A guy on the Verizon Android forum claims he spoke to HTC today and was told the Eris release was just days away, could be had via OTA or download from their website, and was gonna be...........2.0.
Man, will I ever be glad when the speculation is over.
Not true. According to "friends" in HTC, 2.1 is going to be released. 2.0 code was DROID specific in some ways (seeing as its not running well on ANY other phone). The motoDROID was kind of a test pilot for 2.x
LOL! Trust me...you don't have to convince me. I'm just constantly amused that anybody would believe something like that coming from one drone on the phone at a huge corporation. I already told him to believe it when it happens. Remember...the internet is a valuable source of bull****.
Ok, well color me shocked, embarrased, and dismayed. I just got off the phone with HTC and the young lady on the other end of the phone ASSURED ME that the Android 2.0 release for the Eris would be out before the end of this month! She did say that the phone would ultimately be upgraded to 2.1, but not before getting 2.0, and she could not give a time frame when the upgrade to 2.1 would happen.
Oh, the humanity!
Seems like every day there is some new rumor out there about what is happening with the "official update" for the Eris. I wouldn't put too much stock in what a "verizon sales rep" or an "HTC customer service rep" says. Until something official comes out it's all here say.

Ironically, that is almost EXACTLY what I said to the guy on the Verizon forum who posted this info. But I tell you, the girl I spoke to at HTC seemed pretty darn sure of what she was telling me. She insisted it was a concrete fact. There's only three weeks left in the month...pretty soon it will all be over but the shouting.
Guys leave these rumor threads at Androidforums where they belong. Lol
You guys just dont understand how frustrating this is for me.. one day we almost have 1.5 root.. then 2.1 is supposeed to come out.. then 2.1 is leaked.. then everything else haha

Returned my Eris yesterday
fwiw I returned my eris yesterday on day 30 and after I told the guy why I was returning it he told me that they had been given official word that the update was coming in the next week??? I told him that I heard it MAY be 2.0 and he told me that they specifically told them in the stores that it was going to be 2.1.
Guess we'll have to wait and see.

....at this point I am just making good on "what we have" and counting my blessings/creating some good stuff
The "real" 2.1 update is going to suck eggs anyway, until the devs here get a hold of it and make it right.
ANY date that you hear that isnt directly from sprint is inccorect. We dont have a date, other than second quater wich has just begun.

This will be followed by eight thousand posts saying "Just installed official Sprint 2.1 and now my phone is bricked. Please help?"
THAT'S when I'll believe it's really out.

Because when the "official" release comes, then the devs will be working with raw materials that have all the bugs worked out.
Personally, I think the official release is coming soon, and the devs are already working with it, but that's just a gut feeling. It would be cool to know for sure...
This just in... any release from Sprint is going to suck compared to what the devs here have given us already... we now resume our regularly scheduled awesomeness of dev ROMs

2.1 is coming!!!!
Wouldn't that just be a hoot
I love how the article says "Christmas is coming early", as if one Christmas and many months haven't already passed since HTC announced that 2.1 would be coming to the Hero.
I was browsing Samsung's Official Twitter & They posted this link: http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/29/samsung-says-all-galaxy-s-phones-will-get-android-2-2/
Samsung has mercifully confirmed at an event in New York this evening that all Galaxy S versions -- including the Captivate, Epic 4G, Vibrant, and Fascinate -- will be receiving updates to Android 2.2 Froyo later this year and offer compatibility with Flash 10.1. All of the devices will be shipping with Android 2.1 out of the gate, so considering that Froyo's already launched, we're sure there'll be no shortage of pressure to get the updates fast-tracked. Sprint says it won't be a long wait on the Epic, but otherwise, we don't have any time frames at this point.
So for the people who said "My cousins, brothers, dog said we won't get Froyo.." Well just Read & Weep

We already know we are, it's just a matter of when and since some people are so impatient or assume - since it was not released on Sept 23rd or during the first few days of Oct - then it won't come at all, but, like I said, they are impatient.

And of course we're getting Froyo, a pre-release build (JP3) was leaked quite a while ago.

Umm, didn't they say the behold 2 was getting an upgrade and it never did?
So I don't think them saying prior to release the Galaxy S will get an upgrade is gospel in any way as you seem to be putting it.
Still, I don't think there's more than 1 or 2 people here or really don't think we'll ever get 2.2.
It's just how long they'll take and the longer they take, the more people's trust they'll lose.
According to some sources, we are getting it in mid october. For GSM galaxy x's only.

you do realize thats only about a week away right? There is absolutely no way that we will see 2.2 in a week, 2 weeks, 3 weeks, fuk if ever.
If I could sell this I would so get a g2. Unfortunantly with the 2 for 1 sale tmobile is having, theres like 50 brand new in box Vibrants going for 300 so no way I can sell this thing at the moment....
O well, stuck I guess, but I put money that 2.2 does not hit this month, or next, or ever.

This is OLD info that doesnt really reflect any recent information. Since JUNE there have been alot of delays, and like I said in another thread, the galaxy s is still selling like crazy, so why would samsung put money into development when it doesnt have to? To please people who already gave them their money?
How about "to please their japanese customer base." Their Galaxy S phones just today hit the island of the rising sun today. They've sold 5 million of them thus far. They have no option but to upgrade us.
The froyo rom for the original Galaxy S is leaked alriady. Not to mention that Adobe has the captivate as one of the "coming soon supported devices" in their 10.1 supported mobile devices page.
ON the other hand, tmo might screw us over a little.

They don't have to give it to us. Its not gonna happen... Only way we get froyo is the devs here. I'm hoping eugene can make it happen. Screw samsung, tmobile and the cm team mainly WES...lol
Seriously as much as I'm pissed about not having froyo myself, it's not just us that got jerked around. If I remember HTC incredible users were being told froyo would be released for them in Julyish and they just received it in September. So if we were told September 23 which I believe wasn't specific to the vibrant then we should know it's not just us getting jerked around not just Samsung or t mobile.

There not high end enough, this is.....
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.

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?

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.

What does at a time really mean? Per hour? Per day? At 20000 updates / day, it would take 50 days for the first million updates. My guess I'd that if your froyo date us right, they'd need to push out updates a lot faster. Otherwise people would be getting froyo before the incremental.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
I think they push out 20,000 at a time but probably about 3-4 times a day or more. Also I think the update is regional

The point is not that anyone thinks you are "lying" about what you heard. The point is that there are countless posts across the Internet stating that Froyo is coming and when. And everyone has it on good authority from someone at Tmo or Samsung, etc. etc.
No one really cares about all the speculative estimates. It gets here when it gets here, period.
I can't tell you how many posts I've read where someone says, "My friend who works for Samsung says yada yada..." They have yet to be accurate. And even if they were based on fact the dates are subject to change. A good example is Samsung's estimate of a GPS fix coming in September for the Vibrant. They were 7 days late with that and Samsung posted that for the world to see!
The tmobile guy in my area said tmobile was getting the iphone this past june..... Another rep told me the hd2 was gonna be android... Dude, those reps dont know anything other than what u can read here. Trust me.

Why is Froyo in mid-November an unbelievable time frame? There's been numerous Froyo leaks for the generic Galaxy S, one for the Captivate, and a supposed e-mail between Samsung people that said Froyo was finishing testing. Mid-November makes sense. Do I expect it to be 100% in mid-November? No, but I woudn't be the least bit surprised if it was, it's not a crazy idea.

One of the reasons why is because samsung JUST released the JI6 update (which is still being distributed). If it were to be mid-november, they couldve just skipped the update (save the hassle & bandwidth cost) and went straight to froyo the next month. Don't get me wrong though, I would LOVE a mid-November (or sooner) release.

LUL! wut!?
So... I was finally able to talk my wife into updating her horrible mytouch 3g. The only thing she was willing to get was the mytouch 4g. No problem, seeing as how she cares nothing about tweaking or mod'n her phone. I am however a little surprised with her new phone. It came out of the box with 2.2.1, which makes it very snappy with a 1743 quadrant score.
Now getting to the point of this topic. We just came from our local T-mobile store buying the spousal unit a case for her new phone and while there I asked the rep...
Me: "So when can I expect to have 2.2 on my vibrant?"
Rep: "It's already out. My buddy over there has it already."
Me: "I know you CAN get it, but i'm referring to the official release."
Rep: "Ohhhh (puzzled look while looking around). It should be first quarter?"
I just thought this was funny while it transpired. What he secretly meant was 1st fiscal quarter which ends in just 4 days time. I know for a fact that he knows what he is talking about. (Laying the sarcasm on pretty thick)
Just thought I would share this. I hope no one jumps on this thinking I am posting that I actually received the update. Have a great evening all!

Yep, file with "i know a guy....".
I'm sure he had no clue what you even meant by 2.2.
The epidemic continues.
Froyo really might be near because the leaks are getting better and better. But i don't expect it to come less than a month.
Eh... let em bash away. I wasn't claiming to know any inside intel. I wanted to share a funny story ;-)
Dont see where it gets funny.

I found it kind of funny where the rep said it's already out, even though he knows there's been no Official release.
Notice something different in Kies mini. The firmware upgrade data was 2010-10-01. Now it becomes 2010-12-29, however it still says my JI6 is the latest version. Probably they're updating the file on server. Hope so...
Ehhh the rep was probably some high school kid that doesnt know squat. I love going into TMobile cause most of the reps are clueless.....its good for a laugh.

Mine, too. Goes back and forth between the "Firmware upgrade: 2010-12-29" date and then a "Firmware Version: Failed to connect to the model information server"
Something's up.

Very funny story, I bought a T-mobile manager's Vibrant from for my wife (If i got one she HAS to have one- trust me this makes life way easier) Anyway, he gave me almost the same BS until I started interrogating his line of BS....... Then "uh... i really don't know, i don't think any one really knows"...........THAT WAS THE TRUTH........... Love the Devs here if it wasn't for them we all would have to settle for the retail junk that they sell....... Funny Story though...........
