Really!?
So it's t mobile, verizon, sprint AND att, but not samsung? Ok, yeah that makes sense.

Why is it taking all these lazy slow "devs" so long... 4 other phones have gingerbread ports.... I guess they are too busy asking for donations

samsung has changed their plan.
We're gonna get WP7 instead of Android in the next FW update.

Oh shut up. Our developers here are no different than other devices in regards to donations. It is more difficult to port ROMs to Galaxy S phones then most other devices.

You're certainly welcome to show these "slow devs" how it's done. C'mon what are you waiting for? What? Can't do better? Didn't think so.

lucky for us, the Nexus S is close close to our SGS that it will help alot with porting. I caught someone's twitter last night that had Gingerbread running on their Vibrant.
If you can't do this stuff yourself, you have no right making the statement that the people that are doing it are slow. If you could do it, you wouldn't be here bashing the ones that can.

No, see, it makes perfect sense because see t mobile, verizon, sprint, AND att don't like having upgrades before one another, so now they are teaming up and releasing the upgrades at the same exact time.

I'm not 100% sure, but I believe Eugene had 2.3 running on his Vibrant. It's a bit early for me so I'm not entirely sure I'm remembering correctly, but you can check his twitter to be sure.

They are working for free in their spare time. They owe you nothing.
No phone has a fully function version of Gingerbread. It will be a while before you can use it for everyday use.
And finally, GTFO.

And to the person you quoted, they aren't even ports. They are base ROMs made from the SDK. They have no Kernel source for drivers to work either.

Ikr, people think these, devs just invent new, things.
All the devs do is modify, remove , or theme.
They can't add anything because they don't have the drivers from who? SAMSUNG.

Idk why people don't understand that they paid for those drivers... ;-)

They paid for the ones that come with the phone. Samsung makes the drivers, they didn't promise us and ask us to sign a contact saying new firmware every week!
The dev team is nothing without samsung.

they HAVE to ad bloatware, its how they make money.
and i was talking about other features.
The Devs can't add any NEW features than somethign that samsung did and modify it a little and done.
It takes days for devs to modify because their not building a whole new firmware.
Samsung, idk why their late, but it takes 3-5 months to build a rom for HTC and motorola, idk why Samsung's delaying.

Has anyone seen this Samsung launcher yet?

Anyone see Samsung's bizarre "Pure Breeze" launcher yet? I'm sure it's a different division, but I'm glad to see they're working on bull**** like this instead of things like Gingerbread updates.

I have a feeling that developer has absolutely nothing to do with Samsung other than deciding to get a free ride by including the name in his own.

No, I think it's legit... I don't get it either. Galaxy S Support also RTed it.
http://twitter.com/#!/GalaxySsupport/status/105446491069489153
http://twitter.com/#!/SamsungJohn/status/105450490367705088

Yeah I just don't see how Samsung could be affiliated with this horrid launcher.
Either someone threw the Samsung name in their author title, or Samsung needs better quality control in their Android development department.
EDIT: I saw the twitter post from Samsungjohn and I have to say I'm disappointed. :/

The only thing that would make this awesome is if it came with a statement saying samsung is no longer placing custom skins on their android phones.

Some questions...

This will be my first Android tablet, but certainly not my first Android device. I've owned basically every Droid Verizon has to offer. SO, here are some questions that I'd like answered, if possible
1. Is it true that if I decline the TouchWiz update (for the WiFi model), I won't be able to get future updates? Let's say I decline the TouchWiz update and a week later, I want it. Can I get it again?
2. Can I change the quick-apps thing in the TouchWiz update without rooting? The thing with the memo pad, calculator, etc.
3. If I root, can I easily remove the screenshot button and quick-apps button from the TouchWiz update? I can tell I'm gonna hate them anyway...
4. Anything else I should know???

If you decline the Touchwiz update you will be losing alot more than updates. You will lose hardware GUI acceleration, advanced multitasking, settings specific to the Tab 10 hardware.
You will be able to change the quick-apps once someone develops a app to do so. Samsung has released the API.

I know about the good things it brings as well, but again, I just HATE the new launcher and screenshot button and quick apps.
Are you saying that when somebody DOES make an app, I won't need to be rooted?

1. I've seen people say that they still get notification for update after declining it first time. Shouldn't be a problem, but if it is, flash a custom rom.
2. At this moment no, I'm hoping in the future it can.
3. If root, you can remove the unwanted apps and freeze or remove the screenshot but it will not remove the button.
4. Do not listen to 5th element. He states a lot of BS knowledge he has and never provides proof, and also makes false statements about custom roms.

Not yet. In the dev section, Phantom (creator of starburst rom) has been busy porting 3.2 to the tab. It will have the "fixes" from TW while being vanilla.

Mini apps tray

Hello there, I have an unrooted galaxy tab with touchwiz ux running android 3.1. I was wondering if anyone knows how to change a couple of apps in the mini apps tray! Thanks for the help ahead of time.

Check it.

You can't change the apps in the touchwiz bar.
But try this out....

1) Again, Yes you can change the apps in the bar. Remember just because you dont know how to do it does not mean it cant be done. Samsung has released the API to do so.
2) Wizz Bar sucks. All it does is bring up shortcuts to apps which overtake the entire screen. The beauty of TouchWiz is that the apps run on top of whatever app you were already using and you can drag them around the screen. There is nothing like this in the market.

Remember if you can't provide proof its not done and don't give a link to a website that does not take us directly to the proof.
It seems that you like to make a new claim or a statement about something false for the week... This week the api, since tomorrow is a new week, what other false claims do you have? The pictures of the Sdcard slot in your tab, the color changing task bar...? Oh wait those were in the past. Can't wait to see your next lie.

Again, no you can't change the apps in the touchwiz taskbar. You my friend are a deranged person. The mini apps in the touchwiz taskbar are not like regular apps. They are different. Linking some website proves nothing except that you read some blogger as I stated before. Theoretically you can say things like an API is released but realistically you can do nothing as of right now. If you can please post some pics with your screen shot button of regular apps magically running as a mini app. If you cannot post your screen shot then you my friend are still a troll. Not a link, a screen shot.

I was making a dumb **** joke about the silly names their marketers came up with---it was late, a thousand pardons. I actually like the TouchWiz UI, except for the silly world time app.

I hear ya on the late thing. Learning about Android keeps me up way too late. I just re-read your post with your purpose explained. It is kind of funny now. I love touchwiz, except for the taskbar being grey.

5thElement can take a lesson here, slack04 provided evidence to support the claim!

Dudes, don't be jealous. 5th Element is too busy hacking a custom Android 6.0 Hot Fudge Sundae ROM on a prototype six-core 4GHz CPU to bother with proof.
