did VZW ever say that Gingerbread will be coming to the Droid Charge?

[SandraW]

no... I'm not one of those people who complain that Verizon and/or Samsung is obligated to provide Gingerbread update.

I do not think they are obligated.

However....    did VZW ever say that Gingerbread will be coming to the Droid Charge?  (in TV commercials, print ads,

in-store ads, etc)

[norelake]

They'll never come out and say that they're going to release the next OS until it's done and ready for the masses. They don't want to be caught with their pants down if they say GB, HoneyComb or Ice Cream will be sent to a device and they cant deliver what they promise.

It's the old saying  "it's better to Under-Promise and Over-Deliver."

I don't care what they promise, I just hope they deliver.

It's coming.

CUrrent leak is __1h. Current Beta is 1m. NExt beta is 3C1B and is last planned stages\, the beta leaks are now 4 behind, streamign works, new customizable UI works. Inhanced vid cap features work. More stable network protocols work, newer flash version works. Much better battery manager, vattery life extendded even with fancy weather report features and animations.

Please no Verizon bull crap preloaded.....

There is a reason you can't access certain apps in market palce durign testing, they are blocked. THE leaks maintain the blocks, the last beta testers builds have more access and that included with aps needign compatibility testing.

Thanks for that information.

Does the Gingerbread update for Samsung Droid Charge come with a spell-checker?

Hey, now, you kids play nice, or there'll be a timeout in your future!

I talked to Technical Support regarding another issue on my phone (the data connectivity issue) and the person I spoke to said that one of the reasons why Gingerbread is being held back on this phone is that other phone models have been having difficulty with transitioning from 2.2 Froyo to 2.3 GB using OTA updates and that a number of them have had to be factory reflashed.

[HoustonHeart]

OTC's are always risky on any phone. Just like the EE2 to EE4 risk since the data loss chance was there. It's best to flash from a file rather then OTA. I had a Motorola fail with an OTA.

The issue isn't the OTA it is those who go fro ma quarky buid to a new build with risk of packet loss.

Anytime you update, get the file, and flash it with the built in updater.

Leaked Beta is now on EP1Q. Gtalk still seems to cause a problem with streaming audio when it is running. TO solve that you goto the terminal and type  Talkoff.  Type Talkon to restore Gtalk for video chat on Google.

Noticable 4g stability and speed increase on the EP1Q and later builds. More steady 20mb+ downloads.
