Mods. Please delete this. The date has already passed. FroYo will come out never. Done.

the skeptic in me will remain skeptical until i see something from sprint, but thank you for the info i have some hope since t-mo has their update available, maybe sprint will be more motivated to end the bad press and user backlash... time will tell.

Maybe a dev can choime in they always seem to have to inside track

Ecocee mentioned EA16 being a release candidate earlier in the week. Lets hope that we see something soon.
Funny, once some big-name websites (pcmag, yahoo finance, etc) started calling foul-play, Samsung and the carriers can magically get their updates out...

You are right! We should have made a stink back is November! Maybe the best thing to do from now on is to always raise a super-stink the minute a company misses their "promised" date. Then things get delivered!

I agree. It seems like things are finally coming around, but something still stinks behind the scenes. At the very least my guesstimate is that the updates were a very very low priority for either Samsung, the carriers, or both.

So when do we start the *****ing about not having Gingerbread? Wednesday morning?

I don't really care much about a timeline for Gingerbread atm. I just want to be able to test my own Adobe AIR apps on my own phone. Once I can do that, I'll be happy.

I doubt.it will be this Tuesday cause every article I read says they have no clue when update will be given just that it will be soon. This sounds like the 12/26 thing again where all these people had the inside informants and it was def. Happening. Look where that went

That's why I installed dk28. Air works great, just a teeny bit of lag when you start an app.

Just for the record,I never said Tuesday,and 12/26 was deffinitly the planned release date at one point. So I wouldnt doubt sources,things dont always work out... And just because the update is not in the playbook does not mean we wont see one next week OTA... But I will say this for sure, source "Talks around the water cooler say everyone should be updated by 1/31/2011",so that tells me that roll out should start on or before 1/26/2011,so Tuesday or Wednesday... Again Im not gonna call that the date this time,because I already see the flame throwers coming out of the wood work.
Oh,and I can promise you Gingerbread is being worked on also...

Edit: So this is pretty interesting. The Galaxy S International is supposed to get it mid April, which is pretty soon. The fact that they are already testing builds on Sprint is a good sign.
Edit2: First post from OP whose name is Epic2.3? Did you find this out and register to post it? If so, awesome.

I wonder who he is though! Some "samsungjohn" Type guy again? Either way, thanks

lol i'm almost dissapointed! i was looking forward to the CM7 build being created from the Nexus S rom.... almost but not. go sprint/samsung! i think getting a quick GB update would make the froyo debacle much more bearable. curious though... why 2.3 and not 2.4? i thought gingerbread officially made the transition to 2.4

Also gotta tell you few brave posters out there who were optimists about GB and its shortened development window were right. Wish I could remember specifically who it was but no more than 2-3 I'd guess, and I admit I wasn't one.

Lets hope it doesnt get released in a few months.

I agree, kind of. We had leaked versions of Froyo back in early November. Froyo wasn't officially released until mid March. Thats 4 months. Obviously there were complications (z4root) that caused major delays and the porting of Gingerbread shouldn't be nearly as difficult for Samsung, but . . . . you never know. If Gingerbread is launched officially in mid August, its still a major disappointment.

They haven't done much to deserve it. The least they could do at this point is confirm it to the public, not make people sit and hope.

Given the relatively short gap between these rdfs and actual updates in the past, I actually don't expect this to come months later. Maybe overconfident of me but the differences between Froyo and GB being supposedly much less than Eclair to Froyo, I think it looks good--maybe just weeks?

I for one will not be holding my breath

They aren't anything like the actual device. People swooned over this thing like a coming god. Now people just wanna talk smack about it. This is just a trip into Mr. Rogers land of make-believe.

You're right on the speculation... Nine times out of ten,the so-called facts are inaccurate.
But a big part of the fun of owning one of these gadgets is the excitement and speculation that goes around before they are released. We can't even imagine what's going to be available to us 6 months from now, and one of the best things about being a techie is seeing a device and having the bar raised for what we think is state-of-the-art. Why not have fun with that and put those future devices against what made our jaws drop 3 months ago?
Having said that, the only speculation that gets under my skin is updates. No one ever knows when they are coming, not even the so-called "insiders"... But people still throw out random months and quarters trying to sound like they're actually in the lab watching someone typing up code for it. LOL sheesh
Sorry for the ot post. The Vigor seems pretty cool.. lets hope it actually works, eh?

With all of the talk with the Moto Bionic how can one pass up on this beast HTC Vigor.

I just think a good measure of sanity is needed, consideration of history, and a dialing back on the dreamy factor. As for updates, the only people that but those or post those must have really sore knuckles from dragging them like an ape. I'm talking life forms slightly more evolved than tree stumps. They just drive me crazy and I can't resist messing with them.

Do you think that Verizon will allow early upgrade to the Vigor from the launch Incredible? Otherwise the first incredible people should be able to upgrade in January.

I've had the Inc since launch and my early upgrade status started in June...waiting to see whats rootable Motorola phones are out so HTC and Samsung are only candidates.
The Htc Touch Pro was my first Verizon Smartphone and it was a dog...people jumped on the Touch Pro2 like it was going out of style and then The Imagio now Android is the hot thing so who knows in October or later on this year I might put my Galaxy in my backpack with my Motorola s-10 headphones and use that as my cellular device.

CM10 update for Galaxy S3- Release soon!

Link
Guillaume Lesniak12:07 - Public
A status update about CM10 on Samsung devices:
- The Samsung Galaxy S III's ROM is somewhat ready. As far as we know, everything works (WiFi, Bluetooth, NFC, Video playback, Calls, Audio, 3G Data, Camera, ...). It is currently undergoing some internal tests to make sure everything is fine just by installing the update ZIP, so if something goes wrong make sure to blame +Pedro Carneiro ;-) No ETA available, we will release an experimental build when we feel like it's ready, so if everything is fine it could be hours or days, if something goes wrong it could be hours or days or weeks or months or years or centuries or millenniums.
(Oh and don't even think about asking for FM Radio)
- I just started to work on the Samsung Galaxy Note. Codeworkx and Espenfjo already started on the Galaxy S II, thus some of their work profits a lot for the N7000. I'll keep you informed either here or on twitter on how things goes.
- The Samsung Galaxy S II is in a very early state, we got it booting. But since the Note is very similar, that's a lot of shared work between those two devices.
Technically speaking, the "galaxys2" device tree will turn into "i9100" to fit with the Samsung naming convention we used everywhere else in CyanogenMod device trees, and a new galaxys2-common tree will appear.
We really have no ETAs for all these devices, we really go for a "When it's done" approach, even for the S3 ROM. It could be released tonight, the same way it could be released next week. It depends on our free time and on how things go around. As for the Note/S2, there's still many things to do before giving an estimate, so stay patient.
I hope this post will calm down people bugging Hacksung on Twitter regarding Galaxy devices and Jelly Bean ;-)

There is a lot of users out their now that have bought into their brand, and i'm thinking they're gonna do everything to keep them happy and away from Apple products.
Anyways, in the meantime, we are lucky buggers to have talented individuals in our community making ROMs and builds and generally making us smile.

Jelly Bean Update Rolling Out Tomorrow

http://brobuffet.com/2012/07/18/nexus-s-jelly-bean-roll-out-coming-tomorrow/

you know I just wanna put something out there... Google said mid-july (not sure if they said only for galaxy nexus or for all devices) but can anyone see the same thing happening with jelly bean as did with ICS? this is gonna be a brutal wait i guarentee....
I'm only saying this to jinx myself and hopefully the OTA comes tmrw.

This is just speculation.

Of course it's coming out tomorrow....just like it came out yesterday, the day before, on friday....because if Vodafone Australia says it's coming out tomorrow, that means it's true
I do hope it's gonna come out soon, but I doubt it's gonna be tomorrow, just because a provider says it is.

If a provider has set a time and date so close, I don't see why it wouldn't be released tomorrow. Yes, it is possible that the release may be delayed but I can't think why. Manufacturers have had early access to Jelly Bean so it's about time some devices received updates.
EDIT : There have been no other official claims of an official release. Mid-July is all people had to go on. But people started making silly guesses. Many thought it would be released on the 4th or the 13th. But there was little reason for this.

My bad. But I fail to see any threads in the Nexus S General Forum :S There is one regarding a French carrier.

Yes, they said mid-july for all devices.
Difference to ICS: We have an announced release-date (more or less exact). Last time they shipped 4.0.3 as a surprise, pulled it after a few days and then remained silent for 3 months until 4.0.4 came out.
Big difference.

There won't be anymore announcements.. Google already said mid-July.. The last announcement they will probably do will be the day that OTA will start, but they don't need to... And I'm not sure why would Vodafone lie with it to gain more costumers (or buy Nexus S), since you can't buy it from providers already

just a recap what vodafone says.
I dont get why everyone feels the need to open up a new thread about this instead of going to the countdown thread! You guys seriously need to think about your lifes. Get out, do something fun and for god'S sake leave your computer or xda untouched for a day. It's really not healthy to be so obsessed about JB. I'm excited, too but i'd rather go for a sunbath than sitting in front of my computer waiting for an ota which does not come.
Why are you even so excited about what a carrier or a french blog says? I don't give a single sh... about them. I'm just interested in what google says. Don't get your hopes up cause of this! You will most likely just be disappointed. Same thing with these screenshots about the 4.0.4 ota with this date. Everyone is so damn sure that JB will be pushed when we hit this date. So, OTA is expected to hit us FOR SURE!!! every day since like the 8th...
Long story short: CHILL OUT!!

We are at least as insane as iPhone users. except we are not sleeping in the street waiting for a new phone, we are staying awake waiting for a freaking OTA! At first i did that too but to be honest after a few days it gets way too pathetic for me. I enjoy my life outside the house. Thats how I wait! and i can recommend that!

Guess we all love the Nexus S...I was anxious too when going from GB to ICS. Best is left time roll and get JB when time comes not beeing a priority... But that comes with age though
