I am the recent owner of an 8525 and I haven't had a pda since my hadnspring prism back in the day. I know I will have a plethora of questions so I thought before I crushed the server with all my posts I would say howdy!
Howdy!
:-D

Before you get shown the door.. Before you post your plethora of questions, R*E*A*D the WIKI and S*E*A*R*C*H the forums for answers to your questions!
Oh, and HI, Welcome! Just please.. Don't be a ****wit.. We have enough of those already

Welcome
Many questions you may have will hopefully have been answered already. On this forum we have a search facility on the brown bar above and there's a google search on a sticky also above.
There are also links to the Hermes Wiki for more established information.
Enjoy
Cheers
Mike

I guess I should have said i don't plan on being a knob. I try to reserve questions to those I can't find answers for. I am a fairly technical guy so I know how it is to be asked a ton of rtfm type questions. <3

Well, seemingly "knobs" are ok it's only "****wits" that will not be tolerated!!! I'm trying to decide if the latest forum member falls into the later category -

Sprint Announces Froyo for EVO Aug 3

Who will be the FIRST to come out with the rooted ROM?!?!
Who will scrap their rooted phone to goto Froyo...

I also found my flux capacitor!!!

there is already a buttload of thread of this why is this in the Developer section again

yo... your thread is gonna get deleted or moved. They moved over 14 threads yesterday just like this one. The question has been answered and the polls are in. Goto the General Section...not the android development area. Devs dont like this kind of nonsense.

There should be a poll on how many of these threads will open before the release...

*Sigh*

per Webster it doesn't look like this thread belongs in Development. But hey what do I know?

i say 16 more threads before people get the hint that nothing will be discussed about it on the development site. got my fingers crossed

LOL.....
Add this to the other 30 some odd other threads........

Froyo on it's way

Saw this today and hope it's for real.
In the mean time Bionix Final with Core V1 is the bomb.
Thanks Whiskey guys.
http://www.examiner.com/gadgets-in-...-froyo-update-will-hit-u-s-by-end-of-november

Why r they kept using the UK news for US version

And how exactly did the examiner get that a tweet from Samsung UK would have anything to do with T-Mobile US? They based their article on incomplete information and conjecture.
Real journalism is dead

I feel the flame is coming

Why do they keep using the U K news as source for the USA release ?

Im with you man, BS or not who gives a damn. Even the flamers hope its real as do we. If it happens it happens. I just want the source code, could care less about the actual update.

Others are reporting that samsung started the role out today in the UK and we all should have it by the end of the month.

The >>UK<<
The >>I9000<<
Those are your keywords, this isn't for us. It is for the I9k in the UK
We will receive it when we do. Case Closed

That's not what that article says at all! Unless by "we" you mean you are in the UK and you are talking to all of the UK users here, which are none, because we are in a US phone forum.
It's Samsung UK tweeting that it's started rolling out today and all Samsung UK handsets should have it by the end of the month.
Haven't we been through this like 10 times already?!

Samsung & carrier fees reason for Froyo delays?

I do not know how accurate, truthful or factual this person is, but their post explains why we don't have Froyo yet - basically US carriers have to pay more for feature updates rather than maintenance updates, and Samsung insists Froyo is a feature update but carriers insist is a maintenance update being that Google did the majority of the work:

If this is the case (and it kind of makes sense) I am quite disappointed in all parties concerned. What the heck.

These posts keep getting taken down by the mods. Cut the guy some slack! He didn't know. My post on this had over 1,000 views and over 30 comments and still got taken down. I mean, we're all clamoring for ANY news on Froyo. I mean, what else do we have to talk about here? Rooting or installing the Froyo hack?
Honestly, OP, I like and can't get enough of the "Where's Froyo?" posts either. Why? Any news at all is worth a read for me. I want my Froyo!

Please search before making a new thread. There are numerous threads discussing this same topic.

Do we have any indication that Samsung and/or SamsungJohn are hearing us???

I didn't want to pollute the issues thread (and I commend the ones that started it). I am just curious if we have any indication that Samsung and/or SamsungJohn hear us???
This forum could be a GREAT way to feedback directly to Samsung and give them input on their software (if they are indeed serious about fixing it). They could even use a portion of the XDA population (those that are capable) for beta testing and feedback since their beta testers seemed to miss quite a few big bugs, some that have been known to us for MONTHS.
Like I said, I commend the effort, just wondering if we KNOW (for a fact) that the right eyes see your work.

Not a bad idea, but I don't want to unnecessarily flood his PM box if someone here knows.
I wonder if he even checks it any more??? He hasn't posted in a little while.

Try tweeting him

It's not that we're celebrating or anything. It's just many of us saw this coming from Samsung. I promise I'm not rubbing it in.
