My MMS will not send out but i can receive them. I don't know what could be the problem.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ever since i moved to New Orleans i have been having horrible data and wifi connections. Ex. Ill try to upload a picture to instagram or download a app from the playstore and it wont download. Its SOOOOO annoying. It doesn't matter if its 3G 4G or Wifi all the same results.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Im on sprint and i heard something about if you downgrade to 4.2 and accept the OTA to 4.4 you will get bricked. Well when a OTA comes i want to be able to update so how can i ready my phone for this? Im on stock 4.4 with unlocked bootloader, root, and CWM recovery.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Everytime i post something in the Q&A thread i never get any replies. SO any replies would be helpful. If you could solve one of my problems ill be thankful.

there is the thread...number 10 or so if you searched for "bootloader".
it might take some time when searching but it will help you learn more if you dot he searching yourself.

You can't downgrade the bootloader (hboot) version, period. End of story. This is NOT the end of the world though! The 2.1 leaked RUU that you used should have been a rooted developers ROM so you can use that to restore your phone, install the custom recovery, then use whatever ROM you want.

does the bootloader stopper you from using a 1.5 ROM? does it stop you from completely unrooting? i guess what im asking is, can you still flash a stock nandroid and stock recovery, would sprint notice?

If they need/want to reflash, then they will notice. You can just wait 1-? weeks for the official 2.1 Ruu, which likely will use the new bootloader.
Look, the just posted a release signed with Release keys instead of test keys. Once this is put into a proper RUU with Root it MAY fix your issue, give it 24 hours.

@ jlem26
I read this from the sprint community forum:
From Android Central When it rains, it pours. Just got word of a new leak for the HTC Sprint Hero. No way of knowing if this is the final 2.1 version, but this one is signed with release keys so you will lose your root for sure if you're into that sort of thing. Anyone who feels brave and wants to try for themselves you can find it here. Remember, this is not official software from any carrier. Using this is at your own risk, and nobody here at Android Central is suggesting you try it, though we're more than happy to show you where it is. Thanks Beezy420! http://www.4shared.com/file/gfPzbRcS/RUU_Hero_C_Sprint_2276515_R_si.html Haven't tried it myself...But I figured I'd post it..
I downloaded it, but I'm scared to try it.......
The new 2.1 leak is almost certainly the final, so the official Sprint update will prob. be out next week.
WARNING: the new leak is NOT ROOTED, and the old rooting methods will NOT work. (Someone took one for the team and already RUU'ed the new leak, and confirmed he could not root afterwords.)
Presumably someone somewhere is already trying new ways to root this upgrade.
I've attempted root three ways now. NO GO!
Yes, I took one for the TEAM and went ahead and ran the RUU, it's fast clean and works fine so far.
BUT.....it closes the ability to ROOT....you've been warned!
Thanks,
Bubba.
thanks for being brave! Have you had any problems so far.
No problems at all.
Phone runs smooth and fast.
Only issue is that I have NO root now. But I knew the choices going into this option.
Having said that, and being able to officially tell everyone that it in fact breaks the root abilities.....is there anyone attempting to get root with this version or will we just ignore it?
Thanks,
Bubba.
I don't see it getting ignored. I wouldn't be surprised if someone somewhere was already working on trying to figure it out.
Is the 2.1 Droid rootable?
My phone is running build FRF33B (googling this build number returned no results at all). It was a non public build. I got the phone from Adobe as part of a (kongregate) promotion to get flash developers to edit some games so they could run on froyo, and hence I really don't know what was done to the phone before I got it (there's an unlocked symbol when it boots, and even though it's a t-mobile nexus I'm using it on AT&T's network).
FRF33B is nice and usable (but full of minor bugs which get irritating after a while), and I'd really like to update to the latest stable build, but it's not receiving any of the OTA updates, and trying to install any manually gives me a package signing verification failure.
Does anyone here know how I can update the phone? Do I need to downgrade it somehow? Do I need to root it? Any help would be appreciated.
Downgrade to erd79 would be my best suggestion and it will update to frf91 I hope that helps and if u need a update zip let me know and I can email it to u
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
Or just unlock your phone, put a custom recovery, and install whatever ROM you want. Look at the sticky in the development section for details.
Option 3: Search around for the FRF91 Universal update.zip, copy it to your SD card, and flash it via stock recovery.

ok I've done this, and flashed the universal FRF91, now the phone is stuck on the animated X, is this normal? Do I just have to wait or did I do something wrong?
edit: it looks like it just rebooted itself.... still not getting past the animated x part though
edit: wiped the phone and tried again, now it works... got to set up everything on the phone again though and download my apps again... oh well. thanks for the help
I have a nexus one on android 2.2.1, when 2.2 was release i received the update pretty quickly.
However i have stayed on 2.2.1 ever since
With members posting OTA released of 2.3.4 im like wtf!
I have tried to install the updates manually by: update.zip on root and applying in the recovery screen - this has never worked for me, i get a verification error
Now im posting this in the hope that someone can help me update please!!!
Note: My n1 is not rooted and i would like it to stay like that also im only interested in updating to stock roms.
p.s. i try the *#*#2432546#*#* nearly everyday to check for updates.
p.p.s. im from the UK and am on Vodafone if that makes a difference.
Many Thanks
Vodafone use their own tweaked version of Android, and so you have to wait for Vodafone to tweak the update before you get it...
You can use the passimg method to put a completely stock Google Android on your phone, but will lose some data doing it...
Thanks for the post danger-rat, i didnt know vodafone did that.
Will look into passimg.
Cheers
For anyone else having this problem i have found a great guide on how to go from a vodafone rom to a google stock rom
http://ossadmin.wordpress.com/2011/02/26/goodbye-vodafone-uk-nexus-one-rom/
I haven't tried this yet but will soon and update to whether it works.
The above method works, the only problem i had was the passimg rom gave "Main Version is Order" error.
This was resolved by using the rom from:

I am now on android 2.3.4 google rom, still unrooted
Hello guys.
This is my first time posting on XDA. Although I have been going to XDA alot of times because I usually find help regarding my phone here. I hope any mistakes I made in this thread is forgiven. xD
Anyway, my problem is that I cannot update my phone to the latest gingerbread version which is the 2.3.5.
But here is the weird part. I did get an update notification that asked me to update. This notification came a few days ago. However, I could not update the phone at that time since I was not at home.
Then when I was finally ready to update, I pressed the 'check now' button at Settings > About Phone > Software Updates. However, the phone said that my phone is already up to date. But it is weird since when I check it, it still says that my phone is currently on 2.3.3. Soo, can anyone please help me?
Thanks for reading. Any replies is greatly appreciated.
Keep checking..
Or you could look in the ruu thread for an update for your region/carrier.
Just make sure that you have researched enough about the subject before you do the update as many users get problems with it, especially if they have unlocked hboot.
Thanks for replying.
About the RUU, isn't the RUU is for those who rooted their phones and wanted to return to stock so they can update? Or something like that?
And the reason I'm wondering is because my phone is not rooted, or unlocked in any way. Still a virgin phone. lol.
ruu's are official updates from htc, although many users with rooted,unlocked,custom roms use them.
will be much easier for someone with a virgin phone to use ruu update but you must be very sure that its for your phones carrier
the best way for you is to keep checking for an update through your phone many many times until you get tired from it but failing that, the ruu option comes a close second
Hi Buddy!, Why don't you update your device via the downloaded RUU file but not the OTA? Have a try!
Really? My bad then. Since I never got interested in rooting, I never really researched more about ROMs so when I did a quick google search of RUU I thought it is related to rooting. xD
If RUU is more suitable for a phone that is still unrooted, how may I do the update? Would it be possible for you to provide a guide, link, reference or anything that might help?
Another thing, if I do this RUU update, will the contents of my phone stay in there? Or are they going to be wiped clean?
Thanks again.
heres a list of the ruu's

So I got fed up with the phone as it was and updated it to the info above. I have never done this before and just did it following the info instructions on droidhive. Didnt do anything more than back up contacts and downloaded the ICS leak and installed it with out bootstrap this or bootloader that or anything. Probably did more than I should have as I dont undertand anything about rooting or ROMS or anything else.
Now my understanding from reading here is when and if Verizon does a OTA upgrade I will not either 1) recieve notification nor 2) be able to download it is that correct? I also cannot go back to my old build since I didnt , insert magic special thing I should have downloaded or installed prior to me updating, is that correct also? Can I do further upgrades that I have been reading about on this forum as written and in theory if I follow the instructions should be ok? or do I need to go back to the old build (if possible) then work my way back up?
I probably should have left well enough alone but I was getting so pissed with my phone and I tell you since I upgraded to that leak it runs very nice with a few hiccups when I try and run different apps. Figure if I screw it up too bad I can always get the Samsung Siii...and not mess with it...thanks for entertaining this newb!!
Take a look at this thread. It shows how to get back to .905, or to go to newer versions without losing your data. As of right now, I suggest going with the .232 leak, which is the latest you can go to while still being able to return your phone to gingerbread.

I agree.. if you are running 223 right now.. i would stick with it till the ota. You might not recieve notification but either way, you will be able to dl the image and load it the same was as you did with 223. seeing as how it will be signed it shouldn't be a problem. I have been running 223 for a few days now and overall i'm very happy with it. i just wish that i could turn the 4g off sometimes because it's a beast on the battery in my area..
I'm Loving the .223 update. It has made my Bionic into the phone Verizon should have provided me from day one!!! It isn't perfect, but it is darn good, miles, yards, acres, even years ahead of Gingerbread.

Guys still running above on the phone but have read of some upgrade/ROMs that I'd like to do, but it says I need to be rooted and I never rooted even when I did the upgrade shown above. Everything Im reading on how to root is assuming Im on the stock GB does it matter that Im not on GB and I still can do it on ICS the same way? Please advise on steps to root it now so I can continue upgrading and installing ROMS...thanks!
