[Q] Android 2.2.1? - Epic 4G General

I'm not quite sure what the .1 means at the end of it, on our devices if we flashed a leaked versions it shows it. When the official froyo comes out will it be 2.2 or 2.2.1?

It is the latest version. If they release froyo it will be 2.2.1. Not sure what the differences in 2.2 and 2.2.1 are though. Haven't taken the time to look.

we will have to wait and see. there is no reason to not give us 2.2. if they don't i still think they dropped the ball with this phone. guess it doesn't matter, ill be upgrading next month anyways. just thought id share this in case it does mean something.

Hey guys! Every android phone is getting 2.2 exept the hero. But don't worry.... we'll give you an updated 2.1 that fixes sprint TV and NFL mobile....... The crowd goes wild!
If they really are only releasing an updated 2.1 then they really are major a-holes.

i agree, we do not need a 2.1 update when almost every other phone gets 2.2. who knows maybe they will surprise us with froyo.

Yeah, I'm hearing the Droid would be able to run it, but with minimum requirements. I also heard about dual core Android phones. Who knows what Android has in store for us..

Not true. We would need a Legend/Aria/MT3G Slide 2.2 ROM to port it over. IIRC, the Desire has an ARMv7 processor while the Hero has an ARMv6 processor

Exactly, who cares about froyo, what about gingerbread! (2.3)
AFAIK, Gingerbread requires Hi-Res screen.. Not for Wildfire then.

Difference between 2.2 and 2.2.1?

On different ROMS, some say Android version 2.2 and others say 2.2.1. Is there a significant difference between the 2?
Yeah.... ".1", lol

2.2.1 has updated Twitter application with new authentication support, improved Exchange ActiveSync functionality, a new Gmail user interface, and updated Amazon, News and Weather widgets.

Upgrade to 2.2 now or wait for 3.0?

So I'm in the fence about upgrading my stock, rooted epic to 2.2. Now with gingerbread in the works, should I even bother with going to froyo and just wait?

Seeing as we were told that froyo was coming in september, then november and we still haven't gotten an official update I doubt it. Plus samsung has told people that they will not discuss their plans about 2.3 for us galaxy s phones
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Well I wasn't particularly concerned with a Samsung released version of 3.0, as there is a "release" of 2.2 out for the Epic.
I would upgrade to 2.2 cause gingerbread source codes haven't been released yet...so it will take time for the Dev to port 2.3 over,cause their waiting for the source codes for 2.2 and 2.3....hope this helps
Just for the record gingerbread is 2.3 not 3.0....

I do. Is it said from both Samsung and Sprint? Because if both dont say it I'm thinking the wait for Froyo means I'll be on an Epic 2 before we see it

The second sentence is correct.
This first one is not, unless you are just recalling rumor and speculation. Neither Samsung nor Sprint ever said Froyo would be delivered to Epics before the end of the year. Of course, the end of the year is now 17 days away.

Kaoscinate is cm ....but the screwed up galaxy s software makes aosp difficult.....inspite of that kaos jt and company have made good progress and vanilla aosp is pretty usable as a daily rom
We also still lack the source for Froyo (at least publicly), which is why our current EB01 voodoo kernels are a 'hack', and we don't have voodoo sound, BLN, etc.
The Froyo source may or may not help, depending on exactly how far Kaos is (it might be more work to figure out wtf is going on with the Froyo source, than just to finish up Kaoscinate).
it would be good to here from Kaoscinate dev with a status - anything - he was so good at updates with his progress up until the 2.2 leaks
love the work dev have done to move this phone forward
Thanks

EB01 is a later leak than DL30. It fixes a number of the various bugs in DL30, and is what it seems most of the developers have abandoned DL30 for.
There's several early EB01 threads in the dev section announcing it, that give a quick list of some of the improvements.
Ahaha! I read the "less than" symbol backwards. I was confused there for a moment.

Just follow Kaos's twitter. He's working on it, but AFAIK, it's not close to being ready for prime time.
