  • And they don’t. Tech support is horrible from Cin Bell. Management is even worse.

  • Hmm being from Cincinnati, if I didn’t hate Cin Bell (used to work for them) this would intrigue not to mention they need better phones. But yes, Verizon take a note.

  • lol if Cincinnati Bell had some of the goodies Verizon did I’d be on board, living in Ohio and all.

  • “If Verizon did this, we would all be in paradise.”
     
    I disagree. If Verizon handed out a how-to for rooting and basically endorsed the idea by providing a one-click method, it would be a living hell for the majority of us. Do you realize how many noobs would give it a try, totally mess things up, and then flood forums with the same questions? Do you know how many “help, stuck in a bootloop” or “what ROM/kernel/theme is the best for me” threads are already out there? Imagine how many more we’d be looking at if Verizon followed the plan of Cincinnati Bell. The average smartphone user (which is the majority of them) has no need to root their phone. This would only cause headaches for everyone else. I sure would hate to work for Cincinnati Bell’s tech support right now.

    • I welcome it. I was a huge noob when i started. As dumb as this sounds android changed my life. Now im obsessed with technology and im about to be on my 3rd year at college doing computer science/program engineering. It all started with reading this website about cool apps for my OG droid 🙂

  • its probably just the fact that they are too lazy to get someone to actually work to get a OTA and this was the easiest way to do so, however i bet if you Root after the update your “warranty” is back to voided….very strange indeed.

    • Or they didn’t want to put all that stress on their towers by having people use all that data. This is a local phone company that reaches cincinnati to columbus basically.

  • Android fragmentation at its finest (and I mean that with all the love in the world for my OS of choice)!  Can you imagine what a clusterf**k it would be if Verizon recommended that all Android users root and perform this kind of upgrade?  Mwahaha!  There’s really good reasons that only power users and geeks root their phones and get SU.

  • As much as we like to see something like this, imagine a non tech savvy, everyday smartphone user trying to do something like this. Cincinnati Bell better have good tech support.

  • The best part of those instructions is pages 16 and 17 where they clearly took a picture of the recovery screen using an iPhone. The apple logo is right there in the reflection, looking all jealous of the rooting going on.

  • The funny thing is, right now it looks like CBW just took the froyo ROM we already had at XDA and reposted it as their own. Still has the issues we have in our ROM. Points for effort though… 

    • That’s kind of lame, but I have to admit I’d think it’s cool if VZW let out an official “update guide” for the OG Droid that was really nothing more than instructions on how to install CM7.

  • This is what android updates should be. The ability to save all their data in my opinion shouldn’t need to be a root feature. I think if all the root feature were on android without the need to root would put android over the top (even though it already is). I just don’t know how to make it more precautionary for those who are not tech savvy.
