Nothing wrong with your phones, make sure you are on MDL, and have official status, and try moving the date up 1-2 days, it will eventually hit, I assure you. Att wants everyone on MF3..hehe

The date on my Vibrant kit box is 7/4/10 and I have Not received the OTA yet.
If you have please posts your box date and your serial # (is you know where it is?).
Would be fun counting up to your OTA release.
Secular
Does that really matter???
I am not trying to a butt or anything but I thought they were send out randomly.
No one knows for sure.
Just 3 or 4 post will deny or confirm.
Yeah pretty sure it's random still haven't gotten my ota yet and my date is 6/27/10
Your box date has nothing to do with when you will be getting updates.

I got mine before launch n didn't get the update. I know 3 ppl that got it yesterday n all 3 bought months after I did and at different tines. It does not go by date.
Date on mine is 7/10/2010 and I got the update yesterday, 10/8/2010. So the whole date thing is pretty irrelevant.
It would be better if you started looking by phone number or IMEI numbers.
I mean duh, all algorythms are numerical.....look for a significant number.
Dumb ass kids.
Just go and flash the official JI6 OTA with Odin, that is what I did, its the same as the T-mobile OTA.

09/03/2010 box date here with no OTA update yet. Agreed that there is probably some number based algorithm used to push the updates, but the box date is certainly not it. I also doubt it is really random over a large base such as their nationwide subscribers; among a smaller base, maybe.
How do they determine what vibrants get it at what time? Because my girl friend and I both have vibrants and we both bought it at the same exact time and she got the new update and I didn't. Both if or phones are completely stock with no root or anything.
Also with this update will it change the gps settings that I changed a while ago that was posted I this site that was suppose to make the gps better?

We have no idea how they determine the order that people receive updates.
Yes it will update the gps. So far mine is much better.
They do it in order of 31337ness... she's winning.
-bZj
They push it according to unfaithfulness, so you better check on her
No there is no way to to know when you are getting it, but if you are so anxious about getting it you can flash it thru ODIN, no rooting required.
Ok I called cust service for t-mobile, argued about not getting update. Come to find out they use the IMIE to send out the update. They had the one for My Cliq XT and I had to give them My IMIE for this VIBRANT. He did tell me that when they update there systems tonight I should be good to go. Will update you all.

You argued about not getting an update that's rolling out Oct 7-31? That's great. Keep wasting resources

I always thought the IMIE was recorded before hand. I bought my vibrant without a contract and I do not have a data plan, also, as far as tmobile is concerned, i may still be using a sidekick.
would this affect my update status.
one more thing, i dont have a data plan, but im almost always on wifi.
CAN I STILL GET THE UPDATE?
My replacement Vibrant is supposed to arrive tomorrow. I'll make sure to call them so that they can update my IMEI, if this is true.
And it is IMEI, not IMIE.
I almost didn't know what the threat title was referring to.
Just ODIN flash the update, haha come on people.

Seriously a little sick of people starting posts worried about if they will get the ota update or if it will brick their phone... the update is posted on the site and can be flashed through Odin. Especially for those who have already been concerned about bricking easy enough flash back to stock and then flash update.

T-Mo's systems generally update the IMEI automatically, but there is more than system that reads that info - The billing system is one which doesn't automatically update, but really matter for anything. I was a TMo rep and I did see our other tools be incorrect, but this was very rare - I can only remember 3-4 times in the many years I was with the company, and usually this was just because there wasn't enough time for the system to update. This takes 24-48 hours.
Bottom line: you will still get the update and the op would have too if he had waited, because the rep more than likely just checked the billing system IMEI info.
Lorddart,
Unless you own this forum we will post and say what we want. Stop.your winning and move on negative one. Ifno is invo read it or
Leave it. move on lawndart find a new yard.
By the way it is day.2 and no.update.

don't worry too much b1wyatt. t-mo's doing this update in staggered waves. it's one of those things where you'll get it when you get it. i know ppl have already mentioned ODIN but there's Kies mini for the Vibrant as well. it seems sure fire if you've got a 32 bit OS (not so sure for those on x64 systems as some have complained that Kies mini won't see their phones ). i'm still kinda debating whether to use ODIN or Kies mini on my bf's phone for the update (i think Kies is safer).
just checked for updates on my fascinate as part of my weekly routine, but it started downloading and said download failure - network error. any help. im anxiously waiting a working gps galaxy s device before i spend the money on the car mount. plese help or any ideas just let me know.
Got the same thing last night at about 2am. Now it says there are no available updates. Oh well
every time ok check for updates it seems to check for a minute or so. then it stops and I get no answer...is this normal?

hey guys turns out after i failed update about 30 times i tried some tweaking and erased the radio file. when i spoke to verizon about the problems and to get a replacement phone the rep told me the update was for 2.2 and that they been waiting for it to come out. i dont know how true this is cuz i havent seen the fireworks yet online about the update, but ill find out today when i get the replacement device.
They have been telling people for months that 2.2 was out and you will receive a notification on your phone. I was told that when I bought mine on launch day. Its commonly referred to as bull Ishmael.

I had a similar problem. My phone downloaded it but failed the install. I called Verizon and they said this is a common problem. I am getting a new (Not refurb) shipped to me within a week. No harm no foul. I'd call Verizon.
My phone failed about 10 times to get DI01, and then one time it just worked. I recommend being stationary in an area with a few bars of 3G. Even then, it's a crapshoot. It doesn't mean your phone is defective or in need of replacement.
I consider myself lucky to have gotten a phone that has so far been free of the most of the problems that have plagued many of the galaxy s phones. Gps was fantastic on my phone until I flashed super clean v4... For some reason I often, though not always, had problems with gps not locking on. Location has always been spot on right from the start. Now with dj05 the gps issue has also been non existent.
The same was true when di01 came out. The OTA update was as smooth as could be. I was not rooted at that time.

Some of us can't install though and according to the Verizon tech I called it's certain MEID numbers so it's still not a bad idea to call I would say.
When I got DI01 it got partway through downloading a zillion times before finally working.
Ive flashed back to my factory images a few times after messing around (they were pre DI01...I keep forgetting to make current ones)
Every time I update it sucks and takes 5 to 10 tries
I think the servers are just teh suck.
Do you have to be stock in order to get the update? Every time I try to check for an update I get an FC. I'm currently running Stupidfast 1.1.23 Kernel & JT's Super Clean ROM. Also, is this update worth getting now or shall I just wait?
PRL, Profile, and Firmware all produce an unknown error when clicking update. Called sprint. We reset the phone 3 or 4 times. Running EB13 root CWM2.5 and tried reflashing. They want sprint to reflash the phone back to 2.1 PLEASE HELP!
Google's update servers are currently down in preparation for the OTA. A lot of people are having this issue right now.

Everyone is having error. Probably getting ready for new update tonight.
TL;DR - Try again tomorrow
The servers are getting ready for the new update that comes out tonight and will be available to everyone by March 24th. If you look around the forums, you will see people talking about the newest update: EC05.
I thought I was the only one, but haven't had no time to look around see the forums. I been working for a good part of the day, and had no time to investigate. Thanks everyone for replying.
Yeah this started happening to my phone the other day. I had to take it in to Sprint and they are going to replace it with another one. (Refurb). I tried to argue with them and have exchange with a brand new one but they wouldnt go for it. Does anyone know if flashing the new EC05 will fix this?? I have flashed so many ROMs and nothing worked. If anyone has a fix please chime in. I am very curious to know if this is fixable. If not its cool cuz Im getting a replacement tomorrow.
From what I read on another post, everyone has the same issues. It is Sprint. I am not sure why they would block certain phones from getting a prl or profile update. It makes no sense to me. Seems they would have better IT management plan than this. Other phones like the EVO have already received an prl update 60677. I have heard of some EPIC's never receiving this issue, and I have read some had the issues then disappear, and some re-appear. Most have the same issues as us.

There's a big froyo update for the samsung epic 4g rolling out between tonight and th 24th, so the update servers have been unavailabe while they prepare... I have no proof of this, but it seems a logical deduction.

Hey people what ever you do don't take your phone to the store or repair center. Do you really want a piece of **** refurbished EPIC? I purchased my phone new 2 months ago, out right. There is no way in hell that one of those Sprint TECH's will take my phone to replace for theirs. They will do it. SIDE NOTE: I did try FIRMWARE, PROFILE, AND PRL this morning and they worked except no update. Better than yesterday. It is SPRINT with their update servers. Seems everyone will have to wait for someone to push a rom, the update online for us, or just wait for the OTA.
