[Q] Question about updating to 2.34

OK I have a Rogers Play. I flashed my Rogers Play to stock UK 2.32 to get root because i lost it after i updated to 2.3. So then i did the over the phone update and i had 2.3. now it's asking me to update to 2.4. If i update to 2.4 would I be loosing the UK version of the firmware and going back to Rogers firmware?

If your on the UK firmware you'll still be on UK firmware after the ota update. I'm on Rogers too but I haven't been on their firmware pretty much since I bought it when it came out they too slow with updates. And now I've unlocked my bootloader so I don't ever worry about not having root

did you use Flashtool? Does UK version work on Rogers Play perfectly (differences between US-r800a and UK-r800i versions)?

putting the software for ubnlocked fire phone on att version

has anyone had any sucess on installing the unlocked software on the at&t version if it too is unlocked? or are there hardware differences that make this not possible

is there software to unlock fire phone?
best regards,

I ran the unlocked version on my ATT version without any issues. Only difference is the unlocked version doesn't install the MyATT app.

Installing GSM Unlocked Firmware on AT&T Fire Phone

Hi,
I bought an AT&T Fire Phone with unlocking code recently on Ebay deals. The unlock code worked perfectly and I am able to use the phone on other GSM networks without any issues
However, I am not from US and so I don't use AT&T services/bloatware etc. After reading some posts online I understand that Amazon also sells the same phone as an unlocked GSM version. So, I want to know if it is possible to flash the Unlocked GSM Version firmware on my AT&T Fire Phone to remove all the AT&T carrier stuff ? If it is possible, can you guide me with the steps?
Also,
1) Will I lose my "Unlocked" status if I flash the Unlocked GSM firmware?
2) Will I get all future OTAs normally if I flash the Unlocked GSM Firmware?
3) Anything else I will lose by changing the default Fire OS Firmware that came with my phone?
My Fire Phone Details -
Memory - 32 GB
Carrier - AT&T (but unlocked with the seller provided code to use it on any GSM provider)
It will be very helpful if someone can help me with these questions
Thank you very much

This info is scattered throughout the forum. They really should post a sticky and keep it updated.
It is safe to go from the AT&T to the Amazon OS. I did it to mine. The hardware is identical, only the software differs slightly. The latest AT&T version is 4.6.4. The latest Amazon version is 4.6.3. Going from one to the other is NOT considered a downgrade. Amazon has two different software paths and did something funky with the version numbers there. They both have the latest stagefright patches. 4.6.3 is currently the preferred version because it works best with Google Play services.
Here are the instructions on how to install 4.6.3:

If you have trouble with the ADB drivers, look on page 2 of that thread.
To answer your questions directly:
Unlocked status should not be affected
You will get future OTA updates through the Amazon software path (no need to worry about future AT&T bloatware)
You lose AT&T bloatware
