Unable to get access to Flash from Market - Had to find .apk file and download and manually install, flash does work great though!

Any changes to multimedia DOCK app or bluetooth calling functionality?

Flash is not in the market. Anyone have a link for the .apk?

I don't hear the DROID tone when it boots or when I connect via USB.

I also want to know how to move apps to the SD card, because the option is grayed out in the applications menu.

Only certain applications can be moved to the SD Card, if you can't the option is greyed out.

Will work for now until we get the official, final build.

One question ... Once I rebooted and started Froyo, I accidentally hit for the froyo home screen to load by default instead of my open home. Any way to fix that cuz it is discouraging me LOL

One more thing I noticed, not sure if it's related. But I no longer see my purchased apps in the app store "downloads".

I like this app for switching home screens.

Get the app "Home Switcher" from the Market.

Looks cool, but the description says it doesn't support Froyo because of the new API.

I noticed the same thing :/

 

[skpdroid]

after we download and copy the .apk file to the droid, do we need to install it somehow or should it just work?

 

[mobile1]

Helix Launcher crashing frequently. Decided to uninstall.

SSL not working for Exchange Email

TAFs and METARs has no working version for 2.2 - Application uninstalled itself.

Battery seems to be draining faster...

you need a app to install them, the one I use is appinstaller. there may be better ones tho.

 

[johnlgalt]

Whoa, questions galore!

I'm on it!

 

[skpdroid]

Thanks. Flash now working!

Hi all,

I have been a frequent reader but this is my first post. I installed the 2.2 update and things have been running great. I noticed that the Wifi icon in the notification area does not "fill in" like it used to. It looks as if I have no Wifi signal even though in Wifi setting if I click on my wireless network it shows Signal Strength: Excellent. In Wifi Analyzer my AP shows between -40 and -50 db. That's pretty damn good. Just curious if anyone else has noticed this?

Thanks for the great site and the great info and the early FroYo!
