Official Droid X Froyo update thread

i'm loving how my contacts now have the quick action buttons on them, and now my People widget in Launcher Pro allows for the quick action as well...awesome!
 
replaced some apps that VZ mentioned were updated and still failed! ugh? anyone else with root have any luck?
 
Anyone else having the issue from leaked 2.2 where some apps in Market weren't showing? I'm still having that with OTA 2.2...
 
screwed my phone up.

Was left unattended while installing, when i come back it was stuck on the motorolla M symbol. nothing else, noticed the slide tab vibrated when i touched that area, unlocked the phone, placed a call, and still M, so I think it loaded froyo but some video failure occured.

Note:
I was on the 2.1 after a 2.2 leak downgrade and this happened when I tried the leaked versions but on the first one I was able to get into recovery and clear cache and restore and it worked, this time I cant even do that.

Major Sigh... same exact outcome here. I was rooted... with no 2.2 leak or anything. No Roms ever.

Went to the de-brick your phone section and went through every step carefully. Now the bootloader is up and says "Service Req'd" amongst some other stuff.

Anyone?

swype is taking an obnoxious amount of battery power?

my phone was really studdery for the first 30 minutes or so, keep in mind.


so wait.......i was under the impression that the cooliris gallery was PART of froyo...but that doesn't appear to be the case.
 
Download finished, tried to upgrade and it came back with "Upgrade Failed"...

No other messages or anything...No special anything on thephone...I am rooted, and made 2 changes to the build.prop file, but thats it...

Anyway/where to look at a log file or something and see what caused it to fail ??

Same thing here. My X is also rooted. Stuck downloading it all over...
 
This 2.2 has all the same problems the "unofficial" had. Scrolling through screens showed the background jump in the "unofficial" and the official is doing the same thing. I'm worried the camera will freeze and force close on me like the unofficial did when I would use it. Not good Motorola and Verizon

I thought this was just me. Not nearly as smooth as i expected....


skyfire doesn't seem as smooth as it used to be either.

Anyone have pre/post benchmarks?

Before going to bed tonight, I checked this forum and realized 2.3.15 was available in CA. Had my X check for updates and Lo! there it was. So far, all is operational with some new quirks that I will investigate further tomorrow. Here's a timeline:

On 2.1 stock with LP+ and probably about 40 downloaded apps (that I will have to check out tomorrow)...

10:35 pm - did the "check for updates" ON WIFI from the X settings; got message ready to download

10:45 pm download completed

Install from 10:45-10:50 pm.

Restart with eye glaring for about 5 minutes. Slow recovery to my home screen, wallpaper and icons/widgets ... but all there.

Looking good!!!
 
Downloaded in under 5 mins. For those who can't get past the "checking for updates" boot leave WiFi on and do a regular powercycle. It will pop up immediately. This update is better than apple pie. Love the new Swype keyboard. DL the Adobe Flash and Gmail updates from AppBrain. No compatability issues. DISGUSTING fast. The scrolling with LP Pro is like butter. Someone asked for benchmarks:

Pre Froyo: 1268
Post Froyo: 1478 (!)

No hitches or problems whatsoever; was not rooted and did not have the pre-release version. I wasn't that excited about the update but now that its here, I couldn't be happier.

Only (minor) issue... how do I turn off accidental touch lock screen? Can't find the option in settings.

EDIT: I had my phone plugged on AC power during the update; suggest others do the same.

My screenlock is demanding a PIN now. The option to have nothing is greyed out and says set by administrator. I am using a 3rd party exchange server which i believe does not require this. any ideas?
 
Installation failed for the second time. Has anyone found a fix/solution? It would be greatly appreciated.
 
Does anyone have any issues with the wifi toggling in/ out connection. I had the same issue with the 2.2 leak.

I am. 2 factory resets and some battery pulls later and I still cant get it to work. 3G is sooooo sloooowww.
 
Have to ask.... those with problems were you rooted and/or rolled back from pre-release?
