Its freaking Source Code! Not a ROM, or a ROM that has removed apks and pushed prebuilt apks form a nexus one into an update.zip!!
http://source.android.com/
sorry about the rant, i just don't want n00bs ignorantly throwing the acronym around for ROMs that aren't BUILT from AOSP.
I hope i put this in the right section Mods, i wasn't sure whether it should be in the Q&A because I already had the answer .
Please tell me you got an evo
What other news you got for the EVO community Darch? Did you say goodbye to the Hero, should we say welcome to ours

Probably not. But I would be really curious to see what happens if you claim the insurance and tell them that you "sold it"

or if you 'found it' sometime after the insurance had already sent you a new one -
Darch, just want to say I'm sorry about the mis-communication over the "get darch an evo fund", I felt like **** when you finally pm'd me
I think it's time we do it again. You would obviously be a tremendous asset to the EVO community and yahweh knows you deserve it!
Does anyone want to take on the charge? Should I do it again?
What say you guys?
*edit- not promoting fraud but I will say this: if you report a lost phone to asurion and get a replacement they do NOT blacklist the esn.. just saying
@darchstar: as AOSP is a software stack would it be acceptable to then say that all roms are built ON TOP of the AOSP system?
i am guilty of your claims and look to correct myself
Wasn't there a thread awhile back for a donation to buy you an EVO? I thought they reached the goal but I didn't follow it much past that really.

Yes, we raised the money. I couldn't get ahold of darch for like 2 weeks and like a complete asshole I assumed he had lost interest or decided to stick with his Hero. I didn't know how long I had to issue refunds without being charged a penalty and I didn't want to piss all the donators off
Again, I'm really sorry darch
I still got $30 on it if we want to do it again.
a update this week on a Update? lol
Im gonna say no. Its the 6th of oct. now and I believe sept.28th is when the Kies update hit and Tmobile said do not update, Information about a update will be posted in a week or Upcoming week I dont remember. Well, a week has gone and past and nothing.
I will say I bet, that by the end of this week, lets say Saturday night, there will still be no word on a update.. I for one am rooted and flashed Eugenes Twiz final so I dont need a 2.1 gps fix or what not, I want froyo. Even then though I doubt there will be any word on any update this week.
So, POLL.
Edit: Please dont respond with, why does every *****, blah blah be patient a update is soon. SOON IS NOT 1/4 of a DAMN year, Every other SGS has had a update, hell Captivate has a leaked FROYO rom. How long will people keep saying, keep waiting, we will have it soon.
EDIT: I post threads like this so it bites me in the ass and we get a update sooner. See, it worked. WE got a update before my timeline was up...
they'll give us froyo when people stop asking every 5 minutes.
So never.

and just like those, the trolls come out to ***** / complain about the thread even though their post gives the thread a bump. Got to love that logic
Ok back to what the thread is SUPPOSED to be about. Do I think we will get it? Nope, not while Galaxy Ss are still selling like hot cakes.
http://www.engadget.com/2010/10/06/samsung-galaxy-s-sales-surpass-five-million-world-domination-pl/
They have sold more than 5 million already and 2 million of that was in the US alone. Samsung is making money with the product as is so why throw a lot of money at development for a phone they have already sold?

True, great post by the way..
Thank god for eugene, bionix and the other devs or we would still have no gps....
If anyone thinks we will get a update I'm sad to say not gonna happen....
Just keep waiting guys were almost there (to 2012 still no update). Hell even the CM team is out getting drunk vs froyo for us.. Lol
Damn winmo got froyo working faster than a native android running phone...lol hd2

Oh well Okay then.
Lets all go look in our crystal balls and see if Samsung and T-Mobile are going to release the updates this week.
Well I don't have a crystal ball, but I gave my nifty 8-ball a shake and the ball says "no one on XDA knows, so this thread is pointless". Huh. Go figure.

I got the offical answer. HERE
i hope that they give us the froyo, especially now that phones that are built in with froyo are out in the stores and of course the galaxy tab too. i don't care if it's not this month or it will be by the end of the year, i just hope that they give it to us.
You know why they don't say anything definitive? Because if something goes wrong at the last minute and the deadline slips, they'll catch even more flak.
We can't make this go any faster. Nothing you say or do is going to make Froyo come out faster. Just go out and take a walk or something. Life will not end in the interval between now and Froyo.

Yea yea knew you would post in here, as the guy on page 1 said, don't keep bumping it. Plus I could care less what you or anyone thinks is a valid topic and I'm sick of people like you thinking you can, don't read move on plain and simple,i post what I want when I want as long as I'm not flaming anyone and don't need your approval...
Again what's your guess I'm sure you voted.....?
It is clear to me that both Samsung and TMO suck at updates but we will get Froyo for sure. Its not a question of "IF" but "WHEN."

They did give us a time frame on a update announcement..if they dont come through with even that they will catch flak..
by the COMPLETE lack of info from Google itself regarding Gingerbread?
No
10char
yes, this time it seems they were very tight since nothing has leaked out. a couple of pictures here and there but thats all.
It's kinda secrative and exciting all at the same time!
Heh, seriously, who cares? They don't HAVE to....the less info leaks, the more of a surprise effect it will have, meaning more publicity, public enjoyment (if it was well done) and so on...
I honestly don't care since I enjoy my Nexus every minute I use it! It still would be nice to get Gingerbread this week since it will bring new things, new fun, new everything

I thought your spam was concise and detailed enough so that it didn't warrant a concise and detailed response as to why Google is being tight lipped about their upcoming intellectual property release.
I think they were somewhat revealing at the I/O.
Whenever I start longing for gingerbread I just thank God I don't have a Samsung vibrant, they're still waiting for froyo which was supposed to come like a month ago. I'm just happy to have a Samsung so I avoid Samsung's proverbial "jerk around". By the time they get froyo we will he knee deep in gingerbread. Poor bastards

Android is supposed to be open. At least that is what I heard.
Also, developers might find information regarding future releases and resulting API changes useful, ahead of time.
quick someone leave their n2 with 2.3 installed on their dinner table and walk off casually so some bloke can pick it up and hook the rest of us up!
Google wants to know everything about everyone, but they hold their cards close to the chest.

I'm thinking the opposite. Maybe its real minor and unnoticable. This way we can't all ***** and moan before its released.

Open doesn't mean spread eagle.
Just saying hello I just got this phone, I came from the tmobile gs2. the tmobile gs2 was nice but this phone is sooo much better, cause of the exynos and much more development!!! glad to join the team!!
In that case, I'd like to warmly say ...
I hope this thread isn't a sign of things to come from your time here.

Well, I would like to say welcome, and glad you are happy with your new toy.

Congratulations on moving to the real sgs2 yo
Just be careful and don't damage it lol
This is a pointless thread that I would make as soon as I got a toy like this! Love my phone still and its been over 9 months. Phones never last me longer than 6 months. Congrats on the new phone
Welcome aboard fella. Enjoy your stay..Here you can get women, smoke cubans and above all have a sexy gorgeous phone named the Galaxy S2....Welcome to paradise

oh dont worry first thing I did when I got home was root it and try out codeworkx's cm9. Besides the little bugs I love it, cant wait till the official release!!! That was a big part of me getting the phone, it'll have ICS on it way before the tmobile gs2!!
Btw if you want to root.... its so easy on this phone
Enjoy
I have had this for 2 month on t-mobile and am very happy.
Well, the rest 100.000 of us here on the forums also got this phone. Now imagine if we would all create a new thread to express our joy. Wouldn't that be a cesspool? Just saying...
Yeah, good job, it's a nice phone. Take care of it.

Thats what i did after unboxing
Congratulations
First of all, congratulations on getting your new phone. I can only say that this phone is still one of the best out there, especially for the developments made for this phone (credits to the developers). For me, it was my 1st android phone. So, I had a pretty long time searching for what I can do to this phone to bring out it's inner capabilites. One of them, is to root your phone and install ROMs inside. Since I love to customize my phone, I feel that rooting is essential for me and went ahead to root my phone. If you are considering about rooting your phone, do take note that the warranty will most probably be void

Would anything change?
Instead of creating threads that we bought this device we just spam the CyanogenMod 9 thread and annoy the developers.
It wouldn't cause more useless posts, just different ones.

I received the i9100 as a gift and I use it on T-Mobile, and it sucks to be stuck in 2G. I love this phone to bits, but I'm looking forward to an upgrade so that I can hand this down to my girlfriend since she's on AT&T.

Actually it's my sister who got the ticket, but still ....
I was babysitting tonight
When my sister came by to get her son, she was waiting in her car and tried to call me 20 times; didnt work, so she had to come upstairs to get the kid, and got a 52 dollars ticket in the process - I live downtown so she had nowhere else to park
I am so going to go ******* on Rogers and force them to pay for that ticket
Or give me a free iPad
