[Fascinate General] GizmoDroid:
Or unless someone leaks the kernel source to wikileaks!

This reminds me... I've been wondering about JT's boot animation kernel. Did he just patch the leaked DL30 kernel somehow? His ASOP froyo kernel still has some things not implemented, so I don't think it's based off of that. Ah, this little side note has become too long and is now off topic.

Anyway, isn't it a goal of BLN to get all of their implementation out of the kernel so that any kernel can be used? I think supercurio is trying to do that with the Voodoo sound driver too, so that it won't need to be added to the kernel.

I fully support this, especially if we start seeing more fascinate froyo (or higher) leaks.
[Fascinate General] imnuts:
There won't be a working bln kernel until we have source to build from. Boot animation support is one of the few things that can be changed about the kernel we have.

I have an Evo and iIreally want the tunderbolt. If I can somehow "put" it on sprint can I still use 3g? Do they use the same bands is what I'm asking.
[Networking] ibejack96:
i think they both use the 800 and 1900 cdma bands. You'd have to get someone who works for sprint to activate it specially though because it's (obviously) not an official sprint phone

[Networking] kdj67f:
Yes, they do. I used to have a fully functioning Sprint touch pro operating on Verizons network. But good luck getting either carrier to activate the others phones. I know Verizon closed that loophole years ago.
[Networking] LargePrime:
ESN transplant
[Networking] dfc849:
As it was said, the MEID / ESN could theoretically (and illegally lol) be modified to emulate a separate device. The phones themselves have very similar hardware in the fact that they can operate on either network. The 3G chipset includes two bands -

the 800MHz 'Cellular Band' which is preferred by Verizon, and

the 1900MHz 'PCS Band' which is preferred by Sprint.

It operates as a standard switching band unit, as it will operate in hybrids between bands and protocols (2G/3G) as it scans for networks.

To fully adapt a device to a different network environment, extensive and thorough programming is required, along with good relationships with people on the 'inside,' or people who can get a foreign device activated on the new network. Another option would simply be to pay for a Verizon plan, but operate the phone itself on the Sprint network by flashing a divested PRL, which tells the phone to primarily use Sprint's backhaul, or network, to carry a Verizon customer's traffic - or even vice versa.

Unfortunately, though, the 4G experience will not longer be. The 4G bands on the devices differ at the hardware level, so there is no possibility of transferring the device for use with foreign 4G networks.

Google has the Nexus phones as reference platforms for Android 1.x, 2.x. Is there any indication if there will be a reference tablet for 3.X?

If I invest in a tablet, I would like not to get tangled in the vendors proprietary software and Android software update delays.

[General Questions and Answers] InGeNeTiCs:
Looks like the moto xoom might end up being that device. While google hasn't labeled it as a developers device, it's an unmodified honeycomb build. Keep in mind too, the nexus one wasn't originally released as a developer device.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eXclusiveOR:
ever since i upgraded to 2.2.1 (JPY) my mails in the e-mail application (not the google one) stopped being synchronized automatically, no matter what i set as mail checking interval there. i have tried without security settings and with "SSL (accept all certificates)". 3 accounts, all standard IMAP accounts (no exchange), fetching mail from them manually is working just fine.

when i watch "Running Services" for some time i see an email fetch background task appear and disappear every now and then.

i had stock 2.1 rom before and there it was working just fine.

synchronization is also turned on, although at least in 2.1 this wasn't necessary for automatic mail fetching to work, so i think it isn't related.

any ideas? :confused:

thanks already.

[Epic 4G General] DroidApprentice:
Praise be, but what is their source...? Guess I'll search and hopefully find soon, because if it doesn't come from an official Sprint channel, I regard it as pretty much BS. Thanks for posting though.
[Epic 4G General] gtuansdiamm:
Yay maybe this time the release date is real
[Epic 4G General] Superbovine:
Citation Needed lol.

I hope it is true, but with the comment about the tablet being announced, this makes it look like someone is speculating and rolling the dice. (How many times have we heard "I have an inside source, it is DEFINITELY this <significant date>" ?) If you throw turds at the wall, sooner or later one will stick.

I hope it is true though, and it does make sense to do it during the big hoopla
[Epic 4G General] tony45x220:
I didn't even crack a smile reading that article....this damn Epic had the most hype I've ever seen for a phone....and now we get the least respect with this late ass Froyo release...lol, I'm just waiting for the source code to see what our great developers can cook up for us!

That's if this release date is actually lidgit...
[Epic 4G General] muyoso:
Well that would be awesome if its true. 2 weeks inbetween the official and the source being released means that I would get to use the official rom for around 2-3 weeks before meaningful roms are released with new and exciting features.
[Epic 4G General] DroidApprentice:

[Epic 4G General] Magic Oreo:
this

i don't believe anything sprint/samsung has to say about anything. as it was also officially claimed froyo would be ours before the end of the year.

and really, all i want is source code...for CM.
[Epic 4G General] snowmanwithahat:
Agreed and if they "coincidentally" made a real announcement and rolled out Froyo they'd be endlessly mocked for their failure (more so than now) to roll it out in time because of the fact they tried to cover it up with a big event.

.... probably be mocked more if the big event was to actually announce Froyo too.... either way its bad and won't involve froyo

Sprint likes to spread things out. I think someone heard about the big announcement and made an assumption about froyo. I hope I'm wrong, but we won't know until Monday.

[Epic 4G General] Darkk69:
Given the history that nobody releases anything on a MONDAY

You realize of course the 7th is on a Monday. I rarely seen anything gets released on a Monday. Normally it's on a Tuesday to give folks at the call center a chance to read the memo on Monday before the floodgates open.

If by fat chance the rumor is true that the 7th is the release date we won't actaully see the it on our phones until some time later due to the way OTA works. It's all done in batches until the phone receives all the files to update.

Point is don't lose sleep over this. It'll happen so go about your business until you get a pop up on your phone to update it.

[Epic 4G General] snowmanwithahat:
The thing is... I'd really like to know when it happens because people on modded roms won't know until they go back to stock...
[Epic 4G General] Darkk69:
Well, you have a valid point. However, those who modded their phones do check these fourms so once we are actually seeing the OTA updates and they don't see it then they will know to revert back to stock ROMs.

[Epic 4G General] Esteway.619:
Why u got to talk ****. What's wrong with the score huh?
[Epic 4G General] muyoso:
So the people who say they don't care are completely content with the giant bugs of DK28? Wifi errors and power button issues and SMS issues, etc? I would rather my phone not remind me of my Windows Mobile days where I would have to hope and cross my fingers that everything went right while showing a friend a cool feature. I would rather not pull down the notification shade, hit wifi and then sit there for 30 seconds while it does nothing, only to realize that its throwing errors, and then go into settings and wait for it to finally fail at turning on wifi so that the checkbox actually becomes usable again.
[Epic 4G General] muyoso:
Nothing is wrong with your score. Just don't fool yourself that your phone is twice as fast as an Evo and 2.5 times as fast as a stock Galaxy S without overclocking or any kernel tweaks. A dev could make a rom that broke 3k with Quadrant, doesn't mean its any faster at all than the Epic4g with stock eclair.
[Epic 4G General] styckx:
Besides being completely false, inaccurate and meaningless, nothing is wrong with it.

You never once turned on wifi and had it hang and never turn wifi on? I have had it happen across 4 separate DK28 roms including stock DK28, using two seperate Epics.
[Epic 4G General] Esteway.619:
Well I can see what u mean but my wife has a epic as well on stock 2.1 and mine runs twice as fast and my friend has a evo and mine runs faster on wifi and 3g. I know the scores are not accurate but it gives an idea
[Epic 4G General] Esteway.619:
I did on one rom. But other than that even on stock dk28 I didn't have those issues b4
[Epic 4G General] muyoso:
Your phone does not run twice as fast as the Epic on 2.1. Just because a benchmark says so doesn't make it reality. Froyo is good, but not THAT good. I wish it were the case.
[Epic 4G General] Esteway.619:
I'm not talking about score wise I mean I compared both of them side by side with screen response browser load and GPS lock and download speed and mine was faster

Snap's 7.6 kernel had Evo's going over 2400 easy. One guy made a custom rom and with Snap's kernel it was hitting +2900 easy. Was it faster? Nope...not at all. Felt like regular ol' CM6 (the custom rom was AOSP and Snap's kernel was only for AOSP).

I have an assignment as well.

link up your favorite bluetooth earpiece. Stream some Pandora (or slacker if you like).. feel free to use wifi or 3G..

While streaming, have someone call you. Take the call.. return to streaming.. then get sick of streaming and turn off your streaming music. Try to make a call.. what ?? problems.. Oh I know.. listen really carefully to the phone's earpiece.. heat it pop every once in a while randomly ?? I do.. Turn off your earpiece now.. Now play with your phone a bit.. all the sounds that should normally come from the phone's external speaker are now coming from the phone's earpiece.. don't believe me ?? It's ok.. have someone call you and listen carefully where your ringtone comes from.

And the bluetooth stack on DK28 has no problems :rolleyes:
[Epic 4G General] shook187:
I personally don't have a bluetooth device, so I can't perform those test. All I'm saying is the way I use my epic currently, I have no issues and I don't even care if we ever get the official 2.2 cause I'm perfectly happy with DK28.

OP updated. New zip file for MetaMorph to fix the Power Menu from soft rebooting.

Also just flashed bonsai myself. Theme took as expected on plain DK28. Flashed the theme first, then the system apps folder. Nothing FC, but the Settings.apk didn't take. Both are version 2.2.1 so I replaced the current one in systemappsCWM3.zip with the one from the Bonsai Rom and it works. So if you are running Bonsai and flash the systemapps.zip, the Settings.apk will not take. You HAVE to flash the systemappsCWM3.zip for this to work!
