Posters with this question are all over the place. Thought I'd start a thread to sere if anyone with a leaked version had gotten the official ota. I'm on v.2 and nada.

I have a 2.1v3 phone and a 2.1OTA phone side by side. If challenge you to tell the difference besides the phone number, MEID, PRL or HDBOOT.I'm not convinced that's the case. Seems like the OTA has a few more features not available in the v.3 leak. Also, there are quite a few v.3 leak users with the silent call issue--a major deal breaker IMO. (I've got it too on v.2 and it's a pain to deal with.) I hope that the OTA would've solved the silent phone problem and I haven't seen any threads about that issue with OTA users.
The 50% time w/o signal is more a less a non-issue as OTD has detailed. I have found the same to be true that if you ignore it, it goes away.
I am still hoping that us leak users (early adopters, beta testers?) will be granted the official OTA so that we won't be wondering if our issues are due to the leak. At least with an official OTA update, we can officially complain to VZ and HTC.
That is not true. I have a 2.1 OTA and it doesn't report that way.There is no way to flash the 2.1 OTA because from what I've read that when you do the update for 2.1 it keeps the bootloader the same. So do the math the leak upgraded to a different and higher bootloader similar to the ones that the Desire and the Incredible.
Leakers would have to get root and downgrade to the 1.5 rom and then load the hboot file to the device via adb commands and then we will be able to do the 2.1 OTA but your best bet it to upgrade to the Leak v3 since the checksum is 99.9% close to the OTA. But be careful because if something happens to your phone like a broken earpiece or a wacky track ball you would have to make sure that when you take it in that they dont look at the software because they can compare the ones on the computer and they would say that it is supposed to look like this 2.1 UPDATE-1.

You won't be able to because there is none.
So what you are saying is that you are a leaker and it accepted the update.

Same question as previous poster: No difference in functionality, features, etc.? All apps that need it have full access to links and internet? No silent call problem on either one?
Not that I can tell. I have not had the silent call problem on either phone but I have a tendancy to use a Moto Droid more because it is the number that most people know.Same question as previous poster: No difference in functionality, features, etc.?
