Motorola Droid

Question about the Google Android Platform?

This may apply to other operating systems as well. I dont know how to word it so ill use an example. So say when the motorola droid gets upgraded to 2.1 later this week, where does the upgrading take place, where does it go to? what part of the internal memory, RAM or software takes in the upgrade? So do phones with more of RAM or software or even the processor speed have anything do to with upgrading the phone to the next software point like going from 2.0 to 2.1?

The up grade will only affect what it is intended to upgrade. It will not alter the RAM. That is what it is, set from the manufacturer’s specs. Generally to upgrade RAM you have to replace the ‘chip’ itself. The upgrade should only work should only work on what it is intended to specifically improve. That will most likely be limited to improvements of program protocols. Anything you read about the update will only be speculation. But Here are what I consider worth while links.

What is the difference between android 1.5 and 2.0?

I want to know what differences there are between the HTC droid eris and the motorola droid. Not the obvious physical differences just the differences in the operating systems like if one can do anything the other can’t. Thanks.

A big difference is the screen. Android 2.0 is one of them, but the screen and the processor are the major differences. Here is a article I wrote about the two phones:
