i keep hearing the gb update is out and all i get when i try to update is check for updates is unavailable.  ive checked some of the settings like a few posts here have suggested and it still says the same thing.    i cant get anyone from verizon to answer me back about my question.  ive got a droid x2 and i am not rooted, its all factory.  can anyone help me out here?

It gets pushed out to different areas and phones at different times. You just have to wait for it. Same thing happened with the GB for the Droid X... It was pushed out in June of this year, and some people are JUST now getting it.

It may also be that you have it already.

Android version 2.3.3

System version 4.5.605.MB810

Just go to System>About Phone and scroll down and check.

Personally I think that they pulled back .602 after they realized there were problems, and pushed .605 back out when it was ready.

I have no inside knowledge that this is the case, but the way there was a lull in complaints about updates, and then all of a sudden a rash of complaints recently leads me to beleive that it was not available for a while if one didn't download it when it first was available.

That could very well be. In any case, though, I think a LOT of people need to learn how to use the "search" function on these forums. The sudden surge of new posts about that old issues from GB back in June are extremely irritating, when you can literally take 10 seconds to search the person's issue, and reply to their new post with a link to that old post, and get a response of lashing out for it.

i think you are very rude.  i did search.  the stuff i found was no help.   if you dont like all of these "new posts"  than dont read them.  pretty simple.

With all due respect, I don't think vereyezuhn was referring to you specifically, but rather just commenting on the previous poster's comments about the late delivery of GB to yet another apparent wave of customers. And honestly, I have to agree that many of the newbies (don't take offense to THAT) here Might actually benefit by using Search before posting ...  In your situation you did so and were unable to find a solution; cool ...

So are you still having the problem? There could be serval reasons for that: 

- What is your current System Version?  (Settings / About Phone)

- You may not yet have been included in the latest group to receive it.

- Are you trying to do this over WiFi ?  A lot of people earlier on said that could NOT get the update via WiFi.

- Settings / Battery & Data Manager / Data Delivery -- are all 3 options turned ON ?

Just some ideas that hopefully will get you going.

I'm sorry but their are a few on this form who are rude most the time and a lot of time the search does not help.That's the reason float most the time to find my answers but very Sheldon ask one for that I go to other forums.

No, no, no! That post was not directed toward you! I thought about putting that, but I thought it might have been clear enough that it was toward a general audience. YOUR specific question, I don't think, has never been asked on these forums. I'm sorry if you thought that was directed toward you, I was simply replying to what the other poster said.

That's the way I read it ...  +1
