Need to check the update on such link...
Update: Well now, we've just received a flurry of tips indicating that it's been pulled and, indeed, the page on the other end of the source link is now gone. We'll try to figure out what went wrong here.
We will need to keep waiting

Holy crap! The first 12 threads I didn't believe it, but now I'm stunned.

Yea maybe read a few posts down in the section before you post AGAIN! Please close this thread.

Other posts are people who think they are receiving the update.. this was actually posted then removed.
Just giving a heads up. It's kinda funny!

Same exact thing posted this morning...

T-mobile is sending out OTA 2.0.1 already for G1 and MT3G

see http://simflecks.com/?p=1082
if you've gotten it post a dump so it can be rooted
Hey whats the commands to dump the phone?
I unrooted my MT3G so its on 1.6 atm.
And oddly I don't believe it. Until T-Mobile gives the announcement, itis all speculation.
@Ace just get a logcat app and IF you get it, run it and post it, we will get the link for it.

Fail. This article was dated from last year.
I know noone knows me from anything.. but Im not out for attention on this.
When I went in to change my plan last week and check my upgrade credit it was in mid morning and I was the only customer so I was able to sit down with the re for a while talking about phones and he showed me the fender Mytouch demoo.. blah blah.. Anyway.. When we were talking about if I should wait for the fender mytouch or get a CLiq, he mentioned to me that the new updates would be officially out between feb 7th-21st. I asked him what build he said depending on the phone 2.01 and 2.1. He knew I had a G1 and he said that I may be getting 2.1. This guy has been working in the same store for about 4 years so I know hes not some rambling new guys saying whatever I want to hear.

Shall we make a thread for all of us to drool over the thoughts of custom roms coming soon? i think yes .

Could you imagine that awesome FireFly theme on GingerBread....DOWANT. What about you guys? Lets have soemthing to talk about until those roms start pourin out from all the freakin awesome devs here.

Well that would also go against the AOSP thing hah. But i agree that would be awesome to have a good camera going in CM7. I also am hopefull for the things that this I9000 source can bring to CM7 and MIUI even if it cant help the camera (or maybe it can lol)

Why the attitude, the guy is just simply trying to avoid cluttering the forum. A simple "Ohh I didn't know, thanks for pointing out" should have been enough. Why are people so deffensive?. I missed the old WM days.
Thread closed and will closed other threads with the same topic, posted today, tomorrow or a year ago... simple as that.

Radio leak / removed threads

A few threads have been removed the past few hours. These are regarding a leaked radio which is known to brick devices and has been taken from a compromised server.
Reposting will not be tolerated. Distribution through PM, or even hinting that you may be available to spread it through PM or other methods, will be treated as open reposting. "Vacations" will be dealt out to those who do so.
This is both for your own good as for the good of others. Some of you are able to read between the lines - I have read it in your posts - and good for you.
Have patience, it will come.
if you build it they will come...
Thanks for posting. This should really be a stickied topic as its a highly talked about subject.

I think the important thing is to protect sources. Not sure if it is bricking or not. Though I don't want to be the one to find out.

bamf team is coming out with a new sense 3.0 rom(there is a preview zip available in the bamf 2 beta thread) so im guessing there is something coming soon, he seemed to stop once the brick issue came about, so why else would they and others update and create new roms for GB radios.
It wont brink you, its just to protect sources and legal issues probably. Im using it and its much better than the first leak, only got one reboot in the few hours my phone was on

The fact that we have an MR2 Radio means GB could be right around the corner. I have had one reboot with it, (although that might have been a fluke, as the phone had 3% battery left), and so far it is very stable, and I wouldn't be surprised to see an official build out soon.

Is Infuse 4G Development Dead or what?

Kinda curious what's going on here. Seems since mid-June there hasn't been much progress made on Infuse ROMs\mods. Is it that the phone is being somewhat swept under the rug in the shadow of the SGS II or is there just a bit of a waiting game to see if we'll get Gingerbread, or is the phone just not popular enough to develop for? From those I've talked to at @T&T, they say it's still their hottest phone as of July 1... so not sure why so quiet on here. Maybe it's just that since it's great out of the box people aren't as compelled to work on it?

EL OH EL... Development isn't dead... It's just pointless to do any further development at this point, with a GB leak right around the corner, either with a leak, or the Rogers Infuse.

Thanks for the info
And I have little respect for those who talk to hear themselves talk, so sorry I can't stand people like him. Look at his posts. He attacks every response.
I do think it's a combination of both the things you mentioned - a shadow of the SGS 2 coming up, as well as Gingerbread official release for the Infuse releasing anytime now. Even though I recently brought mine and personally love this phone, I am super curios to see SGS 2 in every day use. That massive home button format that Samsung has implemented, and done away with the search button which I've barely used 2wice ever, is sure to make it a better experience.
But I do think it's a bit premature to say that Development is dead for the Infuse. The 3 main ROM's are still being tweaked and fine tuned, voodoo sound and lag fix has been implemented, and some sort of stop-gap functional hulu is also working for some who've tried. All this for a phone that's barely a Month and a half old. Not bad I'd say.

Yeah, I guess I'm just comparing the experience to my last phone, the HTC Inspire 4G, which was a massive developer project right at release. I remember having 10 roms to chose from, half being gingerbread, a week after release, hehe.

whoa whoa.. cool your jets turbo! nobody attacked you. and where do you get off saying i attack every response? all i've done was defend myself in this thread. and i think i speak for most people who grow tired of seeing the same questions asked in multiple threads.. this is old news. your question has been asked many times already. my initial response was not meant to be offensive, but had you taken my advice you would've found your answer.
not to many simple features that we dont have already, other features may take a lot more development. you can make requests if you can think of some. i have been able to run the same rom for weeks without the obsessive need to flash the next new thing. i havent had that since andromeda on the captivate and that ended with the release of 2.3.3 i9000 based roms.
if we could get a kernel like glitterballs had on the captivate that used gpu hardware acceleration on the home screen and in all apps that would be cool but he never posted sources and it seemed to have issues with errors on ext4 but worked great if converted to jfs. i had my phone underclocked with that kernel and the battery lasted for days!. it also had unmatched boot up times.

I'm sure Bradbusa only said that because, from posts, devs are holding off because it would be pointless to develop these roms at this point. Devs have said in a few threads that they'd hate to work on too much, just for them to have to re-do everything for gingerbread.
Bradbusa could have offered a bit more, but I can say my first thought was to type what he said when I first saw the thread. Glad he stepped in that landmine and I didn't.

They're just waiting on the official GB release to hit so they can smack it up, flip it, rub it downnnnn oh noooooooo...
Patience young grasshopper.
Maybe I'm just too new to Android - but the Infused ROM is a fine piece of work that leaves you wondering, where to next? Others are probably right in that Gingerbread is the next step - a step much easier if we just wait for a leak or the Rogers phone.
I'm just hoping our devs stick around that long It seems like Android users upgrade phones pretty quickly...
Our devs will stick around. Everyone just needs to stop asking for ETA's and posting threads just like this one. Learn to chill out and wait OR learn to code and help the development process.
Have a happy 4th!

(Q) jellybean roms? ?

hey guys do you know where I can find some jellybean roms? I checked dev forum and all I can find is gb and ics roms why is the development going so slow here?? can you please give me link to other forums that have it already?
I've had ics for too long now and it's getting pretty boring and I heard there's supposed to be way better features in jellybean like wifi charging and hologram projection capabilities and stuff so I'm kind of tired of the delay and just being stuck with this crappy old technology in ics. I heard they already got it out for the vivid with cm10 too so it's pretty lame that we don't even have it yet even though our phones were released at the same time.
I don't get why Android has to be do fragmented I think it's going downhill as an os. Thinking about just giving up and getting an iPhone so I can actually get updates without waiting forever...
anyway someone should post link asap so I don't have to keep refreshing dev forum all day! I will even be sure to hit thanks button if you post it fast enough so hurry
