Android 2.1 Update Rolls Out For Motorola Droid!

[hookbill]

Perhaps we need an updated page one or a sticky or something with the details of what's included, etc., so people dont keep asking the same questions.

I don't blame them for doing so as you'd have to be bored, insane and have no life to sort through almost 1500 posts for info. Searching droid and flash wont be very useful either (or other repeat questions).

If you don't like the question, ignore it, there's no need to bash curious people.

I have two times today posted what the update included. Let's make it 3:

I have a quick question - every time someone quotes a time that are adamant that it is EST - Eastern Standard Time. Does anyone realize that all the published times are actually in EDT - Eastern Daylight Time??? EST is actually an hour earlier than EDT!

Hook have you had to swing the mod stick in the 2.1 thread?

If you read the PDF list of the 2.1 update backwards it says "This Update Does Nothing."

I'm kidding, but if he can pull that out of the wood work so can I.:icon_ banana:

I just checked out Rom Manager and it's showing 2.1 rooted as an option which I'm about to try now. Don't know if this has been covered or not but i'm downloading it now.

i did the force update, everything works as described. you cant pinch/zoom on the mobile websites though. i wish you can change the setting like in dolphin to go to main sites not mobile. other than that it seems good. first restart was laggy in the droid eye screen, but i restarted it after that and its fine.

one other request if you guys may, where can one find more live wallpaper options?

:welcome: to the Droid Forums. You certainly can try it if you'd like but you need to discuss that in the Hacks section. Good luck.

I havent found any in the market that are better than the water that comes with it.
