Well..I learned a long time ago never to rush things..and getting a new update is factored in with that. I'll wait and see what changes (good or bad) AT&T has added to this before I flash it..If they can make it so our phones are completely locked I am sure they will try..I might root mine before hand and then back up what I have already..and then just play the wait and see game..

Meh I already have it....and I will wait for a developer to mod the "official" release. no way will I load A Samsung/ATT release...They could disable a lot things that keep the device flash able.

You already have the official Froyo release? And you're an AT&T subscriber?

+1 to that, screw the bloat-ware updates that will just mess more things up than were fixed. Been running dev roms since day 2 on this phone and I won't ever go back to service provider/manufacturer provided crap again. And Froyo does kick *ss on Eclair.

"official" I get. Since "official" has already been cooked a ton of times, why even mention it in a thread about an official release? And why mention "Meh I already have it"? Guess all those writing classes I took were wasted. I need to not be so darned literal when I read something around here...

^This!!!
I think everyone who has read this understands what he was saying. as in i have 2.2 right now so he can wait till someone mods the official release when its released, not that difficult.
true, i just rooted and working on uploadingthe froyo rom let's see how that goes!
Like I said too..I'll wait and see if anything is disabled or locked down..If it isn't..then I'll load it and run it and benchmark it and wait patiently till this is done for 2.2 and our Captivate..http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=821397..Nothing wrong IMHO with the way mines running right now..and giving it a week or so to see if there are any issues crop up isn't no big deal to me..

I love rumors, to bad they don't have anything to make this rumor more believable then others.
Hopefully there is some truth to it all.

"As you probably know last Month that Samsung pulled-out the froyo Update files of the Samsung Galaxy S from its servers due to Many System Bugs that Made the Android froyo unstable and laggy."
And the picture shows this is still for the I9000.
Just release the source code all ready and let DG do his magic!
ATT releases scary!

I feel the same way. With the differences between the stock and the 2.1 rom's I've used, I can't believe ATT sent this phone out as it was.
Course, the Captivate has been nothing but problems for me since day one. (Lines in the OLED and they refused to take it back, speaker failure, laggy, etc.)
The unofficial roms have helped, (particulaly the 1.2 GHz OC'd one from September, and the EXT4 lagfix.) I'm holding out for the official 2.2's and hoping they will fix things, but I'm very concerned about what all ATT will do with them.
If it fixes my VPN issue (I can't get any 2.x version to work with our Cisco VPN's) I'll probably at least try stock 2.2.
When is the official relese for Captivate? Early 2011?

With the Captivate's problem list a mile long, this Froyo update better be a miracle-worker.
Anyone else notice the picture in that article says "November, 2011"? 2011, not 2010... lol.
Only 375 days to go until Froyo 2.2! Whoooooohooooo!
Yeah I'll stick with Cognition and not hold my breath.
Wait im confused Haha, is it this year and they accidentally put 2011 or what?

So the JB source just dropped into AOSP

Guess what? We can't do crap since we don't have kernel source.
Time to bring out the big guns and point them towards HTC.
It might be coming today. HTC has been added sources all afternoon. 41 So far.

They still adding them? I was kind of confused by the dev site (are there really only like 2 phones for USA that have sources posted or did I search incorrectly?)
Don't search its jacked. The last one I saw added was over an hour ago.
Is this AT&T's doing or HTC? whos to blame here?
Who knows. I blaming ATT because they're also blocking google wallet.... but,
1) if HTC is still working on minor patches for ATT version, they might want to wait for final for release.
2) Maybe it's just ATT being greedy and being a _____
I think #2
I'll say it again. Att isn't the only carrier with the evita. If they violate the gpl they jeopardize their entire Android line. I tend to think HTC is waiting to release source after the coming update.

that would be super.... i'll stay just a little angry for now
hope CM will release ICS4.1 quickly
So no updates on this? Guess HTC didnt release SC for our phone afterall..
How many carriers worldwide have the evita? It is pretty disappointing we don't have kernel source yet
I've never had to be this patient with any Android device I've owned but that's maybe because this is my first AT&T phone. The only thing that keeps me on this phone is imagining the amount of ROM's that will flood the development section once the source is released! We could technically port every ROM here. The true potential will be unlocked! And battery life will improve because of profiles.. I guess I'll keep dreaming.

Just out of curiosity have you talked to Vin from the CM9 thread? He was working on integrating jelly bean into the CM9 build a couple hours ago.

Google play edition Roms should be out a week or two after the nexus 5 and 7.
It will be interesting to see how it functions with 4.4.4. Bootloaders. Modems and kernels.
Once the official TW 5.0 comes out it will be much more stable. My guess from past experience is it won't be released till at least February or March of next year.

From developers? We already have Nexus 5 ROMs, so I don't think it will take more than a few weeks to rig it to where it will work on an s4.
5.0 official release? I'd say 6 months at least, if at all. We haven't even heard about 4.4.4 yet even.
Thats a bummer man but at least theres a timeframe thanks.
You can count on them being super buggy when they first come out. ie. Gallery issues, sd issues, camera. Going to take some patience.
A Few months ago, OPO and Cyanogen, said 90 days after the official Lollipop release from Google, the OnePlus One OS would get the big Lollipop date. So that puts it end of Jan / early Feb. But is that still on track of happening ?
But...with the all the news lately of Cyanogen and OPO not getting along, and the whole India deal, etc...
What will OPO official release as far as the Lollipop update ? Will there still be a CM12S made specific for the OnePlus by Cyanogen ? Or will OPO just release their in house Lollipop ROM they made themselves without CM ?
The last I read, there is a big update coming in January, which would presumably be CM12S Lollipop. OnePlus also has announced that they are on the verge of releasing their own, house built ROM, so it's possible that is also coming in that time frame.

There's not much point in asking that here, nobody here can answer the question properly. Plus, even if CM were reading here, they don't respond to requests for ETA's.

Not really asking for an ETA. I know they both said 90 days after Lollipop code release.
But my question is more about if it will even come at all now ? Due to the rocky relationship between OPO + Cyanogen.

Yeah but unfortunately the answer remains the same; nobody here knows, we can only speculate. The only people who know are CM, and they won't comment on it. There's the "big" update coming in January but I'm not putting any money on it being 5.0, they haven't even hinted to that.
As with everything when it comes to ROMs/Kernels/OTAs... no one knows and employees don't release release dates because then they'll feel pressured that they'll NEED to have it done.
Would you rather have a rushed release with bugs causing your phone not to work properly? Especially if its a person who does not involve themselves with rooting/flashing?
Or would you rather have a release where it works and is tested thoroughly.
If you can't wait, try a Lollipop ROM. If you want to stay as close to stock as possible, flash CM12.
I am not asking for a specific CM12S release date.
This thread is more about asking if there will even be a CM12S released period, ever ? With all the recent bad press between OPO and Cyanogen. I am worried there might not ever be an official OnePlus One CM12S OS release at all now in a couple months ?

That is specific to the market of India. I'm sure that oneplus and cyanogen have a contract that they need to abide by otherwise therell be lawsuits.
I wouldn't worry about it, I'm sure there will be a cm12s. When? Don't know.
If you can't wait, flash cm12 unofficial. Now if we talk about the oneplus two (or whatever they plan on calling it, I wouldn't be surprised if they did abandon CyanogenMod in favor of their own rom.)

For the OnePlus One, you're darn right there will be lawsuits if we don't keep getting CM branded official updates. That was what the phone was marketed as, printed with Cyanogen branding, and I as a customer bought it for. If they abandon CM branded official upgrades, I'd be forced to kick off or join a class action lawsuit against both OnePlus and Cyanogen. I won't tolerate bait and switch.
maybe in february
They are suppose to deliver CM12s in Jan(this month) ..at least at the very end, it's the 90 days they promised us. Feb is too late as it won't be 90 days but more
Don't promise if you can't deliver, also I'd like a pure android experience as a second option, something as pure as it can get(it performs better on benches ..at least their alpha version from what I've seen)

I just made a pointless fact(from other people's tests) about that no need to act like that, be polite man ..you should try it next time.
I really don't care about benches, I prefer if it feels smooth-liquid, runs fast and not with 20fps at games and have 1000 points on antutu rather than having a sci-fi 80.000 points and be garbage
Just interested in
Guys can someone describe me difference shortly of CM11 and CM1s. Coz I'm on CM12 Nightly builds on my OPO atm and it's working fairly good.

There's very little difference except CM11S has the fancy lockscreen and camera. CM11 receives nightly updates whereas CM11S received periodic updates.

Yeah it confuses me why people still beg for the same product with an S attached to it as it will make things better for them. This phone is a developer type of phone for people who will try rooting and flashing. With the recent updates in CM getting closer to stable why do we care about an 11s.
Also lets be honest if we do not have all the proper working features in a nightly you cant expect to see a stable release.... At least a 12M or something has to be put out for our phones too me before we say an 12S
@Zorachus - step back and think for a second why are you asking your question. No one associated with giving you an answer will come here and give it to you. You can Google it and see whats out there and draw your own conclusion. I feel this is what others were trying to get across to you. You are asking a question that can't be answered no matter how you slice it up

Because for some people it's a matter of principle. CM stated very clearly that this device would receive official updates for two years, if the S branch is dropped they're reneging on that agreement.
Because this isn't strictly a dev phone, this is a developer-friendly phone. Not everyone wants to unlock and root their device, in fact the majority of the user base most likely don't want to. So if support is dropped then those people are left with a device that isn't receiving the updates it was promised to have, those people have a right to expect those updates.

erm, Google does that already....
each release has a versioning, date, carrier and hashes to go with them....
there are maybe a handful of releases that don't have a carrier directly listed... So I don't understand why anyone would compile a list....? what purpose would it serve?

I think I know what ur talking about; earlier on with 7.x.x releases there was a few unclear builds, then later the switched how a couple of carriers were grouped... but at the end of the day; old releases don't matter and current ones do... people shouldn't be running older images...
the current ones are labelled clearly and all one has to do is download the correct image for their carrier...
that's my 2 cents ?

out of curiousity; are u having battery issues or something?
ya, I tried the beta / dp2 - went back to the 8.0 Nov build... plus, I couldn't run my kernel on the Dev previews, well not without effort.
