I guess the nexus one is beating us... - EVO 4G General

I was checking the AdobeAirBenchmark site, and noticed that the Nexus 1 IS WAY AHEAD of us regarding Firmwares. They already have the 2.3 running according to some tests, and someone in Belgium already has 2.3 in their hands. And today, 2 Nexus Ones were being tested with 3.0 (Honeycomb?)
Check it out:
http://www.airbenchmark.com/reports/results/83
They are running 3.0 test-keys, not release keys. And if you go to the device lists, u will see all the diff devices and firmwares out to date.

Did you know that Nexus One was special? And the next Nexus was going to be special too?
With all the bull**** revolving around the net (and no one is saying that your bit wasn't bull****), who's to argue that official developer devices aren't faster accommodated than others?

As everyone already pointed out, the Nexus One is a Google supported phone. It'll get updates the minute they are released, everyone else has to wait weeks/months after it. On top of that, the Nexus One will probably continue to get updates long after us. We'll get 2.3 if we are lucky but I can almost guarantee that this phone is done right after that. Not the case with the Nexus One and it's a half year older than the EVO.

The Evo might not get anything official after 2.3, but you can bet it will be supported for a while here on these forums. Hell the HTC Touch got windows 6.5 on it.

Another update about magic getting 2.1

Wonder how long testing will take.
ha, they said "security updates" Im wondering if they are going to add another "perfect spl" in the update so it will weed out the people whom have "rooted" their phones. The same thing that Sony does with their devices.
forget about 2.1 .... Nexus one already have 2.2 update today

1) 2.2 (Froyo) is released and already available as update for Nexus One.
2) Cause of Jit, Froyo will most probably run better on our device than Eclair.
Rumors: Android devs said the Google Ion will be getting Froyo.
Ok. I was talking about it being dev for the MT3G.
I would like to see 2.0 on the MT3G to. Im waiting for T-Mobile to release it.

how soon till you think 2.3 is leaked

we all know its going to happen but how soon till we see the leaks
Leaks? It's already officially out. Nexus One's are receiving the update as we speak. As for an EVO specific leak from HTC/Sprint, who knows..I'm sure the devs will have something out soon if there aren't any major hardware changes / requirements.
SDK is out NOT a working rom its no "leaked" pushed yet to the nexus 1
This update sucks for me if it doesn't fix the CPU problem of almost maxing out when scrolling which causes scrolling to be laggy. If they don't fix this by the time my next upgrade comes up I'm switching to a Windows phone. I want a smooth interface.

I guess I'm not following.
According to Engadget, Gingerbread, 2.3, is running on Nexus One's. They've received the OTA update.
Although, they may have been wrong and pulled the article and didn't say anything, since
http://www.engadget.com/2010/12/06/android-2-3-update-now-rolling-out-to-nexus-one-owners/
no longer appears to be a valid link, but it was just a half hour ago.
I think this is what it said:
Nexus One owners feeling a little Nexus S envy can breathe a little easier -- we're hearing that Android 2,3 Gingerbread is being pushed out to the N1 as we speak. We'd imagine that all the slick new features that don't require new hardware (like NFC support) will be there, and we're definitely interested in playing with this built-in WiFi calling stack.

That might have been an old link where the nexus one got a security update and people jumped the gun on calling gingerbread
Looks like Engadget was wrong and pulled the story. Nobody can confirm that 2.3 is out it seems, though some have tried to get their N1's to update.
Way to go Engadget, wrong information with no clarification. At least post a "Oops, we were wrong" update or something.
The N1 forums are saying it will be out on/around the 16th.
Edit:
Think they heard me:
Update: Looks like our flood of tips came from people who were seeing their N1s get a different, less-interesting update -- we'll let you know when the actual 2.3 update roll out. Ah, the heady optimism of hope.

One of the main guys on the Android team tweeted that no ota was released for the nexus one and that the source would be released in the "coming weeks". My bet is that the first rom with working Gingerbread on it will be Cyanogen and within a few weeks of the source being released.

Yup, for our EVOs CM is the best bet and that will be AFTER the source (not to be confused with the Nexus One OTA) is released.

Any sense rom will have to wait till a 2.3 gingerbread source is released by HTC which could be a while, if ever. Cyanogen is already on 2.35.9 kernel which hopefully means that porting their work to 2.3 shouldn't be that hard to do.

I'm going to say this once to head off the countless sheep who will ask...
Do not ask when Gingerbread will make it to the EVO.
Seriously, how the hell would any of us know? We're not psychics, we're not secret HTC/Sprint/Google/CIA/Mafia/Former KGB/NSA employees, we can't predict the future, so why on God's green Earth would you ask us?
Shut up, sit down, twiddle your thumbs, and wait for a press release from Sprint, HTC, Google, etc. announcing that Gingerbread will or will not be ported to the EVO. If you really want Gingerbread, go help Team Douche port it to be CyanogenMod 7. That's the most guaranteed way to get it to our phones.

Not sure if there's any confusion with what I think I read from your post but.. I'm talking about the AOSP source not the HTC source. That'll probably take a month or so after the Nexus One OTA to be released and then another month or so before CM releases a RC of CM7/2.3.

windows phone? are you on crack?
I'm guessing you won't see a Sprint/HTC Gingerbread ROM until sometime next year. Rumor has the source code being released when the Nexus S ships which is allegedly on Dec 16. Expect AOSP based Gingerbread ROMs to start rolling out around then and an Official Sprint ROM after sometime well after that, after its been thoroughly QA'd.

Should be interesting. Also, I had not heard of a ViewSonic phone before this article, and I am not sure if I am liking its design.
Nonetheless, based on what you said, it's good to see others come along and hopefully compete with Samsung, especially since so many people do not like or want a Samsung phone - other than to have Samsung's beautiful phone screen.

Well, the way they're treating N1 owners right now is rubbing me the wrong way, but I'm willing to give them benefit of the doubt. In fact, they could be just waiting till 2.4 is ready to give it to both Nexus 1 and Nexus S. We buy the Nexus phones partly because we are supposed to be given updates on a first priority basis. If Google decides to hold back 2.4 from us for another phone, they will have lost an Android supporter in me.

I'd be shocked if we didn't get the 2.4 update, at the time of its launch. Especially since 2.4 doesn't seem to be Ice Cream, but rather a touch of Honey glazed over Gingerbread.
While I am kind of new to Android (and smart phones in general), I cannot see Google keeping this update from us NS users. Although, I am a little surprised that the N1 hasn't seen Gingerbread yet (OTA from Google that is).
Just curious, how many updates did the N1 get from the time of its launch, and what Android version did it start with (Eclair or Froyo?).
I'm really surprised the N1 hasn't seen GB officially yet. I would be curious to see 2.4

News 2.3 update

Any news guys about the long waited for 2.3 ??
(Last news was it will be released on the first 1/2 of April)
Awwwwhhhh, by your thread title and the devil avatar - you had me going there that their was some more news on this!
From what I have gathered, the last I heard and saw yesterday was that the network Three UK announced via Twitter that they are going to be rolling out Android 2.3 very shortly for their branded DHD's and that it was still in the testing stages - other rumours and reports suggested that Three UK won't be rolling it out until May time now but nothing has been confirmed.
Most reports suggest that the un-branded users will get the Android 2.3 update first before the branded users - but still, no date has been announced apart from that it was expected sometime in April.
In my opinion though, from what Three UK have announced - I don't think that both the branded & un-branded users won't officially see Android 2.3 at all now until May time or possibly slightly later.

my apologies if the title & the avatar are misleading.
hopefully we (branded & unbranded users) all will get it around the same time, unlike the 1.84 which I'm still waiting for, Convinced myself us the unbranded users will never get that update. currently stock with buggy 1.72.
I agree with you Liam, we will get the update much later then the end of April .
I have the inspire 4g which is the same as the desire hd and I am not sure when we are getting the update I rooted and installed the Shokouhi Super Ace rom with the leedroid kernel and now I don't want the update I have tried a few roms but this one has been the best I can overclock to 1804
CM7 is already available, for your gingerbread fix and as a plus it will get rid of Sense as well.
No need to appologize for the title, I found it amusing afterwards lol!
If we do get the Gingerbread update very soon then it's likely that we will not see the 1.84 update and I reckon that the Gingerbread update will indeed be the next OTA update.
According to another article I read the other day about the Gingerbread update - Besides the DHD, Gingerbread is also going to be released for the older Desire, Desire Z, The Incredible S & a couple of other models that I can't remember the names of.
Latest news today - Three UK have confirmed that they will be rolling out the Gingerbread update for their branded DHD's in the middle of may;

Surely though, if it's coming to the older Desire - then that means it will definately come to the DHD shortly.

ICS and i9000 - a little history

I'm not going to ask if Samsung would relase ICS for i9000. I'll just refresh my memory with a little bit of history.
December 6th 2010 - SDK 2.3
December 17th 2010 - The source code 2.3
February 13th 2011 - SGS2 announced
February 25th 2011 - 2.3 OTA for N1 and NS
April 16th 2011 - 2.3 "OTA" for SGS1 (5+ months after 2.3 SDK came out).
So, if the history repeats itself, we won't get 4.0 before April of 2012th, if ever. More possible scenario would be SGS2 is getting 4.0 in April, and SGS1 stays on 2.3 due to "memory problems".
Anyone remembers 1st Samsung Galaxy (i7500?). It received 1.6 six months after Donut SDK came out and stayed on 1.6 due to memory problems ...
I'll be buying SGS2 HD LTE soon anyway.. can't resist
I to do not think we'll get it from Samsung but do hope CM hooks us up with CM9 soon after source code is out.

Nexus S is getting ICS, and there have been reports that even the NEXUS 1 will get it too.
Let's keep in mind that the Galaxy S has basically the same specs as the Nexus S. It's pretty much a layup to make a Galaxy S version if they are going to make a Nexus S version...

Yeah, but don't forget Samsung can fool us with their launcher that "will probably require more RAM than available", just like Sense needed to much RAM on HTC Desire and Desire never got official 2.3, although Nexus One will probably go even to 4.0.
Btw. Nexus S received official 2.3 OTA the same day as N1, on 23 February 2011, so we can expect CM8 much before that, I'm just hoping for GPU enabled browser in ICS, only thing that keeps me from CM7 now.

just like Sense needed to much RAM on HTC Desire and Desire never got official 2.3, although Nexus One will probably go even to 4.0.

Yeah, but don't forget Samsung can fool us with their launcher that "will probably require more RAM than available", just like Sense needed to much RAM on HTC Desire and Desire never got official 2.3, although Nexus One will probably go even to 4.0.

As i know there wasnt problem with RAM (desire has full 512MB) but with ROM, because new sense was too big for desire memory, thats why desire got old sense. If nexus s gets ICS and sgs dont, i will never ever buy another android phone (i had four of them, and i've been ****ed every time from htc and samsung), because i'm not money printing machine to buy new phone every year if i want to use new upgraded OS.
Do you realize that sgs is "old" as iPhone 4 and as you can see iPhone 4 already got iOS5 (even 3GS got iOS5 and that **** is older than nexus one) and will get iOS6, and i must to spend another 550-600 euros to buy new phone that will be abandoned after one year. Some will say that sgs dont have enough memory but i dont give a fu.k for that, they need to find a way to make things work, because apple can.
if SGS will dont get a ICS, I will be very sad, bcz Desire HD will get it... damn
There is no reason for SGS not to get it if Nexus S is getting it. It's same freaking phone for most part. Unless Samsung desides to f... us on this one.

well, Nexus S hasn't got the official ICS yet
but there is already a working stable ICS port
so, if DEV were able to port the ICS to the Nexus S
they can definitely do the same for the SGS1
just get a good gang of DEVs to start cracking on it, it really just depends how motivated or not are the DEVs using SGS1
isc theme port i think mostly, not much can be doune wo aosp sources thats why cm guys are holding for that source release

I hate ports, cm7 still isnt good enough as stock samsung gb (used it few times), ok its faster but thats that, only benefit. I gave money to samsung not to devs (dont want to be disrespectfull) in turn i expect software updates. Many people satisfies with ports but we need to demand from oems to update our expencive phones.
