Froyo released on Epic, Vibrant, can we use this?

Sorry, the title should say LEAKED rather than RELEASED (can a mod edit?). It isn't stable, but I thought perhaps the kernel was all we needed? Just saw it was released for those phones. I figured the Sprint one should be close?

Sorry if wrong sub forum.

Stop asking, this is prolly the 10th thread started asking about this. It wont be ported, at least not easily. The epic is not gonna work either. The only other sgs phone that might be able to port from would be the one on USCC, but they just got their phone released

No reason to be rude, this is not old news. This just happened in the last 24 hours. The forum didn't suggest any similar topics when I made it. Gah...people can be such douches in here sometimes.

It would be more useful if someone leaked a Verizon build of Froyo for the Fascinate

People get "butthurt", as you so eloquently put it, because there's at least one of these "Omg Froyo got released on another SGS phone" threads posted in development every day. It turns the development forum into a big mess of nonsense that people get tired of looking at.

From what I just looked through there hasn't been any threads about froyo on the epic. You may want to use search before you make posts that aren't accurate, just a thought.

I believe the search he was referring to wasn't that it was "epic specific" but just that there's a post about a froyo galaxy s release all the time and its been answered a hundred times before that no other will work for the fascinate.

Yeah the news just came out that a Custom 2.2 rom was made for vibrant.
Reason why the fascinate will be last is popularity. Anything gsm will be first!
Just the way it is....

I would've thought that more people had the Fascinate than the others just because it's Verizon and they're the biggest?

Meh... VZW is US (CDMA) only..and they didn't really advertise it.
They were busy pushing the DX and D2...
The other guys work overseas ... and apparently actually wanted to sell them.
(Though VZW did do a BOGO on the fascinates if you were lucky enough to catch it...)

There was a commercial on TV for the Fascinate from Verizon for a little while. But no, they don't really get attention without the Droid badge.
People, about building Froyo ROMs, there's more to it than just the kernel. Yes, given a kernel, something could be cooked up over time, but the only way to do it quickly is to work from the complete source of a fully functional Froyo ROM that's built specifically for the unique hardware in the Fascinate. Our Froyo will be out soon enough, so just be patient and wait please. If these others were just leaked, ours can't be far behind. ;-)

VZW chick was useless today. For grins I started grilling her on my promised 2.2 update "within a month" when I purchased the phone.
"Oh...it's coming, but we don't know how long it will be. Last time Samsung gave us an update we had to send it back to them because it required a complete system wipe...which just wasn't going to fly."
Actually, I was pretty impressed she knew who made the phone now that I think about it. Most VZW critters I've encountered didn't even have that going for them.

are there any mods in this forum? i mean really..someone needs to merge,delete,help, whatever...or how about a sticky with froyo in the title explaining that it doesnt really mater what sgs(usc?) gets it we wont until its either ota or leaked... can this happen? puhlease

Tologank, just a suggestion but I wouldn't be a **** to fallingup(angel12) BC he along with a very few other devs are the only people we have working on this phone right now. So go easy. You wouldn't talk to an angel that way would u?

No question threads should be started in development.
If any question is needed in development it should be related to a specific thread and posted within that thread.
To all that that think you are being insulted. Well I don't blame them one bit.
To keep the peeps happy at least follow the rules of the playground.
Check this thread out to stop getting your head chewed off
good day.

Well its on the discussion of F U Samsung Here is the same story on Engadget, so i guess it wasnt in its own thread but u know...

misread!
The twitters or whatever say gingerBEARD is coming to GalaxyS... are they implying a pirate theme??? That would rock! Hahaha... seriously... I just want AN update... 2.3 would just be bonus. I haven't tried the DK2 leak and roms, too much hassle if it is indeed not going official. I do see though that in dev. The roms seem to be moving right along... any way dk28 can be stable enough for daily driver (given no user error on install)??? Just didn't want to post in the dev section with that.... still confused as to what goes there... only roms and leaks, etc? Like that guys request for a homescreen, its a request to devs, but that section seems to be heavily guarded... so ?s like that get dumped to general... and I would assume he was looking for this for his epic... so general android would be inappropriate. Sorry fo rambling, but people really need to lighten up a little on here, were all anxiously waiting whatever is next... its like an overcrowded jail, with the old schoolers barking rules at the new guys to suit their personal tastes on what they want to BROWSE in these forums. I think all of us who don't dev need to humble up a bit... too many me too comments, or knowitall because you read it from a dev. Jeez... this started as a slightly witty joke and turned into a rant about drama queens... sorry! Hope things move forward in a grownup manner...
Cheers all... thanks for your work on our awesome phone!
Oh, and gizmocrunch were presumptuous that GalaxyS implied the whole line, not just the I9000 or whatever. Seems everyone is hearing what they want, and were being given vague, non-comittal responses from the phone gods.

Bell Galaxy S Vibrant gets 2.2

http://phandroid.com/2010/12/09/bel...yo/?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter
Yes I'm aware this isn't a Fascinate, but its interesting all the Galaxy S phones are getting 2.2, so I posted it

IIRC Bell is also not a US carrier
Stop posting garbage threads about SGS phones on non US carriers getting froyo. It makes no contribution to this forum especially since the Verizon Fascinate forum is now the home to non US carrier Fascinates the Continuum and the Mesmerize. This has nothing to do with our phones. Just stop it. It will be released when its released.

All? That's 2 whole Galaxy S devices, the I9000 and the Bell Vibrant. There are still a bunch more to go before they're "all" getting it.
Still, I do expect AT&T and T-Mobile to follow pretty quickly.

Thanks for the news flash.

Guys stop having a fit when people post news, I'm all for hearing anything about updates. I'm seriously worried about samsung just not updating the phones anymore while motorola and htc continue to give updates. So thank you for posting this, nice to be reassured.

He did post in the right section. It is general information about or relating to our phones. This isn't a flame forum, (though I have done it for serious offenses lol).
Thank you op even though everyone in this forum is probably up to date with any tidbit of 2.2 info hahah.

He didn't post this in the right section.
This is the Fascinate General subforum.

This forum has enough crap from where's dj05 or where's 2.2.
We don't need anymore, especially a topic that is meant for ANOTHER PHONE. Post it in the damn Vibrant forum. Fascinate users don't care if the other phones are getting 2.2. They only care if their phone gets 2.2
So this entire thread supports nothing, nor posses any real information about the froyo release date for the Fascinate.
This thread is not related to this device, therefore it doesn't belong here.

Its always good to keep up on what the carriers are doing as our us carriers may follow suit. And it could help all Galaxy S phones in the end. I signed up just to say that the post was helpful

When did people here become so intolerant with thread topics? This forum is practically dead compared to other sections. We have very little development going on, very little forward movement, so these informative posts are really the only reason I visit here day to day. An incremental update is better than no posts at all, Imo.
This pattern of poster abuse is much more annoying than the posts themselves.

Nexus Prime and ISC

Reading about today seems like there has been some update on the Prime and ISC.
http://www.fonehome.co.uk/2011/10/14/samsung-confirms-google-nexus-prime-launch-for-october-19/
The article from today will be unvieled in Hong Kong on the 19/10/2011.
As we know it is built by sammy, if it is being released then it is a good chance we might be seeing ICS rolling out to our SG2s rather soon.
On a side note, i cant afford it, but how many people here will be getting the prime and selling on there SG2s?

It's ICS as in Ice Cream Sandwich, not ISC..
And people, stop posting this s*it! We got pages like Engadget for that! And what does this have to do with the GS2?
Don't answer me with "AIM TRAING TO SEE WHOIS UPGRAIDING!!!", we can't ask that for EVERY single phone out there..
"HEY LOOK! GALAXY Y JUST GOT RELEASED!! WHOS DOWNGRADING!?"

haha love your reply
Sorry for the typo in the title, thanks for pointing it out.
I had a seach under Prime before posting and didnt see anything, so you seem to be raging a little early.
The relation was down to the ICS(look i got it right ^.^) if they are going to start rolling a device out with it then it spells good news for us no?
And this is a general forum. but ofc if mods want to nuke the thread i dont mind o/

The thing is that most developers who want to develop on the SGS3 got the normal version when it was first released and will unlikely buy another phone for "minor improvements". The same happened with the release of SGS and SGS+, the latter had almost no development at all.
