Why is my Motorola Milestone XT720 trying to update when 2.2 isn't out?... - Milestone XT720 General

Yesterday I randomly turned on 'Check For Update' on my Milestone XT720 in case 2.2 came out at some point and an update appeared although it did not indicate if it was Froyo. All it said was an update was found, so I downloaded the update and tried to update. Sure enough it failed though so obviously it's not Froyo for the XT720. Does anyone know why my phone keeps trying to update now to something it cannot update too?

It could be the 720MHz update rom.
I've updated manually with RSD Lite, still 2.1 but some interesting improvement in video and other things.

Even if it were the 720MHz update, the update will not work. That's the strange thing. I have deleted the update and redownloaded it twice, and even after going into recovery and trying to update my phone that way it still will not download to my phone. That's why I don't get why I'm being asked to download something that doesn't even seem to be compatible with my XT720.

Hey! How do you delete it???

moto release a soft pack for cpu,i think u got it!

New OTA FRG22D Update.zip

This is the newest OTA update...
***Boot into recovery, flash, directly after the update finishes(DO NOT REBOOT YET)--> flash the attached root_update.zip, NOW reboot
This is just for Milestone and Droid, not Milestone XT720 or Motoroi correct?

This breaks root, you really should test stuff before release. Now I have to re-root the hard way.
Ya its OTA.
Booo! :/
I updated my [rooted] Droid to the FRG22 build and it totally messed with my phone... I kept getting the "Low Disk Space" notification (despite the fact that I have almost 15 Gigs of memory available) and it was rejecting incoming texts for almost 24 hours before I finally reverted back to my backup of FRG01B. Complete pain in the a$$! I've been getting the System Update message as well... Not touching that until these bugs get squashed. Be careful if you push this update!
for those getting the notifications, im using the BB FRG01B and i got the notification for the update last week but since i am rooted and have spbrecovery
it wont allow the update.zip to be installed, i went to update for the heck of it but it blocks it because you have to go in and allow update.zip before you can apply any updates. so since i let it update but got blocked, the notification went away
try at your own risk

[Q] Android New Market

Few days ago I updated my Motorola Defy to Froyo.
After I updated I noticed the market had the old version, I found a zip file of the new version and flashed it, everything seemed to be fine, the market was working well, but then I tried to update an application and it suddenly gave me a FC...
I even tried reflashing a different zip but it still gave me the error.
Since then I can't access the market..
Anyone knows what's the problem/how can I fix it?
Thanks.
Does it occur when you try to update one particular application or any appliation?
I don't know, because The first application I wanted to update already caused it, and if it matters, and I don't think it does, it was Basketball Shot
did you give it a chance to automatically update the market for you? When I flashed to a new rom on my Captivate, it was still on the old market for a few minutes until it installed to the new version.
Yeah.. I waited for 2 days and it didn't update it.

Still no 2.2.2 OTA?

My unrooted Nexus One STILL hasnt received the 2.2.2 OTA update and manually updating always fails (says it cannot verify or something).
Should I be worried about this? Also has everyone else received their OTA or am I the only one that hasnt yet?
Thanks.
Hey guys i just wanted to add that after a couple more days theres still no 2.2.2 here. Manual update not working yet either i cant find a fix. Any solutions anybody?

[Q] I'mgetting "Error in /tmp/sideload/package.zip" when I try to update my Nexus S

[Q] I'mgetting "Error in /tmp/sideload/package.zip" when I try to update my Nexus S
I've searched countless times on how to fix this, yet every time I find a thread containing someone asking about this they never answer it or they're dealing with a rooted device.
My device is not, and has never been, rooted. Never manually updated anything on the phone before trying now.
I tried to manually update to 2.3.3 after never receiving the OTA. Then I tried the 2.3.4 update and I keep getting the "Error in /tmp/sideload/package.zip" message.
Can someone explain, or point me in the direction, of a non-rooted answer. Why am I getting this message to begin with?
Do you own the European version? The SLCD 19023 one?
No, it's the American version.
It's weird because I received the 2.3.2 update. But aftr that...I never got the 2.3.3 pushed to me. And now when I try to manually update to the .3 or .4 update...I keep getting that message.

me too. the same problem with my Nexus S
And me too, Davey. Same problem. Bought the Nexus S in New York on late December and I live in Spain. My phone is unrooted.
Haven't received the OTA for 2.3.3 yet and tried both manually updates for 2.3.3 and 2.3.4, but getting the same message as you.
It's frustrating!
Same problem here with a UK-bought Nexus S. I have tried with the bootloader Locked and Unlocked. Although bought in UK there is no guarantee that it is not an American import. It was bought from Carphone Warehouse who seem to source their kit from any where they can get it.
So as other people are successfully installing it has to be something specific to this physical handset.

So from the few posts here it's seeming like an international device issue...but yet I'm in the States. So I don't get it.
It's just frustrating that I can't get an answer about it. Many a people are speaking on it, but nobody can explain or solve it. Sigh.
Same issue as you - error in /tmp/sideload
I have Nexus S 2.3.3 (manually updated) from US. I am trying to manually bump it to 2.3.4 -- same issue. I have rooted & unlocked the device. No Mods here.
Same error.

Build GRI40
Updated!!!
OK guys -- Finally figured out the problem for /tmp/sideload/package.zip.
If there is any change to the bootloader by any app (RomManager or has ClockWorkMod), then you won't be manually be able to upgrade to 2.3.4
Solution for those on GRI40 2.3.3
1. Flash stock 2.3.3 gingerbread again in recovery more. Do a quick search on XDA and grab it. Almost 90 MB file.
2. Once flashed - Boot it, sign in with google account and under setting, privacy - do a factory data reset. Start it clean. I DID NOT checked the SD card data.
3. Flashed 2.3.3 in recovery again.
4. Reboot it. Did not signed in once booted. Turn USB ON. Put the 2.3.4 file (around 12 MB).
5. Flash it again in recovery mode.
6. I signed in to Google account without restoring my backup.
That's it. On 2.3.4 - Unlocked state remains!
Hi there!
Finally managed to install the 2.3.4 version on my Nexus S and works perfect! Already tried the Google Talk video chat and it's fantastic.

[Q] Gingerbread update is here!

Info Can be found here, http://support.vzw.com/system_update/droid_2_global.html
Confirmed on Verizons Twitter feed that the Gingerbread release has been rolling out since the end of August.
Do a 'checkin' (*#*#checkin#*#*) on your phone then Settings > About Phone > System updates. Keep trying if none is found.
System Version: 4.5.607.A956.Verizon.en.US
Android Version: 2.3.3
Baseband Version: N_01.79.00R
Kernal Version: 2.6.32.9-gb092e69 [email protected] #2
Build Numbe: 4.5.1_57_D2G-37
ERI Version: 5
PRL Version: 52341
3G signal has been improved with this radio and speeds are more constant and faster.
You will have to go back to stock before you will even be notified of the update. When I had my droid 1 it took a week after the release before I received the update to 2.2

A great write up, but darn my windows machine and Linux in-experiences
http://technology.gather.com/viewArticle.action?articleId=281474979452576
here is another news story on it.
Anyone updated yet
I have tried on 2 stock roms (rooted) and neither say there is an update available - before going back to stock via the 11 step process, has anyone actually updated their device yet - or am I just not patient enough and the update is actually rolling out slowly and not available manually? Any help is appreciated, since I would hate to blast phones to get the update (i would rather wait on a rooted version, but would love to get a better experience than the current ROM provides!)

I too would rather wait for a rooted version but I'm too excited to use Gingerbread. I will roll back my rom to the original tonight via Moto RSD Lite and then try the update, I will report back if all goes well... or not, hehe.

try *#*#checkin#*# or the other way around, i forgot.
My wife has the D2 Global on vzw. running the orig 2.2 not rooted or bootstrapped.
No update notifications / plus the software update says the phone is up to date.
*#*#2432546#*#*
Checkin works fine, still no update atleast in the Phoenix Metro Cell System.
Just tried checkin as well and no gingerbread love here, either. In Columbus, Ohio. I believe the update is still in it's "soak-test" phase, which means only a select few will actually receive it just yet. My guess is we're sstill a week out from actual release, but don't quote me on it. Only wishful hoping at this point .
Nothing here in NC yet.
Ive tried the *#*#checkin#*#* also no go.
Anyone got it yet? I wish we can find the SBF so we can just flash it ourselves
will being rooted prevent me from getting the update?

If you have a custom ROM on your rooted device then most defiantly. I went back to the original stock using the 11 step process without a problem, but you will most probably have to wipe/factory data to get it to work.
I'm still waiting for the new update though
Root, etc.
Just got a Droid 2 Global from Assurion (brand new) as a replacement for a stolen Droid 2. Pure stock, never been rooted; no update. So those of you with no update don't need to panic over whether you ran Z4ROOT or not; the update is NOT yet here, at least on my phone (California) and it is pure as the driven snow.

This is the latest. Its rolling out today. slowly. I wish someone would just get the SBF and we can flash it.

I'm pretty sure it would be an update.zip file, not an sbf file, but all the same it would be nice if someone would just copy it to their pc before updating so we could all have it already.
