Hi, today my g1 with my legend rom download this update.... any dev want to use it??
legend update
MD5: 2EC28B412FF142380B8148301EE2B046
or where I can find an "how to" to use it??
for not dev DO NOT FLASH!!! IT'S ONLY FOR HTC LEGEND!!
do i just flash this over your other legend rom?
no..it's not an update for my rom....but is an OTA update...
It's probably just the Market Update. The Legend Market was missing some apps. If it's an OTA, I would Flash it over in Recovery with No-Wipe.
patch updates
These patch updates can be a pain in the arse.. so far the only way I've found to use them is to modify the updater-script to bypass the security checks, and make sure its not "updating" or changing something I don't want it to, resign, and apply the update. Than once its done pull the nand image off the phone, unpack it, convert it to an update.zip so the rest of the world can enjoy.. maybe there's a better way but that's the best I can offer.
does this help in any way?
i mean... there are .p files in it. probably patching the original ones... anybody knows how to apply it?

Dude.. one post up. I just told you.
I did this back when cupcake got its crc patch ota update I just didn't share it with the world.. enomther did.
The OTA is actually for upgrades to the system which is going to allow for better performance with the use of certain apps. Some apps will also be upgraded as well.
I received the OTA today, and that what was suggested in the message I received.
However the download failed to install to my SDcard. Instead my phone automatically went into recovery, and just rebooted from there.
I'm still receiving the option to update via OTA. I just check off "Install Later".
If this is only for the Legend how come it's in a thread for the G1 Delsa. I got confused for a minute...lol...

This is good because we don't have to extract an RUU anymore, unfortunately the apps are odexed.
Nevermind, this is useless. It's just a whole bunch of patch (.p) files... pointless. move on people, or get to work extracting the RUU (find in legend forums)

cyanogenmod superD etc... not too hard to find one.
it's the goal of every rom on this board...
Take the following steps to downgrade to 2.1 and download the newest firmware for the Samsung Captivate.
1. Master Reset
2. Revert to Stock 2.1 (using odin oneclick)
3. Download MINI Kies from samsung's website
4. reboot phone
5. plug in captivate
viola! took me awhile to figure it out but i got it... testing the ground for when the official 2.2 comes out.
2.2 was laggy for me... while the features are great I hate when things do not work correctly. Let me know if this worked for you.
Jh7? Our is there a newer one
Yay no more fc
still JH7 but no more lag!

the info you read is 3 years old. look at the date! the thread subject is misleading.
search the stickies in the captivate development forum. you want a 2.3 stock rom, gingerbread, as starting point. not 2.1
sent from one of my two SGH-I897 Captivates
I'm a bit confused. I've been reading online for a while, and don't fully understand the ROMs available and what not. (I am a computer programmer, so I'm fairly tech savvy).
Basically, my evo shift has 2.3.3. I did a factory reset hoping it would back down to 2.2, but it did not. Now, I'd like to install 2.2 so I can root my phone. Is there a way I can do this? I've also seen a few roms (ie: evervolv) that are rooted. How can I install these (i'm using a mac).
Also, what do you guys recommend? Should I install a ROM, downgrade to 2.2 (how?) and root, etc?
Thanks!
You cannot downgrade to Froyo.. Sorry. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1218580

You can only temp root right now with 2.3 on the Shift. A factory reset just wipes everything and basically gives you a clean OS...it's like getting a new phone. The good folks at HTC should be releasing the the source code and kernel between now and EOL of the phone.

When ppl aren't sure what they are reading they have to ask. It may seem stupid to ppl who aren't new but to someone new, I can see it happening, especially if they don't want to brick their phone!
just my 1.5 cents worth
Yeah, I've read lots. I posted because it's good to have clarification.
I've read that you cannot "downgrade" to 2.2 from 2.3, but that doesn't necessarily answer my question if I can flash a 2.2 ROM..
I know 2.3.3 isn't rooted yet, but that doesn't necessarily mean I can't flash a ROM with an older, rooted version (very common in modchips for gaming systems.. If the company releases an update, you can usually re-flash the chip to the old update and be good to go).
So, it seems that if my phone is 2.3, my *ONLY* option is to temp root, is that correct (impossible to reflash, reprogram, etc)?

You need root and recovery (or the old hboot) in order to flash anything. So yes, until a new root method is found your only option is to temp root.

They could just have an error screen explaining why they can't post. Let them know they have to be a member for certain amount of time, or there could even be a kind of peer review, where existing developers can vouch for the new member.

I thought this was already the case.
Questions like this should be asked in the Q&A forum. Period.
Also, one should spend time reading the first 1-2 pages of each forum, ESPECIALLY sticky threads before posting. It is obviously clear that the original poster did not spend ANY time reading.
I was a noob once too - but I took the time to do my research and spent an evening or two browsing threads and learning when I first flashed my HTC Tilt. Same for when I bought my Tilt2. Same for when I bought my Huawei S7, and same for when I bought my Infuse and Tab 10.1.
The "teach a man to fish" proverb applies here. If you just handhold a user, they will never learn anything. If you force them to spend some time reading threads, they'll start learning how to educate themselves and learn a new device without asking questions about stuff that is widely documented.

That's no excuse! I've been in this game for years and have learned almost everything I know simply by reading. If I can do it so can the noobs. Period. This guy deserves everything and anything he gets. I'm with Entropy. They must be forced to learn!
I'd say "ok guys back to topic" but instead I'll say "crap, here comes Neo again!"
Agreed.
A bit of reading would help everyone. Generally speaking, most questions have probably been asked before and even if they haven't; it is best to search anyway because you might stumble across the answer.
I'm all about being helpful, but constantly coddling people while they do the wrong thing isn't helping anyone. I want us to have a large user base so that our development continues to expand, but not just so that we have a lot of ignorant people running around posting the same thing over and over without doing a bit of searching.
It isn't as if this post was some desperate call for help because their phone stopped working after installing a ROM. It was just someone being lazy.
