Motorola Droid X Caught Running Android 2.3 Gingerbread?

By Matthew Chung on 12/14/2010 06:09 PDT

With the Nexus S set to arrive with the Android 2.3 Gingerbread operating system, many Motorola Droid X users out there are wondering when they’ll be able to get hold of the update. While this is far from an official update, a video of the Motorola Droid X running an early alpha build of Gingerbread has surfaced and the phone is touted to be running a build number VZW-TestKeys-280657 and baseband version BP_C_01.09.07P. Of course, some folks also speculate that it might be a custom ROM that has been skinned to look like Android 2.3, and we can’t discount that possibility. Still, hopefully it’s a hint that the Android 2.3 update for this phone is just around the corner.

Update: It has been confirmed that this isn’t a Gingerbread update, rather an update to MotoBLUR.

Android Android is mobile operating system from Google. The software was originally built by a company called Android Inc, that was purchased by Google in 2005. From its modest debuts, Android has become a powerhouse that powers not only smartphones and tablet, but a host of other less high-profile devices and gadgets. Although Android is not a community-driven project, Google does release the source code as open-source under the Apache license.
