Oooooo ok

Sorry dont know MAC operating system names lol

Alright Delete all the update zips you have to than do this:

- Open Safari
- Navigate to "Safari" and then choose "Preferences"
- Choose the "General" tab
- Uncheck "Open Safe Files After Downloading"

Than redownload the file from the guide again try it and tell me what happens when you try to install.

And are you mounting the SD card from the droid and putting the Zip in the drive called "No Name"?

Swype!

Swype Beta is not working with 2.2. We will have to wait for the dev to update the program. It has been reported to them.

An uninstall and reinstall fixed the SWYPE beta

working just fine now

I deleted the installer after I installed the beta under 2.1. Help!

Ya, I did all that. I keep getting E:signtature verification failed

I guess I'll just wait

Thanks for all the help though, I really appreciate it. I think the link on the front page of droidforums.net might be bad.

akj27 - try downloading it from firefox. If you don't have firefox, just go download it, and then redownload the 2.2 update. I'm also on a mac and I always have to download .zip files with firefox for them to work properly. I don't know if safari is unzipping them for me automatically or what, but for whatever reason they work first time every time with firefox.

installed perfect everything works EXCEPT flash. what is a .apk file extension. and why can't i run it on my MD

Looking at the Froyo users guide, the Messaging app looks the same, however on the Droid, the page with a conversation shows the user icon in each message instead of just at the top (like it used to be and it shows in the guide). Is there a way to change this back to how it used to be?

 

[apastuszak]

Your browser is doing it

I'm using OS X. Does that change anything?

Your browser is automatically extracting the zip file into a directory. I forget how to turn that behavior off. If you can get to a terminal just type curl -O and paste in the URL. It will download and not unzip.

 

[scientifics]

Also, is there a way to get silent and vibrate modes back?

 

[A-Bomb]

Hey AKJ27 i sent you a PM with a new method

 

[thebourbonnflip]

this is really making me kinda pissed..after i installed froyo, i factory reset just to get everything FRESH, and behold..some apps that are PAID for are missing from my downloads section in the market. anyone with a cure?

 

[ConqSoft]

Some of my paid apps are showing up, some are not. I'm assuming it's because the developers haven't marked them as being 2.2 compatible or such, yet.

If i wanted to install the new rooted version that peter alfonso put out - I would need to go back to 2.0.1 or 2.1 and root then install that rom - Is that correct? or would it be better to wait to see if someone comes up with a root kit for 2.2?

 

[drummerboyphil]

i down loaded the update zip. but i tried to install it and i got the error message
e: cant open /cache / recovery/ command i really dont want to wait for the ota update
