DROID 2 Global owners still can't figure out where the Gingerbread update is. Earlier today we found out that the DROID 2 is very close, but we have a surprise for you DROID 2 Global owners. Build 4.5.606 has leaked and aceoyame made it available for you to download and flash.

You will have to return back to stock 2.4.330 with no root or custom recovery in order to flash this update. Since this is not the official update, you can SBF back to 2.4.330 in order to get it when it becomes available. You could also revert back to root upon doing this.

Instructions:

Download the zip file (or mirror)
Rename file to update.zip and place it in your root directory of your SD card
Hold X as you turn the phone on
Hit the magnifying glass and choose to install

Robert lives in upstate New York where he was born and raised. Technology was always his passion. His first computer was a Radio Shack TRS80 Color that used a cassette tape to save programs, and his first laptop was a Toshiba T1200FB that sported a CGA greyscale screen and two 720kb floppy drives (no hardrive). From the early 90’s through late 2011, he only owned Motorola phones starting with the MircroTAC all the way through to the Droid X. He broke that streak when he bought the Galaxy Nexus. Now he's sporting a Galaxy Note 4, and absolutely loves it. He has a wonderful wife and a 6 year old son. In his free time he enjoys sports, movies, TV, working out, and trying to keep up with the rapid fast world of technology.

You have to use an extractor that supports 7zip format, and extract the .zip from it. It’s a compressed file within a compressed file, so to speak.
