Hey was just wondering if anyone on the Telus network recieved the update yet?

I am on TELUS with LG Win 7 phone and wanted to make sure they aren't being blocked by my carrier as Microsoft said they might be for some networks. I've checked through Zune and still nothing I know it's only been two days but I'd rather know now if I have to start finding another solution to get updates. If anyone has recieved a notification or knows anything about it let me know thanks :)
[Optimus 7 General] nVd90:
I did not get anything either. I have a feeling a lot of carrier based phones haven't got them yet, and I doubt a lot of them are blocking it.

Edit: I stand corrected according to wmpoweruser It seems like telus hasn't pushed any updates but this can be due to the whole samsung fiasco delaying things.
[Optimus 7 General] bond7734:
Any chance you can send me a link to that page would love to see what's going on.
[Optimus 7 General] xdapants:
it was an informal poll, just people leaving comments saying they had or hadnt gotten it.

I just spoke with a telus rep who wasn't able to tell me anything more about if/when the update would be available (I was on hold while he contacted "the technical team").

The only piece of information I got (which was assumed ... by me anyways ;) ) was that unlike the old system where Telus paid OEMs to create the updates the wp7 updates are "free" to the carrier.
[Optimus 7 General] PieOfJustice:
March 1 and still no update. I think Telus is skipping this one. The Telus rep I called didn't even know Telus carried any Windows phones and thought I meant the iPhone, so you can imagine how long that phone call lasted.
[Optimus 7 General] TH3ROOKIE:
The 7008 update is now available for Telus customers. Here's news for the 7389 update (NoDo);

The earliest date that a TELUS customer can receive the Windows Phone 7 software update is Tuesday March 29th, 2011. Microsoft is releasing the software update in a phased approach and it may take up to four weeks for all TELUS customers to have the option to receive the update and upgrade their device software.

Keep your smartphone running efficiently by using the latest available software.

The release of OS software 7.0.7389.0, provides the following benefits and enhancements for your smartphone.

Introduction of copy and paste functionality.

The one thing I noticed after updating my phone is that it did not do a backup of it. (There was only 9 steps done on the update process) I thought that the pre-nodo update was supposed to make a backup of your phone.

Because he is making fun of the indecipherable babbling that the OP is trying to pass off as communicating with the XDA Forum Community (Probably in hopes of shaming him to learn to read and write english before posting next time - regardless of the content or section).
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] turbosix:
not sure the OP has the required brain cells to understand they're being made fun of.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] a400meter:
Not to derail the bashing but the OP likely speaks english as a second language which is probably more than several of you know. I realize its hard to read/follow, but his question has relevance. Based on the topic your flames are the post that don't belong here. *sigh*
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muchelaguito:
Dude, you really must be "Deezy" I can barely understand what you mean...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ktorres1120:
There sure are a lot of insensitive pricks in this forum. Bashing someone because their English isn't up to par with your standards is pretty low. I can understand letting him know he's posting in the wrong section, but geeeez.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djquick:
Glad I can be of assistance to those whose days were made:D;).

Now to the 2 tulips that are complaining about making fun of the OP for his english:

Yes I am making fun of it because: A) I can, and B) I was in a humerous mood to bash someone else and hopefully give them a complex.

The bottom line is that the OP didn't post in the proper section and his question is completely irrelevant to this section of the forum. I mean after all the crap that we had to deal with in the past 3-6 months with the flaming and posting in the wrong section; then we had a town meeting, and yet there still seems to be wrongful posts and members lacking common sense about following the rules.

Is it that hard to take 10-20 minutes of your time to sit and read the rules and forum categories and sub-categories? It's in "PLAIN ENGLISH" and in "BOLD" (i.e. Vibrant Android Development, Vibrant Q&A, Vibrant General Section) and even the categories have a little description underneath their title.

Point being; stop being lazy and posting just anywhere, take a few minutes out of your busy schedule to read a little.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tsubus:
Hi all,

I had CM7 on my phone (nightly build #3), which worked just fine. Today, after a reboot, the phone wouldn't start. The CM7 logo shows up, stays there for a while, after which the screen turns black and nothing happens. I tried going into the recovery menu to do a restore of a working backup, I've tried wiping the data and cache, I've tried pretty much anything. Nothing seems to work. When performing the restore, I get the following error: "error while erasing boot image", along with some other errors about the phone not being able to mount the cache partition or something (see image below). The only thing that I've done before this happened, was to delete some stuff from the SD card, but it should've been nothing important, just some backups and downloads.

Any help would really be appreciated, as I can't use my phone at all right now.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lainvalenajr:
Okay download an new rom on your computer. Go to recovery and mount sd card then tranfer the new rom to your sd card. Then flash new rom. See if that works
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1cooljoe:
I'm finally going android. After 2 years on the iphone 3gs, my contract is up and I can come to the dark side. I've always been intrigued with the Dell Streak b/c of it's screen size. When the Atrix came on the scene, the laptop dock really impressed me. But after checking out some reviews, the performance of the laptop accessory just isn't quite there. Now, that the streak is just under $50, should I go ahead with the streak, or make a play for the atrix? What say you all?
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skyscraper04:
play both devices first and you decide.be careful though because streak on bestbuy has outdated build so thats means its slow and laggy but if you got the froyo build its like night and day.good luck
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1cooljoe:
If I do get the streak, I'm putting streakdroid 1.7 on there asap.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wornick:
I just moved from my Nexus One to a Streak this past week and haven't looked back. I was actually planning on getting the Atrix, the locked bootloader kinda ruined it for me though. I guess what I'm trying to say is I'm glad I went with the Streak, it's an amazing phone.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] p51d007:
play with them both, BUT, make sure the streak has 2.2 on it, or it isn't a level playing field. Since I got mine last fall, I don't think I could use a smartphone with less than a 5" screen ;)
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marvin02:
While the Atrix has very cool specs it also has the worst overlay in the form of MotoBlur. In my experience it needs the dual-core processor just to make up for the resources that Blur uses.

If you want to see what new Atrix owners are saying visit the Atrix area in the Motorola owners forum.

I have read reports that SuperOneClick will root the Atrix.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1cooljoe:
I went to AT&T yesterday and played with teh Atrix. I wasnt too impressed. Sure, it is fast and all, but the screen size just sucks. I think I'm going the way of the Streak. Also, will I have any problems rooting my streak if I do get it from AT&T. I've been seeing some threads saying that the AT&T streaks are locked.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] royale192:
The at&t sim is locked. It can still be rooted and flashed.

I've been an iPhone user since the launch of 3.0. Problems here and there, nothing too major. But I wanted a new phone after my contract was up. Nothing for a few months. Then, the Attic. So yesterday I got it. From the moment I stepped out, NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS. Now, some if. It most are not really Android problems but if they work on the iPhone they should work in general. I'm so pissed I want to return it but I'm not sure what'll happen to my contract (they overrode and let me keep unlimited).

1) No voicemail. Not Atrix but AT&T. So angry.

2) My school email doesn't work unless I download a 3rd party app. What is this? With apple, one mail app and everything in it. Works perfectly. This is a big deal for me. Gmail works perfectly, but...

3) Contacts is ****ed beyond belief. I add gmail and it adds everyone who I've ever emailed or enailed me as a contact. Merging takes forever. This also pissed me off.

4) Hardware issue. Which retard put the power button in the BACK of the phone? Great way to turn it on flat on a table.

4) tap to correct. Iphone tap and it puts the cursor where you are and then asks what you want to do. Android? Menu pops up and I have to choose select text.

In all, this is by far the worst first impression of a phone I have EVER had. I hate it so much and I hope I can return it without adverse effects on my unlimited data plan. To those that day u need time to get used to it, how can I get used to it when half of what I want to do doesn't work?

edit:

Let me be clear. I fixed some of these issues after factory resets:4 of them. This phone has caused me nothing but aggravation. I fixed google contacts and my friend with an Ego is helping me customize it. I hope to god someone will post a bootloader or whatever it is. Maybe ill like the phone. Im giving ituntil monday and then tuesday I return it.

4) Tap once really short. If you tap longer, the mentioned menu pops up.
[Atrix 4G General] akachay:
so what do you want to accomplish with these rants? you're probably not cut out for android. return it the attrix and make-up to your iphone. tell the csr, you want to keep everything intact and give you back your upgrade option, pay the 15% restocking fee and be done with it. no more frustrations and rantings like a teenage, and live happily ever after with iphone.
[Atrix 4G General] pfaction:
The reason I did not get the iphone 4 is because I thought the biggest best android would have the best to offer. So I waited. I love choice. But when simple things go wrong along with first day frustration? Incredibly bad. I'm at a loss over the emailing thing and the hardware thing.

This entire forum gives you a love/hate relationship for Android phones.

I hate my iPhone 4. Nothing works on it but texting and calling (at least usually) facebook is ****, email is ****, signal is ****, its slow, buttons dont respond.

But it sounds like I'm not getting any sort of upgrade with another Android. I broke my Galaxy S in half. Literally half. Maybe I'll keep waiting for another phone and not the Atrix.

[Atrix 4G General] NonovUrbizniz:
Someone should send this thread to Motorola... the people they're trying to protect with all their control over the device are the people who don't want it to begin with.

The people they're screwing by keeping it locked down actually want the phone. lol.

Sounds to me like you entered all your accounts in the motorblur account thing.

That would give you the most iphone-like integration but it will also slow down the phone and make it more of a pain in the butt.

You can customize a TON on Android but it takes work. The phone doesn't read your mind yet... iphone "works" because it DOES NOT WORK... lol

It's great at what it does but that's not enough for power users. It's great for soccermoms and even surface level dorks... super nerds NEED android... Hell I'd take customized winmo6 over iphone ios. It does more. It's just not pretty doing it or simple to setup.
[Atrix 4G General] pfaction:
I'd love to hear your explanation about my email. Gmail works fine. My school's? Not at all. I used the help files and whatever. My friend synced his to his gmail, I prefer separate. Your Android motto is to be ABOVE the iphone. Whatever it can do you can do better. Now he got it to work in k9. Im perplexed as to how a stock email app wouldn't have some basic features like TLS (I could be getting acronym wrong) or whatever else he did. I took some time to learn it but not as much as I should have, you're right, but if I have to mess with it so much to get what tiij no effort with an inferior phone?
[Atrix 4G General] neer2005:
I have never heard of TLS.
[Atrix 4G General] pfaction:
I wouldn't say that. Now yes it is simplistic to use but there should be no argument that a phone should be simple to use. With jailbreaking people do aaazing things. That's meant for the afficinados. Same with android. Im not an afficinado. I just want it to work in he surface before I go further. If minor tweaking doesn't work and someone knowledgable had to sideswipe it ut shows. To me. A lack in openness.

1- Have google voice work your voicemail. its better anyways and free

2- Did you even try the email app manual setup? It works with pretty much anything. Ignorance isn't a reason.

3- Easily fixed on www.gmail.com. Just erase your "other" contacts. Keep it to your "My Contacts" list that YOU setup yourself. Again, ignorance.

4- Download an app from the store that makes your volume rocker wake the phone. Again ignorance.

4- Putting number 4 again because you did... Its a double tap to correct now... Wow thats incredibly difficult.

Seriously one of the worst ignorant whining posts I have ever seen.
[Atrix 4G General] psufan5:
So instead you whine about it instead of finding out the proper settings from your email admin?
[Atrix 4G General] pfaction:
Lol.

1) Or I can have my provider who I am paying for actually give me a voicemail.

2) Obviously I tried the manual email application otherwise I wouldn't have noticed about the TLS or SSL.

3) Or they could just not have synced all the contacts ever contacted, instead of me going and deleting eveything? One button vs deleting, you choose.

4) Already said this was occuring, but thanks for affirming that you can't read.

5) Thanks for reading the previous post!

[Atrix 4G General] elementaldragon:
.... did you ever actually look at your Gmail contacts? Anyone you've ever contacted basically gets added AS a contact. Unless there's an option to not store email addresses that you've emailed, they will be considered a contact. Or you could do the other thing that's been mentioned. There's a setting to hide all contacts that don't have a phone number. See.... there's your "one button".

[Atrix 4G General] bumoftheday31:
I'm coming from an iPhone 3g as well. I had some of the issues you had as well, here is my response

1) When moving over, they did not switch from visual to standard voicemail as they should have. It took a 30seconds call to ATT to fix this. Blame who signed you up. I switched to google voicemail right away, as it is better and free

2) Android should be able to handle email the same way. You will have 2 apps for exchange and gmail, but this is essentially a moot point because of notifications.

3) Took 5 seconds to fix this.

4) If you have to use the fingerprint reader, this is the best place for it. I need a password on my phone per my work's exchange settings, and love having it there

5) Already addressed, I had no issues with this

If you want the simplest interface, go get an iPhone. If you want customization and the freedom to do whatever you want, keep your Atrix. You may have to figure out how to make it do what you want it to do, but it will do it.

Even though I've barely had it a day, I can't imagine going back to an iPhone.
