Official froyo update

Does anyone know if the official froyo update will be OTA?

Most all of Android's OS updates are OTA. I am sure it will be for the Inc.

I would agree. The question is.... when? Everything I've read says "sometime in the fall".

Well, Google has a lot at stake in Froyo, so I hope that they're going to make sure it's fully baked before they release it. Plus they have the Flash factor - another reason to hold it until that's really done.
Given that, I don't expect 2.2 to appear in official OTA's for at least a couple of months and then HTC Sense builds are always behind the general release. Then you add the delay from the service providers (incl. Verizon) and Froyo OTA for Incredible in the Fall is almost optimistic =:-o
Rooted phones will always have it sooner...

Has the N1 not had the official Froyo OTA for weeks now?

They started deploying to the N1 and then stopped. Much speculation abounds about why, but no official explanation that I've seen. My g/f has a N1 and is about to drive me crazy wondering when she's gonna get Froyo. And when she does, I'm sure I'll be jealous for a few months

Thought you had some info. Please add a question mark to the thread title

Ditto that

yeah can we stop naming threads "official froyo update" when there is nothing official, froyo-like or update-ilicious about it. this is a question, first google search, and if ur still unsatisfied then put a question mark in your post title.

I was reading some phone webite and it said the offical release from Verizon was to be expected in August. Take that with a grain of salt as we all know how these "official" dates can move around at will.

a vzw rep told me that it was coming out july 15-16.

Its always more fun to laugh with others. Do all of yourselves a favor and do a google and youtube search for rr12106....Best [email protected] 3v3r haha
Id post links but cant...new member but take a look its worth it
lmfoa aka droidhacker...and i forget the other alias
His great froyo "ROMS", methods, and "froyo flashing apps"

Yeah, check out his Twitter account. He tried to get a Froyo build from Koush. I think you all can imagine why.
http://twitter.com/rr12106

omg haha...his twitter really is ridiculous. He is begging koush for cyanogen froyo rom. And obviously im sure koush wont give him a thing to "test" it for him, but I can bet he would rip it off of him first chance he got, only to come here and the rest of the android community and try convincing people he is the best developer ever.
It really is so sad that he tries to play make believe with his mad developer skills, yet all i can do is crack up at his fabricated stories. He is just sooo absurd. We have all seen how he posts things and finally after being backed into a corner by people who really know what they are talking about, he crumbles and apologizes with things like "im sorry im trying...i just love to develop and hack droids...uh dur". The way this kid acts on these forums mirrors his awesome youtube videos to a "T".
Anyway def needs ip ban. His "roms" and other methods and claims are really going to end up bricking some good and honest people new to android, or at the very least give the community forums some bad rep.

I'm dead serois a vzw employee told me that froyo was comng out this month

And if they told you Verizon was going GSM tomorrow, would you be gullible enough to believe that, too?
Seriously, a run of the mill VZW employee has no insight whatsoever into the release. Only a core group, none of which are going to be dealing with customers, is going to be in the know regarding a target date. That guy in the store or on the other end of the phone... he isn't privy to any kind of information about this just yet.
Hell, at this point, HTC states that they haven't even finished their work on Froyo. After they're done with their work, they perform testing. After that, it goes to VZW for them to do further testing and then get signed off on. All of this isn't going to happen in the next two weeks.

For all of you people saying we wont get Froyo

I was browsing Samsung's Official Twitter & They posted this link: http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/29/samsung-says-all-galaxy-s-phones-will-get-android-2-2/
Samsung has mercifully confirmed at an event in New York this evening that all Galaxy S versions -- including the Captivate, Epic 4G, Vibrant, and Fascinate -- will be receiving updates to Android 2.2 Froyo later this year and offer compatibility with Flash 10.1. All of the devices will be shipping with Android 2.1 out of the gate, so considering that Froyo's already launched, we're sure there'll be no shortage of pressure to get the updates fast-tracked. Sprint says it won't be a long wait on the Epic, but otherwise, we don't have any time frames at this point.
So for the people who said "My cousins, brothers, dog said we won't get Froyo.." Well just Read & Weep

We already know we are, it's just a matter of when and since some people are so impatient or assume - since it was not released on Sept 23rd or during the first few days of Oct - then it won't come at all, but, like I said, they are impatient.

Well, Samsung; Please Define: "Soon" In terms of Time.
Because my definition of soon is not 1/4 of a year.

That article is from the end of June. Next...

OP article is from June, before the launch of the phone...
And of course we're getting Froyo, a pre-release build (JP3) was leaked quite a while ago.

Umm, didn't they say the behold 2 was getting an upgrade and it never did?
So I don't think them saying prior to release the Galaxy S will get an upgrade is gospel in any way as you seem to be putting it.
Still, I don't think there's more than 1 or 2 people here or really don't think we'll ever get 2.2.
It's just how long they'll take and the longer they take, the more people's trust they'll lose.

According to some sources, we are getting it in mid october. For GSM galaxy x's only.

you do realize thats only about a week away right? There is absolutely no way that we will see 2.2 in a week, 2 weeks, 3 weeks, fuk if ever.
If I could sell this I would so get a g2. Unfortunantly with the 2 for 1 sale tmobile is having, theres like 50 brand new in box Vibrants going for 300 so no way I can sell this thing at the moment....
O well, stuck I guess, but I put money that 2.2 does not hit this month, or next, or ever.

after reading this post I will call it a stupid thread, and I hate to flame.
This is OLD info that doesnt really reflect any recent information. Since JUNE there have been alot of delays, and like I said in another thread, the galaxy s is still selling like crazy, so why would samsung put money into development when it doesnt have to? To please people who already gave them their money?

How about "to please their japanese customer base." Their Galaxy S phones just today hit the island of the rising sun today. They've sold 5 million of them thus far. They have no option but to upgrade us.
The froyo rom for the original Galaxy S is leaked alriady. Not to mention that Adobe has the captivate as one of the "coming soon supported devices" in their 10.1 supported mobile devices page.
ON the other hand, tmo might screw us over a little.

They don't have to give it to us. Its not gonna happen... Only way we get froyo is the devs here. I'm hoping eugene can make it happen. Screw samsung, tmobile and the cm team mainly WES...lol

Seriously as much as I'm pissed about not having froyo myself, it's not just us that got jerked around. If I remember HTC incredible users were being told froyo would be released for them in Julyish and they just received it in September. So if we were told September 23 which I believe wasn't specific to the vibrant then we should know it's not just us getting jerked around not just Samsung or t mobile.

Froyo November 11, 2011?! WTF

Ok, so read this and tell me what you think. It has to be some kind of conversion from another language cause parts of it dont make sense at all in the english language. Also, look at the picture, and tell me what is wrong in it (or right?). Either way, some of this pisses me off.

I think it'd be even less likely for Samsung to put out such a date over a year in advance, despite everything they've been saying about a prompt release.
Whether or not it will be the 11th (I hope so), it will not be 11-11-11. I mean come on, three 11s. Obviously a mistake.

Even the rollout DID begin on the 11th, we wont see it on the Epic for a while after that most likely.
I hope I am wrong.

Galaxy twitter has been complete wrong several times, specifically they have promised dates that were in fact early.

I agree to permit questions regarding 2.2 but I think that we should all take a chill pill and let it be.
By past experience we will get he upgrade and then wish we never had it because of the bugs it will have at the start, so let's just save our time with the speculations.

Gingerbread update available

According to gizmocrunch.com, Gingerbread is now "officially" available to a few select Atrix owners. It is available on an invitation-only basis at the moment. Verizon and Motorola have fired out emails to Motorola Atrix 4G owners advising that the Android 2.3 Gingerbread update is available to the first 1,000 applicants who respond to them.

Doesn't matter. Initial surveys do not close until July 18th, then there is a SOAK survey, then there is selection. It will be a week before the first 1000 get into SOAK.

You need to read the Moto forums. Mark, Moto forum manager, said a couple of weeks back that there will be a selection this time. If you have not been contributing on the Moto forums, you don't get in. That's what came directly from him in the GB thread! They want people who will actually provide feedback this time.

And again, will be a next update(like in the past with 1.8.3), to fix their bugs?

And ken I think stopped updating to beta#4 his leaked 2.3.4 cuz it doesn't have a lot of future.
Its crazy to have a good battery life only when you undervolt the cpu's when phone is idle.

KP said in the irc he is working on something that should be ready in a week or so.

Do you feel it? Can Ouryou smell it?

Our ICS should roll out very soon as promised in official motorola atrix forum 4-5 months ago..
My question is.. Any doubts about their announcement? Do you really believe
it will be as they said? they said once "between juny to september"
It's about time now to test their true word.. else, many of us will get dissapointed.. and in my opinion it could be the
end of our lovely Atrix. any opinions? Has any body tried to contact motorola for questions?
Btw sorry for my english.

Official release might be delayer a bit, but i guess with might be seeing a leak by mid September. If we are lucky, we might get it on early September.

Not another thread like this.

I dunno but I am getting kind of tired of waiting...thinking of upgrading to the Sony Xperia Ion. My atrix is getting digitizer problems worse and more often...and the fact that it can't properly play h.264 video(without re-encoding most of the things I download) has been a bane on my Atrix since the day I found out about it. I don't think ICS will add much value to my Atrix anymore anyways.

Please no. Make them stop mommy.

You realize that you are asking a question that requires a crystal ball to answer?
Nobody knows where Motorola is with the ICS release and until it happens we will not know for sure. Announcements and dead lines released by Motorola are not binding, they already promised upgrades for other phones that never materialized. There is no way to force them to release an upgrade for Atrix and hold them accountable for any promises they made to us.
Just be patient and wait.

Settle down.
