2.2 Update Droid X

So last night I received a notifiaction that there was a software update...assuming this was 2.2, as I read in some recent post, Verizon started sending them out yesterday afternoon....Before I could review the update and install, my battery died.  When I recharged enough to turn the phone back on, the notification, and update were gone.  I went to my system to do a manual update check...said my phone was up to date with the latest software.  My system still says 2.1.  Does anyone know if you miss an update or notification, do these get resent, or do I just need to keep manually checking, or will they eventually send another update notify to my phone.

 

Any comments would be greatly appreciated!

I haven't been lucky to get the opportunity. But what you can do is take out the battery of DX and then put it back in. That should reactivate the update now alert. Or you could try the *228 and spark up the phone.

I just chatted with Motorola about update to 2.2 and all they said was it was coming late summer.  I reminded them that the official calendar only has 4 days of summer left--they just repeated the statement "late summer" so I wonder if it will be revised to fall or late fall or early winter or late winter---it just keeps getting put off and I need flash player!!!

Funny you say that, the other day i had a pop up for an update. it was a screen that explained info on the 2.2 update had some info about it and instrutions on how to install it, it had a place at bottom to touch that said "OK"  i clicked ok and nothing happend. The screen just went to home screen and when i tried to check for software it said i was also up to date with the 2.1 still installed......... I have no idea what that was about.

it appears that some dx owners are receiving vzw messages stating that an update is available because they previously owned the droid1 before switching to the dx.

At this time the 2.2 software update has not been released for the Droid X.  We will provide information to you as we receive it.

Well, Verizon needs to get on the ball. I'm tired of being told by certain web sites that my phone does not have the flash player to watch video. I'm also tired of the stuck pixels in camera mode. Not to mention, this is my second X because of stuck pixels.

my guess for this update alert is that now is when verizon had planned to send it out in the beginning but things dont always goes as planned and they just overlooked the system alert they already sent out

Are you trying to tell us you have NO information about this?

 

 

 

I think we are way past the point of believing that.

 

 

 

Of course you know what's happening, at least be honest and say there is an issue with exchange and the update has been delayed 1-2 weeks, bla bla bla....whatever the real story is.

 

 

 

I do, however, have serious doubts about this since the Droid and Droid 2 both have the 2.2 update. There is no significant difference between the DX and D2 from a hardware standpoint, so what is the REAL issue?

 

 

 

I purchased this phone with the belief that the 2.2 update was only a few weeks away.

 

I need the 2.2 update so I can access flash-enabled sites for work ( I teach online and the course shell uses a lot of flash content).

 

 

 

I'm not just looking for videos on Hulu, the lack of 2.2 is preventing me from using the phone as intended and I am extremely disappointed with Verizon and Motorola.

 

 

 

I never thought I would regret leaving AT&T and my iPhone for the Dx just a few weeks into owning it, but two months later and no update?

 

 

 

Appalling.
