Hello, I found these instructions on how to update my new Incredible to version 2.2, Manually Update Your Droid Incredible to Android 2.2 (Froyo) | Android Phone Fans

is this safe? Is there an easier way than this? Thanks in advance!

Are you rooted? If so, the update will probably have the effect of un-rooting your Dinc. Having the newer OS is worth the time it would take to root your phone again, after installing the update.

It is as stock, non-rooted incredible......

What exactly does this mean? Can I just follow the steps in the 2.2 update instructions safely?

Sure - you're still stock, so you've nothing to worry about.
