Froyo released on Epic, Vibrant, can we use this? - Fascinate General

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.

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.

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

Please. No Bibles. I try to avoid religion at all costs as it is the leading cause of insanity.

I had no prior computer experience before rooting my samsung moment 4 months ago, which SDX *graciously lays out in plain form.

I visit the forums almost daily and there is always somebody spewing the same "if you don't like it then make your own" statement. You guys are as bad as the people asking about new roms and 2.2. The OP has a legitimate question and he wasn't rude about it either.
I'm curious too is this because the need more then the source or are they just trying to finish up the builds they were working on before the 2.2 source came out.

No, it's because they're on a message board that they can say anything they want.
You ask a legit question, but if you've spent any time on these boards you should know that a "Where's Froyo?" thread is going to get hammered. And if you didn't know that, you should go to the Development forum and find out where Froyo is. From my understanding, Eugene373 is going to drop a build soon.
Go follow any one of excellent chefs/architects that work on the vibrant. They seem to work endlessly in putting out new content and in fact eugene had posted a few times on his twitter about 2.2 and its coming along.
Do a bit of outside research and you'll get your information. There is a Jp3 froyo in the development section as well.
Its a legitimate question but common sense and just basic browsing of the dev thread would have given you a clear answer.

Forum mod has asked people specifically to stop posting these threads. When there is any real indication of Froyo coming, it will be posted.
I've read many blogs, twitter feeds, and comments about this. All I've heard is that even though it's still not ready, it's still being tested. It seems as though they're trying to iron out all of the kinks so that every phone gets the update smoothly and that EVERYTHING works. That goes for all Galaxy S phones, and not just the Epic 4G.
However, in my opinion, it seems as though they're taking their damn sweet time. Can't figure out if Samsung has incompetent programmers, management, or both. However, on the bright side, atleast Samsung is letting us know what's up and not COMPLETELY leaving us in the dark. Although, they're not setting a deadline other than "when it's done" nonsense.
In terms of whether or not it's the carrier's problem really isn't correct. I would assume the carriers don't care as long as the phone can comply with certain guidelines (AKA no hot spotting unless you pay for it), then it's good to go.
Remember, even though most of us are salivating for a new upgrade, I'd say most people have no idea that a new one is in the making. If you say all of your friends know about the upcoming upgrade, you have some mighty geeky friends!
My guess is that it should roll out in the next couple of weeks. Hell, they've had since August to work on the damn upgrade. My guess is that Samsung has a crappy programming staff, ****ty management, and limited budget for upgrading phones.
That's my take on the big mess. Here's hoping it comes soon and works as they promised.

Again I will say it. Why isnt there a dedicated sticky that deals with ALL froyo speculation? All of these threads could be merged with it and all speculation could happen inside of it. Where are the mods and what are they doing? I know its not an easy job to do, but it seems like no one is in charge of this forum at all. No sticky linking to the wiki or a basic guide so that noobs can set up their phone easier. No sticky dealing with froyo speculation. Why not just add another moderator if you need the help?

I am thinking you cannot make people stop commenting about something if that is what they want to talk about. Perhaps a sticky at the top of this section of the forum with the official status of froyo 2.2 has or has not been released yet so PLEASE don't ask anymore. We will change the topic of this post the first thing when it is released to let you know it is available.
I am not telling anyone what to do, I am simply trying to offer ideas towards a solution to this problem.
Exactly. Have a sticky where people CAN discuss Froyo speculation, and then any threads that are STILL posted to general can just get merged with that sticky thread or deleted.
Instead of childish responses, why arent these threads just closed. Is there no type of moderation here?

Sprint will only release Froyo when there are no new xda "when is froyo coming out?" posts for an entire day. Unfortunately, at this rate it may never be released.

I think somebody should post all the roms and new updates on one thread that way it would make it easier for noobs to get the things they need and that would prevent all these how to root topics

While I agree that if such a form existed... at the end of the day it most really be useless.
People will still have the same questions about this and that rom, and term, and version of phone.. etc... and if you combine ALL those answers into one form, well I would maybe make it too the third or fourth page before I give up and move on. Like a lot of forums now, some are a thousand pages.
I'm sure many people will agree the next scenario, which I find myself in a fair bit. You just soft soft bricked your phone, or something new is released... 20 min later you're sitting down with 5 or 6 browser windows open, each one has 20 tabs, and you have 30 new bookmarks made just case there something you might need later from one those pages.
lol... i tell you guys, its awful messy sometimes.. Especially when a friend gives me a phone he bricked and I've never used the phone before.

Wondering if anyone knows if it's possible to unlock OEM for the Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G model G988U1 (z3q) and flash a custom ROM to it. I'm aware that certain models don't allow this and I'm hesitant to test it out from the posts that I've seen describing how to do it. I saw the same thing for my model of the Note 9 and soon after found out that it's not possible for my model of it. If anyone can confirm whether or not I can and provide a link to a thread that includes the sources to what I need or links directly to the things I need it'd be much appreciated.

How to update STOCK 2.1 Evo to 2.3.3 WITHOUT Root?

Hello people! My friend has an Evo that is still on 2.1 and she wants to update to 2.3.3. The OTA isn't working (saying that there isn't an update) and when we called sprint tech support, they said that they would have to create a trouble ticket and go to the store. We called the closest store to her, and they are back up until tomorrow. I told her I could flash it manually (without rooting it)....but i should have kept my mouth shut, because I cannot find a normal 2.3.3. RUU, and am not sure if I should first up her to 2.2. then to 2.3 anyway (oops).
So now I'm on the hook, lol!
So, where can I find STOCK, NON ROOTED RUU's (I've checked the wiki)
And should I upgrade her to 2.2, then to 2.3?
Root is an option, I just didn't feel like doing it (I see Unrevoked would work for 2.1 still)
Thanks for any help guys!

The OTA isn't working (saying that there isn't an update) and when we called sprint tech support, they said that they would have to create a trouble ticket and go to the store. We called the closest store to her, and they are back up until tomorrow. I told her I could flash it manually (without rooting it)....but i should have kept my mouth shut, because I cannot find a normal 2.3.3. RUU, and am not sure if I should first up her to 2.2. then to 2.3 anyway (oops).
So now I'm on the hook, lol!
So, where can I find STOCK, NON ROOTED RUU's (I've checked the wiki)
And should I upgrade her to 2.2, then to 2.3?
Root is an option, I just didn't feel like doing it (I see Unrevoked would work for 2.1 still)
Thanks for any help guys!

Thanks, good to know that the job of a** hat is still available during the recession. Too bad none of the results answered my questions.
Thanks dude. I also found the RUU's over here.
I still don't know if I should step her up 2.1>2.2>2.3 or go straight to 2.3 though.

Should learn to read. I might be an asshat, but I know how to read.

Maybe you should take your own advice. Read what I asked. Look at the "help" you gave me. Thanks.
Try lithid's method....search.

Seriously, when the EVO 3D and GS2 came out, did all the brains leave this forum? What part of "Stock, Unrooted" RUU is so difficult to comprehend....?
1. None of the links in his "search" had what I was looking for.
2. I found my own answer above (see post #5), and updated her hours ago.
3. Thanks to Tropicalbrit for actually reading my question....god.
Edit: Seriously, thanks Tropicalbrit. The XDA I once knew was better than this.
Some of us are still here, being adults

Then there are a couple teenagers like me, filling in for adults
HipKat, teh roxxorz, Lithid, dased14 (who mostly hangs out in Themes and Apps), and several others provide great help. They've answered plenty of my questions before.
Lithid did SalvageMod and Freedom kernel, dased14 makes dozens of flashable zips with themes and mods, HipKat and teh roxxorz have made guides for subjects of all sorts. Everyone has their own personalities though so its something to get used to.
Believe me when I say the Evo 4G forum is one of the better ones. I frequent basically every Sprint / Verizon phone forum and I cannot stand all of the whining and fights. We have a strong developing team and plenty of people qualified to answer questions.
I'm just here to fill in the cracks, my knowledge is limited. The forum is a bit confusing at times, but you'll get used to it. I'm here to keep the peace and help out as much as I can.
Okay. I got off-topic, I don't see relevance in this post anymore. Glad your problem is solved

I actually have no problem helping people, it's just people like you who piss and moan and yell at the people trying to help when they don't get exactly what they need in the first response. If you don't like the answers we give you, feel free to go do it yourself. Think the 3D forums are so great? Go buy and 3D and hang out over there.

Piss and Moan and Yell? Really? You did not just see lithid try to be a smartass, and ended up looking stupid?
You don't see yourself looking stupid along with him?
I don't care about "who's who" and "who did what", I'm not a Stan, and cheerleader is not on my resume. If you treat someone with respect, you get respect, point blank.
Look, I'm done. I solved my own problem (that I spelled out quite clearly I might add), and one guy actually read and understood and helped out too, for which I am grateful. Take care.

Only an RUU. An RUU is a .exe which wipes everything off your phone and returns the phone to bone HTC stock, that's all
