HTC DROID Incredible to be updated to Froyo end of July, early August Boy Genius Report

Sweet. Now, if I could only get my hands on an Incredible...

 

[foreWard]

saw that a few minutes ago....sweet! I think I can wait a few weeks for some frozen yogurt.

 

[Divine_Madcat]

Yeah.. that "feature list" looks curiously like the one in the original OTA thread here. I am calling shenanigans..

 

[redsoxer]

within 2 weeks ,I'll take that too.

Yes! Another rumor that we can fire up.

 

[hpbatman7]

Hmmmm, would be nice, although for people who are having signal issues, I am not sure they want to wait till Aug....it's so far away...

 

[Terabethia]

Yay!

Guess this means I can stop checking for that other OTA

 

[lilsaphyre]

AH MA GAD
I'd prefer this over the other update! You know, the one I still haven't gotten yet!

 

[teufeltexan]

I wanted to pass along that the upcoming Incredible MR will also include Froyo (originally it was going to be two separate MRs).

That does fall inline with explaining why MichaelWeston's tip got sideways and the OTA never rolled out...

Would be nice - filing this under the "Great if it pans out!" tab...




*But, I ain't clearing my calendar for late July/early August until I see something from HTC/Verizon on this...

 

[Terabethia]

within 2 weeks ,I'll take that too.

To me this means anywhere between today and a month from now.

"Early August" is pretty much anything between Aug 1-15.

My guess is we'll see it later as opposed to sooner. IF this is real (who the hell knows anymore?!) then it'll probably happen closer to that Aug 15th date.

Have to admit, it wouldn't surprise me at all if HTC isn't really busting their butts to get this out before the Droid X does.

gizmodo just posted it too

Edit: sorry, just noticed they got it from BGR

Well in a few weeks, The Incredible has gone from being a Big Red bastard stepchild to possibly being the hottest cake, all through the internets. I will take that Frozen Yogurt with some dark chocolate please.

It may very well be plausible in the next 2 weeks or so. Strategically placed Ninjas rule.

 

[ikediggety]

also, those of us who've already installed the leaked OTA will probably want to roll back to stock before installing this.

Except the top line item says: FROYO

Your link is to Gizmodo, not engadget.

Big Red bastard stepchild

Call it what you will, but I love mine as much as my own kids... almost. ROFL

Oh and that Dark chocolate could use a cherry. Red? Get it? Heee I'm so excited I've enarly forgotten that I missed my Fed Ex shipment.

 

[ramcharger1979]

We shall see. When my phone tells me an update has arrived then I will believe it.

 

[sail4fun201]

im really excited about this. "by august" = 12 days?

Oh I was just kidding I love mine (not sure as much as you do yours though LOL).

Incredible for me, Droid X for wife, Android rules in our house.

 

[BuickGS67]

Mmmmmm...Froyo! I'm getting hungry for it!

Since the OTA leak was technically an update and not major firmware change (like eris going from 1.5-2.1) would there be really be any issues? Just curious as I'm a noob when it comes to these things.

It contained a radio update.

So, yes, it could possibly fail to install or brick your phone if you installed it over the OTA leak.

You would want to downgrade first.

This might make sense actually... In Weston's thread there was someone who sounded like he knew what he was talking about and said that the MR was pushed back two weeks because of a failed test. Hopefully the next test doesn't fail.

Im betting it won't happen. I read in the other thread that the update was coming with froyo in early august to START testing. Therefore you won't get it until a couple weeks later or possibly more.
