Just read a article that someone posted in the xperia arc forums, and it has a chart with all US carrier pre-froyo phones and how long it took to update to froyo once it came out in may...
Aparrently, only like 7 of 41 pre froyo phones were updated o.o
Andof the samsung family tree, the intercept is the only one to get the update.
I wish I knew how to post links, cuz it was an interesting chart and It shows me we're not alone in this plight.
And, honestly, atleast we got a semi-official froyo build out...the x10 owners are stuck with eclair and a statement from sony erricson saying how they feel the custom 2.1 is on par or better than vanilla ui lol

This link has some info on it. Some guy says you can get it in the Sprint store. Until we get other confirmation though, I call BS. Then again I've also heard Tuesday may be OTA, which may corroborate the above statement. Either way, it is all complete rumor and no sources have proven to be reliable.

Wow sasung is just circle jerking. I wanna know what's so different in the vibrant 4g that it has froyo but the regular vibrant doesn't.
If I'm not mistaken, the only difference is the hspa+ radio and ffc right?
And nah you definitely won't be ale to get it from the sprint store lol and I doubt it'll happen this Tuesday. They're just hanging the carrot infront of our faces, but I don't cre to follow it anymore. If they decide to cut the string and give us the carrot, I'm happy, but now I'm just indifferent when I see it.

Why r they kept using the UK news for US version
And how exactly did the examiner get that a tweet from Samsung UK would have anything to do with T-Mobile US? They based their article on incomplete information and conjecture.
Real journalism is dead

Im with you man, BS or not who gives a damn. Even the flamers hope its real as do we. If it happens it happens. I just want the source code, could care less about the actual update.
Others are reporting that samsung started the role out today in the UK and we all should have it by the end of the month.

That's not what that article says at all! Unless by "we" you mean you are in the UK and you are talking to all of the UK users here, which are none, because we are in a US phone forum.
It's Samsung UK tweeting that it's started rolling out today and all Samsung UK handsets should have it by the end of the month.
Haven't we been through this like 10 times already?!

Pretty sad that we finally got Froyo (albeit unofficial) the same week that iPhone did.

Yep, i did. Kinda interesting that iPhone got froyo before we did.
Thought there'd be a few opinions on it. If not, no big deal, that's the way forums work. You post, if people want to talk about it, they do, if not it goes away (or people who dont want to talk about it can be a smartass and keep it at the top). Not like i posted in the dev section.
wowwww iphone has froyo and my epic 4g still doesn't officially have it. (havnt made the jump into rooting yet)
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
I was pretty ambivalent about froyo until I learned that it was on freakin' iphones already.
Oh well.. "end of the month" they say..

it seems to me that every one is getting the update ,,,but sprint, i think they are holding back,the 2.2 update for a new pad that is coming out,
i am running the leaked 2.2.1, it works good , just a little laggy, on the home screen,
i installed this on epic 4 g
the down load speed is just a little better
the battery life is a lot better
every thing seems to work
it is very sable
i would say it is a good flash

Actually, this may very well be relevant. Perhaps it's a sign that they are readying the release. Who knows for sure.... It updates us on the status of the overall roll out. Whether or not it applies to Samsung as they seem to march to the beat of a different, unknown drummer is another story.
Thanks for the update.

Thank you for not disappointing me; I knew for sure I'd catch a flame or two... hehehe
Thank you Rob for coming to my defense
Maybe now that both of Sprint's favorite sons, the EVO brothers, got the GB update they can finally release it to the red headed stepchild.

Is there a root for this yet! ( have fun)
You are going to get hell for this.. There are about fifteen threads about this. SEARCH. Even just looking in the evo forum you would know.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Being new to this forum myself, I'm kind of wondering if you're being sarcastic or something? Probably not... Expect to get "flamed" by others.
There's no root yet. But, there are two or three different exploits that have been discovered/developed very recently, so we should be seeing something released for our phones relatively soon. The most notable is AlphaRev's new hboot exploit for the HTC Sensation, which supposedly will be able to be used for most current hboots (so hopefully the EVO). But, nothing has been released yet. We aren't even supposed to know about it.
The best thread I know of to follow for the latest news is the one below, but you'll definitely know when someone releases something to root the 2.3.3 EVO. There are a lot of us waiting...

OK - I will
1) When you were a kid did you like to bang on a hornets nest with a broom stick?
2) Do you tell your girl friend that outfit make her look fat?
3) Do you call your mom a beotch when she nags at you?
4) Do you tell your boss he is an imbecile?
5) Do you call your sister a cum-belching whore?
6) Do you not pay your taxes then nark on yourself to the IRS.
7) When you win the lotto do you give it back saying I am not that lucky and I don't deserve it?
What the heck is wrong with you? (Of course I'm Just Kidding)
Let's face it once google announced the ics as the next version of android why do some people still want gb when ics can be leaked and used on our phones. Google needs to be the one doing the updates not the carriers and phone makers. Google should open a beta and prebeta builds to all who want them.

For someone who's been around since the 70's you seem to not understand the development life cycle of a product to be expecting such an asinine thing to happen.
Using win7 (retail) to win8 (alpha) argument proves your failure to grasp that.
BTW, i love how decad3nce pwned your last post. LOL

Because to us Gingerbread is the most important release ever! Gingerbread was made with Hummingbird in mind..ICS is a huge improvement for dual core phones..while we definitely get some new features, you would not notice such huge performance increases as you do with Gingerbread.
Locked. OP, check your pm's.
