What should I do?

I just got my notice for official update to 2.2. Do I need to unroot,recripple and undo my lagfix first? Please really need your expert help. Also will I be able to reroot and all the other things again if I have to undo them? Thanks for any an all advice an help you can offer.

Try searching before posting. This is nothing new, just AT$T trying to reach customers who don't hang out in forums like this. This is the same update that was released on 2/24. If you are currently on a custome ROM, you would have to flash back to stock using Odin. beware, if you update to OEM Froyo you will not be able to root or install CWM with the new 3e recovery. I'd suggest you do some reading up on the issues and benefits of stock Froyo before you make up your mind to upgrade.

Thank you for your help, But if I'm not going to be able to root it back then I wont update. Unfortunately I'm not very experienced and I'm afraid of bricking my phone so flashing roms kinda scares me. I'd love to be brave and do all that kind of things. Oh sorry I tried to search but my app kept force closing.

There is a way to root the stock Froyo, but the old methods either don't work or need to be adjusted. I'd wait until I was at a PC so I could do some searches and read up on the issues. Froyo is definitely better than Eclair and a worthwhile upgrade, but still somewhat lacking compared to what the devs here are cooking up.

You're right, so long as you know that beforehand.

Yes XDA is where I got the wonderful apps to do what changes I have to my Cappy. Super One Click is how I rooted . Thank you all for the fantastic help and great advice. Will I be able to decripple it again?

Flashing a modem won't brick your cappy. Also, every modem works differently on every phone and perfomance depends alot of your location.
Feel free to try them out - Just make sure you know what you're doing

So all that is is a modem

no, he doesn't understand, please ignore him.
the JVB rar should have a PDA, MODEM, and CSC tar.md5 files inside which are to be used with ODIN. you *should* be able to flash it and be fine, but I wouldn't recommend it as there's always a potential for bricking with ODIN. add to that, you should flash the new bootloaders to avoid graphical glitches, they'll affect your button recovery for download mode (which could lead to more potential danger).
basically, anytime you use ODIN will *never* be safe, but you *should* be able to do it.

Wow,a different bootloader? What should I use? Also which files do I flash to get the whole thing? The whole zip or just the zimage? Sorry for the 4 questions at once but I guess there's more to it than I thought lol

Need help figuring out which ROM I have

Ok, so I know just enough to get myself into trouble. I've looked at multiple ROMs on this site and installed a couple different ones. I can't keep of track which one I installed most recently. Can someone please help me figure it out, if possible, from the attached screen shot?
I'd like to know which ROM it is and if there is a newer version of the same ROM that I could flash?
Please help!
Thanks!

You're running what is now Team Nyx ICS. Backup and wipe data before flashing. There is a new version out.

So, you're talking about the one located here:

Right?
It would seem that there has only been one update since the ROM installed. Not sure I can tell if there are any useful updates in the newer ROM.
There are so many ROMs out there. How is anyone supposed to figure out which one is the best one?
Thanks for the reply!

Questions never belong in Development. Ever.

Sorry, thought since it was a question about a ROM and not stock stuff, it was more like a development question. Sorry about the wrong placement, but please know that I did consider my placement, just got it wrong..

Rooting help

Hi there.
I am keen to root my phone but am a newbie to the whole experience.
Could anyone direct me to the exact instructions required to root my N7000 (see detail attached)

You got already answers in your first thread four days ago related to the same question.
Why don't you follow the hints and given links to tutorial there?
And in April the same before.
And then one year ago in April 2012 again. And of course you made two threads even then.
Having fun with this method?

It's not a big brother, I'm right now trying to get slim again.
I got used to look into older postings of a member when he asks a question. Sometimes you'll get the necessary details from his older posts.
Example: why searching for a mistake in a Rom when someone whines about freezes when a post before he wrote that he OC'ed his Kernel to 1600?
But in this case I acted like a BB after seeing the repeated orgy: it was even fun to answer him with his own history.
By the way: he got the Dr. Ketan link already in 2012...

Clearly I'm asking these questions again because I didn't have any success rooting the 1st time round.
As for orgies?!? Maybe opening the door and breathing some air would help remind you there's a big world outside with lots going on.
I was looking for some help delivered to me in a beginner's language I understand, not grandiose frustration that I had the idiocy to ask the same questions

Since April 2012 members gave you the links to the tutorials all members used here. Most of them were beginners.
And if you didn't understand it after one year of trying you should consider not trying to root your device at all.
You might end in a bricked one.

For the record, I haven't been trying for a year, I tried twice.......(once managed to root but had problems afterwards, once, stopped trying as it became frustrating)
Maybe you should stop acting out your insecurities about yourself in a faceless blog and find peace with who you are

Look, in order to beeing able to help you it would be nice to tell us what rom you have got on your Note.
Starting with ICS (4.0.4) rooting is very simple. Just take a look in the settings what rom you have got and then head over to the PhilZ kernel thread in Original development. There you will find rooted kernels for all stock (Original) ICS or above roms. Dowmload the one matching your rom (choose the .zip version, not .tar). Then boot into stock recovery (press volume up, home and power buttons simultaneously) and flash the kernel. Bang, you got root. Not really difficult. What the hell have you been doing? I guess until today you have not really bothered reading the tutorials and threads. Because everything is explained there and all of us had start too by reading a lot. Good luck.

You can get your hands on some of the custom ROMs, and flash them. But be sure to carefully read the thread of the ROM like what recovery is safe to flash it,etc. Also remember to wipe data, factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache before you flash a ROM. Enjoy!

Do not flash roms from international forum

Sorry, but there seems to be a new post every other day about people borking their Sprint phones because they flash a Rom from the "HTC One" forum.
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY:
-------------------------------------
ROMS from the international forums WILL mess up your phone and you will be lucky to fix it after that! I get you want the shiny new 4.2.2 but those ROMS will not --I repeat-- WILL NOT WORK ON THE SPRINT HTC ONE.
Sure, they used to, but once they moved onto 4.2.2 they will not flash.
I feel this should be sticky in every thread on the Sprint HTC One forum.

Would this be helpful to anyone? It's kind of on/off topic... A direct link to HTC's copy of the HTC One update for Europe?
And by a direct link, I mean an HTC URL?

I mean, the proof is in the pudding...by which I mean the constant stream of "bricked plz help" threads.

So all of these stupid people that aren't reading prior to flashing and you think they are going to magically read this? I really hope this prevents a few but I doubt it.

From what I've seen all the major ROM's say in some fashion or another that it won't work for Sprint so it's mostly people just not reading. Maybe they could make the font about it possibly destroying phones if you are on Sprint bigger...and flashing...surrounded by naked women. Then maybe people will see it.

Unless your a Dev or know what your doing I wouldn't flash non sprint things... I know the partition labels and boot.IMG stuff so I have gotten things to work but not for a noobie

I have never seen so many people flashing the wrong roms as I have seen with the HTC One...If people would read then they wouldn't have these issues but we all know they won't read this either. You bought a Sprint HTC ONE, why would you not come to the SPRINT HTC ONE Development section to find a rom???

No no no... You don't want to do that! First. Go to Apple.com, that part is right, but you have to download their Symbian Factory ROM. Then put your phone into DFU mode open ChevronWP7, and while holding shift select the .ipsw file you just downloaded and you'll be up and running with the latest version of WebOS in no time!!
