Hi, my name is Mark, and I bruised my thumb from hitting 'check for updates' too many times a day. It's been 2 Days, 6 hrs and 11 minutes since the last time I clicked... It's been one minute since the last time I clicked 'Check for updates.'
 
I do think it is important to remind people that This roller coaster was brought to you by each other and not VZW not HTC.

If the update doesn't come this month, you can start blaming HTC who tweeted it was coming in September

It looks like Verizon changed the PDF yet again. It is back to the older version which talks about Gingerbread, but has the newer build number (4.06.605.3). Still says "Coming Soon" though, so who knows when it will actually be released.

Maybe the "social media manipulation team" has been watching this thread? They must have called the "marketing team".

Imagine that call:
Really, you need to put the OS bit back on the file.
That's what people are waiting for.
No we're not kidding.
Yes, it really is called Gingerbread.
No we're not kidding.
Update the file or we release the dingos.
Nevermind, just do it.
 
Hello, This is Jim....who is not affiliated with Verizon in any way (I just had to...LOL)...but I do have some good news from Verizon. I called VZW support today to activate a new phone on one of my other lines. I mentioned to the lady I was waiting for my little slice of Gingerbread for my Incredible. She did some checking and then told me the update was just approved yesterday. She didn't know if that meant VZW or HTC approved it...but that it WAS approved. She then checked back when Froyo came out the update was actually pushed within a week of that update being approved. So.......if this update is going the same route hopefully it should start being pushed within the next week.....barring any interference from lobsters, dingos, spidermonkeys or zombies.

Typically, when an update is approved it is pushed that following Monday/Tuesday (likely Tuesday, after Labor Day). However, there have been MANY cases of an update being approved, and then pulled last minute. So, while this is good news, let's not get our hopes up.

I wouldn't be surprised if they delayed the update rollout until the week of the 12th because next week they'll have a bunch of workers on vacation.

And I just realized it has been more than a year now since I got the Froyo update.

I got my phone last August and the update wasn't for a few months after. I believe Froyo came in November...I could be wrong. :p
