FYI the rollout has begun! 13.5 MB download and my Tbolt is updated to 2.11.605.5

Didnt even have to manually search for it. Started automatically and took maybe 15 minutes to complete. Voice mail issue and other bugs noted have been resolved.

From what I am reading, they are pushing the update out to T-bolts that had the original update to 2.3, then to handsets with 2.2.

Are you saying that T-Bolt users that got the first Gingerbread OTA update that came out at the end of September will get it first?  I am one of the T-Bolt users that actually got the first Gingerbread OTA update and all I get is the Service Unavailable" error each time I click Check New under Sotware Updates (I do get the "Checking for new software" notice).

Maybe Verizon should quit being so trigger happy with these releases.  I know that they understand how frustrated we are with the lack of updates and the urgency to release them...but I would rather them release the update to ALL Tbolt users rather than release it for an hour then pull it back (which is what it seems like they are doing now).  Seriously considering rooting my phone now.  This is ridiculous...

They generally do staggered rollouts in order to reduce server load so everyone won't get it all at once.  Some are able to pull it manually but that seems to be a coin flip.  If you're really impatient, you can always google for the 605.5 RUU and install that way but note that it will wipe your device.

@Stargazer:  I had been getting the "Error Service Unavailable" popup when I was checking for new sw update also.  It went away after I power-cycled my TB.

 

@crshinn:  I'm dl right now, apparently it's the full 146MB because it's taking quite a while >45min, even over my corp WiFi.  I'm upgrading from 2.2 Froyo (vzw replaced my TB with a Froyo "certified like new" after the voicemail debacle in the GB update).

I am patient. I am patient. At least that is what I keep reminding myself. I rejected the first update because I wanted to factory reset my Tbolt before installing the update. By the time, I was able to do the reset, the update was pulled and I couldn't pull it down anymore.

Crossing my fingers that it doesn't get pulled again.

I'm most definitely NOT a VZW employee. If a post answered your question, please mark it as the answer.

For anyone getting the update, please let us know if you are getting the full 146 MB update or the smaller ~14 GB update so we know which update they are pushing.  I've seen a bunch of people getting the smaller update to upgrade from the previous GB update that got pulled but I haven't seen any indications that the full 146 GB update is being pushed yet.  Thanks.!

crshinn, I am sure that you meant MB and not GB in your post.  Because if the OTA was actually 146 GB, you would not get it since the micro SD card is only 32 GB.

Im with Stargazer, just get the Error "SERVICE UNAVAILABLE"

I had been trying in the recent days and would get the "No New Software Available" but wanted to know if you guys thought the server is just busy or what?

 

Want the new update as I didnt get the original.  Any suggestions other than manually downloading it?

I am getting the update right now.  It just finished downloading (14 MB).  I was updating my contacts and I manually started the backup assistant and I noticed that after the backup it said that the service was unavailable.  I tried again and it was sucessful, so I went ovet to the software update and it worked.  It is now installing the update.

I'm getting the whole 146 right now...  Oct 26th at 1211PM.  I checked for the update myself, and it was available.  I have had the phone about a month.  Don't know what version it had on it.

Anyway, my 146 MB download just started using a manual update. 

 

Good luck everyone!

I think the difference between the update sizes are possibly for the users that got the first Gingerbread update will get the smaller update (almost 14 MB) and those that did not get the first Gingerbread update will get the larger update (146 MB).  That's just my opinion.
