I just came here to post that! WTF Vzw? Samurai did warn everyone though that it would not be unheard of for the OTA to be a previous build.

That said, I may just go to 247 since everyone thinks it's golden.

Looks like .246 will be the OTA.

How would one get back to it? Just use HOB w/ the .246 files?

[jim52]

I guess will need to have the 246 files reposted?

Update to 246 worked like a charm. Thanks Samuri.

[SamuriHL]

Jesus everyone just calm the hell down. I'm working on it! Go read the FAQ as it's been updated. I'm working on the OP of this thread as I type.

[nobreak1970]

Easy there pardner.

[SamuriHL]

OP updated. Get to work.

WARNING: I'm *NOT* in the mood for dumbass n00b questions today. If you don't read the FAQ and OP and ask me stupid questions, you WILL NOT like my answers.

Thanks Sami!

I don't want to incur the wrath of the Samuri, but why the ASAP in the message to "downgrade" from 247 to 246? Can't we just wait for you to update HOB with the ICS FXZ file? (I know that sounds presumptuous but I can't think of a better way to say it.)

Why bother? 247 works well and unless someone finds a golden egg in 246, screw VZW. I'm sticking. JB or not.

You guys and gals can do what you wish. My goal is to get people to the OTA. I'm certainly not going to argue with people about it or sit here and try to convince you. If you don't want to follow my recommendation, so be it.

Sam im guessing you saw 246 is the OTA... right? is that why there is so much panic on here?

My question is why? IIRC, 247 is simply 246 with the JB patch. I just don't understand the necessity to roll back. No more OTA for the Bionic. Do we have an MD5 hash that shows the OTA 246 is different from the leaked 246?

I'm pretty sure an outfit like motorola is using some sort of change management system that automatically changes the build number when they compile new changes. There should be no way for that kind of system to produce to non-identical build (ie different MD5 hashes) with the same build numbers. It would defeat the entire purpose.

My thoughts as well.

Therefore, what's the upside to rolling back one version?

Not trying to be an A$$, just curious. I really don't need to be on what VZW wants me to be on. I'm definitely not a phanboi of theirs; quite the opposite.

Downgrade from .247 to .246 was flawless. Thanks again Sam!
