Is this something a guy like me ( I have a stock Epic and have never installed any custom rom's etc. ) could try to do? I checked out the youtube video, and it looks pretty straightforward. It sounds like I will 1st have to install the 'ClockworkMod' - is there anything special about this install that I'd need to be aware of?

Or, is this something that should be left to someone with more experience?

I read that the EI22 modem is not available. Does that mean if we proceed with this, something will not work? If so, what exactly?

I watched qbking's video's and read through the latest EI22 stuff over on xda. Odin'ed the EH17 modem (since i was on something older). Converted to rfs and did the system restore using the ei22 file. Pretty simple. Now to get all my contacts/apps/etc back up to speed.




edit: f all this jazz. I'm not gonna get my phone all set back up til the OTA is out or some ROMs roll out. I broke swype trying to flash a themed one. I know, my fault, but i'm not gonna spend the rest of my night playing with my phone. Got es on deez nutzz lol

If I had known they'd begin to release the update the day after I decided to try to root my phone I'd have done it a long time ago...

By my view, the baseband is EI22.

(Had to install it...wanted a good wifi/video recorder device.)

I know ACS was doing some sort of server change over or something yesterday, maybe something is still ongoing or messed up at the moment..

This may be the wrong thread, but is anyone (Paul) working on a battery percentage mod for EI22?

 

[QueenBe11]

I tried to do the Gingerbread update, but I don't have the folder "clockworks" that Im supposed to put the folder into?

I'm not good at this stuff, but figured I would give it a try, any help or suggestions are welcome

Any help with this issue is appreciated. BTW I have already done a factory reset from a rooted phone,

 

[ariessilva]

Hmmm, not sure but I had to do a full reset of my rooted phone in order to get gingerbread to install. The factory reset out of a rooted phone was not enough. You have to go back to stock. I followed the instructions on the main GB update thread. I tried to post link for you but I was not able to, sorry.

I know some have done it supposably, installing the manual update via CWM (ClockWorkMod) recovery but for the sake of making things "work" I would recommend restoring to stock Froyo EC05 and then you can do the manual update.

Oops meant to add that I stocked back to EC05.
