There you go Droid owners... you get your oh-so-necessary and pretty animated wallpapers! (One of my phones uses Android OS, and it bothers me when I hear people complain and whine because they want their animated wallpapers, because I just see it was a useless, cosmetic battery drainer)

True. It is nice to have a handset that is being worked on, updated, and improved.

Exciting! the photo gallery is what im looking forward too.. being able to swipe past the pics and show people is much easier then its current setup, and the walpapers are cool too..This update should be a nice improvment to an already sweet ass phone

What about us ERIS users? Will Verizon ever let us get the 2.1 upgrade too?

The ERIS is going to take longer to get any software upgrades than the DROID does. The ERIS is running an HTC interface (sense) on top of Android. This means that HTC is going to have to upgrade sense before android OS is updated.

actually HTC has already said the sense UI upgrade is done. In fact the 2.1 ROM leaked a couple of weeks ago is a bulid designed for the Eris. You don't have to root your phone or anything fancy its just like doing a manual upgrade to a device and works pretty well so I am sure its what will get released. As a former VZW employee and you as a current employee I am sure you know they test the crap out things before ever releasing it to the public and rightfully so

Definitely. My roommate has the Eris and he put 2.1 on it. He had to root it and it is extremely buggy. It is not an official release. If it was, it would have been delivered OTA to the handset, like this one will.

a htc rep stopped by my store and showed me his eris with the official 2.1 update and its really sick. you pinch the home screen and it zooms out and shows you all 7 home screens for like a quick selection. you'll see, it dope

I just want my phone to work well. The flash is all cool. But I only use 3 screens anyway. Well 4 if you count my quick dial numbers. I REALLY hope that the update HTC allowed the SLIDE to unlock/answer to be disabled. I'm tired of my phone pocket answering calls.

With the leaked version of 2.1. Hopefully it won't be long till Eris users get the update. I feel though that the Eris being the kid brother to the mega popular Droid. It may be a LONG time. Droid will probably have 3.1 by then. LOL!

I have a stupid question... I have the Eris and did the 2.1 download and everything works great. But my buddy it and it's now some what of a brick. I remember someone stating that you can revert back to the 1.5... is that possible and how he do that. Also what is to "root" your phone... I see that a lot too... Someone please help me... Thanks
