ok i have read up on this and it is got to be a cover up for verizon to fill in there own seciruty issues break root,no tether, and probably many more . and what is this about wireless alert system? ? anyway my phone automatically downloaded the update yesterday but i am not gonna install it .. it alerts me every two hrs . my question is where does this update get stored when downloaded so i can wipe it out ? i am lucky that my dx2 doesnt have alot of the issues i have read that other users have . so i like my phone the way it is other then the bootloader being locked ! so can any one help with where that file would located . thanks very much .

Your first question: Wireless Alert System is the Emergency Alert System for phone. You'll probably get tests every now and then but its a pretty important feature.

ok I wasnt sure about it . it seem kinda shady . also do you think the update will break any kind of hotspot/tethering app or hack . say foxfi or if you have used radio comm , or say on the dx2 you can turn ur hotspot on then use the dialer to dial *#*#4636#*#*and toggle ur radio and it actually starts workin . I figured they would close the gap

I'm betting that's the main reason why they are releasing the update. I for one am going to stick with my custom rom.


Verizon: "we arent goign to issue an update for the droid x2 because it is getting a little old and we arent going to carry it much longer."
Customers: "we want an update too!"
Verizon: "ok heres a wireless tether patching update, enjoy!"
