crboone is right on the money!Heated exchange isn't going to accomplish anything. In the end, everyone should have Froyo one way or another. It's not *that* big of a deal to get angry or arrogant about it. Some people (not all) like to make up reasons to think someone else is dumber than they are.
I went back to 2.1 and rooted. If the leaked update is 99% of the "real" update, I will be greatly disapointed. I had way more issues with apps, camera, video and other things. I hope that it is A LOT better than the leaked version. I also realize some people didnt have the issues I had but they are there.
The way software dev cycles work, it is. Your issues are your issues. Thousands more have no issues, like myself.
If anyone from Motorola reads this forum. Its my phone. Not yours. I will do with it as I please.
So you are saying that even if someone post the OTA on internet, we who have the leak 2.2 on our phones, still won't be able to install it? We will still have to return to 2.1 no matter whether it's OTA, or an update.zip?"The Faceless Rebel" with all of the talk of being "ground under a vast corporate heel" and "they" and "those people" makes me laugh.
It's a phone. It's not a revolution.
Guys, please read sund0wn's posts again. Yes, it probably should have been worded better. But the reality is that there is a different software process to upgrade the leaked 2.2 phones - likely, the actual upgrade is different, but even if it means they just had to build sanity checks into the OTA update checker... Do you really think Moto is going to spend their resources on making sure the people who installed a leaked OS get their OTA upgrade? Or to validate that a leaked 2.2 -> final 2.2 upgrade is bug free (which I guarantee they would have to do prior to building the logic into the OTA checker to allow leaked 2.2 users to get the update)? Do you even know how much work validations like that are?
So they're giving you fair warning: you won't get the upgrade unless you're on stock 2.1.
That sounds pretty fair and reasonable to me.

I don't know. I'm obviously much more intelligent than most people here because I used a 1-click root and installed a leaked rom using someone else's instructions.
In fact, I'm too much of a genius to hang out with the likes of you. I'm going to go finish my plans to rule the world now.
Exact same situation here. I just about had to load the leak, due to no notifications from my exchange mail.sorry but i use my phone with my corporate exchange and on 2.1 i cannot search corporate directory for a phone number, this was fixed in 2.2 and the leak fixed my phone. i will revert back to 2.1 only when 2.2 starts rolling out.
Dude, just asking a question. No need to get riled up.I'm not saying anything of the sort.
Motorola is saying you won't get the OTA. That's it. That's all they're saying.
I'm sure someone, somewhere will come up with a way to upgrade leak-2.2 phones to OTA-2.2 phones. All Motorola is saying is that there will be no way for you to officially do it.
Thank you baby jesus for willing me to not root when I knew it was a fatal sin. I knew I made the right decision. LoL listen to you guys! That doesn't sound like you avoided certain catostostrophy, it sounds like you need to live a little.
