DROID ~ Stock - Root - Dead - Reborn, Stock. Questions.

[tCub]

Quick question.

My DROID has gone from Stock to Root to near dead to back to Stock (via flashing the device using RSDLite).

I flashed 2.0 on it, then manually updated to 2.0.1, then 2.1. I had manually update because the OTA updates weren't working.

I'm hoping when 2.2 hits next week my phone will pick up the OTA update. Any reason why it wouldn't? I did have root access but it's since been flashed back to all stock non-rooted. I'd assume it'll work but I just wanted to get a few more opinions...

Thanks.

Judging by what you said, no one can be sure. You might get it, and you might not; lot of factors.

Either way you'll still be able to manually download and install it once it's released.

Yeah, I considered that maybe the OTA servers only handle one version at a time. So maybe they're gearing them up for 2.2 or something. I'm trying to remember back when I had the Palm Pre because it used OTA updates too, unlike iPhone.

Regardless, it's no big deal. As long as I get the OFFICIAL final build I'll be happy. I'll just wait a little while to see if the OTA update comes or not.

I was hoping someone would have a definitive answer but still I agree that it sounds like a server thing and not my DROID.

Also FWIW, under About Phone, all the information appears as it should for a stock Droid running 2.1.. The kernel, baseband, build, etc... all stock. Also SPRecovery/ClockworkMod are gone as well. I'm back to the stock X + Power recovery screen.

NOTE: My apologies for not searching for that thread prior to posting. It's been a hectic weekend as I thought I broke my DROID. In fact the replacement is still coming so I'll have to deny the FedEx guy a signature.
