Sidekick LX Video OTA rolling out to everyone
If you hadn’t heard, it’s finally time for the Sidekick LX Video OTA to roll out to everyone. Over the last week or two the update has been slowly rolling out. The pioneer people that got the users should also receive a new update that brings them up to the latest version. So yes, it’s finally here guys. It’s rolling out randomly, not based on location at all. Good luck trying to guess when you’ll get the OTA. Just sit tight and we’ll all be enjoying the new video and browser goodness before too long.

I just called tmobile they said that everyone should get it by the end of august, I think this is bullshit, tmo os trying to get us to buy the 2008 or the tony hawk and they are going to keep pushing it back until next year, and im not going to buy the 2008 because 5 months later, a new one will prolly come out tmo has the crappies customer support, all they care about is making money
July 30th, 2008 at 6:39 am [ Quote ]
I agreed with you, mo1991.
Not just tmobile but every cell phones and text message portable companies care about is making money too.
I am stay with LX for a long long time at least 3 years before I can get a better one and this time it wont be from tmobile anymore.
July 30th, 2008 at 8:01 am [ Quote ]
I’m already pissed at T-Mobile enough. I could have sworn I payed $299 for my phone, so I went to pay my bill at the same store I bought it from and the phone was a hundred dollars cheaper. And the span of time from when I bought the phone and paid my bill was only 3 weeks.
So I hope they send my update really soon.

This **** is taking too ******’ long. T-Mobile needs to do something quick. I’m just concerned about the Web Browser, AIM & YAHOO!, & last but not least the ******’ video. I love how the iphone browser is. Can’t wait until my update gets here.

The OTA has to be sent out in waves. If you don’t ******* like that, go find another phone. Sending the OTA to everyone at once would be disastrous. You’ll all get your ******* OTA so stop whining like a bunch of little ******* ******* and learn some ******* patience.

I’m in Atlanta and I got my update yesterday. There are a lot of small things that were changed with the update. I noticed yesterday and today (some of the biggest things that I noticed) were: 1) Hangup sound when a call ends now changed to a 3 pulse sound. 2) After entering passcode, Privacy lock always stays on the screen for about 2 seconds, not as quick as before the update, 3) IM clients icon changed (new AIM logo and MSN messenger now Windows Live messenger with windows logo), along with AIM chatroom feature added in the menu. Email picture also different. 4) Empty Trash in main menu (to dump trash contents of every app), along with ‘Quick Find’, allowing you to search the entire phone for something. 5) Find feature in Address Book and SMS added. 6) When Menu button Cancel button are pressed, Sound Profile box is displayed along with an added brightness box. 7) Video, of course.
Redone Media Player. 9) I think More Settings were added, or atleast the names of settings were changed. An Alarm was also added in the settings menu. 10) Spellcheck was added (things spelled wrong are underlined red everywhere).
That’s really about it that I could find. I hope that helps.

to Mo and everyone else bitchin that cell phone companies only care bout makin money: obviously! all ANY company cares about is making money. that’s why you open a business- so you can make money…..would you open a business and invest millions of dollars in it just because you “really like helping people?” of course not. nobody with a half a brain would go into business for any other reason than to make profit. however, I’ve had every major carrier in the u.s. and I can honestly say tmobile has the best customer support. winning the last 8 j.d. power awards pretty much solidifies that theory. verizon sucks wang but not nearly as much as at&t (stands for *** tasters&ticklers).

Wow you all above (except for the admin in orange and those who makes sense) are really acting so unprofessional! Calm down guys!
I know how a lot of you feel on waiting for the OTA, I don’t have it yet either. But I have been a Sidekick User since I had my first Sidekick which was a Sidekick Color in June 2004. If my memory is right, I went through about 3 or 4 OTA updates. I had Sidekick Color, Sidekick II, Sidekick 3 and now this LX, and guys….all the above is NOTHING new, same reactions always happening, accusing of lies, and all that. Well this always quiets down in at least a month and 3 months at the most. Even if you had your Sidekick turned off for a year and missed the OTA update, and turned it on a year later you will still get the update, just the minute you turn it on! The reason why it is so slow is because there are many people owning Sidekicks, there are NO second that a device is not getting a update, there is a Sidekick Device being updated every second until every device that is updated! So guys relax…If you guys keep looking it will seem forever, a pot never boils while being watched….

i did that restart over and over thing and i got the update after 10 tries but the only problem is that it can only support 3gp files for video (which has horrible quality). and all my videos are in mp4, so when i convert them it gets worse. does anybody know how to get mp4s on the lx???

just restart it. if u do not get 1mb in 10 mins then keep restarting till u do. to be honest its best to do it from like 2am till 11am kuz thats when the servers be going fast
August 3rd, 2008 at 9:05 pm [ Quote ]
is it going to come up as Mb or as 1000kbs
August 3rd, 2008 at 10:11 pm [ Quote ]

Am I going to receive the update the first time I reach the 12.4 Mbs or will it take multiple attempts I’m confused 8(.

It’s now August 16, [&] still I have not received the update.. Oh well I honestly could care less..
Sidekick Slide users won’t get the update cuz t-mobile isn’t producing anymore of them since they didn’t sell well..
That video update to me doesn’t work for everyone, cuz it’s like you gotta wait to get connected to the network again [&] is it really speeding up the process or making your chances of getting the update slim to september ? Lol
I’m bored -_-

well its official…I finally have my update! (8/28/2008) and saying that the proccess was easy is an understatement! it was extremely easy!!! hit me @ slikom6 (aim) for instructions….I just turned off my LX, removed the battery, then put It back in and then took the memory card out…forget what you might here…but leave the sim card in there. taking it on won’t damage anything though. then when I turned my kick back on (wit the sim card out), my 7 went pusling like crazy and it would not stop…it was continuous! I left the MB to go to 12 and went to sleep @ 5am and when I woke up 7 it was ready..of course it may have been ready b4 then but I was asleep and didn’t know. it take a few min to update. all that’s stress for nothing!!

Anyone get a annoying voice mail that wont delete off your KickLx? I am deaf and need to use the buzz application of my phone so when i get txt msg I can answer it. I went to a T-Mobile Dealer near me and they couldnt delete it because I got the voice msg when I got the OTA and they said I am not the only one who has it. Anyone able to find out how to delete the voice msg?

Yo that new ota update is bull ****. Just a little video update how pathetic. I mean lame. I thought it was going to be way better. I thought that it would let you watch youtube. Like really kinda pathetic. Really people don’t expect much. Its crappy update. Only the truth.
