Really!?
So it's t mobile, verizon, sprint AND att, but not samsung? Ok, yeah that makes sense.
Why is it taking all these lazy slow "devs" so long... 4 other phones have gingerbread ports.... I guess they are too busy asking for donations

samsung has changed their plan.
We're gonna get WP7 instead of Android in the next FW update.

Oh shut up. Our developers here are no different than other devices in regards to donations. It is more difficult to port ROMs to Galaxy S phones then most other devices.

You're certainly welcome to show these "slow devs" how it's done. C'mon what are you waiting for? What? Can't do better? Didn't think so.
lucky for us, the Nexus S is close close to our SGS that it will help alot with porting. I caught someone's twitter last night that had Gingerbread running on their Vibrant.
If you can't do this stuff yourself, you have no right making the statement that the people that are doing it are slow. If you could do it, you wouldn't be here bashing the ones that can.

No, see, it makes perfect sense because see t mobile, verizon, sprint, AND att don't like having upgrades before one another, so now they are teaming up and releasing the upgrades at the same exact time.

I'm not 100% sure, but I believe Eugene had 2.3 running on his Vibrant. It's a bit early for me so I'm not entirely sure I'm remembering correctly, but you can check his twitter to be sure.

They are working for free in their spare time. They owe you nothing.
No phone has a fully function version of Gingerbread. It will be a while before you can use it for everyday use.
And finally, GTFO.

And to the person you quoted, they aren't even ports. They are base ROMs made from the SDK. They have no Kernel source for drivers to work either.

That's pretty frustrating. If not for the great progress the CM team has been making, I would be considering a different phone at the moment.
Maybe next year in 1st or 2nd quarter, if Sprint has nothing better to do. Do yourself a favor and get the DK28 leak.
its coming
I have confirmed with my sources, we were all part of an expirement by samsung and sprint to prove that they could put out a total **** product like the moment...... and then still promise the moon aka the epic 4g and we would all go and buy it and hope we wouldn't complain about not having froyo simply because we are not getting data lockups. So there you have it, 2.1 no data lockups if you want 2.2 buy there next phone it will come out stock with it but by then there will be android 3.2
Lol, sprint held off n releasing froyo because they saw then noobnl and the rest of cyanogen epic team is making progress. And they are testing it to steal some ideas and put a sprint branding on it. hahaha

Really? You think people have been patient? I've seen nothing but constant whining (in the dev forum, no less) since I first started lurking here back when the phone was first released.
It will be released when its released. This isn't a great place for complaints- nobody who cares or who could even enact a change will read it. This constant whining does nothing but drive people away who might be interested in developing or push down the posts of the fractional population that actually has something to contribute.
Take it somewhere else. Anywhere else.

Thanks for that troll... the epic is supposed to be epic, now its worse than the moment... Thats just horrible business. And i guarantee, If I had the source for the OS and Drivers and was being paid to do it, I could have a stable release of GINGERBREAD in 4 months time... and thats me programing alone.

I agree that this is not a great place to complain about ROM versions, but for whatever reason the dev section is 90% ROM related (there should be a ROM subsection). But...this phone should have been released with froyo. I was running froyo on my Vogue/Sprint touch for months before I bought this phone. Hopefully Samsung will catch us up soon.

Who cares? You're not running the ****ty software like the EVO, and 2.3 isn't going to be any different (for the most part). If you want to complain, go to a sprint store near you and ***** to them. Nobody is going to want to develop anything if people don't stop complaining. All of the resources are in these forums to make your phone look just like "2.3".

Yes they have. And you know what buddy, no one is forcing you to come in here and read and comment. I do agree these threads should be in the general section and the moderators often move them. But you know what, if you don't like reading these types of posts, than don't. It really is that simple.

I thought I would share this with you all. It's kinda lulzfull that people know who we are.
I am currently with T-Mobile, but am more than likely going to switch to Verizon when they become AT&T-Mobile late on this year as I hate everything that is ATT and refuse to give them my money. So anyways here's the story. Note that I am ME and the Verizon guy is VZW, and that it's kinda emelished for the lolz, but this conversation did genuinely happen.
Me-Oh hai, I'ma lookin at switching from T-Mobile to you guys and would like to ask about a Thunderbolt and see what kind of packages you all offer.
VZW-KK coolio. The T-bolt is awesome, but kinda expensive...might I reccomend the !FASCINATE!?
Me-TROLOLOL it doesn't haz froyoz!
VZW-BUT IT'S COMING! I SWEAR.
Me-....-.-....bro, I am a moderator at XDA developers...I know stuff.
Then the entire conversation changed.
VZW-...wow really? I visit XDA all the time! I used to have a Fascinate but I got tired of waiting for OTA Froyo so I went with the Thunderbolt as soon as it came out. I still have my Fascinate though and I use the newest Superclean ROM. What board do you moderate?
Me-....the HTC Rose...and the Fascinate.
VZW-Really?
Me-Yeah...names ashasaur.
VZW-DUDE. I KNOW YOU. MY NAME IS-(deleted cause he doesn't want me to put it here). I like what you did with the trolling.
Me-Yeah that stuff is kinda outta control but I am working on it.
VZW-Yeah that times_infinity dude really trolled everyone bad, I thought you where gonna ban him.
Me-Naaaahh. We are all cool.
VZW-So yeah, the Fascinate SHOULD be getting Froyo within 2 months...but again, we have hearing that for the last year almost.
Me-That's why I want to go with the Thunderbolt, because of good updates and solid HTC hardware.
VZW-Well I have to say that I admire all the devs at XDA, and that I love the custom ROMs for the Fascinate. I have used basically every version of SC that has come out and love it to death.
Me-Yeah I hear that SC is a pretty boss ROM.
*20 minutes of going on about plans and stuff*
Me-I do believe I am going to switch here in about a month.
VZW-Awesome, we look forward to having you.
Me-Word.
Anyways, this HONEST TO GOD took place. I was geeking out the entire time over the fact that someone out there knows who we are. Anyways, that's my story. Thoughts?
That's cool as heck! I've been a xda fan since my moto q

Great story! This XDA community (and related AC, etc.) is certainly a subculture to itself...
It's funny about that Froyo stuff given that it was really just two days away. I'd wait for Droid Charge if anything. The T-bolt sucks battery on 4G and apparently it's a hardware issue with the chips inside it not playing nice with each other.

hahahaha look now, Sprint edited it back. Theyre calling it an "unfortunate misprint" but I have a feeling it was a leak. Honestly I'm not sure how you can post in four different locations that the Evo 4G now has Android 2.3 and have it just be a mistake? Anyone else think thats a little excessive for an accident?
A lot of people are gonna be pissed when they open the box and the phone is running froyo.

in fact he could only have meant that post since that's the only post jamie has made on xda since the flurry of posting activity that irritated the xda people in the first place.
hardly what i would call posting "regularly", especially since he explicitly says it's his last post ever on xda unless some site administrators explain their response.
i don't really have a dog in that fight. i just liked the way reloaded runs on my phone and appreciate jamie's dedication in making that happen. if more ROMs come, i'll flash them. if i have to find them on twitter, i'll find them. for now i wish him well, even if i expect he isn't going away for long.

It looks more like the decision was Jamie's to leave XDA, not the mods. It has happened several times before where the Dev's asked the Mods to close their threads because of the drama that goes on in them. If he were banned, his account would be frozen and his threads would all be closed.

Thank you kendall. I think jrollercoasters started this for everyone to say positive things about Jamie's contributions to us and our device, not speculate on what happened. Let's all just give him thanks we think he may deserve as I believe that is what this thread was intended for.
If you want to know what happened, ask the man.
