Just FYI anyone waiting for the xoom update it hasn't been successful for me yet but i will try every couple of hours. If you manually set the date to a farther ahead date say a couple days your xoom will check for an update. i noticed the time changing everytime i do it under system updates. So anyone wanting to force an update check change the date you can always just re check auto time.
Poop I Want it now.... is it including the bluetooth mouse support?
Just did this and update started downloading. Installing right now!

For those who have gotten the update, is it locking down the bootloader?

dev forums mention that you loose SU and have to redo the rights but then good to go.
just did this as well, tried it two times in two minutes.
First, nothing happened but the time changed for the last update.
Second time when I clicked the system updates under settings it popped up saying I had a new update.
Downloading now, well see how my rooted wifi only handles it!
Just finished... And nothing happened. I am still on 3.0.1, this happened earlier when I got an update notification and clicked install now or whatever.
Anyone know why this might be?
3.1 has a "check now" button.
The OTA update won't go through if you're rooted. Flash using one of the methods in the development section, or return to stock and wait for the OTA all over again (which is what I did.)
Did anyone update and not have it work? I installed the update and everything seemed to go well but after I checked about tablet section and it still says that it is 3.0.1. I am rooted running an older version if titamat. Haven't messed with it yet, at a first communion but was hoping someone had this problem

No way to go stock with a wifi only, once you root you are stuck...

I was just about to go to bed, and my newly-exchanged Epic 4G just popped up an update screen asking me to update to DI18.
Sorry if this is duplicate news, but I heard that DI18 was delayed indefinitely, so I guess they're rolling it out now.
Anyone else getting it OTA yet?

Did anyone else get their phone un-rooted by the update? After the reboot, I tried launching SetCPU, and got an error message that root wasn't available & it was running in read-only mode.
I'm not sure whether I should be happy that I didn't have to unroot it first to get the update, or furious about an OTA update unrooting what was (I thought) a permanent rooting.

The word "permanent" is used very loosely, so I've learned.
Still nothing here?

I've been getting prompted all morning to update, haven't done it yet though as I am rooted. But yes, it will come to you if you're rooted
Confirmed that the update is rolling out. It's best to go way of manuel update with a rooted phone though.

Hey guys quick question, I woke up this morning to turn my alarm off and there was a message that my update finally arrived. I clicked ok and went back to sleep and thought it would update the phone. I am still rooted and oclf is still in effect my quadrant score was ~2200. System info said 2.1-update 1 and T959UVJFD. I don't think it went through.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
You are correct, the update didnt apply itself to your phone.
But from the sounds of it you are rather lucky it didnt. Most rooted users who leave their phone rooted and try to apply the update end up in the Q&A section starting a threadlike "OTA brocked my phone"
I suggest you remove the lag fix, un root, and then search the forums for the post about using launcher pro to force your phone to search for the update.
Conversely, there is also a thread about how to manually install the new update.
Again, you will have to search it out as I cant currently post links.
Hope this helps

I had the same thing happen. I was rooted with OCLF installed, I disabled everything, unrooted, and uninstalled OCLF.
I went ahead and started the update and BAM! "froze" on vibrant screen- good bye! I had to ODIN, and reflash back to stock.
Up to you at this point...good luck.

For anybody still waiting impatiently on the update. You may want to consider flashing Fusion 1.1 from the dev section. It is from the update build so you wouldnt need the update, and it is a lot faster and very stable. Read through the forum over there if you are interested. There is a lot of excellent feedbeck. It can be flashed over JFD through clockwork very easily.
I just picked up my nexus S about an hour ago and so far I love it. This is my first smartphone so I have some noob questions. If I want to install a 3rd party keyboard (like swype) how/ where do I do this? How do I update the os to the nexus s? If I hook it up to my computer is it automatically gonna start updating it or something? I am not sure that I want the gingerbread 2.3.3 update because I love the display as it is now and dont want it changed.
For swype, just Google swype beta and sign up. I believe registration is open right now. As far as updates, your phone will eventually prompt you if you want to update. If you choose yes, it will download the update to your phone and perform the update.

Even I have the same doubt, how will I be able to upgrade to 2.3.3?
You can manually update if you follow the guides in the development section. Otherwise, you'll have to wait for the ovrr thr air update that they are in the process of pushing out right now. There's no way to determine when your device is marked to receive it. Could be minutes, hours, days.

you can manually push the update to 2.3.3 through recovery located here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=967953
same exact file you would get from the OTA
How exactly do these OTA updates work? sorry about all the questions, am new to this stuff
Maybe there are some threads about this topic, but for some reason I can not find them, so I decided to ask here:
Is everybody who is using stock rom on Nexus S already on 2.3.3?
I am still on 2.3.2, because the OTA did not reach me, yet.
I know, Google said that it will take some weeks, but the was a lot of weeks ago.
I am dialing the *#*#2432546#*#* at least once per week, but no luck.
I don't want to root and and push it manually.
Anyone else in the same situation?
you don't need root to push it manually.
you just download the .zip from "2.3.3 links" thread, rename it to update.zip place it on the root of your sdcard.
boot into recovery, install update.zip from sdcard
reboot... grats on your 2.3.3
i think for the nexus s you don't need to rename to update.zip. i didn't have to for 2.3.2
I'm still waiting too I had my nexus s since January what's really good
There had been reports where people aren't getting the ota anymore. So manually update or don't get it at all.

Why would they stop pushing 2.3.3???

conspiracy theories abound.

I believe they abandoned it and opted to push a newer update which would be released in April. But its almost May so who knows.
The manual update is incredibly painless. I don't understand why people are insisting on OTA.
Quick question regarding the manual update. Will I get future updates OTA after manually updating.?

yes its the same file you get from the OTA.

I did as suggested, and it worked just fine.
I actually like the new color scheme. It looks more natural to me.
BUT, every time i wake up my phone from stand by, I get to see the GPS icon blinking in the notification bar.
Sometimes, even WiFi switches on itself.
I never saw this behaviour on the 2.3.2 build.
Is this the phone trying to update its location?
I don't want to switch off GPS or Networkin the Location & security settings, as I use Google maps multiple times a day.
I just downloaded the update it fires through the unzipping process, then boots into I am assuming some sort of stock recovery. But then I get the red explanation point on the bee. I waited about ten minutes and I hit the power button. It boots up and tells me update failed. Do I need to unrooted before doing the update? Thank you in advance!

Why you telling you received ics update? Upload the update for us and let see if it is ics , I think isn't .
Man that would be nice.
Sent from my SGH-I777 using xda premium
I have never performed an update on my a500 but I would assume that being rooted would affect the update process. Try downloading OTA keeper from the market. It creates a backup of the root and temporary unroots the device. After the update run the app and restore root.
I an not sure how to upload the update. I will try the other suggestion that was made. I didn't think the updates would happen this early but it said 4.010.00. I will do my best to update this if this is ics?

what version of android is running on your tablet? 3.0.1 or 3.2.1?
I'm betting this is just one of Acers 3.2.1 updates. People are always getting confused with their version numbers.
Sorry to say, but you're being misled by the "Build Number" rather than the OS version. The same happened to me in November.
I have a Gateway tablet (variant of the a500). When I first got it, it upgraded itself to "Build 4.010.02". I was excited, as you are, but it was just the Honeycomb 3.2 upgrade, nothing more.
Again, sorry. It's not here yet. I wish Acer would just list the OS version when telling you you have a system update.
ve4grm is right......it's Honeycomb not ICS.....woulda been nice had it been though...
Dang, well thanks for setting me straight. I still wonder though will I have issues doing the update from my stock ROM?
Sent from my ADR6350 using xda premium
kinz - i was in the same position as you. that build number really annoying!
But i believe ICS from Acer stock would have build number 7 prefix.
Thank you I guess we'll see in about a month.
