The download and installation that was just offered today, December 9th, took two hours. TWO HOURS!!!!!! And I had to enter all of my passwords!!! What a Crock of Sh---

My Windows computer does stuff faster than that.

BlackBerry is soooooo last year. Can't wait for the Verizon iPhone with LTE. Blackberry? I am so out of there!!!!

This should be merged into the other threads in the Storm 2 forum - pick your poison, though. Many complaints about this latest one.

Actually it was released right around Thanksgiving. I'm guessing you did the OTA if it took two hours, experienced users know to avoid that method. USB-cabled updates take about 40 minutes. Bye-bye!

If the computer term of such an instant is, PEBCAK, then what would the mobile equivalent be?

My last point before I think the mods should move this over to the other section, and other thread(s), one needs to understand these OS files are in the 100MB range.

I agree, the OS is a huge file to download over the cell network, even if you're near a better tower and average maybe 600-900kbps over the course of the download. Factor in also that the processor in your phone is weak and puny compared to a PC's processor, and it becomes understandable why the OS took so long to install OTA.

Next time, use a PC, and it goes much quicker.

You can downgrade back to a previous OS if you have a PC.
