VZW is the root of all evil when dealing with Android phones. I'll probably be in Wyoming for my Ph. D. when it comes time to upgrade. You can bet your bottom dollar if I can find a better deal I'll be leaving VZW. Maybe sooner, if I can find a good deal once I get up there.

I'm waiting for the Nexus phones to see what my options will be.

[johnlgalt]

If VZW can get Sammy to lock a bootloader, then I'm out. Screw VZW - give me more freedom, and true unlimited and I'm a happy camper.

Rockin 242 at least. Thx for all your hard on this!

[SamuriHL]

No problem. Glad you find it useful. I gotta say I'm very proud of the fact that someone used the hob to install 242 before I even knew it was leaked much less got my hands on it.

[johnlgalt]

I'm doing a full backup in TB first, and then I'm considering actually wiping completely and starting fresh....

I might do that this weekend, and just install .242 for now....

[SamuriHL]

I'll be doing the same again. Always good to give a fresh start. And if this will be ota then great. I'll simply do a factory reset, set up my settings, and restore my apps.

That's only 1/3 of the files. Let me open the diff again and make a screenie lol.

IIRC, 489 files changed and 815 unchanged.

Yup, verified.

[SamuriHL]

That's still a lot of changes!

[johnlgalt]

No more so than previous builds.....

In fact the change from .235 to .238 was the same 489 / 815 ratio.

Must be something to do with how they sign it then.

And that's purty!

Great tool Samuri. When you guys stay you want a clean start when going to a new leak, is the best way to do this just wiping data/factory reset in stock recovery?

[SamuriHL]

Yup. I'll reboot into stock recovery and use the factory reset option and then set up the phone clean. I'll restore my apps with Rom Toolbox Pro. But no system settings will be restored.

[grizzy]

Okay cool. Thanks for the quick response. I'm probably going to go from 238 to 242 later today.

[SamuriHL]

Sweet. Good luck!

[grizzy]

Thanks!

Kepp on rockin the .242 - I am. I haven't really played with it, but it's gonna be hard to top .238 b/c .238 was smooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooth as butter.

[SamuriHL]

That's the 276 JB build you're thinking of.
