I called my store in Bowie, MD. I asked the guy if they had V06. He said, "Yes we have it. Come on in and we'll upgrade your phone." He even checked the computer too. I went to the store, and of course they didn't have it. They guy i talked to on the phone came up to me and apologized and said it should be here within a week. I was so mad i had to drive up there for no reason.  Angry

Yeah this seems to be a common occurrence. I think what is happening, is they have a memo in their system ABOUT the update, possibly about it being released soon, but when they go to actually update your phone, they don't see the update. Just my guess.

what about the guy on page 10. "angiulo"  said he was going in tonight to get it done and would let us know whats up.  he obv. did not get it done.  the reps are mentally challengeds and they dont even know how to look it up half the time. its pathetic.  everyone is freaking out.  this is just my opinion, but  i feel like all the new version is going to fix is the scroll issues.  i  also feel that this will be the last udate for this phone and then it will be ancient history like the voyager.  the one thing i want to be fixed in scrolling on aim on my cell.  does ne one else have a hard time when scrolling thru there buddy list? like is to sensitive and glitchy.  slides like all the way to the top or all the way to the  bottom.  this is one thing i hope the scroll issue is fixed for. 

if ne one else is having that scroll issue in aim please let me know. tomorrow is my 28 day with the cell.  i want to get a new one if mine is just not wokring b4 my 30 days are up.

I did not make it out to the store tonight.  I had some issues at work where I had to stay late.  I might try to do it on my lunch tomorrow.  If not it is going to have to wait until the weekend.  I will let you know either way what happens.  I didn't forget about you guys!

Ok, it looks like version 6 may officially be out.  I called my local store and they have it.  I'll know for sure in 30 minutes, the rep is going to update his Dare and call me back to confirm if it updates to version 6.

Also, these are the changes according to a poster on HoFo:

I see that poster says Page 1 of 3.  What do the other 2 pages include?

I'm locking this thread until we have confirmed v06.

Da Dare Dude, as soon as you get the update, please post here. Any other mods are welcome to post their findings while the thread is locked.

Until then, we're just wasting space with more discussion about something that does not yet exist to our own knowledge. Howard Forums has not confirmed it either.

Thread unlocked.  The rep called me back and confirmed he now has version 6 on his phone.  So it has officially been released. 

Before you rush to your local store you should call them and confirm they have it also.   I'm not sure if the update has been pushed to every store nationwide or only to select stores.  (For those who remember, when version 5 first came out it was only available in certain areas.)

Might want to change the title from "Version 6 May Soon Be Available (Still Not Confirmed As of 1/27)" to "Version 6 May Soon Be Available In Your Area (Confirmed As of 1/29)".

[Thread title changed.  Thanks. - 3D]

Wow.. if that list is true, this update seems practically worthless for most of us. There are "fixes" to things i have never read about, yet simple issues remaining with the MP3 player and Camera remain....  Way to go VZ..  Embarrassed

If you mean FOTA, than no, it cannot.  You will have to take your phone to a verizon corporate store and have them update the firmware.

I was at a circuit city and they have those little posts where you can basically buy verizon phone and all that.  I asked the guy if he was able to flash firmware for my phone he said no i said thanks anyways.  So i kept walking around and decided to come back by and look at some phones and he noticed that i had the dare i guess and asked about the update and then checked the computer and he read me the memo they got saying that the version 6 update would be available 1/29/08 and read me the list of the updates that it would be having.  They just would not push the updates to that actual store because it was just a small post.  so idk if that means anything for you guys.  just thought i would let you guys know about that.  the update does not seem to great to me.  if it was significant i would rush to get it
