Read the same info on engadget
Epic is a part of the galaxy S line....but has been treated poorly by sprint and samsung since realease (wasnt really ready for primetime when came out, features striped from phone before release, lengthy time between promised updates). But with all that said still one of the best I've had since G1.

Actually the Epic is one of the better of the US carrier Galaxy S phones. The Epic had the front facing camera working from day one, Verizon's just a few months ago. But as anyone will tell you, the US carriers screwed up the Froyo release and will probably do so with Gingerbread. Europe had Froyo on Galaxy S line at the end of November, US...March. So just because Samsung releases the code, don't hold your breath. Go and grab the ACS leaks. Fully functioning ROM coming soon.

Lol...yes it is.

2.3.5 coming soon?

So the gsii has gotten the update via kies. Hope ours comes soon too and also hope they fix that damn android os bug. What else would you like to see fixed or updated?

Not trying to be a downer here, but coming from the original Epic, we probably have at least a month to wait.

The OG Epic just got GB not too long ago. I had that on my OG EVO in like, what, April? March? thanks to CM...I have been doing aftermarket updates (lol, more like 'beforemarket') since I got into Android, so, I don't know if they even bother issuing minor point releases like this especially with ICS around the corner.
Why go to all the trouble of making the update and the hassles of dealing with carrier approval and stuff like that when they can skip that process and get right to work delaying ICS for 6 months.

All it adds Is overscroll glow and google wallet that we can't use anyways

The OG Evo got gingerbread in June, right before the release of the 3D.
As for the update. LOS fix, Android OS battery leak fix and just some optimization is my hope.
I want ICS, so I hope they're working on that next

Github source for SPH-L710!

https://github.com/EpicCM/SPH-L710_NA_Kernel

Kernel source from Samsung?
Is the github kernel the same kernel that Samsung listed for the SPH-L710 on thier Open Source Release site?

Yes, it is. Its also up under the SGS3 orginization, just to keep everything together: https://github.com/sgs3/SPH-L710_Kernel

Can't wait for the devs to get their phones and see if we can combine all the US forums.

This is excellent news! The development on other phones I had was a bit slow because the source kernel was never posted by the manufacturer. Here Samsung posts the source before everyone even has the phone. This forum is going to explode.

Looking forward to good things here guys!.....THNX for posting this here noobnl!

Here we go, watch devs do their magic;-)

I wonder how many Evo 4G (OG) people are coming over to the S3.
I am still so in love with my phone, it will be hard to let it go, but I'm brining my sister over to Sprint, so she will take that and at least it will stay in the family.
Really hoping we get some top-quality devs like the EVO forums had. I really had a full assortment of ROM's of top quality to choose from.
WOOT!!!!!!

I heard the news baby, all about your disease. Yeah, you may have all you want baby. But I got somethin' you need. Oh yeah!

I am coming from the OG EVO as well! (Although the screen broke and I'm using my brothers old EVO Shift, he upgraded to the 3VO.) I am waiting patiently for the phone to drop on Sprint. I've seen places saying it will come on June 29th. I'm actually getting one for my birthday, which is the same day. I hope they'll have the 32gb in stock.

Thanks noobnl.

Official jelly bean for s3?

This was just posted on Android police. The YouTube vid is in Spanish but the guy said the rom is rumored to be released later this month or early Sept. Looks legit but we will see.

That's for the I9300, we have an entirely different chipset and carrier bloat that will take time to develop.

I think even when jelly bean comes to the carrier's, they still have to put their junk in it. I don't think we will see a carrier official 4.1 anytime soon

maybe im just being optimistic but i think we will get something fairly soon

on the plus side of it the rom just needs to be compatible with our phones SoC instead creating from the ground up, that and ass bloatware of course. Maybe sooner then later.

Who cares when the official Touchwiz version will be out anyway? I'd be willing to bet that CM10 will have a bug free build pushed out within the next 30 days. They're damn close to it already.

It's already silky smooth broham, I would prefer to have the samsung version because of the awesome stuff that comes stock.

Because cyan might have a great build but with JB 100% done he won't have to use hacked features just the kernel will be hacked.

Agree. I haven't even flashed a rom on here cuz well I haven't desired for one since stock isn't that bad at all
Sent from my SGH-T999

I imagine alot of ppl will be underwhelmed when we do get JB. There's not going to be much visually different, and project butter pushing things to 60fps throughout the ui will help, but this is already a pretty smooth phone. I was seeing some lag issues, but I reflashed my current rom & everything is back to silky smooth. Don't get me wrong, JB is a welcome addition to an already amazing device, but it's not going to be like the jump from gingerbread to ics, so I can be patient. Also, as a couple others have stated, I'm loving TW over AOSP now. I never thought I'd say it, but TW is full of incredible additions to Android that I don't want to lose. I love the beauty of stock Android, but it's a fair trade for all of the functionality.

Nexus 4 welcoming commitee, goodbye s3

I recently bought a nexus 7 for school, and i'm an avid follower of my devices developement since i had my galaxy s vibrant. It is SOOO nice getting the update withing a week of google releasing it, i have 4.2 and it is PHENOMINAL!!! We the s3 user base are what.. 4 months past 4.1.1 release, then there is 4.1.2, then 4.2... um two versions behind and no firm commitemnt of release. I used cm10 nightlies for months and the bugs were exausting, but i respect the work they do, excellent but there are nevertheless many bugs, hence the long nigtly list of changes. PURE up to DATE android is sublime.
And quad core w/ 2gb RAM... that was just a dream for s3 users.
I will be selling my s3... buying the 16 gb... forever more be up to date and loving the android expereince... and probably come out with a small profit
no haters please there are plenty of those threads, I would like this to be a support thread for those making the jump from s3 to nexus 4. welcome to the fold!

While I'm glad you are happy, I do have to question this kind of mentality.
I love having my S3, but I would of gotten any other new phone. The S3 just had a significant improvement over my Vibrant.
However, going from S3 to Nexus, while some perks.. I don't see the reason for all the hype. You're still talking about a phone just slightly above on par with the S3. All for what? You'll be getting the same updates, just one gets them faster. It runs about the same speed, or at least from what you can tell without an app.
So.. What's the necessity? What's the reason for such rampant rushing to the newest and best if it is just a slight increase?
Seems to be a mindset that should be avoided, not praised.

I'm sorry but its attitude like this that causes buyers remorse. You should spend a few days in the gnex forums before you quickly realize its no different. Once the gnex got jb people were itching for the next thing which was 4.1.2. Then when they got that they are irxhing again for 4.2. Catch my drift. I say get a device you are happy with and satisfied with the version of android. If you worry about updates you're always going to be worrying and not be satisfied. My 2 cents.

I agree with u.. He's just looking for attention and something to ***** about.. What nice about the s3 is their will always be many different options of ROMs.. Twiz ,Asop , pa, and just different options.. That's what's great about s3s.. I'm betting you'll see him in the nexus thread *****ing about something pointless like he is here and has done in the past just to get some attention.. Good riddance...

You forgot to mention its made by lg which has a piss poor track record for quality, google is already including bumpers with the nexus because the glass back has been very easy to crack. I haven't read 1 review yet saying the n4 is much better than anything else. As for JB updates, between frosty, doc's Sprint port, and Xquzit there are plenty of great choices already.
For me personally JB doesn't have anything in it that I don't have with ics. Ok, I don't have the very latest version of google now but other than that what am I missing?

I hate pointless threads like this. Mod notified.
