The only reason you would get flamed is if you posted this in the development section. Good job you posted your question in the right section.
According to Samsung they are rolling out the GB update to handsets in Europe (Galaxy S I9000) and based on their "Regional Plan" everyone else will be getting it as well.
That's a vague as it comes, but that's the latest from good 'ol samsung.
Oh cool thanks I was just wondering because before I bought this phone I was gonna get the nexus S but I wanted 4g so I got this but been hoping for a gingerbread rom I mean every other phone has it except this one wich is kinda gay

im a little naive when it comes to GB and havent read up on it. But, I was wondering what so good about a GB Rom? I would think people would want more Custom Roms than a samsung release.
would anyone like to share the differences between Froyo and GB?

Dude as soon as 2.4 comes out, all we'll hear is about is ICS. GB? Almost like the droid's 2.0 release... Well, almost.

Gingerbread's biggest plus is that it's got far better battery optimzation than Froyo.
In an attempt to compare apples to apples - Froyo Battery Life on my SGS4G and a 3500mAh battery is about 2 days.
In comparison, a MyTouch 4G on a 1400mAh battery and Gingerbread is about 2 days.
Both are used similarly.
Sgyee, mt4g battery life on gb is not 2 days its the reason i kept thesgs4gand gace the mt4g to my gf. Mt4g w upgraded battery to 1500 mah and not much use (few calls and texts) with set cpu running on demand is about 11hours. Thats w newest gb build, kernal and radio. The sgs4g battery tho 1650 mah is alot better w more use.
I once had a rooted Tb but when the first update came out it was unrooted. Now I am debating whether to root again. So are there any stable GB roms that won't brick my phone?

I thought das bamf was on top. I uprooted for a min as well. Waiting on my newest thunderbolt before I go back in. What happened to das bamf all over the board?
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
Some words were traded back and forth so Das BAMF pulled the plug on XDA. They can be found at teambamf.net
Is das bamf the best one out there?
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
Opinions vary. Synergy, BAMF, Gingeritis 3d Beta VI (what I'm running), Th3ory's ROMS - all good. However, somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but only Synergy and Gingeritits currently have anything based on the new GB leak.
Chingy and Bamf can be found elsewhere. A quick google search will allow you to find their roms.
Just a quick note...Th3ory is using the new leak for his ROMs.
Are you looking for sense based roms or stock android? I see nothing wrong with CM7.

^ This. It's definitely my favorite of all the GB based roms.
I like sense but I am open to stock Android

Synergy seems to have the least amount of problems(next to Das BAMF).
and just tell that CM7 fellow to bugger off!
Gingeritis 3d beta 6 with chingys new radio leak. Rock solid. Super fast. And killer batt life. I switched from bamf, and never looked back.

I flip flop back and forth between bamf and synergy a lot but so far synergy has seemed to be the best with stability/battery life.

Yea, chingy is behind the new gb base and radio leak, and he's working on synergy as well as his gingeritis roms, they are both pretty rock solid. That new gb base and radio along with ziggys kernel is like the perfect trifecta for my tbolt.
Sent from my TBolt using my f***king thumbs...
what radio do you need for synergy?
Mr2 at least, I would recommend the new chingy leak though
Sent from my TBolt using my f***king thumbs...
I've about tried them all. Most stable is BAMF 3D 4.9. Fastest is Chingys 3D beta 6.

Why isn't there a stable cm7 build yet? Or maybe there is and I'm just missing it.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using XDA App
focus is on CM9 I presume
i have a feeling its cause CM9 isnt far off. by not far off i mean within the next 3 months HOPEFULLY,
3 months is too long. I can't live without cm! It was out so quickly on the sgs2...
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using XDA App
Once we get ICS either officially or ported, I m pretty sure CM9/MIUI will be around the corner!!!!!!
I just recently flashed cm7. It is actually very stable which I was not really expecting based on the alpha status.
Sent from my SGH-I727
It was out for the SGSII so quickly because it has the Exynos chip, like the international version which had already been out for 6 months. It was a much easier port than having to create CM7 from scratch.

So apparently HTC has updated their list of devices receiving ICS... 2 of which being the Thunderbolt and Incredible 2. Clearly HTC and Samsung are seperate companies, but seeing how both these devices were released well before the DC maybe Samsung will give us some official ICS love.
Thoughts?

It's a thought, maybe I can come back to bed and dream some more on ICS for the Charge! hehe.
They haven't released RIL wouldn't hold my breath.
Would be nice of them but I don't see that happening for months. If at all. Sammy isn't that great for pushing updates IMO from past phones..
Sent from my SCH-I510 using XDA App
Points in favor of the Charge getting ICS:
It was a flagship phone, dropping support would tarnish Samsung's reputation
Contemporary phones seem to be getting ICS
The Charge has just been released for US Cellular as the Galaxy S Aviator, and 18 months of updates means it pretty much has to get ICS...
Points against the Charge getting ICS:
The Galaxy S isn't getting ICS, because Samsung says it doesn't have enough memory... and has the same amount of memory as the Charge.
Honestly, I have no idea what to expect at this point...
For now I would treat ICS on Droid Charge as....a miracle! rare to happen...but possible.
We'll have a better shot of a dev porting it before Samsung.
Sent from my SCH-I510 using XDA App
Samsung, updating Droid Charge would be like putting it on the Fascinate...same phone Charge just has LTE
Dee Ex Two - See Em Seven
Samsung has said that the original galaxy s phones aren't getting ics because they don't have enough ram after samsung puts tw on it. I will assume the galaxy s 1.5 phones aren't getting it either because they have just as much ram.
Sent from my pocket-sized, Linux-based computer using electromagnetic radiation... and Tapatalk.
It's been.pretty much said by Samsung that the Galaxy S line(including variations) won't get ICS since they want to include TW with it. That would, I assume, require more memory. Our only hope would be 100% stock ICS ported over.
But damn, if the Nexus S had LTE, that probably would have helped a bit.

Yea my thing is .... Samsung would look hella bad if they didn't and HTC did update phones released prior to DC .Aside from that Sense is a lot more of a memory hog than tw... the thunderbolt ONLY has 25% more ram.. then again it has 25 % more ram so who knows
RE- ril; the fact that Samsung doesn't seem to want to release the code doesn't mean they wont release ICS... ril doesn't need to be public for them to release an official build... or am I mistaken?

You are not. The RIL is just a necessity for a community build of it, which would likely come out much sooner than an official one if we could get ahold of it
The problem isn't the amount of RAM, it is the amount of space allocated for /system on the device. If they would include TouchWiz, it likely would not have enough space left for everything. However, the fact that I have heard there are internal builds of ICS for the Charge is promising. Also, the fact that the Thunderbolt is getting ICS helps our case as well.
Being that the charge and epic are so similar besides the keyboard, you guys should get with our devs and see if you can port over our cm9.

Do you have link to it?
I have two friends with a charge. I rooted a flashed eclipse on one of them. Just haven't seen anything cm, or miui related in your forums. Just curious why no support in those areas. Unless its on other sites and I missed it. Would love to give them some ics cm9 if its functional enough to use as a daily.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
The charge seems like a really nice device. I'm surprised there isn't a ton of development for it. My friend was about to get rid of his till I had him root and eclipse it. Hope it picks up around here for everyone. Thought my epic was done for a while too, then all of a sudden, all kinds of goodies started popping up.

There isn't a daily driver ICS build. Wifi only build is out so far. RIL is what's holding us back. :/

They are claiming July-August for ICS. I'll believe it when I see it.
They did say earlier this year it would be near the end of q3 when they pushed the ota out. I would say if they are honestly trying to get the update out then it will be at the end of august or later. They almost always delay by 2 months usually.

I know there is no actual for this, but, is there an about time frame for leaks before they release official? I guess I mean, is it feasible to say that there may be a leak by the end of June? I know, purely speculation. But fun to guess.
Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk 2
There is no way to know that because if we get a leak then we get a leak. The only way we can get a leak is if someone puts it out there for us.

Man, I disagree wholeheartedly. Stock ICS blows any of our roms out of the water...in power management and usability. Add in the features in, say, AOKP and wrap it up in Apex Launcher and it's pretty much the best mobile experience I can imagine.
If only that Nexus I had for a month got better reception...loved the software.
