Droid Charge ED2 system update

**Phil Nickinson** · 05-14-2011, 07:53 AM

A software change was made to the Media Hub application to prevent downloading content over the 3G network. This application will only work in the 4G network or when using Wi-Fi to ensure quality and speed.
A pop up message was added to the Media Hub application to inform customers of the size of the download when in a 4G coverage area before downloading.

This is the only "enhancement "??

What is the media hub anyway?

Pretty much heard the phone was being released on Sat and assumed I'd have an OTA when waking up... Correct. I assumed if there was no OTA I'd goto the nearest store to replace mine due to the silent call issue.

So for me here's what it has done:
-Silent Calls: 100% resolved. I was easily able to replicate it previously and have attempted to all morning long.

-4G/3G is faster. 4G was fast no doubt, just a hair off from the TB. 4G Test: In a fringe area here 3G: 640 kbps/499 kbps (no numbers on prior but it felt like circa 1997 AOL dialup) 1X: 128kbps/up test failed (Awesome I caught it)

-Reception a tad up. I complained about it in another thread where my wife's kin would always be 2 bars up on my. Now it's 100% of the time only 1 bar.

-Data coverage. Seems my phone is more more willing to jump around 4G/3G/1X, a little different form before but whatever.

But I've already had to pull the batt once since and a dark screen out of nowhere..

2 updates here.

Had one pending when I awoke which I ran. Now I manually ran the one above from system updates...

yes. nothing is working - it was rooted via GingerBreak before OTA Update

**kjguy43** · 05-31-2011, 07:25 PM

I just got mine and it still E1, i take it that is good

**Slick650** · 06-03-2011, 03:04 AM

Is there a way to prevent the annoying update message. I don't want it so I can root my phone.

**Cruiserdude** · 06-04-2011, 10:20 AM

Once you root it you can use a root file manager to change a few filenames from ED1 to ED2 so it won't bother you, you can search around for that. But honestly Gingerbreak is very easy to use if you're still ED1, and I still get the OTA update messages, but I just ignore them. Until I decide for sure that I'm keeping the phone and that is has no issues, I like the fact that it keeps telling me ED2 is available. If I have a problem, I don't even need to be near a computer to take it to Verizon, I can just uninstall my root apps and do the update without having to be near a computer.

I just got my phone and don't plan on rooting my phone for some time, 6 months atleast.
If I let the phone update to ED2, do I loose the option to root?

It's a shame that update didn't fix the GPS.

What is the point in posting this 5 months after the update, and especially four months after the previous post.

This brings us to a greater point:

Why is this thread still stickied?
