On Friday night, HTC released Froyo on their public download server. Some users of Android Police noticed this and alerted the blog administrators. Since I have a HTC Evo, I have been giddy since hearing that it would be coming any day now. With me being a Geek I had to have it now, since there was a leak of Froyo out, why not give it a try. So far I have not run into any problems, all of my data was there like it should be. So let me highlight the big updates that you can now do with the Froyo update.

  • Ability to share applications
  • Display events and birthdays from Facebook on Calendar
  • Use camera LED as flashlight
  • New user interface for the FM radio
  • Add unknown users in Facebook as friends in Friend Stream
  • Photo Gallery supports Facebook comments function
  • Send contact as vCard using SMS
  • Addition of MMS slideshow editor
  • New pre-loaded widgets including Calculator, FM radio, Message list view, Profile settings and Ringtone settings
  • Camcorder can use camera flash so video can be shot at night or in low light
  • Flash 10.1 support
  • Numeric PIN and alpha-numeric passwords to unlock screen
  • Search widget and search bar able to switch to search in different types (web, specific application, or all)
  • Adjustable alarm volume
  • Android Market widget allows installation of applications on SD card

How awesome is that!
