Go ahead and update. It's not going to pull a Vibrant on you.
Can u install alogcat before doing the update, that way we can get the ota link, for those of us who have not received it?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Yes, PLEASE try and pull a log, we need to get that ota out there so people can install it themselves, or reinstall if they've messed something up.
Did you already receive the 2.2.1 update or is this the first OTA for you?
after you install alogcat, go to filter and type in "clients.google" without the quotation marks
Post all questions in Q&A section.
Thank you,
Korey
i left mine in the notification earlier. i read somewhere, prob just a rumor, that if you install the update, it will lock you out of using hotspot for free(which they are gonna be charging $15 for soon).... until i can get a def log of what the update is, i will just leave it there.

That sounds likely to me. Doesn't make sense to charge for it if you can just turn it on and use it without the plan. I'll stick to my 'wifi tether' app.
Do what the others suggested with aLogcat please. We really need that link.

^ what he said, for the love of all that is shiny. LOL
I have over 48hrs of logs on my SD card now because I've been running aLogcat the entire time waiting for the update on my second device. I'm starting to think that T-Mobile is screening for folks who are logging haha.
I've been waiting for over aweek when the t mobile people said 48 hours after first call was made btw I have been very happy with this phone switch from nexus one.

"We have approved the Hero 2.1 Android update and it has now been handed over to Google and HTC for their final approval. When this occurs, the software will be available to download from the online Discover Center. We will provide more details here next week as soon as it’s available."
Right off their facebook page! YES!!!!
Note: If you want to root your phone later, Do NOT apply this update!!! IF YOU ARE ROOTED, DO NOT APPLY THIS UPDATE EITHER!!! This WILL wipe your phone and root! I will be making a stripped down flashable version once it is released!
Wow sorry to hear you had to wait what, an extra month and a half? That's nuts.

Lol,i been getting that message on 80% of roms when trying to updste prl or firmware for about 2-3 months now.
Same here. It's done it ever since I got the phone in August. If you were actually downloading, it would show it...at least it does for me when I ODIN dg07 to set back to stock.
Never did find the di18-gb-rel file. Lol

It looks like everyone stuck with the 2.2.2 update will be able to at least sideload apps directly onto the phone!
All I can say is thank you!
I thought you could already sideload regardless?

yea but you need a computer to sideload on a non-rooted phone. With that update for people with non-rooted phones you'll be able to install non-market apps directly on the phone.

Ohh ok well I haven't gotten it yet so I was just wondering
emo's have my heart and i have their razors
Has anyone gotten this OTA update yet? I have run the AT&T Software Update a few times today and it just gets stuck at "Checking for new software available now" indefinitely. I know this used to just time out before the froyo update was live.
I haven't gotten the update yet
I know over in the inspire thread about this they've said it's a silent update so try restarting your phone and check under applications in settings.

Has anyone received the update yet?
My Aria is rooted so no need on that one. But, my captivate unrooted now has amazon appstore. Seems like it is a silent update just reboot and try it might work. Captivate did not show the unknown sources option but i tried to install amazon appstore and it installed fine.
FYI
Ugh. Nothing yet.
I still haven't got the update. Hopefully it comes soon. If not, I still have the AC Sideload program
Still no update

Please tell me if this update can be applied only for AT&T users?
I have an unlocked ex-AT&T Aria. When I check for updates I get a "Server Unavailable" error. I suppose, it's normal, as I'm not on AT&T network.
The question is:
Is there any possibility to install this update for me?
My phone is not rooted and not s-off'ed. (Damn 2.2 off update with 1.02 hboot)
PS: Sorry for possible mistakes, English is not my native lang.
I still haven't received the update yet.
I just got this 2.76.651.5 update OTA and so far it seems to have fixed the Sense UI reloading issue from the last OTA update. Here to hoping it's finally fixed.
Will there be any issues when this comes to achieving root? The last ota i got totally screwed me. Can anyone confirm whether or not this will inpead root ability?

I screwed myself by accepting the last OTA update. I'm certainly not accepting this one until know for sure it won't screw me further.
I'm personally not going to take that update atm. Still not happy with my current phone situation anyway... Had an Epic 4G but my fiancee wanted to upgrade from her dated Samsung Moment. So i looked around on Craigs and bought a Shift 4G. She didn't want the shift though, because she got so attached to her game-gripper on the Moment. So I gave her my Epic and took the Shift. Too bad it already had 2.3.3 on it =/
I'm just waiting on a new root exploit and I'm afraid to update anything on this sucker until then lol
I would never accept any OTA update. If root is ever discovered again and it requires the update you can always get it...can't really go back once you have it. On the other hand development for this phone is really slow and I believe root will only be found if it happens to be the same exploit as the newer phones so you may be without it for quite awhile and if the sms/mms issue affects you then you may want to take it. I know it is tempting but think about how it feels not having root just because you wanted the newest update.

Verizon has started updating the tabs to 2.3.5 today. Probably will take a few days for everyone to get it though. Just thought I would share.
Edit: thanks to jason62082 we now have a link to download the update.zip! Enjoy everyone and be sure to thank Jason for pulling it from his tab and uploading it!

No, I dont have it yet. I work for them and just letting u know they started it today. I am patiently waiting for it now. Just wanted to let everyone know the good news. If u dont believe me, call in and ask. It was released today.
And btw, I have never pulled a zip and dont know how to, or I would once I get it. Sorry. Just wait for the ota or someone else to post it.
Sent from my SCH-I800 using xda premium
I can confirm this update. My Tab notified me about 10 minutes ago. Haven't updated yet because I don't feel like having to root it again. If someone could tell me how though, I will try to pull the .zip
EDIT: Never mind. It was a smaller update for 2.2....
Any proof
Any proof, like picture?
Anyone who had previously been using the "leaked" VZW GB rom try to update to this official one? Any differences noted or anticipated? Is there any point instead of sticking to the "leaked" ROM?
Other than unrooting, will this update screw anything up?
If I'm rooted can I still get this ota update?
I bypassed the verizon activation a few days ago with the volume up and down method and I am currently using my tab on wifi only. Will I get the update? If I do get it, will I have to bypass it again? Will the same method work?
Sent from my SCH-I800 using xda premium
I am not sure if you'll get it if not on Verizon's network. I am getting impatient though. The announcement I read said it was starting on the 1st but I still haven't seen it, nor has anyone else I know. Any of you guys got it yet??? Mine had the GB leak on it and I flashed back to stock Froyo just for this. I'm just hoping something I did didn't block me from getting it.
I can't get it yet either.

I'm over in the quail hollow area off Carmel. Funny. Small world. Anyway, I'm thinking of calling tech support and asking them about it.
Ask them if the update will screw up our rooted Tabs.
I'm sure it would as far as losing root, but they gave me the basic song and dance. Said it was staggered and may take a while for everyone to get it. Then he told me to go into the store and have it updated which isn't true. I work in the store and we have no way to update smartphones and tablets, only basic phones. It just seems strange that no one on this forum has received it. When I go back to work tomorrow I will check to see if it was pulled back or delayed for any reason.
Question, when it updates, does it just put an update.zip on the sd card? If so, then I will try to copy and post on here.
Edit: I have a sneaky suspicion that it was delayed for some reason. Check it out. It still says coming soon on the public page.

I will check it out and report back tomorrow.

Yes, when the OTA update pop up shows up, that means you have an update.zip on the internal storage of your Tab. Use Root explorer or ES and navigate to /cache and you'll find the update.zip once you get the OTA notice. Then you can just upload that update.zip to any hosting site, and drop a link here for all to enjoy.
