ZC is a TOOL. Nuff said

 

Lies! Lies!

 

Of course it is still being sent out. If you either downgrade your phone to 1.5, get a replacement with 1.5, or were out of the country and had your phone powered off for the last few weeks, (and, of course, you did not install a leak) it will still need to be updated. I imagine it will be perpetually available to any phone with 1.5 that activates on Verizon's network.

 

My wife is on stock 1.5 and has still not received the update. So, it stands to reason that it is still being rolled out. Furthermore, anyone who thinks Verizon can stick to an original schedule is probably fooling themselves a bit. If they said it would be done by 5/26 chances are it may take a little longer with their track record.

I am a STRONG Verizon supporter, but they do tend to be overconfident/optimistic on schedules.

 

I got an email from VZW on Tuesday stating that the OTA was sent ot my phone, but never got an update notification on my phone, I'm running the 2.1v3 leak and no OTA for me yet...

 

Really? Can we see a copy of that email? Not being snide or rude, i am on the leak as well.

 

You haven't heard yet?

No OTA ever for leakers.

 

So is it possible to downgrade to 1.5 the get the OTA?

 

Not really. I believe those who wish to have a 1.5 Eris have been returning them for a refurb and playing the lottery to see what they're given.

 

yes, the 1.5 to 2.1 OTA will be perpetually rolling out, almost forever. if you get a new eris 3 months from now that somehow has 1.5 on it, when you activate it you will be prompted to update.

 

Most people are sending them back, but the truth is v3 is the same as the OTA, so unless you absolutely feel the need to root or something, it's not really a big deal. It's *possible* the devs here will root the leak anyhow...

 

Thought this was pretty good.... (off the VZWSupport twitter)


@VZWSupport I understood that the official 2.1 OTA for Droid Erises that have a leaked 2.1 on them would begin rolling out on May 24. True? about 1 hour ago via Seesmic in reply to VZWSupport

@wcramernc That is correct and the OTA is still being sent out. *AN about 1 hour ago via web in reply to wcramernc


Response to some other guy right after that......


@vzwsupport Are the Eris leakers still not getting the official 2.1 or has that changed since the roll out is still going on? about 1 hour ago via web

@bsutton01 We only guarantee OTA to users with prior approved software.


Good stuff. lol

 

I got that email a couple of days ago as well, but my phone has been upgraded to 2.1 for a couple of weeks (I did it a day after I got it in the mail).

So it's not just for those who haven't accepted it yet.
