well, now that the sdk is available, anyone care to revise their guess? i think now that we will told it will be out for the X by late february, but we'll actually get it by mid-late march, maybe into early april

That time frame sounds about right, in my opinion. Motorola has been pretty decent about getting updates out there, and I hate to sound like a broken record, but the real culprit for how long it'll take is going to end up being Verizon.

What about this update w/ Madden11? Why do that now with Gingerbread on the door step? I want Gingerbread NOW!

 

[Johnly]

Don't expect it. But if they push it, I will take it : )

given the slow update cycle moto appears to have, any guesses as to when we may see gingerbread for the droidx?

I'm thinking july 2011 (I'm serious), but I'm also wondering if they'll update it at all, as moto will have a newer better phone at that point.

They updated the Original Droid to 2.2, so you never know. I doubt the OD will get 2.3 before the X does.

I hear you, but it isn't on the "doorstep". We'll probably see it released OTA official at the end of Q1 2011 or later. As a result, this is a meaningful update if it includes the stability fixes. 2.2 has been running like a champ for me, with the exception of the WiFi issue and I'm hoping this release will rectify it.

I have to wonder when the X will get OTA and how long before that there is a leak.

Moto will announce, "Summer 2011" but will actually deliver sometime around xmas.

 

[ottscay]

I'd say late March at the earliest, probably April or even May. I doubt it will slip into summer unless something goes horribly awry.

 

[stabbedintheface]

I agree...if you are going to get it anytime soon it will be from Team Black Hat or another awesome set of devs

 

[dwt10]

Upgrade may 2011. Ill be on another company by then.if sanding gets better with updates and htc has a good phone for me ill be their. Unless motorola makes a phone without any hack preventions and vanilla android (that's what the droid 2 should have been)

 

[Bald Steve]

I for one will be keeping a close eye on the developer community for when this is rooted and ready to rock. Can't wait - It looks fantastic.

He's running the Apex 1.3 ROM with the GingerBread Theme. Its awesome sure as hell but NOT 2.3. Look at the Nexus S videos. Sick sick sick. They show alot of the new features and it makes my heart skip. Can't wait to get the real 2.3 on my phone.

This is the link http://www.droidforums.net/forum/fa...x-1-3-0-droid-x-running-running-fast-can.html

I suggest you take a look. We JUST got 2.2.1. How long do you think it will take for Moto/VZW to get a working 2.3 to us? From what I've seen rooted people will be loading it first anyways. With Z4root and the plethera of instructions, rooting is now stupid easy. So I did it and had my mind blown away again by this phone. Love it!

i say feb. or march 2011

 

[Bravozero]

There's a guy in the Fascinate forum that swears his buddy JUST got 2.3 on his DX today. Riiiggghhhtttt........ I'm sure if there were the slightest hint of getting it anytime soon, this forum would be extremely busy. And... as we just got the 2.2.1 update a few weeks ago, I doubt we will be seeing 2.3 anytime soon.

 

[mooserman]

2.3 won't be here until atleast febuary, verizon is really slow at that type of thing.

 

[jamesc]

Here we go again! When is Ice Cream coming?

 

[TheCowStir]

The OTA update says 2.3.xxxx however it isn't gingerbread of course... Thank you Verizon/Motorola for the confusion.
