Yeah I heard a few days ago that it was being extended, but didn't know until when exactly. Good to have a confirmation + date.
Followed the link which is just to the VZW twitter account and saw this...http://twitter.com/#!/VZWSupport/status/69445090493464577
So, more WiFI tether is sweet, but I don't like the sound of that. I'm going to say it's a bit of a bluff. How many stories have you heard of people unable to get a replacement be cause they rooted? I've never heard any.

I call BS on the tweet. Scare tactic at best.

As with other phones, if you're rooted, you still have the manufacturer's warranty through HTC.
Can anyone link to the details of the hotspot upgrade?
I can call bs on the trace your root bluff. Lol. Like this week. On two phones.

uh says who? Rooting/jailbreaking while legal, doesn't mean they have to warranty their product anymore, muchless verizon having to give you service anymore. Read the fine print, it is there, and has been posted in a couple dozen threads now.

[Q] what's the meaning of "txtng & drivng ... it can wait "

i do not really understand this, so some one can tell me?
Don't know if trolling or just clueless.
Is this a new campaign or slogan???
Confused about this post.

Yeah, just like I said in my previous post. Anyways, I'm kind of skeptical of doing this(on the off chance that you are a troll, btw your plan is foiled so this is a unsuccessful trolling) It means, don't text and drive, your text can wait until your not driving.

Okay sure thing man Sorry I am so defensive about being trolled, these current internet trends make you expect the unexpected
Texting and Driving
This should give you a better idea...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NMYKXSPgaIw
it's a new att tagline...it's on the back of their service trucks as well. Most likely triggered by the new laws most states in the US will be putting into place on the 1st of September.
ATT has a campaign going against texting and driving. Every phone you purchase from ATT has that on the screen film.

ChiefzReloaded Saying a G2x Update Came?

Ok so please don't flame me for posting another possible update thread. I don't know if anyone follows ChiefzReloaded on Twitter. He is an android dev I followed back when I had the MyTouch 3g Slide and he developed for that phone. He tweeted the following:
"Oh ****.... G2x update and I'm drunk... how do we pull OTAs again? http://yfrog.com/kjp9zkp lol.... sorry"
I'm not sure if he's just kidding with the being drunk comment in there. Check the screenshot though he tweeted.
Great, someone tell em to pass the update to a dev.
....
Maybe a test drive for developers?
I follow chiefzreloaded and I saw that tweet too!!!!
Hopefully is the real thing!

I would not consider this trolling. You've provided proof from a reputable dev and a screenshot. Whether its fake or not at least you provided a lot more than what everyone else had done.

I was on the phone with executive care at T-mobile this evening 6pm and they swapped me out for a sensation because they had no idea when the update would be released. I don't think they would do that if it was being pushed today.

In the Tmobile support forums, under the thread BBB complaint Success, he makes note of a BBB complaint followed up by Tmobile retention, or something. Supposedly in the conversation he says the agent told him Q4

And you all think a Dev received this over 3 hours ago and its not posted here yet? This would be gold for all G2X owners. Sorry I put as much faith in this as I do with anyone at T-mobile knowing anything about the update. Just anouther story to hold us over anouther week or two.

Because now Android and Apple users have to play with each other, only the Apple users are too childish and pathetic to share.
Awesome! Been waiting for this since HTC Flyer.
I can tell that you have been away for a long time Ricky
Personally, I try not to use the filters on instagram for my pics, it can muck up a real good HDR shot.

Yup. Why are there soooo many of these threads?? We ALL know that Verizon sucks with updates. Why do we need 10 threads basically saying the same thing? Honestly, no one who is on this forum should really care about carrier updates. Way before the carrier releases something, these is always a dev who ports it over from another carrier or the international verison.
Dont worry about updates when you're on XDA
