Thanks for clearing that part up, but I'm still confused as to which file to use for the update.zip. There are 2 from Peter Alfonso's website that are "Stock System Files" labeled as FRG01B and FRG22 (Odexed and DeOdexed), and there are 2 listed under OTA updates labeled as FRG01B (from ESE81 and Master OTA). Which one should I use?
Thanks again!
Master is the better one, as it does not care what you ahve on your phone before, and so you can skip the whole RSDLite step if you are already on
any pre-2.2 ROM.
Which post number? You have a bunch on this thread and I want to find the right one.
I really appreciate it. I'm dying for some froyo. Can't keep hitting system update and seeing the God awful Your system is currently up to date. Lying ass phone.
Not a post, a
thread - my apologies, I thought I had linked it.

Hello...I was excited to see your posting and turned my bar scanner on immediately...problem is I couldn't find the downloads afterwards...they are still in the bar code reader of camera...can't figure out how to retrieve them?

I assume you used browser to get the files? In that case, look in the
\download folder on the SDCard, or the download folder of your browser if you use a different browser.
I used to instructions for the phone, and it works! The only thing, is it still takes a moment to load the icons on the home screens. Also, pretty much everything is slow, or unresponsive. Almost everything has had to force close so far. I'm hoping another soft reset, or battery pull will help.
After two soft resets, and a battery pull, things are a bit better, but almost all my ringtones, and notification tones are gone. Or at least, not selectable for ringtone, or notification tone...
Do a factory reset and then let is reinstall all your apps, and manually redo your settings. Trust me - even though this is an 'update' enough has changed in the OS that reinstalling is a much better way to go.

I followed the instructions and downloaded the three items to revert back to stock 2.1. The only problem is the device STILL boots into sprecovery and rsdlite is not recognizing it. I'm ready to reset it but feel like it may mess it up if I press start with no phone recognized in rsdlite.
You should not be booting into
recovery you should be booting into the
bootloader - you're to press
the up direction on the D-Pad not X. You should get a black screen with white text on it, somewhere saying Bootloader, and after you connect the USB cable the Interface section changes to the word USB....
Anyone got an idea how to have rsdlite recognize my phone if I'm unable to get to recovery mode because of sprecovery? All I need to do is flash 2.1 and then load froyo.
sooooo close.
Your phone has to be in the bootloader. You have to have the USB Cable select.
Once you see the phone listed as a device in the section below, click it - that is how you select the device.
This step took me a good 20 minutes the first time
I tried it b/c I didn't know what to do next, either.
I have seen this question posed, but do not remember seeing an answer. If the manual update is the official, will we receive notification of any updates if we did the manual installation? Great instructions by the way. I have had few problems to speak of that a battery pull early on did not rectify. I would agree that Pandora is lacking in quality now. Also had a problem first time I used the camera that mucked up the entire phone until I did a battery pull. Otherwise seems pretty good. Thanks to anyone who can answer my question on this. Personally I love chrome to phone. Do not like the stock dock and went back to Launcher Pro.
Any future updates, yes.
I thought I had this all figured out and now after reading the past couple of pages I am totally confused.
I thought that if we downloaded the DEODEXED version FRG22 we could install it the same way as FRG01B as long as we are not rooted???
I have downloaded the 74.7MB file, but have yet to install...better to wait for a better version?
I'm beginning to think that forcing FRG01B was not a good idea. Anyone that has FRG22 running into issues?
Yes, you can. The Guide that Trident posted at the beginning works - except you already have to be running 2.2 in order to do it.
Does Flash 10.1 come with the manual download of 2.2?
Also after downloading Froyo how can you tell if you have Flash?
You do
notget Flash
with this ROM. You have to manually download it because it is still in beta (Beta 3 as of right now). Here is a link to a thread that has the info you need:

Also, please read the entire thread, as this questions has been answered at least 3 times (twice by me alone).
