[Q] How do I upgrade to 2.2 from 2.1 update 1 non-rooted? - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just unrooted my wife's rooted 2.1 update 1 Droid Incredible. I would like to get her up to 2.2 stock. Where can I get the OTA and how do I install it? Thanks.

Look around in the development section. Tons of modded roms and stock.

This link http://db.tt/hArqkSU is the august 2.2 leak. Install it via the typical "update.zip" method. It's the rooted 2.2 stock rom that was leaked in august.
I believe somewhere in xda the very recent leaked stock rom is available.

Official 2.2 rom?

Hey guys,
I'm using desire with os 2.1 and know that 2.2 is releases in europe already. How do I flash to the official 2.2 rom? I do not want to try other cooked roms.
Thanks!

I got my 2.2 update file here http://hotfile.com/dl/58947725/9565...8-1.21.405.2_release4dua3bcrut4wrv30.zip.html
Is there not an official RUU for 2.2 yet?
Personally I'd think very carefully before flashing the official rom. Prepare yourself for things not working as well as 2.1.
Rumour has it that HTC is already preparing a patch. IMO I wouldn't do it as there is no going back. Much better rooting and flashing the official OTA rooted version so you can have a play. If you take a nandroid backup before you flash you can then very easily restore the 2.1 rom after you are disgusted with all the broken stuff
Equally flash a custom rom that applies fixes to the broken bits and be happy

I hope the rumors true.
Thats the only reason im looking at a 2.2 RUU.
My 2.1 unbranded OTA'd to 2.2, and handfree over BT is broke, HTC Music app crashes when the Navigation app speaks, and a few other minor bugs here and there...was hoping that a 2.2 RUU would fix all that, that it was a broken install....?
I see. So in that case, a cooked rom of 2.2 will work better in that sense?
my 2.2 works perfect but i dont use Bluetooth as I prefer points than to wear one of the gay little headsets lol

Can I get stock Froyo on Telus Desire ??

Can I get stock Froyo rom on Telus Desire ?
I have already rooted 2.1 that's on it, if that makes a difference.
I have no interest in running a custom rom since the stock (2.2) one has everything I need...
I'm also wondering the same thing actually.
I've been looking into upgrading to this ROM, since it's claimed to be 'stock':
[ROM] Rooted Official HTC Android 2.2 (FroYo) ROM [Market issue fixed]
It won't let me post a link, but its in the Desire Android Development page

I answered my own question.
Modaco (where I'm also premium) has more information on the subject... I rooted a week or so ago and modaco has the stock Froyo with radio and already rooted rom.
So I just downloaded that and applied update, I didn't even wipe before since I didn't want to lose my data.
Anyways problem solved.
also just picked up the desire , on rogers and was hoping to upgrade to 2.2, I had the hero before and it was a little more clear cut back then, but Im not sure to wait for official or just root and get stuff started,
NEed HELP

[Q] Questions While Running Leaked 2.2 Froyo

Hey folks, I was hoping you could help me with this one. I recently updated my droid incredible, rooted and installed the original Froyo Leak posted on xdadevelopers(I also ran v.5 of the patch). My question is now that I have froyo will I still get the same kind of app update notifications that I used to receive in 2.1? I have been running 2.2 for 4 days and haven't received any. Please let me know.
Thanks a Million!
i'm running the leaked OTA of froyo and i still get app updates. Go into market and hit the downloads tab just to be sure. See if any of yours say that there is an update.

gingerbread back to froyo?

hi is there anyway to go back to froyo from gingerbread on stock g2 i used the update from here and i hate all the bugs on gingerbread n will wait for them to get fixed also is there a difference between the update here and ota update?
Downgrading to 2.2 from 2.3 has been discussed extensively, there are threads on this very topic literally a couple posts under yours.
What bugs do you speak of? which "update from here" are you using (aka are you rooted or not?)? Need to be more specific. I haven't heard any noticeable number of complaints about 2.3 OTA stability. Seems extremely stable to me.
If you flashed a pre-rooted OTA it will be the exact same as the OTA as far as stability goes. They're the same ROM, just rooted.
If you're rooted and unhappy with the stability of your current setup, there are several threads in the dev section with pre-rooted OTA ROMs available for flashing. There are also many other extremely stable ROMs based on 2.3 in the dev section.
If you go back to 2.2 to "wait for the bugs to be fixed", you'll never come back to 2.3 because the G2 won't be getting anymore OTA's if I had to bet on it. I'm not sure what "bugs" you speak of, but you're either running a pre-release leaked build with issues, or improperly configured your phone/apps or had a bad flash.
