It's JH7. They have no idea what version you are on.

I've got a couple messages from them about an update...then i think it tries and just comes up as "unable to connect to server" everytime.

Are we sure its JH7? I received the OTA JH7 over 2 weeks ago. Unless they are resending it due to so many failed updates?

I got it, too. I'm on Cognition 2.1.

Yes, it's JH7. They are doing a slow roll out with the SMS message. They have no idea that you might have already updated.

OTA update prompts, even after JH7?

I manually installed JH7 from this thread It has worked for over a week now.
This morning I got two text messages from ATT stating press Ok because my phone is getting a "free update".
It keeps failing. Is this a separate update, or does it still want to install JH7?
So far the only update ota is JH7. I would assume because you didn't get an upgrade from their server, either ota or mini kies, you are getting this message.

as did i? maybe something is in the works?
Did yours install properly?
no, same error.
Got two messages in the last hour, from different ATT #s

Laggy after ota update

Twitter is all abuzz saying the mt4g is laggy after a OTA update. Mine seems to be running fine.. can anyone else confirm of deny these reports? Thanks and aloha from Hawaii
I'm almost sure you're poting this in the wrong section, but anyway.... My phone seems to be fine after the update. Tell you the truth I'm even getting a better Quadrant score after I got it.
My phone won't even update. I have the notification in my pull down but when I click on it, it doesn't do anything. Anyone else getting this?
Mine is just fine after the update.

Thanks for that. I hate it when the simplest of things evacuate our heads
WOW, can someone who already got the update please post the url. Thanks, it would be nice to update my phone too...
Just got the OTA update and haven't noticed any weird lag.
The first major thing I noticed, it looks like its a 2.2 -> 2.2.1 upgrade. Not sure what else has changed/been fixed.
I'm getting a lot more lag since the update. And after restarting...
It's looking a lot smoother. Hopefully it stays like this!
I know it fixed the double bar in the browser. I dont know what else though.

Woohoo, got the update overnight, but no noticeable lag. I do feel like my data is faster for some reason.
runs good for me
still no update.. got my phone yesterday at around 11am. did the *#*#checkin#*#* and nothing. ideas?
no lag after the update here. it did upgrade to the latest version of android, from 2.2 to 2.2.1
got the update last night, no issues here though it seems to run smoother

I normally keep my phone with wifi on at home overnight, but because updates don't come through wifi (cell data only), I'd recommend leaving your wifi off and doing that checkin one more time.

[Q] different name showing up when received text message

hey i've notice that whenever i received a text message, there would be times where the it would say that the message is from another contact in my phonebook. when i click on it, it would tell me that its from the person that did sent it. for example....
josh texted me a message, and when i slide down the notification bar it could say brett, then when i click on it, it would take me to the conversation i had or having with josh
do you guys know what i'm talking about?
Are you on froyo?

This happened to me a few times before updating to JH7, but hasn't happened since.

Has happened to me as well on a stock JH7 captivate.
This happened to me a lot when I first got the Captivate...turns out that I had some random contacts linked together, and once I took care of that it never happened again. It doesn't sound like this is the case with you, but I'd say just check it out in case.
i experienced that also before... im on stock jh7 right now. i noticed that when i ran task killers and terminating the messaging app it would mess up my messaging when receiving sms.
i tried excluding the messaging app from the task killer and everything worked fine ever since. try it it. might help you.
I'm on JH7 and am still getting that. I did have task killer, but I uninstalled it. I've checked all my linked contacts and they are properly linked. So I'm not sure what else is causing this.

GB OTA in Arizona

Has anyone in Arizona received the GB OTA update yet? I used the LG tool, but my wife's has still not updated. Same goes for a few friends with the G2x.
Yes i live in phoenix and i got the OTA GB update on 7/27/2011
I did a manual check for updates and i got it.
not even sure if they are still rolling them out, cause of all the complaints and issues still. do this *#*#2432546#*#* that will check you in for the update, and you can go see if it's starting to download or not through the settings.
Thanks guys I'll try that.
EDIT: ok it checked me in, but I didn't notice anything else (although it told me that I had some apps that needed to be updated). Where do I find out in settings if it is downloading? I went to the about phone >software update and it is giving me the conection failed message. I used to get "upto date already".
Are you on a good connection or wifi? Can't remember if wifi messes with it or not haven't done an ota update since the g1... try on 4g no wifi.

I have tried both, but mainly 4g.

Text Bug still in EP4D

I don't know about the other people that have gotten the OTA (or did it manually), but mine still has the text message bug present in EP4P where the texting will just randomly stop and won't resume until you reboot the phone. Anyone else have this issue?
I had that happen to me for the first time ever last night. Really strange.
I've had text messages randomly fail to send, but I've never had to restart my phone to get it working again. I just wait a little bit and resend it and it goes through.
That has happened to me on every GB leak from ep1w and on, including gunny charged and humble.
Every once in a while every message fails to send, and when i retry, it immediately says failed within 1 second of pressing send like it isn't even trying. The only way to fix this is rebooting.

I would def. contact Verizon about it. I have never had that problem with mine. Occasionally it doesn't send and it sends when I resend. But never until I reboot.

Is everybody using the stock Messaging app?
I use ChompSMS exclusively, and I have never seen this problem on any ROMs I have run, including the latest Hiumble GB ROMs.

I use Chomp and Google Voice (for new contacts) and have never had the issue either.
Weird I had mine happen for the first time yesterday.
