everytime i check i get "check for updates not available at this time" who else is getting this? and what the heck does it mean?

Silver,

I am getting the same message, but assumed it is because I am out of town. I look forward to see if someone can confirm or explain, as well.

As it was told to me when my OG Droid was going from Eclair to Froyo, when you check you are sending a request to the server, which checks to see if the update is scheduled to come to you. If it isn't you get the "up to date" message. The one your getting is that the server is, well, unavailable to check. I've gotten it too, but it would be the "up to date" message when I checked again. On another thread, someone suggested a Force Reset to confirm the connection, I didn't have to.

how is everyones battery life after update? any improvements? I know before the update I was only getting 17 hours with an extended battery. Some report up to 40 hours with extended battery after update on extended...Is there any truth or confirmation to this?

It's going to depend how your phone is set up.

It's going to depend how your phone is set up.

And how you use it.

You all will probably get it soon. I downloaded it this morning. I love the camera improvements. It's noticeably faster when taking pictures and even opening the camera app is almost instantaneous.

Downloading now. Interesting it did not tell me update was available. Will post after it installs if I see any changes better performance. My phone is not rooted. I do hope it fixes the phone not coming back on line when not in use for a while. I have had my phone not come back but green light is blinking. Press button on top left and cannot bring phone back. Only way to get back on is to pull battery. Has happened about 3 times since I have had phone.

Anyone confirm if this fixes the known "Dissapearing Apps" problem I've been having when I move apps to the media area? I've been waiting forever for an update to fix this.

So, I just checked and the update is available. Should I:

1. unfreeze all of my apps/bloatware and unroot to download the update? Try to root after?
2. do the forever root thing and then unfreeze my apps/bloatware and do the update?

If I forever root will I be able to get future updates like Ice Cream Sandwich?

OK, I couldn't wait for an answer. I decided to go with the forever root method. I updated successfully and still have root!! Doing a Nandroid backup right now. Next I will refreeze bloatware and redo the WiFi Tether Hack.
