Does anyone know if you will be able to upgrade over wifi only? I am not activated, ordered a Note 2 and want to decide if it would be worth it to send the Note 2 back and continue using the Tbolt now that we finally have ICS.

I don't know for sure, but in the past, I believe updates were available also at the HTC site, and one could do a manual update. (hopefully, I am remembering correctly...am I thinking of an earlier phone I had?) If true this time, then I can't imagine why one could not update via wifi.

Of course I can't get a 4G signal the day I want to download a 400MB file...

You can get updates over Wi-Fi (Verizon's instructions mention it here: Software Update: Thunderbolt™by HTC - Coming Soon! | Verizon Wireless). But I believe the phone needs an active SIM card to do so (to authenticate to either Verizon or HTC's system). As to the Note 2, IMO you'd be crazy to send it back. It's hands down a much better phone than the Thunderbolt in just hardware alone, not to mention it has Jelly Bean. No contest, game over man, game over!

When gingerbread came out, there were at least a hundred posts in this amount of time, many of them worried that the update server was overloaded and complaining about it not rolling out fast enough.

Do we really have so few thunderbolt users left?

Forgot to turn 4G on before updating; this is going to be a long wait.

LOL I remember those days. It was fast and furious keeping up with all the threads and posts. Good times! But yah, I'd venture a guess that most have moved on. It's been almost two years since its release (around middle of March 2011).

Of course, back then, we also had a prerelease RUU and many people reporting issues beforehand.

Seriously? I think the Note 2 is just a little (just a tad) more up to date than the T-Bolt...

One of 2 ways. Hold down the power button and the down volume button or hold down the power button and hit the home button.
