Even More Froyo

[dragonfly1113]

To answer the non-rooted droid questions I believe yes there is a way but its harder than the original way, you may have to reflash back to 2.0 and than root. I'm just happy i rooted before the 2.1 upgrade

I am coming from a never rooted official 2.1...is this safe for me if I don't want to dive into the rooting excitement for droids? This is the OFFICIAL 2.2 that verizon would push over the air for our Droids?

Bump this...

I dont want to sound wrong, but if you purchase ROM Manager, you can root your phone that way. And yes I think it bypasses your OTA updates. Then again, this is supposed to be the update I believe. Officially

For some reason the market on this update is just as slow as Bugless V.0.3. Been sitting on Installing a good two minutes.

After BB v 0.3 my market never synced. I just had to redownload everything. Waited a good 15min for it too

Rom Manager is for rooted phones, it can NOT root your phone.

If you are 2.1-update1 the easiest way is to use RDLite to flash the SPRecovery.sbf file to your phone. This will give you SPRecovery as your recovery program allowing you to install unsigned .zip files (like update.zip to root OR a SPRecovery backup that has root).

Can someone confirm this? All I have to do is purchase ROM Manager, and apply this .zip?

Anyone have a working direct download link? I can't access mediafire/rapidshare/etc from work

Nope, Rom Manager can NOT root your phone.

Follow the link in the OP, I think he re-uploaded the files to include credit. (P3dFRF84B-Release vs FRF84B-Release in the filename)

 

[subsynth]

I realized that the original/source MDW is not linked in the OP.
That's pretty lame, cite your sources!

Miami and P3 have a VERY good working relationship : )

Miami ALWAYS gives credit where credit is due. Perhaps you missed this?

"one more time before the official release rolls out. DF has gotten permission to repost this from MDW as always. P3 over at MDW has leaked the official VZW build of Froyo for the Droid........so again a big thanks to him and MDW for thier continued support and friendship"
