Eris to v2.x, when?

No this is a beta version of 2.1 and will have some minor changes when the official OTA rolls out. I don't know if combined inbox will be in the OTA but I doubt it.
 
Simmer down now friends....

I have no idea about anything pertaining to gmail cause i dont use it....cause it sucks.
 
I am trying to find the link to 2.1 as well as the instructions, I thought it was stickied. Either it isn't or I am a complete idiot.

It's embedded in the middle of a few threads around here. You're not an idiot, you just have to persevere, some things are hard to locate in a forum, even in search, especially links.
 
I have 2 questions and one sounds stupid but if I format my card on the phone will it wipe out my phone contents like apps and settings, or will whats on my phone be rewriten to the card after the format. 2nd question is can I have a different sound for email and txt notifications? I was able to with 1.5

You been peaking again? Wasn't sure if anyone was keeping track of this as many have reported it; Sorry Smacky. I bet if you get a little closer though, that penis will grow 8------):D
 
Are we sure it is going to be 2.1 with this "radio upgrade"? Or are they going to say "we promised you 2.x not 2.1, so we have decided it is too buggy at this time, so here is 2.0 and a minor radio fix." ?


Not to be a cynic or anything, but after several lead ups where we were sure it was the the real upgrade, this is still not the droid i was looking for.
 
I read on XDA that it might be possible to downgrade from 2.1 to 1.5 using a file that's extracted while running MR1 RUU (not MR2).

I have NOT tried this, but you're welcome to be the guinea pig.

1. With your phone not connected to your computer, run the MR1 RUU (not MR2). Get to the point where it says it can't find your phone and wants to exit. Don't exit.

2. In Windows explorer, go to:
c:\Documents and Settings\yourusername\Local Settings\Temp

3. Sort by date, and the most recent subdirectory should be from no more than a few minutes earlier. It'll be something like "{C4AEBEB0-34E4-482A-811F-C426B9FA87AC}". Open it and find "rom.zip".

4. Move "rom.zip" out of that directory onto your desktop or something and then exit the MR1 RUU.

5. Rename "rom.zip" to "PB00IMG.zip", put it on your SD card, and follow the directions that we all used to upgrade in the first place.


EDIT: It failed. Never mind.
