DROID 2.1 Update thread.

[Roy Aguilera]

I'll believe it when i see it
we've been told soon since 2.01 and now it's the 30th and all the sudden poof
here's 2.1 ya ya i just wont believe till i have it on my droid

Seriously, with all due respect don't believe me. I didn't ask for anyone to believe me.
You can believe whatever you want.

Then it's true... You DO have it!

Really, Im happy for you guys that have been waiting so long for this.... I have been on 2.1 for a long time though.... lol

I agree. This is nice and all....but I don't see any reason this is better than Cyanogenmod or UD or BB or anything. No reason for me to head back to stock.

Btw, anyone else notice it was ESE81 (are my eyes just bad?)? I wonder what it has to offer asides from stuff that's already available out there in the ROM-verse.

Over on Droidforums.net, someone is reporting only *3* screens for the Droid at 2.1.

Still the very real possibility of an other failure in the software.
If they start rolling out the 200,000 a day, then I'll believe it.

Its about time!

Lets hope this thing really goes!

That picture is cool and all, but didn't the UK update happen yesterday? Without the Verizon Wireless logo visible at the bottom of the phone, I just can't believe that. For all we know, that could have come from France on a Milestone. I'm just sayin'.

Looks totally different to me.
Anyways, too much negativity here. I'm out.
Last post in this thread, unless it gets out of hand and it gets locked.

I'm excited! However, I'm not going back to stock just yet. I'll wait it out and see where this goes. I'm quite happy with my rooted Droid. I'll see what happens as far as ROM updates go over the next couple of weeks. Unless someone reports something previously unknown and super spectacular that came with the OTA...

If anyone got it, are there still only 3 home screens?

 

[rob.rojas55]

I got the update. I'm still playing with it. Live wallpapers are dope!!!!

 

[mjesenovec]

[pops.comp]

Proof?

10char

 

[generic.imitation]

Animated gifs working now?

 

[desecr8r]

I should get an automatic promotion, or an honorable mention for being the first to break the news...

Maybe it would be good to provide everyone with instructions (or a link) on what to do if the update arrives so they may capture the update.zip file before the update is applied.

If I understand it, you have to get the notification, allow the update to be pushed to the phone, but not install it. Copy the file off the SD card, then reinsert and reboot the phone.

I'll aslo assume (can someone confirm) that a minimum ammount of space is needed on the SD card to allow the update to go through.

You should be SHOT for not providing us with an update.zip. You FAIL.

How many screens?

 

[SparkyXI]

How many screens?

Only 3 screens from multiple reports.

Only 3 screens from multiple reports.

Worthless update then. Why does the Milestone now have 9? Jeez...


Oh well. Another reason to stay rooted.
