Something fishy brewing with 2.1?

I may be looking into this a bit too much...

However, when I would attempt to go through settings to do the firmware update, the past several weeks it was told me "no firmware update is available at this time"

Today, I started to notice a new message that stated "The firmware update could not be completed. Please try again later. If the problem persists, you may need to contact Customer Service Error code:1012"

The way it is worded leads me to believe it IS available, but either I'm experiencing techincal difficulties, or you need to go into a store to complete the update...

Thoughts???

Check you PRI# in setting/about phone/status

what does that mean?

It means that your phone is not connecting to the internet completely, instead of doing a firmware update update you Data Profile, if you still have the same problem then go to your local sprint repair store so they can re-provision your phone or call customer care from another phone and tell then such so they can tell you how to repair it. Usually they would have you do a ##3282# then select edit, then have you enter your MSL then select user name, then press menu and select restore.

Good Luck!

You need to check over at xda, there are about a 1000+ post concerning this problem that came to light Saturday night when damage posted a new Rom.

This is all true. I would recommend rebooting before you take it in, though.
