Update going out to Nexus One owners?

Engadget fail...Twitter post from a Google dev
http://twitter.com/#!/retomeier/status/11830023140937728

With this said, has there been a zip released for manual update/poking around? Engadget said its rolling out, Reto Meier said it should be within the next few weeks.
I dont get it
If it is out, then all is well, people got the random predictions for the 6th correct.
Also seems strange to update the SDK and roll out the update on the same day. Or is that just me?

Next few weeks sound decent enough.

Exactly my point. They say its 'rolling out' with no screenshots/zips like there usually is for firmware updates. Ridiculous.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App

Combined with the Twitter post from a Google dev saying they're talking out their arse I think we can safely say it's BS

No, gingerbread isn't out.
The SDK is out, learn the diffrence..

Well... There is a Dump over at the N1 forum.

Have you actually had a look in the thread though? Both threads titled Gingerbread System Dump (or something similar to that) are utter BS. Theyre both SDK dumps, not the system.
Anyone else feeling deja vu? Very similar to the whole FroYo hype. And all other firmware update hypes for that matter.
Lets just wait. When an actual dump arrives, them we can get excited, but today is just a GB SDK update, and no actual system updates AFAIK.

Yeah, you're right. Up to the point I had read people were saying it "looked legit".
Nevermind.

Just got an update.

Just received an update. I am guessing that its the fix for the volume bug.

You should post a screenshot of the update and/or of your updated firmware version page. Otherwise prepare for many to question the validity of your post

there have already been quite a few people posting that they have received the update in this thread. One has even posted screenshots to prove.

I got mine too, arrived about 30 mins ago on o2

stop putting yourself down like that!

Holy .. I hope I will receive the update in the Netherlands. I bought my device in the UK. The device isn't on the market in the Netherlands yet. Guess they will be shipped with the fix. Swell, have to dust off Odin again I guess. Is there a package to flash?
Edit: never mind..found the update package here already.

Got mine earlier today. Just did a manual check for update at around 18 and there it was.
Kinda freaked out when it wouldn't connect to the mobile network after the update, no connection at all heh. Only thing that worked was Wi-Fi. Thankfully fixed by another reboot

Great. Nevertheless I applied the update manually. But good to know for the future.

I just got the update too, but Im rooted so it wont update. Has someone posted a rooted version yet? I'm not really about to read through 200 pages in the other thread
Thanks.

Flash with clockwork, then re-root if desired.

Jelly Bean (yakjuux JRO03C) + new UGLH1 radio for Canadian devices

Hi,
I live in Canada and have my GN with Bell. I've been stuck on 4.0.1 since I got the phone; no updates were ever available.
Recently, I had to get my phone repaired and gave it in to the Samsung place here and when I got it back, it was updated to 4.1.1 (I attached a pic of the info)
I just wanted to ask you guys if all the info there looks good/correct. Also, not really sure how the tech managed to update it since nothing was ever available...
On another note, I was wondering if any of you could direct me to rooting methods (preferably on mac) / ways to change to yakju (also preferably on mac) on the version of the phone I have now... I searched and saw a bunch of different methods and whatnot, but I'm terrified to choose a potentially "wrong" one.
Thanks!

they must have updated it using Odin. is the IMEI the same or a different phone

I don't think I've ever seen that baseband before. I wonder if Samsung is actually close to releasing something for the Candian yakjuxx variant.

Before you change to yakju, would you mind dumping your radio, bootloader and ROM please? You have a new radio, so I'm sure lots of folks would like to try it out. And I'm sure lots of Canadians would like to try out your ROM as well.
I can post instructions later tonight.

[Q] Ota update today?

I just got an ota update pushed today but I haven't tried to update yet because I'm rooted. I am wondering if this is new or if this could be the same update as last time being sent out again. I didn't update the last time because it seemed to be a small update to change the coding of the pinch to zoom feature. Any word of a new update? Thanks in advance

Yep- that's what I'm rockin'- showed up Monday evening for me, but still hasn't popped up on my wife's...

Just fyi, even though its a small update, it shouldn't cause any issues where data is concerned, and you can update a number of ways that will let you stay rooted. See my firmware thread in development stickies to get the fw or ota.
More importantly, the upcoming jb update will patch this update, so if you haven't updated you may miss the message.

Sorry about posting in the wrong spot. I have build UVLH2. I got a notification maybe a week or two ago but didn't update because everyone said it didn't really do anything. Are there significant changes this time around?

You'll need this update to get the jb.
No reason not to update....
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app

Well I was a little reluctant to apply the new updates for fear that they would mess something up or take away some feature that I enjoy. I applied one update because it added the brightness bar but it took away the search feature. I found a way to put the search back but didn't want to lose some other functionality unless it was worth it. So do you know if I have to go back and apply the previous update before I can apply the one that just came through?

Depends on what you've done to the phone since then. If you've modded, removed, added or replaced anything then you'll probably have to odin flash the stock build to get the update. But why do that when you can just odin the updated build!

Multi window update???

Im rooted and would like to know how to get the multi window without having to use a rom.
Anyway? Thanks

Pull up a chair and wait... it's not out.

I talk to a tech rep from tmo and she said the update is coming soon. The firm ware is XXALIJ, it should be here soon.

I was told by the rep to watch XDA - they'd get it first
FYI, although we don't have true multi-window, the video player will go in and out of full screen/small window playback, so you can watch a movie while working on something else. That's one thing I wanted to be able to do and was surprised I could do it now, while waiting for the multi-window update.

Are you serious? Just typical. Not even three days after i root. I knew this would happen lol.

Don't worry, someone will upload it, then just download it and use mobile Odin to install it and automatically root it at the same time.
