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?

If nothing happens,i think this may be the day that I cave and root.

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'm already on EB01 with his port of Matted Blues Engraved. I'm just curious if anyone that's still on stock EA28 has checked for an update.

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.
Actually the epic didn't get ota, to my understanding they had a download on the website. Maybe we will too?

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.
I'm running stock and haven't received any notifications that there is an OTA update.

Expected as much from our loyal providers..

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!
I hate to have to ask this question, but I've read 6 or 7 threads in the last hour and can't find a straight answer. I'm in S. FL. Will Froyo be updated on our phones automatically?
I understand I can update manually, but I don't have time for that, which is part of the reason I left WinMo.

If you are on stock Android 2.1 (Eclair), you will get the update over the air within the next 3 days.
If you are not stock Android 2.1 (Eclair), you won't.
Yes. If you are not rooted and stock rom, you'll get a notice on your phone over the next few days when it's your area's turn. If you are rooted, you should still get it if you are on stock rom and all the bloatware is still there.

The first update we received a few months back took a week to get to my phone, and it kept popping up at rather inconvenient times when it finally showed. The visual voice mail update took 4 weeks to get to my phone. I'm in Central FL
I did the simple update method, which I posted about here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=964260. I had my update installed before most OTAs, and I did it on my time. You could do it on your lunch break without issue.
you know it just takes 10 minutes right.
do it while you're taking a dump or something

The update has been temporarily suspended, its been causing a lot of trouble with peoples phones. If you really want it, you're going to have to use the update.zip.
Ok, at this rate I will never get an update pushed to my phone. I wonder if its safe for me to just update manually.

Just realize that the Samsung tool wipes everything on your phone, and if you are on stock 2.1 I don't think there is any good way to back up everything. (no clockwork backup and titanium wont work w/o root)
My backup pro works just fine. it will save data and apps with data.

So is that it, Samsung not going to release the fixed Froyo!? After waiting eternity, Samsung released a long over due Froyo just to shutup pissed customers, only for the release to be buggie and them take it down shortly after and totally forget about us again! I think this will be the last Samsung phone I ever buy!
Samsung = company that only cares about future products...not supporting current/old ones.

I have not seen or heard anybody receiving the 2.3.3 update lately, am starting to wonder if Google put a hold on it,has anybody received it via ota recently? ??
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
Google would have notified the community via twitter if they pulled it. Their original tweet said it would take a few weeks to get it out to everyone. Either wait patiently or push the update file readily available here on these forums.

So you want the update but you don't want the color change...? I'm confused. You can very easily backup 2.3.2 or even get the 2.3.2 colors on 2.3.3 with any Voodoo kernel
Also, I can say that for myself, the new colors look perfect. I wouldn't change them back for anything.

you never even tried 2.3.3 so you wouldnt know if you liked the color change or not. you can also flash a custom kernel (Netarchy's 1.2.5 has 2.3.2 colors and it works on 2.3.3)

the color is a intentional change they officially announced it
And actually a friend of mine updated his ns over the weekend and his looks like sh*t,but like some have said "not every screen is the same" may manually update tonight just to see what happens...

Yes it was intentional, but so are updates they release....doesn't mean there perfect or without flaws,always room for improvement ...just saying...
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
I plan to update when I get the OTA. Haven't cared so much about it that I wanted to bother with the manual update. Still waiting on it, but we're only about halfway through the rollout period Google said to expect.
Was wondering the same thing, when 2.3.2 came out, me and my wife's ns got it 1 day apart. My wife's ns has gotten 2.3.3 for one week now, and mine still hasn't.
Just went cm7 today.
I was wondering along the same lines that OP said..
Havent received the OTA notification yet, and i've been 'checkin' quite often ...
but like kenvan19 said...google did say it'll take a few weeks..so let's hang tight..

You will also have to give yourself about two weeks of use to get used to color temperatures that are actually accurate.

So, besides the kernel changes, ext4 and stock app removal, what are the differences between the released stock EC05 and Bonsai's EC05? Is Bonsai just a modded stock one or it is some EB13/EC05 hybrid?
for future reference, questions end in "?" and statements end in ".".
Once I get my PRL updated, I'm going back to Bonsai. I might take Sprint ID with me

I've read where people were successfully updating after flashing EC05. I thought it was ROM issue but I may end up trying it manually.

Well, ive been able to update, my prl on every rom no matter what,
ive been on d118,dk28 bonsai,eb13 bonsai
every modem and always was able to update my prl
ever since sunday when i got the new ec05 bonsai is when it stopped working, even it stopped working on bonsai eb13 on a different phone when it used to work,
so like is said pretty sure its a sprint deal and hopefully working soon when everyone start to get the ota...
I actually like Sprint ID. Works much better on the Epic than the Transform. There are also some new default Wallpapers.

So it seems... A half hour ago it told me there were no updates available, now it's giving me errors. I've had fun playing with the update, back to Bonsai I go!
I know this isn't directly related to the epic but thought I would share it. My friend at school has Motorola Droid, the original one, with Netflix and streaming works. I asked him how he got it cause he's not rooted and he said its on the market. Its not on mine though :-( what up with that?

I think I remember reading it has something to do with the optimization of the hummingbird processors. Something is fixed in Gingerbread which is why it can stream on EF02 but not on EC05. Simple solution if you want netflix is to flash one of the EF02 roms like i3. I prefer the speed and battery of Frozen 1.2 though. Can't wait till we get our official GB update. I am excited to see what ACS can do with that source code.
+1 to Imann. It has to do with our processors and 2.2. It works perfectly on 2.3 for our Epics though.
I'm on the ef02 leak anyway so it doesn't really matter to me, I just thought that it wouldn't work on froyo period. Thanks for the info guys.
