Trying to install 2.2, need help with this 'su' file.

[mosarmini]

Well I have root explorer, and when I go to my bin and xbin, I don't have an su file, and I tried putting it there manually but it said the phone is 'read-only' I'm so lost, how do I put my phone in stock mode, please help me, I really want 2.2

Same thing happened to me. I gave up and moved ahead. What happened was I lost root. Everything else apears to be fine.

I got no idea though, like what is this su file? so frsutrating -_-

You only need to find su if you are rooted and it doesn't sound like you are. If you haven't rooted then just flash away!

you all are making this to hard.
simple way, connect your phone to computer, pull down the notifications bar on phone, touch the USB connection notification, choose pc mode, then open windows explorer on your computer, copy the update.zip to your main phone directory, then follow the install instructions. you dont need root, or any other programs...

I think the point is if they had root to begin with. Sounds like there isn't a root method yet while in 2.2 so if you want root in 2.2 you have to follow this .su step.

SU (superuser) is only related to rooted phones, if you are rooted and want 2.2 to be rooted, make sure you move the file to the xbin. If you have trouble moving it, while in root explorer, press the "mount r/w" button at the top (allowing read/write instead or read only"

Thank you all, I got it updated, pretty neat, is this all the features of when the OTA 2.2 comes out? because I read you can copy/paste stuff from online but I don't have the option to do so.
