Automatic Updates?

Perhaps a silly question but do you need a SE sync account for automatic updates to be received in the notification bar? My phone has never shown these messages and i have updated periodly through SEUS.
Another thing is it true rooted phones won't receive automatic updates?
Any light shed on this subject would be ace, thanks I only ask cos I don't won't to miss the glorious day when 2.1 is released.

Anyone got any ideas on this?

I didn't create a SE-login and I got a few updates in the past. Up to r2ba026.
As far as for the rooting, if you root using the x10 root .apk, I 'm sure everything will work fine

Thanks for your responce. I wasn't sure that's because I thought you may need the data sync to any FW updates can be sent.
I'm using the universal androot for rooting and finding that pretty good. It allows me to unroot if needs be, does the x10 root .apk you mentioned do this?
Does it make a differnce to any features or usabilty depending on different methods of rooting?
Sorry for so many questions, I am curious about all this

I used the .apk android rood method only to remove moxier and quadrapop, afterwards I unrooted... so I don't know
Of caurse the upgrade will again remove root, but let's hope the apk still works in 2.1

What is SE-Sync?
When updates are available OTA for unrooted phones, the carrier will send out a message as far as I know. I've been notified as soon as the update was available.
Then again, my carrier sent out letters in the mail to make sure people updated their firmware a few weeks ago. (got an update that doubled internet download speed with a new APN, and support for Japanese carrier mail)

As far as I know the root is not working on 2.1

If apk rooting doesn't work in 2.1 I suppose it will eventually work one day... Untill then I'll leave the unused apps alone.
Se-sync is the contact/agenda/favorites sync's app provided by SonyEricsson... I don't use it, I prefer google sync.

Which sbf for me?

Hi all,
I've been searching through the forums now for a while and still haven't identified exactly which sbf file is the one I need.
I got this d2 about 2 months ago verizon refurb, and I don't think I updated it at all (to be honest I can't remember) I rooted/rom it the next day.
Hope this info is what you need to tell me which (if it matters) version sbf I need,
System version: fission_2.5.7_BE
Android version: 2.2.1
Baseband version: BP_C_01.09.07P

Your phone is as up to date as possible. The sbf you want to look for is:
Droid 2, 2.3.20

Also when I hit Gmail Account Settings, it takes me to Data Manager! Anyone got the same problem?
Sent from my MotoA953 using XDA Premium App

Sorry guys, I'm such an idiot. The latest Gmail app changed the location of the settings.
Guide to change notification settings:
1) Go to your email inbox
2) Menu -> More -> Settings and select your email account
3) Check 'Email Notifications'
4) Hit 'Labels to Notify' -> 'Inbox'
5) Change your settings there =)

I'm currently using the Optus stock ROM (2.2)...to those who upgraded to 2.2.2 from the stock ROM, did you lose any settings/sms's/apps/etc (and were your phones rooted/etc as well?).
My phone is rooted and I have heavily frozen the MotoBLOAT so not sure if upgrade to 2.2.2 will remove the root and all the custom setup, etc...???
(I will unfreeze everything when I go to update mind you)
Many thanks!

2.2?

Hi guys. I am in the process of flashing a ROM for my wife's D2. From all of my reading on here, it seems she should be on 2.3. However her system is still 2.2. Am I misinformed? I've hit the system update on her phone, but it says her phone is up to date. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

2.2 = Android verion
2.3.2 = Verizon update

I'm in the same situation, I'm on android 2.2 and system update says no update available. ..
Sent from my DROID2 using XDA App

You can be rooted and still receive an update, correct? I know you would lose root privledges, but I am trying to remember if I had to unroot or not.
I'm not able to get the update either (which is basically all I should be writing in this post), but I'm going to just attribute that to my flashing the tbh all in one back to froyo.

I think you need to be unrooted and have all stock apps.

So what's the update really I mean,i have android 2.2 and I think the gb is not released officially am I wrong?i have ee4

Android 2.3.3 aka Gingerbread is now available to all via OTA.

Since when, cuz a few days ago I was stock on ee4 now I'm on gumny and never saw any update msssage
Sent from my SCH-I510 using XDA App

I'm rooted, and the update downloaded by itself. Of course, the only way I'm gonna install it is when a version of cm7 GB is out that has amazing battery life.
Sent from my DROID2 using XDA App

Which that wouldn't even work bc its not rootable.
Sent from my DROID2 using XDA App

The CM7 has a version for the OTA GB. I've been running it since I ran the OTA.

Root using D3 method, then install the latest CM7 Nightly. I'm running it right now, overclocked to 1.3ghz. This phone is stupid fast and the battery life is killer.

Milestone X root

Hi everyone I have a rooted evo and I've rooted and unrooted a couple times and I am very compfortable with flashing roms because I do it all the time. My boss has a milestone x and she wants me to root it for her. I was wondering if someone could give me a list of roms that are stable and work well on milestone x also hotspot working! Also is there an amonra recovery I can put on. If anyone has the files I will need to root that would be great. On my Evo I just unrevoke then flash amonra and a Rom and its in business. Is there a big change on how to root this? Thanks a lot Droidxers I really appreciate it!

I recently purchased a milestone x the gingerbreak app worked for me
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App

I rooted mine using SuperOneClick root and it worked easily!
As for a working ROM I have read that it is a long process to make Droid X ROM's work with our APN's and it is possible to get stuck with Verizon's network so I haven't even tried it.
What I have done that has made the experience much different is install some apps and script's that 180'ed the stock ROM and make it feel like a completely different device.

Well this is what I did, I searched gingerbreak on 4shared . Com website, downloaded, open it, then press root. The root is successful when it turns off, if it doesn't work redownload another apk..
For the CMW recovory..I searched droid x bootstrapper, again on 4 shared..pressed bootstrap recovery, then reboot recovery.
Far as custom roms go its not many that work on Milestone X, Liberty 2.0.1 does with no tweakin..
Miui and Cm7 works with a script kernel tweak seen here http://www.youtube.com/watch?nomobile=1&v=vxZ7cBt2K-Q you just have to delete the Verizon kernel script with notepad and save the changes..the exact tutorial is under "show more" under the video..that should work
