Android 2.1 Update Rolls Out For Motorola Droid!

[JMody]

They are using this update to see is leaking out the information about the updates and such. So, I would beware of installing the zip file. You will break your terms of service with verizon, and they are looking to take people to small claims court who are doing illegal things with their phones.

bull.
1. its an official update
2. you can do with your phone what you please. unless you're pirating.

Your troll radar is in fail mode, may want to reboot.

LMFAO!!! That was awesome!

This is probably ONE of the most ridiculous posts i've ever read.

If I get the OTA how would I go about pulling the zip off the phone? It might be a good idea to have the procedure somewhere in the thread

IF YOU GET PROMPTED FOR THE UPDATE

The following instructions will greatly help out the rest of the Droid community who does not want to wait over the next few days for the update to randomly arrive on their device. If you follow them, you will be able to capture the update file and spread the love with the rest of us!
1. You will first see this message appear on your phone if you are one of the testers:

-Press “Install Now.”
2. The update will then download in the background.
3. The following message will then appear:

-You may press the home button but DO NOT PRESS “Restart & Install!”
4. Plug your phone into your computer and mount your SD card. You should now be able to browse the contents of your SD card.
5. On the root of your SD card, you will see a file called “update.zip”. Copy that file to somewhere on your computer like the desktop. It should be about 15MB in size.
6. Finally, upload it to a file sharing site and post the link to it on this thread.
7. Now, you can now continue the update like normal. To get back to the “Restart and Install” menu as seen above, navigate to Setting> About Phone> System Updates.”

I believe you hit "update later" or "not now" then connect your phone to your computer and mount the SD card. Then look on the SD card for "update.zip" copy that file to your desktop and post here for further instructions
