[OTA LEAK] VZW Droid 3 Update 5.7.894 From Staging Server

---

Hi Guys,

As promised here is the actual OTA leak .zip pulled from a staging server on 11/03. This needs to be installed via your STOCK RECOVERY, this doesn't work in Safestrap or Koush's CWRecovery.

[ WARNING: I want to repeat my earlier warning that if you plan on installing this: HAVE A ROOT KEEPER INSTALLED (mount_ext3.sh / loadpreinstall.sh modified to set suid on the su binary on boot). CURRENT 1-CLICK ROOT WILL NOT WORK. If you search the Bionic boards there are many users asking for help where they lost root applying a similar OTA leak like this one for their phones. I would hate for the D3 community to be in a similar situation. ]


** I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY ILL EFFECTS OF THIS OTA LEAK OR IF YOU BRICK YOUR PHONE -- WHEN IN DOUBT, DON'T USE THIS **

** And, I know that the file name is our current version. It's something Verizon does with the patch filenames where they use the version of the OS that it applies to.


Details of the update:
BUILD ID: 5.5.1_84_D3G-64
BUILD DATE: Mon Oct 31 11:31:36 CDT 2011
BUILD VERSION FULL: Blur_Version.5.7.894.XT862.Verizon.en.US
BASEBAND VERSION: N_03.18.2EP

md5sum: 93f535d986b94a810a00530ea722ea69

[ Edit 11/07: added the baseband version ]

Thank you for sharing this.

Do the fastboot files that we have still work after applying this? My main concern is that it could replace the signing key making it impossible to downgrade to a rootable version.

wonder why the name of file you update is 5.6.890?

Does anyone know what this file improves or breaks?

Droid 1 Rooted (ChevyNo1 0.9MV Kernel, LGB2.6)
Droid 3 Rooted (Stock Kernel, Custom lite De-bloat)

Hashcode does this update also include the update to the kernel?
Thanks.

Yes, it's the full untouched update from the staging servers.

Thank you. And I'm assuming I need to be on the motoblur rom as well?

Probably, not 100% sure but i think you need to be on motoblur fully bloated. Make sure you do a forever root before you update tho cause word is the moto/vzw have patched the exploit.

is there a changelog or does anyone know any of the changes with this update?
