Official Droid X Froyo update thread

**razorwire** · 09-21-2010, 11:34 PM

Downloading now. Anyone know if we need to unroot...or if we can move SU from Bin to XBin to stay rooted yet? I rooted with Easy Root if it matters...

**av8rdude** · 09-21-2010, 11:34 PM

Well, I'm on the previous leaked 2.3.9 and they weren't bluffing with their threats....no update available for me.

I believe I will wait and see what you smart guys come up with to allow us early adopters to upgrade to the official OTA. I have all the files necessary to manually go back to 2.1 but I don't want to do that unless it is absolutely necessary....

patience....

Cheers,
Scott

Posting from my phone now, update went off without a hitch. I wasn't rooted before

**RomanSoulfire** · 09-21-2010, 11:40 PM

...failed... gulp...

**geeforce1** · 09-21-2010, 11:40 PM

Got and all is good. Now just need to figure out how to root (I know I saw those instructions around here somewhere)...

**trong** · 09-21-2010, 11:44 PM

I'm a failure too!

**tdrus1** · 09-21-2010, 11:44 PM

Done. Froyo tastes good.

EDIT: COLORED LABELS IN GMAIL!

OH and since there will be a ton of people in this thread, i shall shamelessly ask, when the gallery is cued up from the camera app, WHY does it default to my OLDEST picture and not the ones i just took!?

**jgunzz** · 09-21-2010, 11:45 PM

so, I do need to unroot before updating??? Do I need to uninstall apps that required root?? eg. barnacle wifi, etc??
I know I wont be able to use these apps, but I just want to make sure I can update without a hitch... sorry for the noob ?s

**intriken#ac** · 09-21-2010, 11:46 PM

its currently failing for me and im rooted

**Callindril** · 09-21-2010, 11:46 PM

Tried the update again after unrooting and still got the update failed...did some searching and during the update process if you hit the SEARCH button, you get a console like display of what its doing.....

Mine ends with

Code:

Verifying current system
assert failed: apply_patch_check("/system/build.prop","76f714f20045407075a08d1f8634dbadf689166c5","448243fe4bdffdd0818e81286821889880d37752")
E:Error in /cache/Blur_Version.1.13.604.MB810.Verizon.en.US.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.

So Im guessing they did some kinda CRC check on everything and since I modified the build.prop it didnt like it and screwed the upgrade??

Damn..Hope I made a back up of that file, but since I unrooted to test that, Guess I will ahve to root again, make that change back in the build.prop, and then unroot again and try the upgrade...

/argh!

Mine fails too… I rooted temporarily to remove some bloatware… maybe it's searching for some of VZ's apps to update… i will try putting them back

**Super Turtleman** · 09-21-2010, 11:49 PM

Had my Froyo by 12:10 am EST. *Yawn* So, where's Gingerbread???

lol Had to say it...you knew someone would. rofl

**Tzvi** · 09-21-2010, 11:49 PM

Well the second time seemed to work a little.... um... better for me. I believe it installed Froyo, but I can't tell as I can't get past the Droid X eye.

Nevermind, it just went away. (Took several minutes) I have Froyo. At no point did I unroot. I had renamed some of the APKs in the /system/apps folder, and renamed them back after my first failure, but no clue if that is what solved it.

Good luck everyone.

**g1toevo678** · 09-21-2010, 11:49 PM

just snapped some indoor shots and it's a huge improvement from before, and the onscreen shutter button helps tremendously.

anyone plan on doing a factory reset after the upgrade? haven't noticed any issues with the upgrade so am going to just leave it as it is.

So far so good. Got it at 12:01. New slide to unlock. Small issue with mail. Overall great.

**oulaird** · 09-21-2010, 11:52 PM

I'm not rooted, downloaded and installed and all i get is the motorolla M. it has been 20 minutes

**albokay** · 09-21-2010, 11:53 PM

Unrooted and update went thru perfect. 2.2 2.3.15en.US version is on.

Now I have to reroot and see if that works.

Droid EYE did take a long time to go away but it did.

**snppr22** · 09-21-2010, 11:54 PM

Completed the update from stock phone and I cant keep the phone connected to WiFi. Same network I am doing this post from, and same network that worked on 2.1. Also, when WiFi boots it does not connect to 3G. Anyone else with the issue? Doing a reset now.
