EVO 4G's Android 2.2 update starts trickling out July 30 (official OTA August 3rd)

It's out, it's out!!!

And does anyone else have the radiation bars to the right of the GPS 'ON' icon? That's the bars between the GPS icon and the WiFi icon. I've never seen those on my phone.

I've been on vacation and I'm trying to catch up but it appears that some do not believe the update is coming today. I can tell you for a fact that during a conference call of Sprint higher-ups they were told yesterday that it would be released today. I'm not much of an insider but my best friend is an executive with Sprint and his boss (a good friend of mine as well) put them on the conference call yesterday for that reason specifically.

BTW, the same executives were told 2.1 (Hero) was going to be released two weeks before it actually came out so you can't always rely on what Sprint tells even their executives.

The way I interpreted the press release was that on 7/30 they will officially announce that they will begin pushing the update to phones on 8/03. If you can't wait, you can manually reuqest the update... on 8/03. Not on 7/30.

Hopefully I'm wrong, but i don't think it makes sense to check every 5 minutes at this point.

Your right...... its more like every minute!

Um...

Yes its release date is today only to a "select few" and if all goes well they will roll it out on Tuesday where they will start pushing it in waves or you can download it yourself. People blindly look past that and think its coming to everyone today.

Well, the "select few" could be me or you, or someone else posting in this thread.

That's why I have to continue checking myself.
