Yet another 2.2 post - Verizon Fascinate - Fascinate General

Yeah I know another Froyo 2.2 post. But I found this interesting that the Samsung product page for our phone has it listed with 2.2 coming standard. Maybe a clue that it will come within the next few months.
This is the Fascinate for Verizon network.
Hopeful for 2.2 yes, will it happen, probably not soon. I can wait.
http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones/SCH-I500RKAVZW

there are multiple posts about this same thing....
search for those...

Well that is a step in the right direction. The picture under the little article "Galaxy S with Android 2.2OS" still says 2.1 though, but eh at least they are acknowledging that 2.2 is coming very soon.

Figured i would get flamed for this. But all the rss feeds today are posting. sorry guys, did not read every single 2.2 post from start to finish to realize this was posted.
Anyways. Site is inconsistent. who knows when it will happen. I am not getting my hopes up for it. just thought i would share the already shared news again.
Cheers!

I'm not sure about other people on here, but I appreciate the info. Since this is the first time I have seen it. Also because it is not speculation, it is straight off of the samsung site.

wasn't Flaming you or bagging you, simply saying some other posts here and at www.Fascinateforums.com have more info from Samsung reps...

i don't see 2.2 on that page...it shows 2.1 under specs and near pic?

Looks like the over zealous web programmers have fixed the Fascinate for Verizon to show only 2.1 again. Someone either jumped the gun or is just trying to get peoples hopes up.
Hope they got a good laugh!

T-Mo OTA 2.1 Update

I searched through the forum, but found nothing relevant to my phone/carrier. Anyone heard anything about the 2.1 OTA update from T-Mobile?

There are actuly hundreds of web pages that discuss this so you didnt do to much searching.
The 2.1 Android update will hit between Now and the end of May. Ranging from the NEW mytouch/Fender LE, Cliq, Cliq XD... The old 32b Mytouch will most likely not get a full 2.1... The G1 sure as hell cant handle 2.1, but supposedly a stripped version of 2.0 is being made for it.
Google Tmobile 2.1 ota update.
Can't wait. Stripped version or not.
I agree, it doesn't really matter if it's stripped down or not. It just means there will be driver for the 2.0+ roms... imagine the improvement this will make for the current eris and legend roms.
We need to close this thread. There are DOZENS of threads regarding the 2.1 update. Do we need another?
Wow, looks like no one ever had anything positive to say when you ask a question. Seems arrogance gets the best of "devs" these days. I pride myself in finding the information myself when needed, but according to some I didn't search enough. Now look, it's almost august and no 2.1 for a lot of devices. You could have simply resisted the urge to share your arrogance and just not posted at all. Thanks for truly helping, you are a credit to the human race!

The update got changed from Android 2.1 to 2.2 and it is scheduled to be released sometime in august according to a leaked document from tmobile. Feel free to google it if you like.

Alright. That's enough!
I'm going to "jump in" and close this redundant thread.
@OP, NOBODY in this forum knows exactly when or even if the update will be released. Anyone that says otherwise is misleading you. Even if the person has reliable information through reliable sources it is still up to the carrier to release the update and I don't have to tell you how much can change at the last minute thus making those reliable sources unreliable.
If you want any information about future OTA updates contact your provider.
If they don't know then what makes you think that any of us does?

Android 2.1 to be release friday 4/16?

Does anyone here even care ANYMORE? It will prolly be a downgrade
compared to what we have now anyway with a bunch of flaws
just like our 2.1's in the beginning. Look what the devs have made
for us and APPRECIATE it. Start a thread after you have compiled
AOSP or find someone who has....I THINK MORE THAN A FEW OF
US WOULD REALLY LOVE TO SEE THAT POST........this isnt
twitter, and most of here arent morons. So if YOU know it, you
can probably bet WE do too...FYI
Be warned.
People here do not like these rumors showing up on this forum.
They will have it removed.
I know. Happened to me.
Yet when the date was March 26th, no one had them removed.
This forum needs one of those setups where when you starting creating a thread the forum searches for keywords and gives you options of threads that have already been created before creating the thread. Ive seen it done before. They should implement something like that since no one likes to or knows how to use the search feature.
Can we please stop posting on speculated dates and wait until this *actually * comes to fruition?
Waste of time to even post on this.
you spin me right round baby right round, like a record baby right round right round.....
I was bored so I e-mailed them and told them people may believe it more if they used a picture of a "Sprint HTC Hero"

who cares!
we got 2.1, the only good that can come of this is the brillant dev's here taking the crap sprint dishes out and making something truly awesome. Which is really hard to imagine since DC's current rom is pretty dam on the money, at least for me anyway.
I propose that the next person to post that link be banned.
Ya I would only care from one of these if it was an OFFICAL date from sprint. and then I would just blow it off anyway and continue using my Rom like nothing happened

I think the post is accurate, it does say HTC Hero roll out April 16th FOR Europe though “Nordic/Greek/RUS/UKR/SA” regions. They say it will trickle down to Sprint which will most likely be April 30th which sounds pretty close.
I could've sworn this was a discussion forum about the development of the CDMA Hero. Weird.
I must be lost because these people don't want to know any of the news (which does often include rumors).

Well it wouldn't have taken much time (or let alone effort) to figure out the answer to your question. There would be no need to read through "100 pages" if you'd just learn to use the forum's built-in search function.
But this is getting off-topic, so let's get back on track. Nobody knows when (official) Froyo is coming to the Wildfire, but you'll know it very shortly after the release.

Thing about forums is that they have tools so simple questions like yours can be answered without much effort by the user. Even if you had glanced at this page you would have seen similar threads to your own. If you had used half an ounce of brainpower you would have surmised that T-Mobile can't release their own update until HTC release an unbranded one first. If you had refined your search properly there wouldn't be hundreds of pages to sift through.
You think you're superior to people who use forums but you come here and expect them to help you with a question which has an obvious answer. So why did you come here if you're so cool?

Any new info on the official 2.2???

I have been following samsung mobile on twitter and haven't heard anyone really talk about the 2.2 rom after that rumor of it being released dec 26 2010. Anyone heard anything else?

Forum mod has asked people specifically to stop posting these threads. When there is any real indication of Froyo coming, it will be posted.
I've read many blogs, twitter feeds, and comments about this. All I've heard is that even though it's still not ready, it's still being tested. It seems as though they're trying to iron out all of the kinks so that every phone gets the update smoothly and that EVERYTHING works. That goes for all Galaxy S phones, and not just the Epic 4G.
However, in my opinion, it seems as though they're taking their damn sweet time. Can't figure out if Samsung has incompetent programmers, management, or both. However, on the bright side, atleast Samsung is letting us know what's up and not COMPLETELY leaving us in the dark. Although, they're not setting a deadline other than "when it's done" nonsense.
In terms of whether or not it's the carrier's problem really isn't correct. I would assume the carriers don't care as long as the phone can comply with certain guidelines (AKA no hot spotting unless you pay for it), then it's good to go.
Remember, even though most of us are salivating for a new upgrade, I'd say most people have no idea that a new one is in the making. If you say all of your friends know about the upcoming upgrade, you have some mighty geeky friends!
My guess is that it should roll out in the next couple of weeks. Hell, they've had since August to work on the damn upgrade. My guess is that Samsung has a crappy programming staff, ****ty management, and limited budget for upgrading phones.
That's my take on the big mess. Here's hoping it comes soon and works as they promised.

Wow, another one of these posts. Reported.
Again I will say it. Why isnt there a dedicated sticky that deals with ALL froyo speculation? All of these threads could be merged with it and all speculation could happen inside of it. Where are the mods and what are they doing? I know its not an easy job to do, but it seems like no one is in charge of this forum at all. No sticky linking to the wiki or a basic guide so that noobs can set up their phone easier. No sticky dealing with froyo speculation. Why not just add another moderator if you need the help?

I am thinking you cannot make people stop commenting about something if that is what they want to talk about. Perhaps a sticky at the top of this section of the forum with the official status of froyo 2.2 has or has not been released yet so PLEASE don't ask anymore. We will change the topic of this post the first thing when it is released to let you know it is available.
I am not telling anyone what to do, I am simply trying to offer ideas towards a solution to this problem.
Exactly. Have a sticky where people CAN discuss Froyo speculation, and then any threads that are STILL posted to general can just get merged with that sticky thread or deleted.
Instead of childish responses, why arent these threads just closed. Is there no type of moderation here?

Dear Mods, I will not insult you anymore about Froyo. I'm soo over it and flash to Custom Roms weeks ago. So you don't have to say a word about these threads being started. Just Close them and ask questions later or hell don't ask or explain why you closed them. Just Do IT!

EA04 would mean it was completed 2 days ago. So 3-6 more months of testing and 30-40 more versions and we should have a final release.

There should be another mod in ADDITION to him. I think that is the point.
Sprint will only release Froyo when there are no new xda "when is froyo coming out?" posts for an entire day. Unfortunately, at this rate it may never be released.

Just received u{pdate notice !

Just logged into motoblur ro mess around and I was alerted of update. Picked up my phone and did update and it said GB 4.57 available.
Im on 2.3.4 now so it bombed. Flashed back to 1.83 to try it.
Hopefully not crying wolf !!!

Holy ****. The assholes are out today. I did look through the threads real quick and didn't see anything.
I did see the thread from DarkY from like the 26th. This is the first time I received the update after checking multiple times since I flashed the 2.3.4.
And it was through a different Motoblur account then I originally signed in with when I was on 1.83 and earlier. So I got my hopes up.
It's not like this is my first visit here. Totally not surprised by CaelanT responses. After I did the search, noticed as always he's pissing in everyone else's face who posted about the update. Takes a special person to bounce around multiple threads just to be an asshole. Impressive.
EDIT : xfinrod and Blue Puma. Assholes is not directed at you in this thread. It's an epidemic after I searched about the update.
maybe you should have waited until you flashed back and actually tried to update it successfully before you posted this. then people wouldn't be on your back for jumping the gun and posting.

I am special maybe because I actually read all the threads posted in the Atrix forums, and some people evidently don't read any! If calling it like it is is being an a**hole, then I am guilty as charged, as are most of the people who post their dislikes about having to read the same threads over and over again because people like you are too lazy to actually spend any time on searching. Sure, we all make posts/threads which have been posted before, but come on there........this one had already been posted so many times in the last few days, I can't count them all on both hands, and I have all my fingers.

Nobody knows. Moto is being tight lipped on dates as usual. There has been word in the last week on the Moto forums that the soak test invites will be going out soon, but again, soon could be in 2 months for all we know.
Aren't we on 1.83 awaiting 2.3.3 or 2.3.4?
And isn't July, when the update is supposed to come?
Why is there a post about 1.57?
Isn't there a "Please use search." message, or two, generated once you join? Just wondering...
It's like bait to the lions. haha

Yeah, having a life is a *****. My wife and family are a little more important to me.
I would have thought Boston would have more to offer someone than sit in their underwear and read every thread in every Atrix forum. Sad really.
I did read through some of your posts, though. You did provide useful information in about 50 % of the posts I read. Stopped after about four pages, though. Life and all.
But it was a good enough sampling for me to determine that you call it like it is.

I have a family.............wife and 7 children, (3 still at home), so the Atrix forums are my getaway some of the time. Speaking of family time, we are about to leave for super duper fireworks!
Even if the noobiest noob asks a stupid question and I know it has been answered a hundred times here, I still answer the question (if I know the answer) but also point to where I found it. Try to be more friendly ppl. There are assholes here. Lets try to keep it to a minimum. You don't need to be a **** to make your point. And you don't need to make smart remarks. It don't help. It just makes you sound more like a ****. This is supposed to be a community. That's the way I was brought up anyway.

Outstanding. Congratulations. I have four. Two still at home.
Like I said, a lot of your posts were helpful, informative. The rest, well, were not. I just don't get it. It just looks like you go out of your way to call people idiots. Then there are band wagons, that jump into the mix. So a majority of the threads turn to crap.
I spent a good three to four months after joining and didn't post anything just to avoid the bull****.
Apparently if you post here, and it may be a stupid or noob question, you won't get an straight answer. You'll get a smart ass remark, then it's like blood in the water.
Heaven forbid if you don't search before you post. For god's sake, don't post in the wrong forum. Every swinging **** comes after you with a baseball bat with a nail through it.
This is a premier site. Other sites reference this site. I just don't get all the bull****.
I saw it on Blackberry sites also. But I guess I should just STFU, cuz it ain't gonna change.
Have a great night. Seriously, I mean it.
Maybe u can save it
