Get ready for OTA!!! (Build 494 and Software number 605.2)

well crapola, saw 2 notification icon's on phone
one was severe weather alert and other was app update

The Exchange bug is a fairly massive blunder for such a mission critical app. Is Android mostly for "toy" phones?

No. It is a huge oversight but there things that come up that testing sometimes cannot find. Sometimes the phones have to be "in the wild" for things like this to come up. I know it does not make sense, but trust me, I used to configure Point of Sale servers and many issues would not happen until after install and the client had been using them for awhile. In testing things can work fine, but in the wild can have issues. It's the nature of IT unfortunately.

You guy have to understand that as soon as any smart is released there will be an OTA simply because alot of development has occured while all these phones have been sitting in their boxes for months while stock was being Mfred.

This guy amazes me.

Every post i have read from him he tries to seem like some Almighty God and talk down on everyone like he's smarter then anyone on this forum.

And 90% of his posts are incorrect.

Tool.

IF it is only an update addressing exchange bug,
Not mission critical for me,
so you asked a non-question

I was just poking a little fun, relax, and no need for the non sequitur reply.

Of course and the bug is obviously being fixed immediately as it should be. Android would really have to try hard to surpass MS in releasing bugged software.

The "Android is for toy phones" thing is just a running joke I use to needle a few friends who are just a little too enthusiastic about Android and their phones.

staten island....no update

if it's just an MS exchange update, that's pretty useless for me. android doesn't support any proxy settings for setting up MS exchange...really irks me!

I bet they release the update on Monday.

Here's an idea, how bout everyone posts when they get the update, not that they haven't gotten it yet?

Hope they fix the inability to add multiple calendars to the calendar widget

anyone notice problems with vzw servers?
site has been slow today
and early in the a.m. i was going to download an new updated rom for my omnia that i am giving to friend .
the download speed from servers was in the dial up range
over an hour to download a 200mb file.

Could this be affecting update?

 

[AcePuppy]

Haven't read through the thread, but this was just to fix an exchange issue. This doesn't fix he issues in NC.

I though I was the only guy in upstate NY with the Incredible.

No update - Upstate (way upstate) NY (Clinton County)

It's funny, anything NOT New York City is considered Upstate, NY! (=

 

[GNS1310]

I have lotsa neighbors here! Hiya from Seneca Falls, NY! Phone is working great!!

 

[greenrolaids]

Thanks, maybe you can help me. My primary gmail calendar shows up but I can't get my google accounts (on my domain) calendar to show up.

I had no trouble adding 3 email accounts - gmail, yahoo and google email for domains (basically gmail on my domain) - just can't figure out how to add that calendar. The ability to add calendar is not 'clickable'...see my original post here...its frustrating because I know it's supposed to be do-able...

It is just a teeny email related update. Reboot issues, signal reception/bars and 6.6gb space access for third party apps are the "biggies" to address at some point.

I am not getting the reboots, but they seem more regional in nature.

 

[azide]

I'm in Raleigh and have had no issues/reboots. Also, no update here yet.

 

[slumpey]

hope this comes within the next few days

 

[slumpey]

so I talked to tech support this morning, and the 3G dropout and bars not displaying correctly is a know issue and this will be resolved in the OTA update. I asked the guy when he thought it would be coming, but he didnt know. Hopefully it will be soon.

Were you one of the phone testers? Ah Ha! so your the reason the bugs got past them....

I thought it was just for the Exchange problem. Or do you mean the next OTA update?

 

[slumpey]

no it is for the upcoming update. He said it is a known problem.

 

[Mr. Spontaneous]

I don't think location would matter with regards to getting the update. As demonstrated by the Moto Droid and their BB OTAs, VZW pushes them out based on the last digit of the phone number, IIRC. Additionally, only a small group of people get the update first. If that tests out ok more get it every few days until they have full distribution.

So, no update here, last digit: 2

 

[Trooper]

no it is for the upcoming update. He said it is a known problem.

Thanks for the heads up. I still have not received the update.
