Burnetts back baby!! lmao

I love how the article on the Yanks site says "Burnett is back" because he only gives up 3 runs in 6 innings. I'm sorry, but a 4.50 ERA is shit when you are making $20 mil. He needs to get his act together or take a seat on the bench.

That said, Yanks overall are lookin MONEY!

If you dont have it by Saturday, go into your phone and change the date to 3 weeks from the day. See if the phone will b e fooled into updating that way.

Yea, already tried changing the date.
I lost data connection when I changed the date, and about a minute later, the date changed back on its own and I got my data connection back.

The guy told me to wait a week before trying it. Of course I tried it to no success.

Still waiting.... yuck!

 

[InTheCreek]

well I'll be darned!

The date changed back, but I just got a notification!!

Keep an eye out for your 3G notification to show activity non-stop. Check your System Update in settings and it may be that it's downloading.

Just did a factory reset and internal storage wipe. I'm not gonna lie, this shit is intense. Please work correctly.

P.S. The new boot screen is awesome!

 

[sk8erdh36]

Holy! I changed the date to september 19th or something...Went to check for updates and BAM there it is.

 

[SeattleYanksFan]

Fantastic! I did a factory reset and now it wants me to activate, but won't. Of course, Verizon is closed. Nice!

 

[lilsarahboo]

Why the factory reset?
Did I miss something?

I've read lots of people recommend a factory reset after an OS update, so I figured I'd start with a fresh OS rather than all the crap I've installed over the last several months. Clearly it didn't go as planned. Phone is almost up and running, but I have a triangle over my service bars and I don't believe I'll be making any phone calls til Verizon gets in in the morning.

Same crap happened to me. Had to go into the store.

Immediately after posting above, I tried the date change trick just for the heck of it. Recieved a warning that my SwiftKey beta trial was about to run out, and then looked in the System Update and abracafkingdabra! Downloading the update now. Sweet.

 

[jerpa]

Wow. Changed the date on my phone to Sept 30. It changed back immediately but started downloading the update.

 

[TokedUp]

wish we knew about this date trick days ago LOLWTF!

 

[Xm4n]

Awesome I got my froyo just right now at 12:20 in South Texas.. Both my incredibles on my account got it.. first my gf at 8 a.m. now mine at 12:20 the following day.. gonna start messing with it right now...

 

[Xm4n]

Just to let u guys know.. I tried the date trick earlier in the day.. it didnt work for me.. but I did get the update later in the day.. maybe they are speeding up the rollout...

 

[bonerjams03]

how did you get the date to stay? every time i try changing it, it just reverts back to today. i see activity on the 3g for a moment then it just goes away

 

[Twiz]

wish we knew about this date trick days ago LOLWTF!

Such a simple way to get the update I'm surprised we DIDN'T think of this BEFORE! lol

 

[atlbravesfalcs7]
