    Droid X running FroYo? [Breaking]



    Apparently there is a 2.2 build of FroYo floating around for the Droid X, and p3Droid over at MyDroidWorld has it! More news as it comes.

    Quote from p3Droid:
    No this is not a hoax, and your eyes are not deceiving you. This is a screenshot of the DroidX running [COLOR=#960000 ! important][COLOR=#960000 ! important]Android[/COLOR][/COLOR] 2.2 (Froyo). Not a lot of information is available but jump into the forum to see what I know and to share what you know

    What I know:

    ** Yes it still has blur
    ** No it does not have the new froyo homescreen
    ** It behaves and looks just like current system.

    Sounds like 2.1 with a 2.2 wrapper. I wonder if Motorola is having a problem integrating Blur into 2.2, so is going to tell everyone it's their version of 2.2 but it's really Android 2.1 underneath. Benchmarks will tell the difference.

    I think it's more like this: alot of the cool things that make Froyo so exciting were already included in the 2.1 release for the X. Going by the benchmark scores, it would seem to me that the X with it's current OS release is already using the new JIT, for example.

    In other words, I believe that the X's incarnation of 2.1 is alot closer to Froyo than any other device's 2.1 release.

    I wouldnt expect it to look different tho. Wont Froyo on the Inc still have Sense UI?

    No way. My original Droid benchmarks as good or better than my X does (my Droid has 2.2 and is OCed to 1Ghz). If the X is running currently running the JIT compiler the benchmarks would BLOW my Droid away!! There really not even in the same class when it comes to CPU and GPU. X with JIT will probably score 1500's + all day on Quadrant, without an OC. With an OC, forget about it!! The things a frickn' beast!!

    Droid X is not 2.2.
