rooted GB by TBH version 4.6.4: how to go to GB version 4.6.8 ?

[robi72]

Hi
I'm on ROOTED GB by TBH.
My system version is 4.6.4 XT610.Verizon.en.us

I read the new GB ota is out and the new version is 4.6.8.
I managed to download the 4.6.8 file

How can I apply the new version ?

Thanks

Mmmm, I flashed the full SBF file by RSDlite, blur version 3.8,7, then use 4.6.8 update.zip file upgrading via SD card.

maybe not a best choice, but it works.

I think that is the only way to do it, but not sure. Have you rooted 4.6.8 and if so what did you use to root?

Actually if you full sbf to 3.8.7 the new update will come through I have done it three times, just sbf then check for updates in the about phone section


Edit: I did mine flashing sbf 2.26.20 and taking three updates

I would SBF to 3.8.7 and install the 4.6.8 update from here. Why wait for the OTA when you can get the update file from here. My $0.02.

yes, after upgrade to 4.6.8, using PetesMotorolaRootTools got root successfully.

thanks to everybody here: I've done exactly what you suggested:

SBF 3.8.7 (had to wipe data as I was stuck in bootloop),

upgrade to 4.6.8 (first to SBF I put the zip file on my sd renaming the file as update.zip)

root with Motorolaoneclick root

and obviosly restored all applications and data with Titanium backup pro.

Now I'm on new official GB with all my apps and data.

First off, someone needs to explain to me in idiot speak for me...

My phone isn't rooted, it has version 4.6.4.X610.Verizon.whatever that I downloaded and flashed to my phone awhile back when we were still on Froyo.

When I check for updates it says there aren't any. Where do I download the latest update and how can I get my phone to update it properly?

I'm in the same boat, but I found a download link for the latest GB 4.6.8. Can I rename it update.zip and flash it like before. It's my girlfriends phone so I don't want it down for to long. If anyone knows that would be great.

The most recent OTA update (OS 2.3.3 version 4.6.8) was designed to update a Droid Pro from OS 2.26 with OTA update 3.8.7 installed. If you are currently running 2.3 with version 4.6.4 then your phone will not indicate that there is an update available when you check and you cannot install a downloaded 4.6.8 zip file successfully the way you did 4.6.4. To update your phone to OS 2.3.3 version 4.6.8 (the latest) then you have to sbf back to 2.26 version 3.8.7.
