    Do you have to be rooted to get Froyo?

    I tried doing a search before posting this question but I could not find anything that seemed relevant.

    Here a lot of people have Froyo but I am not sure how to get it.

    Thanks
    Mitch

    Interesting question. You basically do the same things you would do to get rooted. Even though you don't end up with root access on your phone you'd still be voiding your warranty.

    If you apply a rom or theme - backup first!
    If you don't know how to backup...Stop until you do.
    hint: I name my backups like this: sg6.0_20100428 or ss4.2_20100626 to easily find them later. rom and date.

    The sticky thread in this forum? It talks about apps, I did not see where it discusses installing Froyo.

    So it is not being offered by Verizon yet?

    Still debating if I want to root my phone or not.
