Rename the file update.zip. Remember .zip is the file extension, make sure it\u2019s not renamed update.zip.zip<br \/>\n3. Put the files in the root of your SD card. Make sure it is not in a folder.<br \/>\n4. Power on your device while holding down the letter &#8220;x&#8221; on the keyboard and then hold down the power button. If you do this right you will see a triangle with an exclamation point inside.<br \/>\n5. Press the volume up button and the camera button at the same time. You may have to do this a few times until it goes to the bootloader.<br \/>\n6. Navigate to the update.zip file by using the D-Pad, do not interrupt the process once it starts.<br \/>\n7. Enjoy the bliss that is Android 2.1<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The long awaited 2.1 update for the Droid is finally.
