I just want to put my 2 cents out here for people to read.
Samfirmware.com was awesome enough to get us the latest leak after I asked on their twitter on Jul 11th, they followed through.
First I hope everyone that downloads and runs EG22 will drop by their site and twitter, @Samfirmware, and show some love, its the respectful thing to do.
I feel like having a mirror is taking away from their deserved traffic to their site and exposure, also they cant meter how many users downloaded it. Even if we just post the hotfile link they provide would be better than putting up a DB link, this way they can see how many US users are interested in the Epic4G. By doing this, maybe they will work more in future to get leaks for our phone because of the number of hits to their site, or the number on the hotfile counter.
Well the direct link is here, http://hotfile.com/dl/124888596/3935e47/D700EG22.rar.html , the password is samfirmware.com
Also I know some people feel that them saying for people to donate more from US, they are not demanding it. It cant hurt to ask, so I signed up for their one time premium deal.
Even though Im gonna DL the flashable version, Im gonna download it from their link.

Could you please stop trolling. Its literally all you do in the Epic4g section. I wouldn't be surprised if you didn't even own the phone.
Yeah let's thank them for an outdated 2.3.4 when 2.3.5 is the newest for gb and ics is the newest for all of android. Would you take the old model or the newer one...

And how many phones are even past 2.3.3? Better yet, 2.3.4?
But I do agree. Prlly 3 months. We've been getting "leaked" gingerbread roms since like may.
If they keep updating it behind the scenes, we're not going to see a real release because they're gonna keep "optimizing" it. Idk why you people always get excited about one. We get a new one everymonth. Nothings new.
Except maybe the *****ing that's gonna pop up because of stupid bugs like "OMG MY PHONE TAKES 1 SECOND TO SCREEN OFF WHEN I'M WATCHING YOUTUBE /life"

i agree that 2.3.4 isn't outdated yet because that is what the atrix just got.
and samsung still sucks so it won't be updated until probably october
Guess people have been showing their appreciation...

2.3.4 is not out on Verizon yet, the only way to upgrade to that is to root your phone.
As for ICS while Sony will release it for the Play in general, its up to Verizon to release for the phone. Based on how they basically forgot about it recently, and past performance, I wouldn't hold my breath.

I personally think they will release it, they released FroYo way after it was released for the LG Ally. But only time will tell...
thanks! do you no when 2.3.4 will be out on Verizon?

Is there a way to get the ICS update without unlocking your bootloader? Can you point me to a guide?

As stated before, there is high doubts that 2.3.4 will ever see a release for our phone. More than likely Verizon (if they decide to do it) will skip straight to ICS if and when they decide to make it available.

Off the top of my head, this is the only one I've tried in the past:

If you're looking for the legit update, we haven't gotten it yet; everything you see is simply based off of ROMs that are themed to ICS.

Or you can wait untill CM9 is officially released for the Xperia Play..
The guys at the Atrix 2 forum have found their leak too. Seems like Moto is really working on the updates. I hope we are next!

Indeed. This is a Froyo phone, no matter.the specs. Im grateful that Moto is going to give us official ICS. With ICS, we are going to get the new drivers that are going to work well on JB and maybe in the next Android release.

When the atrix was released gingerbread was already out, in all honesty, it should have come with gingerbread.

Im totally positive that they will help for JB, and judging from Android's past behavior with updates, im about 75% sure that they will also be good for Lime Pie (if thats the name for the next release of Android. These drivers are going to be good for Android 4.x.x, they will stop working for sure on Android 5.0. Thats going to be the end for the Atrix, at least with drivers. Thats just my guess tough.

Judging from Android's past behavior with updates, Key Lime Pie will be Android 5.0.
[Edit]
Upon further review you may be right. I certainly hope Key Lime Pie is Android 4.2 with driver compatibility with ICS/JB.

I have to agree with some of the others. My next upgrade is in February. Even I had an upgrade now I wouldn't use it yet. My Atrix has be great and there isn't any phone at the moment that really jumps out at me and says get me. The Atrix HD came close for me (want to stick with Moto because I love their hardware and software is finally starting to catch up). The only things that bother me with the Atrix HD is that because it is very similar to the Razr I'm worried about the battery life. Also, there is no Webtop. Webtop 3.0 was looking good and doesn't tax the cpu like the current version since essentially it is running in tablet mode. I'm kind of holding out to see if Moto does with the Atrix HD what they did with the Razr. The Atrix HD Maxx maybe. I would hope that they bring Webtop 3.0 to it and bring back the fingerprint scanner (fingerprint scanner not a deal breaker). Sorry got a bit off topic.
Hope we will see an OG Atrix leak soon.
Some people only want what they don't have. Don't have ICS therefore they want it.

After not getting gingerbread on the vibrant (the only galaxy s1 variant that didn't), it wouldn't surprise me if they didn't update this variant of the gs2 beyond ICS just to keep the streak alive of not fully supporting updates for Samsung phones on T-Mobile.

Amen Bro ! Thats why I love this site so much. It doesn't really matter what T-Mobile does so its kind of a pointless conversation. I would't really even take the KIES update or OTA update from T-Mobile anyways. I will wait untill someone here gets a good stable JB Release. I am reluctant to change because my ICS rom is so smooth and stable but I know within a few months it will be worth it. It's like a slap in the face to the slow and bloated T-Mo. Rom.

I wouldn't do a kies update either. My hope is for Samsung to release source so that the devs here have more to work with. That was what dogged the vibrant. They eventually released Froyo for it, but nothing further. The GB/ICS/JB releases for it were all ported from either the i9000 or the Nexus S, and had to be tweaked since there was no actual source to work with for the vibrant itself. That's why the GPS was so spotty on it on any version of android after Froyo. I'm glad that my insurance replacement for my busted Vibrant was the Hercules, which is still in the window of time (was it 18 months?) that they pledged to support upgrades to android. Whether we actually see it is another story. At least the devs here really kick some butt on the ROMs they release.
Just got JB on my tf300 2 days ago
Asus updates waaaay quicker than Samsung! Maybe later on I could get an Asus Phone.
