Dear Javid Beykzadeh,
Thank you for contacting HTC Technical Support. I’m excited about the release of Gingerbread, myself. So far, we don’t have any information about when our phones are getting the update to 2.3.
I don’t have any information about when the Evo is getting updates to HTC Sense that’ll let it access HTCSense.com. Right now, the website is still in beta and only the European Desire HD and Desire Z can take advantage of it.
To send a reply to this message or let me know I have successfully answered your question log in to our ContactUs site using your email address and your ticket number ##############.
Sincerely,
Hubert

OP: just a friendly FYI - customer service emails of this particular type are not trusted sources of information. They typically start receiving training only shortly before any releases. Remember all the new iPhone hype earlier this year? Customer service didn't know anything, or were at the very least prohibited from admitting to anything before the 'official' announcement.
Sorry man, that email isn't useful to us at all.
i wonder what kind of new exciting things it will bring...

I wonder when this will be released then, if it's confirmed. Considering an official 2.2 build isn't even out yet
They are shipping 2.2 and going straight to gingerbread. Too many issues with froyo

I think you are mis reading the tweet.
"@tsytsma US Galaxy S line to 2.3 has been made & we aren't prepared to discuss this at this time. ^Sabrina"
I read this as they have made their statement on US GS 2.3 prior and they are not prepared to discuss it further. IMHO but would be sweet if it is the other way around.

Actually, I think this "Sabrina" bot at the Samsung Twitter is making a huge typo by pasting in a fragment of the boilerplate comment they have been tweeting all week. Here is an example of that boilerplate from yesterday:

So in other words, Samsung is just repeating its denial that any announcement about Gingerbread has been made.

You obviously had enough time to type out this post and reply to it.....which takes way more time to do than if you would've just searched.......
I remeber back in my crackberry mod days,
We made ways for sprint to push updates and take us seriously about our phones by writing letters to Sprint's CEO! We were the new jacks from Nextel so we had a force like non-other... You bring a city hood chirp to the smartphone world and ain't making us happy?
Well... that's another thread!
This thread is about email bombing, sprint CEO dan hesse! Let's gather some ideas for those who like to write and let their presence be known as an idividual and unique type of smartphone users! We got " Galaxy S, Gen1 " devices with keyboards! What's up with either a new Similar product, with a Keyboard? Idc where the factory is that makes it but, give me an upgrade! Let there be a phone like this but better on a different network, y'all gonna lose my 1000 dollars a year! I'll give them 1500 dollars next 2 yrs for a bigger screen with keyboard!
Ok I need that rewritten!
But added to with different ideas and prespectives! I want to hit the frequency that taps Dan Hesse's creative nerves! Help us Help Us!

Emails are easy to block and ignore... the primary reason physical letters are effective in large enough numbers, is because the post office is obligated to deliver every single letter - and thousands of physical envelopes stuffed with letters will take up a -lot- of space in the office... emails, not so much...

If you want more information on this topic please visit the new, redone, 'We Need Your Support' thread at:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1427969
We have gotten no news of any kind of update for our Samsung Vibrants. No Gingerbread update, not even a small 2.2.1 update, and I honestly believe that's just plain wrong. This has nothing to do with this phone being too slow or too old to run Gingerbread, heck.. it can even run Ice Cream Sandwich. And before you stop reading, no.. this isn't one of those threads that is just posted to complain, we have to do something about this. Maybe some people don't care for an update, maybe some don't understand what an actual OFFICIAL update could do for us users and devs. The lack of support for this device from both T-Mobile and Samsung has been horrible. Ask a representative from T-Mobile about an update, they'll say; Oh, It's coming.. Samsung is working on it. Ask a representative from Samsung about an update, they'll say; It's being worked on.. no ETA. So now, either both of the companies are clueless of their own product, and honestly don't know what is going on, or they just won't give us a straight.. 'No, you won't be getting an update.' which I think is dumb. I got hooked on Android because of it's openness, the support and the community. One of the only major updates that we got was through KIES, it wasn't even OTA. Maybe most of you don't care, but T-Mobile and Samsung should do right by us. I don't care about getting the latest and the greatest, I honestly would respect both Samsung and T-Mobile more if they gave us a straight answer.
So, what I'm asking is.. please help us by signing this petition and spreading the link wherever you can, because we have the power to fight this, we have the numbers and we can do it. This phone isn't super old, it's one of the best phones I've owned. Samsung did a great job with it, but that gives them no reason to stop supporting it. I got this on a two year contract, they should atleast support it for two years, and simply because it's in the Android spirit.
Link here: http://www.change.org/petitions/bri...-s-varients-samsungt-mobile-give-us-an-update
Please feel free to spread it on Facebook, Twitter, Google+, anywhere you see fit! If we get some headline news on Android blogs and sites, that'd be great, too!
Samsung and T-Mobile, we need an answer.
Will be signing this petition in the morning.
signed, guys common we need ALL of the vibrant members to do this.
Why do they need our address...I'll sign, but I'm worried about that only.

I agree, but use US adresses. This phone US only.
I think we should write about the situation in each posts in all official T-mobile Facebook, Google+, .... pages.
People need to know about T-mobile poor support and poor attitude to customers.

Some i9000 users have helped us out.
But like I said, keep posting, tweeting it, sharing it.
It's our turn to get something.
Great idea! I hope this will make a difference.
Signed. Really hoping we get somewhere, but won't be putting any money on it
signed and sent the link to galaxy s twitter account..they should also know what is going on
Just signed it. Also, someone should contact neobuddy89 and ask him put a link to this petition in his ICS Passion v9.1 ROM thread. If that were done then this petition will gain a lot more recognition from the community because so many people visit that thread daily.

Great news guys you're gonna swallow your words about lollipop and you are gonna love it
By all means, please keep sharing who gets invites. Even better if you use the same handle on the Motorola forums!
Everyone in this thread should be ashamed. You are breaking NDA with Moto by talking about this in public. I do hope that you are removed from the soak and kicked out of the MFN.
It says we aren't allowed to discuss what is actually in the soak test, not that we can't mention it exists.

You are wrong. If you join the soak, you are saying you will not talk about it in public, period. You also electronically sign an NDA stating the same thing when you originally sign up for the MFN.
