Android 2.2 - Froyo

[RW-1]

As I have just used SPR to go to froyo, I can tell you that by making a backup first, if I had any issues I can go back to stock 2.1 with no issues.

In fact, while I only wanted froyo, I ended up rooted, wih froyo, because I hve the ninja and astro now shows me mnt/sdcard...

Okay...I'm waiting (patiently..I think) for the OS 2.2 update. I really get confused when I read the postings on this forum when you power users discuss this problem and that when I haven't even seen the updated OS. This happened with 2.1...posters were complaining about problems; when I finally got the update OTA, everything has worked fine, no problems.

Are you guys getting Beta versions? Anyway, I was at a Verizon store Saturday to replace my daughter's phone and asked the guy helping us about 2.2. He said it was comming. I asked when...he said "I don't know, Verizon has told us"

I asked about what's improved and he basically gave the same info I get here, then I asked about the "tethering" feature to varify that it's the ability to use the Droid to connect my WiFi netbook to the internet. He said, yes...will Verizon offer it? "I don't know" will it be free..."I don't know"

so that's my contribution ... thanks for the interesting reads...if not confusing....r3 :icon_eek:

I followed this thread for like the first 70 pages but not there are too many to read to catch up. Sorry if this has been answered but is there a way to fix the Google Maps glitch where it keeps saying there is an update even though I have the latest version? Thanks

This worked for me.

Is anyone having issues with the phone locking up? It seems like whenever it attempts to sync the phone slows down to a bog and then locks up. I understand this happens as soon as you're done installing. However I'm on day two and it's continuing to do it. Any ideas?

Re: Question on 2.2.

Lol, if you're rooted, you have no warranty. The solution? Unroot before bringing it in to vzw and all of a sudden, you have your warranty again. Easy as that.

I still don't know how that happened to you. I'm moving this thread in with the other Froyo threads. This didn't need it's own thread.

We are consolidating Froyo threads. With the new release of Froyo please comment on that thread. This thread is closed.
