Uhm.
I responded in the thread you opened here.
The thread came to mind, and then I noticed the OP is the same... What gives? Creating multiple threads like this really dilutes the community effort.

If I root my MyTouch and run the stock ROM that is posted here about 40 mb will I still get the ota updates then since the spl and recovery will be different.
id like to know this as well, but also for us who are running custom ROMS such as Cyanogens ROM
will we still get OTA updates?
Sorry everyone this was a really dumb question especially for me as I already know that answer. The MyTouch once is rooted will NOT get OTA updates since the keys will not match at all. You will not get any updates on the stock rom and espcially not on a modified firmware version

well that stinks, how will we update our phones when new updates to the Android OS come out? manually update/flash the ROMS again?
it does not "stink" not getting otas keeps us from getting our root taken away and our handsets re-lockdown'd.
hang out here and when an ota comes out, it gets modded and available for update.
HAHA, man what are those guys doing in this forum?
you got me.....haha........

That's the reason/joy for root...
Start asking your questions in the right sub-forum (Q&A) (Theme) or even in (General), or i will be forced to ban you for 3 days or till you learn.
Thanks

Hello All;
I am new to the smartphone world and I recently rooted my TB with a Stock Rom; now that I am rooted how would I maintain an up to date phone?
Is there a way to sign up for new update notifications from this site, or do I need to keep up with blogs, chats, and the internet on my own?
Note: I have had two questions that I posted on this site and both of them have been answered/very useful.
Thank you all in advance!
I may be completely mistaken but I believe it is up to you to watcth the forums and find a blog to follow.
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
Up to date according to Verizon or the developers here? XDA is pretty much bleeding edge in terms of radios and operating system updates.
Ok, this what I need to know. Thanks!
Ok, thanks. I just dont want to fall behind the ROM race.

Now that your rooted if you want to remain on a rooted stock rom, just wait til you see a blog on here about a new thunderbolt update (MR2 for example)
Then give it a day or 2 for someone to release the update in a rooted version, in a thread in the thunderbolt development section that looks like this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1160374
[ROM] Official 1.70.605.0 MR2 OTA Deodexed Rooted Busybox
which is for rooted users follow the directions on flashing using cwm and then flashing the new radio file if there is one, through hboot.
you will then maintain root while still getting the latest ota's.

Thank you for taking the time to explain to me the process; direct me and I will take it from there.
Unfortunately you're going to see a number of old threads for ROMs with dead links. Most of what you're going to need is here. The newest radio isn't, that I've seen. And I'm not sure there's any gingerbread builds based on the newest leak are here either. If I'm wrong, someone correct me. If you find a locked ROM thread, just Google the name.
Glad you've joined the community and we hope to be as helpful as possible.
Can you please tell me.. What's the latest update for HTC Desire S? I mean like the Official one.. Is it ICS 4.0+ ?
Since I have totally messed my phone up by rooting, unrooting, downgrading, upgrading, installing custom ROMs over one another - I didn't do it properly. I have no idea how to check the what's the latest update.
Oh another question, according to what I've told you above, does this mean my phone is like dead now?
It kept freezing and starting itself many times - is this because of the ROM or is it because of the phone? The phone is very very slow and it lags a lot lol.
Thank you in advance!
The latest update was gingerbread. But I suggest you trying to flash different rom rather than reverting back.

Just got my a700 today and enjoy immediately got a notification that the JB update was available. What I would like to know from some of the more knowledgeable members (and almost everyone is more knowledgeable than me) is should I go ahead and install the Acer JB update or should I root, unlock the bootloader and install a custom rom? I. have read that because Acer has not released a certain type of code, that with the stock JB update I will not be able. to root or unlock the bootloader.

I have flashed my a700 to Pawitp's latest CM10 Nightly build. the screen reaction is better than the stock one. And all the stock apps are removed. Nice!! But once my a700 suddenly rebooted, maybe the conflict of apps. All in all i will suggest flashing to the CM10. Sorry for my poor English.
Stock JB ROOT or CM10 ??
Hi,
sorry if I post here but I can't post in Android Development forum.
I could not resist JB OTA when I turned on for the first time my tablet
Now, can I root OTA firmware??!
I unlocked the bootloader and I tried flash CWM recovery, unlock work, but CWM didn't work :/
Can I now flash CM10? How? (back to ICS?)
Sorry for asking too many questions and my poor english
Thanks

Lorenzo

Hey,
Your CWM doesn't work, as it's for the ICS Bootloader. They (Germans) have a CWM for JB, but.... due to issues in the past with some early CWM's, a lot are a little afraid to use it. I haven't seen a lot of problems on the German site, so maybe it is ok. I have it installed on my 701, but haven't had the need to use it yet.
As with root, wait another day or so, and my Mate Civato will finish the modded boot.img for the JB 700, so you guys won't have to do a mess of things.
Will be a simple root.
