So, at this point is it safe to assume that Neverhavemoney didn't come through?
I was so hopeful that a guy that would take the time to upload a screenshot (with the file size/day carefully cropped out) while at "work" but couldn't upload the file because he was at "work" would come through for us. Damn

Dude... I can call a file "update.zip" and take a screenshot also. To me, that means absolutely nothing. That is a major red flag.
Yes, thank you. Rethinking this over a bit... my findings will be posted tomorrow morning around 9AM EST. This should give me an ample amount of time to converse with him. Noting will be posted before then. Thanks for your understanding.
there is no delay, it has been released as promised only to a select few. I have spoken with 3 people who confirmed it but would not give me the update themselves, if you look on Motorolas Facebook page there these people have said they have it and is working completly but without Flash functionality.

From what I've been able to glean, they did put the first thousand out; and then put an indeterminate hold for an as yet undisclosed reason on the full rollout. Although nothing is confirmed, it appears that the current problem is as much a deployment issue as anything.
This is exactly what happened. Verizon spokesperson Thomas Pica said in an email to popular phone site phonescoop.com, "The Android 2.1 upgrade for the Droid by Motorola was deployed to a small number of Verizon Wireless test users as scheduled. It is expected the broader phased rollout to all Droid by Motorola users will take place, but not just yet. No date scheduled yet."
I wouldnt really call Phone Scoop a popular phone site.... I never heard of it till yesterday...
It's fairly well known and well-respected in the industry. I did Tier 2 phone support for AT&T for a few years (Res Desk and IWC) and we used and recommended Phone Scoop extensively.

Yeah, every time I asked my verizon rep a question, they referred me to phonescoop. Was kind of annoying. Wondered what they were getting paid for if a free site could provide more info than them. Imagine that :-)

The way it worked for us was that we only had so much information that was available in customer-facing documents. We often had more information but we weren't allowed to directly provide that information or those sources to the customer.
However, a lot of it was available on Phonescoop, so we could direct customers there to get information we knew they needed to know but were not able to provide.
You and me both. I have been coding a side-scroller game in Flash for Droid. Once 10.1 Flash hits Droid, I will be coding more and more games in Flash for Droid.
Flash is not "dead" according to Steve Jobs, it's crouched down in the brush awaiting the precise time to POUNCE!

Whats the big deal about Flash? I mean, most websites have little vids and advertising blocks on webpages that run off of flash.. but what more is there to haveing flash available?

I don't want or care about Flash on my phone. I keep it blocked until needed on my desktop machine with the Flashblock extension for Firefox.
I don't want to see Flash banner ads, stupid Flash website intros made by crappy web designers or visit websites that use Flash for navigation (again made by crappy web designers). Websites with extensive use of Flash are generally lacking in content anyway and not worth bothering with.
The only possible reason I would want Flash on my Droid is to see Flash videos on websites that host the videos themselves and not on Youtube.
I agree. I hope there'll be a way to disable Flash when I don't want it. Outside of watching Flash video, I don't want it draining my battery trying to run stupid ads and what not.
My droid just flashed me . I think today is going to be a good day its 71 degrees outside and i'm ready to update my phone. I'm going out for some food and drinks and will be back later tonight. Trident i know you won't let us down......PLEASE i'm scared .

Mainly the ones regarding someone who supposedly got the ota update,
I have soft deleted all posts and quite a few off topic posts.
lets keep this on topic and with useful stuff, if any member actually has an update and want to post it do so, otherwise do not tease the members by saying you will and do not follow through. that will be considered spam in my eyes and grounds for banning.
Carry on
TS out

Thanks TS. neverhavemoney is PMing me about the update he says he has. Don't ban him quite yet.
For what it's worth I had to call Verizon today about another issue - and when I asked about the update he said it was a minor glitch in the update itself and that while it was still TBD he expected it to go out in about a week.
some1 should call verizon and say hey i got my update and its not working and if the people on the phone go ohh we didnt give the update out to people yet then we will know the number is on the droid help page on vzw ,If the update fails again please contact Verizon Wireless Customer Care at (800) 922-0204.
Maybe Verizon would push the update.zip to someone's phone to repair it if they said they got it and it failed. What do you think?

I think that's pretty much just a recap, and not really anything new.
Nope, HP still blows.

Officially, there is no word from Motorola (NYSE: MOT), and requests for comment by InternetNews.com were not returned as of press time. The update was set to begin rolling out in stages to 250,000 users at a time, beginning at noon Eastern time on Thursday, March 18.

The Motorola Droid - the first ever Verizon Android Phone - exploded onto the mobile market with an incredibly successful ad campaign that brough Android to the masses. With a huge and vibrant touchscreen, solid metal body, full QWERTY keyboard, 5M... Read More
