just realised about unlocking it, you should root and flash ur phone with a new custom ROM, hold the down button and power button down when phone is off, mess around with the settings.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TyFactor:
I've got a stock that hasn't received notification or started to download the 1st OTA update. Can I help out in any way with grabbing the OTA file? I know some people try to logcat when the device has already downloaded it but it hasn't been installed.

My device hasn't downloaded anything yet and I'd be happy to parse out any log information if I can get some directions on how.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unremarked:
Yeah. I had been running aLogcat since i picked up my replacement and having it save to the SD card every fifteen minutes and still managed to miss the update, but I think I figured out why.

I was turning on/off my phone alot, and every time start aLogcat the first save will be 15min from that point. So when the update downloaded to my phone, I installed it before that 15min was up. So what I'd recommend you do is go ahead and install aLogcat and have it save like I was. BUT before you install the update, manually save the log.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TyFactor:
Ahh, good catch - okay, I'll be sure to snap a log manually.

Also to double check my settings:

Level: Verbose

Format: Raw - I changed this thinking it might be better

Buffer: Main

Then Periodic Save: 15mins
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daryllh:
Just got the notification for the update!

I can't update yet because my battery is too low. I'm charging now. Once it's charged enough, I will do the steps you suggest.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unremarked:
Actually, you have to be logging before you get the notification. The notification is for install, not download. That probably happened in the background, at least it did for me. :( Thanks for trying, though!

Btw, completely offtopic, how are you liking your MT4G?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daryllh:
Crap. That would explain why I thought it wasn't right when I hit the update and it powered off.

I am liking it so far. It's a very nice phone and I'm appreciating the performance jump from my Sprint Hero. I'm happy I went with the MT4G instead of the G2.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TyFactor:
Yes, I'm logging prior to the 48 hour time period. I fully suspect I haven't missed the download beginning.

Anyone know if logcat still saves to SD card when the screen is off? Not the device off.

Tonight I'm disabling WIFI and leaving the phone in an area where I know it gets strong reception. I'm logging every 15 mins.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kline:
Called back in again and my "update not received" form was done on the 13th and it "can take up to 7 days" from the time that was done. So, 2 more days before I return this and get a new phone. Hoping to catch an aLogcat (still running) of things if they do go through automatically.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brian6685:
In the dev section of the forum there is a way to force the update and root. It works I did it myself because i never got the update and I'm now rooted w/ update.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kline:
Yeah, I saw. Still fishing for the update link and I've got a few minor hardware defects on my phone too (vanity things, really -- bowed bezel, small chip on the bezel, bowing around camera lens) that the guy at the store wouldn't return it for because "well your phone works fine functionally". Waiting gives me the ammo to swap it anyhow.

Sorry for being vain, but I paid full retail for my phone so I'd like my shiny $450 toy to be about as perfect as it can be!
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TyFactor:
Update:

Did not receive last night but also haven't hit the 48 hour mark yet so I will be logging all day today and hoping for the best.

Can we confirm the link will show up in logcat? (=
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] myrdhyn:
If you're in your remorse period they don't need *any* excuse/reason to exchange it. If you're not, you should be able to get tech support to put a note in your account to exchange it for not having been able to recieve the OTA (they are aware some people just aren't getting it).
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kline:
Return, yes, for a re-stock fee. They would not exchange it at the store for a minor cosmetic defect, though. I already tried.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gaww:
TMo store or other?

Most stores have a no questions return policy - can you simply do that and then get another somewhere else?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kline:
T-Mo store. Only one around I've seen so far, and AFAIK most places won't accept a return they didn't sell as it comes out of their sales numbers.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gaww:
I meant return to the store purchased from. TMo won't let you just return it - I thought that was allowed by their terms and conditions?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unremarked:
They tried to get me to pay a re-stock fee once, but I think it was just $10 and that guy was a douchebag who was overruled by his manager when I made a stink about it.

Could always go with the good old "I'm taking my ball and going home" routine. Either they exchange the device for another and make you happy, or you are returning it completely and walking out the door with your cash. Preferably get a Manager around. If they still won't exchange it, I'd get my money back, then go to another T-Mobile store, complain about the service at the other for a possible discount, and re-purchase.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kitsunisan:
Just got the update notification five minutes ago. Had alogcat running all day, saving every 15. I've had my phone by me most of the night, I know the time span it came in so if there's a link it should be easy to find. Too fraking tired to look now unfortunately, I'll search through in the morning, but does anyone know just what I should be looking for?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unremarked:
Should be an https web address.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TyFactor:
I'm not sure but I believe the file comes from google/android.

Do you know regex?

Possibly a search for .android. or .google. might be a start.

Grats on this - hopefully it shows up in there. I've been logging for the last two days and still ahve not received the OTA, thinking about doing a hard reset but I don't want it to start downloading before I get logCat running.. Thinking about how to hardreset, put the phone where it gets no signal, and installing logcat frmo the SD card. Not sure how to do this. Not sure how I would install an ADK without downloading something to do so.

The phone stock can't install from SD card can it? What if I move an app to SD card now, prior to hard reset?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unremarked:
I believe a factory reset wipes /.androidsecure, which is where apps go when you move them from the phone to the SD card in Froyo.

If you do a hard reset, I think the only way to prevent it from downloading would be to do it with your SIM card out so it can't connect to the T-Mobile network. As for the app, you can download the aLogcat apk onto your SD card from the interwebz then go under Menu > Settings > checkbox Unknown Sources and then use a file explorer(like AndExplorer, or Astro) to install.

...

..As i stated on the other thread, the only forsure way is to use logcat on adb cause the process goes beyond reboot which is when it looks like it download the update, not before.

Unfortunately i had already updated when i saw and figured out all of this, but hopefully other that havent could help us ;-)
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unremarked:
The problem with that theory is the notification is for installation, not for download. I believe that when the phone is in any other state other than fully powered on and in the Android OS, it doesn't have a data connection.

Anyway, beyond my speculation here, I know for sure when I installed my update I started adb logcat before hitting the notification. When the phone shut down, adb lost the device. I tried adb logcat again but it sat at "Waiting for device" until it booted back up.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] A|G:
okay so now we narrowed it down to use ADB Logcat to monitor all of this from the minute after u make ur first 5 minutes call cause we sure wont miss it then ;-)
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TyFactor:
So my plan is to leave it hooked up to ADB logcat overnight and hope to catch it downloading the update overnight.

[Android Apps and Games] niraj87:
I tried Handcent but it still provides only a threaded view, not the classic view with Inbox/Outbox. I noticed that it breaks down a long msg into a couple or triple of bubbles, which sucks !

Abt the link provided above, I have the same app (as I mentioned in my intro post), which is the only app having Inbox/Outbox, but doesnt display the whole msg, in case of long ones. Now, on 2.1, its giving me a forced stopped error on opening the Inbox, hence turned useless.
[Android Apps and Games] tomj777:
The splitting of SMS bubbles in Handcent is odd. I don't see that in received messages. In sent message settings the are two options which might be responsible :split messages and convert to mms. Check those out.

Regarding inbox/outbox view: there is a separate view for undelivered messages : goto main (middle button) settings and look under "more". Probably not what you're looking for although I noticed you did not type inbox/sent.

I know it's not the same as folders with counts of unread.

Good luck with your hunt.

By now I am sure everyone has been directed to some instruction similar to the one here solo.dc3.com/dinc/ to install the OTA and re-do root. However if you have uninstalled any VZW software the install still fails.

There is however a file in the update.zip file called updater-script located

META-INF\com\google\android

if you pay attention to what is causing the install to fail then you can edit out the asserts/installs that are causing the failure. I had an issue with VzNav.apk I removed it long ago and the install failed. Once I found this file I was able to run this install without a hitch.
[Droid Incredible General] thevoiceless:
I went through the list at http://www.chadhaney.com/droidIncDefault/ and downloaded all of the stuff I was missing; do you think it would be easier to re-install them/check permissions/etc or do it your way? After going through that list, I at least know what I'm missing now.
[Droid Incredible General] riverrat087:
How do you edit in the updater script? I tried deleting the assert line that causes me the failure and reapplying my edited update package, then i get an error that says update package bad. I also noticed that before I edited the update script, the size of the script was 97kb. After I deleted out the line, the size changed to 99 kb. Could that be the problem?
[Droid Incredible General] ozzman54:
You have to sign the update.zip after you change anything inside it.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=666441 will help you do it if you're on windows.
[Droid Incredible General] mattbat:
With Winrar (which I used) you have to add a "comment": signed by SignApk

and it will work. Be sure you zip up the same directory structure as well.

The reason I did it this way is b/c even after re-installing VzNav.apk it still failed complaining about it. So the edit was the only way.

Hey guys I have been trolling this forum for some very useful information, and it has helped me quite a bit, but on this one I am stuck. Every time I try and delete something on this phone (Samsung Vibrant) it just comes back. This was not my phone before, I am just trying to put it back to stock.

I have flashed the phone 3 times using odin, including using the re-partition option.

When I hook the phone up to the pc, and load update.zip into the root folder, and reboot into recovery mode, it says cannot find sd card/update.zip. Even when I go in and manually delete apps if I reboot the phone, they all just come back.

Am I missing something? part of me wants to say its something easy.. but I have searched and searched about this and found nothing. Is there a mod out there that does this? -Thanks

I'll help you out before you needlessly flash roms over and over and over.

Before you say, "WTF!!!! That doesn't answer my question" please read to the end.

1. As I understand your problem, you want to wide everything from your INTERNAL SD Card.

2. as such, The steps are as follows:

3. Go to settings.

4. Go to "SD Card and phone storage"

5. "Unmount phone storage"

6. "Format phone storage"

This is assuming that you are ALREADY on stock Rom.

If not, flash the stock first, then wipe your internal SD.

Remove your External SD and SIM card. *(Not required), but i'm paranoid, and this always helps me feel better on the off chance that something does happen while i'm wiping the internal SD.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jorsh03:
That was first thing I tried to do, sorry I didnt post that in OP. I tried to unmount and format using the in phone software. I have tried a hard reset using the button combinations on the phone. I have also done a factory format using the service code. All to no avail.

Thanks for the input.. believe me, if I could have avoided the time and hassle of reading about odin I would have. Odin was a last resort.

I dont know if this is helpful or not but after I format the internal sd.

Total Space: 13.18 GB

Free Space 12.31 GB

I am really beginning to think that the internal SD is broken/corrupted or something. As I said in the OP when I boot into recovery, it says it cannot find sdcard/update.zip. Furthermore, if I mount the usb as mass storage, and go into the folders and delete pictures/whatnot. Even if I unplug the phone from the computer, its as if I never did anything. The pictures will all still be there as if nothing happened. If I go in and manage apps, and remove them all one by one, then reboot the phone all the apps are there. These are all reasons why I think the internal storage is messed up.

I was/am quite confused. This is why I requested ideas from people smarter than me.. i.e you guys :). Thanks for all the input this far, my OP was a little lacking I suppose.
