Well it seems I'm not the only one. I don't have the tIME to call right now, but like others I'm getting anxious.

My call quality OS spotty at best and is like to see what the radio update does for that of anything. Plus the WiFi calling would be cool.

Waiting waiting waiting.......
[G2 and Desire Z General] gteye:
As far as I know doing it manually is identical to waiting for the OTA.
[G2 and Desire Z General] tankmorph:
Just update manually. There's nothing magical about getting the OTA pushed to you compared to doing it youself. Its like picking up a pizza yourself instead of waiting for the delivery guy. You're still getting the same pizza.

Ok, now I'm hungry for pizza.

Im in cali and was waiting for the OTA update...with no luck. so decided to update manually. Easy and fast. do it yourself instead of waiting.
[G2 and Desire Z General] pdxrealtor:
Just talked with TMO and they said updates are going out until 3 am this morning EST/12 am PST and if I don't receive it by then to call back and they'll start a ticket.

TMO doesn't send out the updates it's HTC/Google--- according to the TMO rep.
[G2 and Desire Z General] shivers316:
Guys, it's really the same thing as the ota if you do it manually. I've even updated phones manually in the past and then received the next ota with no problem.
[G2 and Desire Z General] TheManCityLife:
How can I go about updated it manually?

Its 3:40 in Atlanta and I still do not have my update. In fact my phone completely reset earlier today and deleted all of my things.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Jorsher:
Nobody cares about the status of everyone's OTA. I got mine on the first day, but when I was using a G1 it would usually take a week or two.

"Checking in" won't help you get it sooner. Calling T-Mobile won't help you get it sooner. Complaining about it online won't help you get it sooner.

You have two options:

1. Wait.

2. Install it manually.

That's it.
[G2 and Desire Z General] pdxrealtor:
I started this thread and it appears some people do care. Why waist your time and msg board space with useless comments?
[G2 and Desire Z General] Jorsher:
Why would you "waist" your time calling T-Mobile or doing a check-in?

My only point is, since the beginning of Android time, you've had the same options for getting the update as you do now - wait or install manually. The system isn't going to forget to update your phone. What are you expecting to hear?
[G2 and Desire Z General] pao_revolt:
I havnt got mine yet also, los angeles ca
[G2 and Desire Z General] roadrunnerx7:
i just got mine this morning.. but i have a mission for one of you guys!

for those that havent recieved it, try this:

download the OTA from xda. put it on the root of your sdcard and rename it "update"

then restart the phone. do a check in. then go to the system updates in the about phone. is the ota there?

i honestly dont know if i forced the ota or if it just happened to come at the exact same time that i decided to download it from the internet. if its what i think it is then maybe all you gotta do is download the file restart your phone then update as if it was a normal ota. i really dont know, but its worth a try

and if it doesnt work, then i guess it was just a coincedence with me and you guys just have to wait lol

You should refer to the developer of the application,because the change requir the source code of the app.

WTH is going on!? The last 2 weeks Market has been flaky at best. I click to update/download something and it just hangs. Come back to it hours later and the program I clicked on 3 hours ago is finally installed.

I'm on stock, rooted with 1 click. Anyone else seeing this problem?
[Epic 4G General] Quicksand Jesus:
I posed this earlier in IRC. what I do is sign in and out of Google Talk. Seems to clear it up.

Google talk is pre-installed on your phone. The app is called talk.
[Epic 4G General] blazinazn:
I can sign out of Google talk but I can sign back in. I reboot the phone and still have the same issue. I've been having this issue for the past week so something makes me thing it's the market/sprint. :mad:
[Epic 4G General] kast107:
Ok, to me, you just confirmed that it's a Sprint/Google connection issue. A few people in the Evo forum are having the same problems. Some people weren't even rooted and were having the same problems.

It seems to affect all google apps including Market, Gtalk, Gmail, etc. The apps seem to hang or give me a server error. My problems just started last night and I too am rooted. Luckily, like I said before, it seems to affect rooted and unrooted users.

I called up Sprint and they wanted me to do a hard reset (of course), but I refuse to since these seem like bigger problems, and they probably can't be solved on the phone level, but rather on the network level.

Hopefully they can find the problem soon!
[Epic 4G General] Quicksand Jesus:
Great, now I can't login to talk or use the market.

I rebooted a couple times and it worked for a couple mins, then stopped again. I'm gonna go with this is a Google problem, doesn't work when I use wifi either.

Fix for Wifi issues with Samsung Epic

So ever since I rooted my phone I've had issues with wifi for use with anything such as the market, web browser, sms, you name it.

Found that there is a file that is easily corruptible and can easily be fixed thankfully with a free app from the market called Android Mate.

You'll have to have your phone rooted and then navigate to the phones base directory then go here: /data/wifi/ and delete this file: bcm_supp.conf

Android Mate seems to have issues with navigating the base folder (root directory) so for me I went to the data folder and had to manually type in /wifi and it pulled up the bcm_Supp.comf file and I deleted it and rebooted my phone and presto no more issues.

Hope this helps a few people :)
[Epic 4G General] jerbeck24:
I am unrooted and am having the exact same problem. Both with market and gmail. I can't even get emails half the time or hardly ever even see the apps I've downloaded in market! Very frustrating!
[Epic 4G General] anthromatt:
Someone at Howard Forums reported they can't even get to sites like google.com and Gmail from their laptop when connected to the internet via their Sprint data card.

[Epic 4G General] Geekybiker:
When I have my epic plugged into my car via the head phone jack for playing mp3 the bluetooth mic on my hands free kit stops working. I'm guessing its giving priority to the plug in mic since something is plugged in. any way to change this? I want bluetooth to take priority.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xculliber:
Hi all,

I have a vibrant that will get into recovery but I can't seem to find any flashing info that does not include ODIN, I have no idea what this guy is as I my native device is a Nexus One and ADB seems to work just fine.

I flashed via clockwork the wifi calling libs and kernel. Phone boots, shows tha vibrant and samsung dialogue, makes the annoying t-mobile boot sound but remains on black screen with the buttons seeming to respond to touch by going off.

Any help will be appreciated.
[Vibrant General] keenerb:
Ok, so stock Vibrant "lag". What does this mean, precisely? I'm a rooted but otherwise stock JI6, and I don't see any lag anywhere on the phone.

If I were to be experiencing this lag, what would it look like?
[Vibrant General] kolyan:
Get Xscope V5 (V6 is buggy) browser for free x-labs.net and use it for a day or two. Notice how slow it loads webpages sometimes. Or try Miui Browser (not in market) GUI lags a little too
[Vibrant General] Raistline:
The LAG that most people are talking about is when you switch windows or open a new app. Sometimes when doing this, the phone will seem to freeze for a moment before going to the new app or page.

With Voodoo lagfix, I have not seen this happen once, where with stock it happened all the time.

If you have rooted your phone and gone down the mod rabbit hole, lagfix is well worth it.
[Vibrant General] heygrl:
I installed a LagFix recently like I did months ago and saw no huge change in performance (barely any change really) This "lag" problem is about as overblown as it could be. Firefox runs as smoothly as it can (it's not that smooth, beta and needs 40MB of ram on my phone. JFD firmware was did have some lag issues though that we're a problem. Some serious lag was solved by a factory reset or by reloading the OS. The lagfix isn't worth the reduced app space or lesser reliability. If you have no problems with how your phone is running, don't bother with any hacks like that.

Some people randomly got major lag when updating from JFD to JI6. A data wipe solves it.. and they couldn't be happier.
[Vibrant General] MilkPudding:
The 'lag' that you see people complaining about does not happen on all phones, all the time.

And I need to remind you to be careful about installing any lagfix. Read up on what it does and how it may affect your phone BEFORE installing it.
[Vibrant General] sahil04:
Agreed, you might think the phone is fast now but when you install the lag fix you'll definately notice a difference.

It amazed me when I had to go back to stock (after soft bricking my phone) and I had to install rom manager from the market while everything was stock and it was crazy how slow it was.
[Vibrant General] N8ter:
Gonma take our two vibrants to tmo and use my camcorder to rexord us using different phones after fresh reboots soon to shut up idiots like u.

The lag issue is far from overblown.
[Vibrant General] heygrl:
N8ter is a troll, just read their posts. Where did I say "fresh reboot"? Nowhere!
[Vibrant General] Gigamaster89:
Am interested in seeing said video.
[Vibrant General] heygrl:
Here is a video I took a while back. I'd be interested in seeing the lag. I know someone with a DROID X, behavior is exactly the same when opening apps. It was the same when I installed the lag fix.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jl1Q2qlRNwE
[Vibrant General] knurdle:
I'm on stock JI6, non-rooted.

I think what I'm experiencing is considered lag.

It doesn't happen all the time but it is annoying when it does.

Sometimes it'll take 10 seconds for an app to launch.

It's especially bad if I have more than a couple of apps going at the same time.

Some of this can be worked around, keeping as few apps going as possible. I don't use a task killer, I just back out of apps instead of switching home and keeping the app in memory.

There are certain apps where it seems to be worse in.

The Facebook app is horrible to the point where I don't use it but I'm not sure if that's the app or the phone. I can't scroll a page without the phone locking up for 3-4 seconds. Clicking on anything takes about 3-5 seconds for it to register.

I'm pretty disappointed in Samsung in general with their software. The hardware is great, the software just sucks.

One of these days I'll get around to installing another ROM.
[Vibrant General] heygrl:
You obviously have something else going on here.. Facebook runs with no problems on my phone. If you flash another rom everything will be wiped, just the same as what I said above. The FB app taking 10 seconds to load and locking up the phone is NOT normal behavior.
[Vibrant General] knurdle:
I think you're right. It doesn't make sense that facebook would be so bad.

Everything else is pretty much okay.

I think I'm going to try one of the other ROMs. Just need to find some time.

Also, I'm dreading having to go through the whole process of reinstalling and reconfiguring everything. I might have to try titanium backup so that I don't have to do that.
[Windows Phone 7 General] d0ugie:
So a bunch of my blog bros got themselves a WP7 device and have discovered that when they hit reply on an email that was sent through our group address, a listserv-like thing, it doesn't reply to the listserv address but to the original sender so the response doesn't go to everyone unless they re-address each reply.

Any way around that?
[Windows Phone 7 General] d0ugie:
alternatively a recommendation for another email client would be appreciated...
[Windows Phone 7 General] JEEtoP:
It sounds like maybe the group software you're using isn't presenting the addresses as you want it to, i.e. not setting the reply-to address as the group address.

I've just tested it on our Exchange system sending as a distribution group and had no issues replying to the group.
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
Yep. It's not setting the reply-to address.
[Vibrant General] sunnyp43:
I am trying to root my samsung galaxy s and tried for 3 hours yesterday until I decided it was not going to happen. First, I'm on android 2.1 and used two ways to attempt to root it.

The first way I tried it was by downloading the update.zip file and connecting my phone and placing it into my internal memory drive (I put it in the folder with 12gb). Then I rebooted my phone into recovery mode and clicked reinstall packages. But an error came up saying something like it can't find the update.zip file. I did this like 5 different times renaming the file and putting it in different folders but nothing worked.

The second way I tried was the one click method. I downloaded the one click app and followed all the directions but once I'm in the reboot mode it again said can't find the update file

If anyone can help me I would really appreciate it. Thanks.
[Vibrant General] jmattp:
If you're using Windows, make sure "hide extensions for known file types" is unchecked in Control Panel. It could be that the file is named, "update.zip.zip"

Also, it has to be in the root directory. Meaning, not in a folder. Just drag it to the SD Card.
[Vibrant General] sunnyp43:
Idk if this is the root directory but this is what I do. Ill plug my phone in the computer and then ill have two drives show up. One is my phone and the other is my memory card. I put it in my phone not in a specific folder inside the internal memory.

If thats not the right place can you give me step by step directions to where I should be putting the file.

Thanks
[Vibrant General] C-4Nati:
When you download the update.zip file its original name is not update.zip, i forget what its originally called but you HAVE to change it to update.zip for it to work, thats the only reason i can think of why it couldn't find the file.
[Vibrant General] sunnyp43:
Ok so after I hide the extension like the 2nd comment said I have to rename it to update or update.zip? If I rename it to update it would still be update.zip but the zip part is hidden bc.of the settings right?

Thanks guys
[Vibrant General] jmattp:
If you uncheck "hide extensions for known file types" then it will show extensions (or, unhide them, if you will).

Then you'll be able to see the full filename. It should be: update.zip

...no more, no less.
[Vibrant General] sunnyp43:
Ok guys, I did everything you guys told me to do. This is the error I get now,

E: Error in /sdcard/update.zip

(Status 7)

Installation aborted.

I don't know if I'm putting them in the wrong folder or what, but I don't know why I keep getting this error.
[Vibrant General] s15274n:
Have you followed this guide?

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=7150299&postcount=1

It should not be in a folder, just the root of your internal.

I'm using a German X10i and we're yet to receive the 2.1 update. Just want a heads up if there were any problems restoring your old SMS/MMS when you update from 1.6 to 2.1? Is the Backup Restore app, or the Google sync/SE sync reliable enough to do the job for you?

[HD7 General] MantisBoy:
I have my htc hd7 for 4 days now and i had no problem with the phone so far except a few hours back, when i left my wifi on (i usually turn it off after using) while i continued with my work on my computer. Suddenly the phone vibrated and restarted itself in front of me, i picked up the phone and felt that the lower back of the phone was quite hot.. Turning off the wifi seems to have allowed the phone to cool and no random restarts thereafter.. Anyone encountered the same?

No problem here either. Use wifi as soon as I get it in range.
[HD7 General] bradecrain:
Mine does this to. It gets super hot at the bottom especially when wifi is on. Im guess that is where the CPU is or the WiFi chipset. About time to exchange.
[HD7 General] alabij:
I noticed this twice. I plugged it to an ac outlet and it began to sync with Zune on PC. I was adding a bunch of new playlists and after a while I caught it restarting. At first i was excited; i thought T-Mobile had sent out an update or something. picked up the phone to embrace the new goodies and then felt the warmth of the phone.

I turn off wifi now to prevent Zune sync unless I need it.
