User Rating4.50/5A few days ago Goggle officially announced Android 2.2 at Google I/O 2010 developers conference. There are reports of a few Nexus One owners receiving the automated update alert, however rollout is at a snails pace. If you’re impatient and want Froyo now follow the steps below to manually update Nexus One to Android 2.2:
Note: If you’ve Rooted your Nexus One you would have to revert back to the stock Android 2.1 in order to update using this manual install. I’m updating and will give results with video. Make a fast phone even faster plus ability to install apps to SD Card… incentive enough! See a list of what’s new in Android 2.2!

is this rooting my phone? is there any chance of bricking it? sorry for the dumb question.
Perfectly legit questions. No, its putting the official ROM that will be released on your phone early. Actually if you have Rooted your phone you have to go back to stock ROM to get this.
Oh, there is no 100% certainty it wont brick your phone.
always getting error (status 7):( can you help me please?
Had the same error. Turn your phone back on and be sure to the the downloaded file “update.zip” and to MOVE it to the root of the SD Card. So it reads “sdcard/update.zip”
done but same error
that was your solution?
wheres the flash??????????????/
Once updated search Google or the Android Market for “Flash” and Flash player 10.1 will be available for download. Use this link on your Android 2.2 phone to get it! http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
http://android.modaco.com/content/google-nexus-one-nexusone-modaco-com/309286/frf50-froyo-pre-rooted-update-zip/ that’s where you can get the flash dudes! mODACO RULEZZZ
So far so good.. Had to reinstall swype.. . But my question is, how do I move apps to sd card? The boxes are grayed out (even on new apps).. Any ideas?
You are right? Looking more into it…
App developers have to offer this. So I guess non have done this so far as there wasn’t an option for this yet. Maybe google maps or another google app will have this option?
Very cool! Much faster. Flash games up and running (install Flash 10.1 from market). I also had to reinstall Swype and re-enter some logins. Waiting for developers to allow apps to move to SD-card…
Also getting an Error 7, even though the update.zip file is in the root directory. There must be something wrong with the update.zip file.
Also noted ab error of: E:Can’t open /cache/recovery/command
before it opens the update.zip file.
The finding update, opening update, and verifying update all work, but it bombs out during the Installing update with an “assert failed”.
What app are you using to rename to “update.zip”? I used Astro so I can see the while name and ensure its not named “update.zip.zip”
Using the windows “rename” command. It does not produce a “update.zip.zip”, just a “update.zip”.
The zip file is renamed in the windows environment before it is copied to the root of SD card on the N1.
Are you using stock Nexus One ROM or Rooted?
Using a stock Nexus One.
Does this work on an HTC Desire?
The phones are identical, I’m truly not sure but think not as it seems Google plays favoritism to its Google Phone. It has actually received the late two updates first.
Will this update work on the N1′s for the AT&T frequencies, or is it only for the TMobile flavor? (Thought I’d read that somewhere, now I’m paranoid!)
I was able to update my Nexus one, no problem because I was at stock Ere27 firmware. So far it’s been good, very happy with the updates….even with the Flash on the browser…i thought Steve Jobs said it would explode on my device and destroy the world…but hey it didn’t turn out so bad. Heres a video of my nexus one running flash on the browser – http://www.theborgcollectives.com/2010/05/flash-on-nexus-one-browser.html
I take it that your link is no longer valid? getting…
E:Can’t open /cache/recovery/command
If you’re having problems downloading the update file from the link above, you can get it from here too (file should be about 45mb):

Can you post md5 or sha1 sum for update.zip file to make sure it’s downloaded intact?
thx
HI,
while i am installing Update.zip, i am getting error saying, File have failed valid signature, installation abord.
Kindly help
I am not getting the triangle with the exclamation mark in it. I copied the file to my sd card. turned off the phone , held down volume and power at the same time . It offers the recovery option. Selected it but then I just get the nexus X . I tried to proceed. I held the volume up and power but I wasnt given the option to apply sd card update.zip. It does say flash sd card. Can anyone tell me why? or what I need to do?
@Manda Question… have you not received the official over-the-air update from Google yet? I received it about a week ago.
Regarding where you’re stuck, where is update.zip saved on your SD card? This is important.
please help me, can u post how to upgrade android for 7″ APad iWeb (android platform)? thank u very much
