went to the Verizon store and was told the update is rolling out. The tech showed me the screen on his comp listing exactly what was stated in the first post
I wouldn't expect that VZW would phrase the audio fix any other way...i.e., not admitting fault (it might also be a case where the the issue actually is a hardware one that can be overcome with a software fix and not wanting to point fingers between themselves and HTC).
It didn't surprise me at all seeing it phrased that way. Does it mean the "silent call" bug ? Maybe, maybe not, but I wouldn't expect them to specifically mention it. They don't say they're "fixing" anything, they're simply "improving" or "enhancing".
Yea, you are right, I am upset. I am just fed up with the issues this phone is having. It's embarrising when you go to make a work phone call and the silent call issue rears its ugly head, or you drop the call because the Eris dislikes 3g coverage in LA of all places. I think I did get a bad cs rep, cause I had one guy who was super nice and offered to upgrade me to the INC. I wish I would've accepted that offer.
This, although I think it's more so of an issue with Sense. If I didn't love it so much I would probably have gotten a different phone without sense.
HTC manufactured the Nexus One, if I am not mistaken, and that's not running Sense. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think that phone has any of the issues the Eris or Incredible are having, which leads me to believe it's an issue with Sense, and not so much HTC.
I also believe that this update will be pushed out slowly at first similar to the 2.1 OTA and for the same reasons the OTA was rolled out slowly, meaning I don't think most people will get it on this site for a bit.
One thing to keep in mind is that often times full change logs are not always included for the general public. So the update may offer other fixes that are not listed.
Anyway, so far Im not seeing any updates on my phone.
I wonder if the fix will cure my BT problems. When I'm on my headset and get in my car, it tries to connect to the car BT handsfree instead. Sometimes it works, but sometimes it just disconnects my headset BT and sends the call to the handset. It will never let me stay connected to my BT headset when I get in the car. This only started after the 2.1 update.
Anyone who is experienced using adb or ddms, please get us the url of the update if you get it. (If you don't know how our don't know what I'm talking about, don't worry about it.)
Actually, voice does use 3G and 1x. You're think of 3G data (EvDO).
The issue he's probably having is he's losing ALL signal. The phone will try to drop to 1x but if it's in a fringe/poor coverage area, it will drop anyways.
Could be a defective phone, defective software, or simply needs a PRL update...
