I'm excited for that, but more so for a custom Froyo ROM created by one of the great devs on this site
Edit: if a mod or someone feels like deleting this thread, since it is redundant go ahead
This hasn't been posted before! New and exciting!
ah, my bad. I didn't search the forum to well. I did look to see if it had been, but must of over looked it. Sorry for reposting
Not sure about you guys but I only use twitter for news/tech updates.
Since a twitter account doesn't exist for galaxy s updates I figured I would make one.
https://twitter.com/TheGalaxyS
I'll be trying to keep up to date with all the galaxy s news and post updates as often as I can.
The updates I will post will be about application tweaks, firmware updates, rom news, sim unlock etc...
Updates will include all of the galaxy s phones.
Galaxy S I9000, Vibrant, and the Captivate.
If there are updates that i've either missed or you think they're very important, just tweet back at me, or email [email protected]
Pretty sure Samsung Mobile has this covered, but the more the better
link?
I'm sure there are a lot of things that samsung can't post for legal reasons.
Are you 12? If so this is really cute. If not, this is kinda sad...

whys it sad?
because I'm using twitter?
I love being able to check twitter and see small news updates for various things, its like a more customizable RSS feed.
There wasn't one so I made one...its nice being able to see if the galaxy s has been unlocked without having to check the site daily.

I applaud you for being an ass to someone that is trying to help out the community.
Good idea OP. Samsung won't be tweeting about hacks and tweaks in their Twitter so I'm glad you will keep up with this.
OP, if you'll keep me updated on larger-scale ROM news (like CM finding its way to the Vibrant/Captivate), Galaxy S firmware updates, and the like without spamming me, I will gladly follow you and set your updates to go to my phone as well.
I find myself mainly reading this forum because I'm waiting for a custom ROM or FroYo to pop out on the Vibrant before I buy one.

thats what I'm waiting for, that and sim unlock.
And you don't have to worry about getting 'spammed' by me.
I don't care about gaining followers at all, I just figured that there are a lot of other people looking for the same things as me.
Great idea! Thanks!

Yeah, that one post was extreme.
I should have read the op closer last night, didn't see the other things mentioned.
I assume you follow cyanogen, wes, and the whole crew to get updated yourself?
I went to see Inception last night (WOW), so, my brain was not 100% here.

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?

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.

FFS..
Anything having to do with the kernels for the Epic, vibrant,9000...all have the same response: Will not work.

Use your brains people. They aren't just for breakfast anymore.

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.
So I just went back to the NFX Sprint rom and I was installing my apps and a new market showed up. Anyone else seen this yet? It looks totally different and incorporates the coverflow feature at the top.
Its being pushed out over the next week or so. Check out some android sites they have some articles about it.

FYI - that is NOT a market apk, it is tiny gapps, and a lot of people have had problems, since it actually replaces the current gapps you have and you end up with less gapps after the flash, read more. There IS a flashable full gapps package in jaybob413's rom OP.
really? i kinda figured it wasnt an apk since i said "flash it". after flashing that i didnt loose anything. maybe people just dont know what their doing. my point was that people just need to search more

right on, I was really directing that "NOT a market" comment to the OP, since he may not know the difference. Weird that you didn't lose any gapps, I did.... Whatever. Agreed to the search more, there have been AT LEAST 5 new threads about the new market. Ridiculous. I think I may post a thread with a link to JB's OP so people can have new gapps and stop the thread stuff.

that's cool. I literally JUST posted a new thread in general with links to the new gapps (my first thread starter ever...), hopefully it stops the super awesome board clogging. And by the way, when you post a new thread, it DOES show you similar thread possibilities (I was AMAZED), which makes me really sick how many double threads there are.

dang! i havent posted a new thread in awhile so i guess i missed that. im gonna do a test... im gonna make a new thread(not submit it though) and make the topic "new market" and see what happens lol it actually pisses me off seeing all these threads being posted over and over again. i understand that it can be a pain to search, you could possibly end up searching for hours. and if you do make a thread without searching first then stop and think to yourself...."do i really want to make a thread without searching first and possibly get yelled at and made fun of?" think about that before you make a new thread that has probably been posted before without searching. and please people... stop posting apps or question about apps or anything that isnt a rom in the "android development thread".....whew! glad to get that off my chest lol
Yeah I know another Froyo 2.2 post. But I found this interesting that the Samsung product page for our phone has it listed with 2.2 coming standard. Maybe a clue that it will come within the next few months.
This is the Fascinate for Verizon network.
Hopeful for 2.2 yes, will it happen, probably not soon. I can wait.
http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones/SCH-I500RKAVZW
there are multiple posts about this same thing....
search for those...
Well that is a step in the right direction. The picture under the little article "Galaxy S with Android 2.2OS" still says 2.1 though, but eh at least they are acknowledging that 2.2 is coming very soon.
Figured i would get flamed for this. But all the rss feeds today are posting. sorry guys, did not read every single 2.2 post from start to finish to realize this was posted.
Anyways. Site is inconsistent. who knows when it will happen. I am not getting my hopes up for it. just thought i would share the already shared news again.
Cheers!

I'm not sure about other people on here, but I appreciate the info. Since this is the first time I have seen it. Also because it is not speculation, it is straight off of the samsung site.
wasn't Flaming you or bagging you, simply saying some other posts here and at www.Fascinateforums.com have more info from Samsung reps...
i don't see 2.2 on that page...it shows 2.1 under specs and near pic?
Looks like the over zealous web programmers have fixed the Fascinate for Verizon to show only 2.1 again. Someone either jumped the gun or is just trying to get peoples hopes up.
Hope they got a good laugh!
