Root OTA With Deodex?

[Droid Commando]

i just tried this and it still didn't work. i too was rooted with 928's theme. now i'm back to my stock rooted. I just restored to my backup i made after i rooted before i themed...everything i've tried has failed,

no ota (obviously since they pulled it)
using update.zip alone didn't work
flashing 928's back to stock odexed , then trying update.zip failed
restoring to my stock 2.2 rooted backup and then trying update.zip failed.

every time i have tried the update.zip it aborts the installation. The only thing i haven't tried is sbf'ing to 2.2 , factory reset, then try the update.zip. I have backups of my apps using titanium pro but honestly i don't need 2.2.1 that bad. So i guess i'm just going to wait till they put it back live and try it ota.

When the OTA becomes officially available, it will most likely fail for you as well. Are the stock apps like CityID, VZNavigator, etc, etc. appearing in your app drawer? If they are not, that's probably why this is failing.

To get the OTA to work (or the leak for that matter)...I also had to re-odex, don't really know why or what was missing, but it's what worked. I used 928's.

this is what i had to do. i am rooted and deodexed with the revo theme on stock rom by the way. first, i tried the ota and it kept failing even though i restored all the bloatware. so i figured it must be something i changed a while back and had no way of restoring. so i ended up getting the 2.2 sbf, loaded it up, and the ota worked fine. i didnt even have to do a factory reset so all of my stuff is still on my phone. rerooted with z4 root and all is good. now i just have to theme it and ill be golden.
