Caution: Android 2.3 Gingerbread OTA Update Bricks Some Droid X
The affected Droid X owners say that after updating, the phone goes to a black screen, and won’t reboot unless the battery is reset. Even then, most people still end up with a bricked phone. On the other hand, some users had a perfectly breezy OTA update and are enjoying the power of Android 2.3 Gingerbread as I write. Use caution.
