Android 2.1 Update Rolls Out For Motorola Droid!

Anyway, good to see that the update has come through and it apparently being passed around.. I'll wait for the OTA update. With 2,000,000 Droids to update at 200,000 per day, it's going to take a few days, but, I have waited this long, what's another week?

Forgot where I saw the numbers now, but 1.5 million droids were sold in Q4, let's assume the same in Q1, that's 3 million... 200,000 per day is 5 days per million, you could be waiting a few weeks :)

Since this is the same exact update you'd get OTA, I had no problem jumping the gun and doing it...

Heck it took me all of 10 minutes tops to do both my wife's and mine. I wasn't going to wait, it's too easy to do and what's the point of waiting?
 
my pinch to zoom does not seem to work in the browser, and my gallery won't open after 2.1... anyone have this problem?? I dragged the update.zip right to the SD card... not into any folder, ran it... the text to speech is there, and so is live wallpapers, but all other updates don't seem to be there... anyone know why?

If you are trying to open the Gallery app from your home screen, it may not work. Try from the drawer and see if that works. Then drag a new gallery icon to home. I had the same issue with Gallery.

DUH!!!! Thanks for the help!
 
Thanks...we all appreciate you all thinking about us

I wanted to post as soon as I saw the message come across in Gmail last night, but didn't get a chance.

Did want to take this opportunity to say thanks to you and all our service men and women on these forums (well, everywhere) for the incredible job you do. Words can't express the gratitude I and many others have for what you do for our country.
 
i got my update ready

I tried pinch to zoom on the MOBILE google home screen and it didn't work, but then I switched to classic and it zoomed. You probably just need to go to a non mobile site to use the pinch to zoom.

yeah, if you had a shortcut on your homescreen, it points to the now defunct previous gallery...just delete what was there and add a new shortcut from the drawer.
 
You have to delete the Gallery shortcut as it points to the old file, and bring back the new Gallery icon from the app tray to home screen. Gallery is beautiful to look at by the way, I love the update.
 
I manually installed the update this morning, and it works perfectly - except now the email app force closes every time I try to use it. I'm still trying to find a solution.
 
The lag when using the live wallpapers (like flipping over to another screen), is that temporary or is that what you get with live wp?
