So, I don't log into this forum for a few days, and now everyone has the 2.2 update? I haven't gotten any notification yet? Am I supposed to wait for it, or is there a way to initiate the update download myself?

John,
U can pull update ur self. Just go to settings - about phone - system updates & u should be able to get it. If u get the not avail. message go ahead & turn the wi - fi on, or u can even do that before trying to save a step. That's what worked for me. Also, I had (50%) showing on batt. when I started & it dwnld (took about (5-10) mins.) & updtd. (took about (10-15) mins.) also, w/ (50%) still showing. I would definitely make sure u have @ least that much. If not make sure u chrg. it up. Also, it was suggested to me to no keep it plugged into chrgr, that may have caused some of the issue some are having w/ it locking up on updt. Hope thi helps, good luck.

On your phone, go to: Settings/ About phone/ System updates and it should say there is an update to download.
Thanks to both of you! found it and downloaded in 9 minutes. updated for about 5 minutes.
Now I can play!
thanks again!
I've heard/read the update causes serious difficulties. what is the advantage of updating now? I thinking of keeping life simple and not updating until the complaints stop.
FranRVs,
I've also seen what's been posted. That sucks! I know how all those folks are feeling, having issues after the update. I was going thru that prior w/ the original bugs. Hopefully they're able to get their issues straightened out very quickly, & also, that vzw & moto comes thru to make that as painless as can be. That's usually my kind of luck, when it comes to me & electronics. I'm usually the (1), that after every(1) else has updated & is having a ball w/ their electronics, I'd be on about my (6th) try w/ no success & major issues. Fortunately for me it's working just fine for me so far. I'm also extremely happy that (I happen to like vz nav. & don't mine paying for it) the vz nav. is now updtd. to (ver. 6) & the voice strmng. thru blth is fixed & working great. The only neg. so far for me is, that after figuring out a way to get my contacts to sort by last / first on X thru gmail, they're now back to being sorted by first / first again, & the way I did it before doesn't seem to be working this time. Hope this gives u a little more info to think about & help u make ur decision, good luck.
