Gingerbread release coming soon!?

So the word on Droid Life is that gingerbread will be dropping during Q2. This came from an email sent by HTC.
My question is: is it a good idea to go ahead and root now or just wait a couple months and see what happens?

TBH is stirring up some gingerbread talk on Twitter. Some sort of release to droiders... Might have to take the dx back from the gf for some gb flashing inn a few days.

People who are rooted will likely have it on their phones before non-rooted people do.

I want gingersense.

Whats weird is yesterday early morning I looked for a update and it said it there was but then I had to take a phone , lost signal and it never came up again.

Yesterday Slayher tweeted that the next tb rom fixes all known, root exploits. I would guess that for him to say something as a matter of fact like that would indicate someone has a leak and that it's already confirmed to be true.

the devs will root it, always do. i just want a more stable radio than we just got.

Just got off the phone with tech support and he told me they are pushing out an update on the 18th. But you know how that goes! I will believe it when I see it!

The way Check Updates responds to your queries has nothing to do with an OTA coming out soon. Posting speculation on it is a waste of time, same as the twenty other times I have seen a thread on this. Wait for someone with a proven track record of reliability to post that one is coming.

Man so do you guys think there is any way GB could come on the 18th?

[Q] Has Gtg stopped his work?

Just asking... please don't flame
Loved Gtg's work but noticed he has taken down all his ROMs because of some Network Issues in his latest ROM. He said a couple of days but it's been 6 days now I guess.
As such there is hardly anyone working on Infuse... and that is so sad . Now even if Gtg stops working on it, I might as well get rid of this phone!!
So anyone knows if Gtg is coming back? Or is the Infuse is dead even before it properly took off here

He hasn't left, to my knowledge. He's working on a couple of things right now. He'll be back in full force in the near future.
Development for the Infuse is by no means dead. LunuxBozo is currently working on bringing CM7 to the Infuse and has made what I consider tremendous progress.
What I thought was, I'd become one of those deaf-mutes; or should I?

I would love to flame but since you asked nicely.. What do you mean he has removed his ROMs? Infused is still up and hasn't really had any major problems...

I meant the GB ROMs. Froyo were great and I have no problems with his GB latest ROMs as well, but I am no one to comment on Network data rate issues that others are having as I never get that high data rates in my area anyway
Not blaming Gtg at all.. he is awesome, but just curious to know if Infuse support will ever reach something like that for GalaxyS. Just love this phone ...

With the GB update looming, it may be fair to say that infused, as it sits, may be dead. Why continue development on the Rogers base when he can scratch it and wait for easy street with ATT update?

Yea. He's probably waiting for the gb update so he can get all the bugs fixed. I went back to stock as well and see if this update is true

I'm good with the Rodgers gb but I'd like to at least have infused (froyo) back if possible. I had to restore and lost everything. Hate being stock.

Froyo Infused was never pulled, it's still there.
As to gtg - I'm assuming he'll be back. He's probably burned out (I don't blame him) and needs a break. I would too. Since Rogers dropped GB we've been spending a liiiitle too much time at our keyboards...

Just hold on. Things will come eventually
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997R using XDA Premium App

i feel few people own infuse that's why we have so few custom roms whereas htc models and samsung galaxy are owned by way too many people and due to their popularity more devs came up with their edition.
as far as gtg is concerned froyo links are there and one link of infused is still there if one goes through infused rom.
i am just waiting for att gb update and then hope that we will have more custom roms and new version by our gtg

Be happy we're getting ICS. This is a year and a half old phone.
The only reason apple updates for so long is because it has literally like 6 devices to update. HTC has like 30+, all with diffrerent RIL, screen sizes, ram, processors, and carriers.
The CyanoogenMod developers don't work for you, don't expect anything from them.

I'm cool with just getting ICS

Android 4.1 is a stupid simple update from ICS. It isn't all that different and a lot of stuff will carry over. The developer's well get 4.1 running as soon as they can, if they can. The reason we don't have ICS is because we don't have a RIL yet. That should come with the first ICS leak.
If Apple's release schedule is superior then I think it's time for you to go buy an iPhone.The dev's are already pretty stressed out about this, and they do all their work for free. You honestly don't have the right to demand anything.
If you want the latest updates immediately after they come out, you should have bought a Nexus device.
Also, Cyanogenmod isn't the only AOSP build out there, and there are many better ones. I'd research into most of them, since the active CM developers for the Tbolt are working with 7, not 9(which is ICS based) it could be a while.
I also hope that your american comment was not serious, but it doesn't matter. The damage is done. Attitudes like that are the reason that a lot of other nations look down on the US and consider the citizen's ignorant and stupid.

Cant wait for 4.1 for my SGS2

what i am saying is that it is stupid how long it takes from the time google/moto releases the code to it gets to us on our phones. Even the sprint nexus s took over 6 months to get out.... why cant it be quick like apple is all i am saying since they too have many devices to support fromt he 3gs, 4, 4s and soon the 5.
and when the world has a problem who do they call? THE USA! True Power is not given... It is TAKEN.... J.R. Ewing

The thunderbolt is an older device now, it has a single core CPU and there are now phones that are quadcore with better screens and hardware. If you don't like the selection of roms our developers have made available to us, like you said, you're an American, you have the free choice to get another phone or learn to port jellybean to the bolt yourself.

Because I feel jellybean is easily installed as it is only a dot release so we are intitled to it.
Sent from my ADR6400L using xda premium

We wont see an official release of that and the only way we will is through development. Im honestly surprised that the phone manufacturers are even updating the thunderbolt and some of the others to ics. People aren't going to go out and buy a thunderbolt because it has ics. Theyre going to buy the new badass phone with a gazillion freaking cores in it that all dont even operate most of the time.

so let me make sure I understand this right. ICS is only on about 7% of the devices on the planet but you are crying and *****ing about a version of android that isnt even out yet not on a year and a half old device. i refuse to acknowledge all the other ignorant stuff you said because this was enough.
do the board a favor and next time you want to say something.... dont.

Sorry to be the glass half empty, but we have very little production here right now. G1 has more
Although, we may finally have some GB soon I'm thinking of testing it a little bit

+1 on the never comment. lol Facts are facts, even if we get that 2.3 you know how buggy that bad boys gonna be? Plus gingerbread ain't even that much better then froyo. Enjoy the sidekick for what it is, because Ric rpm and ayo have already made it as good as it's going to ever be imo. Just my 2 cents

Yeah, it's discontinued so the odds of people getting them is slim.
You know, I've read about so many hardware issues with these damn SKs' and I haven't had one. (Apart from the buggy touch sensitivity.) Did I just get a lucky unit or something? XD

I'm with you. I think we talked before about the screen issues. I think most of the issues were just from early rom developement. A lot of the early roms should of been betas but we were so starved for any kind of dev work stuff got rushed, people threw hissy fits, devs gave them the finger, the sk4g flatlined lol
