who cares at this point with an actual leak of a sprint release candidate now.
I seen that...
I have a friend that works for Motorola and I asked him, "Hey, when is the update coming?" He said, "Oh, 2.2 will be coming in about two months." Then I specified for the Sprint Hero and said last he heard was around the end of next month but to not get my hopes up because these things are never set in stone.
But 2.2 right after we get 2.1?

I wouldn't doubt it though. Just as soon as 2.1 hits something better will be there.
LOL theres another thread LOL
Your friend works at Motorola, and you are asking him about HTC phones... That doesnt seem sensical. How the hell would he know what HTC is doing?

I'm sure alot of people here care cause when the official update comes out there might actually be a truely bug free custom ROM, not these ROM's that say "100% working!" followed by 500 pages of bug reports. Just saying
Taiwan is not a country. It belongs to People's Republic of China or Republic of China.

Good question. I really don't have a good answer though.
where is my froyo?
It's the 20th mate.
I was wondering the samething, they didnt announce anything about Froyo i guess its still in development...How long is this Google convention?
No guarantees though...
From the keynotes, it sounds like it'll be announced on day 2. Doesn't mean it'll be made available though.
No, we'll hear about it. No one knows when it will be released though. If I was to take a wild guess though, they would release it to the developers there so they can start with the new features. And that means we'll have the pre-release here very quickly.
I WANT MY FROYO DAMMIT!
I hate waiting so much.
I'm too, fuxxxxxxing tired of waiting..... dammit!!
Froyo will release within this month?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!
I think my wife might kill me if I talk about FROYO anymore. She calls my Nexus "the mistress"

yeah tell me about it. i would think that google would want to come out swinging with the big news first and hit with all the froyo info. this waiting till day 2 is making me think its not gonna be as big of an update as well all had hoped. oh well, still a great phone.

hahahahaha!
Its day two. Maybe they release it while talking about it like they did with some of the things they showed us today. Even though its less likely.
Lol! Same with my girlfriend. She makes fun of me and her brother (incredible user) for having smartphones and constantly talking about it. And she doesn't want me to get her a new phone, but like I listened last time. Lol. She's with Verizon, so I can snag her up a Droid Eris (now with 2.1) or LG ally. We showed her the incredible and she wasn't too fond of it..... but the Eris might be Just enough for her.
Hopefully she's another android user soon!
Froyo tomorrow at the key notes. Doubting about a release though.....
I for some reason don't see us getting ahold of it yet for another 2 week at least, that's my opinion.... Sux but true
Are you guys really that impatient that you won't wait one more day? Considering your gonna be waiting another month most likely for it to makes its way onto the Nexus.
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?

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."

It could people die daily...lol hope that's not the case for any of us lol poor bastards die waiting for froyo..
They did give us a time frame on a update announcement..if they dont come through with even that they will catch flak..
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!

Yeah a reps told me that too.
No sarcasm intended.
But might as well edit you're first post and erase it all.
people here have been fed enough lies so now they'll start bashing the OP.
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"

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...........

Do we have to play this game again? I think everybody already know the answer considering our froyo wait.
I hate "Top Flight Security Mods"
I have a friend who works in the Sprint retail store and he told me that developers at Samsung are currently working on a Gingerbread for our Epic4g. He said the latest build was ZM>9000 and that they let him test it and it was pretty awesome.

It will feel horrible because it will be a buggy mess. Let them get Froyo sorted out before they begin to use this as a buggy base of their Gingerbread build. I do believe Samsung will deliver Gingerbread, but dont even think it will be before Summer 2011. I have nothing against Samsung really. They could do better with software support though. And you will find ridiculous skepticism among people at XDA for anything positive that is "supposed" to be coming from Samsung in the future.
Thats true, well then, I guess, well just wait and see, anybody else want to share opinions?
updates!
I personally do NOT think we will ever see another update past froyo...
We might get a froyo update to fix bugs and what not but as far as 2.3 ect, they will leave the epic by the wayside and focus on the galaxy S2 series and other newer phones. The epic was just a complete failure and they know it, thats why they are come out with galaxy S2.
well idk, its a tough call...
took a long time for froyo...
but then you can look at it like "well samsung sees how the US folk are all pissed off so they might start trying to release more updates bla bla"
if the epic does get gingerbread, dont expect any update past that..because past that Samsung will expect us to do our part and buy another Samsung device.
I think personally Gingerbread will come just to rebuild some goodwill with the people of this country. Then maybe with that, we would buy the next uber Samsung phone. At least by getting Froyo, my Evo owning friend can now shut up how his Evo is soooooo much better than my Epic because it hbas Froyo (even after showing him my pics and videos look better, screen looks nicer, can play more vido formats natively) because that was the only thing he could point at. Now we're even.
If Gingerbread comes, it's not going to be for a while; otherwise, why would they have bothered releasing FroYo?

Don't confuse Samsung, LEAVE EB13 as it stands!!
Finish GB so we don't have to wait until 2.4 or 2.5 drops before we get 2.3!
