Now with Android 2.3

Sprint's website is now advertising the Evo 4G with 2.3
Do you think the update will be pushed out anytime soon?
XDA app on EVO 4G

I say give it within a month. Most of us here on AOSP are already on 2.3.4.

There's a thread over in the general section that has some good info on it, its getting more interesting too

Could you post a link to the thread
XDA app on EVO 4G

It's obviously a typo. As for whether it means that an official 2.3 is coming out soon... It's kinda hard to say for sure, but we are coming up on that Q2 deadline that seems to have been thrown around. So, if that timeframe is honest then it should be another month at most.
I lucked out in that I have an Epson screen, so I'm running the 2.3 with Sense that's out, without the screen brightness problem. Close enough to flawless for me

The existing thread in General: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1092577
It's pretty close to the top of the first page, hard to miss.

A lot of it is rumors that guy the OP put a link to the wrong phone and thought it was the evo 4g . So it's not reliable . But the evo 4g will get a OTA soon dunno what it is tho.

Yeah that thread is full of speculation. However, if you go on to sprint.com and check out the evo, it does say that it ships with android 2.3
But, as I said earlier, it's a typo.

Well I believe sprints site. Doubt it was a typo lol if it is I wouldn't wanna be the guy that did it his ass be on fire from the boss if it was lol.

I dunno. My guess is that there was a bulk update to the site and this just happened to slip through.
I admit though, I really hope that I'm wrong and that we really are getting an official 2.3 really soon.

Yep. SalvageMod 1.2.1 (Nightly #26) is definitely 2.3.4 and I love it. Still, I look forward to the upcoming Sense version, however, if it's like the leaked version, I'll pass on it and stay with SalvageMod.

Its not at all a typo, it says 2.3 in multiple spots throughout their site and one of them even boasts "Now with Android 2.3!"

Engadget posted that this morning. They updated it and said it was mistakenly posted

FC02?

I was messing with some URL tests for the next RDF and I don't get a 404 on http://device.sprintpcs.com/Samsung/SPH-D710/FC02.rdf ??? Maybe nothing but with the amount of updates we have seen it makes me wonder if another is coming...

Weird lol. Fc02 would be tomorrow. We'll find out soon what's up.

No, there are already ICS leaks (check development forum), and you have already been presented with the entirety of the knowledge of FC02. It's just a blank mock up page, so we know nothing about it. Well, nothing except the fact that the webmaster thinks there will be an FC02.

No ETA, except it will be released when all the bugs are worked out. Could be a week, could be two months. No real benefit in even thinking about it yet.

You won't find one for this phone right now. And if you do happen to find a release date it's going to be for the International version of the phone only since they will get the update before us. Like I said be patient if you chose not to be and flash something that's not for this phone welcome to brick city. It pays to wait it out just be happy that it's being worked on and it will get here sooner then most people think.

i LOVE reading page source and URL fiddling (on all sorts of websites), you can find lots of fun stuff if you know how to read it.
(example, and I know this is totally OT: one of my favorite artists, Jose Parla, makes it terribly hard to find "better resolution" versions of his images online, and I have been wanting them for ages. (If you are into graffiti at all, check him out!)
If you go to his site, heavy Flash embeds, slow as **** to load, and the images are tough to get at. www.joseparla.com
but with a little source viewing, a little URL fiddling, was able to find this: www.joseparla.com/parlaweb/node/111
now I have all of my fave paintings as a rotating desktop theme. wheee!)
Sorry, back OT we go....

Nothing new about posting rdf's a few days early. Use to happen all the time on Epic. I use to think it was because they did numerous builds in one day so they stacked them.

Ics! Cm7! Cm9! Omfg!

Just thought there hasn't been an ICS post in the past couple hours so...
THEY HAVEN'T RELEASED ICS OR CM FOR THE T989 OMG!!!
Seriously...you don't even have to search...there are about 4 or 5 ICS posts on the front page...quit wasting our time and just be patient. The forum will blow up with about 100 posts when there actually is news about ICS....
As Reagan said...trust but verify. For all you idiots who find it neccisary to post every ICS scrap you can..
When you read some **** that says the GS2 has/is getting/drivers/etc for ICS, here is a simple step-by-step to determine weather you should post a thread to XDA:
1. Its probably for the international (i9100). We don't give a **** about the internatonal. Just stop reading and go about your business if you even see the word "international". Don't even look at the words if you see a button on the front of the phone on the picture. We don't have a button.
2. our AT&T counterpart is the SKYROCKET (t727). it looks EXACTLY like ours. not the AT&T SGS2 (t777). See 1 on how to deal with news about the AT&T SGS2.
3. If you still think the article has to do with our phone, look for T989. Push ctrl+f (or command+f) and type in t989. If it's not there, don't waste our time.
4. If you find T989 after pushing ctrl+f...read it in context. Most likely its an ad or just confirms you are an idiot for thinking the article meant ICS is coming to the t989.
5. Still hopeful? Repeat 3-4 and search t727.
6. If you are still unsure...repeat steps 1-5.
7. Still think its about the t989?? Just delete your XDA account.
8. Are you just crazy sure that it has to be about the t989?? Check XDA. Somebody will still post ICS threads every hour...
9. I'm sorry if you still think your news is about the t989 after going through all that you should just give up on life now.
10. Don't post anything. Just don't post. Period. Please. Don't. Post.
By following this simple 10-step process, you can determine weather you should post an ICS thread! And maybe it will cut down on ICS posts...I hope this helps you guys...
PS: Sorry if I seem like a troll and actually mislead somebody by my title...just sick of it as everyone else is.

OMGF!! finally!!!
U get thanks bro
BEST POST EVER!!!

What people misinterpreted about the articlea were that the article mainly mentions international version. Later articles stated that carrier variants would be dependent on the carrier themselves and their own timeline as we'll as other factors. Those factors being that the us has tons of variants using different processors. People sawsgs2 and assumed it meant for us.international did indeed get ics q1 as they said.

Hrrmm slower HW at time of release compared to T959,
Very easy to brick,
S-On/S-off,
No SAMOLED+ display,
Less Internal Storage,
Screen more fragile?
I think that is a good short summary, or at least all the reasons that kept me from going HTC and getting SGS2 when coming from the Vibrant.
As a Vibrant owner I know full well the pain of waiting for Official releases.

So does this mean we are getting it now? I didn't have time to read 2 pages..

Correct. And do to those timelines us carriers probably wont see ICS till probably Q2
People just see the galaxy name and don't realize its a family of devices.
But at the same time, why would samsung support only international, and leave their TOP SELLING DEVICE out?
So to say we wont get it is a little far fetched to say the least

That's what I figured! The official statement doesn't actually include ANY US versions of the GSII line. I can't stand US carriers anymore! Looks like I start saving now for my next phone in 2 years. Must...get...off...subsidized phones!

Everyone spam the tmobile discussion forum for the sgs2 and maybe we'll get a definate time table for annoying them so much

There is a reason for a sticky you know, failure to read a sticky and posting around it is good cause for flaming or an infraction in my opinion.
Honestly, if u never read a sticky, should definately start..

I just called them, and yes when you ask for tech support, it does tell you about an update, I spoke to someone about it, its the T999UVLH2 update. Its still being rolled out to people. Not 4.1.

U are right sir just heard it for myself but it does not say 4.1 they are probably talking about UVALH2 still bring pushed out

I called, and the recording points you to www.t-mobile.com/support.
From there you can see the SGS3 link, which has a big green "software update available" button. Click that, and it clearly spells out that the update is for 4.0.4, T999UVLH2.

Samsung Put OTA System "on hold"???

Does anybody have any information to add that can possibly explain? I went to my usual 2 sites for ota releases and saw this. Had to double and triple check it! And I haven't found ANY explanation anywhere!
Basically when I checked live.samsung-updates.com I noticed the two "Notes" you can see in the screenshot. As it turns out they haven't had an ota for any device for over 2 days! I checked sammobile.com and it looks like our latest ota was their last for any device...3 days ago!
They also state that most otas for the i9300 and legacy otas have been deleted from Samsungs system!
Can anyone enlighten me as to whats going on here? Is this temporary or was UVALI8 the last ota we will get?
It just seems odd that there isnt hardly any info about this and that the update sites have seemed rather quiet about it. (Or is this something that happens enough to be normal and I just never noticed before?)
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app

Maybe clearing them out getting ready for official.

I think there getting it ready for the i9300 Jb release

Maybe they are waiting for a fix to the NFC vulnerability before publishing anything?

Then why would they take their entire ota system offline? The i9300 wasn't the only device they had otas for. Im talking about every Samsung device worldwide is no longer getting the leaked otas.
Honestly I just threw the info about the deleted ones because it was right there.
What im curious about is why they took down the whole ota system apparently and if its temporary.
Seems like not one device has had an ota leak in 3 days. Kind of unusual I thought.
I guess not though. Oh well. Thanks anyway guys.

It has said that for a couple weeks now. They are referring to their own site that posts the otas. It went down for a few days and now needs fixing. ( notice there is no info about versions). They posted that originally saying they were on vacation and would have everything back to normal by that date.
The 2 notes Im referring to were put up yesterday and are referring to Samsungs system, not their site. (They cant get otas anymore because Samsungs OTA system is "on hold")
Also notice that they haven't had an ota for going on 3 days now while sammobile hasnt had one since our UVALI8 going on 4-5 days ago. Im pretty certain they usually have several everyday. They post otas for all Samsung devices all over the world. Or at least they used to?
On hold sounds temporary but youd think there might be a little more info about it somewhere.

Interesting. Wonder if they pulled them all bc of some vulerability that was exposed. Just a thought.
Edited out my previous post re: date time-lines and possibly being back up this weekend.

Could be. Wish I could know for sure.
I was just hoping for one more jb leak to play with! Preferably one without the huge battery drain problems! Lol
Guess we'll just have to wait and see.

No kidding! Like you said, we would think that if there was a problem or they were doing significant maintenance they would have posted SOMETHING to let people know. Maybe in some weird way could it be related to one of the lawsuits? It's disconcerting that all of a sudden everything coming from them in regards to the updates for ALL devices would just drop of like it has. I suppose that's why you made this thread

Yea it would be nice to get a leak that doesn't sip 6% an hour! android system is very thirsty! Anyways I think the site will be back up. Because if there was a problem with Samsung and leaks being posted it would have been dealt with already. Maybe there was a crash on the site? Maybe maintenance or an overhaul of the site? Idk just throwing things out there

Thats pretty much why. I dont mind waiting however long it takes for new updates, but yeah when they just stop like that for everything it makes me wonder why.
I do understand that the otas are not official, just leaked, and may not warrant explanation from Samsung themselves, but what I posted in the op was ALL I could find! No one even discussing it just seems odd to me.
I would have thought its becsuse Sammy doesn't want these leaks getting out, but with there being established web sites devoted to getting them out for a while now, its not like they haven't known about it. Im sure they've been taking full advantage of it for testing and fixes like you find in our dev section.
But yeah, after finding no discussions or good info at all, I decided to post what I knew here. You never know who knows or found something I couldn't. Or maybe one of the guys that had a bead on the ota releases knows something theyd be willing to share?

Samsung hub or w.e is going to be down too. It's likely Samsung is just doing maintenance. Is it sammy or tmo that hosts the official jb update? I could see the need to beef things up before millions of phones update.

It very well could be maintenance. But then i have to ask why they deleted the i9300 otas? Maintenance...could be. Its just the lack of any information that made me wonder. Usually stuff like that gets mentioned on sites like sammobile, but I didn't even see it in their forums. I didnt even realize it had happened till yesterday.
it just struck me as odd so I figured I'd ask.
Like I said, just gotta wait and see what happens I guess.

I believe the official fw updates go out as ota patches from tmobile. But you can download the full fw from Samsung or one of the ota sites. They roll out fota updates in phases so doubt they are lacking the infrastructure for it anyway.
Where did you see that Samsung hub will be down too? Is a timeframe given?

Samsung sent out an email yesterday or the day before. I deleted it to test another thread saying mail didnt sync. Whoops.

Yay trash folder!
Dear Samsung customers,
There will be scheduled Smart Hub maintenance will occuring on Tuesday, September 25th from 9:00 PM - 5:00 AM (EST). During this time you may experience difficulties connecting to Smart Hub servers and using various functions of the Smart Hub service (App download, App launch, Smart Hub ID creation, etc). Do not setup repair service for Smart Hub issues during this time. The Smart Hub service should be restored at or shortly after 5:00 AM (EST).

Thx man. At least you got an email about that though.
I suppose it could be related if they are doing massive network upgrades or something. Otherwise one probably has no bearing on the other.
Lol. Isnt that the same day they're offering the avengers for free?
Everyone watch out for that time zone! 9 EST is 6 PST im pretty sure.

Still no change.
Haven't searched for new info in a few days though so maybe there's a better explanation out there somewhere?

I'm really itching for a new leak! This getting mildly frustrating.
