Yay! Another tool! Thanks jntdroid!

Hmmm, I thought I heard "Duelin' Banjos" there for a minute...

Worth mentioning, notice this OTA release of FRG22D also includes the baseband. That tells us a lot.

Very very interesting.

Wow, thanks for taking the time to test this theory and to post everything, this is pretty groundbreaking news...

Myself and a few others have been wondering if there would be a full FRG22D OTA file, as we couldn't imagine Verizon would forever push out two OTA files to those phones not running Froyo, just to get them up to FRG22D.

I noticed a lot of people reporting the FRG22D OTA hitting their phones tonight, so I flashed back to 2.0.1 to see. As soon as I activated, it began downloading the FRG22D update, but the full file (77+mb), not just the patch. I thought some people might find it useful. This should eliminate the need for updating to FRG01B, and then using the 1.6mb FRG22D patch, as this should take you from any previous stock OS to FRG22D.

First, below is the link. Second are screenshots just to show what I was looking at and that it is not the FRG01B file.

as well as the stock recovery

Yup...

Aside from helping people get their stock phones fully updated, this full FRG22D release will probably become the base for a bunch of new ROMs.

Thanks again jntdroid, this is really great news for the whole Droid1 community!!!

I'm still learning, but I believe most "source" roms sync up with AOSP regularly anyway, and the latest ones (released since FRG22D) are probably synced up with a later "source" than FRG22D already anyway. But like I said, I'm still learning...

 

[dwoid]

Me too about learning ...

I had thought that at least a few devs were building on top of stock rooted leaks and OTAs, just adding themes, shortcuts and other conveniences... And that in contrast, the true "source" ROMs were compiled by the Devs from original Google source code. But I might be wrong on that.

Personally, I'd prefer a ROM based on a rooted leak or OTA because it's largely pre-tested by the factory and is bound to be more stable. But that's just my ROM preference. Of them all, I prefer OTAs like this release you've just made available that are subsequently rooted.

Thanks again, I'm jazzed!!!

However... when I hold the phone and tip it to landscape, the desktop will not reorient. If I load an app (browser, settings, whatever) and tip it to landscape, it reorients fine. If I put it in the cradle while it's displaying my desktop, it reorients fine... weird...

That's normal (unfortunately). While on the home screen, if you open the keyboard it will go landscape, but otherwise stays portrait.

One alternative is to use a different launcher. ADW (on the Market) and others support auto-orientation.

Thanks. I did the manual update to FRG01B (79mb version). Does this mean I can use that zip file to upgrade to FRG22B?

FRG22D, and yes. And I definitely recommend it over just doing the patch. It's cleared up a few bugs for me.

hahah... I guess I never noticed that before! Thanks

When you get a chance, can you let us know what those bugs were? It might help others who are experiencing the same thing.

Thanks!

Sorry, that's what I meant.

I've used the full install and it seemed to go well. In fact, I didn't get the same error message when I installed the full FRG01B. It now says I have FRG22D.

As for Flash in the Market, how do I search for it? Just "Flash" or what? I get a lot of apps coming up, but how can I zero in on that?

Search "adobe flash".

did you guys wipe cache partition or anything before applying this update?
