bumancuzbrah · Apr 14, 2012

so i had an update today and it didnt say what the update was............................................................
so i updated hoping it was ICS but it wasnt.

Does anyone know what it was?

naviwilliams · Apr 14, 2012

...check it, but it is probably 2.3.6. I did that manual update earlier this week. New icon for notifications, and the 'slid to unlock' message on the main screen.

log1c · Apr 15, 2012

The new update is 2.3.6 which had stability problems in an earlier release, they fixed it, so now they are releasing it

Here is the article.

The carrier you are on sends it out. It can be sent out at any time. I got mine a week after some and well before others on at&t.

No one seems to understand...I'm not an idiot...I know how to do a software update also it says 2.3.5 and that there is no update available

I understand. It takes time, sometimes these updates get pushed out at different times. Give it a week.

FProphets · Apr 17, 2012

Awesome. I just went to check updates and it updated. Thanks!

And I'm on att by the way

sandeep23 · Apr 18, 2012

This update had few good fixes but they removed the wallpaper scrolling thing for Home Page which totally sucks

mojosodope · Apr 18, 2012

Still nothing

mojosodope · Apr 22, 2012

Here I am still without the update....screw android and Samsung, this is why I love apple and I'm going back....when an update comes out everyone gets it at the same time, this crap skyrocket has more issues than our economy, never one issue with the iPhone

kimbercutes824 · Apr 23, 2012

I tried to update as well and it said that the server was busy and it will automatically update once it's not busy. But I cannot check for updates for 23 hours. Is there any other way to update the phone? I know like when I had my BB of course I could use desktop manager or app loader. Can ATT send me a link or something to my phone to give me the update?

change your clock ahead, do the update, then let it automatically change it back

I actually got this response from someone at another forum and it worked...

"go to settings applications running services hit All and find Device Management. clear the data it then go back to update check, you should be able to run it again without waiting for 23 hrs."

I just received the At&T 2.3.6 update.

mojosodope · May 1, 2012

I somehow got the update when I went to an LTE area

FProphets · May 2, 2012

So they removed the scrolling background and there's no longer a button on the camera screen to change to front camera.

Why would they do that when it was just fine how it was?

On the positive side the touchscreen responsiveness seems improved.

I updated mine yesterday and the camera app still has the front/back camera button (next to the flash button).

FProphets · May 2, 2012

Really? That's strange. There's just a blank part where the button was originally. I can still get the front camera on but it requires pressing the settings button to the left side of the screen first.
