If you want to upgrade to stock 2.2.1, you can flash them using rsdlite. List of stock 2.2.1 rom's is available below.

You can also use Motorola software update to upgrade.
For custom roms, you will need to flash VR first and then use AOR to flash the rom.

If you are referring to ROM Manager by Koush, don't use it. It is for the droid, not the milestone.

Check post 3. I already gave you the link to the thread that has answers to all your needs.
everything worked , i got stuck with the caution sign , please help
The caution sign appears but it doesn go further please help

You have to press Volume Up and then the camera button
... or the other way around
Then you'll get a menu, use the volume buttons to select "Apply update.zip"
But this will only work if you've already copied the AOR update.zip to your SD card.
Which is available here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=796679
And here's a tutorial i used on my Milestone: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=698059
i followed the steps but it aient working
what is meant by " Now we need to put the open recovery on your SD card, so extract all the content from Androidiani OpenRecovery 3.3 on your SD card. The archive contains an update.zip + an OpenRecovery folder, they both need to be at the root of your SD card " how do i put those files in the root , please help

They have to be on your SD Card, but not in an folder. So when you plug the card into the computer, you copy AOR to "Removable Disk" (the one that is your SD card) and that's it.

I just rooted my froyo Droid with easy root. I downloaded a rom from my pc to sd card. Used rom manager to install. Fails everytime. Help?
I don't know anything about this 'easy root' I keep hearing about. But if you have the superuser icon and have flashed either SPRecovery or ClockWorkRecovery you might have gotten a bad link. Whichever ROM you wanna put on there download another one from another source and give it another shot. Or rename the ROM to update.zip leave it on the root of your sdcard and 'allow update.zip installation' then install update.zip

Using Root Explorer I am unable to find the proper folder for this hack.
I can find it no problem on Phiremod 5.1 installed to internal.
What ROM are you running, and is it internal or external?
Where do you struggle (can you see any of the folders)?

As my sig says I am running 0.6.8 NookieFroyo on SD. I don't want to write to the eMMC so I can boot stock or a custom ROM.
I can see the folders but there is no init.d folder in the etc folder. Do you think I can just add it?
Sorry man, I don't see your sig via Tapatalk...
Just adding an init.d folder won't help, unless your system has something looking for it. I'm not sure how the SD roms are built, so you may want to try and contact the dev...

If you just want the boost and don't mind paying then you can always search for "sd card booster" on market

Search for the error you see. That's usually a good idea.

Go to mobiletechvideos.com there is a three part video on how to install a rom, what you are doing is completely wrong ... Before you do the steps in the video you're gonna have to do the fix I posted earlier.
Sorry for being a little rude earlier. I just assumed that was your issue cause that's all I've seen this week for some reason.
No problem
I'll look that up. Thanks

It's all in the videos, just make sure you mod the 3e recovery first or you will get a signing error and the install will fail.
Ok does it say how to mod 3e rec. I'm not sure how to do that

I really don't think it matters if it goes to internal or external. could be your signal was a little wonky and you got a bad download. always a good idea to check the md5 against the source before you install it. easy enough to do through root explorer.
In relation to this thread i just want to ask how can i update into JB coming from Overcome rom, what is the best custom ROM so far for the P1000
Any success, djerk?
My Tab2 7.0 is a GT-P3113 also, (rooted) and I would like to install Jelly Bean. Hoping to find someone who installed a stable JB version on same. Were you attempting JB? Did you find a way?
