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.
Sent from my Epic 4g Runnin Froyo...rooted for my pleasure!!
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??

Just saw this tweet a few minutes ago.
Looks like we're in line for an update next month. With the Telstra OTAs I don't really care too much (unless we see something unique in this OTA, which I doubt). But at least for the majority of people who aren't flashing SBFs there's a glimmer of hope.
Any idea what the update will include? Hopefully getting rid of the cap.
My Atrix is working rather well, sometimes these updates do more bad than good.
I knew mid-may was way too early but next month is alright I guess.
Not too late at all...2 months after everybody else is awesome!
Hopefully we'll might get our first "Official Stock SBF" to fall back on out of that...

The Bell update will likely be full of the same bloat and using it will fragment development of our custom pseudi-rom and themes.
There is no way this is Gingerbread since bell branded updates are ALWAYS behind others.
Since that french SBF came out, I started to regret slightly my choice to go for a ATT Atrix ...

The French SBF is real good, definitely one of the best SBF's out at the moment IMO. I hope that when Gingerbread is released we get more of these bloat free SBF's (fingers crossed!)

Us bell people really just get a slap in the face everytime an update for an android phone comes out.... just saying
sent from my rooted, canadian Motorola Atrix (4G)
A software update is now available for the Bell version of the Motorola Atrix!
- To download the update manually:
Go to Menu > Settings > About Phone > Software Update
- I'm not sure what the size of the update file is, but I would suggest downloading it over WiFi as opposed to the Bell network so you don't exceed your data allowance and incur extra charges.
- Ensure that your phone is at least 50% charged before attempting the update. Idealy, charge it beyond 50% to be safe.
-- The updated version is v37.23 and brings Android Froyo up to version 2.2.2, and contains numerous updates:
Upload Data Speed
Increased upload speed at which data can travel on the network.
Data and Voice Connection
Improvements to prevent interruptions to data and voice connection.
Screen
Improvements to prevent screen from freezing.
Skype
Improvements to call audio function so it is easier for the person you called to hear you. Please note this application is not pre-loaded on phone, but is available for download from Android Market.
Wi-Fi
Increased functionality by enabling Yahoo Email to be sent over a Wi-Fi connection.
Display
Improved International Roaming Warning Message by simplifying user notification so that it only appears on the screen when you move to a new network.
Happening Widget
Improved Happenings Widget to ensure that you receive the latest updates across the social networks you are connected to such as Facebook, MySpace, Twitter.
Calling
Improvements were made to incoming and outgoing call functionality to ensure a more seamless experience
Expanded Language Support for Webtop
Accented character support within Webtop application.
Improved Support for POP/SMTP Email
Support for SMTP outgoing servers that do not require authentication
Improved Exchange Performance
Improved Exchange Email/Calendar/Contacts performance
Hopefully someone will post the file or download location on here. for those that made the leap to another stock rom.
Coming in very slowly. I didnt catch how bit it was...
Upload speed fixed, SWEET. I hate being gimped.
y2whisper:
Yeah, I seem to recall that Motorola has a special section of their website for Canada where you can download Canadian updates.... though a quick look for it now and I can't find it. I'm sure someone will dig it up, if it exists.
To anyone who installs this update, will you please report back here and let us know if your network data speeds have improved, if you lost any data from your phone, etc?
Personally, I've got way too much on my phone to be brave enough to install the update without hearing some confirmations from others first that it's a problem free update
As far as I know, no data is supposed to be lost during the updates... but... well, you know....
I'm kind of scared, my atrix is working very well.
I'll wait a few days.
Nice to see any updates though.
its 43MB so not a full SBF. Managed to get the notification by editing my build.prop
Will report the data test in 5 %
I get 2295kbps upload speed sweet!

So far, after update...
1. Launcher Pro still intact.
2. I use Multicon to squeeze in a bunch of apps on my homepage and it has populated properly.
3. I see Super User listed in my Apps with my allow list intact. BUT when I try to do somethign liek use my AdjBrightness app to adjust the screen brightness it does not actually do anything. Re-rooting may be required. Scared .
4. disconnected from WIFI, Speedtest from Ottawa to NY, NY
1st test
Ping: 85, Down: 2607, Up: 2895!!!!!
Yea Baby!
2nd test
Ping: 88, Down: 2148, Up: 1541
3rd
Ping: 80, Down: 1563, Up: 1617
I'm Happy with that. All test were from inside a building.
Just finished update - no data loss. Upload speed is faster.
LauncherPro seems to be smoother....still playing with it.

Having the exact same problem. So annoying!
i have the same problem... nmy apps report an internet conncection but doesnt download everything.
this seems like a packet loss problem to me but I'm not 100%
i can have full bars on both 3g or hspa or be on wifi and same problem
can anyone check to see if there is some sort of packet handling issue
Same issue here. What's worse is that the phone indicates everything is fine, until you actually try to retrieve some data.
I've found that cycling Airplane mode for about 30sec usually fixes this. I just added the Airplane Mode widget for now. Hopefully there will be a fix soon.
anyone have battery issues as well
i have also noticed another big issue....the batter stats is never correct....so lets say you have 15 percent battery left....reboot your phone and upon unlocking your phone your phone says that you have 50% battery left. or you use the internet or call for a bit and after 30 minutes your phone still says it has 100% battery left
pettion for upgrade to the new atrix 4g coming out soon. it is said to be a rumor that there is a new atrix coming but i spoke to a support rep at att and they said that there will be a new atrix coming soon that was an hour ago

I had the problem just before the update, but the connection was still buggy. Then I put the samcripp rom ninja 0.4 and now it s perfect like never before. maybe it has nothing to do with that it s what happened.

Do you have the newest Market version on your phone? I was having that exact same problem. I CWM'd the older version of the Market and poof, no more problems. Might be a place to start.
Check this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1188740
If you have the latest Android Market installed, it seems that it's affecting connectivity. Some have reverted to the older Market and confirmed that the issues went away.
I am still on baseband .15 and the new market works fine.
I guess I'll wait for confirmation before I update my baseband to .30... It's really too bad because I am having random data drops with .15.
the new baseband improved my connection

Lets put it to a vote! Which is the best stock firmware to use. I was actually happy on 1.2.6 and upgraded to 1.8.3. Can i downgrade if i upgrade using pudding 2.3.4? I find so many threads saying yes and no.
Version: 4.5.91 - Downgradable or not?
Version: 1.2.6
Version: 1.5.2
Version: 1.5.7
Version: 1.8.3
I have tried only 1.2.6 and 1.8.3, i seemded to have better battery on 1.2.6, but slightly better signal on 1.8.3 which is the reason i switched, but didnt have issues with calls on 1.2.6 until i flashed again so i may just need to do a factory wipe. I am rooted, custom boot logo, BL unlocked, sideloading enabled, CWM recovery, custom boot animation, and have the radio files ready to be flashed if the signal/radio is better on 2.3.4.
After voting if you please could post why you like that version and if you voted for multiple versions please post why and which ones. Thank you.
If any of you have or have found the change log notes for any version above please post them.
The new 4.1.57 software update is 17MB in size and brings along the following improvements
Bluetooth: Improved multimedia experience with Bluetooth devices as well as the ability to use phone with additional headsets.
Fingerprint reader: Improved fingerprint reader performance.
Battery: Improved battery performance for longer battery life.
Screen: Display will turn off automatically now while charging directly on wall charger.
Phone stability: Improved stability resulting in fewer occurrences of touch unresponsiveness and/of programs quitting unexpectedly.
Car dock: Improved performance of car dock and 3.5mm jack.
Motorola’s v4.1.83
Data Speed Increased speed at which data can travel on the network.
Data Connection Improvements to prevent interruptions to data connection.
Screen Improvements to prevent screen from freezing.
Email Improved ability for users to receive email notifications so you know when you have a new message. Also, improvements were made so that you are now able to use the same email login to access both MOTOBLUR™ and YouTube.
Skype Improvements to call audio function so it is easier for the person you called to hear you. Please note this application is not pre-loaded on the phone, but is available for download from the Android Market.
Wi-Fi Increased functionality by enabling Yahoo Email to be sent over a Wi-Fi connection.

Happenings Widget Improved Happenings Widget to ensure that you receive the latest updates across the social networks you are connected to such as Facebook, MySpace, and Twitter.
Calling Improvements were made to incoming and outgoing call functionality to ensure a more seamless experience.
This vote will also help me decide to flash again except to 2.3.4(4.5.91), then i will start looking at whether to use pudding or the official SBF, if you have any thoughts on those two SBF's please post as well. I aint gonna use the OTA after what i read.
What is the point of this? Obviously 2.3.4 is miles better than the Froyo builds.
I myself would love to see an old android build get fruitcaked. Even pre-froyo, it just would take me back lol. But I don't think I'd want it for my daily driver. Just to mess with.

Clearly you have every opportunity to post your own poll on the international builds. Instead of getting your thong all knotted up about this, how about trying something that contributes even a minute amount of value instead of insulting an entire country...which quite frankly makes you look just as bad as those your targeting with your ire.
I am focused on versions that i will be using. The point is that some people like older versions, not everyone has upgraded since some can never go back. If you dont like the thread then dont post or vote, its that simple.

This post as mentioned above was to help me decide and see what people that have had the phone longer that me liked. I was sitting on 1.2.6, then jumped to 1.8.3 and then decide after the help of the good XDA members yesterday to hop onto 2.3.4, if i could use any of the other builds i would list them. I listed all builds that i am able to use.
