Verizon’s popular Droid X will finally be getting its update to Android 2.2 (Froyo) starting Wedsesday, according to multiple reports. Users will begin getting system update notifications around noon EST tomorrow. This update will bring the Droid X up to par with the Droid 2, which launched a few weeks ago with Android 2.2 out of the box.
There is one unique benefit of this update. Users will be able to manually update legitimately. By going to Settings > About > System Updates, the phone will actually download the update after it has gone live tomorrow. On other Android phones, this just checks to see if a handset has been provisioned for the push update.
Users can expect a number of improvements to the phone’s software including support for Adobe Flash 10.1, a faster JavaScript engine in the browser, and better Android Market updates. Although, some new Verizon branded crapware , like VZ Navigator, might be making an appearance as well. Any Droid X users out there? Is this an exciting update, or are you over it?
