Does anyone know if the Samsung epic touch 4g is going to get the jellybean OTA?

If it's like ICS I would say you will get a good stable build from Cyanogenmod before Samsung does anything.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app
No, we will not get Jellybean OTA, we were lucky enough to get ICS OTA, and the OTA ICS we did get is full of bugs and issues. AOSP is you're best bet.
Samsung did announce sg2, 3 and notes will all get jellybean. How quick sprint does an ota is different.

Jelly Bean OTA
Also, just to add.....If the GS2 for some reason does not get the full JB update, Samsung said they will release an update with different features from JB.
For those that followed the fh13 may find more info on the jb update from an inside source.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app
I dont see why not. The E4GT is still a high end phone and should be able to handle JB. But Sprint will most likely take a long time to roll it out and by then, we'll have a stable cm10 build
im pretty sure after all the gnex do. hell even the nexus s has it already
With the disaster that ics turned into I can't see jb doing any better.
The Epic is a high end gingerbread device, and will always be a top contender in the gingerbread arena.

I'm sorry but I'm tired of seeing you post the same thing over and over and over again. We all get it, you don't like ICS, or it doesn't work well for you, maybe it kicked your dog... something... be that as it may this is only your OPINION. You refer constantly to the ICS debacle. I'm not sure what this means, as ICS seems to work very well for the large majority of users around here. I'm sure at this point you be tempted to bring up what you think are bugs. Keep in mind these issues do not apply to the vast majority of users. Keep in mind that most of the people posting about how bad ICS is don't even understand why not doing a full wipe and keeping the GB app framework would cause the majority of the issues they are having. Keep in mind most of the people posting these issues seem to be allergic to research and problem solving skills, instead choosing to post "dis broke,y u no fix it for me naow!"The only issue I EVER had with ICS was sub par battery life until I took the time to set things up properly, then I was back to 18-24 hours to a charge with ~4 hours of screen time. Insofar as JB I've been running sbrissens aosp, it is fantastic, definitely an improvement on ICS and I can't wait to see how awesome it ends up given its useability in these really early alphas- I've had no problems using it as a daily driver....lastly as to why you think this is a "GB device" I just simply do not understand. The hardware in this phone is still better than 3/4 or more of the devices currently on the market. Are you telling me you don't think a class leader, like the e4gt, is capable of receiving an os upgrade ~7 months after its launch. Hell, until June this was still the best phone out. Hell, ICS runs awesome on the og evo and the damn hd2! The argument that this phone is a "gingerbread device" is just downright stupid, sorry.
I did not mean to flame you nor am I trying to be an ass. But I've seen you post the same thing so many times I finally had to say something. Your opinion is not fact.
And on topic yes I think we'll see official jb, I could care less though, other than for kernel source , I'm never leaving aosp/cm10/eventually aokp jb for anything... too good...

Is it the new 4.1 update? Because when I flashed it, it was horrible. It was also the Alpha 2. I kept getting lost signal, my 4G kept dropping, my phone stayed in Airplane mode when I turned it on. I kept having to do a reboot.
I don't think I'll be using CM10 until an Alpha 5. I'm running CM9 Alpha 6 and it's running nice for me now.

All those issues have been mostly fixed in the alpha build. There's little to no reports on LOS now. I suggest you give it a try again, you're missing out
I guess Google Voice Dial is still broken and that's a Google issue that only they can fix. If so, that and the small and dark desk dock screen are enough to keep Jelly Bean from being a daily driver for me on any phone.

Huge downgrade for something that's in alpha stage to not be working perfectly?
Netflix upgraded to work with android 4.x back in december with the galaxy nexus release. Like other people who saying I think it's more to do with the actual rom than anything else. I'm sure with the next series releases these minor compatibility issues will be fixed.
Its netflix now but what else isn't working? There are programs other people use on a daily basis not seen at the moment with the current developers and testers using this beta style rom. We are not status quo. There's only a few people using calk's fb17 release at the moment...100 max I am willing to gamble.
The real question is what else isn't working? What other programs like netflix are not running correctly on this version of ice cream sandwich. Maybe there's an off chance that we can isolate the problems similar to what's going on with netflix and other programs and somehow cross check them together with other programs/APKs to find some related issue and tackle it from there.
Until then, like others, I'm gonna stay back on a regular android 3.x rom and work from here because I can't make it through my work night without netflix. It's too damn boring here at usps. 2 hours of work and 6 hours of downtime makes kevin a dull boy. here's hoping an even more stable release is put out so that we can have basic yet minor things like netflix back. Even though it may not seem that important to some other joe schmo across the internet at least a few of us actually desire something like netflix so I wouldn't judge too much.
Oh and by the way, I think this is working with my fb15 version last night so who knows maybe its just some issue isolated to the fb17 rom. I would check but I'm not at home. I really don't feel like temporarily breaking my phone for the evening. If someone wants to check to make sure you could try to flash the old fb15 release and see how netflix runs on that...or if it runs at all.

Like every other release for any OS, software patchwork needs to be done. What is truly exciting about ICS is that Google is requiring manufacturers not to mess with the base of the OS. Which means developers update once and it should be compatible with all. Its exciting mainly because some cool devs for ios have been holding back due to android manufacturers messing around. Now they should easly convert to android.

Quick question, and I'm not sure if it matters or not but how did you go about flashing calks rom? I can think of 3 or 4 different ways I can go about getting everything installed with this fb17 rom. I'm trying to figure out the difference between what you did what I did and how I can possibly get this to work for my phone. last time I installed it on a freshly flashed cwm as well as the fb15 modem. Then I even reverted back to stock el29 modem and rom, then installed calks rooted and deodexed fb17 rom keeping the el29 modem (doubt it matters much which modem I had). just wanted see if you did nothing there for different...or...something

My first 2 units suffered from hot reboots and dropped data even on stock roms. I hosed my 2nd phone and the third is on the way. I've been using my Epic 4G Touch this week and it flat out smokes the Nitro. Even running CM9 overclocked, the Nitro is slower than a stock GS2. I love the screen on the Nitro but the battery life and bugginess make it hard to deal with sometimes. I still think that a finished build of CM9 or even LG's version of ICS can make it the phone it should've been.

Stock for now, but another aftermarket ROM that I gave to my wife for her HTC Incredible is MIUI. Look for a previous build though (GB), the new ones are utter sh*t IMHO. I've had a lot of fun with MIUI back in the days of FroYo.
Stock rooted jb its great.
If she's a "below average" user.
Then stock JB.
If she wants to have fun with phone and is actually able to remember things about the phone, CM9/10
If she wants to get all complicated, then AOKP.

If I have helped you.... hit that sexy thanks button. ^_^
Bleh stock... I suppose that's not a bad option on aosp the words stock on her old phones are terrible because of touchwiz and Moto blur
Cm9 is pretty stable though i assume. Any bugs?
CM9 Skyrocket
Stock anything, rooted for AdAway but that's probably about it. I've had too many experiences with non-power users doing that angry thing people do when they don't comprehend technology.
MIUI. Simple, clean, extremely customizable.
My gf doesn't even want to try a new rom, she really seem to enjoy it.
BUT, and this is major point, my gf actually isn't that much into technology, so i assume she just wants the cutest and most user friendly experience.

It's not that girls can't use ROMs, its that he's talking about rooting and ROMing her phone when she has no idea what's going on. I'm all about girls being into hacking phones, but only if they do it themselves!
I don't condone rooting and ROMing someone else's phone unless they know what's going on and could do it themselves.
I guess I'd just leave it stock and make her a custom Fashion Barbie Nerdgirl of the Undead theme or something, for brownie points.

Am I the only person in the world that chose ICS over JB?
When I got my Nexus GSM, I instantly upgraded it to JB. Don't misunderstand me, JB was really awesome. However, simple and featureless... I supposed that's why people make ROMs, to build on what Google gave us.
Well, I like features, lots of features, so I installed AOKP M6. And I absolutely love that ROM, but I am wondering if there is anything comparable to it that's JB based. Guess in my mind I am waiting for AOKP JB ROM to move into couple milestone revisions...
AOKP's current builds can be found here:
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/30659-all-devices-in-source-aokp-jellybean-nightlies-update-nightly/
(Sorry for cross-forum posting...TeamKang is Rootzwiki exclusive now. I don't want to step on any toes by posting this thread on XDA)
They're lacking in comparison to the ICS builds...but if you check the change-log in the OP...it's got quite a bit.
But no, you're not alone.
I stayed on ICS a lot longer than most did. I only switched over due to my love of AOKP...and the fact that %90 of my "required" mods are already included. Except for the Remove NavBar option...but I've been making a flashable .zip for that since they were first released for personal use and for anyone else who wants it.
Nope. Recently downgraded again, see my signature. xD

Some people just like it simple, that's part of why they chose to go with a nexus.
Android is beautiful.
I went the opposite way, at least for a time. I typically "require" the features found in CM, but ran Bigxie's stock builds for a few weeks and was very happy that way, just had to install a few apps to fill in the gaps, notification toggles, an app for profiles and quiet hours, etc... The overall feel of JB trumped that of ICS for me. For me even a vanilla JB build is better than a great ICS build with customizations, etc...
That said, I've been on a CM10 kang for 2-3 weeks now.
This thread makes no sense. You don't like ICS better. Its just that aokp happened to not merge everything yet. Once there is a JB equivalent are you still saying you'd stay with ICS?

I went to Vegas this weekend and flashed a Stock based ROM on my GS2. I carried 2 phones around, my main Nexus 4 and GS2.
I must say, with all honesty, in low light settings and just in general, the GS2 camera is still awesome. Hands down. Kinda makes me sad. The one annoying part is I had to keep killing tasks and clearing memory when I could. Battery just dies if I don't kill tasks constantly.
As a phone, its still great. I love my Nexus 4, but GS2 was my go to phone when it came to Camera shots. I never would have gotten the Nexus 4, if GS2's resolution was higher given the screen size.
Anyhow still a champ, even 2 plus years this phone still has my uses. I am keeping it stock mainly for Camera performance.
My two cents.
Oh yeah forgot I was running the stock 4.1.2
It'd be nice for 4.2.2 but I'm thinking this device has reached it's limit. At 768 MB of memory, it does drag and slow down on stock. Anything above Jellybean, I'd be surprised to see an official ROM for it. Regardless this device kicks booty in CM10.1

Honestly I was super shocked with the jb update, but this phone is more popular than you give credit, and I think we may see 4.2. I mean it already runs quite smooth just with CyanogenMod and jb 4.1 and 4.2 aren't too much different. Now I don't think we're gonna see a big touchwiz update, but I think they may update the android version.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app
Folks,
I tend to agree, we likely will never see stock 4.2.2. The odds of this happening are low. Samsung has too much hardware in the wild to really consider Hercules for another update. I know getting hardware support hinges on staying on vendor supported releases. The gear is already +/- 2 years of age. Phone companies consider retirement at that point to simplify their supply chains. Especially considering all the new gear coming out, SG4, Note 2, etc adnasium.
There comes a time you fish or cut bait. I cut bait a while back. I am even moving my wife to a used sg2s Hercules from a nexus s. Here nexus s is a dog compared to my herc.
Hercules just got cm 10.1 in the last couple days. 4.2.2. Via clock work mod.
I am running aokp. It is 4.2.2. Latest rc 1.
It is smooth and has all the bells. I am considering a different kernel at this time. What I am running though is very stable. No crash no lock up no pause. Plus keep number of apps to as low a minimum as possible.
There are ways to get better battery performance. Especially when you happen to carry two phones and use Hercules as a camera. Cut it back to 2G and kill all syncing. You will see a massive improvement in battery performance.
Also get an app from play store that is free that came from xda that helps track which apps are using Cpu and engaging the screen. It is called wake lock detector.
You will not get days and days of battery but you will see marked measurable improvement and still be running jb 4.2.2

Honestly, I don't think this version of the Galaxy SII is gonna receive Jelly Bean 4.2.2 officially. I'm surprised that we even got a Jelly Bean update considering how buggy ICS was. Also, 4.2.2 custom ROMs seem slower than their 4.1.2 cousins on this device, with the exception of those compiled with Linaro.
In short, there's a slight possibility we'll get 4.2.2 TouchWiz but I doubt it.
