It's early September!!! Where is the Froyo OTA???

[Piiman]

Why shouldn't they remove Google apps as long as they can be downloaded from the market again?

All they did was remove the preinstalled Nav and installed their own. If you don't like it, just install your own.

Because its a blatant attempt to trick someone into paying for theirs when a free one is available. So how many people do you think won't know their is a free navigator waiting in the app store? One that normally comes with the OS?

Maybe it's just me but I'm not into big companies trying to nickle and dime me through trickery. Call me nuts.

Completely fair point.

Late Summer.... maybe they meant the END OF SUMMER... when?

During the Autumnal Equinox. For 2010, that is 03:09, September 23rd (UTC).

Dont have much to say, as Ive been there already with the Eris, Droid 1, and now the X - so w/e, itll be here. But, I can share a photo with you not sure how it happened, but we were screwing with a ipod over the summer, and this pic is the result, lol

what does that even have to do with anything on this website let alone this thread

its kinda funny how people gripe about some apps that you can't remove without root and then others that do come on the phone get taken off...

You guys/ girls can't expect a company to predict what apps everyone wants/ doesn't want on your phone. So just do like bianry visions said and do it yourself...

Well i wouldn't go that far jk

About as much as this thread has to do with acquiring a release date for 2.2

I think the point is they are replacing free apps from Google with their paid apps and in some cases restricting your choices. And making app non uninstallable is also BS. Try removing VZW bloat without voiding your warranty (rooting). Isn't that City ID nag nice? If you don't have root you'll either have to buy it or answer that nag for 2 years. NIICEEEE

i agree with you but the problem is that WE CANT REMOVE THEM without rooting and potentially voiding the warranty. now that said its easy to root and remove the bloat and then unroot for any warranty return

9 days into September = Tantrum

I agree that it is stupid they try to force stuff on us but i have come to live with this thanks to VZW

totally odd, just finished setting up my bosses Droid 2 and he was already running 2.2 and decided to check for updates and it found an update 2.2.20.en.us, it felt like a partial update though becuase it only took about 30 sec to install.

It was a Droid 2, not a Droid X, which we already knew was running 2.2.

correct, thats why i stated, "Droid 2 was already running 2.2" and downloaded 2.2.20, anyways, just wanted to throw this out there, dont want to start a panic

Ive been on this board for 4 days now I believe and even I'm tired of hearing about Froyo, I cant imagine how you guys feel about the topic..haha

Yes. You haven't heard? The OTA update got pushed yesterday. You just have to keep pushing the check update button. Some users are reporting that it takes 200-300 checks to find it, so keep pushing!
