Is your error (-19)? If that is the error then stop syncing the phone, unplug it and plug it back in. Then cancel the sync and wait for it to stop syncing. Then try to update again.
Got a tip for us?

iPhone 2.2 is out...

I'm not sure if you are talking about a hardware unlock or software one. Read http://blog.iphone-dev.org/ for software unlock details.
Basically, wait until PwnageTool is updated before moving to 2.2. And if you are on a 3G iPhone definitely do NOT upgrade yet if you want an unlock, as they were slowly getting closer to that but only for 2.1 baseband, not the new 2.2 one.
Keyboard Issue
So I realized after the update that on my keyboard when in safari the H key won't pop up.. like the rest of them.. but I can type.

So i just got home and tried out the new street view on google maps, let me say that its the coolest new update. It is really sick on this phone. Kudos to google.
This is a "no brainer" in my opinion.
How does someone jailbreak and think a newly released non-jailbroken firmware will be jailbroken? downloading now hope it is as awesome as everyone says!!!! (I hope in the future the iphone could update itself without the need for a computer)
I've been running 2.2 since it came out last night. So far so good. It feels about the same to me in terms of speed. I'm at work right now and tried using the Locate Me feature in Maps and it's off by about 5 miles. I use to never get GPS location at work but it would at least triangulate within a 1/2 mile radius or so, but now it's just off by 5+ miles. Not sure if it's something to do with 2.2 or just the iPhone being retarded. Safari has yet to crash on me which is a plus and hopefully it stays that way.
The additions to Maps are great. I never ride the bus but that Transit and Walking route is very useful for some people I'm sure. Kind of disappointed to not see Push/Background service offered yet for apps along with copy/paste. MMS, not a huge issue in my opinion but you would think that the iPhone could support such a basic feature. Dying technology or not, it's still used quite a bit and it is annoying when you can't receive them from friends.
Overall, not a bad updated but nothing ground breaking. Always good to see security fixes and stability improvements.
On a side note, some of you are using 3rd party apps crashing as a way of measuring the iPhone OS stability. Stupid if you ask me. If Facebook crashes, that's a problem with Facebook that the Facebook team needs to fix.

i really do like the fact that the iphone is update"able" which is why I am patient because with a lot of phones you buy it and thats all you will ever get. its stagnent.
update your itunes to the new 8.0.2 and then you will get the update.
I had the same issue, and finally went in to itunes itself and selected check for update and it updated to 8.0.2. then when that was complete the iphone 2.2 update was there.
This is a "no brainer" in my opinion.
The jailbreak should be out in 2-3 days, as usual...
I wonder if it's a coincidence that they released these new features on the same day that the BlackBerry Storm came out ? Guess what? A Blackberry storm can not stream Podcasts or display Google Street View or access Apple's App Store over 3G or WiFi.
I think Steve Jobs knew what he was doing.

USE iPhone e-mail to send photo to friends MMS
http://iphone.macworld.com/2007/08/sending_and_receiving_mms_on_y_1.phpWhy would AT&T have a restriction on MMS? They don't have one for any of their other phones. Please show evidence for MMS being a dying tech, if anything it's becoming more popular as more and more phones come with cameras and video capability.
Video is not the only component of MMS, and if Apple was that concerned about battery life, why would there be Maps, games, Cover Flow, 3G, wifi, etc? Actually if they really wanted to conserve battery I'm sure getting rid of the huge screen would be the #1 priority.
I was running iTunes 8.0.1 when the update showed up for me. I still downloaded and installed 8.0.2 before installing the update just in case.
What does "Reset Location Warnings" do ?????????
settings\general\reset
.
I haven't used it, but I assume it resets all the warnings for each program that they are trying to use your GPS. That way if you said to allow it for one but you change your mind, you can switch it without deleting and reinstalling.
I read over the article...but it doesn't specifically mention anything relating to what is mentioned in this thread. Where in the act does it relate to this situation?
Edit: NM, somebody already explained it in a previous post.
I think this means that it will reset all the warnings that the application you are using wants to use your location. Like the warning in the image below.What does "Reset Location Warnings" do ?????????

Thanks. I guess I can take my chances with Facebook not working. It's a mega time waster for me anyway, so if it does become unstable it'll basically be doing me a favor. Updating in progress... I hope this works.
Help - Verifying updated iPhone software....
and verifying... and verifying... it's been over an hour. All prior updates were easy. When do I start to worry? Can I just disconnect and start over? (conventional wisdom say 'absolutely NOT!') Any suggestions?
