New VZW inc2 update and...

[pickaxe300]

Yep... Check over at xda forums. Andybones has a stock rom deodexed based on this update also.

edit: this is in reply to the question about the radio being pulled from the update.... forgot to quote.

Mine still won't find it. Doesn't even say that software is up to date. Searches for a couple of seconds then closes out.

Are you rooted and romed?
If so, updates have probably been disabled through your rom. If not, then I dont know......

No, I'm completely stock. Haven't felt the need to root this phone. I tried doing it through wifi, still wouldn't. I'll give it a couple of days if it hasn't changed I'll call Verizon and cuss them out.

After rooting this phone, the speed and battery life increased greatly. If you like the stock rom, there is andybones, that way you can rid yourself of the bloat and other vzw crap.. Its all a personal preference whether to root or not.. I probably nerd on my phone more than i should, but then again, why not!!...lol

FWIW...I had this same issue with the last update on my DInc2 and my wife with this update. The only fix for it that I've found is a reset of the device. It's a pain to have to do this, but should address the problem.

First try restarting the phone, dumping the caches. Mine kept saying service unavailable until the restart after which all went as planned.

I reset my phone and got the update. Pisses me off that I need to do that though. Oh well.

Got my update last nite noticed a better signal, better battery life, clock is finally fixed, wish they would of fixed the low speaker volume and can't really explain the next difference exactly. Has anyone notice a difference in notification area? Like background is darker color or black seems more crisp. I'm not for sure what it its or if maybe I changed something myself, but I like it. Was going to get a nexus this morning, but wanted to wait and see reviews. In no hurry because I've been really been happy with this phone coming from og stood can definitely sit on my update for awhile.

othe new stuff:

What does SD Card and Storage encryption mean? Those are new check boxes in the SD&Phone Storage settings tab.

also, i got a new app "Verizon Video" but i have no interest in it.

Which caches? Restarting doesn't help with the check for update errors.

I did notice that the Verizon Video app showed up, played with it a bit. Looks like a streaming video app that gets you access to some shows, but it forces you to watch some of them using over the air data, while some can be watched over wifi. All in all just another useless app from Verizon.

So what software version is this?

posted tomorrow using the space time continuum app on my D1...
