Ics soak test has begun!!!!!!!!

Freakin Mac doesn't want to run .exe's. Guess I'll have to borrow a friend's PC to undo the darn forever root.
\]

Don't need to use another computer to remove the forever root. Install & run "Voodoo OTA" first since you need to be root to allow this to keep root. Use something like Root Explorer, go to /system/bin and look for mount_ext3.sh. On mine there was a backup copy of the original file so I just renamed backup_ext3.sh to backup_ext3.sh.old and renamed the mount_ext3.sh.bak (or whatever it had been named) to mount_ext3.sh. If you don't have a copy of the original mount_ext3.sh then remove the lines at the end of the file:
chmod 4755 /system/bin/sh
chmod 4755 /system/xbin/sh
chmod 755 /system/app/Superuser.apk
BUT be very careful not to change anything else in the file or the update could still fail.

Hey Sam, Sorry I did not respond sooner. I ended up back in the hospital for a couple days. Seems 6 weeks ago I had a stroke! Wish my Dr had mentioned it. Anyways, the OTA came over the air so I figured nothing to loose and installed it. installed no problem. Has a few like quirks mouse does not work in webtop on my lapdock 100 but should settle down I think after couple days hopefully. If not I'll complain to Vrtizon. They know my voice. :)

Thank you for all your help, I hope your helping other idiots like me has calmed down for you.

Dave

Droid Fourm Users,

I will be posting News Every Friday "starting next week" about upcoming updates, roms, root methods, and apps and android phone releases. I will be on the DF news team maybe in the future. If you have any app(s) or roms that you want me to Feature on My YouTube Channel private message me. I will hopefully have a YouTube Channel Up and running by next week also.

Thanks,
DxL

Is this some type of a joke?

What? The fact that you have nothing better to do than make new accounts because your buddy Matt over at Moto forums won't return your messages? Dude..take your meds and stop posting crap that is bogus.

DxL, since our usernames are so similar, can you provide me with some exclusive, behind the scenes news early?
