Uh, no matter what phone you get it will be outdated as early as 6 months. You'll never find any technology that will not be outdated within months.
[Vibrant General] eminembdg:
Gb isn't that great of an update. Have many of you played around with a nexus? My gf has one. I'm fine and happy with my vibrant running EDTs bi-winning. Its far far faster and cooler looking than her stock nexus with gb!

Do I want gb? Of course! I'm a tech and gadget junky. But honestly my phone is still faster, smoother, and has a MUCH better looking display than her nexus s.

Lets face it people. SAMSUNG IS A BUSINESS! They make products to make money. A few of us tweeting a dang hash tag #neveragain WILL NOT MAKE them give us gb.

I'm not downing anyone for their use of their amendment right of free speech. More power to yous! But I just feel it's a waste of time. But its your time, so do with it as you wish.

GB is probably 3% faster than Froyo, well EDT/TW/other dev'd ROM's.

Why do people want it?

It has that extra number.

2.2

or

2.3

oh and don't forget that green notification icons which we had on froyo too.

Someone should've ****ed with the people and made a rom with just build.prop changed to 2.3 and see how many people get happy.
[Vibrant General] s15274n:
As stated. Security patches and cm7 with gps hopefully.
[Vibrant General] xriderx66:
I make it sound super easy, but couldn't a developer TAKE OUT the security patches and modify to make them work for Froyo?
[Vibrant General] joshyy_rey:
This is true, samsung is out for themselves only out to make money. But to do that they need ppl to buy more phones, And happy customers buy phones. So it couldn't hurt to try I mean over in the Atrix forums we started a petition to unlock the bootloader. And moto listened and is doing it in coming updates, along with HTC. And I think samsung has sent out the update to carriers all other SGS have leaks and official releases. Its the carriers slowing it down the release taking out tethering etc. And loading up the bloatware.

[Vibrant General] s15274n:
I realize they are rumors (and I am not a fan of the source), but are we still saying you'd be willing to buy samsung again if their not even going to update one of their best selling devices to Gingerbread? When ICS is not too far away.....
[Vibrant General] dardani89:
I vote no because there's no reason to punish Samsung which has shown to upgrade its phones and fix their mistakes which have now produced the sgs II one of the best if not the best smartphones of 2011. The international version of the galaxy s already has had gingerbread for some time while some new phones are still coming with froyo. The thunderbolt which is Verizon's 4g flagship is still on froyo.
[Vibrant General] Robert8457:
In my heart Samsung is #1
[Vibrant General] Romanbb:
dardani89 makes a great point, which is what I've been trying to grunt into words for the past couple months. Samsung has been on their ****. Consistently. They've upgraded i9000 to Gingerbread. And on top of that, they are even upgrading between minor revisions of Android releases.

US carriers are the devil.

With that said it's still too early to tell.
[Vibrant General] iynfynity:
Then let's start a #neveragain against this selfish tmobile.
[Vibrant General] anthonys2r:
They wont care cause they're going to get bought out anyways (I HOPE NOT).. to them, its all gravy right now..
[Vibrant General] s15274n:
I HAVE BEEN HOUNDING T-MOBILE ON TWITTER TOO...

I Hate the idea the Vibrant line is being put on the back-burner because of an AT&T merger that should NEVER happen in the first place.

That's a soar topic for me already, this would amplify it.
[Vibrant General] JettyLife:
This seems like cutting off your nose to spite your face...

You did not argue that the SGS II wasn't the best phone lol just that you will not buy it because Samsung wont upgrade your old phone.

Think about that for a second.

If they upgrade all our vibrants to the newest most capable software, you still wouldn't buy the SGS II because your vibrant would be epic lol.

I don't think it will leak. And when its time for a new phone ill go Samsung because my vibe is awesome. Plain and simple.

Vibrant+MIUI
[Vibrant General] Shortbus-Driver:
Never again! I think htc is looking pretty sweet....3 people I work with have the htc rooted and are rocking so much more than the vibrant seems to be allowed too.

And they bought their phones all within the same month I bought my vibrant almost a year ago.

Granted htc has problems to,hardware wise like speakers,the screen isn't as pristine as the vib;they have the one thing we do not.......support!
[Vibrant General] duboi97:
Lets start this up again!

Its worth a shot. Either way its not like its gonna harm anyone if we do, do it again!
[Vibrant General] Jasonhunterx:
I would buy this phone ten times over but its really F'd up that there leaving us in the cold if they make it 4 the 4G shouldn't it be pretty easy to port :-/ ill be mad when I hear no ICS that's when ill join team never again :D
[Vibrant General] Abu-7abash:
I will always go for Samsung tbh, at least till they stop making quality gadgets with reasonable prices.

This all is clearly on t-mobile 's head, doesnt take a genius to figure that out so if i were any of you people on that carrier, I'll wave them the fingure saying #neveragain rather than Samsung whose support and policies for their other devices show up the best of what Android is all about.
[Vibrant General] joroboyvn:
What it has to do with Galaxy tab or SGS II? They are both great devices... and I'll buy both of them if I really need them! My Vibrant is runing great on 2.2.1 evrything works perfectly, even the GPS locks within 30sec. So I vote NO to never again...
[Vibrant General] s15274n:
I'm very surprised by many people, especially on a developers forum.

My next phone absolutely will not have a custom ui, it'll be unlockable, and it will be with a manufacturer that has a reputation for updates.

All that said, I realize and have said this may be on t-mobile's shoulders now...

The question is, do we do nothing? Be content with froyo (via mini kies) and not perfect cm7/miui?

Really?
[Vibrant General] funeralthirst:
i originally voted no. but over a month later i think i have changed my mind.
[Vibrant General] XPLANE9:
I wouldn't count on HTC either. The G2, the phone to which the Vibrant was extensively compared, is yet to receive a official Gingerbread update despite the Desire Z already receiving it in Europe. To make matters worse. T-Mobile has already discontinued the G2. Pretty obvious with who the real issue lies.
[Vibrant General] ndwgs:
I agree with Shredintyres and iynfiny....

With Shred, I agree that a Nexus type of phone is the way to go for me. Sprint is looking hella good for me. Why? One of the personnel I work alongside had the Vibrant, in which I made better, because of the great devs here. Fast forward, his contract with TMO expired, and with the looming merger, he asked me what he should get next, as his phone. I recommended the Nexus. Since he didnt want to be with TMO, he jumped ship to that Nexus 4G. ,Moving on, I recently tested his Nexus and, man it is good. I tested the bandwidth he has, against mine. Topped him off (thats the only thing he misses from TMO). I was curious, so I plugged in my sim to his Nexus 4G, and boy it was blazin at 26Mbps Down, 7Mbps Up. So the phone IS in tip top shape, but not Sprint's Network, in my area. My point is, as long as I'm with A NEXUS phone, capable of speeds of the so called, "4G" ( HSDPA+ ), then I am SET. No more of the carrier brands. TMo is going away anyway... And Nexus 3 is rumored to be leaked with Tegra2 dual cores. All I need now is Sprint's promise to up and ante thier network, making thier network worthy of calling the real 4G wimax.

As to Samsung? Well i'm not worried, since the Nexus 3 bid is closing in from the manufactures. Rumor has it that LG might be the clear winner of the next Google Nexus.

So start up the #Neveragain... Because I do plan on keeping this Vibrant, since I've invested time and money into getting it to it's supposed function, front cam, and games.

Let the hammer pound it in!

[Vibrant General] SuperJMN:
+1, well said.

Regarding to your question, no, we should complain. At least we should if we want Samsung to stop pulling too many phones to run and forget. Apple is giving way more support to its devices and both fanboys and plain users are satisfied with it.

Neglecting users is the best way to get their anger. Samsung makes notable hardware, that's why it is retaining many, still.

Looks like Sprint's getting ready to deploy LTE. What does everyone think?

http://www.bgr.com/2011/06/17/sprint-to-deploy-4g-lte-network-with-lightsquared/

http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-06-17/falcone-s-lightsquared-venture-reaches-a-15-year-network-deal-with-sprint.html
[EVO 4G General] SilverStone641:
Last i heard, LightSquared was told by the FCC they weren't allowed to broadcast because they were overpowering civilian and aviation GPS units. Has this issue been resolved? A 15 year deal ain't worth squat if you can't turn on the juice!! :p
[EVO 4G General] Genjinaro:
Yeah, thats what I'm worried about, I wish/hope its as easy as a change of a frequency channel.
[EVO 4G General] Hypeo:
I"m sure they will iron those wrinkles before flipping the switch.
[EVO 4G General] ZachPA:
It would be like Sprint to throw its weight behind a technology that is failed, different or inferior. WiMAX isn't exactly inferior to LTE, but the 2.5 GHz band it relies on most certainly is inferior to the 700 MHz band that Verizon's LTE uses.
[EVO 4G General] kevlar3d:
Ok, so lets say they deploy this 4g lte network... what happens to their 4g wimax network? From what little I know about wimax and lte chipsets, I dont think it would be possible for a firmware upgrade to turn wimax to lte. What happens to clear? One important thing to remember is that I didnt actually read the article so these questions may already be answered. haha.

Although, if my evo became a 3g only device, I would actually be ok with that if they drop the $10 a month surcharge ;)
[EVO 4G General] Hrshycro:
Words straight out of my mouth.
[EVO 4G General] Cloyd:
is there a resource that lists open frequency ranges?
[EVO 4G General] Ep3n3wp:
Could the new radio(SMR) thats in the evo 3d work on this frequency and be a dual wimax/lte combo?

[EVO 4G General] xHausx:
"The company can use LightSquared’s network to lessen the load on its own network as data demand has skyrocketed, an issue that has plagued other carriers. "

It sounds like they will be using them for backhaul, I don't see anything about Sprint using LTE. Right now backhaul is what Sprint is lacking so this will be a good thing for not just 4G but 3G speeds.
[EVO 4G General] kf2m:
here is a chart..

http://www.ntia.doc.gov/osmhome/allochrt.pdf
[EVO 4G General] Cloyd:
I assume any potential move to lte will address wimax's inferior latency?
[EVO 4G General] waterbound:
Sprint end users will NOT use LTE most likely ever. Sprint (the provider service) will utilize LTE strickly for back haul only. This is a very good thing for us the end user, basically means to us that we will have lots of bandwidth on tap. Wimax offers up to 12MB d/l transport speeds which most of us probably never see anyway. I personally get 7-8 around Baltimore/Annapolis areas of Maryland and this will hopefully allows us to have the bandwidth assuming more towers are deployed for our cell connectivity. This is a very good thing for us and the sooner the better!
[EVO 4G General] tech7:
sounds like lte will come later on firat is evdo rev o then rev a then rev b then do then do advance then lte
[EVO 4G General] monkeychef:
I have spoken to my sprint rep a lot about how Sprint works. He used to work for Samsung and distributed phones to carriers in the northeastern part of the united states. Because of this, he learned a lot about Sprint. One thing that he learned was that Sprint has the most bandwidth out of all the carriers, and it is one of the main reasons why theory data is truly unlimited.

Just throwing that out there.
[EVO 4G General] boliviano3:
It talks about Sprint using LTE in the third paragraph of the Bloomberg article.

“LightSquared and Sprint will jointly develop, deploy and operate LightSquared’s 4G LTE network,” according to the letter. “Sprint will become a significant customer of LightSquared’s 4G LTE network.”
[EVO 4G General] imwillzillla:
Yet more money wasted on Wimax and shoveled into another bad relationship (Clearwire) Stay comfy in number 3 because you're going to be seated here a while, Sprint. At the very least they woke up and realized LTE is the way to go.

However even after Clearwire's long gone. Those who already have Wimax 4g will still be supported until after their devices are long gone. The only ones who will be bit will be the ones that should have upgraded lone ago. Like the ones today who are still carrying around Cingular phones refusing to upgrade to AT&T :) So at least Sprint will keep their core customers happy to an extent.
[EVO 4G General] Award Tour:
Sprint desperate to jump into the LTE iPhone train next year?
[EVO 4G General] ZachPA:
What good is backhaul when the airwaves can't reach end users?

It's like having a download server capable of gigabit speed, along with an ISP who can deliver it to you. Except you're saddled with a 1991-vintage 10 Mbps ethernet card.

That's the problem I've been noticing with WiMAX. Sprint has one hell of a data network, but the airwaves used to deliver that network are congested and not well suited to the consumer's needs.
[EVO 4G General] firemedic1343:
I wonder how likely it is that an upcoming Galaxy 2 or Photon 4G will be LTE / Wimax on Sprint...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] tigris67:
Hi yall, First time poster.

I've yet to be able to get a PSX Emulator to work on the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1.

The 2 Emulators I've tried are FPSE and PSX4 Droid.

They launch, and I can place the bios in, but whenever I launch a game, they just sit there and it brings me back to the file browser.

Both these apps work flawlessly on my HTC Thunderbolt, anyone find out a solution?

I've had my Tab since the 8th of June.

Thanks in advance,

Michael.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] meeekael:
Hmm. This is concerning. Hopefully someone can fix this.

You should visit the FPSE website and ask for help from the people there. From what I've seen the Dev is pretty helpful.

A lot more helpful than Zod (psx4droid) anyway.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] schwiz:

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps] tigris67:

My memory wouldnt allow me to add any anything to it. So I tried unmounting and reformatting using the Galaxy Tab. Now I cant remount it and my iMac says it cant be read, its needs to be initialized. I tried formatting it again on my iMac and its still not recognizing it.

Any ideas?
[Galaxy Tab Accessories] alexgogan:
Say its fried, if 2 devices can't recognise it bring it back to store if its still in warranty.. if not well not unless there are precious memories in it would say bin it, not worth the trouble... if there are then there are plenty of tools on the web that may help you.

If any geniuses out there know what's causing this, or could help me determine what it is, I'd be eternally grateful.

I changed ro.product.model=SPH-D700 to Nexus S to get Netflix working. Netflix worked, but the email app would crash constantly.. I've since reverted my build.prop file and that fixed it. Is there anything anyone can think of that may be causing this?
[Epic 4G General] azyouthinkeyeiz:
A device authentication requirement inside of exchange. Any edits to that might permanently break exchange functionality. Because as I'm aware, it would be both on device and server.
[Epic 4G General] pissinguoff247:
Turns out either A. Netflix works without a build.prop mod, or B. just needed to be installed with it modded. Either way, I restored my old build.prop, netflix AND exchange work.

Huzzah.
[Epic 4G General] azyouthinkeyeiz:
Did you install netflix without authentication? The one without "device check"
[Epic 4G General] styles420:
Netflix works without the build.prop mod, the mod is only needed to be able to download the netflix app from the market (because it isn't officially available for the Epic, because the Epic doesn't officially have GB yet)

Edit: the post above mind brings up a calif point that I neglected - you need the modified .apk for it to work without the build.prop mod

Yes, true. I did find the modified netflix app (a new one was just released today). I no longer want to throw my phone out the window :)
