OTA Update Starting today?

I may try calling in with an issue I have been having that's bothering me. We'll see, but I have to wait for lunch... only about 45 minutes.
 
I just called VZW and told them I was having issues with my phone. Within 10 minutes, got a popup for the update. nice.

So we can conclude:

1. Someone at VZ can force update you, but not everyone at VZ can.

2. It was just luck on the timing, meaning that midnight releases could very well be false.
 
I just called my local VZW store here in Redmond, WA and they said they could NOT perform the updates. Oh well :|

So I called up the store and they told me they couldn't do the update in store but that I'd have to wait for the OTA. So much for anyone at Verizon know what they're talking about at this point. What they SHOULD do is just make it that if you want to force the update upon yourself is that you can do it through a wireless connection instead of over the Network. Oh how it was so much easier to get updates on my Storm through websites since it was such drama for Verizon to actually be on the the ball with updates. :)

Have you called VZ back with this info? I would demand the OTA Update, immediately!!! :D
 
I hate to say this, i tried to give it time, and resetting my phone ect. But I am now getting force close's like mad! Expecially in the media player, gallery ect. This is frustrating.
 
I wished someone would have got the update zip off the sd card before updating its driving me crazy! the only thing im wanting to see if it helps my reception and if it does the other fixes is just iceing on the cake for me
 
Im not sure if the OTA update has caused this but I never had force close's before. I am going to re-upload my songs and see if this helps.
 
to the people that have the update:
is the "in call" screen able to be in landscape now? with the phone in a dock or the keyboard open during a call, the incall screen is portrait pre-update, has this changed?
 
I hope you are joking. If not JUST READ THE DANG THREAD.

I tried to goggle it and nothing happened.

Anyways enough making fun of people who don't take the time to look for themselves... I'm still waiting patiently for my update. Nothing doing here in Chicago for me. Excited to see the suttle differences here!
 
Hmmm i dunno why all your media would cause that problem? Anyways thanks for the post! I'll keep that in mind if I am having problems when I finally get the update.

Goggle is Google's new image search. How did you get an image of the update with your camera? Were there any matches in Google's new Goggle search?
