The system reloads all of the media files so it takes some time. Wait like 5 minutes and your media will show up.

That's supposed to happen. It says it in the installation instructions.For some reason I lost my root after updating to 2.2
It seems some people were able to keep their root apps working after the update. Mine don't work anymore.

Actually, when first posted, the instructions did not warn you unless you went to the root section rather than this section.

No you are not supposed to lose root, read the instructions in the all things root section. I was rooted before updating, I am still rooted on 2.2 now

When I first upgraded from 2.1 to 2.2, I did a wipe + SBF, upgraded to 2.2, and restored my system from Titanium Backup. Had assloads of problems, including an eventual bootloop.
So I wiped + SBF'd again, and reinstalled most of my stuff from the Market, minus 2 paid apps I grabbed from Titanium Backup instead.
Seems fine now.

I haven't had any problems at all and I have not stopped playing with my phone to see if I could find any for about 4-5 hours since I upgraded.
I wonder how the leaked version compares to the D2 or D1 versions. This might be an old version or one with temp code (assuming it was a dev phone).
I have no regrets for having waited.
I am thinking about going to the local Verizon store this weekend sometime just to compare my phone side by side with the Droid 2, not that I would even consider switching. But from everything I have read so far our X on 2.2 spanks the Droid 2 easily.
I already know it is a lot better than the Droid 1 because I upgraded my daughter's Droid to 2.2 already

Google maps is working fine for me too
I found that opening Navigator fixes the google map issue, it no longer force closes for me.

From what I've read (several reviews), except for an updated keyboard, faster cpu and bigger battery, it's still the same old phone with nearly identical dimensions and hardware, including the camera. The X does circles around it with a better cpu/gpu. Our sales manager at work was considering it and I told him he was stupid. No-one at work as the D2, but 3 of us have the X so I suspect he might actually get one.
As far as I'm concerned, the only options are the Inc (better software) or X (better hardware).

What could possibly be better about the Inc software? I don't know if it has a locked bootloaded but other than that I would take the crappy blur over the crappy sense if I had to choose one of the 2.

does froyo have the option to turn off the lock screen like 2.1 did. i ask because i had the lock screen disabled and now with froyo on it's still disabled but i cant find the option to re-enable it

Settings -> location and security -> set up screen lock -> you have 4 choices:
None, Pattern, Pin, and Password

In your face turned on whether you like it or not now. ;(
My question exactly, and my biggest complaint so far about Froyo...

Wow, I didn't even think about that until you asked, I had to look again just to see. I use widgetlocker so I hadn't even noticed. I have no idea how to get the regular slide to unlock
