I know I have over 250 posts and never post rumors, but I am giving you all the news you probably already know. Call BS, but I have my info from months of unsupported rumors and people alleging information from high up the Verizon food chain that the OTA will NOT start pushing today. I cannot share why I know this at this time, but you heard it hear first, even though you already knew it. Stay tuned! No OTA will be released today.

:rolleyes:

Fail! It was released. Check specs on a new DINC. And yes, I have the email to prove it, but was to protect my source. I really could care less if you believe it or not.

Can we give the OP a prize or something?? He is defying all laws of science here!!

- 1st time poster
- starting a rumor
- didnt post any proofs
- didnt cite and sources, and say they were "high up"
- didnt claim a 1-2 week range
- didnt claim definitely by end of year

He made an acct, said we will get it TODAY. and 10 minutes later we have proofs.

WTF is the interwebs coming tooooooo???

Damnit now i have to go back to believing new posters with no proofs :(

Out-fricking-standing. Someone with some thought process. Ladies and Gentlemen, all I wanted to do is give you all a heads up. I found out stupid late last night, after emailing a contact I have there. As you have learned, it WAS released. Did it get pushed to all yet? No. Is it official? Yes. You would think I would get a little thanks for posting what turned out to be fact. I too have been waiting. I have been lurking, but when I got the news (and it was from a VERY reliable source), I was happy and wanted to share it. Yes, I posted the same thing on three sites. Because it was fact. Not opinion, fact. I am getting another DINC tomorrow (for my Kid) and am hopeful it has 2.2 on it. I suspect it may. I will be happy to show screen shots tomorrow night or Saturday after I play with it.

I have not yet received the OTA, but make no mistake, it is official, as most of you have figured out. So at least someone could by me a beer or a thanks? Have a good Froyo Desert! It's coming to a DINC near you!

Thanks for listening...

I had closed one of the 5 threads until I got a chance to merge them, but OTD did that for me.

If folks were to place their posts in the correct thread instead of making so many we wouldn't have to step in and do merges, closings etc. Until that time comes, we we continue to do what needs to be done.

TS out
Are you serious? Are you that high on yourself? I started this thread that was not based on the other rumor threads, but based on fact. So how is this the same as the other threads? So you want to be the one who broke the story? Get real. I tried to give your site a heads up, and I was the first to report what was true, and this bs? I wasted my time even posting here. Now I'm sure you will delete my reply just like you merged my reporting.

My bad TS. I spoke in haste. I could explain why I reacted this way, but it really does not matter. My mistake.

If the release the OTA by purchase date there are gonna be a lot of upset people around here.
Why exactly would you think that?
Just so you know. I went to hulu.com (which is a streaming tv and movie site)
hulu??
JK, lol
I even emailed mycity and asked how to remove. I knew what they would say but I just wanted them to know it was unwanted.
what did they say?
AF.com is where its at. Real people, having REAL discussions.
Sounds like a promo for nightline or something, lol

She apologized for the delay but said that it they can only upgrade one phone at a time.
One at a time?!? Is that a CDMA restriction?

Apparently they decided they would annoy us even more by including VZ navigator with this OTA... How much you wanna bet you can't remove it? Who the hell would use VZ navigator on an Android phone with google maps/nav?
I am so with you on that brother, its one of the first things i noticed
So honestly, considering you should wipe at some point anyway after OTA.....
How important do you think this is to do? Honestly just dont wanna mess with wiping it....

I wasn't accusing the Mods of anything, I appreciate their efforts on behalf of the forum. The original "Boot animation" thread was pinned in the main forum for months so I thought that this was where the new one should go also, My Mistake! No biggie :)
Musky?!? This is why we keep you locked in the lounge, you leave for an hour or two and look what happens!! Bad Borg!!

Will it hit all of us at 12am? Or is it going to roll out slowly and then I'm going to have to wait until Sept. to get it?
Would be just like big v to mess up and send it to all at once, will crack up as their whole system crashes and burns!!
Muha Muhaha Muhahahahahahaha
I'm calling right now to hear it from the cow's mouth.
Well????
let us know
+1
I'm sure this has been addressed, but I'm on my phone and don't wanna go through this whole thread.

Has any sort of time been announced for 2.2 to be pushed?

Is it going to be released in "waves" or does everyone get it at once?

TS was responding to one of the 5 or so threads that got combined with the one you started. Take no offense as that comment wasn't directed at you, he explained himself a few posts after that when someone else asked why a different 2.2 thread had been merged/closed. Keep reading and you will see a better explanation of what/why threads were merged
