**rsanchez1** · 03/02/2011, 03:22 PM

What's the progress on the script or video guide?

**rwhitby** · 03/02/2011, 03:27 PM

The script is ready in the other thread.

Use ./scripts/meta-sprint-pre2-2.0.1

Be watching webOSroundup.com tonight for some webOS Internals magic (I think it's what you've all been hoping for).

w00t! Thanks Rich!

I am going to attempt this tomorrow. I may have some questions mid-swap if that's ok.

Twitter will be the fastest way to get me if you are mid install.

Is there a way to get this running as 2.1?

Not until Palm releases 2.1 for the Pre 2.

Rich,

Your efforts and work in assisting the WebOS community over the past few months are unparalleled. This guide stands out as one of the best contributions we've ever received ranking right up there near the top along with Rod's work on Meta-Doctor!

Thanks so much,
Barry

So are tokens not an issue anymore, or did I just miss something?

**Kev1000000** · 03/03/2011, 03:20 PM

I am trying this tonight. I will report back with results.

Nope, they don't appear to be. If you are going from Pre minus to Pre 2, there are no tokens swapped in this process the Pre 2 will still have all of the tokens it shipped with. The only difference is the CDMA radio will be communicating with the Sprint network, which apparently doesn't care about the Tokens either.

So Sprint sees it completely as a Sprint phone and the HP webOS servers see it as an acceptable configuration of a Pre 2.

**Kev1000000** · 03/03/2011, 07:27 PM

Just so I am clear, this is the correct doctor for an unlocked GSM Pre 2 right? This is the doctor I should run after this procedure?

(NOTE: This question is only for people who ALREADY updated their Sprint Pre's to webOS 2.1)

**rwhitby** · 03/03/2011, 07:36 PM

You should follow the procedure on the wiki page. The script that you run as part of those instructions downloads the doctor you have identified, but also inserts the correct CDMA firmware for those devices that have not had the modem updated yet.

I already updated to 2.1 on my Sprint Pre-. I assume I didn't have to run the script. Is that not the case?

That is the case. However, others reading your post may assume it applies to them as well.

**Kev1000000** · 03/03/2011, 07:46 PM

Gotcha, thanks Rod. So the doctor I linked to is the correct WR 2.0.1 doctor I should use?
