Just noticed after fighting with Kies (works, doesn't work, works, doesn't work - repeat....) this morning that there is a firmware upgrade available for the device. Haven't had the option before so I'm assuming its just out new today as I had Kies up and running yesterday..... installing now...
report back lol

I disagree. There have been many phones with different carriers such as the Touch Pro CDMA, etc that development between carriers was greatly accelerated because the differences between the two were very small and once one was developed the other followed quickly. By increasing the number of users on a particular device devlopment for that device increases and continues for much longer.

Sorry I didn't realize through Kies it was specific to Telus phones specifically and not the Fascinate in general. So I guess you are confirming that there is no option to update through Kies with your phone?
there it's not for the verizon fascinate, and there is a difference if a mod for a phone bricks the others counter part then they need to be seperated to avoid bricks. in other words , different phone, different forum

WTF - seriously I posted this to HELP people and all I'm getting is flack.
Post says upgrade via Kies right in the header. Also says in the thread it's for Telus. If you can use a frigging computer and get onto this forum then you should have enough brain cells to figure it all out. All the info is there. If you're a complete idiot and you brick your phone - YOU DESERVE IT. It's nature's way of saying you're too retarded to operate electronics. If you don't know you can't use Kies with your phone when you read this thread one of two things will happen.
1: You'll have learned you can't use Kies with your vzn. Sadly you find out that you also don't have an upgrade to 2.2 but you've learned something and that is important.
2: You ignore it and try to upgrade your phone. You are a complete idiot and you get what you deserve. Hopefully after crying and whining about your stupidity you'll realize it's more than you can handle and you'll go back to practicing walking and chewing gum at the same time.

good day.
Look we don't hate you. When we have over hundreds of noobs coming in here and flashing the wrong roms and completely bricking their phones, the last thing we need is another misleading thread telling noobs to flash the wrong rom.
You completely miss the point of what we are saying. we are glad that your phone has 2.2, but we are asking you to change the subject to say something along the lines of...
[Telus Fascinate Only] Froyo update via kies
Otherwise this is misleading to the average new fascinate owner.
You are also misinformed as the verizon fascinate is CDMA and the Telus fascinate is GSM. Much less in common than you would imagine. If you notice the development forum, you will notice how telus roms are labeled.
I an not trying to flame you rather trying to inform you, you can take it as you wish or continue to be ignorant.

How do you like Froyo on the the Telus Fascinate?
Any improvements and/or Issues?...
Do you (Telus owners) have any idea how many phones I deal with on a weekly basis where people have flashed firmware from another carrier on the VZW Fascinate?
A lot. Trolling has nothing to do with it, and as for the comments like this

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?

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

Its always good to keep up on what the carriers are doing as our us carriers may follow suit. And it could help all Galaxy S phones in the end. I signed up just to say that the post was helpful
When did people here become so intolerant with thread topics? This forum is practically dead compared to other sections. We have very little development going on, very little forward movement, so these informative posts are really the only reason I visit here day to day. An incremental update is better than no posts at all, Imo.
This pattern of poster abuse is much more annoying than the posts themselves.

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?

EA04 would mean it was completed 2 days ago. So 3-6 more months of testing and 30-40 more versions and we should have a final release.

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.

Looks like the i9000 is actually getting that 2.3 update. Maybe some other SGS models will start seeing it, I'd say everyone but us will get a glimpse.
Wrong section.
But yeah, at least the gs family looks like it will all get gingerbread.
Usually if its pertaining to Froyo/GB people don't mind seeing it in here. Hell, most people only view this subforum of the Fascinate and not general or any others. But you're right.
I feel like the Epic and Vibrant will get it in a few months, and then 25 years later Captivate, Mesmerize, Fascinate.

Wow. And it turns out, Samsung is the first to get GB on a non-Nexus phone. The irony....

Ohhh yeahhh. I haven't heard anything about that since DL posted an article though. Well, close enough, it's still very ironic.

Its not harming anyone and this has been done many times before. You just can't leave things alone can you?
Here we go again. Another thread that's gonna get trashed with useless back and forth nonsense

No, it isn't harming anyone, but it is cluttering this board. Nitsuj, is right, follow the rules, it's not that hard.

It wouldn't have to be that way, if people would have a little consideration, and follow the rules. Personally, I don't want to see this crap in here, when I'm looking for files.

You're right, but nothing in the general section EVER gets viewed at or talked about. Everyone has their browser bookmarks set to development.
So it's all about page views then?

I have my bookmark set to the main page, so I can decide which board I want to look at, and I frequently visit the general board. By the way you're talking, you realize you shouldn't have posted here, but did it anyway. What makes you above the rules? It's called courtesy, and everyone should try it.

Nope, I'm just trying to spread the good news. Thought people would be interested. Decided I would put it in the "Wall Street Journal" as opposed to a "local smalltown newspaper".

I don't see how it'd be ironic if Samsung is first.
Google worked with them to release Gingerbread on some hardware that was only slightly different from the rest of their phones... They had an experience, resource, and time advantage over every other carrier... and yet they failed.
That's ironic. Samsung had every advantage, and yet couldn't even freaking get Gingerbread out on their flagship product before someone else. Seems like more motivation to me to avoid any future Samsung products.
And yeah, where to post things seems pretty obvious to me: Any discussion thread, where we're just talking about various random things go in General, questions go in Q&A, and actual releases (or things closely related to development... random questions about a ROM wouldn't warrant a new thread) go in Development. Posting things in the wrong section just to get more eyes seems fairly silly to me... if people aren't reading General, it's probably because they aren't interested in those things, probably only wanting actual ROMs/kernels/etc. Then again, making any comment on this topic seems to be a good way to get people to just flame you.

And now supposedly LG is working with Google for the Nexus 3 which will likely have the quadcore Tegra 3.

The rules are the rules...its not me being a ****...this is in no way shape or form development....and belongs in general
Its not up to you to decide that just because more people go here that "news" should also be in here as well
The rules are the same for everyone..otherwise development sections would be even more cluttered and difficult to navigate than they already are

good day.
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!

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.

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.

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
