The images the gentleman posted actually made me doubt it more as they were instructions on how to upgrade the Touch Pro, not the TP2. Also the memo seemed like something I could put together in Photoshop in a few minutes, and the wording just seemed like things we would want to hear, not things they would actually say. I dont know, I hate to be a skeptic, but I consider myself more of a realist. I just think if they had a firm date, it would have benefited them more to announce it, not just send out an internal memo.


Awesome, let's not ever question anything. How does that work in your utopian little
world?

Two days later and two days until the release date and only ONE person has actually had access to this document?

I find this very hard to swallow at best. I was a bit skeptical at first, but I am even more skeptical now.

Hey - I'm not the one getting frustrated in my utopian a little world questioning stuff that is not under my control.

So when it comes out this weekend - you'll apologize to the OP?
Probably not.
Sweating the details is for little people who take & run.

I totally agree.

I am also excited to hear of a 6.5 stock update coming soon. But guys 23 pages that had to be cleaned? I just could imagine.

Lets have more respect and enjoy the site.

And if true... I for one will get busy with what I do...

I respect the warnings from the MODS about attitude, but I thought I would post the chat log from this morning with online support.

Please take this for what it's worth -- a chat with an idiot at Sprint.

as a long time sprint user, it's been my experience that the fine folks at sprint know much less about what's going on than the people here.

the problem here is yelling fire in a crowded movie theater...the op still after 2 days has not shown anything concrete and yet its still front page news. perhaps this should have been investigated futher before once again putting the reputation of the site on the line...this isnt a court of law no one has to wear a sportcoat to enter...this is a public forum and people should be allowed to call a spade a spade

They know plenty. It's the fine print below the information like what accord posted that draws the response above:

*Do not tell customer anything about this update. Update information is for internal use only and subject to change. If you do tell the customer any useful information, you will be fired immediately. We have systems in place to know when/if you let anybody know the real information. If this information was to get into the hands of the infidels, just imagine what kind of widespread panic that would cause. If someone refers to any leaked information about our products, whether true or not, you are instructed to deny that information and to mislead them as you see fit. You may give them unncessary information or send them to software/information links that have nothing to do with their product in an effort to subvert their attention. All together now...HIGH HITLER!

Why would one call a billing specialist (which is what E-chat usually is for) to talk about a technical update?

Re: Remember 3-19-10 ...
 
I had two posts among the 23 pages, and they weren't garbage as I recall what I wote, and there were some other constructive ones too. So please do not generalize.Thxxy

Yea I would take a guess that their OS Build will be somewhat older than the custom roms here & except for the Radio, we would be lucky to have any usefull modifications to use & put in a custom rom, because Sprint is so lax and careful about updating anything new.

Just dont get hopes up too high, and then you will be better off.

if the update were to not come on the said specified date....can the stoning then commence? hehehehe...j/k. i kid...i kid.

i guess regardless of what we think of the post, we have to take it with a grain of salt. because we won't really know how it's going to pan out until that date.

themuffinman 03-17-2010 12:17 PM

Re: Remember 3-19-10 ...
 
Like I said a few pages back, the OP has been a member of this site longer than most of you. Why not just give him the benefit of the doubt until otherwise can be proven. I mean seriously if it was a mod that created this thread with absolutely no pics would there be as much flaming?

The OP has been a member of this site for 4 years and doesn't have the highest post count or rep which tells me that he has better things to do with his time than to create some rediculous thread just to get a reaction out of people. Also remember even if sprint officially released a date, does it mean that its guaranteed to happen on that date? Everything now a days have a disclaimer stating that dates are always subject to change.

In anycase I hope sprint does something really good with this update. If not and its just a standard 6.5 update, what the hell have they been doing this whole damn time?

- As a long-time Sprint customer, your experience does not surprise me in the slightest; in fact it's what I would have expected. The average CSR has access only to what is in the system that they use. And Sprint's systems are not well integrated. The billing system your CSR used would not have the kind of info you are looking for in it and wouldn't be integrated to a system that does. The first-line CSR you talked to isn't the problem.

Re: Remember 3-19-10 ...
 
Personally Im finding this thread degrading down the same path again and by mostly the same people...

The threadstarter posted his info, if its accurate and at some point during the 24 hours of Friday its released then great you people all get in line and put on a generous amount of lip balm and get to work on making him happy (better have a beer and a steak with ya too)
If during the 24 hours it doesnt get released, so be it then, Sprint/HTC has every right to change or outright drop the release if and when they want to and not when YOU want it, its certainly not like 90% of the posters and readers even are going to use the stock ROM anyway and are waiting on ripping it open to pull out pieces for custom ROM integration of the parts anyway.

IMHO Mods, dump each response leaving only the first response and lock this thread outright - leave the info there to be read and taken with whatever personal thoughts and a grain of salt each reader has and be done with this and the net trolls looking for crumbs to feed on and we all can just patiently wait until the end of Friday to see if it happens or not.

If it doesnt pan out, find out why .. if it is the misinformation posted or if Sprint or HTC pulled a delay but in either way this is hardly a constructive or needed debate/thread.

I just can't quite understand you guys. We try to get let threads go on and let you guys constructively comment on the topic at hand, although it just seems like you guys can't help yourselves to turn EVERY SINGLE DEBATE into a flame war. This one is over!

BTW! MightyROM WAR is 100% compatible with Sprint and was released well before Sprint will ever release their update :) Hey.... Just sayin'!

Don't believe it unless you see it.............

Spoke to a Sprint Store, online Sprint Rep chat, Sprint 1-800 Customer Service, all parties reporting that if the update was tomorrow there would of been a press release, much like the one for the Nexus One that was posted yesterday............
