SamsungJohn

Wasn't he supposed to make some kind of announcement on Monday according to his thread? Thought something was in the works and was hoping for more since the other thread got closed.

He did say that and I've been watching all day for this "announcement"

good things come to those who wait.. just chill

Just hoping he didn't get banned from posting since the thread got closed by a Senior moderator. Thats all, I'm not impatient, but really excited to hear what he has to say.

All threads in all forums (not just Epic's) by John were locked by 'upper management' so to speak with XDA, so I'm guessing they didn't like the initial approach of things for whatever reason. I PM'ed him earlier today myself and asked about it for curiosity's sake and he said 'we' were in talks with XDA and he hoped to be able to post some details again soon in a new thread. Without being privy to the particulars of all that, my guess is that they'd prefer him be isolated to some higher level 'general' XDA forum and all interaction/feedback occur in one central thread than have a separate thread with every device of theirs. But that's purely a guess on my part.

Lol don't hold your breath

I dont want to believe this, but it makes me wonder.
His last activity was 6:49 today, so I doubt he is gonna make any post regarding what he promised.

He's got 4 hours until its no longer Monday. He is in Texas, so its around 8PM there now. I sure hope "politics" doesn't get in the way of him making his announcement or whatever.

Did anyone really think that this was going to turn into something great? I mean really? Samsungs track record for putting customers first has been proven time and time again, long before the galaxy line and long before cell phones. Not only that, look at XDA from the eyes and view of a large corporation such as Samsung... not just from the view of a dev, themer, consumer. If you've ever worked for a larger corporation/company who's main priority is profit and remaiming current and ahead of the competition you probably understand. One main priority is keeping products and control over those products within your reach, not within the reach of the consumer.

No one expects anything good from Samsung. We can at least hold on to a little bit of hope that they may change though. From MWC:
"Samsung did make a promise about upgrades, though, with reps saying that the ongoing disaster involving upgrading the current Galaxy S line to Android 2.2 "will never happen again.""

Hope I get. Acting like Samsung John was the next coming of Christ is another thing (again, not just on the Epic forums). I was hopeful as well that Samsung would get it, but the Epic is soon to be old news, to me at least.
And yes, I'm sure samsung gets it. NOW they get it. I take that to mean they won't make the same mistakes on the SG2 line that they made on our phones.

Its another disappointment from Samsung and John we got used to that story. It seems like there is a big problem epic and froyo getting along so they want some help from xda dev cuz sprint can't get their things together and who knows the deal is already made.

Sounds like a sucker move to me. They say it wont happen again to suck you into buying a a new phone with the same support, only to drop support for the last line of devices. Not buying it Mr Samsung.
As soon as another competitor has a device that has even within reasonable specs at the same time of launch, they are gonna notice why their failure has come to a reality with their next device release.

Lol.
Yano, the cynic in me, as I'm sure is true with some other people, (and I hope its not lost on those people either) believes his lack of a post today is intentional. Remember, he is a social media "analyst". Looking for what type of reactions he would get for breaking such a small "promise" sounds like a pretty good barometer to gauge just how accurate the "mass feelings of resentment" for samsung for not getting us an update sooner is.
Do believe he's the real deal? Yes, and I'm confident he will post with his details later. But I'm pretty sure he's holding off just to watch us, and see how much we hold people to verbal commitments.
We're all lab rats.
But that's just the cynic in me talkin

Ok.....ill take one for the team

Samsung, AT&T holding event on May 5

Per CNET blog:
excerpt -
"...and now a press conference on May 5, co-hosted by AT&T and Samsung.
The two companies just sent out invites to the event, which will take place in New York starting at 1 p.m, PT, but revealed few details about what they will discuss. The invite does indicate that there will be product demos, so it's pretty safe to assume that we'll see a new phone or perhaps a tablet?
There are a couple of possibilities. It could be the Samsung Galaxy S II, which was announced at Mobile World Congress 2011, but our Android Atlas blogger Scott Webster believes it will be AT&T's version of the Nexus S..."

Infuse 4G, nexus s?

It's probably for that 4.5" Samsung phone (Infuse 4G). It has a Super AMOLED Plus display, but isn't dual core...

Wish it's GS2, I feel Infuse will not be a popular device.

How are people customizing the Moto X Already?

I went to the Moto X site, and I had to sign up and wait for an email notification to do any customization or pre-ordering. Is anyone actually pre-ordering this thing yet?

Untrue. They haven't opened to anybody yet. The only people who have been able to order so far are those part of the MotoMaker BETA through the friends and family program, and the press. And the majority of them haven't shipped out yet.

What you don't seem to understand is that the two programs are separate. There was a employee referral program for family/friends last week who got to order last week on Aug 14, and then a different program for att customers who were able to order on Aug 19. Even though the att testers ordered already this week, none of those phones will ship out because the phones from referral program have not shipped out yet due to delays.

Interesting. I was told that Motorola was holding off on it until they get the pending orders shipped. It appears even those who have ordered through signing up with ATT, haven't had theirs ship out yet, so I misunderstood. I'm hoping mine ships out tomorrow as per their email regarding the slight delay.

this would also explain how there is 1 report from 1 person who got their MotoMaker made Moto X.

Sort of figured you were going to refer to one of the reviews. The press and VIP obviously got priority and manually bypassing whatever production problems manually to get those orders done and shipped out in a timely manner. Otherwise I doubt moto wants to deal with bad press. The rest of us are stuck in limbo right now as they won't send out until they fix those problems. Keep in mind that these pre-release programs are meant to be a beta test to see if they can handle a few hundred orders coming for the exact reason of working out mass production issues before launch.

I'm just giving you the facts bro. You think Apple, Samsung, or any other oem just builds a production line, flips a switch, and everything works fine the first run? Moto knows exactly what they are doing, because this isn't their first rodeo and that's why you have test runs before launch to work things out. The only difference here is the motomaker requires customization, so it requires actual customers to simulate a test run. Whereas creating just all black and white phones can be done internally, which is why you never hear anything about those.

Man when Samsung shoots itself in the foot it really makes sure to use an AK47 and shoot the crap out of it.

So you are saying the next build will be ANK47.

And remember...that is just the international version...US Carriers will still be weeks or more behind that release.

assuming the person who wrote that article even knows what he is talking about; I didn't see any mention of an "official Samsung announcement"..

Not true already been comfirm by sources that this is incorrect infor, they stated that oculo does not get to modify the kernel let alone deleyed an updat. Also mant samsung reps stated we dhould receive lollipop this week.. multiple reps. Do thats a better jope.

O welll. Done waiting for It anyways. I'm rooting my device as soon as I can. Screw you lollipop. I would rather have my gear vr function properly than to have 5.0

Well I dont know about you peeps but I am actually buying the Oculus, so this delay doesnt quiet bother me, especially considering cm12 is running pretty well.

This delay has nothing to do with oculus why dont you guys do research before posting. Just another thread to get people the wrong idea to their heads..

BAD ASS NOTE 4 + BAD ASS GEAR S

agreed; Samsung never gave a specific date that they guaranteed this would be released to any of the US carriers..
reading/believe any thing on the internet just leads to false hope and disappointment, so my advice it to pay ZERO attention to anything you read about it on the internet, and if you want Lollipop so badly, there are several nice AOSP roms in the forums that will satisfy that craving for now.

thats likely the case, so whoever adds the least bloat,(TMO) should have it out first, but who knows when that will be.

5.1 update should be darn close to rollout now!

Asus support has confirmed on the app that the Zenfone 2 5.1 update is under final testing phase.
Here is the Source.
So, it's reasonable to expect Asus to begin the rollout within a week or two. What do you think?

I hope so because 5.0 it's very buggy...

It generally takes every oem six months on average to push a new version of Android. Granted, this phone has been on the market a while, but less than 2 months for the US versions.

I hope that the battery drain, and heating issue will be solved by asus in 5.1

cant wait for this to drop guys,

I hate to say this, but this post is referring to a blog where the guy speculates and provides a chat screen as proof. That being said, I am optimistic that Asus will update us to 5.1 shortly but posting fake reports does nothing but create false hope. The blog referred to is just that a blog and the proof it provides, is just a guy asking the question and we have no proof that the other side of the conversation is an actual employee of Asus tech support...
I think it will happen pretty soon but if it does not, I am completely fine with my phone the way it is currently, as I am sure most of you are too.

Never ever go by what some chat rep says lol. What makes anyone think they actually have any idea as to when testing is done and when OTA releases can be expected?

Agreed.

Asus provides a year or two of Android updates to its devices. We will get 5.1 eventually and even Android M when that drops. Past that, it's up to the community to develop.

Don't know whether Asus will really release the update or not but this hell made its way to a lot of reputed websites Even if it is not true , Asus would be pressurized to roll-out the update as these reputed websites posted this news

Yeah but those sites are just like our cable news channels.... Fox reports something then Cnn and Msnbc report what Fox reported. I just goes to show that people will report anything for the sake of reporting something.
I would also like to apologize to itskapil for my previous post. I did not mean to bash his reporting of the blog on our site but rather wanted to challenge the validity of the source, and that is all. I appreciated the reporting of any info on our phones.
