Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa... - Fascinate General

Okay, I just got off the phone with Verizon Customer Service and they told me that they started pushing out Gingerbread 2.3 for the Fascinate to select areas about two weeks ago. Was that the leak we got? I asked her if she wasn't sure it wasn't Froyo that was the update and she said no, that Froyo was about a month or so ago.
What's going on?

Is there a verizon release on this?

Not positive but I believe there is a missed call patch that is due to be released. But maybe it's GB since there was a leak.

I don't think so. If this was true, there must've been some kind of recognition among us. I follow at least 4 different major android websites/blogs and I haven't heard of this. If this was true, Verizon would've posted the update on their tech website, just like they did it with every single updates in the past. I don't see why this update would be an exception if it ever happened.

I thought everyone knew by now that customer service reps don't know anything?

Maybe they were actually sending Gingerbread cookies to those people

Does anyone know how many EB13 updates actually went through OTA? Im just thinking that they just figure anyone with that botched version has already visited the sprint store and returned to DI18... and im sure they wouldn't take responsibility for the Samsung .exe. I just hope they didn't ignore EB13 instead making updates for DG27, etc... just because they are official... they should just tell sales reps to check the OS version (lol i know), in case they have old stock that still has that preloaded. I just hope they do whatever the hell theyre going to do, and call it good. That way the real Devs here, not the paid ones, can fix/improve on what they did. I think they are just getting us all too wrapped up in updates, which is really just slowing XDA development.
*deleted rant about sprintsung.... its all been said* All I have to say, is its going to take a REALLY badass SGS2, preloaded with the highest OS version possible at launch, or Im looking at the already outdated hardware of the Nexus or see if I can deal with the non-amoled of the evo3d. These updates bum me out.

Sounds like some BS on Sprint's part to try and convince people to buy a new phone, wait until after the new hotness is out. I'm going to buy one anyways but I would like an official upgrade for the one I have Now. You've got people here who can single handed port a ROM in just a few days but HTC can't do it in six months with the source code?
They could at least leak the damn thing for us.

Vibrant 2.3 Update coming soon apparently

I read a report and folks were giving someone on the forums slack about another article (can't remember the post) about the 2.3 update timings. I just read that it is going to happen shortly (early summer which should mean by end of this month) for Bell Canada so we might be getting it in the US around August since i think it was a month behind for us when 2.2 came out in Canada.
Here is the full article: http://mobilesyrup.com/2011/07/07/a...-incredible-s-desire-z-and-atrix-this-summer/
I guess we didn't have to wait THAT long for the next update
Mid-July seems like early summer to me
This this looks to me like the Bell Vibrant. And I believe that is just the i9000m and not the T-Mobile Vibrant right?

You are correct. The OP is thinking the Telus Fascinate which is T959D and is not getting an update anytime soon. The Bell Vibrant is I9000M.
Also we were the first US carrier to get a leak of 2.2 and this time around everyone else has a leak but us, and to put the icing on the cake the T-mobile galaxy S 4G has a leak which leads me to believe that there may not ever be a Vibrant ginger release.

Do i need to "unroot" my Vibrant to be able to update via Kies?
I little birdie just flew over and pecked my head and said you are wrong. He also said that a 2.3.3 leak for the Vibrant will happen on the 15th as they are wrapping up the Galaxy S 4G rom and will now work on T-mobile Vibrant ginger rom.
take that with a grain of salt as I shot the birdie and had it for dinner.

If it really does come on July 15th, your going to be so loved, if not..... yeah.
Like I said guys this is from someone on the inside and holds some merit, but as with anything(and you know it if you work in the IT field) dealing with computers/electronics dates are soft and she did specify that.
For those that always want pictures/proof or it didn't happen I don't know what to tell you. Believe me or not, whether the date comes and goes with or without the rom, and even hits one week later, I am simply passing on something that I was told. I asked the question to someone I know and they got me an answer and I know them to be pretty good at getting info.

we just need someone to go buy a new epic and rip off gingerbread lol if it is infact on newer models?
So I literally just ordered a replacement device, yesterday morning in fact. It arrived today and still has EC05. This is through Asurion though, the insurance company that Sprint works with. So replacement devices via the insurance are definitely not shipping with 2.3 yet. Just thought I'd throw this bit of info out there. It's always possible that Asurion's stock is a bit behind whatever Sprint is shipping out.

This would be pointless. No reason for someone to spend $150 for a rip that is still lacking the source code, especially if this means that the official update is a week off (a-la the Evo 3D).

Replacement devices arent brand new. They are refurbished and I doubt they would update them to 2.3.
Guys remember, it happened with froyo also.
But the thing is that they changed it too early then they announce the update a few weeks later

It's gotta be good news in that regard and warrants full rumor status, then.

[info] We're getting CWM Touch fairly soon =D

Keep an eye out HERE for the download link for the CWM touch recovery
Nice post, I saw this earlier and was curious if anyone was going to post anything.
I'm excited. I wonder if it'll work for the ICS recovery as well as the normal one we have.

Yeah, our devs are probably going to have to include it in the kernel or it'll be a fake flash like all the e4gt users are stupidly complaining about lol
Im really surprise by the amount of support our phone has been getting recently. I remember a few months back people thought that the Epic 4G was dead.

Yes. Yes it is. What that has to do with the touch recovery I don't know.

Actually when it got taken off the EOL list and the price dropped to almost nothing for new contract it became a big seller because of the keyboard. I think Sprint will keep it off the EOL list until they commision a new slider. And most of our DEVs are still locked in until July or later for full upgrades.

Hehe, if anyone is interested, I've been trying to sell my phone number for a while. 420-9333, you do the math =]

I'm surprised there hasn't been someone in here whining about flashing the Epic Touch version and it not working.

HAHA, I did it just because it looked like it was on the Epic4g line. Didn't play around much, but I found the touch didn't work, and the menu button selected things. Then I realized my stupidity after rechecking the download page and just flashed back. It looks kind of bland, but progress no-the-less. For the 2 times a year that I don't use Rom Manager to flash without touching anything, it'll be cool.
I flashed the 4g touch version but nothing happened. I figured it would have bricked or something. Its funny when those 4g touch *****es come over here whining because some flash didn't work on their phone. Some people are just out of their domain.

Lol, yes yes, we're family, but they definitely come to our neck and stir up the pot. They actually get mad when they realize they flashed the wrong **** and bricked their phone. Me personally, I'll brick my phone all day and fix it in 15 min. Its just whatever to me. Developers **** on the world.

It came to the Nexus, we just got it baked into a kernel last night for Epic Touch and I am sure it will make its way here soon. Fake flash through ROM Manager only made it disappear on reboot. The funny part was the people posting why their volume and power buttons didn't work. The OG Epic community is well represented over there and always thinking of those loyal to the Epic. The new development has been most impressive. Hell, you are farther than we are on CM9...LOL
