For those of us that missed the five minute window that we could have enrolled in the galaxy beta program, will we be able to flash through Odin the nougat beta for our S7?

As long as someone snags it. Supposed to be pushed tomorrow.

Pretty trivial for them to do that, correct?

How so? A lot of us on here want it but couldn't get into the beta.

If someone can grab us the Odin files we'd be able to flash it

Has anyone been lucky enough to grab the ODIN files?

Not sure it has been released yet.

Its rolling out, don't think I was picked.

How do you know if you were accepted into the beta program? If it allows you to register, does that mean you made it in?

No, there are a limited number of participants. I registered but did not receive an update yet and it MAY be only for the Edge right now. Going to keep checking but the ones I see updating are edges. You know if you were accepted if you can manually run the update from the phone.

I didn't register in time, and I would love to benefit from this. It's not posted here yet, but for what it's worth, I'm waiting for it to be posted here: http://www.theandroidsoul.com/download-galaxy-s7-firmware/

It's gone live. Downloading now. I believe if it accepts your registration, you're go to go.

I still can't dl after registering. Maybe rolled out in waves based on device ID?

Try going under setting/System Updates/Check for updaes. I just did that and currently downloading it now.

Be prepared.. It takes awhile to install.

Froyo Android 2.2 OTA updates begin rolling out

According to TechCrunch. But I can't post links on XDA apparently, so you will have to go to techcrunch DOT com/2010/05/22/android-froyo-nexus-one/
Sorry
there is a link posted in general section
wow, will go the stock rom and see if there any update... thx !

u from the us?
To be or not to be?
hmmm funny how all the links are to ONE guy... would be lovely if it was the case but the odds of ONLY one set of images and ONE guy having the OTA is slightly concerning.
If he did... "go get a lottery ticket"
If he did not then i'll sit back and refresh for 3 weeks
*#*#checkin#*#*
come on Froyo it's 27 degrees celcius in the UK a great time to drop by and chill us all out!
please can anyone confirmed it
helfone said:

nop, but its free to try
U where you from then? Please tell us if there's any update
In fact reading into it more...
A reporter for TechCrunch website states he has had the OTA?
I'l put 2 and 2 together here and i know this smells very odd now indeed. Do not get your hopes up, and really do smell a clever ploy to attract some users.
Who says it was OTA anyway? surely guys like TechCrunch would be given a sniff anyway weeks ago?
Just my 2 cents.
When running for example Cyanogen, I have two questions someone perhapse can answer:
1) Where do I find the option to check for an OTA-update, cant find it in About in Settings?
2) Will I haveto install a stock rom to be able to do the OTA?
Tnx,

Also from Israel (with CM5.0.6) but still no update I won't install it anyway, waiting for rooted version (so I can flash some Hebrew fonts)

Yes. It's an Update, not a replacement for your custom ROM. The only way you'll even get the option for an OTA update is if you flash your ROM back to stock and wait.
Or, wait for a few more hours for someone to release a rooted ROM, which is assuming the Techcrunch link is for real, which I doubt it is.

Ah that makes more sense, damn typos!
im sure an update.zip will appear within 24 hours of the first hundred confirmed OTA's so don't fret

New Soak Test

Has anyone here gotten this soak test e-mail? I am signed up for the Motorola Feedback Network but I have not received a soak test invite yet myself.

I am willing to bet this is advance calling fix. About 75% sure. If its lollipop good, but i highly doubt it.

From the soak test I have seen done in the past they send out them to people who confirmed their IEMI. Which I may be wrong about this is set for each phone individually. Meaning that soak test update only works for that said IEMI. I could be wrong. Just a guess.

I'm not sure what to make of you, yet.
You're rude, ***** at people, act like a knowitall, with a '14 join date, and almost 800 posts in less than 6 months.
Maybe it's the Droid Turbo forum, but I've not seen members of this community be as rude to people as you are. You're like an angry little troll.
Lighten up, breh. Post less. Be more informative. Be more helpful. I think the only reason I still give you any credit is that you must've done something nice once or twice to get your thanks meter up.
I haven't received an e-mail. Oh well. Not sure if anything has changed but I don't remember anyone having issues sideloading soak test updates when I had my Droid 4.

No root needed if a signed OTA file.
Not to install, but I think he's right, you need root to grab the OTA file out of the cache partition.

Grabbing from cache is unnecessary. Logcat the url. I did it last time.

They are saying the LG V20 will be the first to have 7.0, OUT OF THE BOX.
Correct me if I am wrong, but the N6 has had preview builds for a while... And at any moment there will be the official 7.0 release for the nexus 6.
Someone will have the zip soon im sure or even a rom

This will be Nexus 6 last OS update. We will not get android O officially. But we will get security updates till android O drops. so we get 1 more year with this phone.
OTA will roll out first. Hope someone captures it for us. Images to follow on google site in a day or 2 along with source.
agree. and i might get the v20 for its reputation of lg for being expensive... hmmm..

Certainly 6.0.1 as stated on the Factory Image web page. ( 6.0.1 (MOB30W) ) It won't be long though.
