Another happy HoB user. I had a strange situation where my phone would not take the release OTA so I went the HoB route. Only had one snag (my own fault) however the process worked and I am now happily on ICS and everything is working well. I am afraid had there not been an outlet like HoB I would have had to go the dreaded Verizon support route. Now I am on track again and I "HAVE A NEW PHONE". Thanks Sam!

I'm coming from 893 with root.
When I apply the FXZ 905 update, I see this message "error: cannot load '.\905_FXZ\mbmloader_hs.bin'
The rest of the update looks fine. When the device reboots, it says it's now running 905.
Should I be worried about this error message? Am I missing something?
Should I run it again?

Just wanted to drop a note that you've done a great job! Appreciate the work on this! I'm now enjoying ICS! (rooted)...had to go back to 905 stock because I've been running rooted for some time...had fontchanger and titanium modify some files so I couldn't upgrade the normal way. You made it easy! Took me a few tries but if I had started with the windows version to begin with I'd been done in about 30 minutes!

Thanks!

P.S. FYI...I'm not really that n00b...I've run many ROM's on my OG Droid.

[SamuriHL]

Maybe try updating to the latest version of HoB where that error is fixed?

Or not. Goddamnit....I thought I fixed that. 8.6 coming up soon. Hold on.

That's how it works. For about 4 days battery life is all over the place. Once the phone settles down it's ____ing unreal how good it can be.

I bet it's the brain playing tricks on you. After update the battery runs like shiat, you get used to it after a while. Battery goes back to normal and you're like ZOMG THIS IS TEH BEST SHIAT EVAR!

Get 8.6. My bad. Sorry about that.

LOL. No, the phone is doing a whole bunch of crap for the first couple days so performance and battery life suck hard. After it's finished doing whatever the hell it's doing and it settles down, both are tremendous.

I downloaded the HoB on the first page, 8.5.

Yea, as I said, my bad. I fixed it in the FULL FXZ but missed it in the keep data FXZ. Sorry about that.

[ekc168]

Get 8.6. My bad. Sorry about that.

OK
So I assume I need to rerun FXZ.
Trying it now.
Thanks.

It'd be a good idea. I'm also wondering if, coming from a previous version, you might wanna run the Repair WEBTOP option in the utility menu just to be on the safe side. Do that after the FXZ finishes.

What does that do?
Is that only necessary if I use the Webtop accessories or for other things as well?

[SamuriHL]

No, it's not being updated anymore, but, I don't know if it'll screw up if you try to update 246 without it being on 905 webtop. Won't matter soon anyway. But I'd still do it regardless.

[nashi]

SamuriHL, since you/someone got the .905 FXZ by politely asking, is there a .246 FXZ yet?

PS Thanks for the HoB, went from .230 through .247 and back to .246 using HoB over the months, only one hiccup and a factory reset solved that in the early .240's.

It has arrived! Just a bit ago

I'm already on top of it. They made changes to the 246 FXZ that will require a HoB update. 905 will *NO LONGER BE SUPPORTED* by the HoB.

Have a link?

[SamuriHL]

PM'd. The HoB doesn't use the straight FXZ so posting it here would only confuse people.
