Official Droid X Froyo update thread

Don't forget to get the Gmail update from the market too. Installing it now, DL took forever even over wi-fi. The servers must be getting pounded!
 
so..im on the leaked 2.2 from a month or so ago. If i grab this as an update.zip, can i just overwrite the leaked wth the legit?

is there REALLY anything different?
 
Downloading now. Anyone know if we need to unroot...or if we can move SU from Bin to XBin to stay rooted yet? I rooted with Easy Root if it matters...

Well, I'm on the previous leaked 2.3.9 and they weren't bluffing with their threats....no update available for me.

I believe I will wait and see what you smart guys come up with to allow us early adopters to upgrade to the official OTA. I have all the files necessary to manually go back to 2.1 but I don't want to do that unless it is absolutely necessary....

patience....

Cheers,

I unrooted while I am waiting for the download. if it runs and updates ill reroot when its done to see if it works. This is taking forever!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Got and all is good. Now just need to figure out how to root (I know I saw those instructions around here somewhere)...
 
Done. Froyo tastes good.


EDIT: COLORED LABELS IN GMAIL!


OH and since there will be a ton of people in this thread, i shall shamelessly ask, when the gallery is cued up from the camera app, WHY does it default to my OLDEST picture and not the ones i just took!?
 
so, I do need to unroot before updating??? Do I need to uninstall apps that required root?? eg. barnacle wifi, etc??
I know I wont be able to use these apps, but I just want to make sure I can update without a hitch... sorry for the noob ?s

Me either
*twiddles thumbs
 
Tried the update again after unrooting and still got the update failed...did some searching and during the update process if you hit the SEARCH button, you get a console like display of what its doing.....

Mine ends with

Code:
Verifying current system
assert failed: apply_patch_check("/system/build.prop","76f714f20045407075a08d1f8634dbadf689166c5","448243fe4bdffdd0818e81286821889880d37752")
E:Error in /cache/Blur_Version.1.13.604.MB810.Verizon.en.US.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.

So Im guessing they did some kinda CRC check on everything and since I modified the build.prop it didnt like it and screwed the upgrade??

Damn..Hope I made a back up of that file, but since I unrooted to test that, Guess I will ahve to root again, make that change back in the build.prop, and then unroot again and try the upgrade...

/argh!
