It looks like the Motorola Droid X may FINALLY get the latest and greatest Android – 2.3, also known as Gingerbread. Supposedly Verizon received Motorola’s build about a month ago, but rejected it. Now it’s rumored that Motorola’s second try has been given the green-light by the wireless overlord. This news hasn’t been officially confirmed or denied by either Motorola or Verizon.
If it’s true then the rollout would likely begin in the next few days. So far no users have reported receiving the update. The Droid X currently runs Android 2.2.1 and system version 2.3.340 and still claims it is up to date when asked to check for updates.
For those users who have rooted their device and are running an unofficial version of 2.3, you can find instructions on an upgrade path over at MyDroidWorld. Those running stock devices should begin making periodic checks for updates as it may available that way before being pushed.
