Another video of 2.1 on Eris

[OfTheDamned]

is there a limit on the types of phones that can be rooted?

Root is really a term used for Android devices and in theory every Android can be rooted. The Eris just hasn't yet.

I got rid of my house phone, maybe if I look on craigs list for an old rotary phone I can throw 2.1 on it

i had a phone from 1986 laying around, it was used on the Bell Atlantic Phone Service for years. Anyway, i got it out of the closet and downloaded the root software from XDA then threw 2.1 on it.

Not only can I make long distance calls but now I have multi-tasking and flash support.
Oh sh!t did my phone just surpass the iphone?

If you can make phone calls on it, that is all you really needed to surpass the iPhone.

Well, considering that phone probably transmits @ 3 watts it couple smoke the iPhone... literally

@SamWarrenger The update is just rolling out today, so I would give things a some more time/more tries. Let me know if it keeps happening

 

[DocTauri]

The date on the screen for this video is 2/17, which happens to be the date that all hell broke loose with the other video. Unfortunately, the quality of that video is too bad to see the initial date on it's screen.

Still hopeful...

Hi I'm JrzDroid
most of posts contain sarcasm,
I will help anyone who needs it
Constant threads about 2.1 are really starting to annoy me
i love technology
and I love giving my opinion when it comes to people posting threads saying they have the latest news after visiting their local verizon store and asking when 2.1 is coming out

live long and prosper
PS: OTD is pretty
