the battery life on froyo is amazing. And for the most part, most apps work on it. But some users have brought up a good point about going back to 2.1. We have a how to get froyo, how about a how to for going back to 2.1 just in case the official update won't work. Start being prepared people!!

Anyone have a link that will download directly to the phone? the link above says download not supported.

For those of you that have rom manager there is 2.2 on there for droid x just installed was running 2.2 in five minutes

If it doesnt work you need bootstrap installed. And I moved my su file before to make sure I still had root. I have have root.

Can anyone help me out?

I moved the update.zip to the root of the sd card. When I reboot into recovery I get the following message.

Assert failed: apply_patch_check("/system/app/B1urAlarmClock.apk"

E;Error in /sdcard/update.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted

Thanks in advance

You've either deleted or messed up the default alarm clock.. you're going to have to sbf flash your phone if you want to install 2.2

In the beginning of this thread it said the 2.2 install did not require root and your link says it does. Is this a different version of 2.2 ?

It requires root if you want your 2.2 to be rooted, otherwise it doesn't.

can I delette this update.zip file after installing it?

 

[Moonlk]

Yes, you can.

did this update automatically put your apps onto your sd card? I never checked this and it may just be a coincidence but now my memory card is full when try to take a picture

No, it shouldn't have. You have to go to Settings -> Applications to do that.


Also, many apps don't even allow you to move to SD yet.
