    Okay. I don't think it is suppose to take this long. I don't know if I should pause download and do a battery pull or to just let it go? and thoughts?

    unfortunately I'd say it's normal my total is at 3hrs and 30min right now and I'm at 90% and it's been there for about 20min. I'll get back to you if it starts to move or I hear otherwise

    Earlier today I tried using the DM. I got a error message that i have BES and to contact the server manger to update. One prob. I don't have BES. So I am doing the OTA. Seems there has to be some sort of glitch with these storms. My wife never has an issue with her curve. So here I sit and wait.

    I see now alot of people are using the OTA way. Probably bogging down the servers.

    Yeah I've been dl'ing OTA since around 8ish. Its now midnight..seems to be stuck on 90%...
    I believe most of the time I was on 1X but now I'm back to 1XEV and its making me think it might be frozen.
    I hope not.
    I'm really not wanting to start all over.
    And I dunno if I can find my DM disc to take to a friends cause I have no internet or computer at home.
    Grrrrr.

    I live near a big city so it doesn't surprise me but I know its because of this OTA haha

    It's 7:30pm now, I started the OTA upgrade at about 12:30 and immediately got a "white noise" type picture on the screen...no indicators or anything. I can receive incoming calls, but no screen picture or other functions. Should I do a battery pull or ???

    hmmm

    I don't think it hurts to do a battery pull on the download itself as I dont think it installs anything until its fully downloaded..

    Thanks...

    I did a battery pull, it allowed me to resume the download, and now I have progress indicators, etc. It looks as though it is back to normal progress.
