Gotta wait for 2.3 Gingerbread or wait for Steve to port the Camera app over to 2.2

Depends which application you are using, oovoo works with front camera, I have spoken to both fring and tango devs and they say they are actively working on a fix for the streak. Unfortunately the tango app dev said he can't get his streak to froyo yet so he's waiting on the upgrade : smirk:

Interest new info about vibrant 4g

just want to let you guys know my cousin and i went in to a t mobile store to speak to a rep about the vibrant 4g. we wanted to know if it would be worth exchanging our old vibrant for the new ones. he stated that there is not a lot of hard ward difference was just the FFC and that's it. the software change only being froyo. he said if it were him he wouldn't switch. He also said the official update for froyo was actually released through kies about 10 days ago. i wasn't aware of this just though i would share.

The differences b/w the two include:
4G radio in SGS 4G
16GB internal SD card on the Vibrant
FFC on SGS 4G
2.2.1 on SGS 4G from the get go
SGS 4G comes with Inception movie as a multimedia feature on included 16GB external SD card.
Also nfc, right?

First android phone?

I apolgize if there is another topic like this on this forum.
Anyways, I was just wondering what your first android phone was! And if it wasn't the epic, why did you switch to the epic? I got curious after flashing froyo on my old moment and an epic 4g theme *Nostalgia* lulz

This Epic is the first Android phone for me. Previously a Blackberry guy and COULDN'T BE HAPPIER.
First for me as well. Honestly, I miss my palm centro. It did all I could dream of. And even (almost) ran full-fledged linux

Samsung moment. (Those of us who came from this probably plan on keeping the epic awhile)

I got my first taste of android on the touch pro 2. One of the first windows mobile phones to have android ported to it.

the mighty moment was my first android phone too.. many MANY hours on SDX...
Went for Blackberry Storm to Epic. Blown away by the Epic. The only plus to the BB was the native Exchange email on the Blackberry works a lot better than the Android. Although in Froyo they did fix the embeded photos, I hate how it forwards everything as an attachment. Touchdown has fixed that issue for me, but it's a paid program.
Moment here also.

HTC Hero was my first, I upgraded to the Epic 4G instead of the Evo cause of hummingbird.
The Epic is my first Android after almost every WinMo keyboard device. Pretty nice...Pretty, pretty, pretty nice.

Also the G1 for me. But left for a minute to the Storm and a Blackberry Curve. Then came back to Android with the Hero, and then the Epic. Going to the Epic Touch shortly.

Lol me too before the moment I was on at&t before and I had the blackjack 1 then blackjack 2 then the jack. All samsung.

Moment here too; I used a ROM from Android Mobile Support and dearmas. It ran great I'd still be using it, but my wife bought me the epic for xmas I will certainly be using it for a while.
The Epic is my first as well. Tried some Android out on the TP2 after it was ported just like Austin.

Sky Go UK

the app is launching on a few htc and samsung devices at the end of feb.
one of these is the galaxy s. since the specs of the galaxy s are similar to the streak, we should be able to install the apk!
Sent from my Dell Streak using xda premium
With the amount of time Sky have spent getting this software on Android, I think its fair to assume that it will be pretty seriously locked down and only available to unrooted stock versions of the devices listed unfortunately.
Would be cool if we can though!
Doesnt seem to work. Has anyone got it working on dell streak and if so how?
+1
I only have sky news using the app from this thread.
