Me, me, me.... damn it HTC
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
nah
more irritated with google for not having App2SD functionality in the FIRST android release.
if it wasn't for the bogus 512mb "ROM limit" on installing apps, i wouldnt be awaiting froyo with such baited breath.
Yep been waiting all weekend! We should put a post when someone actually gets the 1st update from htc so we know!

The weekend is not yet finished. So, I see no reasons to get upset.
And anyway, they might have really started to roll-out, as HTC Germany says.

Yeah but during weekend is not when its 1 minute over midnight to monday.. it should already been out so people can update whenever they feel like during the weekend.. stop the teasing and just get it out when its so close.
Nope, not at all. You'll get it when you get it. Chill.

This. IIRC it was only Germany and NL that "officially" announced it was coming, so nobody else has the right to ***** anyway if it doesnt.
If I wanted to be treated like this I would have bought a iPhone.
Of course I'm not irritated, I have a life!

What limited would that be, and because as far as i'm aware the limit is hardware - the Dell Streak running 1.6 has 2gb available for apps storage.

I really think some people need to step away from the internet and go out and have some fun. If it's here when you get back then you can install; if it's not then not.
Surely an update to your mobile phone can not be the most important thing in your lives...
Not in the least bothered really when it comes, today, tomorrow, next week.
I already have Froyo and its running sweet.
How many stupid Desire users does it take to screw in a lightbulb ?
The be honest I am more irritated by dumb-fu-ks who have more time than brain cells and have to whinge about everything including the firmware release of a completely functional mobile phone. Even worse is the fact that two mouse clicks away is another section of the forum where they could easily download and run about a dozen versions of Android 2.2 hacked/packed/delivered with all the bells and whistles.
So people put the fu-king phone down, chill out, go outside and take a breath of fresh air. You will live longer ....
THE UPDATE WILL COME WHEN IT COMES..... Jumping up and down about it, checking the OTA update on the phone every 2 microseconds and making another 1.4 billion new threads won't make it appear any faster...
Next instalment in the new pointless thread forum - "I fu-ked up my phone when updating the OTA ! Help !!!", "Why won't the HTC OTA work on my Orange/Virgin/crap branded Desire" and my favourite "What's an OTA", oh and another "Anyone got Froyo Update?" (speak of the devil http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=741397 )

Nope, not really. Pretty much every company releases dates then has to put it back to some extent, this is nothing new.

you do have a point here. but: why do you get so angry?
you accuse them of having nothing else to do than wait for the froyo release. yet, you fail to convey this in an appropriate manner: In order to make them realize that they are poor souls (whose sole purpose in life is a phone software update), you better tell them in a way they don't perceive as *****ing and hating.
however, the way you get all angry about them raises the suspicion that you yourself have little else to do in your free time. complaining about them doesn't help anyone!

As we all know HTC promised that GB will come out for bravo at the end of July. But now since its August HTC again Failed.

Oh never HTC? Are you out of your mind?... Just because HTC got a day or 2 late makes u feel uncomfortable enough that.u won't buy most reliable brand?...
Talk of Sony.. I bought X10 mini launched in 2 010, they didn't even update that to Froyo...
Yeah.. The wait was excitement for a better software... I kept my phone running one Rom for 2 months... I don't waiting a day or 2 more...
There must be solid reason they got a bit late... I can imagine what could be going through their developers...
Just relax.. Chill out... Wait another day or 2...
at least they announced that u will get update...unlike sony who strictly said..No Updates...
Talk about Apple...I had the Iphone for more than 2 years. The updates to the OS never bring something really new, the main reason I figured Apple does then is to keep the phones locked. At least Android is much more flexible. You cannot compare a huge company like Apple that has to develop an update for just one product to an update for Android that has to be adapted for hundreds of different devices.
Actually this whole gingerbread fuss is becoming funny after a while...The only reason I want to have the official update is to see if it will be more battery efficient. I am runnning different Gingerbread Roms ( with Sense because I really like the integration) for a few months now and none of them really brought more battery life to my phone...

Good riddance. Both of you.
I have seen the amount of highlanders HTC support has to deal with daily in the past few days and I genuinely feel sorry for them.
Well at least you can root the phone and use a custom rom to get gingerbread now. Wait, you are using a custom rom - why are you complaining?
Soo, does anyone wanna leak this to the xda community?

even if there is an OS leak, may need a firmware update for it hence carriers and OEM needed
as far as any upload I will be shocked if 7720 is leaked

Well, the true full version will only happen when all your apps are updated to be compatible with multi-tasking.

Sniff....Sniff....starting to smell BS.... a 4 post user claiming he's got something that everyone wants when it's claimed that MS is upgrading phones, not giving the software to users to update.
Maybe it's me but, I kind of feel it's a "longshot" that he acutally has it.
I hope to be wrong tho...

That would still not be fall, right?
If Vodafone is really about to roll out the update tomorrow, if the rollout for users with unbranded devices will start as well.
Im in my office from 8 so hopefully get it all done 1st thing
I hope this happens as im getting a bit fed up now

I will be in my office from 8 also. If this is true then i will either get to update via zune at work or will have to wait till i get home and roll back to nodo before upgrading.
That would really be awesome, but keep in mind there was only one "trusted source" for this information.
Even if this trusted source comes from within Vodafone Germany, this is still not a confirmation since the rollout will actually be initiated by Microsoft and Vodafone is only responsible for testing.
Also September 21st is not Fall yet and joe belfiore tweeted a link to a website stating September 23rd as the start of fall.
That being said, I'm keeping my fingers crossed. The good thing about this rumor is that we will find out in due time.
Its not fall yet.. i got a tweet from twitter hero telling me 23 sep is fall.. and i was like 'you better not send another tweet before that and ya betta release it on sep 23.'
... aaaaand Sept 21st is NOW in australia and there's been no word (ok, it's only 10:15am but still)
I think the updates are pushed out by Microsoft. The previous updates I have received for my DVP have been released at 10am Pacific US time (i.e. Microsoft time ). If it follows the same pattern, you may have a slightly longer wait to find out whether your update is coming today. Feel free to keep checking though, just in case
Also, plugging your phone into your PC (via USB) seems to be the most reliable way of checking if an update is available. The Zune software will alert you if an update is available.

This was a story cooked up entirely by wpcentral, nothing to do with microsoft. They reiterated recently that the update will come in fall, not here yet. Blame the site blatantly looking for hits.

Just a heads up. If Microsoft is going to make an announcement like that... it ain't gonna happen in Portuguese! No offense Portugal... or Brazil.
It's sad that Galaxy S3 and maybe the iPhone 5 (or whatever is called) are probably coming out the next month, and we still have no clue if Windows 8 is going to be able to run on our current devices.
I wanted to get a Lumia, but I might end getting the S3 or an iPhone.
Oh look a Windows Phone 8 concept.

iPhone?! So because there is some uncertainty about an OS that hasn't come out yet... you are going to get a phone that hasn't come out yet?
Why don't you just wait until either the iphone 5 or WP8 compatibility are confirmed?
The rumor mill is saying October for an iphone 5 release. If that is the case there is a pretty good chance we will have some WP8 compatibility clarity by then.
Anyway I'm on contract so I had to get a phone now. There was no way I was going to wait around 6-8 months on contract for a phone. I have to upgrade ASAP to justify the monthly bill I'm paying.
