You will have to contact Meteor to see when they will upgrade you, we had to pester 3 for ages to sort it, thankfully it is worth the wait!

So far, it has made the phone very quick, and a few extra changes and the task manager is well worth it.. so glad to have the task manager!!

when i installed it, first I had no service with 3, restarted and all good.. glad all my apps were still there! The phone is definately a hell of a lot faster... shall try typing on it now...

Uuummm so I finally got the 2.2 update and now my phone won't boot up properly!!!

It gets stuck on the shiny Galaxy S screen and vibrates every minute or so. I tried a hard reset, I tried taking out the battery and turning it back on but it still won't work!!!!

Im f**king panicking here!

Mine did that, did you take the USB cable out? Mine eventually came back on.. and I had to restart it twice (as first time couldn't make calls!)

Yeah I took out the USB when it was finished upgrading. This is very stupid. Isn't an upgrade meant to make something work better?

As of yet it still hasn't done anything other than buzz sporadically. Did you have to reboot it a few times?

I freaked at first because it wouldn't appear with the homescreen, then it worked (but then no calls would work so I restarted and all ok since then)

What network are you with?

3. I'm not even getting as far as the home screen. Its very unsettling. The glowing galaxy s logo just stays there for like two minutes and then the screen goes blank.

I've rebooted it about 4 times now and nothing is happening. I'm afraid something might be very wrong.

I would drop over to the 3 section of boards, Patrick is on right now:

Doesn't sound too good, mine did that, the screen went off and I just left it and it came back luckily.

Yeah hopefully it'll just sort itself out. Its sitting on the desk vibrating every so often so something is happening I hope.

OK! Huge sigh of relief. Went into recovery mode and did a factory reset and all is right with the world. Now I begin the unenviable task of setting up all my accounts again, reinstalling apps and getting my homescreens the way I like them again. Gah!
