Droid will be getting 2.2 VERY soon. If you go to verizonwireless.com and go to the update page for motorola droid it shows a picture of the phone and the screen of the phone shows software update then it sais froyo 2.2

I hope it is true as I turned out to be unable to get the DROIDX because I was outside my thirty day grace period. I love my moto droid but it seems like everyone is knocking it now because of the latest releases. The DROID deserves the Froyo update ASAP because it really is a great phone that doesn’t have the bugs so many new androids have.

Wow, I’m surprise with motorola! How f*%#$@g the droid going to have a 2.2 and motorola cliq are stock with the damn 1.5 and we had the promise update for Q2 and we close to the half of Q3. What’s going on? Are the goodies are exclusively for vzw?? I’m not jelaous; I’m dying of envy!!! Of course… btw, congrats for the update!

Yes I hope this is true to because a phone as coolish as the X should have had 2.2 On it out the box as the guy above me said. Outside its no front facing cam…its still one of the best phones out there if not the best…y0

With an ota update will it automatically be downloaded to my phone or will I have to download it?

If companies can roll out firmware updates this fast I might think about leaving my N1 for some kind of droid phone.

This “rumor” is confirmed. see the link below from the motorola forums.
https://supportforums.motorola.com/thread/30001

and the Motorola software update site.

so far as I’m concerned that makes it pretty official. Granted they could be just tormenting us for giggles but I think it’s real.

Will Google post the manual update or will I have to wait for the OTA? I sure hope someone posts the Update.zip file before loading!

@F. Augusztin Thanks for the link! Naturally I wasn’t following that Twitter feed since German is not my first language (though I do understand it), good to hear some positive news about Motorola for once.

I don’t just want to see froyo rolled out. I want them to have TV ads that show Flash running on any droid. People will associate android as the phone OS that can view all the web.

Name *one* device that ships with 2.2.

its a shame that motorola gets to release the first froyo installed phone on the market. The droid x should have had the 2.2 pre-installed. they are too busy building new verison of motoblur, there is proof.
F U C K motorola.

O2 Germany says end of September. Motorola can’t be serious… On positive side they will provide us Android 2.2 if this is true, but on other side another 2 months ? Seems like Motorola has 2 people doing updates for all their phones :/
