Moto Droid Supposedly Getting Froyo on 7/13

[seahawk1984]

Sorry no, but here might be a suggestion

Does anyone have any tips for rooting the droid with a mac?

I did some searching around for you, and from what I found on the web led me right back to these forums. Looks like it might not be easy for you, but it can be done.

Here is the link to the thread that I found, hope this helps. http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-general-discussions/53129-rooting-mac.html

latest I heard the official update will be august 7th OTA

enough is enough so I am bringing the bad news...Not until September sorry the date unknown but guaranteed in September. Droid X screen issues and 2.2 OTA for it as well plus Droid 2.2 needs to get into the market is top priority right now. Droid will get 2.2 but September is target month.

August 7th ?? I have no idea why someone at Verizon is saying that something is being released that day but not a OTA update for the Droid.

Not supposed to say this but root away for now...man I just sinned myself.

so the droid 2 will get it before all other phones then?

Man I'm glad I took the leap, and rooted my phone today! Would drive me nuts to wait until September!

Thanks again for all your help, couldn't have done it with out you all.

I'm srry I don't buy it, the Droid X and D2 won't have much impact on a OS upgrade. Either way it doesn't matter it will be here when it's here

 

[huskerkate]

sorry, i don't buy it either. multiple sources have said either 8/7 or "late july/early august" - both of which are consistent. but whatever...

Cool story Hansel. Are you a secret agent who is the only one who knows the official date? Interesting.

Rumor only but i heard the x will get it first

I spoke to a Verizon rep tonight. He said August 7th, and that both Droid and Droid X will get the update at the same time. This is was the only guy in the store who could talk tech with me, and was the only rep sporting a Droid X or any Droid phone for that matter.

Haha.

Your brother's neighbor's cousin's co-worker's sister's dad who totally knows a guy who knows a guy who knows a guy who works at a verizon store let you in on that secret?

Froyo due for Droid and Incredible any day according to verizon manager

Talked to a verizon regional manager today when I went to go look at the Droid X and he let it slip in a whisper that the 2.2 update for Droid is finished and due any day now OTA with the Droid Incredible update following soon after. He had it running on the Droid he had so it seems pretty credible to me (i didn't get a look at the build number unfortunately). The wait will soon be over!

Threads merged. If you look a few pages back on this thread we are talking about it arriving around the date of 8/7. If it get's here sooner, that's even better.

Did you actually see that 2.2 was running on his Droid? He was probably rooted running a stock 2.2 rom of some sort. Let the OTA come, Im staying right where I am, rooted and custom themed.

I'll bet he was running Froyo. But he was probably rooted.
