I have a g2x that is rooted. I put the weapons G2 2.5 rom on it. The phone some times says or displays in the notifications bar that I have some updates, should I use these updates?
Eddie
It's most likely Android Market updates, so yes.

What Baseband version are you running?
Menu -> Settings -> About phone
I received the same message a few minutes ago.
Firmware Version : 2.2
Baseband version: 1897UCJI6
Cognition 2.2Beta6
It's there but mine stopped half way through the update. Will have to wait until tomorrow to try again, unless someone knows where the update is downloaded to.
Maybe you can do the update via Kies software instead of waiting 24 hours?
I got the text too, I'm running cognition 2.3b3

what would be the most ideal FW?
I've gotten the same text twice now...
Running I1897UCJI6
Froyo 2.2
But when trying to do manual update it wouldn't let me...didn't say there was or wasn't an update. Might try mini kies later tonight.
Got the text again and im running jh7 2.1

if you just set your phone's time 24 hours ahead, you don't have to wait for 24 hours to recheck for any updates.
DON'T SEARCH FOR UPDATES WITH A ROOTED PHONE ESPECIALLY IF YOU'RE RUNNING 2.2!!!
Large men in black vans will come take you away.

Haha, I highly doubt that it matters to be quite honest.
Searching is one thing, installing would most definitely brick the phone.

Nevermind...I had my phone replaced a few days ago. I guess I never updated to JH7...

I can't find netflix on the market anymore. anyone else having this issue? I'm guessing this might be an isolated incident. I've had a couple market issues since flashing synergy 6/1 but I thought I had squashed them.

I'm pretty sure that it's due to it not working on the official Gingerbread release. I updated my wife's unrooted phone today, and Netflix stopped working. It would start the stream, but it would stop and then go back to the queue.
I just checked market and sure enough, its gone. Maybe good news is just around the corner for us who havent been able to run it.
I just called netflix their words were "Near Future" Which means yes they will fix sense 2.1

Very cool. Thanks for making that call. Thanks button mashed.
I wonder why they would take it off though. Why not just release an update when it's ready. Hmm. Oh well.

Because it would reduce call volume if people thought it was gone and new users wouldn't even know it existed.

I see. That makes sense. Makes me happy! The only draw back to this rom has been not having netflix. Hopefully that will be remedied soon.

After speaking with my Dad who didnt even know there was a Netflix App, decided to download it before it disappeared and the Market said that his EVO wasnt a supported phone. I am under the impression that Netflix dropped support for both 2.2 and 2.3 on the EVO until they can fix it for both.
hmmm i still have it in the market but heres a change
Currently Netflix playback is supported on the following phones:
• HTC Incredible with Android 2.2
• HTC Nexus One with Android 2.2, 2.3
• HTC G2 with Android 2.2
• Samsung Nexus S with Android 2.3
• Motorola Droid with Android 2.2
• LG Revolution with Android 2.2
• Casio G'zOne Commando C771 with Android 2.2

I noticed that, and trust your input. I'll never understand why some people just post stupid crap like this guy did. If I'd noticed it was his first post I wouldn't have bothered.
I have an older .apk for the NetFlix app and when I install it and open it, it tells me I HAVE to upgrade to continue, then searches the market and says requested item cannot be found, click OK and right back to the you must upgrade screen.. so it appears that the NetFlix app is gone completely for the Evo until the fix the 2.3 issue. Can anyone else confirm the same?
I noticed that too! This really sucks ! Now what am I going to do at work? Maybe its time to introduce ubuntu to the work place
why wouldn't it work on the new update? it works on cm7 and thats running 2.3.4 -.-

Have you tried running it recently (since the update?) Possibly if you were lucky enough to have the last version they had before they pulled it for the EVO then maybe it will still work for you, but the older version I have doesn't work.
I have the last version. When I tried playing anything it would load and say that netflix had not been activated on my device. Not that it worked to begin with, but that message is new to me.

Guys server side Netflix has pulled support for our phone until they fix it. It will not work on any version

So just to make sure were clear gb isn't available its right?
There is someone selling there infuse on craigslist who sent me a video that says android 2.3 they also scrolled through there app drawer in the video and no superuser was showing I'm assuming they just deleted superuser from there apps? Any thoughts?

it could be a rogers infuse, those came with gb
No I asked they said it updated last week

They're lying to you. They probably updated the kernel and don't feel like reverting it, so they're marketing it as an officially released and updated version.
Some home replacement launchers can hide the SuperUser app.
ask seller screenshot of "about phone" screen(where baseband,kernel and other info are displayed).
i just received the system update notification on my rooted stock ROM & was wondering would downloading it remove my root
Short answer - Don't do it. If you are rooted, trying to receive an actual update from HTC or T-Mobile is bad news and could break your phone.
Longer answer:
It's possible to do it, but you would have to do something particular to be able to do it.
Once you root your phone, you forego any future manufacturer updates. Bad news.
There are several threads on this around here, I suggest you read up on them for more information.
Get titanium backup.
Type in filters update.
Freeze updater x x x
Never worry about an update again. You can always defrost if you want too as well.

Hey everyone. Love the HtcOneS. My favorite phone so far. Had the original G1, then a G2X. The G2X was a face but when it got stolen I hot the One S.
Now my question is in regards to multitasking. Sometimes when I switch to another app it refreshes and I have to start over. This is a bummer because I play an online card game called shadow era. If I get a message pop up during a game and then go back to the game it drops connection and I lose the match. Any way to maintain connection while switching apps? It makes me feel like it is just a frequently used app tray and not true multitasking. Thanks in advance for your input!

Which rom are you on?
Did you receive the 4.0.4 OTA update? It solves the multitasking issue.

Yes, I suggest updating. It's one major update, that carries several improvements and bugfixes, as you can read in the dedicated threads.
Watch out if you use tethering or other application that use wifi with screen off, since this could have become buggy.
