So if this is stable and issues have been fixed what's the big deal with not flashing back? Does anyone ever flash back to the original Android os just for the fun of it? Guess I'm not understanding what the fear is. Please help me to understand.

Basically, this prevents you from obtaining any future ota updates. This may not be so bad with the awesome devs here, but the other concern is the ability to return the device should something go wrong, to Verizon and not being huranged about having a rooted device, which of course voids the warranty.

You'll need to be on 181. You've probably heard but worth repeating that after you install the 84 leak, you won't be able to successfully fastboot to anything else for the time being nor get the official ics ota, when it comes.

isnt this the unoffical offical ics

is there anyway to upgrade to. 85?

You'll have to install manually from 181 stock. You can't upgrade from leak to leak.

But, if you've already installed the 84 leak, you're stuck with it.

Just curious.... can we sideload 85 right over 84 with rom manager and es file explorer?

I actually really like 84, I just wish I still had root for a few apps, I forgot to back up with voodoo from the last leak, guess I'll just have to wait...

[ogrekane313]

ok i want to go from .181 to .85 how would i go about it

[ogrekane313]

can you load it like the .75 leak with rom manager and es or do i do another way

[jasong127]

Sorry if this has been answered, but I can't find it... If you upgrade to .85 will that allow you to roll back to .181? I realize .84 kind of screws people, but haven't heard if .85 does as well.

stupid question: do we finally have access to the FFC in these leaks?

[jasong127]

So again with my goofy questions... I know the big issue everyone talks about is not being able to go back to GB. Is there any guarantee that the official release will allow that?

One other thought... I'm on GB now. I have no desire to go back to any other previous version of Android. Don't even know if that's possible. That doesn't seem to bother anyone... so why does this? Is it just because it's so new? I dunno... just things I wonder after I'm bored and read the entire internet.

[spollock]

The point is that since we cannot go back to GB, we cannot take any OTAs as we are now off the upgrade path.
Playing around with a leak to see what it is about is one thing. Stuck here permanently (Possibly) is a whole different goose.
