How to get FROYO for Motorola DROID without rooting?

Well, rooting isnt such a bad thing.. but then again I was waiting for the official update to be around… and that wait just keeps getting longer and longer.So now, why this post? because there is a way to get the FROYO upgrade without rooting on the DROID… (too bad it isnt up for Milestone yet)

• Grab the file from Android Central, or from nexeo, or from Google 
• If you download from Google, remember to rename it as Update.zip
• Place it on the root of your SD card
• Switch off the phone
• Restart while holding the X key, this will take you to the bootloader
• When you see the exclamation mark, hold the volume up button and press the camera button
• Choose the option apply sdcard:update.zip
• Ignore the cache error if it comes
• Reboot

Troubleshooting:

•  If you get a sign error and it doesn update the phone, redownload the package and try again.
• If you  get a Status 7 error, you probably need to get to 2.1 first…

Its a DIY work for an official release, do it on your own risk….. and if you are geeky enough then please rehash the package for Milestone 😉
