Im getting the same message

can anyone confirm that using ASTRO File Manager to copy su from bin to xbin and deleting su from bin afterwards is a working method? I don't have root explorer but I can reach bin and su from Astro. This is the only thing holding me back

No, I think Astro is only for moving files around the SD card, where as your trying to move files around on the phone's internal storage.

Maybe the issue people are having is from the bootstrapper that koush made.

Of you who bootstrapped are you getting the 2.2 update on?

 

[MrDonBonJovi]

well if you goto the bin folder there is a logwrapper file which i think is from koush's recovery causing it not to install.

i do have his recovery loaded how would i unstall it?

I have it as well...

Also, how long should it take to boot into stock recovery? Mine takes forever.. like a minute.

Can this be done without root or no? Sorry, Im a noob

Don are you getting an error message when you try to update

if you goto koush's page for his recovery it says this:

Caveats:
This is not a *real* recovery. The way this recovery works is by hijacking portions of your boot process during system initialization and starting into recovery instead. So, if you hose your system *COMPLETELY* you will need to SBF. Specifically, if your logwrapper, logwrapper.bin, or hijack binary are missing from /system/bin, you will be screwed.

Are you talking about booting the phone up or booting into recovery mode?

It took awhile but it finally went to recovery, then I tried the update.zip and it didn't take. I tried to boot the phone normally, shut it down, and now I'm still hanging with the "!" and the little android guy trying to get into recovery.

Has anyone tried Koush's recovery?

Seno i do remember reading that but i was hoping that it wouldnt come to that

Could those of you who have succeeded possibly tell us step by step what you did? I'm pretty good with this stuff... i just don't know what im missing.
