So has anyone that's on stock EA28 tried to check for an OTA update to see of the rumor of the aforementioned 2.2.1 OTA is actually being pushed today like various sources said it is supposed to be?

many of us are curious as to when/if the ota will drop...despite being on eb01 already.
basically the sooner the ota starts, the (hopefully) sooner the froyo source is released from samsung.

I have stock, EA28, and checking every 1/2 hour still nothing ( if not today im going to break down and do the reading and root. so much to read though ugg.

I will confirm for you in a few hours, but I can pretty much guarantee that its a negative, and the people who leaked it are full of merd.

Considering that EB01 still has a number of problems (like the new GPS issues), I'd imagine they'd hold off on releasing until there's nothing too major.
Plus, they haven't announced that they're going to do anything, so it seems highly doubtful it's coming out today.
Totally agree.. Besides if they can not get bing up in our face what's the point of even updating us .. Ever

That hasn't stopped them from pushing out updates with a multitude of issues before. lol Just release the source. Who cares if it's buggy? Our wonderful developers will fix it and then Verizon can use that to push out to everyone.

Unfortunately the majority of Fascinate owners will never be able to reap the rewards of all the hard work that our developers put into making Samsung's Fascinate an actually great phone.
I am surprised that the Epic 4G got theirs as scheduled. We may not get it today but we will soon enough!

just like with froyo...took us months to get froyo for the vibrant after the i9000 got it so this means nothing for the vibrant
if im reading that correctly that does meant that we will eventually be getting gingerbread but if im not mistaken the release coming next week is supposed to be for international sgs phones.
I thought the vibrant was a US only variant? Also you would think we would have seen leaked builds by now from krylon.

I tried installing kies again and updated it tio the version required but I can't get kies tio recognize my phone. Kies 2.0 doesn't support my phone.

We got froyo 6 months after i9000, so if people are looking for a official GB, go look inside a toilet.
If you want a beta.... there MAY BE one.
but then again we already have 2 GB roms, and i'm pretty sure their the same.
Who gives a damn about official roms, im just happy this got out so our great developers will have something more solid and close for GB to our device than they do now.

Has anyone checked this at all? I'm guessing its probably ed01?
The pdf states it is in fact froyo with ed01.. at least it's here though, regardless of that fact!
Yep. According to BGR delivery starts tomorrow.
I'll have to check my wife's phone tonight/tomorrow to see what's up. However, the last update was posted on VZW site a couple of days before it was actual OTA on her phone.
anyone care to speculate on the steps required to receive the ota update if you're already running a leaked froyo modem/kernel/rom?
I settled into the stock de-binged ec01 modem & rom with imnuts' 100mv uv kernel... The rom allows me to check for ota updates - and as of now says no updates are available...
It'll be interesting to see if ota will try to update my "ec01" to an official ED01. I doubt it, and I doubt it would be successful if it tried...

I would advise most on here to hold off on the ota update. They are touting a "feature" of bing voice search, meaning deeper bing integration. Probably one of the things that held this update up so long. I'll be waiting for a stripped down rom. It's just a shame that the source is so bad that development on our phones is not going to be as robust as it should for all its power.

I would bet that ec01 is the stripped down rom & that the radio is the same ec01 leaked last week. Remember Adrynalyne said the build prop was altered to change the date for leak protection. They got it & already fixed it for us. You can't beat XDA!

Downloading OTA in NYC, I guess they released it nationwide.
Manual ED01 download links and update instructions for those who don't have the update available or want to download it and play with it first.
any ETA as to when a root tool will be available for the VZW 2.2 release?
Spoke to Reston, VA today. They claim they are still working on the official GB update to the Epic with Samsung. They don't want to have any problems like they had with the Froyo update (according to them- there was a "lag" issue with the rotation on 2.2 OTA update). No date planned as of yet. Please stand by...
As long as its working right when it comes out. Thanks.

if only we could get em to release the source (with EVERYTHING needed) and let the community fix it for them, since we all know it would happen 10x faster than they are getting things done. Oh well, keep dreaming right?
Samsung should just give up and let the Epic community work on GB. Give them the source code and I bet they will have a fully functional build of GB within a month.
