DarkSlide V4 - .340 ROM - Style, Quadrant, Linpack Champ

Right now im still on 2.3.15. It's been a while since i've been able to check the boards and my how much things change in such short time. Is there a easy way i can get to 2.3.32 so i can get this rom installed?

Thanx

Welcome back from being out of the loop :)

Are you stock 2.3.15? If so, just root, install Bootstrap for DX so you can make a nandroid backup and then install

either Blurred or Blurless version of Darkslide v4.2. If you have made modifications or had a ROM(s)

installed your best bet would be to sbf the 2.3.15 version, grab the 2.3.340 OTA and then re-root and then

install Darkslide v4.2. And if you don't know what to do JMTownsend will PM you when he gets a chance

and get you on your way to happiness :)

Easiest way to SBF the 2.3.15 version? I've never had to SBF before so i could use some help with that please.
 
I see xkape and bgill have done the new version but, I am unsure if ecsnead has yet. I'll hit him up on Gtalk and ask :)

DroidForums Junkie!!

Well I saw that Huskerkate had the black Winamp. So I went to the link you provided, grabbed apk, moved it

to sdcard, installed and set permissions. Worked like a champ. So, I'm thinking anything app related will work just

fine because it hasn't been built off any certain version of anything. It's just a themed app. In theory dancedroid

Have you ever installed a ROM? Have you ever rooted and removed bloatware? These are a few thing's I

need to know in order to see where your at knowledge wise. I have only sbf'd once myself, never

messed up my phone, knock on wood. So I personally wouldn't feel comfortable walking you through that.

JMT might on the other hand. But if you are running stock 2.3.15 an sbf won't be needed. What an sbf

does is flash your system with all the original files that Motorola originally provided you with. This is done if

you have made any changes to your phone that can't be easily reversed. If you haven't, then there are no

worries.

I've installed many ROM's for both the Moto Droid and Droid X. Right now I'm rooted and running a ROM.

Well then that makes it a little easier but you will have to wait till JMTownsend pops his head in and

PM's you with some instructions. We are still gonna have to get you up to date bootloader wise. I'm

guessing your bootloader is 30.03...?

Power the phone off. Then hold your volume down key, camera key and power key at the same time. This will bring you to your bootloader screen. After you press them for a couple seconds let off. It's just a black screen with hardly anything on it. It should say at the top 30.03 or 30.04. To back out hit the power button. And then long press power button to boot up like normal.

Lol, like you already :) You'll be fine. We'll get you set up after a while. Hold tight.

Does Darkslide sync Facebook Photos with the AOSP messaging app yet? I flashed it a while back and it didn't and it was a deal breaker for me.. but I'd be very interested in doing a .sbf and an install if it does now.

You're referring to the AOSP text messaging app, right? Neither the aosp or the blur text messaging apps will sync the facebook photos...the only one I know that does is Handcent...

Thanks for mentioning that andy. Don't know why I keep spacing that file.
