Jan 22nd and Dec 11th were in a Verizon PDF meant for employees about problems with the Eris, when they would expect a fix, and any current workarounds. The OTA update pushed out now is the Dec 11th update, which is mainly bug fixes (and there were quite a few more listed than this dressed-up PDF in the original post) and the Jan 22nd update was mainly features, basically saying that was when the Eris would get 2.0 (or maybe even 2.1?)

I'll try and find the PDF again, it was quite useful.]]>Dec 10th 2009 1:13AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/09/first-droid-eris-update-makes-the-slow-ota-rollout-starting-toni/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/09/first-droid-eris-update-makes-the-slow-ota-rollout-starting-toni/Dec 10th 2009 1:59AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/09/first-droid-eris-update-makes-the-slow-ota-rollout-starting-toni/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/09/first-droid-eris-update-makes-the-slow-ota-rollout-starting-toni/just roll out android 2.0]]>Dec 9th 2009 11:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/09/first-droid-eris-update-makes-the-slow-ota-rollout-starting-toni/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/09/first-droid-eris-update-makes-the-slow-ota-rollout-starting-toni/
Agreed. But in all honesty, I'm loving my Eris]]>Dec 10th 2009 12:18AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/09/first-droid-eris-update-makes-the-slow-ota-rollout-starting-toni/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/09/first-droid-eris-update-makes-the-slow-ota-rollout-starting-toni/Dec 10th 2009 12:08AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/09/first-droid-eris-update-makes-the-slow-ota-rollout-starting-toni/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/09/first-droid-eris-update-makes-the-slow-ota-rollout-starting-toni/Dec 10th 2009 12:33AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/09/first-droid-eris-update-makes-the-slow-ota-rollout-starting-toni/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/09/first-droid-eris-update-makes-the-slow-ota-rollout-starting-toni/

AFX...

Clarify?

I have the eris.battery life is killing me .all i want is the battery fix,can give 2 shits about 2.0]]>Dec 10th 2009 1:06AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/09/first-droid-eris-update-makes-the-slow-ota-rollout-starting-toni/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/09/first-droid-eris-update-makes-the-slow-ota-rollout-starting-toni/
Unfortunately, battery life issues seem to plague many HTC offerings.

I hope that something can be done to improve the situation via firmware.]]>Dec 10th 2009 2:12AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/09/first-droid-eris-update-makes-the-slow-ota-rollout-starting-toni/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/09/first-droid-eris-update-makes-the-slow-ota-rollout-starting-toni/Dec 10th 2009 2:26AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/09/first-droid-eris-update-makes-the-slow-ota-rollout-starting-toni/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/09/first-droid-eris-update-makes-the-slow-ota-rollout-starting-toni/

This update will hold me over til then anyways.
Besides, I sqeezed 20 hours out of my battery today..with constant texting and an hour phone call.]]>Dec 10th 2009 1:06AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/09/first-droid-eris-update-makes-the-slow-ota-rollout-starting-toni/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/09/first-droid-eris-update-makes-the-slow-ota-rollout-starting-toni/second isssue is that when the screen is off and a new call comes in, it has a delay. I've looked at the phone, press the "end key" to turn on the screen, the backlight turn on, but nothing on the screen, around 3 secs later, i see that i hung up on a call.
Those with the Eris, do you have the same issues.. or "features" as they are called by the manufacturers?]]>Dec 10th 2009 1:02AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/09/first-droid-eris-update-makes-the-slow-ota-rollout-starting-toni/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/09/first-droid-eris-update-makes-the-slow-ota-rollout-starting-toni/The menu button thing when you press end to wake the phone up, happens to me. I hate it.

Suggest you move from where you live as the better alternative.]]>Dec 10th 2009 1:32AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/09/first-droid-eris-update-makes-the-slow-ota-rollout-starting-toni/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/09/first-droid-eris-update-makes-the-slow-ota-rollout-starting-toni/
I've had my Eris for about 3 weeks now, and haven't experienced either of those issues. The menu button is touch sensitive instead of a clickable button like on the Hero, so it isn't functional until the screen is unlocked. It seems like if my phone is out, the screen being lit up with call info draws my attention before I hear it ring. Otherwise, the info is usually there when I pull it out of my pocket after I hear/feel it ring.]]>Dec 10th 2009 10:37AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/09/first-droid-eris-update-makes-the-slow-ota-rollout-starting-toni/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/09/first-droid-eris-update-makes-the-slow-ota-rollout-starting-toni/

It's not 1.6.

Why would they give us 1.6 when we're getting 2.1 in January?]]>Dec 10th 2009 6:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/09/first-droid-eris-update-makes-the-slow-ota-rollout-starting-toni/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/09/first-droid-eris-update-makes-the-slow-ota-rollout-starting-toni/Dec 10th 2009 9:07AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/09/first-droid-eris-update-makes-the-slow-ota-rollout-starting-toni/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/09/first-droid-eris-update-makes-the-slow-ota-rollout-starting-toni/
This has NEVER been the case with VZW. *228 option 2 updates the PRL (preferred roaming list), all that does is makes sure your phone knows who to roam off of in what location when it cannot find native VZW towers. And it only needs to be done once every other month, if that as the PRLs do not change that often at all. In a lot of places, the same roaming agreements have been in place for several years so even if you missed doing a *228 in a while, chances are it wont matter to your particular service. ]]>Dec 10th 2009 4:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/09/first-droid-eris-update-makes-the-slow-ota-rollout-starting-toni/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/09/first-droid-eris-update-makes-the-slow-ota-rollout-starting-toni/Dec 10th 2009 10:44AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/12/09/first-droid-eris-update-makes-the-slow-ota-rollout-starting-toni/http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/09/first-droid-eris-update-makes-the-slow-ota-rollout-starting-toni/
