If you're running pure stock, you should still get stock updates, unlocked bootloader or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Constantine XVI Posted May 20, 2010 Report Share Posted May 20, 2010 will r14 work ? You won't get the OTA at all if you're not running an official build. Nothing stops you from applying the update on your own, but there's no magic "merge with MCR/CM" switch; so you'd have to run stock until MCR adapts to Froyo.

Currently I am running the Stock ROM with SuperBoot with Himem boot image, and Recovery 1.7 tool, will it work ?, thanks Edited May 20, 2010 by brosenz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest slyydrr Posted May 20, 2010 Report Share Posted May 20, 2010 Currently I am running the Stock ROM with SuperBoot with Himem boot image, and Recovery 1.7 tool, will it work ?, thanks No. Since you replaced the stock recover image with your own, the OTA update won't install. It will download but then nothing beyond that. You'll have to wait for it to be packaged up into and update.zip and then install it manually through your custom recovery image.

Thought you could just download it and rename the ROM update.zip and then update? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest willdenham Posted May 20, 2010 Report Share Posted May 20, 2010 Thought you could just download it and rename the ROM update.zip and then update? You can do that, but OP was asking about Over The Air updates which you can NOT get if you're bootloader is unlocked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will download but then nothing beyond that. You'll have to wait for it to be packaged up into and update.zip and then install it manually through your custom recovery image. Option 1: If I go back and install just the Stock Recovery image will work ?, or I have to install the Stock Boot image as well ?, I would like to keep the Boot image becasue of the HIMEM option activated. Option 2: If, when I will get the OTA Download option (I am running Stock ROM, so I should get it later today) I do save it to the SD card, and then rename it as Update.zip, boot with the Recovery 1.7 tool and install/update from there, the update will work ?

You will never, ever, ever, ever get an OTA now that your bootloader is unlocked... UNLESS someone in the future finds out a way to return the bootloader to locked. This is currently not possible at the moment with the Nexus One, and there isn't enough interest out there to really do it. It does not matter what ROM you are running, it is all about the unlocked bootloader. Now, normally ( and sometimes even BEFORE ) shortly after OTA updates come out, someone will share the update.zip with the community. You just place that on your SD Card and you get the update.

After I installed back the Stock ROM on my unlocked Nexus One, I got (within the next 15 min) and OTA update for 2.1-Update 1, and worked fine, so why I shouldn't get the OTA for 2.2 ?

So wrong. The only thing that matters if that you have an official rom on the device. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest slyydrr Posted May 21, 2010 Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 So wrong. The only thing that matters if that you have an official rom on the device. It's not related to the bootloader being unlocked, but rather that you have the official ROM and the original recovery image, correct? I'm pretty sure that having the official ROM with a customer recovery image will allow you to get the OTA update, but not actually install it.

Guest joelee Posted May 21, 2010 Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 Here is the first Froyo ROM I've found: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=685488 Be warned, this ROM is NOT for the lighthearted. I would rather wait for Paul to get Froyo on MCR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WRONG!! Recovery image is the thing! So wrong. The only thing that matters if that you have an official rom on the device. WRONG again! If you have a stock rom, original one, but not original recovery image, you will get OTA, but it won't install. You will get an error. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
