DROID 2.1 Update thread.

i realise that but i just didn't know if me goin into the fancy underground workings of the phone voided it or not

You'll be fine, you're not rooting the phone, you're just loading the official update before its pushed to your phone OTA, if you ever had to take you're phone in to replace it under warranty, it would look the same as if you had waited to get the OTA link

Manually updated to 2.1, can't find Google Earth on Market!

I updated 2.1 manually using the download and instructions from this website. Everything seems to be here, except for finding Google Earth in Android Market. I thought as soon as I got 2.1 it would be available. Am I missing something?
 
I think something went wrong with my update to 2.1. I followed the instructions / video and everything was good until I rebooted. It's been over half an hour and my Droid is not booting past the Motorola logo. What's up with that? What should I do now? Please help.
 
2.1 fixed my battery indicator issue w/extended battery?

Well, it seems to be the case...

I have the Seidio extended battery, the gigundious one... And, have always had to restart the phone halfway through the day as it shows the battery is @ 10%/dead. After the restart, it goes back to say 70%. Daily ritual, and seems to be a well known quirk in the forums.

Well, since the 2.1 update yesterday, it now seems to be accurate. For the first time today, it lasted all day, when it sorta got low-ish, 60-70% I restarted and it came back 60-70%-ish... Interersting...

Anyone else?
 
Nope don't want that best waiting for the slim line if I keep the Droid. Incredible looks good to me
 
Incredible looks REALLY nice to me..don't get me wrong, love my droid, but just looks so nice!
 
Yeah, lotsa new things coming. I may jump droidship as as well. The Samsung is interesting as well as news of a large screened LG with a nice qwerty...

Nonetheless, this was cool to see working right finally.
 
If you try and manually install the update and it bricks you. And your Bork rooted take it back. Just tell them that you got the update but when it went to flash it your phone bricked.
 
I updated manually as well and Google Earth was one of the first apps that showed itself when I opened the market after upgrade.. perhaps try a search for just "Earth" and see if it shows up there... That's how its listed after being installed as well...
 
I tried doing this and after i selected the file from the boot menu, it ran for 2 seconds and then said it failed and then i had to reboot. Any ideas? I really want 2.1!
