As long as you're on gingerbread you are good to go. Boot into cwm then wipe data in there. As long as you follow all directions in gv then you will be fine!
GINGERVOLTED!

im looking for frg22 unrooted at the moment so i can see about returning my Droid since the charger barely stays in the port these days. but if you are looking for stock unrooted frg22 then i will post a link if you havent found it yet
Go to droidmod.org and download DMupdater 12. Its like the 3rd post down on the main page. Once you have it installed go to the rom menu and they give you a couple of options for 2.2

is there a version of this that we can apply without loosing root?
just want a stock version w/ root
I am at android version 2.2 build FRG22D rooted
and just want to get the FRG83D update
similar to what Pete does
http://www.peteralfonso.com/p/downloads.html
after looking at the update list I would only be interested in the new twitter app, new gmail app, and news/weather widget. It seems it might just be easier to find these apk's individually and install on FRG22D rather than deal with the upgrade.
Unless there's something else worthwhile in the upgrade that I'm missing...
I didn't notice anything different after upgrading.

Good old RSD Lite lol.
RSDLite still works.
I know that for the X, z4 still works too. I'd imagine it does the D1 too.
Nope, z4root doesn't work anymore on D1

Did you use the small FRG83D-from-FRG22D file (under the OTA section) or the full FRG83 DeOdexed?
Or is that smaller file just what Verizon sent out?
I successfully rooted my Droid1 using SuperOneClick tonight.Downloaded it from XDA tonight.It reverts back to frg83.I am a complete dummy but the instructions were simple.
Sent from my Droid using XDA App
ok, not knowing what was added in Peter's build, I used a rooted stock build posted by metiCkOne (link below) that included busybox and superuser.
I didn't even wipe data, updated on my rooted FRG22D with SPRecovery.
After that I just re-installed my preferred kernel update to get a higher overclock setting.

hi,i used the latest download from peteralfonso.com website -its for stock roms -a star is beside it to let you know its the latest version....just click on deodexed(i used this version*)-it will download to rom manager-flash using clockwork mod recovery-this worked for me -i was rooted on 2.2 before i flashed this and didn't lose root afterwards....hope i answered your question,i'm still new at using android os(coming from apple os)
ps:use your xda app on your android phone-much easier to apply downloads
To everybody trying to root just factory reset and then use a one click rooting method
No ever since i got froyo second update FRF22 i never being able to get 1 click root solution.

I'm in the same boat. Can somebody brilliant help us out?
Have you guys tried superoneclick? It worked on the last update and I'm pretty sure motorola only added 2 minor changes to this update
I've tried it many times with no success but I got it to work with an older version. Now I need to find a good rom lol.

Since 2.2.3 is an antiquated version of Android, there are no ROMs based on it. All Droid developers have put their efforts into maintaining Gingerbread (2.3.x) on the phone.
Ok but does anyone why my phone is showing the triangle and exclamation point tin g when I try to reboot into cwmz?

I just sucessfully rooted my wife's original Verizon Moto Droid using superoneclick. It came from the one click thread found here --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=803682
The key was to go go the bottom of the page and download the 2.2 version and not the 2.3
Hope this helps
I just got a droid a couple days ago and had this problem. What i did to fix it was used rsdlite to downgrade using the .sbf file for android version 2.2.2. Once at stock android 2.2.2 i rooted(search for tutorials its pretty easy). Once your rooted download rom manager. If you go into rom manager, flask clockworkmod recovery, then browse the downloable roms on rom manager you can find Peter Alfonso's roms. He has a rooted stock 2.2.3 rom. It is a long process but it works for me after not being able to find a way to root 2.2.3. Hope this long explanation helps.

You need to rename a file on your /system partition that overwrites clockwork.
http://androidforums.com/droid-all-...k-custom-recovery-wont-stick.html#post1448841
You will need to remount /system as read-write to do this.
Can you provide more detail? Where did you find the 2.2.2 .sbf file?

One Click Root

So every post or site i find thru google, including the main post on here, that tells you how to do it, and gives you the zip with all the files in it that oyu need, the link to download that zip no longer works, i've tried so many different links, all of them thru multiupload and it always errors. So can someone help me find a working link, or just tell me everything that is in the zip so i can download it individually ! The help would be much appreciated !
well after lots of frustration i finally found the right files and my phone is rooted. I installed Busybox (super user was auto-instsalled when rooted) and i put CWM on there. SO now that i have clockworkrecovery, how exactly do you boot into recovery mode on the LG ? I kno how to do it with the droid x and droid 2 global, but this is my first non-Motorola android phone.
apparently, when i was in CLockworkMod, i selected the downlaod rom option so i could see what roms where there, and it says I need to install clockworkreocvery first (thought it was already installed) and so i click install, but the list of phones that pops up does not have my phone on it, the only LG phone it has is the Esteem. So how do i get ClockWorkRecovery to install and work ?

What you are using is an app called ROM Manager and you cannot install Clockworkmod Recovery from that app. No features on that app are compatible with the Revolution.
You need to go to this thread to download and install Clockworkmod Recovery. Just follow the instructions in this post and it will get you Clockworkmod Recovery:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1348557
yea i already had it installed, ClockWorkMod just seems to think it isn't, but if i click the reboot into recovery option from within ClockWorkMod, it does indeed boot into ClockWorkReocvery just fine. But I wasn't aware that clockworkmod didn't work for LG Revolution. Why is that ? I loved using it when I had my Droid X. They should fix that !
and so where can i find the ROMs for the LG Revolution ? I would also like to find some themes and what not.

The other ROMs listed on theunlockr.com are most likely Froyo builds. There are only 2 Gingerbread builds. Just flash the kernel, then you can use an app like SetCPU or CPUtuner or ROM Toolbox Pro (recommended) to adjust the kernel settings.
How do you flash the kernel ?

Just like you would a ROM, then grab some kind of CPU tuning app so you can overclock or underclock, whichever you want.

[Q] No service

I updated to 2.3.5 then rooted with megaton root, installed touch recovery.
Installed cm7.2 and gapps. All good but service at all. Switched to vengeance with gb baseband and same problem. All else is perfect. I did A factory data wipe twice.

Did you flash V20P?
OR
Did you Flash CM7 from P925?
I just flashed cm7 from the site for p925. Then I flashed vengeance 03d for p920 with gingerbread baseband. It worked with froyo so not sure if the model # means a lot.
Ok I see. I did both. I did the official gingerbread update with the lg update tool then I rooted then flashed touch recovery. Then flashed cm7.2 releases on 3/15/2011. That's when I lost wireless service. I then got vengeance rom because I thought I needed a gb baseband. All functions of phone still work with the exception of the wireless. Help pleeeeaaassseee!!!
It doesn't want to detect any networks at all. Wifi works like it should.
if you updated with the lg tool you have a gingerbread BaseBand so no matter what rom you flash you keep you BB it doent change it cant be flashed with CWM so what rom are you on now vengeance or CM 7.2?
Vengeance but I still have the 7.2 zip file

By official, you AT&T update, correct?
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S II w/ CM9
Yes. I updated to gb with lg update tool. Worked 100%
Then I flashed cm7.2 no data did factory reset still no data. Flashed vengeance for gb baseband and still no data. ThAts how it stands right now.
It won't find any networks at all, AT&T, t-mobile, nothing. Both of those showed up with both of these ROMs before on a different lg thrill that had froyo.
If I can't get it working I'm stuck with the iphone3gs for a while. I'm prepared to answer any questions and follow any instructions. I will flash it back to stock and leave it that way if I must.

I really DON'T want to advertise, but currently Lestatious BioHazard 2.9 supports V20P. You just have to choose that kernel when it asks.
Can you hook me up with a link. I tried that with my other phone but it said the file was invalid. I will try it and if it's no good I got a stock link you sent me previously and ima use that last. Stock is last choice!

My phone didn't recognise the lestatious bastard(will have pc acess over the weekend) flashed stock rooted and still no signal. Reflashed cyanogen for the fast wifi and ,presto, no status bar! Can I possibly go back to stock with the lg updated ergency tool?
The notification bar and fc issues are new. After returning it to stock I believe but not 100%
