Default This is new ?? Wireless upgrade

So I was going to my apps in
options>advance
When I noticed something different. Wireless upgrade? To me it looks like we can now upgrade the OS straight from our phone? Anyone else see that...

I think you can only upgrade the OS if a newer one is offered by Tmobile.

Yes that's what its for. But it takes a lot longer that way and its only for official upgrades from your carrier.

Best way to upgrade the OS is to follow the forum sticky section for your phone.
Find the official OS upgrade file link (it might not be from your carrier .. so follow the instructions on the forum sticky).

Then download to your PC.
It is much easier to upgrade through the file's setup rather that the DM.

Yeah I figured all that but I already have 4.5 on mine from .81 OS I wanted to see if everyone else had it too. I wonder if or whenever tmobile releases the official 4.5 OS if it will affect it since I already have this one. I'm not looking forward to upgrading the OS again thru the comp. Hopefully this will be less steps. I would use the wireless upgrade out of curiosity. Lol.
