Luckily, we were still able to get the file name from his phone. As I have said before, we are currently searching Google's servers..
Stand by...
Just watch... Verizon is screwing with us and has renamed the update file so we can't find it.

There is a subway 3 minutes down the road and my nephew just got a job there and has been beggining me to go get a sub... I am currently starved.... who wants to bet that if I go get a sub I come back, it's been posted and the server has crashed?

Why would Verizon/Google even care if some folks got the file and installed it? If anything, its less strain on their servers....someone gets the file and hosts it on their own page. I don't understand this whole "giving it to a handful of people per day" bit.

I've lurked here off & on, and I'll admit, I registered because of this thread. Thought I'd finally post. Love my Droid, but I have a Dx waiting to be activated. Hoping to upgrade the D1 to 2.2 before I pass it to my wife (weaning her off WinMo to Android goodness).
That, and I'd like a preview of 2.2 before it's released for the Dx.

guys Trident and I are doing everything we can to get this file. Multiple users have gotten the update and have tried to help us and its not working as it normally would. If you get the update please pm me or trident before you even touch anything and hopefully we can get this to the rest of the community

Yes, everyone please take a break and stop posting for a little while, if the boards go down no one will be getting the file.

If you got the update and have NOT installed it, DO NOT INSTALL IT. Wait for instructions from one of us.

That goes for everyone else too. If you happen to get the update,
DO NOT INSTALL THE UPDATE IF YOU WANT TO SHARE THE FILE WITH US. If you install it, we can't get it from your phone. Pm a mod and they will direct you.

You know, it just occurred to me: I'll bet being attached to a wifi connection precludes you from getting the OTA. I don't know, but it seems you'd have to be on the 3G connection in order for it to work. Am I right? Wrong?

So i think the collective mindset of this forum is "once this update is posted, whatever server it's on is going DOWN."

Worth mentioning you wont get the OTA if you're rooted bud.
