 4.4.4 not L
And Lollipop should be coming to our devices around 90 days after the full release of Android L.

Where's our new MM update? Anybody has any idea?

What's wrong with Sprint, why didn't they release the new update? The unlocked device was updated almost a month ago, which means the software was sent to Sprint! How can we figure out when will Stupid Sprint release that?
The carrier devices are always 2-3 months (if I remember correctly) after the unlocked devices.
That much?
As per the tweet by Mo Versi (VP of HTC) we should be receiving on Jan 4th. Most of the time, things got delivered on the date he announced. Hoping for Jan 4.
That's a negative

It is likely going to be within. 7 days from now.
There's no where to find this out, which is annoying. Thanks for the updates.
It's solely on the carrier right now though, so who knows absolutely for certain.
I had it
I had a system update appear in my menu bar this mornjng. Without reading the message completely I installed it. It did so pretty quickly. And then nothing installed. I know it said "marshmallow" and 6.0. I don't know what happened.

That was an Application update in preparation for the MM 6.0 update.

Thanks. I remember those with past updates.
Do you have the update number?
Well I don't like sprint rom with horrible black dial pad and bloatware. Who would want sprint mm? Why not custom rom dev edition based?
yeah, that was an update to prepare for MM upgrade. But I can't see what's the numbers of the update, where can I find it anywhere? The real ROM didn't come yet.

Just saw it, and was about to post,
Unfortunately the RUU downloaded from HTC website won't work with my factory locked original phone, what the f.
After reading the webpage carefully, using the RUU from there to program will erase all the data on the phone, so I don't know if that's what I want. I'm just becoming too lazy to deal with all of these

Sammobile lists two firmwares for N910T

2016-10-24, N910TUVS2EPG2
Any idea what is the difference between the two and which one is the latest for N910T?
Thanks

Can't believe they released an update in a day. Is one these a T3 version?

Both are for the original N910T version. These updates were not released one day after another. The listing date that appears in samfirmware I suppose is the date the file was uploaded to their servers. If you click them, you will see the true build date for each update. EPG2 was built and released July 2016 and EPJ2 was build and released October 2016.
