As per BGR: Froyo to be released end of July, beginning of August....

As a former storm 1&2 user interface can say my desire for an update has gone from being a requirement to possibly fixed and screwed up phone to curiosity on how they can make this phone even better than it already is. I can't wait for the next step forward because it will be a leap ahead instead of a step back.

I definitely do not have a bag/bowl of candy.

It's a jar. And it's full of reeces pieces.

Who wants to get in my van?

rofl oh noes!

Will this update also bring a signal strength fix and battery charge fix?

 

[Qazme]

Battery charge seems to be a hardware issue, nobody is for sure. There is no signal strength issue I'm aware of except for the display of bars. That's all bound on the algorithm they use to figure what bars to show. And in the end affects nothing on the phone. Also the phone goes over to 1x while in sleep mode(screen off) so the bars change when you actually start to use it. So no I don't believe there will be any fix for those in this update, and you probably will never see them I believe.

There are always ways to make the phone run more efficiently with software updates. We have seen it with the iPhone numerous times over the past couple years. I am sure HTC can make the phone sip a bit less juice

No, there hasn't been any pushed updates, yet.

It'll come; patience is part of Android

However, I'd be expecting it very soon. Maybe this week.

I have had a feeling that we would see it soon, but all the smoke has gone away and I dont see any signs it is coming. You have any of that awesome "inside information"?

Sorry, but I got a kidney stone, so i am looking for something good to make me forget it.

Does Froyo have an app that would zap a kidney stone?

Well, it isn't /new/, but it is interesting in case you haven't seen it: Twitter / Verizon Wireless: Told ya RT @BGR HTC DRO ... Basically, it's the Verizon Tech Support twitter employees confirming what BGR posted. So it is coming.

As for the kidney stones... DROID DOES. Maybe.

Not Froyo exclusive, but maybe if you get one of the "Dog Whistle" apps from the market, plug your phone into a loud enough stereo system, blast a high enough frequency, and stand with your kidney area against the speakers, maybe you could pulverize them...

I am going to try this now. If you have ever had a kidney stone, you would know it is worth trying!

Just remember... I am not a certified Doctor, just the resident lunatic... These claims have not been verified by the FDA, Android Central, Google or the developer of the Dog Whistle app...

I feel your pain. I had one about 4 months ago. Hang in there Dude.

From OTA updates to kidney stones, this is why Android rocks.



(punny, no?)

Stone.... rock..... dude that was swift, froyo on incredible swift!

If it helps, I'm going through something similar. Both OTA waiting and side pain

Percocets are holding me together too. Enjoy.

I have a broken kneecap and the only cure is froyo. I'm positive of that
