Help Anyone miss Froyo and get it again?

I got the update late one night and clicked install or whatever and the phone just reset on me. Still on 2.1 and phone says its up to date. Any tricks to getting the update again?

Only one I have heard of that works is to do a factory reset and then *228 Option 1. Others report that the update pops up immediately!!

Otherwise, word from VZW is just wait! :thinking:

try the date

first turn off background data and anything that does period checks (email and such)
then change date to 3 weeks from now
turn off phone
turn on phone
go into phone dialer and dial *#*#checkin#*#* (*#*#232546#*#*) DO NOT HIT CALL BUTTON
once it says checkin successful, go to menu>settings>about phone>System updates

HOPEFULLY, it is there. This proceedure (suggested by HTC) trie to trick your phone into thinking it needs to check for updates again.
