Issues with Today's OTA - consolidated for tracking

[Rubik76]

Am I to understand that many people here who installed the update did not have their phone reset itself automatically? Mine did, in several stages. $29 plan, btw. Battery life has improved today, but it may be pure coincidence.

You should have had a reboot after accepting the OTA, and then a few minutes (max) of installation. I can't remember if this one involved another reboot after that. It never hurts to do a manual reboot on your own as well, as some people have discovered.

What exactly does going *228 do? Is this a reset where it will also mess with my aps or settings?

Depending on the option you choose, it'll update various network settings in your phone. The most common use is to update your roaming profile (I think it's option 2, although I just dial *22899, which does everything automatically). It will NOT change any apps or settings.

I'm on a 29.99 plan and got the OTA last night. No issues with it yet.

I had a couple of issues when it first happened but after a battery pull and a reboot everything seems to be working well now.

One thing I've noticed since the update today, is that when I get a text message, I normally just click on messages on the home screen to read an reply to them.

However, after today's update, it seems like the notification on the top of the screen does not clear. It still stays there and the green LED continues to blink.

Anyone else having this problem?

installed fine - no issues - $29.99 plan

$29.99 plan, no issues. I have noticed that the android software is taking up less resources which didn't drain my battery as fast today. Nice little improvement.

Just talked to my wife 5 minutes after doing the update with no echoing issues.

I've had sporadic echoing issues with every smartphone I've owned. It's not an Incredible issue.

29.99 plan> update this morning. No problems that I'm aware of. I love my incredible except for the battery life. I have no service @ work so I use wifi all day. I seem to get gMail fairly quick. < a minute.

Exchange sync is fully supported under both VZW $45 and $29 plans, so I would expect everyone to get a fix for that feature set on the Inc.

Late last year when the Droid was released, there was some incorrect information posted on some sites on exchange active sync support and VZW accounts that made it seem like activesync required the $45 plan, but that is incorrect, and was verified by a Verizon spokesperson. The $45 plan is only required for corporate-sourced phones, i.e., your company gives you the phone, rather than you getting it from a VZW store yourself.
