General VZWsupport Twitter now says leakers WILL receive OTA..

strange... I guess the real question is how much should we get on their case if we dont have it by today (the date they had told me on twitter a week and a half ago...)

Guess we just play the waiting game again!

 

must be taking out the cupcake 1.5 block then. They said this week we all should get it. Wondering if the first update got everybody to 2.1 base now adding another one for the rest of the stuff.

 

I loved this response to them:

Looking forward to getting the update.

 

well they just @messaged me back... "@asmith1106 You have until the end of the day no worries. *ZC"

Good news? I hope so! *crosses fingers*

 

THEY SAID MAY 25 LAST WEEK.... we will see also got the same answer from a v-tech friend of mine and also don't have the update from leak 3

 

I think all of us leakers are going to collectively nerdgasm if we do actually receive the update today.

 

NERDGASM the word of the day

 

if three update doesn't have anything better than v3... what's the point?

 

there are a couple of small issues that get changed. also the big one might be able to get root agian if you want. my phone leaked g/f updated hers seems a little faster.

 

How about this ? Quit putting one ounce of value in what this twit says about the update...

 

OTA bug fixes.

 

Is that implying you got the ota on a leaked phone?

 

Support from VZW for bugs... continued support and not being "left behind" on *possible* future patches.. etc.
At least thats why *I* want to receive the OTA. Having it be an "official" release at least gives me satisfaction that there will be support behind it.

My Eris is working fine... I'm just worried about the long haul... I've never had a phone last me an entire year without messing up...

*Crosses fingers*

 

no my phone leak 3 girlfriend was stock 1.5 till update last week

 

Meh at this point I think there are just messing with people. With as many times as they change their minds, pretty much on a daily bases. Just wait a few hours and it'll probably change again.
Either that or they have a magic 8 ball that they defer to every time a person asks about the leak.

 

I think if they are tweeting that you have til the end of the day today and NO ONE so far has come in and said they got it by now, it is more BS that people are following on Twitter..

I could be wrong, but....

 

This just in, Twitter is for tweets.....Facebook confirms.

 

Will the leakers get the OTA today?

Don't count on it.

 

rofl

I like my phone on v3. I'm afraid the OTA will screw it up

 

Sounds to me like they are releasing a bug fix for 2.1 which will have a higher version number than the current OTA 2.1 (which is the same ver # as leak 2.1) which will force leakers phones to get the OTA update.

Just my thoughts. Also probably won't be today.

 

I agree, I think leakers will have to manually load the file, but they will eventually be on the same page as the rest of us. I also think they are waiting for everyone to be up and running 2.1, then send out a patch for the bugs.

 

sounds like they're just covering their Public Relations asses for ZC being completely out of line yesterday by suggesting we try installing ROMs for the TMobile G1 and any other ROM we could get our hands on...

 

we get the ota.

we don't get the OTA and we voided our warranty.

we get the OTA.

I honest put 0 faith in what that idiot at vzwcluelessupport has to say.
Someone explain to me how you isolate just the leakers to update them seperately. The HBOOT version is different yes, but can you check that info with the OTA scripts?

 

to give ZC the benefit of the doubt, he was probably thinking "leakers" was the same as "root"... I kinda feel bad for him/her today, acting like a dog with its tail between its legs
