We do have a 2.2 OS upgrade for the Milestone in testing. If it gets approval we will announce it within the next two weeks.

This would be awesome! T-minus two weeks... That does seem too specific to allow weaseling.
Edit: I take that back. T-minus sometime this week?!?
I assume the only Milestone Cincinnati bell carries is the XT720 so it could only mean that when it says Milestone?
Official 2.2. would be nice. Though I'd love to see them add 2.3 by now since I do have 2.2 an official version would be good to fix some issues I assume (and it would be cool if they changed stuff like they did for the Droid X gingerbread update - status bar +UI improvements etc...).
Though hypothetically, if this did happen would the update only be for Cincinnati Bell users and the rest of us would have to get the benefits over here on XDA only?
Yes the XT720 is the only Milestone in CBs lineup. The Motorola update page still lists the US XT720 as staying on 2.1 so I guess we'll just to wait & see.
I really do hope its some sort of official build. I still have the xt as my backup phone, but the mytouch is my daily driver. Hope for the best guys!
aaaah, just unlock the ****in bootloader or give us 2.3
who needs 2.2 for now, dexter and the other developers (khalpowers, mioze7oe and so on) did GREAT work

It would be nice to get a kernel version bump like the Milestone did. And a more froyo-friendly partition layout would be nice too. We'll see.
I will be going to the Cincinnati Bell store tomorrow after work to yell at them for messing up my bill...again.
I will be sure to inquire about this when I go.

Well, if a CB 2.2 was leaked, and could be successfully read... I think, but am definitely not sure, that we could use recovery to flash boot.img/system.img?
Anybody care to correct me on this?
Check with Dexter or Khalpower. may be CincyBell bought their ROM and testing for upgrade. lol

We'll have to see. It depends on whether the partition sizes changed. Motorola likes to include the partition tables in the kernel so that would require flashing sbf to use a new boot.img. If they use the same kernel version, we can probably make an update.zip to deal with changes in system.img changed size. We'll have to see what if anything we get.
Well, I talked to several people at Cincinnati Bell today...
It's not looking good. I was told that there were quite a number of people at Cincinnati Bell who were working on this project, and that a legitimate ROM was produced and tested, BUT... Motorola doesn't want them to release it. I wasn't told why, but you can guess. Motorola hates all of us and secretly wants us all dead. Kidding.
Seriously though, it sounded like Cincinnati Bell DOES have a working froyo ROM. If only someone had a way of getting their hands on it....
I'll keep trying.
Sounds like we need to invite one of their field testers to a bar, gizmodo style.

Sightings of Cincinnati Bell XT720 running 2.2 in employee hands predate the Motoroi 2.2 release. Also, I discussed froyo at length and its development progress at Cincinnati Bell when I purchased my XT720 early last September.
If you want to get even more speculative, http://smartphonebenchmarks.com/ reports performance results for XT720 running 2.3 (not sure if this is easy to fake, though). Where are these ROMs!?!
2.3 ??
I only find results for our XT720 with Dexter's 2.2 on the page you posted.
but I don't comprehend why Motorola doesn't even want to unlock our bootloaders.. I mean that shouldn't be that much work for them and so the customers could do the things on their own and Motorola can continue ignoring us and not giving us any updates???

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..

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 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?

Once that happens it won't matter because we'll be able to port any existing ROMs and CyanogenMod will follow soon after.

Pretty ridiculous. They'd update the Acclaim and the Desire in the coming week/weeks...and leave the Mesmerize for March... I'm skipping any OTA's from USCC at this point. I'd rather wait for xda community than USCC.

It's easy to hate USCC but you have to remember thay they've, untill recently with their new belief project, really been primarily a business company. It didn't matter to them that they had older phones or whatever as long as they could make sure that the services they were providing were reliable on a business level. Still annoying though d= but I think they're getting better.. at least we're getting the update..
am I the only one not really bothered by the release date? I got the PnP running with voodoo and it's working pretty well for me. I cant imagine it could get that much faster. 2.2 is supposed to be pretty fast but I'm not at all disappointed with the performance right now.

if samsung follows course with what they did for the epic we should see the source drop today or tomorrow hopefully. (source for the epic was release 2-3 days before the official push started)
I shall remain skeptical until tomorrow comes and I have froyo, we've seen this song and dance before.
This didn't just come from Samsung's Galaxy S support feed. This was posted on AT&T's Facebook page. Other sites are starting to report on it. Rumor has that it might be the leaked KB1 update that came out earlier today.

Well we still need the kernel source to post on the samsung site. Hopefully that will post sometime tomorrow but we can't make any native roms until that happens.
Figures, the day I finally decide to root, AT&T decides to release FROYO the next day. lol with that said, if I do root today, will I have to re-root tomorrow when I upgrade?
I thought I'd get it early by flashing cognition 4, as I've used cognition 3.04 and firefly and have been impressed by the wonderful features.
If you're wondering-- Don't bother doing this yourself. I've flashed cog4, and have found it lacking almost all the features that made cog3.04 cool, like having choices for unlock screens, tethering and wap come with warnings that these are pay services for AT&T, and touchwiz is the default launcher.
I'm going back to cog3.04, a far superior rom, later this afternoon.
Nice, 7 months late...
As for Cog 4 or KB1 roms, I'm going to wait until they are on par with current roms in terms of features.
Same thing I plan to do. I'm gonna put this stock Froyo on tomorrow, and once the devs have time to play with the official source and get things good and stable with some tweaks that I find useful, I will flash a custom ROM later on.
I can't imagine this could be better than what I've been experiencing since flashing Andromeda 1.2. Thanks, but no thanks.

I saw this on my facebook and was like, "Squee!" But I'm already using 2.2.1 on the andromeda final rom, and it's so awesome. Somehow I doubt anything AT&T is willing to dish out is going to make a better rom than that. :X

2.3.4 patches rageagainstthecage, right?
Assuming if/when the Cap gets its promised (but vague North America Galaxy S) Gingerbread update, does that mean rooting becomes that much more difficult?

Is there a project for an android rom 2.3 with baseband Europe or USA? I like the work being done, but an android rom 2.3 would make a big difference for this phone.
One suggestion would be to make a port of the Milestone 2.3 rom. Or use a Cyanogem 2.3.5. If developers need help testing or other things, I am available.
But I want to make this suggestion which I think is helpful.

hey bud, welcome to our forum as I suppose you are new. We are very fortunate with the ROM's we have presented to you as it has been a long tough road for the few Dev's we are so fortunate to have here. Considering Moto did not offer us an upgrade to 2.2 and the locked bootloader it has been a tough road to 2.2, as most other good phones with less or same as or better Hardware all got the 2.2 upgrades, therefore it was easier for the Dev's of those phones to proceed forward to a 2.3 ROM. We are very proud of the progress our dev's have made to help bring us 2.2 we are just now getting close to perfection. So you may have come at a good time, your struggle to get to 2.2 is already bypassed and there are a few Dev's currently working on ways to bring us 2.3. If you take the time to look around the threads you can see their progress. As for me, I am very grateful for our 2.2's since Moto never intended for us to have it! lol.

So you may have come at a good time, your struggle to get to 2.2 is already bypassed and there are a few Dev's currently working on ways to bring us 2.3. If you take the time to look around the threads you can see their progress. As for me, I am very grateful for our 2.2's since Moto never intended for us to have it! lol.

Definitely agreed I remember the time when I saw this forum asking Dexter to help make 2.2 ROM and since then, the devs here have managed to make many wonderful and stable 2.2 ROMs. As for me, I'm not too concerned with gingerbread cos I perfectly happy with the 2.2 ROMs!!

I believe Mioze7Ae is working on CM7, along with his other projects
Since Google has purchased Moto, I hope it gets better. But I'm so glad to be part of XDA member. I got my 2.2 from XDA. Big thanks to those who work on upgrading our XT720!

Yep, I'm quite happy with my khal_power's 2.2 as well. It's very stable and way better than original ROM.
