New Android 2.2 Software Update for Nexus One phones
Starting today, Nexus One users will begin to receive the Android 2.2 (codenamed Froyo) over-the-air software update on their phones. This update provides some great new features including support for making your handset a portable hotspot and support for Adobe Flash within the browser. For a complete list of everything we’ve included in Android 2.2, please see the Android 2.2 Platform Highlights.
In order to access the update, you will receive a message on your phone's notification bar. Just download the update, wait for it to install, and you should be all set. This update will be rolled out gradually to phones - and most users will receive the notification by the end of the week . We hope you enjoy these new features.

Just got the OTA this morning when I woke up. I was on FRF83, the new update was 507kb and brought my NExus One to FRF85B.

Very cool. Not all that exciting, more of a relief than anything. Clearly something fishy was up as the last few builds didn't seem to have any issues anyway...oh well glad its over. Now wheres gingerbread dammit!?!?!

Oh wow!!! I haven't even had a chance to play with froyo yet and you guys are already pushin for gingerbread......am I that far behind? lol

Great news.

I am curious, don't the at&t phones get a version with a different build number than T-mobile phones? I was reading that at&t guys were getting this same update build as well.

Nope, same build for both, so no more update fragmentation.
I suspect the Euro ones wil get a different build, just for different localisation options.

Anyone notice that the video is 1 month old? Lol

If i have the stock 2.1 update 1 rom, which is rooted, has kmobs kernel and amon ra recovery, I suppose I wont get an OTA right?
How would I go about updating when someone creates an update.zip? Do i have to wipe anything?

I'm currently running Froyo build FRF50. I can't seem to see the update OTA from systems update. FYI, I'm currently traveling in Vietnam. If I download the .zip recovery of FRF85, will it work?

google wont push the update to every phone at once, it will be a gradual update through all the phones, so you wont see it in system updates until your phone is selected to recieve it.

Got my OTA update a couple of hours ago. On T-Mobile in UK. Update from FRF83 to FRF85B.

You can manually update FRF50 to FRF83, then FRF83 to FRF85B. Or just wait for OTA.

I have build number ERE27. Will I still get the update?

Yes of course you will.

excellent news. waiting for a FRF85B ROM or a FRF83->FRF85B patcher now...
edit: the update.zip was out last night

Good work Google, this is exactly the update we've all been waiting for you to release!

My N1 isnt rooted, running stock 2.2.1, I never seem to get these updates even when using *#*#CHECKIN#*#* what would be wrong? Bootloader is unlocked, shouldnt I still be able to get OTA updates?

just worked for me on my stock nex luthor, bohemus.

Lovely, another update that doesn't fix the WPA-EAP bug.

I doubt it has anything to do with GB. It is just a collection of pretty minor changes across the board.
To me it looks like rather bad news: what is the point of pushing out yet another minor update if there is a major update waiting just around the corner?

Same here! Can't remember the last time I got an OTA update. It's almost like I've been taken out of Google's update queue or something. It's very odd :-\

Well ... it is 2.2.2 to N1 and 2.3.2 to NS , at the same time ...

Just got it here. N1 stock was running 2.1. Suddenly came up.
Now running

Cool...looks like it updated your radio version from 4.06 to 5.08?
Did it update your HBoot version from .33 to.35?

I bet it's the SMS bugfixes that have been getting all that press recently and has nothing to do with laying the groundwork for GB or HC or IC or whatever else.

I agree this does seem like bad news.
Android is in a really bad news cycle right now and Google is trying to do damage control.

Cannot install 2.3.6 manually on my Nexus S!

Hi everyone,
I downloaded the 2.3.6 (latest one) update, followed all instructions and tried to install it. However, I get a "signature verification failed" message.
I bought this phone brand new from some guy on kijiji and currently using it on Rogers - with everything working perfectly fine (minus the annoying search bug) Here are my specs:
current version: 2.3.4
Baseband: I9020AUCKD1
Kernel: 2.6.35.7-ge382d80
Build #: GRJ22
Please help!!!
Thanks!

Are you sure you are installing the update for the i9020a and not the one for the i9020t?

Thanks for the tip. I will hold off on this plan for now then.
I just don't know why I haven't received a SINGLE OTA update till date. I am still stuck on 2.3.4. I didn't even receive one for the GRK39C 2.3.6 a few weeks ago. Any reason why?

I didn't receive the update either. Google cancelled it I believe because it broke USB tethering, which people use a lot more than voice search.
I'm just waiting for the Ice Cream Sandwich update
Couldn't care less about Gingerbread these days.

As stated, the update killed tethering, both USB and hotspot.
As for why you did not get it, the explanation is simple. When El'Goog push out an OTA, it does so to a set percentage of phones, as each day rolls by, they add more and more phones, untill over a week or two period of time, all phones get the update.
with the 2.3.6, the update got canceled before being released to all the phones, your phone just happened to be in the group that had not received it yet.
Now as to why the current one failed, the 2.3.6 that is listed in my sticky applies to ONLY the i9020T/i9023 and NOT the i9020a, so the signature will fail.
if you grab the OTA from the thread that is listing ALL ota's, it should apply, if you still get a signature failure, please state the ENTIRE message as it should indicate what fails the signature.

I got the update last night cause I'm using the i9020A and I'm currently on 2.3.4 ... it failed on me when I pressed install...

2.3.6 that was released on the AT&T/GSM version was pulled several weeks ago. The rollout of the fixed 2.3.6 for that version of the Nexus S has started rolling out as well. There's not a tethering issue with the 2.3.6 that is rolling out to the T-Mobile version.

Has anyone noticed any differences between 2.3.4 and 2.3.6?
I mean in terms of speed, performance and stability.
Is the update really worth it?

A500 Gen2 not getting ICS OTA (USA)

Anyone else in the US not getting the OTA in their Gen2? Wondering if I just have to go the manual route. I've been out of the loop lately, is there the OTA update available to download and use stock recovery to update?
Thanks,
Steve

Do you have the Iconia Update Enhancement installed from the play store?

I was also not getting, talked to the support few minutes back, they suggested factory reset, I said no thanks and did the manual upgrade downloading the zip file from here.

Wife got the update the day it came out. Make sure you have the acer update app. Location Northeast GA. Both hers and mine were gen 2 HC devices.

I went through about 3 updates before my device told me that I was up to date on honeycomb. I found a link to acer website with an update apk and it's now downloading more updates. I'm hoping upon next reboot I'll have ics.

I dont mean to hijack this thread but I have a gen2 device with the gen1 ICS leak from here and bootloaders. Is there any difference with going to a stock ICS update from Acer versus what I have already. and if I wanted to go this route (because Im an idiot and its a long story) where can I get a gen2 release of HC to do the updates or is there a flashable gen2 OS somewhere
Nevermind on that I got the info I was looking for

Sorry for the kate response but after installing the update enhancement , everything went fine.... thanks for the suggestion! Mustard missed that somewhere.
