OTA Update Starting today?

I was wondering if anyone who has gotten the update and has the beautiful widgets download(the one that has the weather/clock widget that is like the sense widget) can tell me if the app still works?

Thanks
 
thanks jestex man...that needed a new thread badly.

Droid 747...don't worry. beautiful widgets will get updated super fast I am sure if there is a problem
 
colnago...i was commenting that jestexman did the right thing by creating a new thread for people who were OFF TOPIC! haha

That, or the fact that only a few thousand will get updated yesterday/today, and there are several hundred thousand scheduled to be updated throughout the week, and its not their turn yet?
 
Keyring seems to have totally disappeared from my phone. I can't find it in the market either. Maybe it's incompatible...

for example, if a tower is owned by Podunk Cellular that operates a single tower for a city of 50 people. They could have a carrier agreement in place where they allow VZ data connections.

It's not unpossible that VZ would block this, as the carrier charges could be expensive, since VZ would be renting the bandwidth from that carrier.

Did I really need to spell that out? ;)
 
Discuss in another thread because the reason people are not getting the update is already known and if you wanna discuss why or why not it says Verizon on your lock screen go do it somewhere else!

I assure you we will all get the update.

I'm not talking about lockscreens or a carrier name on a lock screen.

I'm talking about OTA accessibility. :confused:
 
i was wondering if anyone had the problem with the audio cutting out in one earphone with the volume turned all the way up in 2.0. i had this issue and was told at vzw store that it would be fixed with the update. so can anyone confirm this is fixed with the update, im still waiting for mine :(

Do you even see a single VZW logo in that picture? (edit: beyond which was already there and is only a network location identifier) its not VZW that did anything. Try downloading the SDK direct from Google and poof that new unlock screen is there. Its Google's change. Quit whining about things until you actually at least have an inkling of a clue about that which you're whining!

Read my other posts. Sorry that my dissatisfaction with the look of the lock screen has got everyone's knickers in a bunch. Obvious I should have directed it towards Google for the change. But after all these years I gave Google the benefit of the doubt and not Verizon. (Which one of those two is known for royally messing with cell phone UIs?)


Seriously, this is a forum, it's a place for people to both complain and praise.

I just think the home scree looks like crap. It's no deal breaker. I'm sure I'll still love my droid in the morning, but the curved swipe was slick. The little tab things look like garbage. Why would the even make a change like this in a 0.0.1 point release?
 
If you are wondering about the accessibility of the update you need to use a google search...wow...or read this thread. only 10,000 randoms got the update. Another 200,000 will get them on the 9th and 200,000 more a day from then on. Wow.

Actually yes, because my point was that having the label or not was a "non-issue" because either way, the "DROID" is still on VZ. The issue wasn't related to "people getting or not getting" the update "wi/o VZ on the phone", but rather if after updating, whether or not VZ was on the phone...at least some of the posts.

Either way, not sure why its an issue.

p.s. - Podunk Cellular has a really good data plan and rates.
 
i have no opinion on the lock screen. I don't really care much either way...just want things to be smoother on the phone...The droid seems so choppy compared to the 3GS

So far people seem to be posting encouraging news on that. I think overall the update will be good, tbh.
