Do you own a Droid X???  Read this, you will be glad you did!!
Droid X
I love cell phones and the technology that they provide, I just cant get enough! I have been known to start talking to a complete stranger just to see if they know about the latest update, etc... Hopeless I am, but if I ever lose my day job I can go to work for “Big Red”!

I can not believe when I talk to people that own a Droid X that they are not aware that “Gingerbread” update is available for their phone! I have a Thunderbolt and I am foaming at the mouth waiting for it to come to me!!

So go to “settings” then to “about phone” then “system updates”, download and install!! The phone reacts SO much quicker than before and they have made the whole experience better.  It is so much fun finding all the new options I am not going to tell you what they are.....

Once you have done it let me know what you think!!!

I am not a Droid owner either but I think I'll go update my beast of a blackberry that I'm trying to convince myself to replace :0)

I own a Droid X and must be living under a rock because I was not aware of this update.  I did a Google search and it's everywhere.  LOL   Downloading it now.

Melissa,

 

I'm an Iphone guy, but I just heard a radio host going on about all the droid apps. Looks like you found a good one.

Melissa, I have a Droid Charge by Samsung. I followed your instructions, but my updates were current. I will have to go and check out this "Gingerbread" app. I was not familiar with it.

Melissa,  Was just fixing to blog a post and will anyway but saw your post.  I am so in the stone age, I am still working on the Palm platform and ready for change.  I would love to hear your praises of Droid and if you have ever used i-phone.

I have the Droid 2, hoped that I could follow your instructions for a good update....no such luck.  I often have issues with mis-dials when trying to call recent calls (it picks up the number before) and muting the line with my cheek, I still am happy with it though...Hope you enjoy your gingerbread!

I'm glad you love this app so much.  I googled it and am waiting to read a bit more before I download.  But thanks for sharing your excitement with us!

I have an HTC EVO with the gingerbread update!  The system runs smoother, with cool updates to the calendar and such.  I love using my droid phone.

I've really come to depend on my droid for almost everything.  Thanks for the interesting app.

Good information for Droid users. I have the Galaxy Android, but it doesn't have a system update function:(
