      • okay never mind guys; sorry. i just saw that my system version is 2.2.340.MB810.Verizon.en.US
        the android version 2.2.1 and i apologize for the questions im new to this, i have never rooted my phone.

  • I installed the new update, Madden is there but requires an additional content download that won't download. Huge lag (5 seconds) when I push the home button to leave an app. Nothing positive to post on the update.

  • Mine failed as well at first. I have a rooted Droid X that i renamed some of the bloatware. Once I renamed them back to the correct name it updated fine. After the update it looks like I am not rooted anymore. Running Z4 again 🙂

  • Kellex, when you say 2.2.1, are these the folks that used “update.zip” to go to the previous Verizon DX upgrade early? The reason I ask is that I am running 2.3.9 release and it's not showing me the new upgrade as being available when I do a poll. HELP please! 🙂

  • I bought my phone december the 8th and i havent gotten any OTA update i checked it and it say im just running 2.2 and no madden 11

  • quick question:

    can i use the VRZ_MB810_2.3.15_1FF_01 SBF to remove clockworkmod after installing the 2.3.340 system update?

  • My droid 1 tried to get the update this morning, but it didn't do anything since I'm running BB v.5. Oh well, a phone's a phone.

  • I have a original Droid…..Bought it last year when they first came out. Just did a system update to the Android 2.2.1. Still have NO idea what this means…..anyone feel like letting me know?

  • Update was available for me at 7:30am EST, but I had to reinstall some bloatware. By the time i got that reinstalled, the update seems to have been removed. I'm getting the “up to date” message.

  • still nothing for me…..10:30am est. i am z4 rooted….defrosted any apps that were frozen, rebooted several times…still says no update at this time:(

    no custom roms or anything, just overclocked, wireless tether, that sort of thing. and no gingerbread keyboard.

  • My droid x wont update…just say device is up to date. My phone isn't rooted and I just did a factory reset..but still no update? Anyone no what's up or why my phone wont update?

  • Central Time zone no root everything stock No update says phone is up to date. Why does insist on lying to me? 9:20am

  • at 6am it says check update not available check later and then at 8am it says i am up to date. until now i am not getting the update. i am rooted and i have removed all bloatware except the cityid. is this causing the problem. if yes, is restoring to factory helps? thanks guys

  • I was rooted and downloaded the update. I didn't install right away and read that I needed all system apps in place. Since I deleted a few of the system apps like city id I reverted to my original backup… now I can't download the update again… oops. Oh well, i'll either get the ota later or find a manual update… or I might just go to .320 since there's a safety net otherwise known as sbf.

  • I am rooted with Z4, running 2.2, version 2.3.15, with no custom ROM, just back notification bar, and new Gingerbread keyboard. I did uninstall Need For Speed. Did not I go to pull it and says I am up to date. Do I need to install the stock keyboard or get rid of the theme for it to work?

      • i think the “app” that comes with the update is just a virtual install package.. im thinking once you actally install it youll have the option to remove it.. i would hope anyway.. anyone actually playing madden yet? do you have an unistall or move to SD option in your app manager?

  • I had 928 Black Glass and had the update come it. Tried to run it twice and it failed. Installed the OTA and now it says device is up to date, but still on 2.3.15.

  • Got the update this morning. I am now running 2.2.1 version 2.3.340. It broke my root access, but YOU ARE able to re-root. I used z4root app to re-root and am back up and running!

  • I'm still on 2.2 rooted with Z4root it's 8:05 Central time in Illinois and still no update available. I've rebooted my phone and checked again still no update! Does that mean I need to unroot before I can get the update? No other special things on my phone all bloatware still there. I will try to reboot again and check. Any other suggestions?

      • I will try that now and if it works post it back here so others will know. Meanwhile I tried to reboot twice and still no update. Pulling battery now and letting it sit for 30 seconds.

        • Still no update after a battery pull. Could it be possible that the update is hitting certain satellite's then working it's way around to others for the update? I'm in Centrall Illinois Champaign/Urbana area.

  • Running 928Droid BGX 2.3 rooted. When I select System update I get “System update” is not available without a Motorola account. I am assuming that somehow the deoxing and rooting are causing that, am I right? would like to go back to s non-rooted Froyo 2.2 and then update. Can someone tell me how to do that?

  • DX here. One-click root. When I attempt to pull the update I get a message saying that my device is up to date. I have rebooted twice to no avail. Any suggestion?

  • This Phone seems more responsive as well…might just be me though. Madden is there…and it wants you to download more content to play,Thanks for sharing with us…

  • Got a link for that sbf. Everyone I flash does not seem to be full cause its not erasing all the apps and info?

  • Hey guys do I need to install the 2.3.15 before I will get the update for the .340? Please someone let me know bc if so I will DL the 2.3.15 so I can then update to .340!!!

  • Upgrade worked fine for me. But I decided to use the 2.2 OTA SBF before upgrading when I noticed that koush bootstrap still booted into recovery after reloading stock 2.2 backup. I haven't tried re-rooting but I'm waiting until a SBF is released for this OTA. Like starting from the beginning. So far OTA is solid.

  • I had to reboot before i could pull the update. It downloaded quick and z4root rooted it sucessfully. However z4 did not show up in the market after the update. Anyone else seeing this?

  • Is the update avail for anyone to pull right now b/c i cant pull it. Says update system not avail.

  • I'm rooted, but no ROMs or anything. Didn't get the update. Not sure why. Got the email from Moto last night. Any thoughts? Also, very odd, I can't download z4root. When I rooted I used the 1 click method in the forums, not z4root. Could this be why? z4root isn't in the market for me, and when I tried to sideload it from XDA Forums it said my device doesn't support that file. Any thoughts? And how can I get the update now? Thanks!

  • Registered as part of the MFN but did not get the email others received…update was not pushed to my X but had no trouble pulling it this morning. Only problem was when I tried charging it I received the message that the battery could not be charged because I needed an official Motorola battery (mine reads Motorola and was sent to me by Verizon). Did a battery pull then all was fine. All looks good so far. I'm seeing a definite increase in speed and responsiveness.

    • I'm not getting the update. Did you unroot with Z4 first? Do you have to unfreeze the bloatware, or does that just happen when you unroot?

      • Defrost the bloat and reboot and try to pull the update. settings-> about phone-> system update

        • Still no go. I’ll just try later. Almost had a problem by unrooting Z4. Kept rebooting to clockwork mode. Finally got it to reroot though.

  • im officially in love with this phone all over again.. its soooooo much better. smoother, faster… no more keyboard lag. it even boots up faster. just overall MUCH less buggy. im a happy camper right now. thanks moto

  • I am officially updated as of 7:30 am Eastern time, checked as soon as I woke up, it should be there for everyone now. Everything went smooth as can be this time around, not like last update thank god, and the phone seems super responsive. MAJOR NEWS: MY TEXT MESSAGES ARE IN CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER WOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW, all hail to the droid X.

  • Just so everyone knows the update does delete your root access howevr z4root can reroot your droid x within only minutes.

  • Installed successfully. I lost root however this was expected. What wasn't expected was to see such little change in performance maybe I am just picky but damn can I get please get it so my contact list is not so laggy and choppy when scrolled. I really don't understand. It has to be blur, Rubix focused rom works so much better. I think the Moto interns coded Blur, that is my Theory. Trying Madden now.

  • Confirmed, I pushed for the update at 12:10 and it finished installing at 12:20, did lose root but Z4Root Team hopefully will get that back for us soon. Phone seems faster right off the bat and hopefully will continue to get better the more I mess with it. Madden 2011 is on my phone though I haven't played it yet, wanted to inform everyone about this right now. Now this is what a Droid X is supposed to be in my opinion, FAST!!!! :-).

  • i am unable to get on line on my Droid X.. itsw 2:21am pacific time. Is tis de to te new vrsion release?

  • I am currently downloading 2.3.340 as I type. I have been checking for the update for the last couple hours and it just now worked

  • After I updated my Droid 1, I got to the Droid “red eye” screen and it hasn't moved from there… what should I do?

  • Best part of the update that I can see is now contacts pop up when you are dialing there name instead of searching through conacts or dialing the whole number. Oh yeah and madden.

  • It looks like you need to have the stock keyboard (not gingerbread) restored, cityid and vvm. dont need blockbuster/amazon. thumbs up to move to top. update is out for some owners not in the network. i am not in the feedback network and got the update. i have the update.zip on my pc. its in /cache on the phone

  • No data for me neither. It sows I have 3g but no data. The incoming arrow on 3g stays litup consantly for some reason.

  • After update I cannot get my moto droid 1 to get data service at all. I'm running on strictly wifi now. Any advice?

  • I just installed the update OTA. Don't notice any functional difference except that Swype doesn't work. I like SwiftKey better anyway.

  • My phone crapped out 100%. Tried to pull the update, phone went haywire, factory reset 3x now, cant get anything going. WiFi wont stay connected, no 3G (or any other cell service). Phone says I am without a Motorola service account. But it wont let me set up an account (it says the update is waiting, pending setup of an account). I am a member of the MFN. Hopefully VZW will have some answers in the morning, although they rarely do. Might be the most useless service techs in the world.

    • I had it rooted (z4root) with no roms or themes. Update worked fine. It took away root access, though…

  • Successfully updated in NM, and it's “Madden”ing! I'm probably too tired to make a decent review, but… as others have reported: Root is gone. No easy access to Z4 to try. No 3G data.

    Regardless, thanks Moto! We love updates, but please unleash our bootloaders…

    Oh, and it's not Gingerbread… LOL! Good night…

  • I pulled the update 25min ago and i hit download but nothing happened… no little arrow in my notifications, nothing. But when i hit system updates again it tells me there is a download in progress and it will notify me when its complete… should I be alarmed by the fact nothing is happening???

  • Just got the update installed…looks like the text time issue has been resolved. Phone seems more responsive as well…might just be me though. Madden is there…and it wants you to download more content to play, which is kinda good news only in so much as it doesn't add anything besides an Icon from the update.

  • OMG I'm gladly eating my words… but after how long Froyo took totally understandable.

    But I just started downloading the DROIDX update. I'm in Cincinnati, so anyone in that area should be getting it as well. Here's to hoping it fixes my orientation and speaker problems on the DROIDX.

  • Haha what you should write is, if you live in certain places you might get the update, don't make it sound like just if you have a DROIDX you'll get it when it's ready cause that's BS!

    Took forever for me to get Froyo and I live in a large city. Stupid Verizon!

  • got the update like 30 min ago and my internet will not work. anyone else have this problem/know how to fix this?

  • Another hour and 15 minutes or so and it will be in the data stream. Barring any major problems about 1000 users will get the update tonight.

  • Just send it. I mean really what is this all about. If I'm verizon, I hear this rumor, I squash it. If I'm verizon and its not a rumor…push the damn thing!!!! Sick of the bugs on this device. My service costs me what I could buy a small car for. The device itself is over $400 if I have to buy it out right. Come on Verizon!!!

  • Be patient… another couple of hours or so. I'm fairly certain it's push only tonight so trying to pull it won't work. Make sure the X is either on the charger or on standby with a full battery.

    • When I tried a pull about 15 minutes ago it said the system was down. So pulling might not work and the push might be starting? I am in the MFN but didnt get the email. Really hoping it comes anyway, push or pull.

  • Lol awww sh*t, im running fission, wen i go to system updates, i only get a blank screen for eternity. i just got settled in too haha im guessing its cuz im blurless.

    btwfyi, my dx hit 300m wen i first got it the week it was released, then the first update came and i culdnt go higher than 300. until i installed fission, my average ram dropped to the point that i.nvr went higher than 250. i hope dx gingerbread gets that fixed. evn bttr, this froyo? update hopefully fixes that. i likez mah ramz

    • ru on the feedback test group? only they get it and IF it goes well, the rest of it get it a few days later. read the update ^^^^

  • Also if you're rooted or have the leaked patch I don't think you'll receive the push tonight, but I'm not sure.

  • The update tonight is PUSH only from what I'm told. It won't be pushed for about 2 1/2 more hours. Only selected users will receive the update tonight.

  • I still can't get the 2.2 update.. Any ideas?. Its frustrating the hell out of me.. My phone says it is up to date but running 2.1 -update1 . Also if 2.2.1 comes availible will i be ok to upgrade from what i have to 2.2.1 or is it a step process where I would have to have 2.2 before 2.2.1

    • i can only infer ur still stuck on that leak from forevr ago that culd only b undone thru sbf flashing. u need to giv mor info. ru talking about the first or second froyo leak? or ru talking about something different

      • If I am still running 2.1.1 will I still get the 2.3.340 or do I have to upgrade to 2.3.15 before I can get the new update? Im not rooted

        • as long as u r not on a leak version, u shuld b able to recieve this update one way or another. seeing as how they r messing with the update service now, im not sure if u culd update now to the current froyo version and then wen the new one comes out u can get it. but if not then ull find out how itll go down later. im sure if it does one giant jump, ur phone will b down for awhile cuz itll hav ALOT of ui and system changes to deal with.

          bottomline: in my own opin8on, i wuld say u will b able to get the newest froyo version

  • When I try tried to check if the system update was out for the Droid X my phones said, “System update” is not available without a Motorola service account. What does that mean. I am rooted.

  • just got an email from Motorola feedback network saying the droid x final testing software of a new update will be pushed tonight for review.

  • About time… 2.2 has been quite a disaster for me since it came out. Hope this fixes all the problems i've been having!:)

  • About to reload my stock 2.2 OTA rom from backup. I already miss Rubix!!! Glad I did not upgrade to any of the leaks but hopefully you guys that did will not run into any problems. I'll wait and see if being rooted will cause any problems. Don't care if I lose root, I just don't want to brick the phone.

  • At the risk of sounding truly dopey, all I want is to be able to download Adobe flash player on my Samsung Fascinate. Will this be possible?

  • If you are running 2.2.1 leak, you will not be able to downgrade and then update to this new build. We will have a fix for you though. Be patient. 🙂

    And if you are just simply rooted, you can upgrade no problem but you will likely lose your root access.

    (Please “like” this comment.)

    • I unrooted but my DX still boots up in the bootstrap recovery? Will I get the update ok? And if not how do I get bootstrap to go away?!

    • Kellex… I swear nobody reads your posts. It seems the same questions keep getting asked over and over again even though you answered them.

    • My droid x is rooted with z4, i have bootstrap, i also have titatanium backup (and it is freezing a bunch of apps) as well as dx overclocker. What do I need to do in order to upgrade? And do I need to worry about bricking my phone? (I do NOT have any custom ROMs)

      Also, I am not sure if this is for the general public as I received the e-mail from motorola as one of their software testers and in the e-mail it says that it will be beta tested by us before being released..

    • LIKE! you are correct. My update came this morning and my root is now gone. will need to re-root. 🙁 oh well.

  • If i have the 928 droid theme will i half to un theme first? to get update or will it brick me if i dont?

  • So if I'm rooted I can search for it? Is it worth it to get it right away? Because once you go through with it you can't go back right?

  • weeeweeee.. What if I'm rooted? Will this work with the leak? What if i'm on rubiX, can I still update? What if I have an iPhone, can I still pull this update? What if my old VCR needs some love, will it work?

  • even if this does remove root I'd bet on the z4root team restoring it before the end of the week

  • when the DX finally gets 2.3 will the notification bar be black NS is showing or will Motorola override that with the ugly light gray that's there now?

    DX non-rooted

  • will i need to backup my data before i update? and also, do i need to reinstall all the apps that i have downloaded?

  • One question: If I am rooted (only for two apps: Wireless Tether and DroCap) can I just install this OTA as normal or should I unroot first?

    • I would recommend unrooting, you can pull the update after unrooting very easily. I am positive that at most 24 hours will go by and the developers will have the new update implemented into their ROM's. z4root will most likely work right off the bat with this update also. You might as well just unroot if you want this update.
