Installing the OTA 2.1 file

[bkratzer83]

my questions is each ota some how coded for each individual phone to prevent us from installing such file in this manner i think it could be a vzw way of making sure we get the official version

I have no doubt it is working...but is it really the OTA? I don't want to reinstall everything and get it up and running, then get the update tonight and have to do it all over again.

Home + Power gets past the exclamation point!!

Someone asked previously, Home is the House button to the left of Menu, no feedback, hold it and press power.

what is your HBOOT version? Still 1.47?

 

[John58543]

so this process has only worked for 1.5ers? anyone successful with leak yet?

 

[blacknite]

arothrock, you deserve many thanks for the directions. worked like a charm!

 

[TDianna]

worked for me too!! POWER + HOME!!!

installing now!!

arothrock, please change your instructions or at least tell people to try volume up or home as volume up seems to work for some people, and home for others.

Did he change the instructions?

 

[mrshdavis]

make sure it's called: update.zip and in the top level directory of the sd card.

Go back and delete the .zip. It did that to me too, and after I just renamed it to update, it started working...currently deleting files...taking a long time...
