Ive been running the frg01b leak from pete. (the clean virgin. untouched)
Apparently this build is the same thing (or very close to the same thing).
Ive been reporting amazing (almost twice as long) battery life after i recharge the battery (on the phone) with this build running. Can anyone else here confirm better battery life?

 

Worked like a charm... you're the best.. Thanks.

 

Anyone having issues with programs running themselves after updating? Ive ATK'd email and twidryd yet I keep getting push notifications from each whenever I have a new email or tweet.

Also, touch screen calibration issues with the docking station? My screen is not reading movement correctly, placing touches about a half screen off.

Just wondering if anyone else is having issues.

 

would manually updating to 2.2 void the warranty????

 

Manually updated mine last night OTA. Smooth sailing! Thanks Trident and everyone else for making this happen!

 

Manually updated and running smoothly! Thanks!

2.2 gmail, chat, messaging, facebook are great! Also I love the "update all" feature in the market. The power control widget now toggles auto brightness in addition to low and full brightness! Sweet! Still using Launcher Pro however... I can't get enough of the new LP wigdets!

 

Same here! I just bought an extra battery and stand alone charger and now it appears I will rarely need it. Although, correct me if I'm wrong, but using Flashplayer will probably soak up some juice.

I was EXTREMELY pleased! After 6hrs yesterday I was still at 90% with light use....mostly just playing around texting with Swype. It's addicting as Hell!!

 

No...same as waiting for the OTA. Exactly the same piece of software...no worries!

 

I have a question i upgrded to 2.2 yesterday. AND IT IS AWESOME. THANK YOU!!!. But now the audio on pandora and all other streaming is horrendous. I found a fix at xda but it requires root access. If I downgrade my phone root it and re-upgrade will I keep root permissions ?

 

I have a ROOTED but STOCK 2.1 Droid. Can I still download the update to 2.2? Will I still be rooted and can I root again if needed? (without a custom rom). Will the update require a reformatting of the flash?

 

I know there have been some skeptics as to whether or not this is official. I got the file from the Google link, the phone had all of the keys it needed to think this was 100% OK. Those two things make me pretty comfortable but the real kicker will be when my fianc

 

Did the update and installed the flash. So cool being able to watch vids now.

 

I can't even download. I get this error in the download window on my phone.

"Cannot download. The content is not supported on this phone"

Rooted Droid. Using QR code and on Wi-Fi.

 

Usually content not supported means you need to use something like Astro File Manager to allow the browser to download all file types.

 

I already had an app called "File Manager". I downloaded Astro anyway though. Thanks. Will this remove my root status and will it reformat my phone to factory?

 

Also one in Astro you have to go into the settings and tell it to allow the browser to download any file type. It should pop up a warning about it mucking with gmail.

1.Open Astro
2.Tap Menu
3.Tap More
4.Tap Preferences
5.Enable Browser Downloads

 

Oy, things looked good, but then...

I followed the update procedure, everything went fine, it installed everything and asked to be rebooted. This first reboot never made it past the white M screen. Did a battery pull, waited a while, turn back on, stuck on the white M screen.

I was from a stock 2.1 install, no root or anything.

The phone will not let me install the update again, I get this error:

...
Verifying current system...
assert failed: apply_patch_check("/system/framework/core.odex", "269f5479367e1fc0d863e24f4d0bdf6858f1b168", "217d9d44db9c42507884f2c9a77ed8c5e624f0c3)
E:Error in /sdcard/update.zip
(Status 7)

What can I do?? Do I need to wait more than 15 mins at the M screen? Thanks.

Applied the 2.2 update. In the text messaging threads is there a way to have a picture for urself? Instead of it just showing the droid icon?

 

Yeah I wish it would put the picture back in messages I am hoping its something that will resync with google.

 

Can someone link me to 2.1 update.zip?

I am on version 2.01 stock. I would like to go to 2.1 stock then 2.2 but I can't find the upgrade for 2.1.

Please?

Thanks

 

After trying to update my phone I get the following on my screen..Can someone help me?

E: Can't open / cache /recovery/command

Install from sdcard
Finding update package
Opening update package
Verifying update package
E: signature verification failed
Installation aborted..


How do I fix this?

 

So in a few days when Verizon releases Froyo will I not be able to update since I used this update?

 

So does anyone know why Astro wont let me move the update.zip file from my SD card to my root file? I have tried copy/paste doesnt let me paste in root. I have also tried Move/Paste and still nothing. It's as if I don't have access to my own root file. I can look in it and there is nothing in the file. Please help!
