[Official] R2-D2 [D2] Owners Thread

[AngDroid]

I was not planning on getting one but am/was a Star Wars fan and I "happened" to walk by a Verizon store at the mall. I was kind of surprised they had them in stock. Needless to say, I walked out with one.

My original interest in this thread was, my GF's Son wanted one bad, So I helped him get it. Since he is on my account, It's almost like it's mine I guess I have one in the family now.

His R2D2 arrived friday afternoon. FedEx next day FREE shipping. He is Stoked !!! He's a big Star Wars Fan. And an up and coming Android Dev.

So this means, my Droid 1 comes back into my hands once again.

Mine will be arriving Monday... I will most likely root, but keep the original star wars rom. Just want to be able to keep using all my root apps that I have previously purchased for my Droid.... until then Im just patiently waiting on the porch watching for the fedex truck... Hurry up.

Well, go ahead and add me to the list! I'm a proud owner of an R2D2 Droid 2 : )

I don't have an R2-D2 Droid 2 but, I do have a small request for those who have one & have rooted it. I'm looking for 2 of the Live Wallpapers that aren't located in /system/app. I'm looking for the "3D Millennium Falcon" & the "The Empire Strikes Back" Live Wallpapers.
They're shown/listed in this video

If anyone has root & can somehow extract the apk's, I'd greatly appreciate it

Mine should arrive on Monday as well. This will be my first smart phone experience.....I have no idea what I was thinking? I can barely send a text message!

I had an X and gave that to my brother. Now I have this and love it. It seems faster than the X.

I just got my droid 2 R2 edition on Friday. I just came from an iPhone and decided to make the switch to Verizon after seeing that this phone was coming out. So, I will be asking questions on here, and hopefully, people can help out!

Such as this: Does anyone know how to turn off the facebook contacts on it, but still have the pictures show from their facebook accounts?

Been having trouble but playing around with it I have learned a lot so far!

I would love to have one, but no money = no way.. Unless family chips in together to buy me one for my birfday.

I received my R2D2 D2 on Friday! I ordered it at 11:30 central time on the 29th! It is my first Android based phone after going through a couple of blackberries. It is taking me some getting used to but I'm getting there! I am really like the Android system, but I love R2! I don't know if I'll root mine or anything else, simply because I never have before. I have actually been surprised that they haven't sold out yet, but then again I guess a lot of people upgraded with the X or regular D2 came out. I saw an R2D2 D2 listed on EBay for something like $1,200 already! Craziness!
