i recently got an eris from a friend and wiped it clean.
now i read i wont receive an update from verizon for the last official 2.1 software anymore. so i don't know how to update my phone.
i read on here that the only way to do this is to root my phone and download a file of the newest OS software. i don't know how to do any of this. can someone help?

Lots of posts on how to root. I'll point you to my how to. But I don't know if the one click root will work on 1.5.
