Anyone else have trouble with the facebook feature that is integrated in the stock address book? It's not allowing me to add my facebook account. I guess DroidX has not worked on this feature yet?

De-Voodoo (if you're running it)
Odin flash ED1 rooted
Reboot and take EE4 update
ODIN flash cwm and boot into cwm
use cwm to flash kernel (pb&j perhaps), then wipe data, cache and dalvik
use cwm to flash AB v5
Reboot out of cwm
re-Voodoo (?)
Cake!

This is exactly what I did to my phone and what I'm in the middle of with my wife's phone as we speak (first and last steps are the slowest). I actually did it to my phone without wiping data, etc, but ended up doing it later just to be sure it was as clean as possible. Worked without the wipe, but no promises ;)
 
It seems taking the EE4 update is unrooting my phone after loading the EE1 Rooted Stock.

As long as I have the EE1/EE4 Baseband I should be fine to skip the OTA update step though correct?

I'm pretty sure the only way to get EE4 baseband is via EE4 ota...

I figured as much... but coming for stock EE4 to the ED1 rooted I see the EE4 in my baseband... When I do go through the OTA update I lose my root. Anyone have any suggestions of things to try?

I've already tested root access through terminal in ED1 and the EE4 Post upgrade.

I removed it, i didnt think anyone used it
 
There was not only no pop up for battery fully charged, but an icon didn't even show up in the notification bar either. Is that something that was removed from this rom?
 
DRIOD X i have a?
After installing AB5** i have no music player app and when i try opening XXX sites i get a no network access window but other sites work fine. Plz help
 
So was able to root the system and apply the EE4 update. Unfortunately I was unable to get CWM installed at all. I even tried installing it through ROM Manager from Market but it still did not apply. Any suggestions as to what to try next?

Do not use ROM Manager for any kind of flashing until you read from a dev that it specifically works. Right now, it doesn't and if you tried to flash the Rom Manager cwm, I'm not sure what that would do other than hopefully nothing.

So. You had ED1 root, updated to EE4, rebooted and now can't get cwm to install via Odin? What error are you getting? In order for me to get cwm to take on top of EE4, I first placed my phone into download mode then, before I hit the flash button in Odin, reinserted the battery. Flashing with the battery in worked for me on 2 phones. Also, I am pretty sure you must immediately flash a kernel via cwm immediately after getting it installed or the next boot will overwrite you newly installed cwm with stock recovery.

Good luck.

I still have my music player here... Did you wipe data, cache, dalvik? Shouldn't matter for that really, but it couldn't hurt if you've not done it.

Thanks for the hints,

Any reason I can't install CWM ontop of ED1? then do the EE4 OTA update?

You need to rever back to ED1 rooted. There's a nice guide on page 99 I quoted that is a nice step by step. I've had some trouble but I think i'm the minority
