ATT's Five New Ginger Phones Today - 10/11/11 - Samsung Infuse 4G

AT&T announced five new Gingerbread phones today.
Question is: so where's the love for our Infuse Gingerbread?

Those are new phone releases...not updates to existing phones

I think I may need to get me some Ginger ale to go with all this ginger spreading around

hmmm that samsung captivate glyde.... i want... but i will wait out the prime.

It would be awesome if i got the gs2 or prime, my dad got my infuse, and my mom gets the glide, then we could switch off devices that would be so cool.

Eh... I think we are aware of that. The point is, ATT is busy porting GB over to the new phones where new sales are. But there's no or less money in doing so for the existing phones aside from new Infuse sales.

AT&T doesn't do the porting - Samsung does and AT&T delays the updates.
It was barely acceptable to release a Froyo phone when the Infuse was released - a Froyo-on-release phone would be dead in the market now.

What do you think would be the motivation for AT&T to delay the updates; especially for their just-released SGS2? The only thing I can think of is needing to beef up support needs. But then again, versus the lost sales.
I had just finally convinced a buddy to go with the Android o/s and especially the Infuse or the SGS2. Then he came around citing his research that both phones are really behind the curve and that he minimally wants a GB phone now.

Samsung would get a lot of brownie points back from me if they released Gingerbread this quickly.
But c'mon.. Let's be real. There's no way this is happening.

Samsung is not going to release Gingerbread. Mark my words. That is not how they do business. Need Gingerbread, buy a Galaxy S II, is going to be their motto.
Or Nexus S... or Nexus one...
We got our one update for this phone. Now it's up to the developers, if we ever get anything better.

It does matter wether they release it. A lot of the drivers are available in binary form only, as they are proprietary. Having Gingerbread compatible drivers available from Samsung can help withdeployment of CM7. IIRC, what slowed down CM 6.1 was the lack of Froyo drivers from Samsung.

Anybody else listing their thunderbolt?

I just listed mine on Craigslist in anticipation of the SGSII coming to VZW.
I'm really really hoping it'll have 4G because I don't want to come back to the tbolt or have to deal with the bionic (unless the bionic is unlockable).
What about you guys? Anybody else selling to get top dollar before the new phones are officially announced?
Edit: http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/0...according-to-the-vzw-support-twitter-account/ woot, sgs2 will have 4g!
Lol, what if it's delayed I may sell mines eventually as well, I hate Samsung but this phone is a beast.

Yeah, I'm worried about it being delayed too :\
Fortunately, I have an old Incredible laying around that I can use in the meantime. I really hope VZW doesn't drop the ball here and delay it past early September. As far as I can tell, that tweet is VZW's first admission that the sgs2 for VZW even exists.
I'm not a fan of Apple....errr Samsung so I think I'm sticking with the Bolt!!

After hearing that it will have 4G, I might be tempted to sell my TBolt once it launches. I also am not a fan of samsung phones, but this thing really makes me drool.
i'll probably wait until next march(when my 1st year is up) as ill get my $400 deposit back then.
As a previous owner of the fascinate, I am definitely with you guys on the anti-Samsung bandwagon. The thing that has changed my mind is that Samsung has said that the sgs2 is practically made for Ice Cream Sandwich. That gives me hope that they will be updating it relatively quickly once ICS is released.
Also, the fact that they gave the sgs2 to some of the CM devs makes me think they are more consumer focused than they were the first go 'round.

All good points, I forgot they hooked up some devs with phones. I still have nightmares about my Captivate. This phone is in a completely different league though.
To be honest with you I want my next phone to be great out of the box. I never thought I would reach a point that I would be tired of rom flashing, lol. I could slap lpp on top of touchwiz and would be good to go.
Still love my bolt though, we'll see.

It's also the first and only android phone with a completely open sourced linux kernel (no linked binary blobs for drivers in it).
Selling your phone off for this right now is silly though. Who knows when it'll be out for CDMA/LTE. It could be another 5-6 months at the earliest.
The Galaxy S2 having 4G is still unconfirmed.

No one knows for sure if SGS2 will have LTE, although Samsung would be pretty stupid to not support it. If it does, I will be first in line....but my Tbolt will do just fine until then.

Kies mini recognizes my infuse now but says its unregistered.
we know that the infuse and sgs4g are getting 2.3.5 and the t-mobile gs2 supposedly ships with 2.3.5 but the gs2 att version ships with 2.3.4. give it atleast a couple weeks since they will likely update both (and the captivate) together. i doubt they will give us 2.3.5 before the gs2 but who knows. even if they do i dont think they'd release the infuse update till after the frenzy is over for the gs2

The crazy part is that if you go on the AT&T website right now and look at the specs for the GS2, it doesn't' even list what operating system it comes with.

The 2.3.5 leaks are pretty good but I get it. Lack of sources is a *****. Entropy fixed wifi on his kernel but no HDMI is annoying. I am on the fence with what to spend my time with. I might abandon simply honey as there are bug I have no hope of fixing and my even after disabling the battery full notification it still causes a bug where I need to reboot the phone to mount the SD after a full charge.
Its either work on that or work on ucki3/4 and I'm leaning towards ucki3 over simply honey right now.
Yeah it's a joke that official gingerbread isn't out yet. Guess we are really lucky to have the roms we do. Infused 1.6 is excellent. Will be sad when all the devs leave for gs2!!

Upgrade to Sgs Skyrocket or stay with infuse?!

I'm on the fence! I barley became elgible for an upgrade. I was going to go with an iphone 4S and just sell it however the Skyrocket seems tempting. The specs seem only slightly better than my infuse. However my infuse has been buggy lately. Should I stay with the infuse and sell my upgrade? Or should I splurge for the skyrocket? I'm currently in an area that doesn't yet have LTE so AT&T will give it to me for $149

Agreed... If you're looking for development, I'd stick with the SGS2. I think the Skyrocket is going to have limited development and the LTE could cause issues like it has on Verizon with development. Just my own two cents. Or hold out for the Galaxy Nexus.
No issues here. I'm currently running both phones. Skyrocket does everything my infuse does only faster, and the battery last me almost twice as long. Side by side screen is same size, but skyrocket has shorter housing which to me makes the phone feel a tad bit smaller in hand.

the infuse dev will never be what it will be on th sgs2 varients especially not the i9100 or i777 but i think one thing holding up the infuse is that we expexted a quick 2.3 upgrade so froyo development stopped. i mean in janurary samsung advertied the infuse a a gb device. then we got rogers rom but it didnt satisafy everyone. i was gonna start up a rom on froyo and then we got some leaks. but now we dont have source code froyo doesnt look appealing and the gb leaks are dropping so fast nobody is interested in working with them.
i think there will be 1 or 2 decent roms once att says it's ok to drop a new firmware version but from the leaks id have to say samsung isn't ready. i foresee the same situations that happened on the captivate. come december we'll all bring up the add showing the 11 or so devices promised gb by the end of the year (like samsung promised froyo for the galaxy s varients on twitter in the us but att missed that deadline) and att will simply say "we had problems" which is all rediculous because it looks like samsung only started woring on the update 2 months ago, which probably has more to do with att not showing interest in an update than anything else.
Granted, I don't believe the Skyrocket will be getting ICS in a timely manner because AT&T truly sucks in the upgrade department...but I doubt it will be abandoned like the Infuse was. Any phone that can run ICS will be somewhat coveted.
The Infuse became outdated and forgotten because it was one of the last single cores made. There are always going to be people who want the bigger display. I personally hated the size of the S2. I can never go back to a smaller screen again. The think the Skyrocket will hold it's own with the "size matters" crowd. It looks like a great phone and nearly everyone who has one is loving it.
I was at att the other day upgrading gf line to the HTC vivid, I noticed the infuse was off all displays and all the cases and such were locked in a drawer. The rep also told me that LTE won't be up here in Maine until next upgrade, lol, although its launched in Mass. She also informed me that I can early upgrade any of my 3 lines for a diduction of $200 off retail ($450) ill wait another month or 2 than upgrade my line, ill only lose a few months while my 3rd line upgrades next may. Also, my infuse as been super buggy as of late, I'm now getting strange bubble popping sounds with volume off and with out touching anything, this is my 3rd infuse.

[Confirmed] Skyrocket will receive ICS this Summer

Lets just say I have an...informator. Anyway, I texted him and asked if he knew when ICS was coming for the Skyrocket. He released the skyrocket under his wing. He said not a specific date, but sometime this summer.
So ICS devs, keep deving.
PS.. Cant get him into to trouble, so no more info.
BALLS......
So in other words....when the international one hits. We will see that one ported before AT&T gets around to it. (the international Skyrocket or T mobile variant)

Lets just say I have an...informator. Anyway, I texted him and asked if he knew when ICS was coming for the Skyrocket. He released the skyrocket under his wing. He said not a specific date, but sometime this summer.
So ICS devs, keep deving.

No offense but I find this hard to believe.
Why is hard to believe I got stung by Samsung in the past.
They are full of excuses but they can not explain to me why my Transformer Prime got ICS in a month and it takes them more than 6 months to upgrade this device.
They sell you a device they got paid, they get nothing by providing timely upgrades,

You haven't dealt with the 'prompt' ATT before.

If I had to guess I bet the Prime has one hardware revision, and the galaxy even within the same device branding has multiple. The Windows Phone 7 Samsung Focus had major issues with updates, because Samsung made minor changes between rev 1.3 & 1.4.
As far as the release date for ICS a Samsung employee can just be repeating a rumor they heard, just as well as a non employee
When does samsung start their summer? I'm sure it's not the same months when we start ours.
Just like our Q1 isn't the same as theirs. Oh and the definition of soon between us and them seems to be pretty conflicting too.

I had a Motorla on T-Mobile and waited 9 months past a promised date only to get a half-assed upgrade. So it's not just Samsung & AT&T.

Well since the Vivid got ICS, hopefully it isn't long until the Skyrocket and At&t sgs2 get it... I'm not even looking forward to the rom, just kernel source

So if the galaxy s3 is coming in April with ics??......WTF getting tired of all the update games these companies are playing. Mark my words jelly bean will be on a device and released before we get an official update.

If that jelly bean phone is a nexus phone, I'm throwing this SGS2 out and never looking back, ever.
No One Knows
Israeli Skyrocket gets updated Mid March 2012 (1st Q ) Maybe we can get code and use it on ATT and maybe not. Rumors and promises appear worthless. It is what it is and will come out someday.

Please tell me his name is Scotty and he's from the Starship Enterprise and always manages to get'er'done in 1/2 the quoted time.
It's amazing how many people have "sources" in magical places
I wouldn't be surprised if we didn't get ICS till summer, Sammy doesn't have a very good track record with updates. I shudder to think how long it'll take them to release the source.
