WOW can't believe I didn't think of this earlier...

So I'm sure that many people know about the leaks going around about the MyTouch HD. It's said to come out on Nov. 3rd.
Now seeing that this phone is in the line of MyTouches, and all of the MyTouches are guaranteed an official upgrade to 2.2, I personally believe that we will get the OTA somewhere very close to that date.
But that's just me, maybe I'm wrong, what do you all think?
Maybe the MyTouch HD will get Gingerbread/Honeycomb instead of Froyo (lets keep our hopes high for T-Mobile :])?

HD is said to come with 2.2 but gingerbread/honeycomb are a possibility in the future.
Since the HD is running stock of course it will be on there, not sure about mytouch slide gettting it around that date tho but that would be great. Been enough time to implant espresso into Froyo. (Fropresso?) So possible yes. The normal mytouch better not get it before the slide. Just not cool >_>
GO FROPRESSO!

If only I did have friends to call on my rooted MT3GS running FroYo to tell them about this stuff! Perhaps if there were some sort of niche internet forum I could spend a few minutes on each day to indulge my hobby in between being sad and being pathetic.
We all know that, in order to have friends, you must share ALL common interests. Sadly, my newfound love of gadgetry has cost me my all my friends and family.

Love the humor. But yes, android is deff a hobby only for me. Work 12 hrs a day and come home to a pregnant wife, dont think i have too much time to be wasting on here but i do keep up to date unlike crabby pants.
To get back on top, i think that is quite logical. To release froyo to the mytouch line shortly after the release of the latest mytouch is business smart. I say they make us wait a month or so after the release date of mytouch hd. I do think it will be some time before we see gingerbread on any handsets anywhere.

I did a bit of purging of the arguing posts. Please keep the thread on topic and avoid flaming. Thanks.

Actually everyone says the mytouch hd is tunning expresso, because of the genius button, and I believe you are right, if not maybe around after the g2 is released or around when the mytouch hd is released, look

[Q] New Sense with Gingerbread?

Does anyone think HTC will give us the new sense with the gingerbread release?
I'm really hoping so. any word on the due date for us Proud EVO owners?

I heard somewhere that it'll be mid February
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

It's certainly possible we'll get it. HTC and Sprint have been treating the Evo very well. It's still a flagship device for Sprint.

At the very least, any minor annoyances, lag, or general feeling of choppiness will be phased out (im looking at you, bottom of app drawer) due to gingerbread finally allowing the launcher, as well as pretty much every other native app to use the phones gpu for hardware acceleration. Im hoping this works out well for us, but since we know the EVO's gpu isn't exactly a monster... oh well, I have an upgrade anyway

That's actually not true. 2.3 still doesn't have full HW acceleration.

Yeah Gingerbread does not use HW acceleration. I know when Android does, it will make the experience even better then it already is.

That would be nice.

I really don't think it's appropriate to "spam" a manufacturer for something you want.

hahah ok yea just trying to help.... and relieve my boardom.
so IS there any way we can try to get it? i want actually considering spamming, but is there any alternative method?

I spoke with an HTC rep about three weeks ago, and their indication was that we would be getting both Gingerbread and the new Sense 2.0, likely in the same update, around the end of January/beginning of February. They said the update was ready to go before Christmas, they were just waiting on Sprint for the all-clear to push the OTA. Here's hoping!

i'm very exited for this new update. does anybody know what we will be getting from gingerbread? or is the update solely 2.3 and sense 2.0?

Gingerbread
Last time I checked, 2.3 WAS Gingerbread. Maybe you are thinking of 3.0 which is Honeycomb for tablets?

i meant what things would come with the update. like froyo came with a flashlight app etc. or will we just get gingerbread coding and sense 2.0 (which would still be very nice)

Evo update

So the evo update that came out a couple days ago, was updated to include sprints connection thingy. Very interested to know if this can be incorporated or ported to work for us. I use juice defender when not at home and this sounds like a sprint replacement of that app basically. Interested to see how it works out.

What "evo update"?
What is "sprint's connection thingy"?

He knows that, he was asking if it would be able to be ported over to the SHIFT.

The old palm pre had a similar homebrew app that did this. It worked pretty well; however, it took a toll on the battery because GPS and other location services were on constantly.
Sent from my cm_tenderloin using Tapatalk 2

Looking at the womans epic which also got this in the last update, there aren't much for options, looks like everything is pretty much automatic. Its not a seperate app, its actually built into the system settings under mobile networks. Looks like this is being pushed to all/most devices so I wouldn't be supprised at this point if sprint comes out with another update for us to include this. I'm going to keep an eye on her connections and see if I can notice it working and how well.

This polls your location every so often, not a constant update on location. Also uses cell location, not just gps. Sprint has included this as a battery saver as well as a connection optimizer. Controls 3g, 4g, and wifi.

Wow. Yet another d-bag move from sprint/HTC

After installing the latest OTA, (I'm 100% stock no root, don't hate,) i had to go back into the ##3282# menu and zero out the proxy values. No problem, I've been used to having to redo this after updates/rom flashes ever since my EvoOG. However, this time around, as soon as i did the mod, my Youtube videos stopped loading! I would IMMEDIATELY get a server error and tap to retry message. I went and restored the stock proxy values, and sure enough, the videos now work like a charm every time. Thanks Sprint/HTC, if you spent as much time getting us Jellybean as you do making our lives difficult, maybe your inboxes wouldnt be flooded with complaints =] i wish you and your devs uncontrollable diarrhea while stuck in traffic tonight.

To improve 3g speeds with streaming and netflix. And because the last update did more harm than good. Again, i have not gotten into rooting my phone yet, I'd rather wait it out until there is a stable set-in-stone solution without HTC finiding out about it.

GS4 Running slowly, keyboard missing keys, and just other miscues

Hey Guys
So I am coming up from an HTC Evo 4G..(not LTE) so you already know this phone is a come up for me. I noticed, however, that the phone is running a tad slowly. Here are a few examples, maybe you all could help me out.
First - when I put in my password pin the phone will lag and catch up when I press OK. Now, technically, this is not that much of an issue because the phone opens up when I press OK...but to see that lag is a little disconcerting.
Second - if I am typing some messages the keyboard will miss certain inputs in my typing. Now maybe I am typing a little too fast, but, come on? I know I am touching those keys... I am using SmartKeyboard but I figure that could be an issue too.
I notice that my ram climbs up pretty high. I clear all my programs...but still. Anyway to remove this bloatware?
Finally is there a root out yet?
Thanks guys. Sorry for the litany of questions

Either debloat for yourself or flash a custom ROM.
Sent from my SPH-L720 using xda app-developers app

There is a root available for the phone as well as a stock ROM that is entirely free of bloatware located here.
The lag may, in fact, be the keyboard you're using. The most popular keyboard of choice - and for good reason - is SwiftKey; have you given this keyboard a shot? I use it myself and type extremely fast and it keeps up better than my iPhone 4S ever did.

You can try to uninstall most of the bloatware apps but a lot of them aren't able to be uninstalled which is why people root and head to a custom ROM.
Sooner or later you'll find yourself flashing AOSP ROMs for a complete Vanilla stock Android experience and a performance increase and flashing often.
It's an addiction, I caution you my friend!

o yes, i understood that. but I just don't want to brick this thing...I'm a little nervous about that

its kinda hard to brick any samsung galaxy phone.. u would have to do thing really stupid for a brick

100% stock here and using the stock samsung keyboard I also can validate the lag and skippy issues. The chief editor over at phone dog goes over and over about this. So its kind of a known issue. I am coming from the s3 and it was smoother when it came to typing and multitasking. I end freezing and dropping frames a lot I am hoping samsung comes up with a fix.
