I just rooted my Nexus One AT&T and its FRF85B. Is there a way for me to update it to FRF91? I tried once but it gave me an error..
A solution would be appreciated. Thanks
Please spend 5 minutes searching and reading. This has been discussed plenty off times before. It prevents you from looking lazy and keeps the forum clean.
Hmm the thing why I posted this is because, I have searched the whole nexus one forum for it, but I'm somewhat out of luck.. Well, if you do have the answer, mind telling me about it?
Am I able to upgrade it to FRF91 or not.

Hey all,
So rather... inconveniently my Dream has died and the replacement that was sent to me is already flashed with the new retard-o firmware.
I have been reading and re-reading everything on the forums and think I understand what I need to do to get root access again, but I want to ensure I am going down the right path.
If I understand correctly I need to create a gold card. Is this right? Is there another way I should go about this? Can someone break down what i need to do now (or point me in the right direction)?
Much appreciated, and yes I do realize all this info is already out there, but these threads are full of pages and pages of people complaining about rogers. While I can understand, finding this exact information is now near impossible because of the flood of off topic posts. I don't my phone to die... again.
Thanks in advance.
you are asking in the wrong section
questions go in the QnA section - and even then, this question has been asked and answered numerous times

First I already made it clear that I was having trouble picking out the information and am looking just for some simple confirmations. I apologize for it being in the wrong spot, but really did you need to spam the thread with two posts just to be a jerk?
If you are going to gripe about my post then perhaps you should follow the rules and not uselessly double post for emphasies. Do as I say not as I do?
And to be clear, yes Ive read the 82 page long how to post, its so convoluted and filled with whining that I am just looking for some clarification. Its called looking for help, I was under the impression that is what this forum was for.
Hey, this is the guide I used to root mine: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=4280573#post4280573
Don't know if it will work with the retard-o-rom though. I didn't upgrade. Just told them it was done, they asked for the build number and I told the technician "Ohh my phone restarted itself sorry....Just need a moment....What number should I be looking for?" He then told me the number...I waited a few seconds and then said..."yup, that's the one" lol. He said okay and did the network refresh and i have my data back.
Thank you for your response TheDong, unfortunately the latest ROM does not allow for fast booting or flasrec. I am under the impression that I will need to downgrade my phone first, but this is where I am a bit sketchy on the process and if is in fact the right step. Or the path to having another broken phone.
So just to be clear; I have a new rogers HTC Dream with the most recent Rogers ROM. My data is active as I have the latest ROM (forced upon me because its a replacement phone.) I have previously rooted a phone, but that phone was replaced by rogers due to a hardware defect.
This is something that is going to start coming up a lot, I imagine. Rogers does not ship the phone without the latest firmware. I have yet to find something that is clear on the post-force upgrade solution.

Hi Soundwav,
Double-posting occasionally happens when the forum is slow to respond and a member clicks Submit Reply a second time assuming that the first submit did not register the first time around.

Yeah, think you're right. But try to understand that there are lots of new users asking questions that have been asked lots of times... Allthough, i think your question ist legitimate.
And: garok89's is no accidental doubleposting.
But anyways, keep cool. Hope, you will find adequate help, dude.
Before this gets started let me say I'm not a developer in no way I just feel I know quite a bit about most of the 2.1 roms floating around so if you have probs. Post here and somebody is bound to help you ill try my best with the little amount of knowledge I have

OK, I'm game. Normally, I've been on here a couple of months and am pretty good about just finding my answers via search, but no luck on this one. Maybe I am just lost in the huge number of posts in the DamageControl thread.
I've been on DamageControl since last Friday. I read about ESPN coming to Sprint TV, so I decided to reinstall Sprint TV and see how it looked.
I grabbed the apk from Flipz prekitchen and used the package installer on my phone to reinstall. Sprint TV worked fine. Then I opened it again up later to show my wife, and I got an error message "You must be a Sprint customer to use this application." Eventually, I tried uninstalling Sprint TV and reinstalling it. It worked on the first try again, but again, later tries gave me the "You must be a Sprint customer..."
Ideas?
damage isnt actually a sprint rom its a verizion rom so more then likely thats the problem and really wont be fixed till we have a sprint 2.1 release it might work on the legend roms though thats worth a try

its all about ease of ascess man one thread with mad problems is much better then spreading the problems out amongst multiple rom/custimaztion/literally every thread you can think of
I'm sorry if this sounds like an extremely nooby question, but how do I root my phone?
I'm looking at getting CyanogenModon my HTC Hero from sprint, but when I run 'Universal Androot' i'm getting a failed notice. I'm on software number 2.31.651.7 which I have read is making androot fail.
Is there anyway to downgrade, or is there another rooter that works with that version?
Thank you so much for your help in advance, you're keeping me from ripping my hair out!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QPB2itfpPqE&feature=PlayList&p=7A45BA86A3FD9137&index=0&playnext=1 Im not a noob so I know enough to let you know most people will give you a hard time for opening a thread like this. Only because there are so many others already done on this subject. Poke around this website and there is pretty much not one question that has not been asked and answered already. Anywho, watch this video and do some reading on this website before you do anything to your phone. Can not stress that enough. Good luck.
ok, i know frequent users may have seen this heaps of times, but i have taken a few days searching thru the posts and threads but found no clear answer.
i bought my galaxy s a few weeks ago and i have been reading into it since.
i want to root my phone and get the 2.2 update, however rooting doesnt seem very straight forward. there seeems to be many ways to root your phone out there and many lag fixes. the more i search the more i find. all i want to know is what is the best way to root the phone and best lag fix.
does rooting allow you to get paid apps for free? is it like cydia on the iphone? if not how can i do so.
and if you dont mind explain to me what flashing, and all the roms mean..
i thought that the galaxy would be alot more straight forward than jailbreaking. jailbreaking for me was pretty straight forward, rooting however.. i just dont know where to start.
your help would be much appreciated..
thanks in advanced,
derrick
I posted this in the General forum & it was promptly closed & I was asked to search in this forum for an answer. Well, that didn't go so well as all I came up with was numerous posts of how to root my phone, which is exactly what I don't want to do. So, hopefully this will not be closed out as well.
I must admit that I tired of chasing AT&T & Samsung as to when the Gingerbread update would be available awhile back.
Then I saw an ad on TV that I'm pretty sure was for AT&T but another Android-based phone & they were hyping that the phone was equipped w/Android OS 4.0 so that it now rivaled the 'iCrap' phone.
Would someone please set me straight on which legit OS's have or are soon to be released () for the Cappy, or any new Samsung phone at that!
Thanks!
As far as Gingerbread for the Captivate well, Rogers released it for their i896 not to long ago, and so all we can do is hope for at&t to release it for us soon.
That's really all we know as far as the Captivate is concerned. This has been discussed over and over and that is why your previous thread was closed by the Forum Moderator.
As far as ICS...
Here ya go... http://www.xda-developers.com/andro...ream-sandwich-for-galaxy-s-and-tab-after-all/
As far as other Samsung phones, it would probably be better to find info on that through Google as opposed to here in the Captivate Forums.
I just googled it and found an entire page of articles in the past month or so with exactly what you're looking for. So so so much easier than making a post.

Thanks much for the link, which was quite heavily redacted )). Your point is well taken about just doing a Google search than posting here. Besides, I don't need someone telling me to go searching through the forum posts as my question has been asked many times before. I used to have a friend connected w/XDA that I could PM for scoops & ask questions like I posted here & he was always happy to help. Unfortunately, he's gone missing!
