Maybe I had the wrong version of touchdown then. I uninstalled it, since it was only checking every 15 minutes and put on moxier mail which does have push capability, and I like the interface better than touchdown.

What specific touchdown is that? I only had the free one, because I didn't want to pay for it until I could prove it did what I wanted.

I'd really just rather fix the native exchange server. Seems really silly that we have to use a 3rd party app for something that this 2.2 was supposed to (and, in my case did) natively.
[Continuum General] ruoppster:
Just got update from verizon...bad news it isn't 2.2, seems to be a commercial software update
[Continuum General] ruoppster:
Commercial package d17

Code 200
[Continuum General] CrazyKnight122:
Just got the update as well. I heard that we might get froyo in march.

Who knows at this point.
[Continuum General] CrazyKnight122:
Guess i spoke to soon said update failed lol.
[Continuum General] Weudel:
Has anyone gotten the update to work... And are you still able to see your SD card from your computer. Last week's update for the Fascinate broke that.....
[Continuum General] Weudel:
Updated and everything seems to work. I kept root and can still access SD from my computer (Ubuntu)...
[Continuum General] CrazyKnight122:
Yeah I can't get the update to wOrk on my phone for some reason. Works Fine on gfs phone, and the computer can see her sd card just fine.

Did the update fix anything? Any noticeable changes?

[Continuum General] samuelhadams:
I'm not even prompted to update. Must be cause of my gaining root access and deleting bloatware.
[Continuum General] mikeumd:
Same here any ideas how to get the bloatware back?
[Continuum General] samuelhadams:
I'm trying to unroot my phone to see if that will fix my issue.

I now am able to manually try to update. The update will fully download but when it restarts my phone to install the update the update fails. I'll keep you posted on my progress.
[Continuum General] CrazyKnight122:
Yeah same thing happens for me. And im just rooted i didnt delete any bloatwear so idk.
[Continuum General] Weudel:
I'm rooted with Z4 and it still worked... Maybe something with busybox? idk...
[Continuum General] CrazyKnight122:
I rooted using Z4 also, I tried to unroot and run the update but it still fails.
[Continuum General] samuelhadams:
I made a backup of the stock recovery. I'm betting it had something to do with that.
[Continuum General] Weudel:
Looks like the update unrooted my phone. I'm having some issues with Z4 right now. So, with the Vibrant getting 2.2 TOMORROW, I'm thinking I'll hold off on messing with for a couple weeks.
[Continuum General] mikeumd:
lol took it back to verizon and got them to view it as system defect so am getting the replacement tomorow how do i back up files and such for next time?
[Continuum General] Weudel:
2.2 Update could come pretty quickly... I'd just leave everything intact for a little while...
[Continuum General] CrazyKnight122:
Im going to try that, cuz its kind of pissing me off that my phone wont update lol. And if 2.2 is coming out soon i want it lol.
[Continuum General] sytech55:
I don't get it why Verizon doesn't release 2.2. Samsung has the update for other phones/carriers, just not for Verizon. I just got my Continuum a week ago and a friend picked up the Droid2, and he has 2.2.

Is there a list of changes from 2.1 to 2.2 that I can look at?

I picked up a desktop and car cradle for my phone and both have a sticker saying "The 3.5mm audio out port will be fully functional when 2.2 is released to Galaxy S phones".

What the heck is that about?
[Continuum General] Weudel:
Actually, The Vibrant was the first Galaxy S phone to taste Froyo... and that started yesterday.
[Continuum General] nitsuj17:
first sgs phone on an *american* carrier to receive *official* froyo that is ;)

the international sgs phones are almost universally on froyo...and the vibrant/epic/captivate in the us have had numerous leaks that have been turned into reliable froyo roms
[Continuum General] dfgged:
Well I think it's about time the Fascinate and the continuum got a leak or 2 too X(

That would just be awesome
[Continuum General] Weudel:
Yeh, I mean to say "first US Galaxy S"... Need to proofread, I guess...
[Continuum General] nitsuj17:
We ve had 2.1 leaks for the fascinate....the latest ota we have had in some form since november....as for 2.2 no such luck so far (afaik) but our devs have built 2.2 on a .29 kernel....its a wip but its pretty usable and more so day by day
[Continuum General] adrynalyne:
Well, at least we know they are working on it.

Please don't ask where I got the image, I am not at liberty to say.
[Continuum General] ruoppster:
And why should this photo impress us? For real, not trying to be a smart ass.
[Continuum General] trailblazer101:
umm...

Um, dude? Take a good look before you curse and be a douche..

Look at the top bar? notice any difference?

In case you don't, its black...

and that can only mean one thing....

Thank you adrynalyne for this :D it renews some hope :P
[Continuum General] ruoppster:
****...didn't I say I want trying to be an asshole, I just didn't know what was so special about the photo and asked for clarification...then you have to go and start attacking people for asking a simple question!
[Continuum General] dfgged:
C'mon guys, are we really gonna argue over this? :p
[Continuum General] samuelhadams:
No illwill was intended so it's no biggy.
[Continuum General] Weudel:
Seriously, we need to keep the discussion calm and on topic. Thank you.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] escalavee:
I just rooted my Incredible. I got the Incredible as a replacement for my Eris. When I was rooted with the Eris, I had Amon-Ra recovery, and now with the Incredible I have Clockwork, which I am unfamiliar with.

When I got the Incredible, I didn't format the SD card (like a dummy) and the Incredible partitioned it.

I put my ROM .zip file on the Incredible partition. Went into recovery, did a back up, did a data and cache wipe, and when I went to flash the ROM, Clockwork was reading the Eris partition, and of course, the ROM was not on there, so I did a restore and here I am.

Can I just put the ROM on the Eris partition and flash from there? Will it install and boot properly? Or should I just pull all the data and reformat the SD card?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smtom:
If you are using the SD from the Eris, there's your answer...

On the other hand, did the DInc not come w/ it's own SD, and have you tried that one?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g00s3y:
If you don't have the Eris anymore, why would you still need that "partition"? Just format the whole card to FAT32 with no partitions. If that doesn't fix the problem then the card may be buggy.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] escalavee:
Thanks, but it was neither... DUH! When i mounted the phone, it was reading 2 drives which I thought was 2 separate partitions until I realized that one was SD and one was internal storage.

I am all good on that now, but now I am having issues with flashing ROMs because I have an SLCD incredible, and I can't find a kernel that I know for sure has the drivers I need for SLCD... but taht is a different topic!

Thanks again.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhillyCheez:
i heard lou's #6 works. just save that kernel on your sd card for when ya need it.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] escalavee:
Awesome! Thanks. i will try that. i have been searching for 2 days, and I have not come across one single reported case of this happening.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhillyCheez:
Tell me how it goes. I've been helping my friend who has an slcd. The first rom I put him on is skyraider 3.5 and it works perfectly without changing the kernel.

Sent from my ADR6300
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] escalavee:
have you ever heard of anyone having this problem? I have been researching this for 2 days, and I have not read of one single person that experienced this!
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhillyCheez:
Yes which is why I know Lou's #6 should work. I also think koush's #2 works with slcd.

I believe certain ROMs come with a kernel that supports slcd. CMs ROMs should work.

Have seen several questions about how to get one of these codes so thought I'd share an easy method...

http://support.microsoft.com/contactus/cu_sc_selector_chat?ws=support#

Click general. Tell them you are setting up windows phone 7 and it required an activation.

they asked for my name, phone number, and manufacturer of phone (HTC)

within a minute I had my code :)

Hope it helps;)

I visit there, chat with the supporter... And he told me to call my local supporter.

He told me to call the activation center and didn't give me any code :|

tried chatting and they told me to call support

I tried chatting with general chat, as the instructions said, and they told me to call the technical support 800 number right away rather than giving me an activation code. I think they've caught on to this. :-(
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] andrews1mmo:
Dammit, even though I selected united states as my location the agent said I was from the UK so I needed to give them a call :(

Worked for me now...after trying 6 or 7 times..

I don't understand why some of them are lying and saying that they dont have the tools to do it and that I have to call the support instead.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] nos2k5:

had to give the support agent following informations: full name (real), phone number (my number), brand of phone (htc), no live id, no imei, no specific model name :eek:

had to wait a couple of minutes while she generated my key and got it! :D
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] raviley:

What did you tell them? I tried twice already. Even used an anonymous US proxy, cause the first time they detected that I'm from Russia and told me to call local Support. Anyway, both reps insisted on me calling a 1-800 number...:mad:

Just give me a minute to generate a product key here." GOT IT! The Rep never asked for a device brand or model. And I didn't have to lie a single bit. :)

I will be holding on to the code for now as i gave my real name and number. Also my email is tied to my XBOX LIVE. I haven't even installed WP7 yet... :)

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] candytripn:
Yeah, sorry for not being clearer about which one to click. As pointed out, it's the top chat option that says product sales, general inquiries and genuine advantage questions.

All I can say is that if they refer you to an 800#, try again. Maybe I got lucky on my first try. Glad to see my first thread started here helped some of you out :)

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] deho:
It works!!!

I have got mine after two agents pointed me to other agents because they didnt have key generator.I had to quit chat and try again.Third agent had the key generator and after he asked me "What message do you get ?? " , and I responded "An activation code is required before we can finish setting up your phone. Please contact customer service!!" Than the agent asked me my Name and Phone Number , he told me because I was from Croatia (he could tell by my IP address ), and North American phones are different from croatian (Because of Localization )to contact Croatian Microsoft and gave me a direct link.

I said to him that I bought my phone from e-bay from America and that I want him to help me , not some Croatian MS help desk.After a minute he gave me my code xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx.

THX Microsoft

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] sabb0ur:
I finally got one. Had to fire up a second chat, the guy was more helpful and told me he wants to help me but he doesn't have a generator.

He told me if it wouldn't be too much of an inconvenience, I should close this chat and open another one, and someone with the generator will help me.

By the way, they keep track of your chat sessions, so be consistent.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Cookiejam:
Brilliant. Had to try 3 times before I could get mine. Just told them I ebayed a HD7 and the phone wasn't available to use to ring them up.

Just an FYI and to add my input,

Decided to try the conversation thing above. Dont have an HD2 or winmo phone yet but supposed to be coming this afternoon. It worked fine. Got my activation code sitting comfortably in my email now when I need it (emailed it to myself).
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] xILukasIx:
I tried it four times now, and they tracked my IP and know that I already asked for it.

I only get "We don't have the tools to generate an activation code."...

Could someone try it for me?

They already know my question and greet me and the next message is: "Sorry but I cannot help you with your concern", as he already checked my last chat sessions.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] candytripn:
hmm, thats odd. I actually just did the chat thing for another member here, first agent couldn't help... said his tools were being updated. I mentioned a "friend" (myself) being able to get a code this way and he said to just chat back. Next guy got me (for another member) a code.

My advice is to try again, different email perhaps, or from an internet hotspot...
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] candytripn:
God knows my account will get blown up with messages for this one, but I feel this community has given so much to me....

If you are seriously having issues, and have tried multiple times (as some agents are either unaware, unwilling, or unable to generate a code... some prolly too lazy) and are willing to give me your information (and maybe some beer funds to my paypal ;) ) then I will try my best to help you AT MY CONVINENCE

If all your options are exhausted, PM with the following:

Your first and last name

Your email (or go make a hotmail and give that to me, just the email, no passwords or anything crazy)

Your phone number

As stated in my post above, I was able to chat into MS to obtain a second code for another member, using a new hotmail account, and close to (or as close as possible to whatever I was given) his/her number, from the same computer, on the same internet (though I connect through a bars hotspot from below me)

Again, this is on MY TIME, and I am very busy with school and my job, as well as figuring out as much as I can with this wonderful, horrible, amazing, frustrating, etc phone I'm rockin. If I feel anyone is just being lazy, or pushy or anything like that, I WILL NOT help.

That being said, I will attempt to help as many as I can, as I often have a little extra time at school between classes where I could chat into MS for you.

(please please please, try yourself several times, try a different internet, a different computer, a different rep, maybe even try praying first if you're into that)

If for some reason I missed a forum rule about requesting info like this, or am in anyway breaking a rule, or feel I may be, or am alerted to the fact, or am tired of the messages begging for help, I will refuse to help, and do my best to remove or have removed this post. It is not my intention to break any rules, laws or in anyway assisst in such. If you feel this post does just that, pm me and I will take the actions needed to remedy this.
