Android 2.1 Update Rolls Out For Motorola Droid!

Someone mentioned about rolling out the update in the relative order the phones were purchased and activated. It makes me curious just how exactly they ARE rolling it out, specifically in the US. I wonder if broken down into blocks of numbers on a server and they go through one server at a time which equates to X number of random people.


I wish i remember where, but i read it goes out based on Serial Number... Which makes sense...
 
Hey, this is really great news.
All of us are very excited I see.
People have been very anxious.
Pick me for one of the first 1,000 I hope.
You can bet I’ll post as soon as I get it.

Anyone get it yet?
Parking in front of my DROID and waiting.
Right now
I can’t wait.
Look at how fast this thread is growing.

First post wasn’t that long ago.
Only 1000 in the first batch?
Ouch, that is going to take a long time.
Looks like no one has posted it yet.
Stay tuned to the thread for more updates.
 
Though I rarely post on here, I gotta say that some of the posts on here are some of the funniest I've ever read. :clap:

I would think you'd want a good cross-section of serials for the test group, though... Make sure that any minor differences in hardware over the months or application combos don't trip anyone up.

After that, sequentially would make sense (although since I bought mine in late February, it sucks for me!).
 

Now THERE'S a better pic. All I wanted to see was the Verizon logo at the bottom of the phone.

Guy confirmed that there is definitely only 3 SCREENS. Not good VZW.

That make me kind of sad in pants. stupid VZW is right...
 
For all the people shouting April fools.... Its not even April yet its still March 30th.... Now if this news came out at 11:59pm then you could say it...

They stated that at 12:00 1,000 people would get the update
then @ 11:59 PM another 9,000 will get the update.
They will then wait 24 hours to make sure everything it ok,
and push the update out to 200,000 people at a time starting on April 1st if everything works fine.

How are these people taking screenshots? I thought only rooted users could!!?

Nope, way before phones were rooted people took screen shots.
