Don't think VZW has approved one yet.

well links like this one are usually a pretty good sign.

Has anyone heard about an update for the Droid 2 Global?

**delrey1900** · 08-28-2011, 09:41 PM

It appears that the upcoming update only applies to the original D2, not the D2G.
Either they are waiting to see how the update goes for D2 before they release the Global or the Global isn't done yet.

Of course there is also the R2D2 which sadly I am not expecting to see the update. I hope I am wrong.

I was able to update my phone last night!

**delrey1900** · 08-30-2011, 08:36 PM

Ok, apparently the D2G is included as the update enhancements are posted. Let's hope this one goes smooth....

Looks like the soak went well!

**Falconguard** · 09-01-2011, 01:29 AM

Downloading now.

**lasher57** · 09-01-2011, 06:00 AM

In the process of installing now!

**BB4Casey** · 09-01-2011, 06:33 AM

I just got mine downloaded and it is sweet.

**phillyphreak** · 09-01-2011, 07:20 AM

Is it worth unrooting from the gb leak a while back? I wonder how long before this update can be rooted?

**LSUrugby** · 09-01-2011, 08:07 AM

NO! keep the GB leak and root. If for nothing else, you get wireless tether and can use titanium backup.

**pckid47** · 09-01-2011, 08:13 AM

im using a D2G. saddly i dont think todays update included D2G as i keep getting the massage that my device is up to date, yet im still on 2.2. i hope our update will take place within a couple of days or so

Downloaded and running on my D2, appears to be running fine.

Still can not connect to my Cisco/Linksys Wireless N Router.

WIll post if anything pops up.

Oh man I wish I didn't just install this. Now my phone looks like a Fisher Price toy. This whole new color scheme is ATROCIOUS!!! Blue everywhere, I hate blue, gray all over where it used to be a nice battery saving black. I also now have the latest Google Maps which I wasn't updating because of the stupid permanent search bar that wastes screen space when I can simply hit the menu button and search.

I didn't do any kind of backup... I'm guessing there's no easy way to go back?? I sooo hate this.

*EDIT - also, where the hell did the battery meter go?? I don't see the battery meter that shows for example 80% and whatnot. I only see how much battery is used by each process.

Any word on whether the R2D2 will get this update? I keep checking but it says it is up to date.

**d1c1ple** · 09-01-2011, 10:10 AM

D2G - no update yet here in N.E. FL

**smurfette8202** · 09-01-2011, 10:20 AM

no update on my d2g....aaaahhhhhh!!!!!!

**jfarling** · 09-01-2011, 10:27 AM

I downloaded and installed the leak last week, can someone tell me how to get back to the orgional? The instructions to get to the boot loader with froyo doesnt work with gingerbread.

I've been running the pre-rooted Blackhat Monster leak since April. Does this official update solve any of the bugs, like the LEDs not working properly?

One of the listed fixes is the notification light now working correctly when a message comes in. Not sure if that's what you're looking for.
