From what I have read (haven't updated yet, I'm happy with my current setup) you have to reenable the USB mount settings

Settings>USB settings>Ask on connection

Not working on my mac either. So far seems like they've made the phone even more anti-mac than it was.

I'm just wondering how many others are not going to upgrade. I'm good on dj05, gps locks fast etc. Just reading here, the probs rerooting, stuff not working etc.

I just don't want to tell myself "why didn't you just stay where you were stupid idiot".

manually checking for update,get "service unavailable"

Starting to wonder if there's something wrong with my non-rooted, stock phone.
Every time I go into Settings>About Phone>System updates>Check New, It hangs for a second then the InnoPath ActiveCare three-choice screen comes up again. When I choose Status, it says "service unavailable".

My question is this: Is this because there is no update available on my phone or is it because I'm somehow not "hooked in" to whatever would be pushing it through. When I called the Verizon number listed on the Verizon DL09 PDF, the lady had no idea that there even WAS an update.... yeah. Any ideas? Thanks!

Try shutting off your wifi and use the 3G service to connect. I couldn't get the update until I did that. Downloading it now. Will post on how it works when done.

EDIT: Okay, update done. DL09 installed but not 2.2 Froyo. Still 2.1/update-1 Still no Flash. I feel pretty upset since I bought an Android phone specifically for Flash capability. I should have bought a Motorola phone instead of the Samsung. Feel like VZW lied to me, but what else is new?

You're not alone. No update available for me either. My gps seems to be working a little better the last month or so. The only real upside to this update that I can see, are the home, etc keys staying lit longer. Between reports of that failing after a bit, along with other reports of bugs, I'm not even sure I still want this update.

As I was checking for the update this morning for the 100th time in the past week, I happened to scroll down the "about phone" menu and something caught my eye: i500.04 V.DH12. Now, I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure this means that since I got my phone back in October that dl09 isn't the first update I've missed. Not sure why I didn't look at this before... just assumed I was running latest version prior dl09. (Did I mention I'm a noob?)

To make a long and boring story involving verizon tech support, verizon store location, and roughly 4 hrs...

Verizon is shipping me a new phone tomorrow. Just wanted to share this for anyone out there that might not have been able to get the update yet. There's a possibility that your just never going to get it (the conventional way). If you haven't got it by now, it's probably time to make that brutal, painful, awful, time consuming trip into your local Verizon store.

Yeah I'm done waiting on this 2.2 update. Samsung makes a good phone but the support is extremely poor. I am planning on ditching my Samsung Fascinate for the new HTC Thunderbolt - Feb 14 release date.

By the way my area has yet to receive the DL09 update.
