2.2 just seems....unpolished? Tons of little annoyances, choppy browser even on non flash pages, etc. I don't know...I'm just not feeling it.

Not feeling a very beta build that barely made it to any testers?
Can't imagine why you wouldn't be feeling it.
It's not a finalized version. There are bugs and such because its a leak. Its more then likely a leak of a beta version of 2.2

The DL30 leak is great, yes a bit buggy at times, but I also have no to desire to even think about 2.1 again. So happy to have some of the little features I've been missing. I was just about to give up on my fascinate, but the same day I was talkin to a buddy at work the leak came out. I was seriously sittin at work b!tchen about not have 2.2 and check on here and BAMMM.. there it was. I had 2.2 loaded on my phone faster then you could blink! lol
I like it so far

Most of the important stuff is done retardedly by Samsung, and they don't release source code for their retarded implementation. They make it pretty hard.

I haven't seen anything about why is 2.3 hard to port...only threads about froyo
I was only curious. I wanna know if its because no one is working on it because they're working on cm6 or is there really something blocking it.
I don't mean to belittle the devs working on cm6, their hands are tied and this wasn't meant for them and I'm only waiting on mms to just flash it and never look back

Its garbage. Its a proof of concept. We had gingerbread booting on the epic like a day after its release, but not in a functional state. Why completely rebuild an OS when you can take what we have and make it as functional as possible. It would be a waste of dev talents to hand build a Frankenstein gingerbread when there is so much else to work on.

Flash Player requires 2.2, which isn't officially released yet for the Fascinate (EB01 is a leaked Froyo rom, though).
So has anyone that's on stock EA28 tried to check for an OTA update to see of the rumor of the aforementioned 2.2.1 OTA is actually being pushed today like various sources said it is supposed to be?

basically the sooner the ota starts, the (hopefully) sooner the froyo source is released from samsung.

Considering that EB01 still has a number of problems (like the new GPS issues), I'd imagine they'd hold off on releasing until there's nothing too major.
Plus, they haven't announced that they're going to do anything, so it seems highly doubtful it's coming out today.
Totally agree.. Besides if they can not get bing up in our face what's the point of even updating us .. Ever

That hasn't stopped them from pushing out updates with a multitude of issues before. lol Just release the source. Who cares if it's buggy? Our wonderful developers will fix it and then Verizon can use that to push out to everyone.

Unfortunately the majority of Fascinate owners will never be able to reap the rewards of all the hard work that our developers put into making Samsung's Fascinate an actually great phone.
I am surprised that the Epic 4G got theirs as scheduled. We may not get it today but we will soon enough!
Spoke to Reston, VA today. They claim they are still working on the official GB update to the Epic with Samsung. They don't want to have any problems like they had with the Froyo update (according to them- there was a "lag" issue with the rotation on 2.2 OTA update). No date planned as of yet. Please stand by...
As long as its working right when it comes out. Thanks.

if only we could get em to release the source (with EVERYTHING needed) and let the community fix it for them, since we all know it would happen 10x faster than they are getting things done. Oh well, keep dreaming right?
Samsung should just give up and let the Epic community work on GB. Give them the source code and I bet they will have a fully functional build of GB within a month.

CM9, wasn't for me, so I'm currently using CM7-which I love. BUT, the nightlies still haven't fixed the volume whenever you make outgoing calls and I don't like the Camera/video recorder. Since those two things haven't been fixed (And its driving me crazy) I was wondering what you guys think is a very good EL30 Rom? I'm thinking about switching to one but I don't want to sacrifice battery life and how snappy CM7 is. Just interested in seeing what you guys recommend that I should try.
There is only like 3. Just try them all and see what is best for YOU. Each phone and user is different.

Before I switched over to CM9, I was on Clean GB. Before that, it was SleeperROM, but I remember finding something that I didn't like too much. I'm not putting it down or anything. Its just that one of my apps wasn't working or the camera. I forgot exactly what it was, but they're both good. I can't say about the other one. I liked Clean GB a lot. Give it a try.

tried CM7, tried MIUI (had to add a launcher becuase it was driving me crazy without one...lol) and tried CleanGB...
all very nice and unique in their own ways...
in the end, went back to Legendary Rom v2.2, after converting it from BML to MTD format....
the creators have made the install of all the roms idiot proof, it's fun to just backup/wipe as many times as you want and try them all out
SleeperRom or CleanGB are both great Roms.
