Hey forum,
Well its official...i work for at&t and woke up to an email in my outlook that samsung is waiting for the final approval before the end of the month!! It seems the release date has been changing weekly. I originally had asked the head honcho samsung telecommunications rep (whose name I will leave un said) on saturday and didn't expect such a quick response.
Well there you have it forum its on the way!! and the 2.3 rumor is false.
As I'm not suppose to leak this proprietary information....i can't help myself

After all, Samsung has always said "By the end of the year" so your email doesn't tell us anything new.

No problem guys...I'm just excited hearing it from the source and not a rumor.....they usually fill us in right before so we are aware...none the less atleast it will be an official and not a buggy leak for devs to work with.....and the bloatware? Just remove it

Thats why I'm waiting for it
I would love to know which "buggy" froyo leaks people on the forums are talking about. The worst 2.2 beta that I have put on my phone is 1000 times better than the "final" builds that Samsung has put out. JH7 in particular is pure garbage (maybe not with bugs but it's features are neutered).
Bottom line, if anyone is still waiting for Froyo you deserve to wait as long as it takes them to crap out your bloated AT&T neutered froyo. I'll eat my keyboard if they put usb tether back in and don't cripple wifi tether so you have to pay for it.

I, along with most people, are excited for the official release because that means source code follows shortly after. When the source code is released it means all sorts of stable roms, and tweaks to existing roms.
I really don't see why you and other people get so heated over other people wanting this released. I imagine by your attitude that you're running a custom rom. If that is the case there is no doubt you have flashed multiple beta releases of multiple roms and have had some issues along the way.

It's really not that I have a particular disdain for the official release but honestly I'm just an end user I don't have a huge problem with a memory leak if the browser is fast and I don't care about quadrant benchmarks etc. I don't really know what those things are or what they measure. What I do care about is removed features and willful crippling of the OS. The source code just means the rom devs will need to put out a few crappy buggy versions of their roms while they try to figure out how to "fix" all the crap samsung and AT&T broke. I saw it with JH7 I don't think froyo will be any different.

Update: this is for our device! They removed the 4G.
HSPA enabled I guess
They might enable HSPA.
Pantech and LG didn't get 4G moniker so copy-paste mistake is out.
Looks like they have changed the press release - Captivate no longer has 4G listed against it.
Also - I don't see anything that calls out which revision of Gingerbread will come, last weekend's leak on samfirmware for the Epic was for 2.3.4, so perhaps Samsung has advanced the ball since KF1.
So really, this means we will see GB drop in 1Q 2012, right?

Post-paid means they send a bill to you at the end of the month. It's normal phone service. They use the term Post-Paid to differentiate from Pre-Paid customers.

After trying both AT&T and Rogers' Froyo versions for Captivate, and being disappointed; I would say look towards CyanogenMod 7.1 for an update to this phone rather than any official Gingerbread.
You don't get it, once the official version drops (this means having sources) then the devs here can do their magic.

After two rather under-performing stock Captivate 2.2 ROMs, I'm not sure I'll be going back to the stock updates without a compelling reason. The performance of CyanogenMod has convinced my to stick with it.
So far after testing almost every feature on the phone I can, it seems that CM has everything the stock ROM did and the GPS works, a first for my phone. I really do hope that Samsung has made some really good progress on this version though.

yea, since it says 2.3.4 im not sure how true the article is. also i cant really find any announcement from at&t about it
No credible sources anywhere in the article.
AT&T's last press release stated that they would roll out Gingerbread updates to all Android devices released in 2011, plus to the Captivate, "starting in" July. Which means that only one device needed to receive an update in July for the press release to be true. (I Think that was the Atrix?)
And as others said, all of the leaks have been 2.3.5.
I am sure god knows when it will be coming since even AT&T does not know what the hell they are doing sitting on it till now

My take on it is they are in the process of releasing it but are working to correct some of the glaring issues we see now using the Rodgers rom. I don't think they want to release something that is just going to Bork up everyone's phones so they will wait until it is right as well they should. I would rather wait till it is perfect then to have them release something that isn't ready for primetime. Then the devs will have a good canvas to work from. Your mileage may vary.

I just heard that the other Nexus S phones (except Nexus S 4G) already got the updates, anybody know when the i9020a will get the update? Thanks you!

Google said it will be a month before all Nexus S devices have the update so at this point all we can do is wait.
If you're feeling brave though, there are a few guides floating around saying how you can flash the i9020T (TMO) ICS OTA update on your i9020a and then flash the ATT radio back.
Thanks, but I'll just wait. I already have bad experience with getting into my phone

This is what you walk into with open source software, with the nexus line of phones, you get updates first not right away.
Its the cost of having an open platform. Its unfortunate, I like being on the cutting edge but its all about preferences. I like flashing, tinkering and messing up. This platform allows it, the other popular platform is more streamlined and closed. You get updates for all the phones once but in my opinion its lacking the tinkering factor. Also, once you go samoled, you never go back.

You should have no issue with unlocking n rooting a nexus..
- Only setback would have to be, the device not being found w/ your pc. aka manually installing the samsung driver properly.
I just redid my sdk after a fresh winOS. n i always spend the most time on just this part...
Rooting the NexusLineup is are one of the simplest bootloaders to unlock.
If i'm not mistaken the whole nexus line up was built for the developing purpose n experience;...
N to answer your ICS-OTA Release for the crespo4g no matter what people tell you.
google had a setback w/ the ns4g n only this device. Cause of 'wiimax' connection issues.
I personally think google is looking for outside help rather then trying to figure it out.
But until you see the official tweet from the official nexus/google/android twitter accounts, or your unrooted device receives the ota. Then no ics rom will properly work to its full ability for our 4Gmachines!
To set record straight there was the orginal rollout for the NS4G.
People reported the issues.
Thats why they didnt continue.
This is why i only stick w/ apple.

I'm floating in the same boat brooo
So I had a chat with someone from Samsung, Tried to gather up all the problems everyone is having with unresponsiveness and the overall firmware being laggy. This Asshole pushes me forward into just telling me that theres issues with my phone.
Chat Information Please wait for a Samsung Agent to respond.
Chat Information You are now chatting with 'Phillips'. There will be a brief survey at the end of our chat to share feedback on my performance today.
Chat Information Your Issue ID for this chat is LTK5640680671X
Phillips: Hi, thank you for contacting Samsung Technical Support. How may I help you today?
Visitor: hello
Phillips: Hello, please go ahead with your inquiry.
Visitor: I was able to obtain the Gingerbread update for my Samsung Infuse 4G and Updated the firmware February 1st when it first came out and I'm noticing things like my touchscreen being unresponsive and the overall software being laggy. I heard they pulled the Update for fixing, but those of us who already updated will there be a fix for those who already updated?
Phillips: I am sorry to know that, I will be more than glad to assist you.
Phillips: I understand that you are experiencing issues with the Infuse phone after you have updated the phone software to Gingerbread. Is that correct?
Visitor: After doing the Update on February 1st I proceeded on deleting all cache and data and doing the Factory Reset thinking it would help perform better after the update, this is my 2nd week running the software and I'm just overall unhappy with it.
Phillips: I apologize for the inconvenience.
Phillips: Thank you for confirming.
Phillips: Just to know, did the issue start after installing any specific application on the phone?
Visitor: Nope! I noticed it right after the update with no apps installed on the phone, If the phone is lying flat on a surface it normally won't swipe when I run my finger across the screen, it just don't respond to my touch. it works a little better when the phone is held in a upright posistion.
Phillips: Okay.
Phillips: I see that you have tried with all possible troubleshooting steps and even restored the phone to factory settings to fix the issue with phone performance.
Visitor: Yes! Even done battery pulls.
Phillips: I suspect issue with phone itself and it requires a physical diagnosis to fix the issue with phone.
Visitor: I just got this phone 2 weeks ago, Brand new Refurb.
Phillips: As you are saying the phone is new, I suggest you contact place of purchase for assistance.
Phillips: However, you can contact our voice team for further assistance.
Phillips: You can contact our voice support at 1-888-987-4357, Mon-Fri: 7 AM - 9 PM (CST), Sat: 9 AM - 6 PM (CST).
Visitor: I just wanna know if those who already updated with the bad Update, will they receieve a Patch fix to fix the buggy problems with the OS firmware.
Phillips: As you have tried with possible troubleshooting steps, I have provided you with the contact details to reach our voice team for sending in the phone for service.
Phillips: No, many of our customers are using the phone without any issues even after updating the phone software to Gingerbread.
Phillips: Please do not worry, I suspect issue with the phone itself. Once you contact our voice team they will be glad to assist you further with the issue.
Bottom Line is.........The only issue there fixing with it is those who couldn't update it in the first place which was something contained in the Official Update that blocked Kies Mini from Updating your phone. What we have is what we have folks, a piece of **** bugged firmware. Case Closed!
Final Words: Phillips: No, many of our customers are using the phone without any issues even after updating the phone software to Gingerbread.
dang,from now on i will be buying unbloated,unlocked international phones.glad i didnt update!! but i guess you can still get back to froyo? after the gingerdeath downgrade..
all this is supposedly what is holding up source code release too. already harrased the osrc till I got a human responce and they claim the holdup has to do with putting tthe update on hold. this is horse **** being that the sorces are supposed to be released simultaneously. the Rogers release was actually before the phone hit the shelves in Canada.
well as I've said many time...my Infuse 4g runs excellent on Stock GB.
I use an alternative launcher so maybe that's it.
I agree... the update was ****, worse gb update of all the galaxy phones... Samsung coulda kept that one to theirselves.... the leak was better with some tweaking

Very well agreed, as far as your Zeus rom their is really nothing more that can be done to improve the performance, It's a done deal.

It's like the people from chat are replying to this too. Haha.
I wonder if we can figure out why the UCKL2 update causes problems on some Infuse phones but not others. I installed UCKL2 (via Odin, after the official download was pulled) and it's been working great. No screen-responsiveness problems, whether the phone is upright or horizontal. (And I've finally got Skype videochat using the front camera.)
Have you tried the *#0*# test of the touchscreen? Does it pass?

There are some good roms by good devs for the infuse. We are lucky we have that. I would be extremely pissed if i had just bought the phone and left it completely stock because of Samsungs ****ty software for it. They could of done a lot more with this phone than what they have.

They chose not to and your absolutely right. They knew gingerbread was over past due for the Infuse, they spent less time figuring ways for us to run ICS, but wasted a lot of time updating us to old firmware that they already knew was buggy as hell and there's a ****load of extras gone and vanished. No root option, and etc. They totally ****ed the phone up. It's being sold for so cheap due to its ****ty features and no rooting options. Samsung you Fail! What you gonna do next cripple the firmware on the Skyrocket so ppl can't root?

Which is why I'll never have a non-Google Android phone. I've put my Infuse away... for good I think. I'll stick with my Nexus S now. Stock GB and AOSP ICS is faster and smoother than any ROM on my Infuse.
Just to let people know its not an isolated problem let me say I too have had response and lag issues since the update.
