Gingerbread 2.3.6 update for Nexus One. September 29, 2011

Posted by very in : Announcement, Google, News, Resources, Tech , add a comment

Gingerbread 2.3.6 update notification popped up on my Nexus One last night. Well to be honest, I am not sure when the notification arrived since I had not used the Nexus One for more than a week. According to the message on the Nexus One:

This OTA update will upgrade your device to Gingerbread 2.3.6. It contains important bug fixes and security updates.

Initially I was not able to update the phone because the internal storage was somewhat full. I had to move some applications to the SD card and uninstall some of them.

A quick query on Google, apparently some Nexus One owners are getting the update within the past week.

What Data Breach? I have Nexus One. May 18, 2011

Google is reportedly moving to patch a Wi-Fi Data Leak in Android. Android devices running Android 2.3.4 Gingerbread are not affected with the exception of Picasa http request.

To my recollection, there are less than a handful of Android devices running version 2.3.4 (and above) including Nexus One, Nexus S and Nexus S 4G. The upcoming Motorola Droid X2 will come with Android 2.2 Froyo.

Android Gingerbread 2.3.4 for Nexus One. May 4, 2011

I had the Nexus One off most of Tuesday evening. I turned it on 20 minutes ago and saw the update notification.

I was hoping for some new features for the Nexus One, unfortunately those new features are available only for Nexus S.

Speaking of which, I am using numbers of phones on AT&T network including an iPhone and Nexus One. I was thinking about getting a Nexus S and found out that there’s one that is compatible with AT&T network.

Woohoo! Installing Android 2.3.3 Gingerbread on My Nexus One. March 4, 2011

After a seemingly long wait that is actually a long wait I finally got the notification: Android 2.3.3 Gingerbread Over The Air update on my Nexus One.

After 43.6 MB of download later, my Nexus One started the installation.

The timing is pretty impecable as Apple has just released iOS 4.3 GM to Developers.

Thanks to the Wi-Fi hotspot feature on the Nexus One, I have Internet access on the road. Luckily AT&T has pretty good coverage where I am currently at right now. I have never been in this area before.
