Does anyone have the leaked update file so I can download without having a data connection on my cell phone? I had to get the leaked update for my Asus but now they have the official on their site. Hoping someone has the att update file so I can do the same.

Here it is as it showed up in my /sdcard/Download/ directory, but I don't know how you can force it to update without going through the actual OTA process.

No. It is an edify type update that contains a PD98IMG type update inside (called firmware.zip).
Even though it is an edify type update, it won't install from recovery unless you hack out some of the ASSERT checks (since recovery doesn't have all the getprop values that a running system has).
Would it be possible to pull the information from the update part, and convert it to a hbkot update.
Just curious, if we were able to, id post it in the guide for easy reference.

How do you put the Inspire 4G into recovery mode? My Asus I can hold down the volume down key and power button to get a specific menu my Inspire doesn't.

You're doing it wrong somehow then because that is exactly how you do it on the Inspire. Make sure fastboot is off in the settings though (Settings->power->fast boot).

Not really. This update contains a number of "patch" files that use a method of updating files in-place by applying a patch that just replaces the parts of the file that changed. It's like a diff file is for text files, but it's binary. The only way I know of to apply these is through edify commands (or manually patching them on a PC first with bsdiff, see: http://linux.die.net/man/1/bsdiff).
I believe my phone may have been previously updated. What information lets you know it has?
Here is phone's information:

I recently rooted my Inspire. Today there was a WIFI update available and when I went to run the update the screen blacked out with an exlclamation mark. Is this because of the root that the phone will not take the update? Or is that the update process?
Thanks
Is the update from your service provider or from the people that created the ROM? If it's from your provider I would not even try to run the update just wait for an updated version of your rom to come out.
Thanks!
Kind of what I was thinking but being new to the device I thought I would ask.
Thanks again!
This is just to enable better speeds but all the ROMs already enable that.

Actually, its likely the side loading update, which most Roms also have. The speed update was weeks ago...

The OTA update is a combination of a patch pack and some new firmware for the radio and hboot. The first phase is applying the patch pack. For this to work, you need a pretty much stock ROM. If you're rooted, you likely have a few files that will be different and the patch will fail. It also checks the CID and aborts if you're not using stock (ie you used gfree to "open" your SIM, etc.). The firmware will only install after the patching process has completed successfully.
If you are rooted, then your best bet is to just use ATTN1's package that contains all the patched files and firmwares. You can find it here:

Guys, running whitehaeks' miui n doenloaded getril from market. It is telling me ril mismatch baseband (jul 15), it is telling me to update to v21e from v20c. Should i do it?? What are the benefits?? Plz advise.thx

No real benefits but If you want to go for it I believe that apply is a load of bull

The RIL file is a lib file called "lge-ril.so". It is built to be matched to the baseband code. Usually the commands are the same so there should be no issues. But if you want to be sure go ahead and let the program change it. Even if it screws you up you can just restore in CWM. Make a backup of your current rom first.

Please could someone tell me the command prompt for terminal emulator to check your firmware ? To see what firmware a device is running ? Thank you in advance!

Try the command getprop it will display a lot of info about your device, look for a line called ro.build.display.id, should show your ROM name.

Wow, I finally feel like I'm getting somewhere (I am an accursed Newb)...
ro.build.display.id is ROM NAME?
Here's mine: [ro.build.display.id]: [nuclear_708h9-eng 4.0.4 IMM76D 20120808 test-keys]
This is also the "build number" I can get from settings>about tablet.
The entire thing is the ROM name?
Is this where I learn the name of the ROM & the name of the firmware flashed on it are 2 different things?
Is there a command that will display the name & version of firmware factory-flashed or currently flashed to the ROM?
This is an Allwinner (A13) 2G tablet (ICS 4.0.4). I got it as a gift without the packaging. I've sent email inquiries to AllWinner & AllWinnerTech - maybe I'll get lucky. Meanwhile I'm just stuck on the belief that there must be a way to make this device "tell on itself" - I merely need to find out what it is.
Friend says he tried to root his g2x, now it's running 2.2.2 (which is a verison of andriod i'm not familiar with) and he has no signal and is unable to connect to any wireless network.
Also, when i search for networks, it pops up with both tmobile and att, but, as far as i know, the phone is not network unlocked.
Any ideas or suggestions?
Is he running a p990 rom on a p999 or vise versa? That would cause some issues...
Pin it to Win it.
I know very little about this phone, what kernel and build should it be running stock?
Sent from my HTC VLE_U using xda app-developers app
He just has to make sure he's running the from for the right phone. If he's running a 2x rom on a g2x that can cause problems. Also might be a baseband issue? Not sure on that one as I never even bothered with 2.2.2 or don't know if they have 2.2.2 roms lol
Sent from my LG-P999
Does his phone say T-Mobile on the top?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app
yes it's a tmobile lg p999, but i'm not sure which rom he's running. from the research i've done, it looks like his baseband has been changed from what it was running stock. but i'm not entirely sure how to reset the baseband, he already did a factory reset, but the baseband remains altered. are there any other threads where i can find out how to reset the baseband?

Please go to Settings > About Phone and report back the following for us:

Baseband Version
ROM version (mine is third from bottom, says CyanogenMod Version and then the build info under it)
If this is too confusing I can send a picture or the settings screen.

That baseband is the March 2012 baseband. He needs to have 2.3.4 or another rom that supports the new baseband. Try loading up the newest cm7 and see what happens.

OTA - over the air. That's a way of getting updates that come officially.
You can check for it under settings > about phone > software update.
It will ask you to download it ( will be around 300mb). Download it and say apply. It will reboot, do some crazy stuff and update the phone to ics. No data will be lost. Make sure you do it with a good amount of battery left.

Find the right file for your phone / region from this thread And flash it via RSD. Are you sure it isn't att? (Does it have the att logo on the body?) Cuz there are different files for that.
Instructions about RSD in this thread.

You should flash the correct files according to your region/phone . You shouldn't flash any other file.
so there's no way for me to upgrade to ics at all?

Here is where all the FXZ files are, and from what it looks like on this site, there is no ICS update for the LATM retail release:
http://sbf.droid-developers.org/edison/list.php
That being the case, there is really not much you can do, you can try one of the other non-att firmwares, but I am guessing that might be a bad idea, as it may hardbrick your phone, as we have seen that with the AT&T branded USA phones, when trying to flash non-supported firmware.
Sorry to say it, but none on of the latin america phones appear to have support for firmware after 2.3.6.
