Official 2.1 findings thread

[Adrynalyne]

Updates can't access the bootloader iirc.

Unless you mean the recovery screen.

Don't be so sure.


How else will they be able to flash the radio OTA?

I really wonder what VZW is going to do.

Probably nothing. I don't see this being a massive PR issue for them, since they can claim they never made official announcements of when, just that it will.

You and me both. I'm going over to the dark side though. I'm loading UltimateDroid now. I may rejoin the stock world in Android 3.0

VZW is claiming they are on schedule....I think they need to look at their calender apps. I mean the Droid has 2 of them, use one.

This is quickly turning into an iPhone MMS situation.

true, i'm just glad we didn't have to wait for a 3rd generation droid to be able to copy/paste.

So true. My thing right now, is if the small batch rolled out as planned how come it hasn't leaked to hear yet? Surely 1 of the users here got it...

I was using Smoked Glass for a couple of months and it was the best ROM I found. I loved it!! I'm not using it now because I needed to get a new Droid sent to me, and I figured I'd wait to root until after this update... but....

 

[ncc1701p]

The other thread was closed but I really liked Mr.Z's point: I can buy any android based device and put any firmware on it. Compared to the iphone. That was so well said I gave him props.

On another note I think that if we all turn our microwaves on at the same time, start boiling water, and wait for this rom .... Time will slow down. LoL

I kinda wanna root but i dont have any reason to root. My personal conspiracy theory is that those 2.1 updates were chosen and almost all of them have cooked roms on their Droids. Thats why no one ever had a link for it to download.. My 2 cents

 

[Amore514]

Does anyone know of a list of bug fix's in the 2.1 update 1 release? im hoping they fixed the email problem where the email settings get removed ever few days for us office users?

 

[screamster]

Anything new?
