***Droid X Software Update***

[Wolfedude88]

I'm trying to make sure that I'm not going blind or something because I can't find any mentions of 7/19. Besides, this isn't exactly leaked info when it's posted on the official X support website on VZW. *shrug*

If NTK says it starts the 19th than I feel inclined to believe it. He has leaked info to us before and I don't ever remember seeing him be wrong.

^ This.

When entering text into a forum entry box - like this one for instance - if you screw up it's damn near impossible to put the cursor where you want it to edit the text.

Complete pain in the @ss.

At least, I think that's what it might be.

I hated that with the dinc. It sounds like it may be worse right now with the X? I hope there really improve that.

I think a lot of people will be pleased with the updates, especially the faster syncing with Exchange as I've seen that as a real annoyance with some people.

Improvements:

+ Improved battery charging status indicator.
+ Smoother transition for camera and camcorder functions.
+ Redesign of weather widget icons.
+ Faster Exchange ActiveSync​

The evo was horrible at it, but the x is great at it, to me at least. There is a red little eye that appears when you move the cursor to where you want it.

Is that a wish, or something on the list? I'm hoping there's a way to get rid of the blockbuster app. if I get the phone.

 

[dookie1]

how intrusive is this? ie: installed apps/customizations are left alone i assume? using launcher pro...

 

[soapinmouth]

something on the list

Every thing should stay the same as far as your preferences and setup. You shouldn't lose any data or have to re-setup your phone. Now when we go to Froyo that might be a different story...

The evo was horrible at it, but the x is great at it, to me at least. There is a red little eye that appears when you move the cursor to where you want it.

And if you press and hold that red dot it will open a little magnifying window to help you place your cursor.

Anyone questioning NKT, you shouldn't. He was dead on accurate in the Eris forums with all update info.

 

[ashykat]

nice improvements. Hopefully 2.2 will be pushed out soon

They say 2.2 isn't coming to the X 'til August.

 

[jreed2560]

that would constitute late summer

I agree...also the ear piece volume...

Here are a few more things:

PLEASE ADD copy/paste in browser/emails...and AUTO FOCUS for camera.

 

[BringTheRain403]

auto focus is there. the camera button is two stage. Hold half way down to focus and then the rest of the way to take the picture...

Nice to see motorola and Verizon respond so fast I remember the Storm 1 it took almost a year to get a working update LOL!
