2.1 OTA Beginning 5/11/2010

read this post then...

leakers will not get >THIS< OTA

THIS
OTA that is being sent now, checks the os on the phone, if it is not 1.5 it will skip that phone.

MAYBE they will send out an OTA after this one to try and root out the leakers and get them upgraded, but not at this time.

thats exactly how i feel, im on leakv3 and ive come to the conclusion that i might not get the official OTA, but i still have some hope that vz is planning on getting the 1.5 user updated than work on the leakers, alas only verizon powers that be know exactly whats going on
 
QUESTION: my google search bar isnt working. everytime i click on it..it redirects to the quick search bar! I DO NOT want it to do that...how can i make it stop?

lol!!! I completely agree with you but you have to give old VzwSupport credit for sticking to his guns.

@androidlover300 the 2.1 update has been released. All leak users will receive the update by 5/24. *nk

I got the V3 Leak. Lets hope this is fun. I am going to call Verizon about the silent call issue tomorrow.


On a side note, does anyone else have issues with accidentally hitting soft keys more often with the 2.1 flavor software than the 1.5.
 
I am on V2 and was wondering if i should get V3 cause i want my Licensed Apps Back. Or should i wait for the OTA that MAY Come....

Might as well do it if you're on v1 or v2. Everyone recommends doing a factory reset after the OTA anyway, so you might as well do a flash of v3 since either way you lose your settings and have to reinstall apps.
 
i just checked out the vzwsupport twitter page and there seems to be some solid claims that leakers will be recieving the ota in a few days. That is enough for me for now. My v3 leak issues ( 50% without signal) problems seemed to have fixed themselves after a while. I would still like to get the official for any last fixes and features (friend stream).

I have seen some interesting issues in the ota. I haven't looked at the page regarding the ota bugs but a friend of mine with the ota had only 2 options for htc widgets. I had her check for additional widgets and she was able to download the usual 5 or 6 but she only had 2 options for htc widgets in the main widget area. I thought that was rather weird but oh well.

Bring on the ota VZW. You owe it to all the leakers who helped make this official OTA release happen. I know you look at this forums.
 
Got notification that I had an update available Sat 5/15.
When I check my phone to see if it took, I am still at the 1.5
Is there a way for me to request it to be resent so I can try again?
Thank you so much for your help!!

Was it the system update or an app update?
You can try the *#*#checkin#*#* option.
type that in, DO NOT SEND/CALL, it will do "check-in" automatically and check for any available updates. I get app update notifications all the time, if you clear it, the notification will go away but will return after you do the checkin function.
 
living in nj. got the ota last night. everything went fine. had to delete several apps for memory but phone seems to work better as far as response and I love having navigator
