Big Problem Installing 2.1, I know I'm not the only one.

[hatboysam]

A while back I rooted my droid to install the European browser so I could get multitouch. Now when I go to install 2.1, the system check fails because of the different Browser.apk. Is there any way to undo this hack and get the old browser back so I can upgrade?

I'm sure I'm not the only one who installed the multitouch browser early.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Did you already unroot your phone before you tried to update to 2.1?

[hatboysam]

No I didn't. Can I do this without wiping my phone?

Not sure whether it will wipe or not, but you MUST unroot to install the official 2.1

Can't unroot, trying to install the 2.0.1 update file that would unroot results in the same error as trying to install 2.1

try the dmupdater method to unroot.

I have only read bad things about DMUpdater. I seriously doubt I am the only person who rooted and installed the milestone browser (instructions here How To Hack Multitouch Onto Your Motorola Droid - Motorola droid multitouch - Gizmodo) Can someone else who did this help me out?

Let me try to assure you that DMupdater is probably the quickest and easiest way to go back to stock. I've done it 3 times. You may have to do a factory reset afterwards to get your voice capabilities back but that doesn't always happen and a soft reset does not lose your apps.

Whatever you decide, good luck.

What is rooting? Is it another way to say hacking? And is it something I should look into? I've got the 2.0.1version and I wanna update, where and how u guys getting the new update?
