Maybe going back and reading sextapes posts about FF02 on Saturday or Sunday would be helpful, the build WAS MARKED FINAL. Samsung put the downloader together and its already gone out to the stores and its LOADED WITH FF02. FE26 was not ever leaked for a reason people.

BTW I've been full on ff02 since agats kernel came out, fresh installs every single update and 0.00000 issues with ff02. 4G runs all day no reboots, the roaming signal, get used to it for a while with Sprint as they light up LTE and the "Network Vision" changes, youre going to be bounced off Verizon, AT&T, US CELLULAR. Thats cause again its Sprint and obviously planning isn't a priority with them so rather than get new towers up amd ready first, they're actually putting towers up at same time as cutting the juice to the old towers. Austin, Dallas, Houston, and San Antonio are all roaming brothels right now and all going LTE by end of July

Are you really on FF02? Blu Kuban with FF02 modem and kernel is not the same as running stock FF02.

Maybe we need a beer tender in this thread. So much mud slinging.

It'll get here when it gets here.

Sure we're all anxious, excited, disappointed, etc.. but daaaang.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] yellowman82:
I agree I dont know why some people can't be patient enough I mean our device are good and what the devs are doing with these leaks are amazing even tho im on blazer GB cuz I prefer a real stable smooth ROM with no bugs but once source drops ill begin my journey of flashing roms again but until then I think you guys should be patient and chill and enjoy the ics roms that are out or go back to GB till ota and source drops
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jamesey:
0 issues because you don't use exchange. Many have confirmed as well. Also other bugs where apps don't properly exit and phone heats up, but you probably don't use those apps either. Fwiw, fd26 had far less bugs, but that was 4.0.3.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Esoteric68:
I think you have a point, beer tender definitely needed. On that note I think I'll have a glass of wine.

I love Friday evening, it is my absolute favorite time of the week. Happy Friday indeed!

---------- Post added at 08:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:16 PM ----------

I don't use exchange so I've held comment on that but I have seen other people who do use it report they have no problems. Doesn't mean it isn't an issue just means hardware differences are likely playing a part.

The heating issue I've experienced at times when first flashing a new leak but it never lingers and usually goes away after a reboot. Again, doesn't mean it isn't a real issue for other people just that my experience with it is as posted.

There are a lot of bugs associated with apps that I truly believe are probably related more to compatibility between those apps and ICS rather than an actual ICS issue. Doesn't mean I'm right, it's just my feeling from a lot of observation since these leaks began.

Most importantly, as I mentioned earlier and a few times before, these leaks are not a final product and therefore prone to being buggy. Reporting these issues is very important and hopefully someone is paying attention and cleaning them up before any final product is released, although expecting a completely bug-free OTA is unrealistic but we can at least hope for a minimal bug infested OTA. lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] satur9ine:
But when?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kc_exactly:
A month. Someone a few days ago posted the dates of the final rom to the date of the OTA. All of them were like 30-45 days apart. Hopefully since the build process took four months it will get pushed quicker. The other hope is with all this S3 excitement they don't forget to get us the source sooner too.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jeremiah.rs:
If this is the OTA release, I'm not going to use it and I'm sticking to cm9, hopefully the battery life can be improved with the kernel source.

I don't understand how they plan on releasing firmware without working exchange on a phone like this
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cob11341:
I am not sure, but I think Sprint has a new build on the low that is being tested as we speak, I mean no bugs can be left as is! :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TrayLunch:
I'm in Houston and I never roam. What are you talking about?

EDIT: I mean for real, I work at an airport. I've spent large amounts of time underground And always had at least one bar.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kc_exactly:
I am in KC. The same place as the Sprint world headquarters. I roam all the time and dropped calls at home until i got an airave.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TrayLunch:
That's fine and all, but to say Houston is a "roaming brothel" is utter nonsense. I travel all around the city with my band and never roam.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kc_exactly:
I think what he meant by a "roaming brothel" was something else. You know you got to pay to play.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] t4d73:
So can I use cwm from the market to flash other roms or is it best to use Odin? Also can downloaded zips even be flashed through Odin or is that just for .exe files? Sorry for all the questions but had to ask lol.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tmeader:
You miss the point. I don't care if I'm roaming or not, that's fine. What I want is for the phone to respect the setting telling it not to warn me every single time it goes into roaming. This WAS working perfectly in all the late 4.0.3 based kernels. Likewise, all the 4.0.4 builds after the very first one had this bug licked. That they let it go back into the final is retarded.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TrayLunch:
You will have a PM shortly.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] icarr4077:
The only time I get roaming warning is when I have an mhl HDMI adapter plugged in. Its odd, anyone else experienced this?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] master acehole:
That is very odd is your charging port bent? Mine triggers alarm app if I push it up? Maybe somehow integrated? Perhaps a coincidence

Helping people makes me feel good. I remember a time not so long ago when all I had was a phone and qbkings videos. That was like February, LOL!

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TrayLunch:
Check your PM. Way off topic info there.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TrayLunch:
I don't think so. He started by saying we should get used to the roaming, then said that Sprint wasn't planning and was cutting juice to old towers while erecting new ones. Yada, yada, yada, etc. That tells me that he thinks Houston, as well as the other places he mentioned, are a haven for roaming. That's why I asked what he was talking about.

Look, I'm not trying to start another big mess, I just want him to clarify himself and not someone else to do it for him.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kc_exactly:
Sorry, i have been drinking. So the old "tower" couldn't perform so out will get no more juice. The new tower its getting "erected" and will be much younger and stronger.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TrayLunch:

Have been a long time since that was posted over there. I was wondering about it so I download to inspect it and sadly is Gingerbread 2.3.4 R1 :(
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TrayLunch:
You can tell because it's in between 2 GB builds. They're sequential.

EDIT: I almost got excited until I realized what you guys were referring to. Half a chub even, LOL!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brooksyx:
There are currently 3 source files for our phone on Samsung source website. When there are 4 or more we should have our ICS source :p
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] thirdcoastraised:
It is when you have stock FF02 kernel and modem. So YES Im running FF02 and not the only person running it and having 0 issues. Only very minor issue is the FF02 modem is way slow compared to the kernel which runs Blu Kuban like a race horse!

You guys are aware that not all Androids have exchange right? And remember what we have right now is an unofficial version issues you see right now have likely been worked out, and if not, go back to GB no one is forced to update its offered not required

I'm at the Hyatt downtown and have been since yesterday, 7 people 7 Sprint phones only 2 E4GT, all in amd out of roam since we got here. Called Sprint today "its due to Network Vision and LTE upgrade." Logged onto Sprints Network Vision site amdblo and behold a **** ton of folks on numerous devices ROAMING! Been that way in Austin for a month since LTE started going live, its a temporary issue with Sprint not the phone or ICS, San Antonio had 8 full days in May with no 3g or 4g service...they went LTE live 2 weeks later, haven't had issues since. Conroe had numerous reports of LOS last month guess what? LTE is already live there. And its right up the road.

Is This going to be wifi OTA or Kies?

... Or the simple downloader at sprint?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TrayLunch:
When peoples phones tell them that there's an update, most assume it's a requirement because they've been conditioned by windows update. Don't give the average user so much credit. I start talking GB and ICS and my less tech savvy friends want food.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] thirdcoastraised:
I would simply say we didn't get fe26 because no one leaked it. We didn't get fb11, fd01, fe25 or the more than 40 other builds that never made it out of development ...why? Because no one put them out...theres your reason...

Right, I'm pretty close to Conroe (well as close as you can be and still be in the Houston area) I was downtown earlier this week and in and out of the Galleria area, as has my wife. Neither of us are having these problems, but then again we're on stock rooted EL29. I live across the street from IAH. I have no problems what so ever.

I am well aware of that haha, its weird though, I'd used the earlier builds without issue, its just the most recent ones that don't seem to work well with exchange. In any case, I have been using UnNamed Rom, but I wanted to try CM9 out and it works, that's all I wanted to say haha.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TrayLunch:
I know they're painful, and you may have already specified, but did you do a full restore Odin or a no data?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] thirdcoastraised:
Have you seen anyone from XDA receive any credit? Nope, nor will you most likely...they didn't get put out because no one wanted to be the one to do it, I can tell you this FF02...enjoy it, just be glad we have the capability of choosing modems cause this modem can't keep up with the system. So now, I'm gonna finish my Crown and water, head back to my room, watch some TV. Tomorrow I'm headed home, start vacation with family and then off to NY on the 18th to prep for Unpacked on the 20th. But this week, this week I'm gonna chill, enjoy my family, and most likely really early on watch as these ROMs really get tweaked out. Then on June 21, I'll fly back home, open up 4 gs3s and laugh at all the drama of the past couple of weeks because no one cpuld figure out why they would do it this way or that way. Fact is they CAN thats why, at the end of the day, Samsung and Sprint already got what they wanted from you the day you bought your phone...your money! We got lucky and got to be a part of the ICS testing some more hands on than others, but either way, you gave them all they wanted so they just decided to actually do right and give you/us quality, even though most of us will have gs3 by years end. Enjoy uour weekend folks and quit getting all worked up and mad over an update that you don't control, and honestly wont give 2 ****s about an hour after its out.

If they're in this thread clearly they arent the average user, sad that you basically just said that we've become so stupid that we actually believe our phones can MAKE US do anything. Even my 8 year old daughter knew that she didn't HAVE to update to EL29, in fact she stayed on EL26 right up until we rooted her and put her on Blu Kuban, and she knows she doesn't HAVE to take OTA OR go into Sprint to update, there's an ignore option for a reason to be used if you so choose.

+ a million you folks are too worked out about an update you cant control I know this is a leak topic forum but everytime I come on here to check whats going on I see people complaining about exchange and bugs on ff02 and that it cant be final guys give it up if its final its final thats it it doesnt mean its going to be push out with the bugs that you guys speak of. I would like to know what most of you guys would have been doing if there was never any leaks out to begin with? Im pretty sure not on this forum topic complaining about something you have no control of I bet that.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jpkelly05:
I took Samsung's RDF/Leak's with a grain of salt. Most likely a RDF/Leak is from one single or a group of Developer's list of project bug fixes. And most likely their are multiple groups working on different issues. AND most likely they are to only work on certain code (such as one group may have worked on 4G while another worked on Display smoothness). If one group or single Developer did not have any reason to leak and that Developer's part was part of say - Exchange, then we would never see a RDF/Leak with their fixes. So maybe just maybe the reason why we didn't see 40+ RDF/Leak's is because not everyone is a XDA member (or cares--> as they don't own the E4GT or are just Developing for their work because their boss told them to do this project or go home) or they don't feel like risking their job. Who knows their reason, but I could think of many more. Furthermore, Final - could mean the groups final build on their part of the project code. And once all the groups final project codes are submitted- the Lead Project Manager would then have his special team build the best of the best of the very best possible Codes for OTA. Behold, 5 versions we don't actually have. Remember when EL29 was leaked but when the OTA came out it was a little different than what was leaked to us.

Ok. So let the trolling begin. If I said something wrong I apologize in advanced. I do not work for either of these companies (Sprint/Samsung) and I don't know anyone. So just remember to be patient. I am basing my GUESSING on other software developing entities I have known in the past, every company has their own process but they can be very similar. typing while a kittens butt in your face is hard. sorry for the book.

I've weighed through 7,683 posts on this thread, appreciating the insights, information and even the disagreements. 3rdCoast, by virtue of your position, (i.e. insider status) I/we, like it or not, put great credence in what you say, but -- and put this under the heading "unintended consequences" -- sometimes you drop some provocative (i.e., "there's a reason FE26, et al, wasn't leaked") or definitive (source will be out on June 6th) statements/opinions that can be taken as gospel. It will soon be moot, but I'd like to ask you to take better care with the information you convey and how it might be interpreted. It just might avoid the obvious. Thanks.

Unrelated to this, I finally got loopy seeing you pimp for Blu Kuban and flashed it myself. Very impressive so far. I'm waiting another day before I opine, but that'll be on Ru's thread.

No, seriously, well said and unfortunately, he's now what I'd refer to as cannon fodder. Unfortunately.

Just like anything else; insider info doesn't always pan out and it makes it easy to point the finger.

Not that he can't defend himself by any means, but sometimes its hard to derail a train wreck.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TrayLunch:
No need to apologize for anything. The input is appreciated here. The only real issue I have is with this portion. Though I have no issue with the last idea, you didn't take into account that update packages have already been sent out to the retail stores with FF02 built into it. Considering the leak we received was marked "Final Candidate," and not just "Final," leads me to believe that it was a complete build. I could be wrong, but as the old Magic 8 Ball would say, and I'm paraphasing, "All Signs Point To [Final]"

We can only hope that they added some final tweak in there after our build, if not, so be it. I'll still take the OTA and take my chances.

Is the task manager bug fixed in this build? (When having more than 3 background apps running and a black bar shows up at the bottom. When having less than or equal to 3 a blank bar doesn't show up.)

But the thing is the bugs that we have now are sooo miniscule that honestly shouldn't take little to no time at all. I mean they coded everything and have all the major bugs squashed, so why not squish the small few bugs remaining. Either they stopped caring or they created a new build out of the FF02 that has the new bugs fixed. It's the only reasonable explanation I can think of currently at the time :/
