DROIDX2 Gingerbread Update Appears to Be Ready, Newest Version of Blur Included

You are going to have to wait until GB gets root. Then use a bootstrap to get you into Clockwork Recovery. Its very simple and if you had no issues installing the GB update, you will have no problems installing a ROM.

It will be awhile before a custom ROM comes out, since GB was just released.

Also, your warranty will technically be voided, but you can always sbf back to stock and no one will ever know.

You returned a phone for THAT? How do you know that the beep is being generated by the Bluetooth headset and not the phone? My BT headset beeps like that but it is the headset doing it not the phone.

 

I think this was answered but I can't find it and don't want to go through 20 pages again... The ZIP file that was posted here is identical to the actual OTA update, right? I'm getting tired of waiting and would rather just go it manually if they aren't going to push it out to everyone within a day or two.

 

I decided to see if I would get the update overnight , it didn't come . So this morning I updated myself and couldn't be happier . The phone is 2x as fast . Before it would take 4 or 5 seconds to load an email. Now it loads my email in the blink of an eye . Also the new keyboard looks good , they shrunk the "." box next to the space bar . Now I'm looking forward to some custom roms .

 

Michigan still waiting....

 

Im waiting still in Pennsylvania and I have seen that others from PA already got it. Don't think it matters where u live.

I would rather do OTA tho...the wait shouldn't be this long for the supposed best network in america tho.

 

I'm the same way. I got my X2 from Best Buy 1 day after it came out...so if it was "first come, first serve" type of deal...I assume I would have gotten it Friday. I'm guessing it's just the luck of the draw. I must admit like some of the others on here,...the way is killing me too! I

 

still waiting in Connecticut

 

Update has nothing to do with when you bought phone. Most people who got it on Friday are part of a soak test. The rest is just luck.
