People about to do update

Ok guys we need the log cat of the update process so we can all get the update right now.
If we can get 1 person to do this, EVERYONE will be able to download the update and start immediately.

If you need SDK it can be downloaded here
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
First connect your phone to your computer with debugging ON
If you are on leak it should be something like this Settings-->applications-->development-->Usb Debugging.
On 1.5 it should be somewhat the same but i don't know the exact path to enable debugging.
Make sure you have a check next to the Usb debugging .

then GO to your android-sdk/tools folder

well it depends where your adroid sdk is installed
if its at the root of your install it could be something like this
Code:
cd C:\android-sdk/tools
if its installed on your desktop
id be something like this
Code:
cd C:\Users\Your_user_Name\Desktop\android-sdk\tools
to change directories just put "CD" before the path of your tools directory

and then run this command.
Code:
adb logcat > logcat_accept.txt
Then start the update process.
This will make a txt called logcat_accept that will have all the info about what your phone is doing during the update process.
Like where its going to get the update.....
This command will keep writing until your phone reboots (at the end of the update)
after that just either upload the txt to pastebin.com or attach it here then someone like me or anyone can look for the link.
 
not trying to get side tracked here but is it a known fact that those with leaked versions will not get the OTA?

This was on vzwsupport twitter
Code:
@KylaAlive The update will be sent to all Eris owners. No worries. *ZC
 
As simple as it all sounds, I have never even mounted my phone to the PC. So even that seemingly elementary part of the process is foreign to me.
If I get the OTA, I will give it 1 shot. Perhaps the directions will become clear as I am doing it and seeing things.
But I doubt that I will be the one to help.
 
i posted it because i don't know how to do it.....pretty straight forward...

then GO to your android-sdk/tools folder and run this command.

how do i do that...

don't make a mad smilie face at me.

Its really not hard.
Thanks for pointing that out.
I have a hard time believing that you dont know your way aroung command prompt...:D
 
Also the part about connecting with Debugging on.
Maybe when I try it, this will become obvious, how do we know if Debugging is on, and where do we go to toggle it on or off if need be?
 
T2noob, how long should it take?

It should go back to the path like C:\android-sdk\tools$ as soon as the update finishes and reboots that or press control C and it should kill the process.
Also the TXT should be in the tools directory.
