I'm running software version 1.32.651.6. I didn't apply the second over the air update and have my phone setup to manually check for updates and when I check for updates it says that my phone is up to date. I know were waiting for Froyo but I don't even have a choice to get the last ota update. Anyone know why this is?

Update for a phone that isn't officially released? Are you in the right forum?
I think he meant the EVO forum... at least the numbers looked like the ones I was seeing before I returned my EVO.
Only drivers can be downloaded from Software tab now. Perhaps a new link is forthcoming with patches, or perhaps 2.3?
Right, who am I kidding....
They pulled the update within 3 days of it's release, I believe.
Sprint site did, I believe. Samsung's was still up as of this morning, gone now.
Now I just hope they release a new update soon...Ever since the froyo update my 3g is slow and wifi and 4g are practically useless, It times out so much
they'll probably be releasing a new update soon.
Check my thread in development for the files

And the waiting game begins again. And as usual we will probably hear nothing specific from Samsung or Sprint about a newer update and a time frame...sigh.
Probably yanked due to that big root exploit that made its way on the market.
Yep, but I and probably others have all the files from the site. See threads or contact us if ya want them.

Yeah, I noticed late last night the files were gone. I'm thinking positive here and believe it signals the imminent release of an improved Froyo.

Not likely, since that exploit would also affect all versions of Eclair. Currently only Gingerbread has a native patche for the exploit.

should i uodate or not?
I got the files straight from the samsung website. I was literally about to update to eb13 but after reading this i am wondering if i should wait or maybe update with the roms that are out there instead? any opinion? also i spoke with a sprint store manager who told me she did the update yesterday for multiple customers using the file downloaded from samsung and there where no issues.
Did my dads over the weekend and he told me yesterday his phone is working better than it ever has.

When I first updated to EB13, it was aweful. I can't get Samsungs drivers to load on my Sony laptop or desktop so no rooting...plus all of the known failures.
I took it in to a Sprint Center and they had soome fixes and did a clean install for me including, the fixes. Now, for the most part, all is good. Still lousy wifi signal and no root,wired tether or wireless tether... except through The Hotspot.
The tech said it was what Samsung had given them to fix the update.

Sprint has now asked us not to do any upgrades with eb13 at all OTW. Just saw this in my email, so not sure of the details.

Motorola XOOM users on the Verizon Wireless network: starting tonight, a maintenance release is rolling out to you in phases, so watch for a notification on your device that will tell you when it’s ready for download. The update includes required enhancements to support Adobe® Flash® Player 10.2 (coming soon); it also includes a fix for a bug we identified with Daylight Savings time, so be sure to install it!

well, maybe this will fix my wierd clock issue today... hmmm
At least this shows how quickly updates will come... I guess.
how will us with wifi only get this?
Any update is good news at this point I think. I wonder if there is any harm in updating, ie will it remove the ability to root and what not? I wish they would provide more details on what exactly the patch does. Also, it clearly says on the Verizon network, what about those not on it and are only on wifi?

MY droid always popped up updates even when I was only on wifi. I imagine we'll all get it or someone will post the update.zip anyway.
I'm curious if the Tegra 2 versions of flash (10.1) floating around will have something to interact with, and start functioning. They have with everything else. As soon as I get the OTA (no 3G), I have a folder full of them in my Dropbox.

Question of the day. No dialer :/
yesssssssssssss
Glad to see an update but there is nothing listed to get excited about except a possible problem with the upcoming daylight savings time switch. Who cares about the flash update since it does not actually include it. But this will be a good test run to see how the updates are sent out and applied.
Cann't wait for the update to start

You can force a check by rebooting. Not the best method, but it works.
Why do unlocked xooms need to get relocked?
I understand why you need to be on stock boot.img but i don't understand why you need to have the device relocked to get the update.
It makes no sense.

According to the system update tab this didn't happen in 3 reboots since the announcement. Still last check at 5:20. Really want to see if any of the 10.1 Tegra versions work after this. I've been frantic to have Flash lately (PlayOn/Netflix).

It might have a minimum time between checkins. Mine said 9:20am, then showed current time for last checkin when I rebooted.
So would it be fair to say that those of us who have rooted should wait until this update is released to see if in fact we really do need to revert back to stock/locked condition? Because I'd really be pissed if we had to lose all of the data on our Xooms just for this update, when very few of us have actually changed anything with the boot.img, etc. I mean back when I first rooted my N1 but before I flashed custom ROMs, I never had to wipe back to stock to receive OTA updates, so why would that be the case here??
It looks like changing the dates/time on our clocks have no effect on whether or not you WILL receive the update, just how fast you get it if you were already part of the group scheduled to receive it. It looks like the Google servers picks a list of Xooms that are next for the updates, and pushes those updates to each Xoom on that "list" when your device communicates with the google servers. So, in short, you get the update when your number is called...so changing the dates will not guarantee you an update, you HAVE to be on the next phase list. So those who changed their dates on the Xoom were already on the phase list, they just got their updates faster because they forced their Xooms to communicate with google's servers quicker by forcing an update check. Hope that makes sense guys
Is this supposed to make me feel better?
no, but it just explains what your doing when your changing the time. If your not on the list you won't get it, but it does its check only so often so changing the date is a guarentee whether or not your on the list to get the update pushed. This way people can understand what theyre doing and not have to complain.

LOL..No, it doesn't make me feel better either, but at least you can get an idea of how it works. It would be nice to know how often and when does Google send out the updates from their servers, so we push our Xooms to check for updates during those times!
So ....
If we missed out on the update for whatever reason can we expect our number to be called again?

you cant miss the update, your "Xoom ID" is stored in each phase, so if your group was sent the update and your Xoom was powered off, etc.. once you turn your Xoom on, the Xoom will check in with the Google server, and the server will automatically send you the update.

Well in 3.1 they added a check now ability for the system update. So they should let us know a little more about how they implement Over The Air updates. I'd imagine if the majority of the users on the list that is available checked as soon as it came out there might be an issue with server power or whatever. But I dont understand what is taking so long, and if more people buy xooms how long will it take next time?

it wont cause any server issues whatsoever, if they wanted to push out the updates to everyone immediately, they can with a push of a button (literally) My guess is that they are just playing it safe in the event that something goes wrong with the updates, better to have a small group with problems instead of EVERY single Tablet owner. I was told that the the list of each group in every phase grows as long as there are no reported issues with the updates.
I don't know about you, but I haven't seen one thing about 3.1 screwing up anything, so push that button.

Like they're doing OTA updates to one up Apple pretty much, and it is just a fail unless your the one sitting there with 3.1... then again I did always have to wait a month or so with my iPhone for the jailbreak community to make the update... but like, this is for stock I'm waiting. I feel like I'm in court for a traffic ticket waiting for the judge to call my name.

HA! Exactly! We should start a petition: "PUSH THE BUTTON, GOOGLE!"
(in case it doesn't come across, I'm kidding about the petition.)
there should be an option to update manually from your computer like apple does, or just wait for ota...
I just got the OTA update last night...glad i didn't have to wait too long...
at 1st i was changing dates every hour or so...then just said hell with it when it comes it comes...lol
What I really really want to know is if having a rooted xoom and an overclock kernel excludes me from the update or makes me incompatible.
I have seen people say that as soon as they reverted to stock they received the update. I also know that rooted users cash manually install it through adb but I don't have experience with that and would rather do something easier.
In essence if I wait long enough, can I still get 3.1 OTA even though rooted, etc etc?

If you are rooted, the OTA update will fail on install when it comes. You can either 1) Go back to stock and wait or, 2) Do the install methods available for rooted users in the Development section.

I can't get KIES to recognize my Tab. I plug it in, and it acts like it's trying to connect, but the media scanner on my Tab starts, crashes, and then the Tab connects via MTP.
I'm really confused, and I'm about to just download the ROM and work from there.
Download Samsung Kies from the Samsung website and connect your Tab to the computer. It should prompt you that a firmware update is available. While the update is being installed, your Tab will not show as being connected to Kies. Just wait until your device boots up again and disconnect. My device was the same way and didn't receive the OTA update right away.
Don't update it. It just causes more problems.

OTA reports no update available. Kies recognizes my US Wifi model, but just says "Your device does not support software upgrading via Kies." Does this on several different PCs. Any clue?

Before upgrading my Tab I received a small software update on the day the update was released. Then I was able to get the firmware update through Kies.
