Open up sdx system remover and backup marketupdater.apk and googleapps.apk and vending.apk, search for that file on you sdcard and upload it for us less fortunate people.

Did you get any notification or anything that would let you know this was happening?
This pertains to my interests. Please upload files so that I may have sexy time with them.
i suddenly noticed it today
Just as I posted, I noticed my screen came on. So I went to unlock my phone to see wtf was up and a notification box came up. I was dragging the unlock button simultaneously as this happened, and it disappeared. I really, really want to know what it said. I feel lucky for an update of some sort.
So what exactly does this look/do? I wanna see if mine updated or not lol

I guess the best part is an 'update all' button. though I didn't think that the froyo market worked on 2.1 but maybe i'm wrong..
If you think about it, none of the froyo market features really required the jit compiler or c2dm that froyo has so it should work on 2.1 easily

Works great. http://www.mediafire.com/?guzc15buvzqnkmc
Just don't get confused by the filename. remove the '.zip' from the end, then install like a normal apk.
I didn't get any notification or anything. I didn't realize it was different until I saw this post and checked it

Nope just was in system updates this morning. Very happy for those that own one since this is considered a "dead" device. I started doubting the recent purchase of it for my wife but now that she has it, the battery life will be greater with the extended battery and she'll have the newest software. I may troll around here just to keep the forum moving.
nothing new here. I thought GB was only getting pushed for DroidX this week

What would happen if the system updated by itself while my device was rooted? What would happen if it updated while many system apps were frozen by Titanium?

Don't quote me on this but I don't think that it will automatically install by itself. I manually installed it on my wife's phone. Not sure about the system apps.
Sandman, could you try and locate the update file on your device and upload it for the impatient users like me ... ?

It's actually on my wife's phone and sadly I am at work. I will try and do it when I get home. Fingers crossed.
Ah cheers for that But heres the big question again ... was your wife's Pro rooted when she got it? I am always unsure with that ... last time for the update, I didnt unroot and left some apps frozen and it was absolutely fine. This time I am not so sure though ... :/

Does anyone have any screenshots? Didn't see anything listen for what was changed in Gingerbread....I just ordered a Pro after having the original Droid, and Incredible, Fascinate and also iPhone. May give my girlfriend the Pro since her Ally sucks slow-no memory.

I can post some tonight. Didnt really see anything different at first glance besides the confirmation of the software version. And that it was a lil snappier.
Here are a few of the updated phone. Gonna look into update file now.

Since when do we root users wait for anything?
New android market out here:
http://www.mediafire.com/?vdocx41t37rnn6y
Install via adb or root explorer. It will install over the old market, FYI.
version 3.0.26
I've been using it for a couple of hours and man, the UI got one huge overhaul. I haven't checked out the new books and movies section much, but from what I've seen, Google put a lot of work into updating the market's image.

Using root explorer what directory do you copy it to? Tried System> App and didn't work
Just install the apk file, it will be installed over the old market.

Anyone had any luck with the movies? I've seen some people say that rooted devices can't view the movies. If so, would there be a way to make it think you were unrooted while still maintaining root? Script or otherwise? Just curious.

Don't buy the movies. You can pay for them, but not watch them.

Even if a dev can't hack the market to think we are not rooted, what about a root toggle?

It's not merely because you're rooted. You hacked your framework and therefore can remove drm that the content providers have asked google to put in place.

download the file to your phone, go to 'downloads' folder and select the file, it'll install automatically and overwrite your current market app... no need to use root explorer or adb
edit: also is it just my phone or does the list of apps/games you're browsing through ('entertainment' apps for example) go back to the freakin' top of the list every time you download something? this gets very annoying the further down the list I get
I have a rooted atrix already so this is pointless to me. but could be helpful to others. I have tried some of the automatic rooting programs and apps but failed miserably. so had to do it the old fashion way!!
but i came across this and it looks very promising.

has worked on other motorola devices. so who knows. could be a timesaver!
As if the one click root option we have already is too long a process?

This might be something to take a look at:

I bought MyBackup Pro or something like that. It has a pretty good UI. I use it mainly to back up texts to their cloud. They have a demo version if you wanted to check it out.
Just root it. Its pretty safe. Make sure you get a recovery that works.

I use titanium backup as just a means to keep the apks of apps I've bought and and downloaded off the market so I can reinstall them after flashing a ROM. Restoring apps + data causes me nothing but trouble as in apps going 'rogue' and draining my battery by not letting my phone go to sleep. A fresh start for every app is recommended.

Ive managed to root it, although the bootloader is still locked.
Are there any simple "one click" ways of unlocking this too?
