    Droid update

    Alright, first off, I'm pretty new to rooting and whatnot. I've been doing some reading (have I ever) and have read that the new update messes with your preexisting root. I'm running 2.3.3.

    Can anyone let me know the answer before I go and update my phone?!?--Which I still haven't gotten the update for. What exactly would it change if it does?..And how would I go about going around the update if it is infact a problem?!?

    Thanks!

    If you're just rooted you can update but you will lose root. If you deleted system apps or have clockwork installed then the update will fail.
