Android 2.1 Leaks for Droid and Droid Eris

For all of our Verizon Android users out there, if you're willing to take the chance, you can finally get Android 2.1 for your Motorola Droid or HTC Droid Eris, unofficially of course. So far, we've seen reports that the ROM is working good (here for the Droid Eris) once you figure out how to flash it (here is information about how to do it on the Eris). Here's some information on getting it to work on the Motorola Droid. Here is some more information and a video of it running on a Droid. Many believe this will be the update that will be pushed OTA, but there's no word on when that might happen.

Update: The other big news here is that the ROM for the Droid Eris also includes HTC's SenseUI, which is the first time we've seen SenseUI on an Andriod 2.0+ ROM. This paves the way for the other HTC Android devices and confirms that SenseUI will run on 2.1.

Verizon HTC DROID ERIS Available Friday

If the new Verizon DROID is too expensive for you, Verizon is also launching the DROID ERIS on Friday, for $100 less (although you also get less features). It is comparable to the Sprint Hero and will be available for $99.99 after a $100 mail-in-rebate. It features a 5 megapixel camera, 3.2-inch capacitive display, WiFi, 3.5mm headphone jack, and microSD expansion up to 16GB, so you would be passing up a faster processor, physical keyboard, and hi-res display if you went with this device.

The “Droids” are coming. All of them!

For the past few weeks, all I have been hearing about is DROID! Droid does everything you want; Droid is everywhere you need it to be (like Times Square), and it’s “App-Mashing and Multitasking”. Seems like another awesome phone, right? And that’s where we are wrong.

Droid is not just a phone; it’s a series of phones. In fact, it is the name for Verizon’s entire Android phone selection. What is the real name of the phone we have been calling “Droid” you ask? It is known as “The Sholes”, although it may simply be called Droid by everyone else. Another one of the Droid phones is the “Droid Eris” - -A phone that HTC calls the HTC Desire. We can expect to see the Eris on November 6^th.
