No OTA yet...

**TaeKwonDonkey** · 07-01-2010, 01:22 AM

Still waiting for the official FRF85B OTA on T-Mobile in Washington D.C.
I really don't want to manually update because I've already read some horror stories of it not working out or malfunctioning and I don't want to take any chances.

**KrispyKrink** · 07-01-2010, 02:05 AM

Give it time. Remember, the 2.1-update1 took about a week to get sent out to the majority of units.

**canonfaz** · 07-01-2010, 09:08 AM

I manually updated. It ran slow for 1 day. Now it is blazing.

**aviduser** · 07-01-2010, 09:28 AM

I never did get the OTA. I got tired of waiting and ran the manual install.

The update ran slowly at first, but now it is awesome.

I have a few complaints about some of the stock apps (email, contacts and calendar), but the performance is great overall.

The only horror stories are from those who were rooted or from those who were doing it incorrectly (such as naming the file update.zip.zip due to them not realizing that Windows hides known file extensions by default). If you do it correctly, it is extremely simple and the process the phone goes through for installation is exactly what the OTA will do for you anyways.

Still waiting too... T-mobile Baltimore

I cannot even find the manual update for unmodified Nexus ERE27... I find only incremental ones.

I still want to do this OTA, instead of sideloading, just to see it work. I've side loaded other android devices, so the thrill of that has passed.

But how many N1s are out there anyway that they have to push this so slowly?

Is there any reason to keep doing checkin ? And is there any reason to believe "check for new update" actually does anything other than look for the zip on the SD card?

Thanks Ock. I took the jump. Scary and took sometimes after reboot to get back to normal, few things were hanging for a while, but seems normal now.

Tried it twice and always gets stuck on the second reboot, and gets stuck on static N1 logo, I know I have the correct version yet it fails, tried the original leak and twice with the official version, not really sure anymore what it could be

This is exactly what I mean. If that happened to me, I'd probably pee in my pants. I'm not gonna do any side loading/flashing/rooting until theres a Nexus Two in my hands

Also I've been running a checkin (*#*#2432546#*#*) everyday with no luck. It doesn't even find if I have any apps that need updating.

icebike, normally I'd be right there with ya calling bluff (as many have seen

) but this time, FRF91 is quite real. Found this over at xda...

**icebike** · 07-01-2010, 05:13 PM

I saw it there too.
I was mostly just pulling his chain due to the huge dustup in the forum in past days.

haha. well in that case...........

kC_, no, you didn't get an OTA to FRF91. But nice try trying to be the new "cool kid". I want full video proof, a copy of logcat, a blood sample, and your next child.

yes for windows users all you have to do is change the downloaded zip file to "update" and not "update.zip"...i was trying to change it to "update.zip" and I kept getting the error message until i simply named it "update" and all was right in the world

**melwan** · 07-01-2010, 06:43 PM

I installed 85B manually cause the OTA seemed to take 4ever. Just ran a checkin and it prompted me with the new 91 update.

@gchild00 That's why I always set it to show extensions. It makes life easier lol

I keep doing checkin but haven't gotten OTA yet. I'm gonna wait for OTA just for the hell of it. Lol

And yeah, I agree on the file extensions. As a technician and sysadmin for a Windows environment, I never keep extensions hidden (or hidden/system files).

**johnchen3** · 07-01-2010, 08:35 PM

Anyone on at&t get the 2.2 update yet?

**Stephman** · 07-01-2010, 08:53 PM

Will the OTA show up on an AT&T N1 that's connected via WiFi and NO SIM card installed?

My SIM is in another phone right now while I wait for a microSIM adaptor.

Thanks

You NEED the SIM to get the OTA. Some even say you need to disable Wifi, but not too sure about that.

Don't know the validity of your statement but I'm not turning my Wifi back on until I get the OTA update lol

Thanks for the info

**superflush** · 07-02-2010, 02:02 AM

I'm pretty sure having the SIM card in is a good idea.
I just got my FroYo update after checking in. I had tried previously, but it didn't work until just now.
It is build FRF91.
