I'm going to take a wild guess here that you own something besides the original Droid, aka Droid 1?

I have the droid 1. I never install the last OTA. I'm guessing the is for people who didn't install the first OTA so they combine it I assume.

Possible, but that's still like 30 Meg bigger than FRG01B, which doesn't sound like a small difference to me.

I'm rooted with the Lith Watermarked ROM - I won't do anything to upset what I have set up already.

Everything works fine and I tried flash and honestly it annoyed me on the little screen.

I dont mind posting the my version of the update except when I click install later, there is no update.zip in root of sd card. Anyone knows

It's not on the SD card. It's in /cache partition. It will have a full name like e48e48ff4252.signed-voles-FRG01B-from-ESE81.zip - not update.zip.

I would be very interested in a copy as well. Thank goodness for RapidShare, etc.

Here the OTA link, it could just be a new copy of the 1st OTA like Gadgetrants said previously, but is 30 mb more than original OTA.
The name is 9046f5a3ec09.signed-voles-ota-45394.zip

Here the link if anyone wanna try.

I can tell you from that screenshot that is FRG01B. It's bigger because it's the full install instead of the patch. Thanks tho

I wonder if the Droid 2 keeps all of it's Froyo-promised features.

Droid 2 has Wifi hotspot, yes.

But this was never officially "promised" to anyone for any specific device. It was simply a feature that could be implemented with Froyo, which is all Google meant when they announced it. It means that the kernel is capable of supporting the app, should the carrier choose to implement it (and the hardware fully supports it).

The problem with the Droid 1 is that the Wifi chipset doesn't officially support a wifi hotspot feature. Wifi tether works, but that sets up an ad-hoc network; not an infrastructure network. Ad-hoc works fine with about 90% of the devices on the market, however, the remaining 10% are out of luck. In order to be a TRUE wifi hotspot, the device should be capable of acting like a true wifi router. Since the Droid 1 is not, the feature is not included. The Droid 2's newer 802.11n capable wifi chipset is capable of infrastructure mode, and thus the feature is there.

+1

And let's fact it, IMO ...for most of the lemmings out there, who is going to connect more than one device to your Droid at a time?

Wi fi tether works great for doing exactly what it does, allows you to tether a laptop when in need.

Show me how batt like goes out the window if you actually had 5 dev's connected and eating thru your batt...

As to the update, BFD ... I'm running sapphire, can install flash already if I want it.

I can wait for the dev's to incorporate and get out a new version, because this incremental doesn't do much.

Hey so sorry if this was already answered, i saw people ask variations of the question with no real answer, i manually installed 2.2, and already have flash downloaded, will this still get pushed to me? Even though i have flash i still want the security updates that are suppose to come with it.

Just wondering because when i id the manual update i never got the official OTA pushed to me. (dont know if they have a way to check what OS you are running and then dont push it to you if you already have it?)

Thanks in advance

Glad I read the whole thread. I have the same question. I did a manual update to 2.2, FRG01B and I manually installed Flash. What happens with the new OTA update? Will my set up get screwed up?
