Just got a notification to update to ZV8 on my GVolted revo. Anyone else seen this or know what is updating? I cancelled it until I found out more about it. Verizon's Revolution support site only mentions zv7.

Yup, just got the notice. Am on GV2.0 also.

I was tempted to let the update go through to see what it did, but I'm currently driving from San Francisco to yuma, AZ and need my phone for navigation/music purposes and didn't want to kill my phone for the rest of my trip if something went wrong.
I am curious to know what it does though, if anyone's brave enough to risk losing root, or updates by accident

LG revo update
Found this:
support.verizonwireless.com/pdf/system_update/revolution.pdf
any way to stop besides deferring?
Don't update unless you put stock recovery back on other wise it will fail then you are going to see if you can get root again hopefully, one of the newer exploits for the esteem/spectrum might help with this.

Wifes phone updated and radio, kernal, build #, and sw version changed. It just said phone enhancements so im not sure what yet...lol. Tried mine for the hell of it and downloaded fine but wouldnt install due to clockwork, so i just rebooted and all is same as it was. Will switch recoveries later and try again.

Edit: kernal did not change but it is android 2.3.6 now
So now with this new update they can remotely get into your phone and troubleshoot it. Little creepy there lol. I'm only on my first replacement now when I call get will want to troubleshoot the thing.

HA.. that is creepy. I am sure MT will find a way to block that on next GingerVolt.
Cant seem to get stock recovery back on here. I followed steps and it said it was good to go but when update tries to install it goes back to clockwork. Any help would be cool. Thanks

Went to a Verizon store and they said that the reboot issue is still an issue for people. I've had 7 reboots since I updated the day the update came out.
I guess the messaging not working right, is an issue also but I don't have that issue.
Anyone having issues or am I the unlucky one lol??

Seriously.. I have had this on 2 different revos ever since going to Gingerbread.

I only get the unresponsive screen here and there and that's on GV 2.0 gets quite annoying especially playing games.
Random reboots
I am willing to see if I get the random screen freezes vs the random reboots I was getting on my GV install.
Yeah
I had the same issues and called Verizon yesterday to let them trouble shoot the phone and it went south quick. They had me try a few things and eventually done a factory wipe only to get to the language screen and once I selected next to start activation BAM! Reboot so they asked me what phone I wanted! Offered me a Nexus I told them no don't like them, and it was going to be a used one to boot!! So ended up letting them give me a Brand New Razor Maxx it will be here Friday!! Love the Revo only had it 3 months, but time to move on I guess keep up the good work guys you will eventually get these to work but I cant wait that long!!!
Just had my first random reboot, should probably call Verizon before my warranty runs out.

That's why. Give it a few more times and they'll switch it more than likely. They tried to get me a different phone but they said after multiple replacements they will send a different phone.

I did unroot before calling but it didn't matter, I mentioned the random reboots and threw in the unresponsive screen (even though it only happened once) The rep immediately offered to send a replacement. He first asked if I had done the usual troubleshooting (powercycle, factory reset, etc...) and I said yes.
But you would definitely want to unroot it before mailing it back
I only unrooted first due to the new remote access they have ... didn't know how much info they could get with it.
Curious if anyone knows the status of the Force Roam option.
I've really enjoyed having that option on my HTC EVO LTE.
Thanks
I've heard a rumor that Roam Control works on it. Haven't had a chance to test it out, I'll see if it works at all sometime later today. I too would enjoy having the ability to force roam (I live in the vicinity of a rural area so at times it's needed) - is great on my EVO LTE running MeanBean.
I've ported the mod but it's not working it worked on the sense 5 port for the ELTE

Roam control v1.4 does work, it's an old version but you should still be able to find the apk.

Ah I got it. Thanks I've never dabbled in force roaming before outta fear of Sprint axing my contract for "excessive roaming" and that causing my wife to kick my a** lol but I'm checking into it to see the difference in speeds and just use it in a "as needed" situation. I've come to the understanding that with the right mods you can do the ##778# and edit the prl from there but I'm not entirely sure yet what all that entails. I was just checking around in there and when I selected edit mode under the prl option it asked me for a password and I'm not sure what password it wants. Lol still digging but I'm at work now(in a warehouse so reception is god awful) so after work I may looking into it more. Thanks again any further knowledge anyone shares is much appreciated.

Okay, the RoamControl app does not work on an un-rooted phone. Confirmed using version 2.7 and selecting htc unrooted in options. The developer does not return emails, so those that are looking to roam on a stock device will have to wait for the app to be updated.
It's cool tho, I will be rooted as soon as I'm convinced this phones hardware is worthy of the pounding I'm gonna put on it over the next year! hehe
Peace.

Because dr87 is the best developer on here for us. Fact ? I've been running it since the first build in January. So awesome. He's pumped so much source from the N5 into this ROM, its incredible. Stability and performance is second to none.
I installed it but my wireless charging did not work so I uninstalled it. Anybody knows about a fix?
Is see its available for Verizon correct
