[HOW TO] Update to 2.1 Official Sprint Release

[kpederson9999]

I seem to have lost my 2.1.3 recovery, Do you know where that download is?

[LouZiffer]

The new updater checks to make sure what it flashes is "official". For folks who want their custom recovery back, here's a 3MB patch which reverts the new updater to the old. That way they can flash what they want.

This patch only changes the updating routine. It keeps the new Samsung drivers, which seem more resilient and capable of flashing.

OK, so it lets me get all the way to the start of the download option, but then gives me and error of e-dll cannot open the usb serial port.code: 87. Any ideas, on what I need to do?

anyone have a build we can just download directly from the Moment? That worked for me for calkulin's ROM and it was really really easy

[sugosugita]

Meh....nevermind. Got a cable from the sprint store and will return tomorrow

So how to we root this thing>?
