Seems to me every post on here lately is just people whining about what they don't have...
I use my phone daily, and get a lot of use out of it.. I obviously am not as obsessed as many of the whinners, but I guess it gives them something to do.
Why don't all the folks whinning about not having 2.2 just start a thread *****ing about not having gingerbread..
. . . . This concludes another useless thread that doesn't not further the use of an Epic in anyway.. Please move along!!
Your whining about them makes it even worse

Now this might do some real good! Sprint would be totally taken back and might think about shoving 2.2 out the door just to head off any *****ing about not having gingerbread.

lmao they already have. and yes everyone that owns this phone except for me and you is a whiney bish lmao
F*** off. Don't come on this forum if you dont like it.
The point is that this is one of Sprint's "top of the line" phones. Why don't I have the bells and whistles that the comperable Evo has? I paid a premium to have this device and all the features its capable of. I'd like to be able to enjoy those highlights.
On a side note if Samsung/Sprint did a little bit better job of keeping everyone in the loop on where they were with updates it wouldn't be such a big deal. I don't need specifics but a ballpark timeline would be nice. It's all about managing people's expectations.
they said they were rolling it out the 26-30th

Grabs popcorn, You in the wrong forums yal better leave before we tear you a new ass in here lol. My boys got every right to ***** in here. If you don't like it get the hell out of here.
Nope; not I... I love the phone '& Froyo'
I still love this phone and have since launch. I'd rather have timely updates like the rest of us, but either way I think this phone is bad ass. I let everyone else QQ And just sit here and listen.

Hopefully fix gps / keyboard issues. My gps locked like a glove on DK28 and closer than I have ever seen on DI18. I enjoyed the new style of text messaging too. Its all about user expierience. Flash would be nice too.
I ran the leaked DK28 build for awhile and enjoyed it quite a bit but it obviously wasn't finished. I'd like to give the finished product a run.
Im in no hurry for froyo til mobile ap starts working on it, wireless tether sucks ass in comoarison, also my gps works great on d118 the only thing froyo will bring me is flash and apps2sd which apps2sd is not even a big deal for me im nit running out of space or anything and my phone does everything I want my phone todo. I dont care if froyo officially doesnt come out til january 2012.

The main thing I want it on my wife's Epic is for C2DM or cloud to device messaging for third party apps. I'd like it so that apps can use less battery power that do notifications among other things.
Also the JIT's kinda nice too..
I haven't done any complaining about it on the forum but one would think one of the best/most expensive android phones on the market would come with the latest version of Android. Anyway personally I went back to running 2.1 with Phoenix/Syndicate Rom after trying a whole slew of 2.2 ROMs. I'll just wait around for the official Froyo and try not to think about it....

I would love to see that on my Atrix. Look at how fast it made that Droid!.

Yeah motoblur up until that sucks. This actually looks decent and seems quick.
I still have a Droid X my kids use for watching videos and playing games and I had to do a bunch of stuff to get gingerbread on it. Once done, Gingerbread is a well polished machine by comparison to previous versions. It adds the LITTLE THINGS that iPhone users tend to enjoy. I liked it and give it a big thumbs up.
my motoblur work like that...but......and with live wallpaper??? still fast or like a cheat?

Wow... Can't wait for this. Blurified gingerbread seems nice. A lot better than the ugly stock theme from 2.1/2.2.
Made that DX scream.
:O i want it!
i made that Droid X fast on a single core processor imagine on our dual core!
i got to say one thing tho. the dock was kind of motoblurs trade mark. its 3 little green white and blue icons, now gone...
OH WELL LET ME HAVE THAT 2.3 MOTOBLUR!

I didnt post what you quoted so I cant speak for him but I will elaborate, slightly. I have gingerbread CM7 on the Captivate and there are several things I like about it.
First and formost, and this is petty, the screen does the "crt monitor" screen on/off effect animation thingy. Its superficial, but awesome. There are several other interface changes that are an improvement imo.
Secondly, native wifi internet calling via SIP. It still takes some setting up and know how but you only have to read to learn.
Of course there are "speed" improvement like always.
Theres a Download (manager) app.
Finally, security. You probably read about that already.
Repetitively tapping on Android version in Settings->About tablet brings up what I think is an 'updated' version of an easter egg. I think before it said, "BUZZZZZ" - but who knows.. maybe it might be news to someone.
Well, I though I was being trolled, but it actually does something lol. Mine says Rezzzzz. Know of any other easter eggs? I've never been into 'collecting' them, even with all the video games I used to play. I think I remember seeing Koush say something about tapping something in ROM Manager like 100 times and something would happen, but I didn't really pay attention. But yea, if there are any other easter eggs I would love to know about them!
*EDIT* Mine won't do it again, is it just a one time thing? That would seem to follow suit with the whole easter egg motif I do believe, but could be wrong. Also, if there are others and are device specific, I have a DX, D2, D1, and DInc along with my Xoom. Might hafta search around tomorrow morning. Or just go around tapping the sh*t out things....

Very impressed what what I saw..Whole slew of new great features.
Any thoughts?
Tons of new stuff...i like it. I can't wait till is ported to the Vibrant...the 4.0 ADK is already alive and available, so i guess that it shouldn't take long for CyanogenMOD team to update to 4.0...lol
Thoughts: CM8!!! Someone is gonna port it for

Just watched the stream and here are my thoughts:
Ice Cream Sandwich looks like a crap. Personally it looks like a jumbled honeycomb and WP7 aka "Magazine Interface". Google had the chance to pick up the ball Apple dropped and make the design a little more inviting. From the the blue Tron glow of the dialer to the metro like interface of the people app (?) it's like 5 different themes jumbled into one.
Hardware wise, it gets a meh. I'm just excited to get the larger screen plus Super Amoled HD
Despite that, the features are amazing. I was particularly blown away by the instant voice, nfc sharing, and new photo features. Android has come along way.
Shame they didn't touch on ICS for tablets as this was the OS that ties phone and tablet together.
In another note, reading the Engadget comments, I'm particularity amused that most "comments" (apple fanboys) believe that this was the first time Android featured folders. HA! Take that Apple!
So because it has squares an swipes to side its metro ui???

I ****ing loved what I saw. I really really really hope that ics comes to the vibrant.
So there is no menu button anymore or the multitasking button will double as that? Also I wonder how ICS will be compatible with existing apps.

Face it, the Vibrant is DOA. Either be happy as it sits, or move on. I'm outtie.
I liked ICS and the phone. I just wish the phone had a better GPU, it has practically the same GPU in our current vibrant (power vr sgx 540).
The Super Amoled HD screen should be impressive, then again with that higher resolution a better GPU would have been nice!
If the phone comes to T-mobile or At&t soon, I will get it.
Also ICS is deffinately coming to Nexus S.

No luck there...I ditched my Vibrant for the amaze. Samsung build quality is **** in comparison. Hell, my N1 is built like a tank...plastic bezels are for cheap phones--why Sammy keeps using them blows my mind. I'd rather fight s-off/etc. with a well built device than deal with the gsII/ Prime's cheap build quality.
As for ICS, it's all a software gimmick. Skins really do make a difference. AOSP is for boring ****s that think bare-bones is attractive. If that were the case, I would've married a 12 y.o. girl.
\Give me tits and DAT ass.

I don't really care how Touchwiz, Sense, or any other manufacturer based UI looks like. But the thing is when they mess with the phone's software they tend to slow it down which makes AOSP better.

In the United States, phones are very cheap.
That's not the case in other countries, you can read about it here:
http://www.xda-developers.com/feature/outside-the-big-tech-scene/
Maybe in the US you can allow to upgrade your phone each year or even less, in other countries you usually stay with your phone for much longer.
So, I don't think the Vibrant will be forgotten so soon.
Even the G1 phone has some unofficial mods for Gingerbread and even Honeycomb.
So why would our phone be forgotten?
So I was feeling nostalgic yesterday and was wondering if there was away to get a quick cupcake port. I known seems crazy and pointless but I kinda muss that little cake that started it all for me.

Arguably the most incorrect, yet strangely perfect, way I've ever heard anyone describe anything.
But, no, I don't think it's possible. The lowest kernel we have is for eclair. I don't know if you were here when all the Gingersense leaks happened, but before we had the 2.3 kernel, nobody could get anything to boot.

Fyi I remember Cupcake because it was the first time we got an actual non home brewed keyboard for the HTC Vogue. Yay for 1.5
