I've been waiting patiently, but haven't gotten any notifications about an update. I live in the Chicagoland area if that means anything. When I manually search for the update, it keeps searching for it to no avail. I called Sprint a few weeks ago but the worthless agent told me to wait. WTF where is it, its August already!

Is your phone rooted? If not root your Android 2.2 device with unrevoked. Then I suggest you install Rom Manager from the market, you can use that to install a custom recovery. I recommend that you install the "alternate recovery." Once your alternate recovery is installed, go to Shipped ROMs to download Shipped ROMs

You can install it with your custom recovery.

If you need more details about any of the steps I covered briefly, it has been covered many times in the past in various postings, by myself and others.

Now, most will just flame you for not searching before posting. Here is that flame: Search and you will find more detailed info.

Re: WTF whwres my Gingerbread update??

The big question is why would you want the OTA update instead of just rooting your phone and using a custom 2.3 rom? I would love to trade places and not have the OTA update and be able to flash custom roms right now, but it is what it is.

Like the previous post said just go to unrevoked.com and root the phone, install the custom recovery, create a nandroid and then flash a custom rom, you'll be way happier without all that bloatware.
