Out of interest if you put the dload folder on your SD card and power up normally the whole process will run through to completion (the fresh screen configuration request) without touching anything and no battery removal.
It will boot twice on it's own and after the second time give OK update completed.
Remove the SD card and power off and then on for the final boot.
Well it did for me and I was quite surprised!

Flashed 6 hours ago and no issues at all.
It's running very sweet!!!!!!

S7V100R001C57B111

I flashed my Telstra TTT (the Australian version of the S7) last night with the Norwegian firmware and my experience was different from yours. I did it with a blank 1G SD card with just the dload folder. The process wasn't as easy as you described but went more like that described for the Indonesian firmware, i.e. got the progress bar which got to OK, at which point the only way to switch off was to remove the battery. Repeated the process as suggested in the Indonesian thread, and eventually did get 2.2 running.

The device has been operating ok, not significantly quicker or slower than before, and GPS fix took as long/short (minute or so inside house).

One problem I got today though: I used it to browse the internet while on the bus to work, and shut it down before I got off the bus. What happened was however that the device automatically powered on again after shut down (i.e. went through the IDEOS logo thing), and I had to repeat the shut down process three times before it stopped restarting.

Does anyone else get the same problem?

Further update: just found another surprise, this time a really nice one! The S7 sold by Telstra in Australia is locked to the Telstra network, and mine is no exception. Telstra charges A$100 to unlock the tablet. I just found that the Norwegian firmware has unlocked the tablet for me! Perhaps it is not really unlocking the tablet, but that the firmware is not checking the lock for any of its functions. But the effect is the same.

I am happy!

Does this version fix the issue with the light sensor?

I'm going to to do a fresh flash tomorrow to check the process and will report back.
I'm still running without any issues.
Onlock is a real bonus cool:

Does anyone else get the same problem?

I've had that problem occasionally with multiple firmwares - Singapore 2.1, Indo 2.2, and I think also the original Best Buy 2.1. Have not tried Norwegian 2.2 yet

i made a customized clockwork version... no need for updata.app just flash with clockwork. link in my sig.

For some reason CW refuses to work on my device.
It won't do a backup and won't go into recovery mode either.
All I get is a fresh ROM flash no matter what keys I press.
Maybe I have a bad recovery flashed so fastboot would fix this!
But it flashes OK from SD card dload method!!!!???

Don't know why my experience was different. Anyway it doesn't matter now as I do get froyo. One theory my wife puts it to is that you had the Indo 2.2 on the S7, which changed the behavior when it sees dload.

By the way I think I've found the cause of my shutdown problem : it looks like my S7-2.2 has difficulty shutting down Widgets, including the clock/weather one that came with the Norwegian rom. The 3g watchdog widget would cause the same to happen. Once I stop all Widgets I can shutdown with no reboots. At least for the few times today...

Install went fine on my Telstra S7, SOC rooted fine, restored all my apps and data with Titanium Backup an- HOLY CRAP WAS THAT NOISE MY LAPTOP'S HARD DRIVE???
Seriously, it just made the most horrific noise...
Anyway, GPS works, radio works, both cameras work, battery life while sleeping is also excellent, nothing so far I've found bad about this ROM so far, will keep you posted.

diffrences between this and S7V100R001C57B112?

thanks

nevermind, i think i found the answer. it's SDCARD mounting issue:
in S7V100R001C57B111, when SDCARD is mounted (i.e. after it's been removed from PC as storage), the whole S7 system re-initializes.
in S7V100R001C57B112, the above issue no longer persists =)
