For the record cm7 is not a leak. A leak comes from companies... in a round about way. CM7 is built ground up.
But I agree with the post above none the less. We will likely never see an official2.3 on fascinate.

Let's not make an assumption right now. For last couple months, did we ever thought of getting Froyo? No hell we didnt. One thing I can say is carrier doesn't include "update to date" in contract and they don't have to. It is up to Verizon to move their stupid ass bloats and let Sammy take care of this, but it's gonna take Verizon to lose money.

Thank you that's what I was looking for. The leak is rumored to be floating around by this weekend.

...not for the Fascinate. Don't confuse it with the Galaxy S (i9000). That is the international version, and if you flash anything meant for that onto your Fascinate, you won't be happy.

That has nothing to do with our phones.
If samsung intended to upgrade us to gingerbread they would tell us. We knew since September that we WOULD get froyo, we just didn't know when.
And im pretty sure the op still doesn't know what a leak is.

I remember reading somewhere that the press release mentions the Galaxy S phones in the US. Shouldn't that include our phone as well the the other variants in the country?

As its been proven in the past though,a release for the i9000 can prove useful to us as well. There may be things included that could nudge along CM7 or Kaosinate.

True, but it is not a leak. Sammy and vzw haven't even suggested they will attempt a release for the fascinate. Which would lead me to suspect there is no one working on it and therefore no leak possible. Now with froyo they did.

Perhaps we like the phone? Also maybe we don't want to sign a new contract with verizon and don't want to shell out big bucks for a new phone at the poor of contract price.

I have yet to find another android phone with a form factor that I like as well as the Eris. It fits well in my hand, the buttons are placed nicely and it's a great size for me & my tiny hands. With it rooted & OC'd it runs how I want. I also don't have it on a V contract, I have it on PagePlus and only download & stream when on WiFi saving me ALOT of money.
So I have a great smartphone that does all of what I need, most of what I want, and it fits me perfectly in form and function.
And that is why I still own an Eris.
Didn't this Guy already post a thread like this elsewhere.

Because they are rediculously bad ass considering you can get them on craigslist for less than $100 in some cases.
It was also a VERY popular phone so there are a lot of goodies and rom's that have been developed.
And it runs Froyo very well. So the only things a new phone can do for an Eris user is really more proc and RAM. And I don't really 'need' those things right now.

I didn't repost this thread. A moderator must hasn't done this. Maybe they want you to really think about why you like your phone. I loved the Eris. I just have moved on to bigger and better things. My logic for asking the question was not to be a smart a$$, but to suggest that other Eris owners make the switch. Sorry if it offended anyone. You will not see any more posts from ME in this forum.

HELP PLEASE! What would happen if I flashed the captivate froyo leak? Brick?...

So everyone knows about the leaked froyo rom for the vibrant, and I'm sure it's a just a matter of time now until one of the great devs ports it to the vibrant, but I was wondering if it was possible to flash the captivate rom to a vibrant without bricking? I know it would change the baseband and radio so I suppose the answer is yes, thanks for any help in advance.

I would not tempt fate--let one of our esteemed devs do their magic...seems like trying to run a Honda Accord powerplant in a Honda CRV. There is a reason there are different programs/roms/etc. for different phones.

If you don't see now and then apps or mods floating around with people conveting one thing to another what makes you think its going to work right out of the box? Even if it doesn't brick your phone its not going to work 100% anyways.

[Q] Any news on the OTA ICS Update for the Thunderbolt?

It's been a while since I've heard anything.
I really can't wait for it to be available to us rooted users
Maybe if you ask three more times, there'll be an update.

Verizon Tech Support says ICS on Thuderbolt
I talked to a tech for Verizon because I was having issues with my Thunderbolt. I got onto the subject of ICS and she said that the update is being pushed and that she has it on her personal Thunderbolt. Can anyone confirm ICS push on Thunderbolt yet?

Yeah if it were really being pushed, it would be all over every android blog out there, and my Twitter would be going apesh*t.
Besides, ICS for the tbolt wasn't announced that long ago, so the chances of it being ready to push are... well 0%

as for my own personal experience, the Verizon techs are less intelligent and skilled then 99% of the people in these forums. the only answer I ever got out of them was "send it to us for warranty replacement", or "you must do a factory reset and then call us if the problem doesn't go away". One of them replied to my question about ICS with "what is Ice Cream Sandwich"
I prefer choco tacos over ice cream sandwich anyways... By the time that gets pushed, well probably take advantage of our new upgrades.

Yup. The "may 10th" release is most likely the final version of the recent gingerbread 2.11.605.19 leak.

Won't mean much for this phone since it doesn't have a functioning AOSP RIL.

Well if you mean towards jelly bean, yes and no. I don't think we can get aosp jb as their wont be a kernel for it. I think since JB is closely related to ICs versus the big difference between GB and ICS that it wont be as hard to go from one to the other
Correct me if I am wrong here. Trying to answer based on what I skim and read.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda app-developers app
Actually yes, Chad is working on the kernel/RIL issue. I talked to Dmaedows on twitter informed him of it, it was the first he heard of Chad's working on it. Tweeted back later, it seems the two are going to work together, or at the very least Dmeadows is going to merge his fixes with Chad to make something useable.
But as always, remain cautiously optimistic, no promises.
http://www.twitlonger.com/show/i7dae2
I doubt we'll get a fully working JB port any time soon, few months at best.
Last I read on the ICS RIL was the kernel source was needed so we are stuck waiting for the update to be release and the source to be posted on HTC's dev site shortly afterwards...
No idea if that's truly the hold up, just something I saw awhile back.
guys yes rils are done. Currently waiting on kernel source to do anything.

A farewell.

Hi all.
My wife's phone recently played out for the third time within a year (D2). When they replaced it this time they sent her a completely different phone.
Well she liked my DX2 better so I got the other (sam strat) phone. I had planned on moving to another phone in the not so distant future but looks like I got moved sooner then I thought. (Still gonna get a different phone in the near future)
The DX2 community on here is incredible, and I am sure that goes without saying and everyone of you guys and gals know that! I will miss my phone and the community but it's time to move on I suppose. I wish you all the best, I am sure I will stop in from time to time to check up on things.
DK, your an awesome Dev. and I think more so then that you seem to be a super guy from what one can get to know someone else through communicating over the internet / forums. Thanks man for all your time and effort!
GL all.
Don't be a stranger and be sure to stop in from time to time. When I got my Gnex, the thought crossed my mind that I may not frequent the DX2 community as much. But I just can't let it go. Other areas here on XDA just don't offer what is abundant here. By far the best on the web, hands down.
Best of luck in your future endeavors...neighbor!

Guess I will see you over on rootzwiki then? They have a forum for the Stratosphere. Rooting+flashing isn't so bad once you learn how to use odin. It's definitly a lot easier rooting the x2, but oh well. Still stuck with 2 or 3 roms too which are all tweaked versions of stock because the radio interface layer is locked by samsung. They say we're supposed to get ICS(only reps, no official updates), but won't give out any dates or anything. Oh well.
I reccommend tweaked 2.2. Pretty awesome!
