This mysterious invitation just popped up in our inbox, asking us to "come see what HTC has dreamt up 15 September." Could this be the fabled Vision or Desire HD? UPDATED
The use of the word "dreamt" intrigues me, not least because their first Android phone (in fact, the first-ever Android phone, period) was called the Dream. Or the G1, when sold exclusively at T-Mobile.

wake me up!! coz im dreaming for a dual sim or multiple sim HTC phone!zzzzzzz.........

Something like the Tosh K01 would be good but sadly (and i do mean that) running Android instead of Winmo. I don't want to keep throwing money away by buying WinMo apps.
I also hope the K01 specs on PDADB are out of date as it only has a 3.2mp camera and no HD capture (obviously). It does however have a 4.1" screen and a qwerty keyboard! YAY!

and the (small) hope continues..... only available in the US at the moment and the HD video recording needs serious work but..... the right direction still Samsung 4G Epic

thinner faster, more useable touch screen phone hopefully with a keyboard... another itm that i'll want and cant afford!

I think this is going to be a Windows Mobile phone announced on the 15th. Plus the G2 is going to be an American phone first.

the G1 signified Google, right?
why in the hell would the "G2" be a winmo phone?

He means the announcement will be about a Win 7 phone and not the G2 at all.

A very good friend of mine ownes a tmobile store and he did say a 2 gig phone is coming that is going to have a slide keypad but was not sure about android or windows!

Well if this phone is European it wont be sold running Windows Phone 7 till October 15th and in the US till mid November, One of my friends is the Head PM for Windows Phone 7 I confirmed the release dates the other day

Samsung Says they will have more Info on the T-Mobile OTA Next week.

Samsung Just Said it on their Facebook Page
I bet by the end of oct at the latest.

they said it on twitter about an hour ago, according to the tweet we will recieve an update on this situation as early as next week
honestly, i dont give a damn.... why even care? im rooted already... so...

Excellent, can't wait!!

Save yourselves the aggravation. I wouldn't be surprised if next week's info states that we will be receiving an update "soon".

I would rather they shut their mouth if there is no exact date

I'm going to agree. We'll just hear the same damn thing we've been hearing... an update is coming "Soon". That's all it ever is. T-Mobile told me via Twitter yesterday that they are working on it and want to make it "perfect"...

Man! I hope they are working on something better then "soon".
The dev, community here has fixed all my problems for me except the modem... if you are comfortable flashing roms and mods, it takes the wait and insessant delays edge off. They are so sloooow,... with there flagship device? Come on.

if the rumors of gingerbread being released in october is infact true, then i guess the vibrant can expect gingerbread sometime in march?

Im happy with JI5 for now
But all this delay I'm starting to think we might get surprised with a 2.2 update sooner than thought
But then again this is my first Samsung phone and all the talk about their history....IDK

Negative attitudes don't get you anywhere. Think positive its a good sign that they are a least going to tell us something.

And I am sure many of you will ***** and complain about a lack of communication by Samsung if they keep hush.

I am having so much fun modifying my rooted phone and 2.1 that I don't even notice how long it's taking to get any OTAs or 2.2 for that matter.
I think having owned a G1 taught me a lot of patience. The Vibrant is a great phone, yes it may have it's bugs but it certainly can be an everyday smartphone even without the updates.
Take your time Samsung/T-mobile, as long as we have devs and hackers that work hard to help out the community I will be patient.

in next two weeks....bla bla bla... they just going to say that they are working on something, and soon "soon" we will see something. After everybody smashing Tmobile and samsung, they had to reponse some how. I guess only time will tell.

Oh, wait, IT'S NOW OCTOBER. I guess what they meant is you could look for it in September, but what they didn't say is you wouldn't find it.

You people aren't going to be happy if they release it and its not ready. I would wait as long as it takes to get it and have no issues or less of them. You know if they release it before its good to go and you have some issues you will come back and complain. I would love to have it now just like everyone.

Verizon Statement on Froyo

Anyone else thinking its not going to happen?
They just started the iPhone hype so I'm pretty sure nearly all of their resources are going toward that.
AT&T will probably have an official statement first...

You honestly think that the iPhone release will take out all of their resources that they can't make a statement about the release or status of the update? Pondering things like these leads nowhere, that has become more than evident with all of these froyo threads. They are full of speculation and made up conspiracies because people are so absorbed by the thought of companies withholding froyo from them. Enjoy your phone, rom it and change things to your liking...when we get froyo, we get froyo. I really dont understand why people need to make endless threads about this.

They should make some sort of filter that prevents you from posting if Froyo is in the title... or heavy moderation, this is getting ridiculous.

This was a major let down! As the title states, I was expecting to read a public announcement on the update from Verizon. Total waste of time.

I dont really post much, but I must get this out, WTF is up with BOTH samsung and verizon.
Verizon isn't just the one accountable for it, Samsung is as well,they are slow on updates.
LG just released the 2.2 froyo update for possibly the worst phone ever made the LG Ally.
The other thing I'm not getting is why the development is slow for the fascinate, are people just not that interested in the phone as other phone's ? No disrespect for the developers. I'm just stating that other phones have had 2.2 for a LONG time and the fascinate is just barely getting into 2.2 development.
Dont tell me its because GSM and CDMA are different. Honestly I have ported GSM to CDMA android phones just fine, yes it takes some time. Right now im currently looking into how the samsung is all set up so I can take a shot at some things..
end rant...

I believe your talking about porting a rom from a GSM phone to a cdma phone.... what's up with the fascinate is way more then that.....

Anybody who starts yet another of these complaint/conspiracy threads should be auto-banned.

At the BB I went to they were speculating $200-$250 2 yr so $450-$500 for full.

Pre-ordered my Evo 3D today...theyre hooking me up with a free device because of some terrible customer service I received, then complained about.
First one to pre order in that particular store too...which I was happy about. I was the first one to reserve a nintendo ds when they originally launched and I was the first one to pick it up launch morning...but I digress...Im very excited to get this device, mostly to get it rooted+2.3+1.2GhzDC+Sense 3.0! Hopefully unrEVOked and/or rageagainstthecage methods will both be available!
If history repeats itself, I could see the Evo 3D on June 4th. Here's hoping history repeats itself...in this particular case ONLY!

I was thinking the third, though I have nothing to base that on. Seemed logical though because
- its ~ 1 year from the initial release
- also a friday (as was the 4th)
- preorders at best buy today - don't these start ~ 1 month in advance?
- I want it to be sooner than later...

Can New EVO's be Rooted Still?

Seriously considering going back from the 3d to the original EVO as the new one...mine at least, simply has too many problems that get in the way of actually doing work on the thing.
Can a new off the shelf EVO with the current software build still be rooted?
I did search but didn't find an answer to this specific question so any help would be greatly appreciated.,

If it has 2.3.3 and the radio is s-on you're out of luck....for now.

You did a search? Ha.

No root! Did you search here or some other non cellphone fourm for EVO 2.3.3 root? 2.3.3 is not rootable. No one cares about the EVO 2.3.3 We are the red head step children of the cellphone world.

Finding an exploit can take awhile.
If you recall, Firmware 3.70 took several months too.

i am amazed and surprised it was not rooted within 1 week of the release.

quite funny on how you did a search, this Topic is plastered all over xda and android central about not being able to root with a 2.3.3
On the other hand, i've heard plenty of rumors that they 2.3.3 was recalled and they are not updating now.. which sucks because I got mine with a 2.3.3 and hate not being rooted

But will HTC really unlock the 4G now that the 3D is out? I've not been able to find anything anywhere that specifically states that the 4G will be unlocked in the future. I'm pestering them on Facebook and so far they've refused to say that they have any intentions of unlocking the bootloader.

i doubt htc will unlock evo 4g. this will have to be done by devs.
htc said they will try to unlock future phones... not past phones.
it started with evo3d & sensation.
locked htc botloader is not new... evo 4g has always had it...this new one must have some type of new security.

It is too bad that they can't put the previous bootloader back on the phone through an update or something. At least that could be worked through.
