I had a dream last night that it got delayed until Sep, 2012. May it be known that the 17 people who were still running the Inc were frickin ecstatic.
I intend to continue using my Inc as a PMP indefinitely. I'm using a T'bolt as my phone, but when I'm at home (with wifi on) I'd rather use the Inc for most things.
I look forward to the eventual OTA to Zucchini Bread.
You forgot the gargoyles!! Why does everyone forget the gargoyles??!!!
Kitty looks mad.
Since I'm rooted and running one of the GB roms that came out of the leak a few weeks back, I'm not chomping at the bit over this any longer. I will flash another rooted rom from the official release when it happens and then that's that. NE2 due 12/29 with an LTE rig in my future since 3G blows chunks where I work due to the university up the street.
Tanks for the lulz in this thread, you folks rock.
Gotta dash, there's a dingo at the door.

When I woke up this morning I had an on-screen note that a system update had been performed and got my permission to restart. Any info on what this update was?
And if I am running rooted with the original factory ROM, will those updates actually work?
My software version says 2.2, baseband 2.15.00.07.28, Kernel 2.6.32.17blahblahblah...
Woke up today to a message to update. Thought I was seeing things but it's here. Android version 2.3.4 baseband version 2.15.10.07.07 build number 4.06.605.3.

Which really goes against everything we have learned about VZW so far.....it would be just like them to push the update today, then be closed or really short staffed for all the problems that occur. Although they could just change their voice mail to say:
Welcome to Verizon Wireless. We are currently closed due to the holiday. In the event you are calling because you are having issues with your phone (hears snickering in the background) and the recent update that was sent, please do a factory reset. It is the only thing we know how to tell you to do. If that doesn't work please rant and rave but refrain from calling until Tuesday. Thank you for choosing Verizon. Enjoy your day.
Will root prevent me from getting the 2.3 Gingerbread update? Because I just called Verizon and the lady told me the Gingerbread update came out August 30. But when I told her my baseband version she said I had the older one, and wasn't sure what the update was that I received overnight.

It should. Most ROM's block the notification from what I've read.
There is a way other than root to obtain screenshots. Requires the android SDK.

should have the drivers. If not, go here: HTC Mobile Phone Support - DROID INCREDIBLE by HTC (Verizon) - Downloads
-Enable USB debugging on your phone:
menu>settings>applications>development>check USB debugging
-After you have downloaded the SDK and HTC Sync, navigate to the tools folder of the SDK, right-click on the "ddms.bat" file and send to desktop as a shortcut. When you click on it from the desktop, the debug monitor will open.
-In the new window that opens you should see your device listed. Select it
and then click device>screen capture.
You now have a pic of your screen.

He is running stock. So no, root will not block the update. If you update you will lose root.
Hi, My name is Ann, and I'm addicted to this thread.
I'm also jealous of my husband who got his Gingerbread update this morning on his Motorola Droid 2. The jealously is irrational, however, since his phone likes to reboot itself whenever it feels like and the battery drains in minutes, while my Incredible is... well, incredible. Even so, I'm jealous. Therefore, I recognize that I have a problem.

Thanks for your help. I will take a pic when I get home and post then.
Hate to be a spoilsport here... you do have an Incredible... not an Inc 2, right? The Inc 2 update was announced to be rolling out - no definite announcement for the Inc yet.

(The dingos are right to be skeptical...)
inc 2 rollout has been over a while though. plus he did have the incredible at one point though. He was part of the epic 'date ordered/date received' thread where me, baby and a few others logged our few hundred posts

...and while I have not bruised my thumb checking for updates, I have been harassed by gargoyles, knife wielding lobsters, dingos and the like to stop reading this thread. I simply cannot abide. It has been 1 day since I flashed the latest nightly. I constantly long for ice cream sandwiches.

Such fond memories of impatience and longing to see the fedex notification. We didn't have dingoes, gargoyles, knife wielding lobsters or anything else though. ......But I might recall a few people threatening to hurt the fedex man.

Just want to make sure we're clear... don't want another "oh, you mean the original Incredible... I have the 2. That's what I said the whole time" fiasco.
... and I was thinking of the Droid 2

Didn't he post the incredible build number, which would stop him from claiming incredible 2.
I forgot about the date ordered/date received thread, that was good times.

Here's a screen shot of mine waiting for me to restart and install the update. I haven't done it yet cause I don't want to lose the ability to root in the future. But I got the notification this morning. I live in Houston, but my phone is a 706 area code from GA if that matters.
Todd
P.S.- Joined with an Eris, I failed to update my profile before posting, fixed now, I've had the Inc since March.

Again.. AWESOME!! Could you perhaps take a couple more, perhaps with something that has user name/date on it? Would be impossible (almost) to refute that, not that any is...

Woohoo, my phone is famous. Hilarious, I didn't realize I was getting this update ahead of anyone. Here I am trolling XDA and Phandroid waiting for a rooted release of this OTA. Anyway. Here are some more pics. I rotated the first one so you don't get a crick in your neck either.
I'm trying to figure out how to get the phone to give me the first update notification screen I saw which gave me the option to 'install now', 'install later', and 'more info', but even after rebooting it hasn't come back up. If it does I'll post that one too.

Thanks - I forgot what a stock screen even looked like.
If someone can tell me how to pull the file off the phone and upload it, I can do that too. I mounted it via USB but can't see anything. Do I need ADB to do that?
Even so, I'm jealous. Therefore, I recognize that I have a problem.
