Going back to stock before update?

[sharra1#IM]

Hey I have a rooted droid with bugless beauty.
I do not think its 2.1 considering it says under phone info 2.0.1. but it does have alot of 2.1 feats. anyways, when moto and verizon roll out this 2.1 update ota, will i receive it even though im rooted on a different os?????

Any answers would be much abliged ....lol

you have to get back to stock. im having the same problem. i cant figure out how to get to stock from 2.0.3 sholes.

 

[sharra1#IM]

I was afraid you would say that.

 

[sharra1#IM]

Not to me!! but I figured it out. you just have to apply an unrooted update.zip like this........ http://downloads.sholes.info/update.zip. Correct me if I'm wrong.

 

[droidweasel]

thats right,check the other 2.1 forum,its there im doing the downgrade right now. will let u know.

 

[droidweasel]

ok,im back to stock. kinda sux for now but at least i get to try out 2.1 now.

I was soo close to rooting my phone this evening because I heard what kind of updates, however minor, were going to happen. Now that maybe, just maybe, a full 2.1 update might happen , I'm glad i didn't root my droid. So the waiting game begins..

Buggless Beauty disables ota updates. You need to reload your nandroid backup or install the unroot zip.

if you dont know how to do the nandroid restore then just download the sholes updater (search sholes in market, its like SMUpdater) and theres an option to revert back to stock there

I'll be interested to see what the pros are to 2.1 vs bugless beast. I have bugless beast and its pretty sweet. According to the news on this site 2.1 for the droid has the same app drawer and no live wallpapers. Bugless beast already has the news/weather widget, the 2.1 gallery and 5 homescreens. The only thing that seems to be missing is the multi-touch browser. IMO that doesn't seem worth losing the pros of bugless beast (the black notification bar, black/glass notification pane/notifications, overclock, etc)

so i used the sholes updater and now i have no voice commands but im back to stock ....help!!!!

 

[droidweasel]

id say wait it out. should be able to tell if u like 2.1 in a few days.

 

[sharra1#IM]

SM Updater is the best thing to happen for those who are afraid of rooting their phones. But SholesMod is great, been running 900mhz 24/7 for a week now. Speedy mod they have. SM Updater will revert your phone back to stock 2.0.1 and back to root in a jiffy.

What happens if I downloaded 2.1 launcher, gallery, etc. without rooting? Do I need to delete these before update?

I think the multi-touch browser will be a update to come later on.. I think it will come as an OTA or like the Google Maps..

No they are just apps. U are OK.

Nothing, you can delete them after the update, They are not system apps.

I think, it will be included in this update.

I read on BGR that the MT browser will be in this update but some of the pretty stuff will be left out (live wallpapaers and such). I'm not much for fluff anyways so it's all good to me.

Anyone have a link to download the stock update.zip file?
