Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi all, I m wondering if its possible for people with stock Nexus One to post here the rough time they receive the OTA and the region they are in?

to start with:

I was just told by a friend based in Beijing that OTA was pushed through a few hours ago.

Nothing on mine yet, based in UK.

Tried going into settings (and I think it's About phone after that) and checked for updates?

You can force the update without rooting or unlocking bootloader which I did in UK

I tried going into the about phone page, nothing there. How do i force it on stock version?

Download the file and put it in SD card root folder(named update.zip)

Turn Phone off

Turn back on while holding down trackball

go to Bootloader

go to Recovery

at warning screen press vol up and power

apply sdcard:update.zip

enjoy ;)

QR Code for file to download and rename to update.zip on sdcard root

Sounds good, and I assume it wont unlock the bootloader or root access if force update this way?

I think I will do the same, just keen to see how much delay is there for the UK support compare to US, and also how smoothly does the OTA update run on N1.

haha im the Beijing friend.

no it wont unlock the bootloader and invalidate you warrenty. This is the same way OTA will do to update your phone.

When the OTA was pushed to my phone, the system tell me the phone will restart to apply the updates, and it then booted in to the stock recovery mode.

However as i flashed the custom recovery, the digital signature wont pass.

If your're unrooted and unlocked, i guess the signature test will pass and you will update just fine.
