TELUS ICS Roll Out has begun! - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Manager of Montréal TELUS store just told me the roll out has begun with some of his clients receiving it. He called me on his OWN to tell me cause he knows what a fan I am, without me ever asking him about an update. I just saw a thread closed coming here to tell you guys about it, hope I'm not violating a rule. . I am very excited Anyway I can force the update?

Do u have the update notification?

You should ask him for a dump of ics from his phone?

Can we either post because you are interested or let this thread die without flaming. The other thread was closed. In the skyrocket forum they can have ICS speculation threads or threads on the note without getting them closed because they only have one or two people who flame everyone.
If this is true this would be a good thread to organize a system dump but that wont happen if it gets closed due to flaming.

These never get old.

To be fair, they probably don't know of it's release anymore than we do (if some reps even know what an Ice Cream Sandwhich is..).
If it's being rolled out now or in the next few days it would explain Telus' site update saying the update would be coming soon. It could also be that the OP saw that too and figured some good ol' trolling was in order.

As with the other thread, this one is now closed - it's of little use and has already attracted an unacceptable amount of flaming.

[Q] Clarification on "locked" of "Unlocked"

First off. I'm a noob. I am not a complete noob, but i do have lots of questions.
I was searching for how to unlock a "Photon 4G" from Sprint or an "HTC Evo 4G" from Sprint and ran across this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1536161&highlight=carrier
Now, in the title of that threat it sais "Unlocked".
I've read and it looks like a normal ROM, so i'm thinking maybe i just don't know the dev "Jargon" and it means something completely different than allowing the phone to use a different carrier. Any help on clarifying this for me would be awesome.
Oh, and what exactly is "Boot Loader Unlock" ??
Didn't you learn your lesson the last time? Try asking your questions in the sections for those phones and you might actually get some answers

So did you just choose a random forum to call home? You do realize that forums are named after the phone that is talked about there... the epic is cdma so it is 'unlocked' by default.

What? If it was "unlocked" we'd be able to roam on att
But op a bootloader unlock is so you can start flashing roms. I think what you're looking for is "sim unlock". Its usually just a code you gotta put in and then you can use your phone on any carrier, as long as its a world phone

Nobody is obligated to "respect" someone who can't "respect" XDA Rules. You know, the ones that the "noob" agreed to when he signed up and registered? I think Frost's reply was justified.

How is it inappropriate? Nowhere in Frost's reply does it get perverse, or "out of hand" I don't understand what the two of you meant by "Respect" that's wrong usage. Perhaps have some "sympathy" fits the bill but respect? Dude, this OP is in the real world, not Elementary School. I'm glad the two of you helped him out, as in the end, getting answers is what he was looking for, but feed one man a fish, he'll be fed for a day, teach a man how to fish, and he'll live for the rest of his life.

It doesn't matter if someone is a criminal or a saint respect is deserved by all. Nobody is entitled to show disrespect to anyone there is no reason to justify it. And Frost comment was the right one to say. The negative tone he directed at he OP was utterly disrespectful. I'm not seeking to start an argument with anyone, because idk anyone on her personally, so your opinion of me doesn't matter. But, what does bother me is the entitlement people get out of sites like these, where they feel as they can talk to anyone how they please knowing that in public he/she is coochieness.

No disrespect or negativity was implied by my thread in any way. The OP had just gotten flamed 2 days before for posting questions about the Touch, hence my post.
I do find it funny though that marcusant said essentially the same thing I did, but noone said boo to him.
Guess I better "recognise".

Amaze already has leaked official TMO ICS OTA few weeks back, I guess we just need a more resourceful member like football on HTC forums who somehow manages to leak most of HTC roms
no it belongs in the ICS speculation thread as until we have the files its speculation.
Example, no many how many analysts say stock xyz is going to perform a certian way, until it does no matter what the proof its speculation.
Just sit tight until a mod tells you the same thing if your to immature to take it from a reg user like myself.

I'd venture that half of the worthless posts on here are people who mistakenly re-post something or search and don't find what they're looking for.
The other 50% are just people jumping on the OP's for not searching enough lol.

Sprint Galaxy Nexus help to unroot and

After all the help I got from a really kind person here who helped me root my phone and flash JB, I am now wanting to unroot, unflash and go back to as if it came straight from Sprint. Is this possible and if so is there anyone willing to explain in detail how to do. Also the last thing I want to do is wreck the phone as I plan on exchanging it at the Sprint store. I have had it only a week. Thank you.
My offer still stands if you would like me to remotely assist you tomorrow and help you flash it back to 100% stock I would be more than happy to.

Considering we haven't had a leak for almost 2 weeks now theres a good chance a lot of people aren't checking everyday anymore. (The usual routes for getting the ota leaks are still not working anyway). Dont know how theirs was released yet.

I was that at one point also, when the G1 came out and JesusFreke was making roms, and people had to use ADB to obtain root and be able to flash things. I learned since then and read and read and read. The problem now a days is that most don't care to read a little, or at all. Most of the questions asked in a thread are answered, or been discussed, or don't even belong in the dev section. This is extremely aggravating to the devs, or themers, when they right up a huge OP and no one uses it, and just clutters up their dev thread with useless questions and/or nonconstructive criticism. I don't blame him for quitting or locking the thread, if people feel it's at its prime, then leave it alone and don't touch it anymore. Most of the TouchWiz roms have the best version yet to come, or they came and went a while ago. Most of the mods they incorporated are flashable on your own, anyways. Thank him and respect decisions, or use one of the other 10+ TouchWiz roms.

Jesusfreke was the pioneer of modding for Android. Without him I believe that we would not be as far with android as devs, manufacturers, or even android its self.
Look at thouchwiz its self with the toggles in the notification Window. This came from cm. We the community can end up pushing for devs with true innovation to go back underground where their work is not seen in mass people, Google, or manufacturers. Then android may end up missing what could become greatness all for petty arguments. I follow one such dev in a private forum and it's a shame he was forced to by thing like this.

Hey guys,
I let this thread go for awhile (I was logged on when he created it) and you all have said your piece/peace, in an almost professional manner which I for one appreciate very much. But now it is time for this OT thread to be closed. I do invite you to the Official OT thread to continue this discussion, as a few have already been doing.
Thanks you for being civil about it, but the time for this thread has expired.
