This is where I am:
Im having a new problem now. I got as far as the downgrade last night, unrevoked forever, hboot 0.77, Firmware, 2.1update1, baseband 1.00.03.04.06, kernel, 2.6.29-cc1c2268, build number 1.22.605.0 CL161493 release-keys, software number 1.22.605.0, Browser WebKit3.1, PRI 1.28_008, PRL 40067, ERI Version 5
In my research last night doing this I would take the official OTA thru the phone via OTA. This did not happen. Also, from further reading today, some are saying Hboot 0.77 wont take the OTA via OTA... so...
At this point, I am beginning to think I could be in way over my head. Can someone tell me how to get my phone back to stock and at the most current update?
Thanks in advance.
Just a note. I returned both my wife's and my (work) phone to stock about a week ago. I have not yet recieved the update and she has. It's still being rolled out and (as far as I can tell from communication with VZW) could take up to a month to actually hit your phone.
I didn't even bother with my personal phone. CM6 goodness there.
Search the threads for an RUU that puts your software to 1.22.605.2 will probably have .79 hboot included. Try that. Or you can also search for a copy of the update.zip. But I believe you still need 1.22.605.2 to get that to work.

I never really kept track of the version numbers so I thought they were normal updates... But they started to happen suspiciously often so I decided to keep track of it this time.. Apparently my (rooted) EVO will not properly isntall 1.32.651.6 . It will just try to apply it, reboot, and then go back to 1.32.651.1 . Anyone else experiencing this?

Lol, don't be scared. It is a typical disclaimer.
Even if you do brick your phone, take it to Sprint and say the OTA bricked it.!!

Is that the full OTA 1.32.651.6 update or just the radio?

I believe Toast's root method (and therefore pretty much all of the roots/ROMS out there) already has the initial SD Card/Security OTA update applied

The link above is just the Radio image which was part of the OTA update.
Neither of Toast's PC36IMG.zip files have the OTA applied. They are pre release engineering and user debugging versions of the stock ROM which were used to unlock NAND and Root the device.
Pretty much all of the baked ROMs available for DL will already have the .6 OTA integrated. You can check and see by looking in Settings / About Phone / Software Information and look for Firmware Version 2.1-update 1 and Build Number 1.32.651.6 .....
If you want the stock ROM, rooted, Flipz released it a day or two after the OTA came out. You can find it here as well.
i believe my phone couldn't update from 2.1 to 2.2 because i used the unrevoked method of rooting. in order for me to get 2.2 i updated my phone with the pc36img.zip file and then rooted again with unrevoked.
Now when i'm trying update from 2.2 with the new 3.29.651.5 update, the phone will have the triangle with a exclamation point.
Any ideas? thanks
ok im confused, tried to search everywhere for this but have not found a straight answer...
i had my phone rooted but then decided to downgrade back to stock using PB31IMG.zip which restores the phone to prior May OTA.
Current Software Info:
FW: 2.1-update1
BB: 1.00.03.04.06
Build: 1.22.605.0 CL161493 release-keys
SW #: 1.22.605.0
my question is...
do i need to install the may OTA before i can receive the 'official' 2.2 OTA or am i already set to receiving it. PS: im not planning on doing the manual update, just want to know if im ok.
thanks.
A follow up question to Loading; There are comments around about the revision number for HBOOT, required for the OTA. HNOOT is not listed under the software display screen in Settings. Instead you need to power down and boot into HBOOT. You do this pressing Volume Down and Power, at the same time. In my case, I did receive the May 2.1 OTA. However, HBOOT reports I have version .77. Several scattered posts and threads say you need version .79. There is another thread running currently about how to update HBOOT. But the answer was to bump up to version .92. Not sure what version the 2.2 OTA requires. It might be helpful to know and/or confirm what exactly is required, at a minimum. Here is a post where a user upgraded to .79, but now says "revoked3 won't root my phone anymore."
I may need to change my user name to "craZy1" after reading through all these rooting posts.

no, i had to manually install the may ota then a couple hours later i finally received the 2.2 notice (might be coincidence but what the heck it worked)
link to may ota if you need it: https://android.clients.google.com/...22.605.2_1.22.605.0_release_sign.a33bc3bf.zip

This is probobly a silly question... but how do I get the May OTA applied without clockwork? I have S-OFF, and then downgraded back to stock but I never got an OTA pop up to update the May OTA...
I have not rooted my phone. Upgraded my phone to baseband 2.05.00.06.11 and have not received froyo update. I think I need to downgrade my baseband to be able to receive official update. I realize there are quite a few threads on how to downgrade, but I cannot figure which one I need to follow. Can someone please assist and idiot. Thanks in advance.
When you say you have the 2.05.00.06.11 radio and are not rooted, is it safe to assume you applied the July leak which included the 2.05 radio?
baseband - no froyo
That is correct. I didn't want to root my phone, but had read that this helped with some of the issues I was having with the phone. I didn't realize that this would keep me from receiving the froyo ota from verizon. Now I am trying to find a way to get my phone back to stock, or be able to get the verizon froyo update.
Theirs a YouTube video on it. I'm running the 2.05 radio too and that video helps me out. Just search YouTube for a user named
mejdam
His videos will show you the step by step instructions will show u how to downgrade back to the stock RUU.

So last night I got received notification for the OTA update, I have been wanting to go back to stock for a while so I used the downgrade method to unroot, I followed a video walked though the process, and everything went just like theres.
The phone booted up and works fine, but Now I am at
Firmware Version 2.1- update1
Baseband version: 1.00.03.04.06
Build number: 1.22.605.0 CL161493 release keys
My issue is the phone wont get a notification for the Froyo 2.2 OTA update, I am stock now.
I waited over night hoping that in the morning I would get notification for the OTA, still no luck.
So I downloaded the official 2.2 DInc Froyo update, and tried to apply it through recovery. It goes through the process part way then errors out...
Any ideas on what I need to do, All i want is stock froyo.
Search for the 2.2 RUU and use it.
Will the 2.2 RUU be stock and allow for me to get OTA updates?
I am not finding the DInc 2.2 RUU, I have tried the search
Not everyone will get the OTA at the same time.. Might not be your turn yet..
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
Okay!!! Yay, I successfully updated using the 2.2 RUU, it was smooth as can be. Thanks : )
Now, I am not seeing my OTA update that I was seeing last night? Any ideas why it wouldn't be there?
I was rooted with Unrevoked forever and running Caulkulins EVio 2.
Ran the unrevoked s-on tool from the How to Unroot the EVO in 2 STEPS thread.
Attempted to run the PC36IMG but it won't load as I get a notification stating that it is older than the 2.2 the phone came with.
I do now have S-On
Did full wipe and factory restore.
I am unable to update radio, Wimax or Kernel.
Downloaded the 2.3 update and it loads about 1/3 of the way and then hangs, giving me a triangle with a yellow exclamation point next to the little green android guy.
I'm thinking that perhaps I am not totally non rooted but I'm not convinced this shouldn't allow me to update from the 2.15.00.09.01 or allow me to replace the 2.6.32.15-ge2fb08e htc--kernel and 18-12#11
Build# is 3.29.651.5CL252548 Release Keys and Software Number 3.29.651.5
Any thoughts or help you could give me?
I guess I must be a problem with no answers?
For one, you don't need to unroot to flash radios.....
This I was aware of but as I am due for an upgrade in three weeks and I was trading the phone in at RS, it made sense to do so.
This still doesn't explain why I can't upgrade, why the radio flash doesn't take, etc

Since you are rootless, flash the 3.70.XX RUU and then run update. That should get all updated ...
Although why bother with a trade in?

Thanks for the RUU recommendation. I tracked down the original non rooted version and it solved all my problems
