i think the new version of android is supposed to come out october, at least thats what i heard, since the new nexus prime is supposed to come out october as well.

all i know is once the nexus prime comes out, im going to get it...

What carrier will the prime be on? Will it have a keyboard?

A certain person who happened to be named matt mentioned something about the holiday weekend not seeing the update or something like that.

I got the survey a day or so after the soak. I complained about two things: the 3g icon shifting a pixel(I made a fix already for that) and the annoying new non-standard transitions. Why moto? I'm expecting ota release within the next week though.

What are these “non-standard transitions”?

It's a Samsung device of the Nexus line.

It won't be “on a carrier”; just a regular unlocked 3G GSM phone, at least for Europe and Asia.

Verizon will, according to the rumours, have some DROID Prime, though.

I know you can't install official Gingerbread OTA release when rooted, but can the update be found when still rooted? I don't wish to unroot my phone and then find out that the update is not available to me yet. I am running stock 2.4.330.

 

[Gasai Yuno]

Yes, it can be checked for, and even downloaded.

My wifes gingerbread download has started right now. I checked systems updates and there it was..

 

[mr.inter]

Yes, it can be checked for, and even downloaded.

Therefore is an update displayed when a phone is rooted with bloatware frozen? And if yes is it possible to be downloaded and installed? I would like to be given a precise explanation on this please.

No update yet here either...

 

[Gasai Yuno]

You can check for updates, and let it download the new firmware.

But it won't install.

Repeating once again as it doesn't seem to stick:

Updates are rolled out in phases; not everyone instantly receives the update. They go by MEID blocks. If your MEID is added to the whitelist, you can get the update. If not, you can't.

Once 2-4 weeks pass, the whitelists are disabled and the update becomes available to everyone.

This is done to prevent the update servers from being overloaded (DDoS'd) by thousands of downloads.

But it won't install.

Therefore I assume that the best way to go is to check for updates and if I find the Gingerbread update, I restore all bloatware, unroot, download and install the update. I thought that if rooted and bloatware frozen/removed the update is not even found.
