2.1 ESE53 will be Official Release on the VZW Motorola Droid

[nerdkill]

People who type lulz type it because it fits a ridiculous post

1. This is not ATT.
2. Motorola is not Apple, and does not code the software. I am almost certain that Apple does not bend over for ATT for software approval either.
3. VZW made the choice to take this long in testing, and to turn down previous builds.
4. Its VZW that gives the go ahead for OTA.
5. Motorola has been providing builds for almost two months now to Verizon with them turning up their nose.


So, hmmm, who is the party that is at fault for this update being delayed.


Hmmmmm...maybe I should sleep on that one....its not entirely clear....maybe....VERIZON?

if that's true it's very interesting. how do you know all of that? proof?

I refuse to google for you. All of that is easy to come by knowledge.

how about just one link. do you always get so upset with the internets?

im just curious as to why a guy on his couch in detroit can build a better rom quicker than they can build a better update? im not hatin im just sayin.

Well the guy in detroit doesn't have to build a perfect OS, because he only deploys it to what, maybe 2 thousand people? and the people who install it didn't buy it from him... so he has no responsibility for the wellbeing of their phones. Not to mention that the amount of errors in 1 million would be significantly higher than 2 thousand...

I hate to break it to you but the guy on his couch built a better OS for millions of people... and it works... yet these clowns can't even get the simple things right. It's called bureaucracy.

Politics and incompetence at highest levels. Many times corporate departments will deliberately fiddle faddle with things for months so that expectations are set as low as possible. Bonus levels could be reached if they actually worked more than 50% of the time they spent in the office.

Let's see if they actually fixed the SMS "hours ago/yesterday" bug that plagues the SMS area of the phone.

The guy on his couch didn't build anything. Compiling a kernel takes about 15 minutes give or take. Thats about the most 'building' the rom cooks out there do, with some very FEW exceptions.

I agree... While these roms are wonderful, they didn't actually build them. They got their hands on them and did some tweaking and adjustments. That is alot easier than actually designing and building the entire rom.

What's good about the ese 2.1 roms that are out there is that if they can get their hands on them and do their tweaking, they can get them to us quicker. i wouldn't be surprised if they are leaked on purpose so many of us can do the testing for them.... LOL

[Magdroid]

I know I probably shouldn't respond..but how can you say the "guy on the couch" built a better ROM than Motorola did...when Motorola's 2.1 ROM hasn't even been released yet?
