I have a dev phone with the most recent jf update. My phone is prompting me to update with a holiday update or something like that. Do I need to do that? Or will it screw with jf update?
Thanks
***Update*** Its prompting me like every 15 minutes. Its driving me crazy!
either allow the update or get JF's 1.43
I went ahead and downloaded the OTA update, and I no longer have JFv1.41. Which is fine with me, since I have a dev1. I didnt use the multitouch or the auto-rotate anyway. As long as I have root, and tethering, im a happy man!

My wife and I both have a G1. I have had mine rooted for a week or so, updated to RC33 yesterday, and I rooted my wife's phone and updated last night...
Well, my wife's G1, after a reboot, gets to the Android screen (after 'T-Mobile G1' screen), and the android flashes. So I put her back to RC29 till I can get it figured out.
Just now, mine suddenly rebooted and is doing the same. There are no corrupt files, all were fresh. Install and root were followed step by step......HELP!
rc33
I would recommend wiping then go back to rc29 and then update from their to rc33 hope that helps
Did you have themes installed??
If yes, are they for RC-33?
You can not use any theme you like with RC-33.
An idea.
I'm running JF1.41 RC33. I just got a notice on my phone of an update available. How is this possible? I thought I can't get OTA updates (and never did until today) with my rooted phone with JF ROMs.
What should I do? I'm ignoring it for now.
Update: it is an update for DroidSand. First time I got a notification without the app being open.
I am rooted using the Universal Xoom Root method. I am still running stock, only with SU and apps which require SU. Why can I not accept an OTA update? It seems like the worse that could happen is it overwrite the SU.apk and I need to re-root.
Thanks in advance.
I was wondering about this as well. I am rooted and am running Rogue kernel. I guess I'll just update and see what happens. Worse comes to worse, I will have to re-root.
Seems like the Xoom forums are quiet...did a lot of people abandon the device for the Galaxy Tab 10.1...When previous OTAs happened, the forums were chock full of chatter about to or not to accept the update.
Yeah, I just tried an OTA update and it wouldn't work. Got the Droid with exclamation point. Up + power put me back where I was.

same here. No dice on the update, just stuck at the install screen. On a positive note, the update notifications are gone. Damn those were annoying.
If you root, even without any additional custom ROM/kernel mods, you may receive notification of an OTA update but you should not accept it and try to install it. It will probably put you into a bootloop or worse.
If you wish to root, don't worry. Our wonderful developers are hard at work right now, configuring an update for the device...we'll more then likely get it before the official release comes out OTA.
Anyway, you can always revert back to stock if you really want the OTA update, but stock is boring.
place your unrooted backup on, take update and reroot.
if you don't have one, their are some around.
I keep a backup that isn't rooted with all my apps installed, then when update comes, it is real quick to restore, update and reroot ....

Yeah, diddo here with it not bothering me about OTA updates anymore after trying. It didn't put me in a boot loop, just the pretty droid screaming (exclamation point)
I have a backup from before I rooted, but what the heck, it didn't hurt anything, and I was just playing around.
Thanks for everyone's input.
Spoke too soon. The update is back to nagging me again. Errrrrrrr
Why can't they just push out ICS for the Xoom. Hell, they showed ICS on the Verizon Xoom at LeWeb this week.

Title says it all. I am trying to update (from Froyo) with LG update tool. Everything seemed to go well but now its stuck at 4%. How do I go about disconnecting and trying again? We're talking right now....been stuck there according to elapsed time 1 hr 27 minutes. If I just disconnect the phone will I brick it?

Go to that post. It has what to do. I was stuck on it also. I did that.
Thanks for the reply. I ended up disconnecting it and removing the battery. When I turned it back on, it was still on the upgrade screen. Plugged it back in and it restatrted the download and completed it. I guess I'm on the new firmware now.
V21e?
Thats old. New baseband is v21y.
P.S: Sorry, didn't see you were on froyo before. Yeah then it did update it for you. Its just that a new firmware was made available from LG a while back.
So I should do it again?
No. You won't be able to. Its been pulled. Wait for a few weeks. If you are on stock rom, You will get OTA update to v21y from tmobile or LG.
I thought they reposted it yesterday, available for manual download? That's why I tried it today.....
Edit....OK I reread it on Tmobiles site.

OTA Update
The G2x will receive a notification that the update is available.
Select Update.
The update will install.
Once complete the phone will restart.
It says it will come to you. Go to your software update and see if it lets you update. I think its on their timing. Not yours. Then again, I am not with any US Carrier so i don't know how the update might work. Sorry.
im already on ice cream but it said there was another update out there for it but it wont allow me to update or even check for an update

Who or what is IT? Your TF is telling you there's an update or the internet?
sorry guess that would help lol androidcentral said while back there was an update to fix some bugs and i havent been able to get it to update
ok now i see there is another update and mine is not allowing me to check for the update
Hmm.. Pretty similar problem here; running.. 21, us_epad version (ota, which is a bit strange to me as I live in the Netherlands), unrooted; and however I know 24 is out there, if I push check update button, all I get is spinning wheel and than no connection fault report.. Anybody any ideas/ help, plz?
Mine epad is us too and i also live in the netherlands! I bought it on vacation in california!
Mine experience once was that it wouldn't update from honeycomb too ics. Weird cause of the fact that us -software versions are quicker released then european. Sad too say mine never updated normally and i rooted it and flashed a custom rom offcourse with ics support.
i ended up just resetting it and clearing everything once it loads back up and u set it back up it will ask to update takes about 5 mins or so and u will be on the latest one
