4.2.2 Sense 5 OTA Incoming

[TrooperThorn]

Verizon has updated their status page here and Mo at HTC confirmed it with Tweets here and here.

It has finally happened.

Yup, mentioned in other threads for a couple of weeks now. Good (but not new) news.

Didn't realize the Knowledge Base was already posted, but Mo's Tweets confirm today is the day.

Tweets from HTC have been historically very unreliable especially when it comes to VZW). I am hopeful for an update today, but not holding my breath.

Agreed. I'm keeping my fingers crossed. Verizon is painfully slow with these.

I'm guessing tomorrow at the earliest.

Downloading an update now, but it's only 14MB. Can't possibly be 4.2 and Sense 5.

EDIT: No idea what the first upgrade was, but after doing that one, I checked new and 4.2.2 and Sense 5 are downloading now (564MB). Downloading now, I'll report back when it's done.

 

[TrooperThorn]

Mine is updating as we speak.

Did you get the mini update too, or just go right to the main one?

Yeah I got the mini one too. Man this big one is taking a long time to download.

I'm on wifi and my wife's DNA is on 4G, and her download is faster than mine. Thanks for nothing Time Warner.

Updating as we speak. Took me probably 15 minutes to download via wifi (also TWC, but business).

My download is at 42% currently on my wifi. The wife's is done downloading, and about 65% through the install at this point. Been about 19 min for me at this point.

 

[hilmar2k]

Update complete, back up and running. Seems stable so far. Now just need to get used to Sense 5.

 

[Hoosiermama]

Mine did a small update first, then when I checked new again, it started downloading a big update. Still downloading...

My DNA freezes while checking for an update. Rebooting did nothing.

 

[Slickyy]

I thought we were getting 4.3?

Nope, 4.2.2. 4.3 may come before 4.4 (end of 1Q 2014), but I don't think that's been decided just yet.

Hilmar2k, Do you plan on starting a first impressions thread or will you discuss that here? I would like to see some comments on real world use and experience before updating myself.

Yeah...

4.2.2 was hot garbage on my Nexus 7. I'm hoping it's better with the Sense 5 UI.
