Yep easy as can be although I just upgraded to nscollab rom which is 100x better. I'd suggest rooting since your updating anyways

I hate to have to ask this question, but I've read 6 or 7 threads in the last hour and can't find a straight answer. I'm in S. FL. Will Froyo be updated on our phones automatically?
I understand I can update manually, but I don't have time for that, which is part of the reason I left WinMo.

If you are on stock Android 2.1 (Eclair), you will get the update over the air within the next 3 days.
If you are not stock Android 2.1 (Eclair), you won't.
Yes. If you are not rooted and stock rom, you'll get a notice on your phone over the next few days when it's your area's turn. If you are rooted, you should still get it if you are on stock rom and all the bloatware is still there.

Perfect! Exactly what I needed to know. I'll just wait 3 days, thanks.

The first update we received a few months back took a week to get to my phone, and it kept popping up at rather inconvenient times when it finally showed. The visual voice mail update took 4 weeks to get to my phone. I'm in Central FL
I did the simple update method, which I posted about here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=964260. I had my update installed before most OTAs, and I did it on my time. You could do it on your lunch break without issue.
you know it just takes 10 minutes right.
do it while you're taking a dump or something

Oh ah um, yeah, they don't update people in S. FL.
Location has NUTZINK to do with it.
Ok, so it's now a week later and still no update. Will this update ever be pushed?

The update has been temporarily suspended, its been causing a lot of trouble with peoples phones. If you really want it, you're going to have to use the update.zip.
Ok, at this rate I will never get an update pushed to my phone. I wonder if its safe for me to just update manually.

Just realize that the Samsung tool wipes everything on your phone, and if you are on stock 2.1 I don't think there is any good way to back up everything. (no clockwork backup and titanium wont work w/o root)
My backup pro works just fine. it will save data and apps with data.

So is that it, Samsung not going to release the fixed Froyo!? After waiting eternity, Samsung released a long over due Froyo just to shutup pissed customers, only for the release to be buggie and them take it down shortly after and totally forget about us again! I think this will be the last Samsung phone I ever buy!
Samsung = company that only cares about future products...not supporting current/old ones.

Now that the official Froyo release has dropped and we have custom roms like ACS and Bonsai with the new modem. Is that it? I don't image our phones will ever get gingerbread, and if they do it'll be in 2013 when we all have newer better phones and Android 6.0 is out. I guess im wondering if there is anything to look forward to in the development arena for the Epic in the future?
Froyo bug fixes, CM7, official Gingerbread, maybe a GB bug fix update, then EOL, up to the community.

I have afeeling we have atleast 1 more year of good development to come,peaking in about 3-6 months,then declining the other 6. Not that development ever really took off,I would blame the update situation for this.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App
Yeah I hope so. I think samsung def screwed the pooch on this with all the froyo delays. Who knows when we'll/if we will see gingerbread

Didn't see a thread so I thought I'd share! @Cvpcs has successfully booted CM7 on the DX! Read the article here: http://www.android-invasion.net/?p=307
Very cool, haven't had a CM compatible phone since my G1. Look forward to some beta releases to play with.
Awesome! Can't wait for release.
Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk
Not sure we'll ever see a stable one, though. If you look at the Android Police article on it, like nothing works with it at present on the DX; they were just able to boot into it, lol.
Go to rootzwiki and see what he posts plenty of things work.....however for sure alpha. But a whole hell alot more than nothing.

Same. Haven't had it since my HTC Eris, and that took forever just to get root for the SOB. I've missed it.

My buddy has a Dx. How long do you think it will be before its flashable and somewhat stable?

WRONG!
Side note its pretty stable.
So after reading the wiki and mdw, it's possible to flash back and forth on the device? Between cm7 and .596? Like boot into cm7 from .596 and back without using a pc? No sbf or anything?
DX 2.3.3
Working GPS on CM7 ^_^
Replace GPS.shadow.so in /system/lib/hw/ with the GPS.shadow.so used in stock .596.

Flashed on my gf's Droid X. Its stable, fast, functional - only issues are:
- autobrightness
- camera
- gps
- some video codecs
Its already merged into official cm git and nightlies will soon be published through buildbot and be on rom manager.
https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_device_motorola_shadow
You could probably build from source now and have the fixed camera and gps.
cm4dx has nightlies now!

Whilst we wait patiently for someone to find a blaring hole or method that allows root, I have spent many hours thinking about which roms I miss and am missing out on. When we get root on 2.3.3, what rom are you planning to flash first?
LOL

Will the Nexus 7 be receiving official MIUI or CM support anytime soon?
Sent from my HTC ThunderBolt using xda app-developers app
I haven't seen anything guaranteed, and I don't expect to either ( these are community built ROMs and the last thing I would expect is guarentee) however this is a nexus device and will also have a huge user base with a greater than normal percentage of people willing to try custom ROMs , so I think on a practical note this device will get those builds as well as somany different flavors of android you won't be able to keep track of them all

Haha I'm only worried about getting at least a nightly for CM10 until MIUI pops up.
Sent from my HTC ThunderBolt using xda app-developers app
guys dont waste any time asking eh?
you realize that people are JUST NOW getting these in their hands? give it a little while....hell, CM10 is alpha on other devices that have BEEN OUT for a while...
patience appears to be something everyone has lost these days.....
I'm just a little curious as to whether or not anyone has any info. That's all, haha.

trust me....the N7 isnt going to slip by without some serious work done to it.....
did you ever see the amount of work that went into the TOUCHPAD? i can guarantee that this tablet will get CM10, AOKP, and probably MIUI....just give it some time. until then, enjoy Jelly Bean as it is....its not bad now....
Alright, I believe you. I don't even have mine in my hands yet
