Just got the 2.0.1 Update OTA

[dotheweb]

Just got the message when I unlocked my phone that the 2.0.1 update is available. Has anyone else seen this?

Am rebooting now, will post more when its done.

EDIT:
Camera indoor shots are still not that good, phone all in all is still speedy. Still have to do the annoying 'Mount USB' thing too.

The update was simply there, i did not notice the phone downloading a file or anything like that. I went to use the phone and it asked if I wanted to update.

After a day of running the 2.0.1, I must say that the update has made this phone even sweeter. Coming from a Storm 1, this is way beyond.

Lock screen is different. The circular wheel is gone.
Camera is WAY faster at taking pictures. Not sure if the quality of indoor shots is better, but seems to have better focus.

When you say the circular wheel is gone do you mean you just push the button and your phone is unlocked?

 

[CavemanOOGA]

Man! No love here yet...


I want my OTA...

no... it looks like two little tabs on each side which you slide to the middle

Try K-9 Mail. It's great, and free. Attachments no problem.

I think he meant that big red didn't send an email for the update.

Hopefully this one will come out soon. In VA and I am wondering if they are rolling it out by region. Crossing my fingers to get it soon.

 

[kamileon]

My guess is VZW will roll out the update the same way they did with the Storm update, by phone number. I dont remember how they did it but I think it went by the last number in your phone number.

Oh and here's a pic of the new lock screen(if anyone is interested that is)

 

[CavemanOOGA]

Hm, that's pretty interesting.

Quick question, is the digital clock a part of the lock screen now, or is that a widget?

EDIT: Nevermind, answered my question. LOL.

If they are doing it by mobile number do you think I'll be the last to get it? My last digit is 9
