[valetdabess]

why can't bill gates just fucking put windows on a fucking phone and make it into mass production...

[Paintballdrumz]

@valetdabess cuz apple did tht. its called the iphone. and microsoft blows

[berrysexplosion]

@valetdabess there are windows mobiles, but im not sure how good they are.

[Triforcehunter161]

@valetdabess Bill Gates doesn't make Windows...

[93661902]

will you recommend this device instead of a htc legend?

[1320smboy]

Hey I have the cliq so I am still waiting for the 2.1 updates. I would like to know if there is a function in the 2.1 where you can resize the icons and font. There is no app to make the font bigger.

pls advice

thank u

[naarIFY01]

Whats the difference? i have the 2.1 ? is this a new update for the phone

[dethtilldeath]

@Babeloe007

Nope, my droid definitely doesn't have that.

[sliim28]

Where did you get that background and and weather widget

[eujeeves]

Anyone else notice the judder when he slides the panels? Might not bother some of you but I'm pretty sure once you've loaded this puppy up with lots of apps that judder is going to get a lot more noticeable...

[dethtilldeath]

What clock app is that on the home screen?

[TheKoodude7]

i got it its awesome

[lsdman14]

i heard this can run flash player and my phone is 2.1 but when i go to a site like hulu it says my phone doesnt support flash player

[BMWadvisor]

Does 2.1 have turn-by-turn directions on Google Maps?

[sonic911]

@BMWadvisor pretty sure it does....i have 1.6 on my myTouch and it does

[1wacked0utKiD]

[miimiibarry17]

[louisross22]

[MrRevengejoker]

i got my update today, with the notification light does it only blink/show when the screen is off? then turns off when you power the screen back on?? reply or message me back people. thanks!

[bravechampion2]

what is that clock widget u have?

[jlb4444]

Is there going to be an update 2????

[MagicManMarkyMark]

I just recieved the 2.1 update 1 on my droid yesterday and it had live wallpapers and yes it does run smoothly, but it did not have the 3-D slide up menu which I was hoping to see, I also do not have 5 home screens but this really didn't bother me for now, I can't wait for the rest of the updates.

[lostrodamus]

@MagicManMarkyMark same here i didnt get 5 screens or the 3-D menu's, i wonder why?...

[FervidSmoker]

@lostrodamus goto marketplace and search Helix

[sotovo]

@FervidSmoker @JohnPariahPWX I'm considering switching over to an android device.

Question: there is a home screen I see again and again with this big calendar and sun display that takes up the top third of the screen, that I do not like. Can this be removed?

What are the options native to android 2.1 for configuring the desktop layout? Thanks!

[velocity896]

@sotovo yes, you can take it off, its a removable widget

[crazychrispblogs]

i didnt get my update today :/

[vlcmstone90]

what clock widget are you runnin?

[gFdeathunlimited]

just got the update and it does have live wallpapers.

[walterwaller]

It can handle the Live Wallpapers because i have them on my droid..

[clannon]

@tomarta: We haven't done the update on my wife's Droid yet. She's waiting for the OTA update. I'll see if it's there.

[clannon]

@tomarta, Thank you, Sir. That option is not on my Droid.

[adicrin]

if you go to settings/Sound and display/ and down down is a option to modify how meany panels u wanna have

[clannon]

@tomarta, how do you enable more screens? I manually updated mine and don't know where to look for the option.

[Britannic1915]

I love the wallpaper and clock! Does it come on the Droid?

[dantanasgirl]

Please explain how you get the 2.1 on the phone in the first place!

[Yakuzagang5]

ESD56 was released as well, which Moto said is the final release update (Most likely)

I have my Droid rooted running CM 5.0.5 w/JIT overclocked to 1.2ghz with no problems :) got the 3D app drawer, LWP's, many many more features :)

Go to CyanogenMod . com for the ROM made by Koush

[sandershed]

Suvior - Thank you for the response - I appreciate it and love the app.

[jlp0214]

Its called Beautiful Widgets, you can download it for like 99 cent euro. It has like 80 different skins. Very nice app

[dan0champ]

I'm getting mine soon in the mail.

That text to voice seems like it would be super fun to just f+*k around with haha

Thank you text to speech whatever haha

[BradsMusic420]

i was wondering if any of you guys knew when the official update will be released. This looks really nice and wanting the update asap.. getting bored with the droid as it is already hah

[sandershed]

Sure would like to know how you were able to obtain the large digital clock, weather and date on your main screen.

[suvior]

the clock, date and weather is called Beautiful Widget in the android market.

[Metomsky]

I Installed the 2.1.. now i cant run my root apps.

This is a hard thing to search for, to get help.

Have you seen this or can you point me in the right direction?

[iSPYyouLIE]

I rooted my droid about 2 months ago with shoels and have all those features.... and I clocked it . Droid needs a update to play flash video.

[jeffocdg]

you know rooting voids your warranty... fail

[iSPYyouLIE]

@jeffocdg ...for someone like you...yes....for someone like me...no.

[possomcrast]

the real droid update is ere53

[HazyStudioVideos]

and google buzz is in my droid but ts not 2.1

[HazyStudioVideos]

Hey a buddy of mine just made an app called appspin try it out rate it high its still being worked on!! and my gallery on my droid does not look like that awsome one you have!

[Juggla17]

I think it's time to put the Droid to bed, the real Android phone is the Nexus and...well it's not doing much to the iPhone market. lqtm

~fin~

[mAlfunkti0n]

@Juggla17 Oh yeah, because some fancy new hardware is out you just stop working on phones that have a MUCH larger distribution. Not to mention in a short time, the N1 will be yesterdays phone as well.

[dethofevil]

@Juggla17 iphone fanboy retard

[Juggla17]

Actually no, I very much like the Palm Pre and Plus and the new HTC HD2. I just own an iPhone 3GS and love it.

[john987098]

true

[Falco98]

any ideas how to get google maps version 3.4, even? the eris currently seems to have 3.1, which doesn't even have pinch-to-zoom.

[PAiN0909]

so this update will be givin to everyone via through the air? or do you have to go download it when its offically released?

[irvine14]

These videos are great.. buuut.. does anyone have a video showing 2.1 during heavy multi-tasking? of COURSE any moto droid is going to be snappy if nothing is running on it haha.. How about, a video showing Navigator running while Pandora plays over Bluetooth audio? (Which is my ideal driving conditions; makes phone run slow using 2.0)

[MrGeeQ]

Motorola makes the droid, your on the wrong video to be complaining about HTC

[slickman32]

will the update have flash?

[iNickster]

When is the Android 2.1 Update 1 going to be available for everyone to download straight to the phone?

[monsey111]

any info when the update will be released?

[Laucheehung]

getting sick of these, htc doird htc nexus htc incredible ht hero htc touch htc whatever pls all the same thing

[fashnek]

@Laucheehung This is the Motorola Droid........ and yes, HTC makes a lot of good smartphones. What's your point?

[Laucheehung]

my point is htc used to make a few very nice phones, now they're constantly just exporting the same rehashed sht over and over again, every two weeks a new htc phone comes out, it's getting old

[fashnek]

I'll take a good phone every week over a decent one every year. HTC is keeping up with the market, so why does release rate matter? They're just very productive.

The fact that HTC phones have been consistent front-runners in terms of specs for some time should indicate something.

[Laucheehung]

Why would anyone need a new phone every week? My point is that they're rereleasing the same thing over and over again - pls bring something NEW to the table - like I said, getting sick of seeing the same sht being released week after week.

[fashnek]

They keep bringing new things, but either way, even if one out of every four phones (by your math, that's two months) has something new, that's still five times faster than some other smartphone manufacturers.

Can't believe someone would try to whine that a company is making too much of a good product.

[Laucheehung]

I think you need to calm down a bit, no need to get butthurt over my criticism, once again, pushing out smartphones five times faster than any other manufacturer is nothing to brag about, big whoop

[fashnek]

It's not bragging, and I'm not defending HTC. Rather, I'm just against your weak argument. I could probably count at least a half dozen common fallacies across the span of your four messages.

Anyway, your opinion became meaningless when you used the word butthurt in a five-part comma splice. It's no matter, since four posts is typically my limit when I try to reason with teenagers on YouTube.

After all, who comes to a video about a Motorola phone and starts ranting about HTC except a troll?

[Lawcheehung]

aha! You finally caught on, took you four posts. :)

Success, you lose.

[exconvictriddick]

@Laucheehung hardware and design, and of course, subsidies. We all know they all the same because it's the same software (OS) running the device. Majority runs on WinMobile. Get your facts straight.

[cdavaz]

Can't wait for this much needed update! =)

[JPPT1974]

Those kind of things are confusing as heck for me.

[nyguy4u]

nice video. What's the app called that's on top of your home screen, with the date/weather/time?? I like that.

[upnadam2create]

Does not look like it is available for mytouch.

[HollowFlight]

my cell phone can call people!

[bernardmarianovella]

@HollowFlight id say!

[TheBulldogWay42]

nooo

[Tevin69]

so when is this coming for the g1

[1papachi]

does the android 2.1 have the flash update?

[thedudeman69]

meh, I hate verizon and every damn phone they come out with.

[mpnigga4life]

iphone is the BOSS

[potatolover1102]

Iphone is an overrated piece of crap now go to your apple place and stop trolling.

[PrimoMooch]

iphone actually is being killed by android

[Polaroidfades]

Yeah maybe in a 1000 Years

[blackpoker]

it actually is coming with the flash. early 2010 they said and this is the new update so it should have flash

[hugz2def]

needs just a bit optimization but looks 100 percent usable

[gabriel20088]

Sucks theres still only 3 wallpapers. 5 would be better.

[gentlefury]

Nice to see. Seems pretty smooth, can't wait to see it OC'd! The about phone doesn't really indicate authenticity tho...my 2.0.1 droid says 2.1, because I edited the build.prop file to be able to install google earth and any other 2.1 apps that come out before the update happens, but you could type 10.1 on the firmware and it would show up in about phone. Not to say I think this is fake..just pointing that out.

[mejdam]

pete has already put this into his Bugless Beast 2.1 ERE25 V0.3,

[JasonVincent]

Go BLAZERS!!!!

[motodroidlife]

@JasonVincent Hell yes! Another big win last night!

[thirdplanetrox]

Super pumped... but I'm kinda pissed i don't get my natrual 5 home screens

[kyledaballa]

5 stars, very professional.

[nemesis2485]

Great review man.

Thanks for going a little in depth.

[josidhe]

Nice quick look there, but man...it really bleeds out that you're a hardcore Google fan when you say "three dot four" in that special, Googly way.

I remember smirking at that when I first encountered it in an official teaser for Android 2.0. Leave it to Google to ditch the way we've said version numbers for more than 20 years.

[max1cp]

I have comment and concern this vid is fake and gay

[KurtangleTN]

Has the car home changed at all?

[MoLo16]

Go Blazers!

[camron302]

whate the name of that clock app?

[cobraboy1997]

Great job of organizing your reviews! Fluid presentations that are interesting.

[marbinlilpunk]

Nice update. Where did you find the update/build?

[sgtmoe93]

when will get the flash ?

[9qwer1]

but....but...the 3d launcher isnt there...or the 5 screens...shitty update

[coltenbuckelew]

iv followed ur website ever since i got my droid i say stick with drodmod rom live wallpapers and i just plain dont like that rom u got there
