Another Sprint TP2 WM6.5 Upgrade Rumor

Take it for what it's worth... I emailed the Sprint account rep that handles our corporate account and told him I needed a release date on WM6.5 for the TP2 or I was going to send my oders to Verizon. Within 10 minutes I had responses from 3 other individuals at Sprint. The first said it was do out within the next few days. The second said it was supposed to be March 12, but that date had been pushed back. The third said it had been pushed from the 12th to the 19th. My rep promised to "stay on top of it" and let me know if that date changes. We'll see.
EDIT: I guess I can't edit my subject, but it should've said "WM6.5" oops.

lets hope you have a reliable source, cause if you dont be prepared for some big flames

So his sources all have different dates. So it seems his information is completely unreliable.

As all the other threads posted within the past week or so claiming WM65 update was coming out on March 10th, 12th, 15th, 17th, 19th lol...
I'll believe it when I see it..

Sprint's promisses...
I design and manage applications for a company that has 500 Rhodium devices with Sprint and have spoken numerous times to many folks with various levels of technical expertise about their release date and a list of features they are backing into their "offficial ROM". Every time I get a different answer and some date in the near future...the dates have come and gone like messianic profecies.
I have tested compatibility of our apps with many of the of XDA cooked ROMs and know they will work well. Unfortunately, not all end users want to use custom ROMs for fear of bricking their devices (and creating me more work! I have brought so many bricked devices back I do not even recomend it anymore! They never read properly!)
So...Do not put your faith in Sprint or any other carrier, we are numbers to them. So until our numbers increase and we go elsewhere we do not have power to dictate or demand. Thus, we wait... or break free and flash away the pain.

I guess that was my point with this thread. 3 replies from Sprint, 3 different answers. Even though one of them gave a date, the other two responses make it seem questionable. I pushed the issue a little further, telling them they're losing business because of this, but they still couldn't come up with specific answers. Now I think that the problem is not that they don't care about the customers, but that they just might be that screwed up and no one really does know what's going on.

There does seem to be some confirmation of this over at PPCGeeks.

Well PPCGeeks appears to have heard the same thing.

Of course scheduled and actual release are two very different things.

Why is this here? I mean honestly, WHY? Isn't it enough all the other sites are quoting rumors as "fact"? Do we have to do it as well?
This thread should be closed.

AMEN! Close this! So many rumors. Either it's going to happen or not.

I'm going camping this weekend and I'm praying for my upgrade before I lose service or I'm going to be going through "upgrade-withdrawal" all weekend.

Just got the word from my Sprint Business rep.
My business rep just confirmed! He sent me this from his internal memo.

XDA: The time is right

Dear XDA: I think the time has come for you to step out of the shadows. I was at Barnes and Noble the other day and started looking for a magazine in their sizable magazine section. I was frustrated when i went to look for a magazine about android -anything- and found zero mags. However, i did happen to find 12 magazines covering apple. Soo i searched online and to my dismay have only found one magazine that covers android and only apps. Please save all of us who love android and need something to read on the toilet. I promise you i will be the first to subscribe. There is a desert wasteland when it comes to android magazines and you could be our oasis. Seems like now could be the opportune time.
(sorry for the dramatics...just thought it would be fun to post my thoughts about this...)

A magazine on Android ? hmmm...

It's a good idea. There's inough content out there right now to fill a year's worth of monthly editions. I'd subscribe (as long as it wasn't priced unreasonably), and it could open way more people to Android rooting/flashing/modding...

+1 thats whats missing actually. go for it XDA. u properly backed up anyway, so ...

Definitely a good idea. The democracy has always overthrowed the dictatorship. That's just the way the world goes.

If nothing else, and I hate to say it, think of the revenues.

Sounds cool. But sounds dangerous for xda also. Just thinking that people who aren't supposed to root or mod their phones might pick up a magazine andtry, then fail, maybe even brick their phones, and then they try sue xda. All i'm trying to say is I think it's best for people who don't have the mindset for modding or whatnot, to not be introduced to it or even tempted.

A Warning on any article helps, they cannot get sued just because someone brick their phone, it wont be XDA fault.

Yeah but some narrow-minded twit is bound to try and go after xda at some point anyways, if it hasn't happened already. And there's always an opportunistic lawyer to accomodate (apologies to any members who happen to be lawyers lol). That's why there are disclaimers at the top of almost every thread. At least magazine revenue would help pay the legal defense fees.
This site has gotten so big since Android got hot, there's a constant influx of people who just bought their first smartphone and already know they want it rooted with CM7 and A2SD, but have no idea how to make it happen. If properly implemented, the mag could be a roadmap to get them started, and teach them some forum etiquitte (search, read, search, read, find correct forum to ask in) before they end up neck deep in technical terms they've never heard before, and a device that no longer boots. Beats following some half-ass youtube video with a megaupload link and then having a first post on xda titled 'help i bricked my...'

A warning/disclaimer won't be a magical 'no lawsuit' pass for anyone. If enough people face issues and ends up bricking their devices, the magazine will get sued. Whether the lawsuit succeeds or not is up in the air, but I doubt it's 100% guaranteed to fail and, more likely than not, retailers selling the magazine will then ask themselves if they should continue stocking it or not.
And, of course, we're just talking about lawsuits from regular folks. Imagine if Google (or any number of other corporations involved in profiting from Android) gets a hold of the news that there's a magazine out there advising the general population on hacking the OS. Somehow, I think this is going to be another one of those times when 'Do No Evil' no longer applies.
If XDA decides to gets its own magazine, it should do what others have done: Give advice to look up how to do it, but do not offer any direct advice. If the people reading the magazine decides to continue doing it, then they only have whatever advice source they looked up to blame if something screws up. Of course, this still doesn't give the 'No Lawsuits' pass, but it'll probably be a much stronger case for the magazine.
All of this could just be my pessimism speaking, so no one has to feel that what I said will be unalterable reality. Still, it seems like an awful lot of risk for an attempt to get into a market that is supposedly not doing so well. I mean, there's nothing wrong with being online-exclusive. I doubt Engadget, with its 5+ million visitors, is complaining.

True true. The xda portal is pretty much like engadget itself. And engadget gets some of its news from xda also. Guess the problem is, the amount of people that are interested in hacking and modding, which is a relatively small amount. And well, as said before, we don't want to be inviting people who aren't supposed to be hacking or modding, else we get more threads saying how they bricked their phones. So maybe it's best to just stay as it is now.

^ Yes, you are right about that, but perhaps it's not as matter of exposure.
Look at the iPhone. Jailbreaking is much more widespread than Android rooting, but last I heard, it was still only about 2-4% of the entire iPhone userbase that was doing it. As others mentioned, there are several iPhone/Apple magazines too.
I think hacking has always been the domain of a small number of folks who probably knows the method to find out how to do such things by themselves anyway. The overwhelming majority probably doesn't want to hack and additional exposure by magazines to them might increase the hacking community by a small amount, but probably not any very significantly.
Rooting/jailbreaking/custom ROMS/etc will probably continue to be the domain of folks like those who frequent XDA and it's unlikely that it'll ever be as popular as, say, downloading MP3s until it becomes a super easy/risk-free task that has an undeniable benefit to the common man.
But frankly, I don't see a need to make it as common as downloading MP3s anyway. XDA is freely available to anyone who wants to know and, for those who don't want to know, let them continue using a stock Samsung Nexus S.

Yes... xda is the way forward! It is improving alot!!!!!!!!!
Now we have xda tv, i cant wait to see whats next!
Also @OP, why don't you take your phone to the toilet LOL You will have your all in one phone/magazine/browser

Galaxy S II for AT&T leaks through Samsung's Facebook photos

Galaxy S II for AT&T leaks through Samsung's Facebook photos

Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy S II for the AT&T network made a surprise appearance yesterday. To be dubbed the Samsung Attain, it was spotted in Samsung Singapore’s Facebook photos which were showing off the new dock for the device.

As you can see from the picture, the AT&T logo is prominently placed on the front. The keys below the display look different compared to the standard Galaxy S II. Instead of a mechanical Home button you now get a capacitive one and there is a dedicated search button as well.
While initially the device did seem like the Infuse 4G to us but then when we saw the side profile we noticed that the camera on this phone was jutting out of the case far more than the one on the Infuse 4G. In fact the camera on the Infuse 4G is completely flush with the body, unlike the one on the Galaxy S II. So the one you see above is undoubtedly the AT&T Attain.
For now, however, we have no information available on the launch date of the device but we will keep an eye out for that.

Looks nice but still prefer the EU version with a home button.

That looks pretty sweet, but i agree; I like the Korean/EU version better with the three button look.

Saw this a while back. Depending on whether I have the money laying around I'll upgrade to that next.

how in the world are you a senior member and not even see the dry humor in what just transpired there. let me guess, your more of a analytical guy and not a design/imaginative guy. you didn't even fully read my comment, or else you would have seen the different spellings. i sure hope you don't help people with their questions with that selective reading disorder of yours

My bad, if you were joking I completely missed it. Just a lot of people on the forums will come through here browsing, see something like that and take what they see here as gospel. I'm not in any position to speak for AT&T, I've just seen development take place on several of their phones (particularly the atrix now that the bootloader is unlocked). I didn't see it clarified in this thread so I thought I would.
Your post came across a bit uninformed/jumbled, if you were messing around then that's one thing, just maybe clarify in the future for the sake of any newer members that will probably take what they see at face value. Sorry for the misunderstanding.

its cool, i was just kidding anyways. i was basically making it somewhat more obvious what the previous poster (•.•) was saying to pukemon.(the guy who was trying to ghettofy AT&T). He wasn't being serious, at least i hope not...
I just was correcting the confusion without calling him out, and adding on a little humor at the same time. But since we are ending all the fun, just to restate...
YES! AT&T can be rooted!
P.S.~~technically AT&T(a company) cant even be rooted, its their phones that can

looks great
i think S2 is coming out in sep2011

this is an amazing phone, can't wait for official us launch!

Can someone spot any differences between that phone and HTC Inspire?

Wait the att version isnt going to have the home button?? wtf man

I know, tell me about it. I thought it was about damn time we get a good android phone that isn't fitted with the norm. But word on the grape vine is that AT&T is holding out till september or so, and they are going to slap a dual 1.4 ghz cpu in it I have a tilt 2, and have been waiting to upgrade to this beast for 4 months already, and the thought of having to wait another 2-3 months seems almost unbearable. It's almost making me give in and get the thrill 4g... almost anyways

I also have brought this to the attention of two editors (Myriam, Terrence) on Engadget directly via comments and podcasts chats on thier site. I also 'tipped' Engadget about it as well. Hopefully they will run a story on it.

Seriously, i had this problem with my Atrix and my Droid 3. It's actually stupid. I cannot believe At&t would cripple their own device. and what's worse, is that they are not fixing their mistakes. how does this affect them in any way? it doesn't! its absolutely a stupid move on their part. i hope that they understand that they are shooing away customers.

LG Never Again!!.... wait...

I'm sure most people here have used that phrase before at least once in a comment or talking to someone. It's the feeling of us g2x owners that bought the device with high expectations because it was arguably the best Android phone at the time, and because it has a "with Google" branding on the back. But the lack of support from LG left us with a bad feeling towards the company that is hard to look past it.
But, all of the sudden, a bright spot appeared this week when LG released the source of ICS for the SCU660 and ICS and JellyBean are possible once again. On top of that, today Google announced what's arguably the best smartphone right now (not only android), the Nexus 4, and this time with the nexus brand it will not get left behind in the software department.
So, it looks like I'm willing to give LG another chance with this new device despite the history with the g2x. And when the new roms (g2x) start appearing in the development section, I'll sure be flashing them.
What do you think about LG, are you giving them a chance too?

I'm sure most people here have used that phrase before at least once in a comment or talking to someone. It's the feeling of us g2x owners that bought the device with high expectations because it was arguably the best Android phone at the time, and because it has a "with Google" branding on the back.

Do you understand what the word never means homie? If you were a battered wife, and your husband was like Hey, I'll treat you betta baby. Are you gonna be that idiot who sticks with 'em cuz you got a baby on the way?
No. You distance yourself as much as possible and try to raise the kid right. Away from bad influences, like LG. LG gon' beat yo kids, homie.

Except that in real life a lot if women stay with their abusive partners...
In my case, I've had a good track record with LG (two dumb phones followed by two smartphones), then the G2x. My next phone was going to be the Galaxy Nexus, but that's been replaced by the Nexus 4 and for the same price so looks like LG has me for my sixth phone in a row. After my contract is up in July, though, I'm still considering Windows Phone 8 or I'll just use the Nexus on a prepaid T-Mobile plan.

Whatever.. I just wanted to communicate with you guys here. Now I know it's just a waste of time. I'm glad I'm getting the Nexus and I won't need to be here as much.

With that attitude ...we will too.
All set aside, you could've communicated in one of the MANY "i hate LG " threads. There seems to be an abundance these days, but that's one thing users tend to hate around here, multiple threads on the same topic or content.
Now that being said, the other guys were just giving you a hard time. So wasn't i, my pic was more for their humor,not to directly insult you.
So you can get a huffy over a couple post giving you a hard time for something thats clearly stated in the rules and run away, or kick back,shoot the ****, laugh a lil, and you may just find there is some cool stuff and a lil life left in our G2x.

Instead of making this into a flame the OP thread, maybe you should stop and read it. At first glance it did look it was one of those, then I actually read and noticed that, if anything, it was about the next nexus phone and whether or not, despite the 'LG never again' bit some throw around, people from this forum will take an interest and perhaps buy it.

I hear ya. Definitely seen friendlier devices sections of this forum. I think it's just people are so unhappy with going a year and no ICS source that they take it out on others.

And both have been and are disscussed in other threads. Which, is what the center of of the negativity.

People in our forum may have gone just a bit over the top with all the excitement of a future for our G2X's... They don't read threads carefully anymore and just want to go all out on people. I don't see anything wrong with this thread.. He's just giving us his opinion on LG.

Agree completely, some people are just bitter. If you don't like lg sell your phone and get something else. Don't worry about someone else that has changed their opinion. I don't like how the g2x turned out and just like the op I told myself I wouldn't buy lg again, but the nexus 4 and it's specs look pretty good. I'm not going to pick it up right away, but I'm going to wait a few months and see how development goes. The nexus line has always been awesome for development and often the first to get new release of android.

I'll buy another LG once they officially release and support ICS on this phone like they should have a LOOONG time ago. Alternately if they come out and publicly acknowledged they completely, knowingly, willfully F'ed G2X buyers and offer us free Nexus 4's or other phone running ICS/JB with specs similar to or better than the G2x to make up for the lost money and many, many hours of wasted infuriating frustration.
I have a feeing the source drop and the SU660 ICS release may have been done under pressure from Google given the current LG/Nexus partnership, and while it's very welcome, it's also just about the smallest, minimal gesture that would actually still help heal the gigantic bloody insult LG has perpetrated on those who tried to support them by buying their new untested flagship phone at launch!!
T-Mobile/LG all but stole $500 from me when they sold me this deeply flawed phone. I don't forgive such theft because of a fancy new product or some dramatically late, minimal source code.
Maybe, maybe in a few years if they earn a stellar reputation of supporting their phones after purchase and keeping them updated with the latest Android I'll reconsider. But unless the Nexus partnership really changes LG's development dramatically I will not expect that to happen.

People, be nice to each other. Have some tolerance, it is better simply to not add to the fired when one or two already started going offtopic or being offensive to the OP, think about the bandwidth! :good:

Ppl, just follow the
"it's better to keep your mouth shut if you have nothing good to say" rule.

OP has misunderstood reality, thinking somehow that LG releasing ICS for su660 is then doing him a favor.
Anything we get is purely and only due to RC and CM. LG still sucks BIG TIME. T-mo also sucks unfortunately.
Nice hardware with Google support is tempting, but LG hasn't changed, so screw them.
