DROID 2.1 Update thread.

The file gets deleted after it's installed, if you haven't been writing other things to your sd card, it should be recoverable though...

If you're feeling slightly daring you can try to recover it. There should have been an update.zip written to your card as part of the upgrade.

SBF your phone to 2.0.1 then re update. Should work.

Considering it sounds like he's running stock android, I don't know if he'd know how to do all that...

I think it was just reported on adroidforums.com that if you lose it, you may not get it back.

I wrote the guide on it...

Also DARN.

That would be terrible news, someone who doesn't know what they're doing trying to help the rest of the community, and ends up losing the update all together..

That's exactly what happened.

That's exactly what happened.

Don't worry bud. You'll be able to get it again in a few days once someone else pulls the update.zip. Hope is not lost!

I still don't understand why when clicking on a notification in Facebook launches the browser and goes to Facebook mobile instead of just using the application itself...

That's just how the facebook app works right now. They haven't developed very many features into it yet. Give it time, I'm sure we'll see more features, like notifications and stuff eventually.

Actually, if there are 10,000 delivered today, out of a total of one million, that means each of us has a 1% chance. The relevant statistical test indicates that if 268 of us agree to report if we get updated, there would be a 90% chance we would see at least one report.

Weren't a million droids sold in the first month? I think there may be more than 1 mil now.. I bet we'll still see the update.zip tonight.

 

[entwined82]

I think its at 1.25 mil in 70something days. I forget the exact figure.

lol it wasnt me that received the update. it was another user.

he tried to get the update.zip by reflashing his phone back to 2.0 stock. the update never came back.

leads me to believe it was a update push from verizon directly. its probably not even on a server per se.

I'm sure it is. But they probably have some sort of checking mechanism. If you accept the update, your checked off the list and don't get asked to do it again. If you aren't checked (and you are in the current roll-out) you get bugged until you do do it.

So, since he rolled back, he was already checked off, so he won't see the update again...unless...did he try going into the settings to check for a System Update?

He tried everything. Didn't work. Rebooted, went to upgrade screen, etc.

Guess he's been checked off forever then. He could either complain to VZW about some..mysterious...phone reseting...problem? Or just wait for someone else to get the update.zip...or use a file recovery program.

I'm sure he'll survive a bit until somebody releases the update.zip.

gotta give credits to the guy for trying, thank you sir

Well, I ran checkin (*#*#checkin#*#* on dialpad) and nothing for me. Hoping for 1/9,000 (/1.3 million ) tonight.

Tried the recovery also, nope.

He did have it. He seems to be a loyal user at phandroid and he had a screen shot to prove it.

It's like waking up on xmas morning to see the gifts under your tree then having them disappear in front of your eyes. Sad..

So, does the next group of updates go out tonight at midnight? Is the plan at least?

Think so. Like 9,000 people.
