    Installing OTA update after unofficial froyo

    Ok yesterday i finally decided to start messing around with my droid. seeing as how froyo was not released the 13th ota. yes i know it was just a roomer. anyways, to make it simple because i dont really know much yet about messing with my phone so this is the link to how i put froyo on my droid

    A Guide to get Froyo - for NON-ROOTED users

    i wasnt exactly happy with this so i then proceeded to do it with the latest froyo leak FRF84B (to my knowledge) here is the link. i followed instruction and used rom manager to do all this

    Motorola DROID Android 2.2 Froyo ROM FRF84B Leaked, Get it Now! | Gadgets DNA

    i am alot more happy with this. everything works on it so far.
    but my main question is. once the official foryo release comes out for dorid. will i be able to do the ota update? because a few people have said i will brick my phone if i do so
    thanks -josh

    you can always unroot and get the official OTA update even though it wont be as good as the custom ROMs

    You can do an official OTA but you will lose root. I'm not going to be updating to the OTA personally. Whoever told you it will brick it is misinformed.
    Android keeps going, and going.....
