As usual when you are challenged to prove your statements all you do is attack. You think attacking proves you position but it does not. No proof that Samsung made a public statement as the poster said and not proof that froyo was released to the carriers 6 to 8 weeks ago. Here is what the poster who started this debate said:

"Samsung finished with froyo about a month and a half to two months ago and publicly announced that they gave the build to carriers..."

This is what Mattstar responded:

"If this nonsense were true why doesnt the Vibrant,Captivate or Fascinate have Froyo either....

And then you say this:

"Ya except sgs devices the world over have the update as released by samsung. The guy you quoted was right and you should do research before coming in here making wild claims"

How was the guy right. There has been no public statement by Samsung that they released froyo to the carriers and there is no proof that it has happened. You attacked this guy and cannot prove your claims that the poster that started this was right as you claimed. I asked for proof that Samsung made a public statement about releasing froyo to the carriers and that they had it for a month or two and all you can do is attack me. Nice move but seems to be typical of your style.

Now here is something that disputes what you said. In Australia they just started getting the update on 12/22 and won't roll it out to all phones until January. In Canada they started rolling the update out on the 17th and had to suspend it because of issues. Now it started again on the 23.

This certainly indicates that it is more likely a Samsung issue.

Sorry that you have decided to insult people and call them names instead of providing proof for what you say.

fine, I'll quote it for you then. Also

and my favorite

http://www.engadget.com/2010/10/15/galaxy-s-android-2-2-froyo-update-begins-to-trickle-out/

To summarize, samsung officially said september then officialy said november and has released it. Also, whosdaman is a more than proven source so his word is generally taken with some weight. Can you shut up now?

Sent from my CyanogenModded (now much more) Epic. (Much thanks to Noobnl)
[Epic 4G General] raylusk:
When you provide facts that prove what you say I would be glad to shut up. What you done is taken a bunch of press releases and news reports and have come to the conclusion that froyo has been released to all carriers 2 months ago. Samsung says they released it to UK carriers in October and that it should be pushed out to customers in early November. That didn't happen and we don't know if it is the fault of the UK carriers or if the software was faulty and had to go back to samsung. You know like what happened in Canada this month.

No where in those press releases does it say that froyo was released to all carriers 2 months ago as was claimed. In fact all we see is samsung saying updates will happen during certain months for different carriers through out the world and their are many examples where that didn't happen and not in the US. Let's see I already did this but I will point out a few.

1. UK was supposed to happen in early Nov but didn't happen until 12/22. Oops.

2. Canada was supposed to happen in November but didn't start until 12/17 but because the update was damaging some of the phones was pulled, tweaked, and rereleased on 12/23. I suppose that the faulty software was the carriers fault and not samsungs.

3. Austrailia was supposed to release in November but didn't start until 12/22.

So here are three different countries besides the US that didn't release when Samsung said and in the case of Canada even with a later release had to pull the update and you and the other poster can definitively say that the fault was not samsungs.

You need to provide proof that samsung said 2 months ago that froyo was released to the carriers. Also that the carriers are at fault for not rolling it out. Nothing you posted has samsung saying they released it to the carriers 2 months ago and nothing proves who is at fault here.
[Epic 4G General] austin420:
I would say fail on all 3 of those articles.

First one is obviosly refering to the uk and specifically not north america. If you would have shown the follow up tweet, it would clarify.

The second link is also uk, but the endgadget writer says the word "presumably" vibrant, epic, captivate, etc. Well, how presumptous.

The third article specifically cites xda. How official is that?

[G Tablet General] johndarner:
Ok first post here, been following this forum since Thanksgiving day when I first purchased my G Tab. Thanks to all for for you great posts. I kept it with the stock ui software, never modded to a custom rom. Camera always worked with every update until 3389 that I added yesterday. Everything else worked fine. Here is what I did to get the camera working again. I connected the G Tab to desktop via usb and copied all of my apk's to a folder on my desktop. Rebooted holding power and volume up keys until in recovery mode. Then did a system restore by going to Settings -- Security -- Factory Data Reset. After that the camera was working again.

My question is was that the best way to fix the camera issue? I know when I have an issue with a certain app I just reinstall it over the old one and it works fine again. I wish VS had backups of the stock apps available for us so we won't have to do a system restore and have to reinstall all of our apps. Am I wrong about this?

UPDATE: just noticed that I lost Angry Birds with the restore. Had to download from the market and install.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Deleted member 2182971:
I bought nfs yesterday, and cannot get it to play for anything. The furthest I've been able to get is buying a car, it usually closes way before that. It doesn't give me a force close error, just goes back to my homescreen. Does anyone know what the problem is and what to do about it? Thanks!
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] chucky80:
I think they might be selling the version not very compatible with our phone. Mine works fine.

I guess you are past 15 minutes for refund, but contact EA.

I hope you got it for .99 and it's not big of a deal in the wallet department, bummer though you cannot get to work...

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] allthrottle:
I've had it for a month, played/plays great. Completed all races, now need to collect the stars. You should contact EA to see about getting a more compatible version, or just Google NFS shift .apk and download one, since you've already paid.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] kareeem:

For those who can't get it to work, post your your info (like ROM) so we can see what's up.

Still not working... its odd that it just closes to your home screen.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Deleted member 2182971:
Yeah, I did get it on the 99 cent sale, so it didn't hurt my wallet, just sucks that I couldn't return it. I did contact EA, they just gave me the link to their forum, which wasn't a big help. If anyone does have a link to the version that works with our phones, please let me know, and yes, I've paid for it :-)

If your phone number displays as "unknown" in your About Phone settings, that's probably your problem. I believe that issue exists with Macnut.

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Paging Dr B:
It's 99 cents. Pay up or i'm telling EA.

Note: I'm running Nerov3 and it's running fine on mine.

**i'm totally joking about telling EA.**
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Shrivel:
I'm sure I'll get flack for this but, on a serious note, to those that are recommending finding the APK using a Google search -

Go ahead and do this if you'd like. I can't stop you.

BUT, please don't ever post any sort of complaint in these forums about how there's no good games on Android. Along with fragmentation, the primary reason many developers aren't putting resources into any decent games for Android (even though the hardware is perfectly capable and is more widespread than iOS) is because they are afraid of piracy. Spend the cost of a pack of gum and buy apps and games to send the message to devs that Android can be just as viable a market as iOS.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] allthrottle:
P

Im with you brother. Even though I'm a bit hypocritical... I do download all apps first now, but ALWAYS buy if its worth the money. I learned this on my wii and started doing this on my android phones. Game/app creators have been putting out a lot of junk for android and wii, and I've been burned buying games for both. So now, instead of wasting my money up front, I download whenever possible and buy the legit copy if its worth it. There might not be as many pirates if developers didn't put out quite as much junk.

Buy the game/app if its worth the money, not just if its worth the money to you. Nfs is obviously worth it. Great graphics, decent car selection, fun to play.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] deadred:
Im running Axura 2.5.5.8 and no issues did you fullow the directions with the install??
[Android Themes] knzo:
Ok here's the question.

I have an edited framework-res.apk and it works fine if I flash it as whatever.zip after a clean boot.

However, if I replace that same framework-res.apk for the original one before building a ROM and then flash it, it gives me force closes after it boots.

I've read somewhere that the first boot needs the original in order to build the dexs, only after that can a new framework-res.apk be flashed. Now if this is true, how come there are several ROMs with an edited framework without the need to flash later?

Thanks

you should download the rom from htc site regarding your serial number from the phone. and if it says something like not for you device, then .. it is NOT!

in that case try different region, brand .. for me my phone is vodafone - germany. so until i get branded vodafone-germany rom i stuck with the old one.

maybe, but probably NOT!

go HERE, scrool all the way down, enter the serial from your phone, and if it allows you to download, then yes. otherwise NO!

Hello, i have installed WWE 1.66 ROM. Now i have exclamation in triangle on boot and i got 00028002 error when i try to flash anything.

Is there any way to figure out, which HD2 i have? I got error on HTC page, but i doubt that my country have any special type HD2.

Should i get HSLP and the flash any ROM? I guess there is high risk of bricking it in that state.

I had ROM from my signature before i flashed (i got phone with that ROM).

EDIT: flashed back RUU_Leo_HTC_WWE_EastEurope_1.48.479.1_Radio_Signed_15.28.50.07U_2.05.51.05_2_Ship and it works.

Are three any differences between EastEurope LEO and General LEO other by different ROM codes?

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CitizenLee:
Briefly - Most custom ROMs are better optimized for speed, smoothness, battery life, user customization, extra settings etc. Not only that but most bugs are fixed before HTC would ever get round to it.

Do it, you wont look back ;)

If it's anything like the Hero (which I'm sure it is), then flashing an official HTC RUU ROM will remove root.

Best to check in the DHD development section though, there's a FAQ there ;)

Hello,

I have a question about htc wildfire:

Can it run the speedx 3d game or it will lag?
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] Alex_GP:
It will most probably lag because of the wildfire's lack of GPU.

Unfortunately it doesn't work well at all, when i tried it a couple of months back, it lagged like hell and would always freeze the phone with the only fix being to remove the battery. I wouldnt bother with it, in the time it takes to download, test, crash inevitably, remove the battery and restart the phone, the 15 minute refund period will have probably expired.

To get into Download Mode, have you tried:

1. Remove battery, SIM, and microSD if you have one

2. Wait at least 10 seconds with the phone in this "dead" state

3. Hold Vol Up/Vol Down

4. While holding the volume buttons, insert battery

[General Topics] somewall:
I kinda want some with better now and I've found four phones that I can possibly upgrade to:

1. Samsung Galaxy S (i9000)

The Super Amoled and Hummingbird are the selling points. Cheap feeling plasticky body though and no camera flash. 4" is a good size. About USD 650 / HKD 5000

2. HTC Desire HD

Massive beast with fast fast hardware. I believe this is the fastest phone released to date with the second gen snapdragon and 768 mb of ram. 8mp camera with flash. About USD 675 / HKD 5200

3. Dell Venue

Just released in Hong Kong - first country in the world to have it...guess where I live :D:D

1GHz Snapdragon, 512mb ram, 8MP with flash, plastic body with aluminum edges, 4.1" Very good price for the spec....I know judging a product by the brand isnt very good, but Dell isnt a phone brand...dunno if they are good. About USD 514 / HKD 3999

http://www.engadget.com/2010/12/23/dell-venue-launched-in-hong-kong-we-go-hands-on/

4. Google Nexus S

Not out yet in Hong Kong...:mad:

Similar to Galaxy but with a better -looking- body. Exact rom version doesnt really matter to me as long it has the ability to flash a new rom, and since the Galaxy has 2.3 builds and they will be usable by the time the Nexus is released, it isnt really a selling point.

On the plus side, you can get virtually ANY phone contract-less including all of the above and more and also the fourth version of the unmentionable device.
