True. I'll flash it just to say I have froyo for a minute though.... LOL!

I'm downloading now, I don't believe it's Froyo though. We'll see, I hope I'm wrong!

Look at it this way, by the time you get a chance to flash you'll know if it's worthwhile.

SRE on the way!

Yeah hopefully this build doesn't screw with your EFS data =P I already backed the files up *just* in case
Also for anyone trying this, make sure you snag your phones unlock code JUST in case before applying this. Don't take any chances

I have dual downloads going.... who makes it first? Can't wait to get home.

Samsung-Firmware (oops Samfirmware) says that this is a 2.2 ROM. We need a guinea-pig. Paging Zilch25

SWEET! I was just thinking. Too bad Froyo is in the wild but all the cool hacks have to start all over.

Lol this sucker was downloading literally 10 seconds after I saw the post
116MB out of 190. SLOWEST 15 MINUTES EVER

Bah! I'm still below 100mb.

have fun. i have no way to download. i'm stuck tethering to my vogue.
anyone have split-bootimg.pl and extract-ramdisk from vogue hero?
unpack-bootimg.pl is giving me
Code:
[email protected]:~/desktop/boot$ ./unpack-bootimg.pl boot.img
Found a secondary file after the ramdisk image. According to the spec (mkbootimg.h) this file can exist, but this script is not designed to deal with this scenario.

Take out the /lib when it sets up the Library path. And make sure you don't modify /system/lib

As much as I don't believe this.. I'm going to test this out..Get back to ya.
I'm mildly skeptical as well. Sadly, I'm going to wait for someone else to brick their phone first...if the update even passes sign checks. Sorry, don't believe it

I'm not worried about bricking my Eris, as I don't even use it anymore. So I'll attempt to flash this as soon as it's done downloading from that crappy, slow host.

if you want to test put it on your sd card in your phone then place the card back in your phone and boot it up by holding power and call, pretty easy from there
no you hold volume down and power when booting after putting the zip in the root of your sd card
hboot will show up white with green text
let it run, tell it to install, follow the steps done.

I guess I'll let you know if it works. Don't take the risk.
I have an Eris I don't use.
I was able to download it but am looking for input from other members prior to putting this on my only currently working phone. Viva la 2.1 (maybe)!!!!

seems to be real...... just cannot get it to flash

(ignore) Verified FRF50.

its been verified as the frf50 leak. thanks for the verification. if anyone else wants to test/try feel free to
I was told by a source that this is what HTC will be sending out as froyo. you must have 2.1 installed and if you install this YOU WILL LOSE ROOT
I have not tested this yet. and i dont have an nexus one. im about to port to the evo to see what exactly this bad boy has.
the source reports many fixes that are not included with the leaks. once again i cant verify this. to developers, i recommend tearing this apart and loading it as an update.zip without the recovery. load the patches the same way.
it does seem to have some differences from what i have seen. If you brick/lose root/blow up your house, please dont blame me
report findings back here or do w/e you want with it. ill update with what i find on the evo.
Official Froyo
Anyone check it out yet?
i'll try, i'll report if this rom is good
change the topic title though, don't make it seem like an official update...when its untested and unverified...just sayin.
its only 44megs dosnt that seem a little small considering that frf50 about 70megs
edit: nevermind that was a rooted build i remembered seeing the size on ill be quite now
ok after second review this looks very clean. it seems to add alotttt to what you all had in the leaks.
im still working on the patch files but from looks of it, i think you all are gonna be happy.
btw if a dev can get me a update.zip of the patch files it would help me out alottt. as its nearly impossible to get the patchs ported without the full files
changed title name.

what do you mean updare? like a said up top. idk if this is real or not. thats why i asked you all to verify it. if someone verifys its fake ill take it off and ill find out who the source is.
the guy who provided it to me has posts here on xda and joined in 2009. so i dont see why he would provide me with a fake

From Google Translate:
New Android 2.2 Firmware I9000XXJP2 (27-Jul-2010)
The I9000XXJP2 is still being tested by our Russian friends, and should soon (possibly today) on http://samsung-firmware.webs.com be published.
The description of the firmware is already confusing, because "P" means the 16th Months of the year .... July is really "G".
If someone faster than I should be: please post here the download link! Thank you.

UPDATE: it is about samsung-firmware.webs.com tomorrow (July 28th) around noon (13 hours to go ").

It will be on Keis for anyone set to the XX region. Samsung-firmwares does not have the firmware yet, that is bs. Samsung leaked the news of release today. He will download it to his phone, back it up, then reupload it to his site.
Excited to see those numbers. But wouldn't get the hope up too high. Wth all the 3rd party fixes pushing the limit, I wonder how froyo will compare.

This will be on KIES in September. He's already flashed it and posted screenshots so your talking a load of crap.
I am not trying to get any one upset, But look again mate, those pics are from Samsung he even said so. Why do you think he will not upload now if he had it. You do not know the guy do you... He is one of the reasons, Samsung blocked the server so no one can get the firmwares before they release them. He does not "release firmware" he copies them and re posts them.
I found this also, looks like a go!

That is after the announcement.
-------
It seems that we get a TWLauncher shell wrapped around Froyo. Does this mean that we don't get the nice desktop I see on pictures of, for example, the Nexus One?
I'm confident we'll see a Froyo release as stated.
As to the origins of the firmware - who cares! It's a working Froyo build that can be pulled apart by the chefs, it may even be able to form the basis of a AOSP build.
Thanks for the news.

What is that a old ass RUU? Looks kinda new wasn't there when I set my noob guide up for noobies rooting and such.
Anyone seen this. What is it? Just a quesiton im not new to the RUU thing
And it may not be anything just curious so try not to shart your selfs.
Found my answer checked it out on PC geeks its a leaked version of GB im guessing didn't know that was a RUU werid.
Weird all the other ones have a .EXE extension and this one has a .ZIP . I could be wrong but maybe its just the GB leak that came out a few weeks ago
