so while being bored and browsing xda i came across the nexus forum about ics 4.0 so im happy we have cyanogenmod 7 and but looking into the specs of nexus i know someone here can do it or at least try to port it but come on. We are the epic and we need ics 4.0
ps here is the forum http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1402341
thanks

First thing you need to learn is that DEVs do this for FREE AND they have families, lives and jobs. Whining because Google updated a Google phone to ICS and not the Epic is not the way to get answers around here. You want to learn? Learn to port and learn about Touchwiz and start working on it yourself. I have spent hours just porting icons from one theme to another, imagine rebuilding an entire ROM? And another thing we don't NEED ICS. Does your phone work? Can you get to your email? What does your phone need from ICS to function? These threads are non-productive.
If you are bored spend hours on the phone with Sprint and try to convince them to trade your Epic for a Nexus.

Let me rephrase his question for you people who obviously don't know what a context clue is.
"Hello my fellow XDA'ers, I was searching for ICS and stumbled upon this thread on the Nexus S that explains they have ICS? Now this has me baffled because the nexus s is similar to our epics sans a keyboard, yet samsung stated our epics can't handle it? This is ridiculous! I don't mean to sound rude and I give many props to the devs who finally ported cm7 but let's be real guys. ICS is where its at and if the nexus s can run it, then what's this bullcrap that the epic can't? I'm sure you guys will be able to do something about it eventually. Here's thethread for reference."
But alas, op, our devs know its bull**** but there's nothing they can do right now. There's an ICS port of the sdk google released that boots but that's about it. I mean, we have the stepping stones just no one has been willing (and. Rightfully so) to step up to the plate an finish the job

I'm going to take this post home and make love to it. I might even call it in the morning for breakfast.
Agreed, well said, but don't overlook that our dev's recent success with cm7 may very well lead to cm9 not too far delayed from any other cm-supported device.
So while nothing anyone says on here will likely impact the final outcome, we can all silently hope and cheer on devs for cm9.
Inb4l.
Also, our "main devs"(take that as you will) are working on ics.

Hey guys-
I was wondering if anybody would be willing to create an easy to install froyo rom for the vibrant that could be installed through rom manager? If it's possible and someone would be willing to take on the challenge I and many other noobs out there would be much ablidged. Thanks in advance.

CM 6 is coming. For now enjoy the great job done so far
if you take a look at other threads under this forum, there has been work at porting 2.2 to this phone. Some difficulties in getting a fully functional build. I would recommend using the search function before starting a new thread, especially when posting under development, as you'll prolly get flamed pretty heavily.

It does exist. It was the international Froyo leak but it is not a complete Froyo since it is missing JIT as well as other things. That leaked ROM is incomplete and is not stable for everyday use. Especially on a Vibrant, there are a lot of bugs with it and it is not recommended to be using it as the daily ROM.
It's better off waiting for 2.2 to release by Samsung or the CM team. It's just around the corner. Be patient.

Exactly - there is no Froyo rom that is much easier to install than the leaked int'l one, let alone a stable one. What he's asking for doesn't exist. There's no secret, stable, froyo.zip floating around that people just aren't talking about.

So far theres not an easy way to get a fully functional 2.2 however as with anything give it time and we will see it some time.
i do believe that everyone on here wants that including all the developers working on it. if we were happy with 2.1 then we would have stuck with the original os that samsung put out for the vibrant. really did you have to ask this here? or at all? its technology its always growing. give it time!

Also fyi there I am not poking fun at the sgs phones.

Thus, further proving my point that the OPs question was valid. ROMs are coming out daily and managing to get 2.3 running on a Hero (quite possibly the least suitable phone for 2.3 in regards to hardware) furthers the validity of the OPs question.
what is wrong with people being greddy with updates?when we were on 2.1 ppl gt angry and want 2.2 even if our phones wasbetter than everything else on 2.2 wen were on 2.1..now we are tasting 2.2 everyone wants 2.3?wtf is wrong with u guys?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
My expectations are high for having 2.3 on Epic sooner than later, given the similarities innhardware with Nexus S. I know there is more to it than just copying it over from another device, but I would hope It would be faster than the time it took for us to get Froyo.
Seeing the Hero run it is just amazing. I mean, I would expect Evo up there as one of the first, but not Hero.
Keep supporting and encouraging our devs and soon we will see it!
You would be amazed at how fast this runs on a hero, the queen of lagging. You all are in for a treat when it does get ported or released.

Your kidding right! You crack me up. Just cause it boots up on a hero it is far from fully functioning and they even said without source many things won't even work. It is very unstable. I got an idea, why don't you start porting it over since you have high expectations. I'll be here waiting for your beta! What a waste of time :~) You need at least Gingerbread OTA or source in order to get that Hero fully functioning!

Never once did I say that I was running a fully functional version of 2.3 on my Hero, but back to the OPs remark.
"Is it possible to make a custom rom with android 2.3 for samsung epic?"
I do have a custom rom with android 2.3 running on my hero. So, yes, it is very possible. Now will the devs working on the Epic do this? Maybe not.
I would be willing to bet that I run a 2.3 ROM way before any of you will thanks to the kind devs working with the Hero.
With that being said, I apologize for stumbling on the Epic forum while trying to help a friend root his device. You may go on with your life bashing those who ask repeat questions. I would like to take this time to thank the majority of you for convincing me not to use my upgrade on the Epic if not only for the sole reason of lack of support. I will happily wait for a dual core A9 powered device to come out and stick to my dysfunctional Hero!

I'm not doubting you in any way I'm just the type of person who will always give it a try. I'm only 15 and not exactly to good at deving or anything yet, buti am learning. I know that dastin is the expert porter here but his life is hectic right now. I can't promise anything at all, butif someone could point me in the direction of where to learn how to port, I could give it a go. Who knows, maybe I can get it started on the way and one of the more experienced devs can hammer it out. Worth a shot, eh. Sorry for my poor English, I'm still getting used to my to keyboard.
the thing is its not that there impossible it just seems like all he does is scavenge other forums looking for wierd stuff to port like the other day when he was asking someone to do the miui port from the mt3g and he didnt even bother reading the thread because 2 posts down they were complaining that it was just a themed rom and not miui.

in fact he could only have meant that post since that's the only post jamie has made on xda since the flurry of posting activity that irritated the xda people in the first place.
hardly what i would call posting "regularly", especially since he explicitly says it's his last post ever on xda unless some site administrators explain their response.
i don't really have a dog in that fight. i just liked the way reloaded runs on my phone and appreciate jamie's dedication in making that happen. if more ROMs come, i'll flash them. if i have to find them on twitter, i'll find them. for now i wish him well, even if i expect he isn't going away for long.
He'll be back

XDA does seem to over-react sometimes,but you need to figure that we have alot of easily influenzed minds here in XDA(kids)we're their piers and XDA is just trying to hold some order in here,it keeps people from *****in and complaining soo much,noone wants to come to a forum where all there is,is flamming and griping about this and that,yea some or most bans,could have been handled different,but we dont own this forum,we just reside here temporarily,you should know this,Hip.

Yeah yeah, no doubt!
I dunno why the link didn't work, but if you look at his profile, and click on statistics and then posts, you can see he's still posting and not banned. If anything, it's Rope that's banned, not Jamie

It looks more like the decision was Jamie's to leave XDA, not the mods. It has happened several times before where the Dev's asked the Mods to close their threads because of the drama that goes on in them. If he were banned, his account would be frozen and his threads would all be closed.
Calm down guys Check this out. You can also follow him on twitter here

Thank you kendall. I think jrollercoasters started this for everyone to say positive things about Jamie's contributions to us and our device, not speculate on what happened. Let's all just give him thanks we think he may deserve as I believe that is what this thread was intended for.
If you want to know what happened, ask the man.
@jrollercoasters: if I am off base about this then please correct me and I'll back off.
