Gingerbread OTA is rolling out

[Fabolous]

According to this article at engadget:

Android 2.3 update now rolling out to Nexus One owners -- Engadget


If you get this OTA, please, before applying it, grab the update.zip file off of your sd card and post it up. Thanks!

If you're very crafty, you could also get a logcat, so we can find the address on Google's servers.

I'm 99.99% certain they're wrong.

There is not one mention of it anywhere on the web, even Twitter.

I don't believe it. Engadget say thanks to "Thanks to everyone who sent this in" yet I can't see one post on Twitter from someone saying they've got Gingerbread.

I am being optimistically cautious about the OTA rolling out right now. Once we get that "OMG I GOT 2.3!!!!!!" then I will believe it.

 

[MartinS]

Although I posted this in another thread, I think it's hard to believe that there is a roll out same say as the SDK...

Maybe I'm wrong - hope so!

Not sure where Engadget is getting their reports. The Nexus One OTA isn't happening just yet - should be coming in a few weeks.

Just saw this too. Bah Engadget! Got my hopes all up. Oh well, I guess we just need to wait for the Nexus S dump instead

10 days

Hacked Gingerbread ROM is on XDA now

No one got it yet, right?
It's the usual Engadget Scoop...

Oui! Never believe in Engadget. I thought we learnt that lesson ages ago

 

[Rusty]

Engadget pulled the story a couple of hours after they 'broke' it.

The NS will get it first, then the N1, I bet it will be released right after the NS goes on sale.

I hope that's the case

That cheap-ass NS has it already ,i think that 2.3 will be available the same time that piece of plastic is released.

My sentiments exactly...

 

[Rusty]

I dunno about right after, I think there will be a delay to make sure the NS is the only phone with it at Xmas time.

 

[razvan06]

that makes no sense really ...only NS and N1 can have 2.3 ,so i can't see the point of doing that :s
...i don't think they'll hold back on N1 ,in fact it is a Google product.

I could totally see samsung asking for and receiving exclusive 2.3 rights from google for the rest of 2010. I personally would not expect an OTA 2.3 for N1 this year. I hope i'm wrong.

Yeah, I can see that happening, because Gingerbread is all that the NS has going for it.

Seriously, that's just sad.

this thread is depressing. Po' little tink tink.

Lol.. sorry about this, I felt like I had to. Let me know if this violates some kind of somthin'. I'll remove it immediately.

 

[bitxboi]

There's no reason to be pessimistic...it wouldn't work anyway...

The sooner we get Gingerbread, the sooner will people start thinking of getting Honeycomb. Madness

 

[happy0506]

maybe we'll get gingerbread right after the ns is released to show that if you get a nexus branded phone, you get the updates first. might actually be a selling point for the ns. as if to say, "look, the first two phones to get the latest release were the nexus s and one. get the ns and you will never be left behind."

maybe... maybe not...

i'm crossing my fingers!
