1.6 out, anyone gotten it?

Any MyTouch users received it yet? Id like to get my hopes up...
If so where do you live?

Ive had it for a couple weeks...... LOOK BELOW

nice, i meant the ota though. After the countless hours i spent on my rooted g1 instead of studying in law school ive decided to keep this bad boy stock, so i have to wait (impatiently) for the ota...the anticipation is killing me

nope I'm rooted and plan to stay that way.

For cupcake and donut the g1's without root were able to utilize a flashable update, i guess no love for the mytouch...really thought id have the ota by now

yes, its the official update

I renamed the .zip file to update.zip and put it on the root of my sd card.. but when I boot the phone by holding down Home and Power, I get the ! pic in the center of the display but at this point I can't figure out how to apply update.zip
Can anyone help?

Well I figured out how to boot it to look at update.zip on the sdcard, but I receive errors when I try to upgrade the phone. It doesn't appear this is the correct update bundle.

My GF got hers but I haven't got mine!! Mountlake Terrace, WA

I got it today and screwed up a few of the apps i had installed included the HTC_IME keyboard that I really liked.

Both my myTouch and my wife's G1 got the 1.6 OTA in Los Angeles over the weekend. While it did mess up a few of the apps I ran, a bunch have already been updated in the Market. The HTC_IME keyboard was also messed up but there is an updated version availabe -- do a search in the Dream sections here; I downloaded the new one from there and it's working fine again.
EDIT:
Here's the thread where I got the new HTC_IME that works with the 1.6 update:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=567294

The one we all downloaded is no longer working. Says the trial period has ended Is there an update?

Weird, works on mine...

I uninstalled it and then re-installed and it works fine now. Think it updated to a more current version too.

Mine expired today. Uninstalling now.

When did it tell you it expired? Just out of nowhere? I downloaded it from the idiot guide and its working so far but I cannot imagine typing without it, so I'm nervous it'll expire soon.

Mine expired yet still works
Edit: NVM, I'm a dumbass

Mine expired yesterday and worked until this morning. Had to uninstall, delete the old apk on the SD card, and then reboot and reinstall everything for it to start working again.

Droid life is on top of this

I downloaded swype off another thread on these forums and it still works great!

I had to follow the same steps to get mine working. Uninstall, delete old install, reboot, install new file.

This new version is better. It will add the apostrophe ' into words like "don't" or "I'm". The last version didn't do that.

I just got an email about an hour ago as being accepted into the beta. Not sure if this is a brand new version or not.

I downloaded swype from a different thread in the droid eris section and supposedly the license there won't expire

What is frustrating is swype had officially stated they will not ever sell the app separately.they are sticking with the included with certain phones model.i would not think twice about buying the final version.

You would have thought that the world had come to an end once the clock started striking midnight across the world last night and everyone’s Swype beta died off.

Thats funny and too true! I seriously freaked when mine stopped working. Funny because when I saw Swype commercials, I thought it looked lame and would never work right. Now I cant live without the dumb thing

should i download the incredible version from that droid-life website?
I have a version of swype on my phone i installed yesterday but it isnt expired
Should i remove that, then install?
I already deleted my old apk i believe

New Sprint Update 3.30.651.3 :)

Apparently Sprint is pushing out a new update for all HTC EVO users.
3.30.651.3 FOTA update.
So check if you guys have it and see if anything changes.
Good luck

Waiting for someone else to be the guinea pig and see if unrEVOked works after installation.

No, it appears that this is only available for users who have software version of 3.30.651.2
"Note: This update is only for newer devices with initial software version of 3.30.651.2. If you are running a different version than this, you will not receive this update and do not need it.
This update fixes power cycling issue when accessing the camera through some applications, like Qik, on devices running version 3.30.651.2 only."

I downloaded it a while ago. It's 6MB and when I installed it, I got the ! With the triangle. So I reported and never updated it. I'm using Unrevoked with Azrael 2.3 ROM.
So no update for me. Even though it still asks me to install it, I won't.

When the last OTA update hit I was unable to install over the air it until I replaced clockworkmod with the stock recovery. Maybe the same thing is occurring here?

it is just a patch 6.4Mb and the download link can be found in a logcat

Does it still have HBOOT 2.02?

I'll root it and post it when I get home from work in 4 hours.

if you're getting this update it sounds like you already have a newer evo that is a bit more difficult to root anyhow. unrevoked doesn't work on the phones that seem to be getting this update to begin with, i doubt it will break root any harder honestly.
i'm installing it, my phone reboots when running qik and i can't get root from unrevoked as it is.

i got notified by my evo today about the update, i chose against installing it too.
i installed 3.29 ota, rooted via unrevoked then used the update zip to get to 3.30 even though apparently we should not have been doing so.

update works great, qik now works, and the flashlight toggle on my toggles widget no longer reboots the phone either.

Same here tried update , Running clockwork and I have Azreal 2.41 running. After reboot Triangle.
Cold boot back and update failed.
Maybe someone would be so kind as to post this in a ZIP.
Thanks
Gin.

What time you get home from work? Cuz ill be waiting for that root..... lol

I'm not too sure about the supposed netflix fix with the htc update. As far as I can tell the netflix app is gone from the market. Suppose I take the update and decide I want to reset my phone to factory. I obviously can't install netflix again because its not even available to be download from the market anymore.

if by factory you mean unroot dont do it just wait the update will be here and netflix should show up again

No I mean to do a factory reset. Lets say I have unrooted gingerbread update from before and I update to this upcoming one. I decide to do a factory reset to go back to OEM state. I will obviously have to reinstall my apps again from the market. But the netflix app is no longer available to be download from the market. Which leaves me to believe that there is a problem on Netflix's end.
Another thing is that I am on Froyo now and I am still having problems with Netflix. It doesn't seem like Netflix's problem is limited to gingerbread.

theres a updated netflix version on the android market website to 1.2.2 idk how to download it so its not totally off market just our devices cant see it at the moment or netflix has it hidden from us one way or the other there will be netflix today

Here you go http://www.mediafire.com/?48bncrfrvxmgrtc
once it installs there is an update, then it will work. Confirmed to work on the Evo and 3vo

Had the NetFlix app already installed from prior use, and it actually never stopped working for me. Went to open this morning got prompted for the "New Version of application is found" Clicked ok and get "Not found" The requested item could not be found. Confirmed not working.
NetFlix must be playing with the update. If I hit "Cancel" it will sit at a White screen and Netflix will load.
Currently running Version 1.2.1 build 843839-1.0.0-30 that I downloaded from a share somewhere.
Running Sprint Stock OTA 2.3.3 never rooted.

Got a screen shot to show me the app in question? Not sure what you are referring to.

Well I'm not too sure because I'm on Gingeritis 3D but on the bottom of the software update page (http://www.engadget.com/2011/07/09/verizon-pushes-latest-thunderbolt-update-solves-reboot-issues/) it says there is a thunderbolt desktop cradle app

Oh crap I feel like an idiot I looked at the list for the longest time. It says features and lists a VZW stuff under it. I completely glanced over the wording "debloated". Now I'm much less confused since i seen the word!

Haha no worries, ya the link u mention is what I source from, just ripped out all the Verizon stuff, and some of the other annoying apps that most time drop. Other than that, the system is exactly the same as the Rom you linked.

The only difference is some of the app apks are removed, and will not start (some of them have background services that put a little extra stress on the system).
It's the same kernel however, the battery life is much better on the custom kernels - hopefully the source will be released soon for this cut and imosyon/adrynalyne can do something more with it to get battery life back up.

Did you do a full wipe and install the radio from the linked page? I didn't put step by step instructions because I figured by this point that would be pretty spelled out. If I need to, I can update the OP with more explicit instructions.

I did a full wipe, and this is not the first time the market acted up for me. It use to do it on my Eris, Dinc and now the thunderbolt. But I can install through the website which makes this just strange to me. I was using Flyweight Final with the 2.5 radio and had no issues but updated to current radio that came with the official MR2 update. Right now it doesn't matter what radio or rom I use I can not download from the android market on my phone.
Any ideas?

Hmmm.... only thing I can think of to check is a flaky mobile data connection if you are using that...... if you have it available see if you can link your thunderbolt to a known WiFi spot with the new OTA radio and access the market from there. I don't think it's software-based as I'm currently running the exact same rom on my phone and can get to the market in both WiFi and mobile data situations.

Good luck trying to use MMS on this. I'm working on a safe and useful debloat and to do it properly, it takes some time. I'll have it posted soon enough.

My ThunderBolt did the same thing for me with the non-Debloat that Jcase/RetroKid provided (again which none of these updates have some of the features listed on the official support PDF from Verizon)
MyMarket wouldn't even show the ThunderBolt in the account settings/devices list
it was just, gone, I synced it 3 times and still it didn't show up, i tried to download stuff, couldn't, so i was angry enough about the problems i started with and just flashed my MR2 nandroid from back in June and i'm back to normal.
this update was NOT ready for primetime, nor does it have the desktop app, or new App menu with the tabbed browsing, the same menu found on the Incredible 2 (which is Sense 2.1) when I confronted the devs about the rom not having some of those features they called me a liar and said well that was a Verizon typo, this update just fixes the reboot issues that is all " SO I have made a promise to myself to never deal with those bung-holes again. I absolutely hate Devs that think there either king of everything in this area or they think they can remove stuff and people won't notice or they can edit anything they wish and you have to put up with what THEY want. alot of good features and apps are lost that way.
anyway, that ends my rant
maybe i'll try this one but since its also provided by jcas/RetroKid I don't expect it to be any different...

anyone finding difference btwn this and bamf 1.8.6?
