This is the final version of the gingerbread that was released to verizon, and we will all be getting the update FINALLY!  This is not speculation, this is confirmed that it will be EP4 2.3.6.

Hooray!  Finally!  But who knows how long it will actually take for it to show up OTA... 

 

Wanna start taking bets on a release date?

Hopefully by Thanksgiving, but I am a pessimist so I will believe it when I actually load it. Good news though

Are you kidding?  This is 100% speculation.  P3Droid isn't a product line manager for Verizon; he doesn't know what they are going to do any more than we do.  Sure, Verizon may release EP4, or they might find a bug and send it back to Samsung for another revision.  You realize that this is the 3rd "Final" ROM update that has come down the pipe since the last actual, real update?

 

I'm not saying Verizon won't release this, but it is MILES away from being "confirmed."  All this sort of thing does is cause more anxiety and make people more upset that this "final" version isn't on their phones yet.

BLUEVOLUME has a good point!  We have all been subjected to many false alarms re getting Gingerbread BUT, on the other hand, PHILLTHEDRILL has provided us with lots of good solid information.  As it stands at this moment we just don't know.

 

Because of all the BUZZ on various web sites and other folk's posts let's just cool it and hang in there at least until Thanksgiving.

 

We know we will get an update.  The only question is will it be this month (November 2011) or will we have to wait until the next solar eclipse???

Happy about what?  If the update doesn't come out in the next few days this happiness will turn into venom, just like it has dozens of times before.  That's why I don't share any info on here until things are actually available.

 

When the update does come, it is going to be a big deal.  Most every real problem with the Charge has been fixed, and it is super fast.  But until the day big V releases it, none of it really matters.

This is a gingerbread thread, so talking about gingerbread and the buzz about the ota should be talked about, if you can't handle it dont read posts in this thread. That way you don't get angry and confused about it not being out. Of course this third final build may not get pushed out, it is nice to hear about gingerbread news in a gingerbread thread!

People are frustrated that the phone is not being supported. Verizon had confirmed issues and forwarded then onto version and said that there Will be a fix in the next update, who cares if it is gingerbread or not, they just want bug fixes and have been waiting for months when verizon has stated that it will be"soon". That is frustration. the lack of communication as to why there is no bug fixers pushed out to fix these issues. It just so happens that seem to be stuffing this all into gingerbread rather than pushing out bug fixes. These bugs become annoying to some after months of hearing they will get fixed.......when?? Once their 2 year contact is up and it is time to upgrade to another phone? Yay!
