lol, I don't really care about that, but the froyo announcement is what gets my heart beating!!
Praise be, but what is their source...? Guess I'll search and hopefully find soon, because if it doesn't come from an official Sprint channel, I regard it as pretty much BS. Thanks for posting though.
Yay maybe this time the release date is real
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Citation Needed lol.
I hope it is true, but with the comment about the tablet being announced, this makes it look like someone is speculating and rolling the dice. (How many times have we heard "I have an inside source, it is DEFINITELY this <significant date>" ?) If you throw turds at the wall, sooner or later one will stick.
I hope it is true though, and it does make sense to do it during the big hoopla
I didn't even crack a smile reading that article....this damn Epic had the most hype I've ever seen for a phone....and now we get the least respect with this late ass Froyo release...lol, I'm just waiting for the source code to see what our great developers can cook up for us!
That's if this release date is actually lidgit...
Well that would be awesome if its true. 2 weeks inbetween the official and the source being released means that I would get to use the official rom for around 2-3 weeks before meaningful roms are released with new and exciting features.
There is nothing on Google News. Nothing on Sprint's Twitter feed. "Don't youuuuu beelieeeeeeve iiiiit...."
Next time I search before even opening a topic like this.
Yeah right.

:hmmm: I'm not saying your wrong, but why would they put out JI6 today, if they were going to release froyo in a week?

Just to comment on your question, the JI6 update could very well be needed for a clear and stable path to a froyo upgrade.
Sent from my BIONIX VIBRANT using XDA App
This is just another troll. The JI6 update will be rolled to everyone throughout October. There is no way Froyo is coming until everyone gets JI6, so at least not until November, chances are probably even later.
I second the ban. As people get banned for Froyo trolling, we will see less and less. (Hopefully.)
Thanks OP.

TBH, this actually would make sense. Hopefully J16 is just a gateway and we'll see Froyo by months end or Even Nov. Wasn't Nov the "speculated" date from the UK site?

If you don't believe him, good for you... but you don't need to get offensive and insult people, respect if you want people to respect YOU.
But he said don't take his word for it. I hope he is just being sarcastic, otherwise, it is pretty much just another trolling attempt.
Maybe its true maybe its not but the first guy on the forum that said he got an update got called a liar and all sorts of things until people noticed it was true I didn't see one apology to him either in my opinion I hope it is true and if it is thanks for the info and if its not maybe he just got bad info himself NO BIG DEAL!

Otherwise he's like the guy who posted he knew there was no gps update coming until nov, lol.

That's pretty frustrating. If not for the great progress the CM team has been making, I would be considering a different phone at the moment.
Maybe next year in 1st or 2nd quarter, if Sprint has nothing better to do. Do yourself a favor and get the DK28 leak.
its coming
I have confirmed with my sources, we were all part of an expirement by samsung and sprint to prove that they could put out a total **** product like the moment...... and then still promise the moon aka the epic 4g and we would all go and buy it and hope we wouldn't complain about not having froyo simply because we are not getting data lockups. So there you have it, 2.1 no data lockups if you want 2.2 buy there next phone it will come out stock with it but by then there will be android 3.2
Lol, sprint held off n releasing froyo because they saw then noobnl and the rest of cyanogen epic team is making progress. And they are testing it to steal some ideas and put a sprint branding on it. hahaha

Really? You think people have been patient? I've seen nothing but constant whining (in the dev forum, no less) since I first started lurking here back when the phone was first released.
It will be released when its released. This isn't a great place for complaints- nobody who cares or who could even enact a change will read it. This constant whining does nothing but drive people away who might be interested in developing or push down the posts of the fractional population that actually has something to contribute.
Take it somewhere else. Anywhere else.

Thanks for that troll... the epic is supposed to be epic, now its worse than the moment... Thats just horrible business. And i guarantee, If I had the source for the OS and Drivers and was being paid to do it, I could have a stable release of GINGERBREAD in 4 months time... and thats me programing alone.

I agree that this is not a great place to complain about ROM versions, but for whatever reason the dev section is 90% ROM related (there should be a ROM subsection). But...this phone should have been released with froyo. I was running froyo on my Vogue/Sprint touch for months before I bought this phone. Hopefully Samsung will catch us up soon.

Who cares? You're not running the ****ty software like the EVO, and 2.3 isn't going to be any different (for the most part). If you want to complain, go to a sprint store near you and ***** to them. Nobody is going to want to develop anything if people don't stop complaining. All of the resources are in these forums to make your phone look just like "2.3".

Wonder who's gonna get in trouble for hacking verizon servers.
For that is the only feasible way that I could ever possibly believe on how someone got their hands on the source code.
Sent from my baked and emotionless SPH-D700
This is how it should be done! Samsung and the carriers SHOULD have a developer update. That way developers can sign up for the beta releases so they can go in and help fix problem areas. That way, they'll have updates for everyone else MUCH, MUCH faster.
Instead, they're either firing or hiring a new head Android programmer at Samsung:

i just hope this gets in the hands of our boys and trhey can actually do something with it
This is good news for us.
Not sure what it really means, if anything for us. Just an interesting find, if it's even true. If our boys could get anything from it that would be awesome. I am interested to see what VZW has done with the build, and if any of the DK28 bugs could be fixed with some code form this build. Still, I don't think we will see it. More than anything, if Verizon gets an update out the heat will really be on Sprint to get something out. I am just starting to get concerned that our work is being further delayed by this February 7th announcement that Sprint is prepping.

I read the article and it says nothing about source code... Just a leaked build like our DK28. They probably got it from a Samsung guy sympathetic to their cause.

That's also why it doesn't mean quite so much for us, unless they can utilize and code in the build for bug fixes in our own. I just think that both Sprint and Verizon will be under increased pressure to get things out.
Oh man. I wonder if the TV Out drivers are in there.
Probably just some internal leak from an employee fed up with the wait...possibly.

I don't have any inside resources on this myself but just going off the obvious "work" that Sammy/Sprint are putting into all this its looks like we are going to see more builds/official real soon.
Plus EE03 was/is pretty darn good. This (EE19) is 2 builds later so its gotta be darn close to debugged.
Only release date "guess" I have seen floated is around 6/20
Would be very nice if that pans out
