No OTA Yet?

Make sure you are provisioned correctly from T-Mo. I had to change from standard Android to myTouch, don't ask why, but it did work for me.

How would you go about this?

You have to call them and have them do it.

I was told everything was provisioned properly...they made me do a factory reset...and gave me the wait 7 day speech and it should come. I don't have a lot of hope

There used to be a way to "check for updates" on my old G1, but I haven't seen this on my MT4G yet. Does anyone know where it is on this phone? Or if there is an option similar? I thought this was something standard on Android and I have looked through all the settings (I think).

Not sure if this is what you are talking about or not....(didn't work for me)

# Go to the homescreen.
# Tap on Dialer - to open the dialer screen.
# From the dialer type *#*#checkin#*#* (that is *#*#2432546#*#*)
# If the ?checkin' is successful, the device will display "checkin result success"
Note: Checkin results may take up to 12 hours to display
# Return to the homescreen.
# Press the Menu key.
# Select Settings.
# Scroll down, and select About phone.
# Select System updates.
# If an update is available, you should see the update downloading.When the download is complete, you will be prompted to Install (now or later)

I received my OTA update at Old Country Buffet tonight. It took about 5 minutes to install. It showed up in the notification window and said its new firmware. Can I ask? What exactly does this new firmware do?

The big feature is wifi calling. If you're on wifi and enable it all calls will go through wifi. The other bonus is that battery life goes through the roof when on wifi with wifi calling enabled.

The next big thing is that the OTA is rootable, if those things matter to you.

Before the update I had wifi calling and it worked fine. Is that it? I would hope it would boost system performance?
