warned about this by samsung members app, updating now
Can someone please capture and share the download URL or upload the OTA.zip for this build ?
I'm sure there are many beta 1 users (me included) who would be very grateful to get a chance to update their non-offiical beta builds.
If someone can create an Odin package of this build it would be even better but I guess we can use ZPK4 Odin and use Adb sideload to flash the OTA.
Thanks in advance !!
Everything feels a lot smoother, better optimised, but gallery image scrolling seems a little stuttery still
Samsung Pass new feature doesn't seem to work yet, tried logging in, asked for password twice, then told me it wasn't available and asked for the password again

Google the following: capture ota url (Sorry I can't post URLs)
There's a guide from Andriodsage (How to Capture OTA Update URL For Your Android Device [OTA Capture Guide])
If this method fails, may try searching for the large .zip file (using ES File Explorer) downloaded by the ota update (after downloading but before installing)
Thanks in advance

Need root to access the update zip, people have already tried using ADB without root and failed too

WiFi seems better in this build? I'm getting a stronger signal and faster speed test results it seems

Hmm... didn't realize that...
What about using recovery and applying update from external storage ?
In any case, getting the OTA file would be one step in the right direction

That's the issue, we can't get the OTA zip without root in order to share with you, and if we already have root, we can't get the OTA
This has been the same problem since the 2nd release
We would have to download the OTA, then root, then capture the zip and copy to PC, but rooting after OTA would also be a problem as the phone reboots and likely clears caches, which will delete the OTA
There may be another method to capture the zip, but so far we haven't discovered it

Where there's will there's a way.. but it's a little complicated.
Setup a caching proxy on a PC and use that proxy in the GS7 WiFi settings. Then when you download the OTA.. the PC would have the download in its cache.
If someone wants to give this a try I can help setting up such a proxy and get the file uploaded.

Yea that could work possibly, if the PC caches it and doesn't just route it direct
I think capturing the link using wireshark or something could be another method, but would the samsung servers allow a non Samsung registered device, such as a PC, to download the zip?
No doubt there is a way, but seems to be a PITA atm

Lol.. When is it not PITA with non-rooted Samsungs??
In any case, I'm gamed to setup a Wingate proxy on a cloud server just to try and capture that damn OTA file... so if anyone wants to attempt an OTA download while setting their wifi temporarily to that proxy just PM me..

It will be useful if you add a manual HOW TO DO IT
Yea I think people are going to prefer to set up their own proxies rather than use someone else's, as all traffic including sensitive data will be routed through the proxy, not just the OTA zip
Anyone make a flash able zip

After reading some of comments here I realize it's not as simple as I initially thought so here's how I'd try to do it ..
This is not sure to work because it cannot cache encrypted (SSL) traffic but it may be worth a shot.
Obviously, you will need to have your Phone either on Stock 6.0.1 or Beta 1 (ZPK4) to get the correct OTA image.
Phase 1 - Install a local proxy server on a computer in your network
======
Note: you need a Windows PC on to use the same WiFi network as your phone to reduce the number of possible issues
1. Download and install FreeProxy (I can't publish URLs but you can get at www[remove this space].handcraftedsoftware.org/index.php?page=download&op=getFile&id=2&title=FreeProxy-Internet-Suite
2. Find the FreeProxy in your start menu, right click to Run as Administrator
3. Create a local folder to store the proxy cache (e.g. C:\cache)
4. In FreeProxy go the "Define" --> Define Cache, provide the path to the folder you created and activate cache.
5. Go to "Start / Stop" and start the service - we have a runnig proxy which will save files to C:\cache (in this example)
6. Before we can connect to the proxy from the phone we need to allow this connection in the windows firewall
(if you are using a 3rd party security software like Symantec, Kaspersky, Bitdefender, ESET, etc.. refer to its documentation on how to allow a specific port.)
7. Go to Windows Start Menu and write "Firewall" , open the Windows Firewall
8. Select "Advanced Settings"
9. In the "Windows Firewall with Advanced Security" go to "Inbound Rules"
10. create a new Rule, select Port, TCP, in the specific port write 8080, then next
11. Allow the connection , keep all three options checked, and name it Proxy and finish'
Now we need to note that PC's IP address (if you are familiar with command prompt you can simply use ipconfig)
12. On your PC, go to start and write network, open the "Network Connections"
13. Locate the adapter (WiFi, or Wired) that you are using
14. Rignt click it, select "status", then the details button, note the IPv4 address
Phase 2 - Configure your phone to use the proxy
======
1. on the phone go to settings, WiFi
2. long press the WiFi network you're connected to (should be the same network as your Windows PC), and select "Manage Network Settings"
3. Check the "show advanced options"
4. on the PC, check Proxy, select "Maunal"
5. in pproxy hostname enter the IP address of the PC that you noted in the previous section
6. in the port use 8080
7. click save
8. restart your phone
9. run the OTA update to get the update and install normally
Finally, check your C:\cache folder, if this worked you should have the OTA zip file there (may be a different file name but you should identify by its size)
Once this is done (even if it failed) make sure you remove the proxy settings from your phone WiFi, and you can stop the FreeProxy on your windows PC.
If it does work you may want to keep FreeProxy on your system for any future captured.. if it doesn't just uninstall it..
One question: do you have OTA updates 1 and 2? If don't then it doesn't make a sense to grab OTA 3 because it expects that you have previous OTAs installed already. Without it the installation will crash or you can corrupt your system.

I actually noted that in the original post but I used bold text now to make sure people don't miss it
Ideally, a registered beta tester would go back to the latest official 6.0.1.. then the OTA should be a full ZPL3 update (at least I'm hoping it would be)
Like I said, there's no guarantee it would work.. it's a possibility.
Obviously, a better solution would have been to use a transparent proxy with the router redirecting all traffic and using ssl decryption but it's way too complicated to setup..
Alternatively, if your router supports packet capture or tcpdump that data can show the OTA URL.
It seems that the Android System battery bug is gone in the latest beta build.
Look at my screenshot. It's never been that good since beta 1!
I can't do any ota and I have the beta 1. Is this normal? I'd like to update to beta 3 but ota is saying I have the latest firmware '...zpk1'
Any help would greatly be appriciated. Btw I'm not a 'beta user' I flashed this firmware via Odin

Ok Guys,
Tired of your HD2 WP7 constantly relocking when you connect your device to your PC?
Tried everything else and nothing works?
I recommend you use method 2 below as this has been 100% reliable, i have not had a single lock since doing the reg change.
METHOD 1 - Easy Method without Registry Edits - Not as reliable as below REG method - device still frequently locks
OK this should work for you. here is the original thread for those who want to know why. Please give thanks to Morpheus90, I just stumbled across it in WP7 D&H and posted it here after trying it
Unlock your phone with Chevron before doing anything, then disconnect it from your pc. (This step is very important, if it is not unlocked you cannot proceed)
If it's already unlocked you can go on to the next step.
Navigate to the hosts file found in Windows\System32\drivers\etc on your pc. Right click it and ensure you have write & read permissions for your user otherwise you will not be able to save it.
Now, with a text editor like Notepad or Notepad++ (DO NOT use Wordpad or Word) open the hosts file.
Add the following lines at the end of the file:
127.0.0.1 developerservices.windowsphone.com
127.0.0.1 developerservices.windowsphone-int.com
If you have similar lines but with a different ip address, delete them.
Save it and close the editor. Modify user permissions for the hosts file disabling write capability (as you did before.)
Turn Off WiFi on your HD2 before you connect it to Zune, then Sync via usb. It should not be relocked.
Just remember, if you dont want your device to lock again immediately, turn off your HD2's wifi or enter airplane mode before you connect to your computer.
Again, please give thanks to Morpheus90
METHOD 2 - Semi-Permanent Method via registry edits - Very reliable - more effort required due to REG changes
This method utilises Schaps Advanced Config for WP7 so please give thanks to Schaps. Download it via the thread and deploy (install) using Application Deployment in your SDK tools. Note you must be unlocked to install this xap
Now you have Adv Config installed and are Chevron Unlocked you are ready to move on to the next step, please give your thanks to DanielNTX in his thread which also gives a full explanation as to the reasons for the unlocking.
Unzip and email to your device a copy of the unlock.me cert; then goto your device, find the email and install the cert.
Using Advanced Config, type in the following reg entries on your device one at a time:
Key Name : HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\DeviceReg
Value Name : PortalUrlProd
Data (string) : "https://developerservices.unlock.me/Services/WindowsPhoneRegistration.svc/01/2010" (do not type"")
Click Apply.
Now add:
Key Name : HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\DeviceReg
Value Name : PortalUrlInt
Data (string) : "https://developerservices.unlock.me/Services/WindowsPhoneRegistration.svc/01/2010" (do not type"")
Click Apply
Now you have to edit your hosts file using Notepad or Notepad++ (DO NOT use Wordpad or Word)
Right click hosts file found in your \windows\system32\drivers\etc folder, click on properties/security and edit the permissions for your user name enabling all permissions.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Now in your hosts file in , you should set up an entry for developerservices.unlock.me with your computer's own IP address. for example 168.1.1.19 developerservices.unlock.me
Click Save.
Now you must re-edit your permissions as you did above to your hosts file leaving "read" & "read & execute" ticked. Close the screens. Important: do not right click, properties and click read only as Chevron will not unlock you giving you an error message "Chevron has experienced a problem and is closing"
Ok, you are nearly finished.
You now have the unlockme cert installed to your phone, you have made the regisrty changes to your HD2 and altered the hosts file on your PC.
Finally, restart your HD2 to apply the new reg entries.
Connect to your computer, sync with Zune and If you have followed the guide fully your device should still be unlocked. There is no need to turn off wifi or enter airplane mode. I have tested this many time today, restarting both PC & device regularly.
IMPORTANT If you use a laptop at work and home for example, which means you will have 2 different IP addresses, you must also add your home IP to your hosts file, if you do not then your device will relock instantly.
Your device MAY occasionally relock, for some reason, but you should be able to use chevron to unlock easily without any hassle
Please give thanks to DanielNTX
Enjoy your freedom
Everything above works well, but with one (major) addition:
Turn Off WiFi on your HD2 before you connect it to Zune, then Sync via usb. It should not be relocked.

You should turn off any data connection to the cellular network as well, otherwise it won't work (at least in my case).
i haven't had this issue yet myself. the very time i unlocked mine, it hasn't locked since. i keep my wifi and data on. i connect to zune and sync my movies and music over just fine. i even make sure i can side load when i'm done just to make sure it isn't locked.
but since i got my live services activated, i don't even see the point of side loading apps. i just use the market now to get whatever i want. i'm just wondering if i just got plain lucky not to have these issues, or if there are others that in my boat that didn't have any issues at all like these?

Nothing weird about this.......you will quickly realize that just about everybody on this thread with WP7 has had this issue. Good luck fixing it...
Don't work, phone relocks everytime, zune deletes the certificate on the phone after some time. Sideload apps is not worth it. Get an activation key and you have no problems.

Hey there, That shouldnt be the case if the instructions were fully followed. By turning off wifi before docking, it shouldnt relock esp when host file is read only.
Wifi - off, hosts read only and does't work. And when hosts file is read only i can't unlock the phone by the cheveronWP7. Deploying application at this moment is not avaible too.
Hosts must be writable and I have to unlock phone every time before deploying.

Ok Guys,
First post updated after editing registry with Schaps advanced config.
(btw for the easy fix, you cannot set the host file to read only, you must de-select all other permissions such as write etc in "edit permissions", keeping read ticked)
I have been able to unlock the phone only when I go into airplane mode and change the date on my computer and HD2 to 01 October 2011. I have activated, but still couldn´t download from marketplace or XBOX live. I am located here in Germany, can that be a problem?

On the risk of makin' either of us seem like a n00b... have you tried to just 'unlock' the phone, as in: power on, slide up lockscreen, lookin at the home tiles... then try again.
I unlocked once with chevron, no tricks (just install cert on phone and run unlocker) and it has never caused me any problem since. I can't sideload anything, however, unless my phone is powered on and 'unlocked' - getting a similar error otherwise.

If you change your card, you have to do a hard reset. You will lose your settings and any apps you have downloaded and activation and it will have to be redone.
I am using WP7 leo70 ROM on my HTC HD2 (unlocked ATT). After I successfully unlocked everything I started downloading apps from the WP7 Marketplace. It was great for about 24 hours and then everything relocked (without ever plugging back into my computer). I rebooted the ROM and then did the process over just sideloading apps and not using marketplace or xbox live and I have not had any problems in about 48 hours. How long have you been able to use the Marketplace without a re-lock?
Every time I connected my HD2/7 I run Chevron and get hosts modification automatically. And in hosts added not
MYIP.*.*.* developerservices.unlock.me
MYIP.*.*.* developerservices.unlock.me
but
127.0.0.1 developerservices.windowsphone.com
127.0.0.1 developerservices.windowsphone-int.com
But, I deploy all in registry (about link modifications) and then reboot my phone.
Now, I think, in my phone in registry developerservices.unlock.me but in hosts file added 127.0.0.1 developerservices.windowsphone.com and Chevron can't unlock. Do you have any ideas how to solve this?
It would be nice, if the permission ticking (owner, gray and black checkmarks for allow and deny) is explained with more details.

Okay with hosts file read only after unlocking it could work, will try it

I am brand new to XDA and therefore can't post to the development thread. I have done Super One Click to my bravo and I believe it successfully rooted it. I am trying to add the wifi tether app but because it's non-market it won't let me load the application. The SOC said that it successfully added the non-market app coding but it doesn't seem to have worked. Any suggestions?
Enable att non-market app
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* I am not responsible if you brick your phone, but this is the easiest way, besides ADB shell comand.
** this step also work on At&t flipout
1. Root your bravo.
2. Install "RootExplorer".
3. Install "SQLite Editor".
4. Use "RootExplorer" take you to
/data/data/com.motorola.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db/settings
5. click on the "Value" colum of "force_only_market_apps"
6. Press "menu" button and select "Edit Field"
7. Change "1" to "0", then save.
Now you have "Unknown sources" option available for you at "Application Settings". ( check it to enable non-market install directly from web or your microsd card )
So you're saying using the SQL editor on the phone to change the value right? Also is there a free editor available? I've seen this online and have a free root explorer but so far ahven't found a free editor.

There is a discussion about pulling the file out of the phone, edit it and re-install back in. ( somehow I found that method little more risky, if you didn't keep the file in proper format, you might end up w/ infinite loop )
enable non market app on Motorola bravo
First i want to thank No Clue for the final part of this post , because without him i could not have made it possible .
Here is a step by step method to remove (non-market App ) block from your
Motorola BRAVO with AT&T:
First you need to make sure your Bravo is Rooted.
Here is what you need to do for that:
1- you plug your Motorola Bravo to your computer, using the USB cord provided
and as prompted, install the driver (motorola portal) needed to sync your
phone to your PC.Make sure you Check on : Settings/Applications/Development/
USB Debugging.(debug mode when USB connected)
2- Once phone connected to PC successfully. Download this zip file (added below):
AC-SWM.zip
Unzip on your desktop.
( the content of this zip file has everything to perform what is commonly called :
"side load" non-market applications.)
* How to use AC-SWM:
- drop your non-market application into the "payload" folder
- doubleclick "loader.bat" to run application
- If phone successfully connected to computer. a DOS window
will come up and will read "daemon started successfully"
and will show a serial number of the device attached.
the rest is pretty much self guided.
- You push enter and it will show the process of installing wathever
app you have on your "payload" folder.If installed successfully it will
display message "Success".
3- Knowing this. The first step to successfully control internal data on your phone
is to "root" it.
Thats where you are going to need the "side load" method to install :
Superuser.apk (added below)
This will give the following applications access to your phone ROM
z4root.1.3.0.apk (added below).
That little application is the easyest way to root your phone.
just install it and run it. On screen your will have a button that says "ROOT"
press on it and let the magic happen! It will root the phone and will reboot by
itself.
Once the phone back on you should be rooted.
4- Now that it is rooted. There is an option that was removed from your phone
by AT&T that enables "non-market" applications to install.
You need to get to the settings database on your phone to restore that option.
ON Motorola bravos the two database files that controls this option are :
etc/motorola/com.motorola.android.providers.settings/setting.mkitso
and
etc/motorola/com.android.providers.settings/secure.mkitso.
But without some sort of file explorer app you can't access those files.
We are going to use the same "side load" process to install these apps:
- root explorer.apk (added below)
- sqleditor.v1.4.apk (added below)
* what are their functions?
- root explorer, will allow you to show on a list all the files on your phone
including the "root directory" files among witch will be listed the two files
we talked about above. but at this point we can only see them, but we can't
change the codings on them (edit).
- To be able to "edit" data files on your phone you need SQLite editor. It will
also give you the ability to change the codings to it .
5- So after installing those two applications . Run root explorer, it'll take a
little time to find and list all the files on your phone . Then get into these files:
data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db
(*thats when sql editor will take over and allow you to see settings.db contents)
you go to "secure"
locate the line listed as : Install_non_market_apps press "menu" button to edit
Records and change value to "1".
and save change.
data/data/com.motorola.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db
(*thats when sql editor will take over and allow you to see settings.db contents)
you go to "settings"
locate the line listed as : force_only_market_apps press "menu" button to edit
Records and change value to "0".
and save change.
6- go back to home screen and open settings on home screen menu
Applications, and voila!
you should have now an "unknown sources" check field available to you.
PS: if Field is not showing try to download a non-market app directly to Phone
and install.
phone will show a message asking if you are sure you want to authorize this app.
and a setting button.

^^that worked gteat, thanks a lot.
Ok I have followed the steps and still no check box for non market apps.
Fixed. Just went ahead and bought re and sql. I will use them in future use anyway. Now it is time to open my kitchen. I hope you guys know what that means.

What did not work for you exactly .
i would want this post to remain up to date?!
cause previous user was able to make it work!
Is it one of the files i attached that is not working for you?!
give me details please?!
When I installed your root explorer and sqlite file the sq wouldn't autostart. I have been modding for a while so I rushed and just pulled the db files edited and replaced. Which caused a boot cycle. So I hard reset and installed my purchased root and sq apps. It worked flawlessly that way. I will be dumping my system into the kitchen over the weekend.
With how smooth this phone is I would have figured another dev would have started working with this phone. I will be working on the Bravo while working on my X10. Wish me luck.

Yeah! You right, noone even gave it the time of the day... I guess it's because of all those restrictions with AT&T.
But you know where to find me if you get the cooked ROM to work on this!!!
GOOOOOODDDD LUUUUCCKKKK!!!!
I would say the first step to this is to change the bootloader , but can't find a clockwork that works on Bravo.
same problem plagued the X10 for the longest of times. Now they have about 8 roms including MIUI and CM7 with a locked bootloader. So patients and time will be the key.
just set up WIFI tether. Worked great Thank you.
So Londnwhitted,
The unlocking process worked fine for you with files attached?!
glad i was able to help... apparently those files works fine for some people, and not too well for others, still dont see what is causing this!

you need to master reset after changing those 2 files on most bravo's, that is probably the problem. I did your procedure a while back on my gf's bravo using info i pieced together from other phones, i tried everything but it would not work till i master reset after making the changes, period.

Sideloader worked great.
The explorer and the sql editor worked. I only changed the 2nd value "force_only_market_apps" and then i was good to go. I couldnt find the Install_non_market_apps value. But after everything i didnt need it.
Didnt have to reset.
Tether works (2.06 not the 3.0) but its rather slow on my nook color. anyone have any ideas how to speed it up?

it may be because i assume ur using the adhoc mod for ur nook color? i hear the supplicant used is problematic. Unfortunately i doubt the bravo wifi supports ap mode but has anyone tried? dl wifi tether 3.0 from the google code site and see if it will let you set hostapd mode. it works great on the dx but the dx has an ap mode wifi firmware included from motorola for the vzw app.
I use abd install extremely easy for installing third party apps, simple and very painless.

Great advice Lec. Was looking all over for that little sucker. Thanks!
It is frustrating to be constantly reminded that an update is available (Acer_1.139.05_Com_Gen1) while the update process fails because of a damaged or missing file.
In my case this is Maps.apk
The log file reminds me that not only is the Maps.apk not correct (hash sum is wrong), but there is no record of a cached version in a file called saved.file
So, can one of the bright sparks here help with a Step by Step guide for n00b to remedy this for me and others in a similar pickle.
The hardware is fine; this is a software issue.
I do have Better Terminal Pro installed and a SD card.
Please post suggestions/solutions here and/or DM me.
I think this is a flaw in their update process. They allow Google Maps to be updated via market. After you allow the market to update the apk, the file hash is no longer the same. Now, Acer is expecting you to be on the original Maps.apk in order to process their differential update. It would seem that this could even happen to non-rooted tablets, so this is not a good idea for Acer to be doing it this way. Until we know for sure, I would advise folks to not allow Google Maps to update via market unless they have a backup copy of their original .apk.
You will need to obtain the original maps.apk that came with 1.016.05_COM_GEN1 and replace the .apk and matching .odex (if their is one) in /system/apps. You will need to use mount the /system in r/w mode in order to do with with root explorer etc. After you have done, the updater should get past this issue. Their are device dump system images posted in a dev thread that you can extract to get the .apk. There is a tool (can't think of the name at the moment) that allows you to extract these dd images.

That is absolutely absurd and ridiculous practice by Acer !!
it also confirmed my finding ( regarding FLASH )
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14181655&postcount=100
legal market apps updates all the time... Do they (Acer) expected us to stay put with the originals at all time ??
If I read you correctly, I have to have root in order to put these file(s) back ?
What if I don't want to root and keep my device stock like the majority of "regular" users but I did updated (maps, flash...etc ) ?? DANGGGG !!!
getting more and more like Apple way of practice !!
ARGGHHH !
I love this device !, but the more and more I found things about Acer.... won't be a repeat customer, that's for sure !.... Thankful for XDA's members helping out though

This is NOT something that happens as a matter of course. You must have some issue with your specific device as the updates work perfectly fine with apps updated from the market.
So far, you are the ONLY one reporting this issue, therefore it must be a local problem.
Exchange your unit.

I just did a factory reset again just for the sake of seeing what files are in the "system/app" folder...
SAME, 122 files...
my stock device does not have the following 3 files...
BooksTablet.apk
LinkToAdobeFlash.apk
LinkToAdobeFlash.odex
as soon as I setup, it notified me there's update available in market ( maps )... I declined, and this unit is COMPLETELY STOCK.... no flash update either.
I wondered if it has anything to do with my device being on the kernel & build # of:
1.016.05_COM_GEN1 ( Kernel 2.6.36.3-00001-gf991e5d )
read it somewhere that my kernel/build came with flash 10.2 and earlier build ( the ones that are getting the updates now ) came with flash 10.1
just trying to tie 2 & 2 together
I can't just exchange the unit do to the fact that I cannot prove there is something wrong when going into the store....
will wait and see when the update roll out for my particular build # then...
I wondered if anyone with the same build & kernel as me seeing the same thing
Bear in mind that the updates are incremental and are designed to go FROM a specific build TO a newer build. You should not try to use an update that's for a different build number... That's why they're not appearing for everyone. Acer need to create the builds first, then stagger the releases.
Can you go into the application settings and choose uninstall updates under google maps? I'm not familiar with honeycomb. But i know 2.1, 2.2 and 2.3 have this feature available for system apps

I have no idea why your Maps.apk is invalid. I have updated mine just fine from Market and I ain't getting such issues.
But well, one of the easiest ways of fixing that could be to just reinstall a stock ROM. Of course, it means you'll lose some (most) of your settings and have to redo it all, but.. well, atleast you'd have the OS back as it is supposed to be and future update should work again.
See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=15914563#post15914563 if you decide to go that route.
READ THIS FIRST:After downloading "oxygenos_1.0.0.zip" you will notice that it contains a folder with two files:
oxygenos_1.0.0_flashable.md5
oxygenos_1.0.0_flashable.zip
Extract oxygenos_1.0.0_flashable.zip first, then copy it to the SD card, wipe, flash, etc.
MultiROM works!

}
Installation steps:
Please make sure all your data and files are backed up before commencing. Flashing OxygenOS onto CM does require a system wipe, so you will lose all of your data. We are actively working on an easier, more automated solution soon to be available, but for now the build must be flashed manually.
Please proceed only if you are confident in your abilities to flash a custom ROM. This guide exists to help you flash OxygenOS, but things can still go wrong if not followed correctly. While rooting and flashing will not void your OnePlus warranty, any damage caused by improper flashing is not covered under warranty.
The following instructions assume you have Fastboot and ADB installed.
Step 1
You first need to flash a recovery onto your device. We recommend using TWRP. Please download the recovery image to your computer. You can follow their instructions to flash recovery, or you can reference these steps:
Boot into fastboot mode. You can do this on your OnePlus One by holding down the power button and the volume up button. When you see the fastboot logo, connect your device to your computer.
In your terminal window, find the folder where you put the recovery image and run the following commands:
fastboot oem unlock (You can skip this step if your phone’s bootloader is already unlocked).
fastboot flash recovery <recovery.img>. Image file should be the TWRP recovery image.
fastboot reboot
You should now have the recovery installed.
Step 2
Copy oxygenos_1.0.0.flashable.zip to your phone. On a Mac, you can use Android File Transfer.
Step 3
Boot into recovery. You can do this on your OnePlus One by holding down both the volume down key and the power button.
Step 4
Once you are in the recovery interface, the first thing you want to do is a factory reset. Again, you will lose all your data so please make sure you have backed up everything before doing this.
Step 5
After the wipe, go to install and find oxygenos_1.0.0.flashable.zip. Confirm flash. This will flash OxygenOS onto your device.
Step 6
After the flash succeeds, you can reboot the device, which will take you to the new OxygenOS. Enjoy!
If you find yourself wanting to rollback to CM, Make sure you have TWRP or CM recovery on the device. Another factory reset will be needed before flashing unfortunately so make sure you backup all of you data.

Did you extract the zip? There is a flashable zip in the zip you downloaded.
There is a zip inside downloaded zip! Flash that.
I'm about to buy this TV is it rootable?
Hisense 43A6H Google tv rootable?
Technically speaking anything that runs on android can achieve root access. But I think you’re asking if there’s active development. I recently bought a Hisense 65” U6h myself, and there is no development that I have found . If all you need is root, try to get your hands on the stock boot.img from the factory rom. If there’s any updates for your model download it on the computer extract the boot.img and then copy it to a usb drive plug the drive into your tv install magisk apk and use the boot.img on the flash drive to do the patch. Would you mind if I ask what you are trying to accomplish with root access?
well I'm actually trying to remove system apps the easy way by using Mi Explorer and improve system performance and free up some internal storage space so I have enough room to play morrowind by the way sorry for the no spaces I'm not really sure how to use this remote control microphone on my Hisense 43a6h Google TV. honestly there's a lot more stuff I want to do with it as well though like using Viper for Android and among other things like my God VPN repeater hotspot. thanks

Hey. I’m so sorry about the delayed reply I haven’t been on the forum too often lately. I’m not too familiar with the pkg compression personally. If you were able to pull that boot.img you should be able to just use that in magisk as the boot image to patch. I’ll log in my computer soon and try to download it and see what happens on my Linux system. How did you get that firmware file from them, what did you ask? I might just end up doing the same lol. I have been using adb to remove things such as google tv home launcher replaced with premium projectivy

Mine is the U6h but is essentially the same. For these purposes at least. The main difference between the two is a different type of panel .
I wonder if you have the blinking power light issue like I do after using adb to fully remove google home launcher. I took a sharp knife and one of those square rubber feet for furniture and cut it down to size and put it on top of that light. I’d rather do that than have the stock launcher even having a chance of re installing itself
Wow cool which launcher are you using? Whats the stock launcher filename? I'm going to try to unlock the bootloader soon then I guess I'll learn how to dump the whole os and dump the boot.img I guess idk what im doing but ive done this before with mtk devices just not a tv.

yeah dumping/compiling is above my skill set. The launcher I use is Projectivy. I paid for the premium version to support the dev because I really like it, but the only feature premium adds is being able to choose a wallpaper from storage. Also the package name is going to always be listed below the name of the app when you are in settings>apps> highlighted app...... google tv launcher I removed with adb shell and command adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.google.android.apps.tv.launcherx if you end up disabling the google launcher I highly recommend also disabling set up wizard afterwards. Otherwise, the app will re-download and you will be playing whack a mole.
I just tried disabling the launcherx and it disabled the SETTINGS button on the remote which is a deal breaker. How do I fix this? I like using Nova Launcher instead of the stock launcher.
Hello good sir.
@TheMadScientist Hello good day mate. ;p So do u know how to get this working on google tv? I disabled the launcherx and it disabled the settings menu as well.
Thanks

Not really. When I looked into them was when they really started hitting the market. I had one of the 55 inch. But got rid of it pretty quick once I got my samsung
@TheMadScientist I plugged in my male to male usb and it never got detected plus sp flash tool i had isnt compatible with MT9612 MEDIATEK CHIP. Can u give some android 11 usb adb google tv advice? Is the mt9612 emmc or nand?
I got the bootloader unlocked but no root yet.
