If I try to change the date anywhere between September 3rd or 9th the date actually sticks and doesn't change back. If I try Sept 30th it flips back.

Okay I woke up with the OTA ready to install
Hit install

Anyone? this is killing me staring at the eye for and hour now
 
BTW.... New boot screen is awesome!

I was in the middle of starting Pandora for the drive to work, when I got the notification.

The whole process took the majority of my commute to work; approx. 15 minutes. Not too many lags, stayed at the "eye boot" for about three minutes then continued.

In the two hours I've used it, I've noticed a significant increase in "snappy-ness" Haven't tried out the internet or anything yet.
 
Finally got the update this am. Didn't seem to really break anything either, cool. Drooooid!

Jealous in Chicago!!!!


On a side note, with the mindset that there was on way that changing ones date on the phone I explained the process to the person next to me at work and then had her watch me change the date, then immediately started making the "wa wa wa wa" noise when an update symbol popped in my notification bar!! Both of ours jaws dropped and I almost shat when I realized that it was just an update that there was new HTC widgets available....HA!! Also, changed the date to Saturday and nothing. :(
 
Got my Froyo here in Indy this morning!! - been playing with it for the last 4 hours.

Runs zippier. :)
None of the lagging issues others mentioned. :)
Whole process took all of 8 minutes to download/install. :)
Lots of neat/updated widgets! :)

Buying bluetooth headset now that I have voice activated dialing. :)
Google Actions now installed - sweeeeet! (for the most part) :)

Battery is very hot when using GPS or web videos. Drains VERY fast :(
 
So last night at roughly 3:10am I was playing with my phone about ready to go to sleep, and all of a sudden, pop hey dood, download Froyo popped up on my phone, so of course I was very excited. I hit "Install Now", set it down and got a drink in the kitchen, used the restroom and came back to see what status my phone was in. Still on the same, "Install Now", "Install Later", "More Info" screen. Crap I thought, I didnt hit the button. So I pushed it again and nothing happened. So I pushed it again and nothing happened, sat there for 10 minutes staring while nothing was happening. So I hit "More Info", gave it a few seconds and then pushed back, hoping it would work now, and the option disappeared. Crap #2 I thought, I gotta wait 30 min until it pops up again, Ill just go to sleep. Wake up today and its still not there. :-( any ideas? is it just gonna get randomly pushed to me again? Should I just do the whole update.zip idea?

FWIW Froyo is AWESOME!!

Interesting that the Verizon store is Reston doesn't have any upgraded Incredibles. (I ordered mine from that very store) I wonder when the rest of us will see the update.
