official rollouts starting next week. I work for t-mobile so don't take my word for it
:hmmm: I'm not saying your wrong, but why would they put out JI6 today, if they were going to release froyo in a week?
I'll believe it when i see it.

Just to comment on your question, the JI6 update could very well be needed for a clear and stable path to a froyo upgrade.

This is just another troll. The JI6 update will be rolled to everyone throughout October. There is no way Froyo is coming until everyone gets JI6, so at least not until November, chances are probably even later.
I second the ban. As people get banned for Froyo trolling, we will see less and less. (Hopefully.)
Thanks OP.

TBH, this actually would make sense. Hopefully J16 is just a gateway and we'll see Froyo by months end or Even Nov. Wasn't Nov the "speculated" date from the UK site?
Frodo the hobbit update is being rolled out this week.

If you don't believe him, good for you... but you don't need to get offensive and insult people, respect if you want people to respect YOU.
But he said don't take his word for it. I hope he is just being sarcastic, otherwise, it is pretty much just another trolling attempt.
Maybe its true maybe its not but the first guy on the forum that said he got an update got called a liar and all sorts of things until people noticed it was true I didn't see one apology to him either in my opinion I hope it is true and if it is thanks for the info and if its not maybe he just got bad info himself NO BIG DEAL!

I agree with you man
All this guy/girl do is just come to XDA and talk crap to everyone, everywhere I go he/she is talking like if they were the ***.
Seriously get a life or stop insulting people.
I love logging in and seeing threads flamed left and right...hey kids go home until you learn to play nice with everyone....
Yea sent from this mobile thinggy =p
IF the OP, is legit, he's probably just got his updates confused. Maybe he heard he heard about the update that's bring sent and assumed froyo.
Otherwise he's like the guy who posted he knew there was no gps update coming until nov, lol.
I actually hopethis is true...but a lass I have yet to recieve the gps fix update yet.

Where is the OP now? I am so tired of these people that think they are part of the "in the know" crowd making these claims, being wrong, and then not even bothering to apologize.
I hope it teaches all the noobs a lesson: Don't believe anything until you see it. The world is full of DAs like this that want to be the first to announce something and be part of the cool crowd.
Vdub804 - you just created a not-to flattering reputation for yourself, so you better get a new screen name at XDA.

Get real. I work for Samsung and we are rolling out Ginger in 4 days.
When is this so called 2.2.1 update coming ota? I've read online that there is a leaked version for those rooted but I'm not and I want my ota update damn it! I asked a rep this weekend and he said "in the next two months" but he also said the same thing when i asked when lte was coming out...oh those silly Verizon workers
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
the reps in store probably do not know when the update is due out.
Yeah... I like asking them questions just to see what how they will answer ya know? But does anyone have any info on the release date?
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
There are no dates yet, officially or unofficially. Just stay tuned.
Motorola won't even admit the leak is their work. Get on motorola owners forum you will see the lack of communication on motorolas part. They also refuse to provide any information about possible update timelines... They operate their business like they do their boot loaders...

Does anyone know what the update is going to (in theory) fix? Any sort of changelog?

the last official communication from Motorola is here:
_https://supportforums.motorola.com/thread/38876_
While the leak runs like a finished product, there's no guarantee that it's ever coming OTA anyways. It does fix most of what was posted in the link above.
Also, I believe that VZW rep was right about LTE
LTE was launched yesterday(Dec. 5)! As far as a 2.2.1 OTA... only time will tell.

Wow
Wonder who's gonna get in trouble for hacking verizon servers.
For that is the only feasible way that I could ever possibly believe on how someone got their hands on the source code.

This is how it should be done! Samsung and the carriers SHOULD have a developer update. That way developers can sign up for the beta releases so they can go in and help fix problem areas. That way, they'll have updates for everyone else MUCH, MUCH faster.
Instead, they're either firing or hiring a new head Android programmer at Samsung:

i just hope this gets in the hands of our boys and trhey can actually do something with it
This is good news for us.
Not sure what it really means, if anything for us. Just an interesting find, if it's even true. If our boys could get anything from it that would be awesome. I am interested to see what VZW has done with the build, and if any of the DK28 bugs could be fixed with some code form this build. Still, I don't think we will see it. More than anything, if Verizon gets an update out the heat will really be on Sprint to get something out. I am just starting to get concerned that our work is being further delayed by this February 7th announcement that Sprint is prepping.

I read the article and it says nothing about source code... Just a leaked build like our DK28. They probably got it from a Samsung guy sympathetic to their cause.

That's also why it doesn't mean quite so much for us, unless they can utilize and code in the build for bug fixes in our own. I just think that both Sprint and Verizon will be under increased pressure to get things out.
Oh man. I wonder if the TV Out drivers are in there.
Probably just some internal leak from an employee fed up with the wait...possibly.

Ok so another reliable vzw source tweeted today that they soft released bb os 6.0 and "sammy up next". Looks like even though vzw is mum on the update communication, they will likely beat sprint to the punch.

Good morning all! Apparently we soft launched os6 update for bb. Hope u all are enjoying it. Sammy up next

Read several threads where people spoke with Sprint reps. They said there was an issue with EC05 so they pushed it back till the 24th. If this means anything from Sprint those on the East Coast wait till the 25th and if you get a update before please let everyone know.
It would be nice if Sprint has some idea what it means to communicate with their customers and post this officially. God forbid they keep us in the loop.
Company communication SUCKS in general these days, which is REALLY sad considering how many mediums we have to communicate with!
This is me speculating...but I don't think its been pushed back.
The update started on the 21st to be delivered through to the 24th. I would think that the reps are telling people the 24th b/c there's nothing they can do but have us wait and they don't want people calling repeatedly.

I can see your point of view. However has anyone received an stock EC05 update as of yet? Everyone reporting nothing. No one has publish a update.zip file at all.
Dude, you do realize the people that go to XDA are in the minority. Most people could care less when and if their phone is updated. They don't look at the next update as a cure to all their ills.
I would say 9 out of ten Epic owners have no idea what XDA even is.

seriously?!?!?! aww crap balls
I'm sure we have a ton of lurkers who'd never post.
Either way - We have two reports on various forums of someone receiving the update. There is also one tweet from someone about 16 hours ago. I imagine they start out slow and increase the size of the batches as they update.
The next 12 hours will be very telling I think.
i want to mail them a box of my sh%t! this really pisses me off
god more lies...LIES!...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kyE4CLM0QIA
Well if a Sprint rep said it, it must be true.
Haha
Never mind
Why do people keep posting about the Samsung open source site. That file is totally useless...

If you got an a message to update then post the update.zip. For gods sake man, everyone has waited and I haven't seen anyone post a file or a message about getting a real update. All I seen was the leak, and it is not what people want. If we got the stock we could root it and post it out there for others. Thats whats this forum is all about helping others. Positive and helpful comments only. If Sprint wanted everyone to have it there would be tons of posts about getting EC05. So far nothing and NO update file. Look in /cache and the root of your sdcard. I am sure Sprint has a script at the end that deletes the file. If you don't have root explorer write me back and I can seen you the apk. We really need to know if this is the real deal though!
I called Samsung today at (800) 726-7864. According to Samsung customer service representative they are working on Gingerbread update for T-mobile Vibrant T959. I asked her if this is what she thinks or is this info 100% confirmed and she said it is confirmed and there will be an update but currently there is no ETA on it.
Does this mean there is still hope for the update?
Did you ask her about the battery life?

How did you know??? She asked me why i want Gingerbread and I said because of battery life.
My brothers girlfriends uncles fairy godmother works at the coffee shop across the street from the post office down the road from liquor store up the alley from Tmobile and she heard Gingerbread tastes yummy.

so i just for hoots and hollers i called the number that
gun posted
and asked them if there was a gingerbread update being tested
for the tmobile vibrant t959
and was told yes there is an update being tested but there is no
eta when it will be released
so i again asked is it a gingerbread update and was told
again there is an update being tested
i was like thats only part of what i asked
i know theres an update being tested and you have confirmed it
but i would like to know is it a gingerbread update
and was told we cannot confirm wether its a gingerbread or newer
os update ....but yes an update is being tested but no eta
on a release date ....
so all i got out of it was a 50/50 chance of it being a GB update
.......
now before yall start whinning about we need pics or more
evidence about it ..heres a solution for ya
try calling the number gun posted and ask about it yourselfs
and wow it took a whole 5 minutes out of my busy day to call and ask them
Thanks Gun for the info
i hope its true,thank you!
Are you guys serious? People on the other end of these numbers dont usually know what they are talking about these things.
They are like gingerbread update sure why not just let me eat my donuts.
