Patching CyanogenMOD v5.0.6 to Froyo FRF50
25/05/2010Android 2.2 “Froyo” was announced officially announced on the 20th of May, less than a week back.
Just yesterday, I decided it was time that I looked into upgrading to Froyo and decided to first check with my mate Doug (@dougedey) and he directed me to this thread on MoDaCo.
Step one was to ensure the downloaded file’s hash matched that listed next in the thread:
1 2 | bsodmike@iMac27:~/Desktop$ openssl md5 update-nexusone-FRF50-signed.zip MD5(update-nexusone-FRF50-signed.zip)= 946229291ed8e24cd80aeb4a66ca2fc7 |
It was quite straight forward from this point. I simply copied the zip to the root of the SD card on my Nexus One and checked the MD5 hash on the device as well – after copying it across. It took a bit longer considering mine is a Class 2 Sandisk 8 GB MicroSDHC card.
My apps had already been backed up, and any new ones were automatically copied to the SD card thanks to App2SD in CyanogenMOD v5.0.6. Everything else was backed up too (from SMSs to Call Logs); the rest was of course synced with the Google cloud.
The screen changed to this icon for a while as the radio was updated, I just had to wait it out…
The process terminated at this prompt, with nothing else. I noticed that Amon_RA’s Recovery menu was active again and just did a reboot.
