I recieved my notice but haven't downloaded it yet. Waiting for the best advice weither I should or not

I'm guessing this is the beginning of it?
Wifi doesn't need to be on, does it? Or will it just take a while with 3G(barely)
EDIT: Whoop, nevermind, it changed now and says the update is available. I'm probably just gonna go ahead and do it, I'm sure someone will find a way around it later on if Froyo disappoints.

I know it's not Froyo, I'm saying WHEN Froyo does come, if it is not as good as I hope THEN I will root and hopefully people will have worked around this update.

Anyway to stop this from automatically downloading to your device?

i used the CR_OTA rom to keep my root, but wife did get the notification the other night, she is using it and so far there has been no problems at all only one thing we found out is
she cant send MMS through third part apps(Handcent) it only works through stock Messenger

Thank you for that heads up, I guess I will be rooting my mytouch now. I need to use a ROM that is still stock. I personally like Sense and I'm not ready to be rid off it.

My phone was downloading it, but when I noticed that it was, I killed the process! I heard it prevents root, so I wasn't particular find of that.

Warning: This should only be used on HTC G2 Vision. Using this on Desire Z could brick your phone.
Here shipment ROM for Vision

Enjoy!
SWWWWWWWWWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEETTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
uuhh sorry, enlighten me here please. what good does this bring?
lol there isn't even root on g2 et or custom recover lol
Is there a way to flash this on AVD?
we can take a look around the ROM and see what is up as well as look into breaking it before the phone is released. remember that the aria was rooted days before it was actually released as a phone, having the build can get us a head start on the hacking process. thank you for posting

hahah hopfully he doesnt mean a my touch.
Thats the one thing i really hate about the g2 is the name people know the my touch as the g2 and its just confusing the hell out of people.
either way i hope it the g2 is rooted by the time i get it.
@limestar
if you got a test g2 post up pics and some info like the /system size ect..
The tmo rom is very vanilla not the same as thr rom that cam on my g2. Guessing tmo did not want sense?

What you mean different from your G2, if you have one why have you not provided a sys dump or any info, if not then stop trolling that you have one as that is not helpful
Kthnx

Yeah, I agree, tubaking. He's full of crap. He's saying the rom is different and talking about sense ui. We all know that it has no trace of sense at all. Either he has a desire z or is just trolling. He's definately not one of tmobile employees who actually got a G2 tester model. He sounds like a 13 year old kid trying to screw with people on the internet...
I got no problems with posting pics of the phone tomorrow when i am back at work and yes it is a desire z. Same as g2 because the g2 t-mo rom loaded fine once i renamed the zip.

Not quite the same... Desire Z has different radio bands and 1.5 GB vice 4 GB storage on the G2.

Lol! I thought thats what it was. I wasn't quite sure if you were a troll or just a semi-confused desire z owner. My apologies. So... it did flash, huh? Wow, I knew they were close but didn't think you could use each others roms. Thats good to know! What works or what doesn't work? You mind testing it out for us? I doubt we want pics but would like a report on what doesn't work after flashing a G2 rom....
So here is the proof. Both hardware versions in the uk anyway were called vision and can put either rom on. This hardware had Desire Z sw on it when i got it.

Stock ROM anybody...

So I was wondering, does anybody have the stock ROM, is it Odin, or in normal update.zip format, I'm wanting to port it, seeing as how it have an HVGA display (Right?)

So, all I can find is where Samsung released the source code. It's available at:
http://opensource.samsung.com/
Click on the Mobile tab and look for SCH-i400 vzw.
I'm not a dev myself, so I'm not sure how much that will help. It's a .zip, but I'm not sure if it would be flashable.

The Samsung Continuum doesn't have an HVGA screen. It has a WVGA screen, just like all the other Galaxy S phones.

I just checked the whole file over, and from what I know of ROM making, this is not a ROM. It looks more like a kit to start, but don't quote me on that. I only have a very very limited knowledge, and that was from when I had a Droid1.

That's what I thought, but it'll be the place to start for any devs who want to jump on this grenade.
I just figured since the screen was 3.4 inches that it was HVGA

Questions about CyanogenMod

I am thinking about rooting my slide because I am fed up of waiting for tmobiles slow a**, but I have two question that I would like to know.
1.Can you still use swype??
2.are you still able to use flash lite since there's no adobe 10.1 for us yet??
Thanks in advance to all the people that take the time to answer my questions

You can install swype to cm but it isn't installed by default. There's a thread in this section about getting it installed actually. As for flash, I don't think that will work, no. I have never actually tried it, but theoretically, you might be able to download CR_Mod and extract HTC_Flash.apk from /system/app to say, your downloads folder, then adb push that file to /system/app after you root in clockwork recovery (remember to mount /system in the partitions menu in clockwork). Post back if you need me to explain more about that, and I will, I'm just using my phone so it'd be a bit hard on my thumbs to type the long explanation haha

Well, you might be able to pull htcflash/flash light from the stock ROM and use that, but I'm pretty sure that's a part of webkit, and I doubt that it would work on a different browser, so yeah probably not.

Is there a version of the stock rom...

Is there a version of the stock rom without all the unnecessary apps that come preinstalled on the phone?
Sent from my T-Mobile myTouch 3G Slide using XDA App
dont think so, but doesnt really matter. you can delete them easily by just opening the zip and deleting what you dont want and then flashing the rom. be careful, sense roms have apps that rely on each other and deleting one could break a function. its trial and error to see what can be taken out and what needs to stay. just play with it
I thought that's kinda what this was?

Also, once I install a rom and want to get rid of bloat that I don't use, I just use root explorer to delete what I don't use........but as said above, be careful what you delete, because certain things in any rom depend on each other.
