Manual update instructions, because waiting sucks

http://android.clients.google.com/p...553.signed-soju-GRH78-from-GRH55.a71a2082.zip

• Download the OTA package here ^^
• Rename it to update.zip, and place it on the root of your internal storage
• Shut down your phone, and reboot into the bootloader by holding volume up and powering back on
• Use the volume buttons to choose "recovery" from the list, and select it with the power button
• When you see the triangle on your screen, press volume up and power once more and you'll have a list of options, choose to update

And I tweaked your title a bit and stickied this mojonation

Nope. And it looks like if you've flashed CWM recovery, you can't go back to stock recovery. Investigating that one a bit.

Jerry, I don't get a red triangle, stuck on the last step... help? please?

 

[TrivialTweeter]

I get a white triangle with yellow exclamation mark in it. Did I do something wrong, or do I need to wait longer for it to turn red?

Edit: Figured it out.....updating now. Thanks guys!

Exactly the same thing on mine... Anyone have a clue what I am doing wrong?

I've not long had mine unboxed and I've already updated her! Thanks for the manual instructions.

@ Smokexz & TrivialTweeter
Make sure you follow the last step!
"When you see the red triangle on your screen, press volume up and power once more and you'll have a list of options, choose to update"

How did yours work? I didn't get a red triangle at the end on the final step.

EDIT: My Triangle was white from what I remember.
Just updated my post with the tip you need!

 

[tattedboss]

I <3 you

I got it thanks... updating now.

EDIT: No visible changes.... I think maybe my complaint of the launcher becoming completely unresponsive might have been fixed? who knows, will test out.

EDIT 2: The new market still disappears... I have no idea what they fixed.

Sorry guys for the red triangle

Too many devices to keep track of. For the record, new HTC phones are the ones with the RED triangle

You know what would really make up for that? Reporting anything you notice different >.> I know you have spent much more time with it than I have, or maybe anyone here.

ROOT is the main part of a plant no? Without it, it cannot live. Just like files could not live if there were no roots to place them in.

It's just the when you open up the REMOVABLE FILE DISK just place it right there where you place the folders.

Could this have fixed that wi-fi issue? anyone try? I don't have a Nexus One to compare.
