So it's t mobile, verizon, sprint AND att, but not samsung? Ok, yeah that makes sense.

Why is it taking all these lazy slow "devs" so long... 4 other phones have gingerbread ports.... I guess they are too busy asking for donations

samsung has changed their plan.
We're gonna get WP7 instead of Android in the next FW update.

Oh shut up. Our developers here are no different than other devices in regards to donations. It is more difficult to port ROMs to Galaxy S phones then most other devices.

You're certainly welcome to show these "slow devs" how it's done. C'mon what are you waiting for? What? Can't do better? Didn't think so.

lucky for us, the Nexus S is close close to our SGS that it will help alot with porting. I caught someone's twitter last night that had Gingerbread running on their Vibrant.
If you can't do this stuff yourself, you have no right making the statement that the people that are doing it are slow. If you could do it, you wouldn't be here bashing the ones that can.

No, see, it makes perfect sense because see t mobile, verizon, sprint, AND att don't like having upgrades before one another, so now they are teaming up and releasing the upgrades at the same exact time.

They are working for free in their spare time. They owe you nothing.
No phone has a fully function version of Gingerbread. It will be a while before you can use it for everyday use.
And finally, GTFO.

And to the person you quoted, they aren't even ports. They are base ROMs made from the SDK. They have no Kernel source for drivers to work either.

Froyo source is now available

UPDATE: Cyanogenmod incoming. http://androidandme.com/2010/06/news/8-android-phones-will-get-froyo-early-thanks-to-cyanogenmod/
Dang, beat me to it. I was just going to link the adroidcentral article. Today is a great day for android!
all right! Devs get on it... oh wait, I forgot. Dev get on it.
I wish I knew more about all of this. We have a fully working kernel source for our 2.1 ROMs. Does that mean that porting 2.2 will be a snap, or am I missing something here?
Darch seems to be on it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6918210&postcount=1393
Darchstar said he would be able to get a working port for us by tomorrow xD I CAN'T WAIT!!!!!
This is news to me: http://twitter.com/cyanogen/statuses/16869433998
Apparently Cyanogen himself is officially working on the HeroC? Is this new?
I just lost all respect for myself......
"froyo source dropped?" "AAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!" *waves arms in the air then falls out of chair*
IRL.
FAIL.
I hope so. That would be great... Although we have great developers already here.

See this & it's reply.
Since Darchstar has a HeroC vendor tree already setup, this is the reason.
Wow. So I guess we get an official Cyanogenmod ROM in the near future. That November Evo upgrade eligibility date is suddenly hurting much less.
i'm feeling the same way!
I could still care less about the Evo. It's WAY too big IMHO. Who wants a brick in their pocket, apparently quite a few due, but whatever :-/
This definitely will make the wait for my next phone much easier. Now just need to decide which one I want next.

I wouldn't worry too much. I'm sure Samsung is tired of being shown up by a bunch of dev's on a forum who don't get paid for what they do. I'm not worried though because even if they go to a locked bootloader, give it a week or two and someone will find a way to unlock it or just get around it. I have full confidence in the dev's here...
This is a leak for the International version of the Galaxy S....this might not mean anything for us just yet...
At least it's a start. Given that the International versions got their Froyo in November (?), maybe we'll get ours in roughly 3 months after that due to conversions to CDMA and all the other stuff our unique Epics have.

With Moto already locking bootloaders and HTC fiddling with the idea, I think a lot of people in the scene are a bit concerned.
I can totally see the entire hobby marginalizing itself to Nexus devices some day. It's not like any major vendor is going to step up just to appeal to a tiny community of hackers any more than carriers are stepping up to make their networks strong enough for that 2% of customers sucking up bandwidth. :/
How can they legally lock the bootloaders? Wasn't it ruled that once we purchase these devices, they're OURS and we can hack/root/jailbreak them all we want?

You can hack it all you want and void your warranty, but they are not required to ALLOW you the ability to do it. They just can't do anything about it other than void your warranty.

No offense to the devs,but does it really make a huge deal if its gsm/cdma? I know the difference between the 2 networks.I've had the epic since nov. Or dec. ,and coming from the htc hero the devs in that forum kicked ass(no offense to the ones here).but I noticed they'd make roms for the htc hero(cdma) from gsm roms.I belive they even got gingerbread fully working for that phone,haven't checked.sorry if it sounds like I'm pissed or something,not pointing fingers.really appreciate the work y'all done for this phone,for real.

Something New to Flash?

When are we going to get something new to flash? I've been jones'n for like a month now. What is next on the horizon for EPIC users? I need a tease to at least wet my whistle. It's been too damn quiet on the new custom roms front!
You could always make something yourself if you want to flash something so badly. The devs here work hard with what little they have to work with and are, quite frankly, terribly underappreciated.

Oh and please don't forget to Donate to the developers who do this for free and work their ass off sweating over their releases.
Clearly he's following the everything's ok theme.
I can understand your anxiousness in wanting to have a new rom to experience but truthfully... we have what we need. Either acs or midNIGHT should be enought to keep you happy on your epic. If you want something to look forward to think about gingerbread and our epics finally being pushed to they're max. After gingerbread, if its light on bugs that is, the epic will finally reach its limits.

I think they are creating multiple builds in a day so they have to use future dates to name them. I look at it as a positive, they are making an effort to finish this one.
I've been back on EC05 rooted for a few days now. It's much more sluggish than Gingerbread, but everything works and NO REBOOTS!
