Fresh out of the weekend since their support page was updated. A 5-3 release makes sense. Hopefully the radio version is different than the leak, which is reboot happy due to the radio. Software versions match though.
Thanks for the details. I look forward to the official, the leaked was not very stable.

I haven't seen any date associated with the ota update before this, so it was a helpful post for me.

If it's not news to you, stop being an elitist jackass and don't post. The OP was just trying to help.

is there another post mentioning the date it will be pushed ota?
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
This is the first time I've seen a release date for it posted.
i apologize if this info was already posted. I was just trying to share some info i just noticed. as many people have stated, i have not seen an actual date of release. I also have access to phones a few days before they are released so if there is anything i can do to help the community, please let me know. i have a thunderbolt, and being an employee, i can have my phone replaced whenever needed so i am willing to try pretty much anything (guinea pig anyones software). so if any dev wants me to try something i am more than welcome to.
nice to know

You should put this out there, as I'm sure many devs would love your help.
Also, I'm sure everyone here would like early impressions on new phones.

I'm not quite sure. Maybe just a new thread in TB General? I would ask someone first, if I were you. Maybe a mod.

Thought I'd post this for you guys. Tiered data starts July 7th. However, if you already have unlimited data, you will not be forced to a tiered plan when you upgrade. Again, if your line has a smartphone on it by July 7th, you'll keep unlimited data until you activate a non smartphone.

Like I said. I was at work. I glanced. Sorry for tryin to post somethin helpful. Thank you forum police

Yeah I already knew this but not thanks to other threads, I appreciate you doing so though, whats funny is how people ***** about another thread and saying.you could of looked before you posted when they don't have to click on the post in the first place its just as easy to scroll on by instead of going in and trolling.
Also there is only one other thread in the top ten and that thread doesn't say that info until my post on the 11th page so yeah.
Thank you! There are still decent people on xda!

Btw, just asked a simple question. Didn't Think I'd see such BS for asking it. Guess it shows the maturity level of some of the people on here.

Not searching first shows your maturity level. This question gets asked at least once a day. There's even a damn sticky!

At least this curious fellow used the Q&A section for his obviously under researched question instead of the dev section...
I've been reading these forums for almost two years, but my first post was a week ago. Rule of thumb: type out your post. Delete it. Search. 99% of questions have been addressed.
And sure, maybe you were treated rudely, but everyone is trying their hardest to clean up the messy forums resulting from actions like these. I tell little kids all the time "you seek smart, so stop doing stupid things." Don't take it personally.

Welcome! You'll have a lot of fun here, the community is great. Btw do you need help finding anything? Let me know
Sent from my SGH-I997 using xda premium
Keep in mind research before you flash a custom kernel or rom. If you do something wrong may cause a soft brick. Which can be solved with one the unbrick methods. Welcome to infuse.
I bricked a razr once. I'm in no hurry here.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA App
Almost impossible to brick this phone where u can't get it back to stock. Just make sure u become familiar with gtg's unbrick program. Its a life saver or phone saver which ever way u wanna look at it.

my biggest complaint with the infuse is the gps won't lock. hoping a new rom will help.
New here. I'll lurk for a while reading, lots to read. Thinking of GIngerbread, but will read first.

Well, I feel a little stupid, turning on data packets fixed my gps, lol.

Try flashing different modems...that will also help GPS lock faster and help with data speeds and signal
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda premium
Try FusionXII rom. I got a fix in about 30 seconds. It's always odd how a standalone gps can get a fix in 30 seconds with no cell tower or internet data to help it along but a phone can't get a fix without them.

Be warned: Once you start flashing Roms it's hard to pick just one...

Hey everyone, I am also pretty new to XDA, just started try to get more involved with my infuse. I had a captivate prior to my infuse that my friend did a wonderful job flashing various roms to, and I finally have found both the initiative and time to work on doing things of a similar nature on my infuse.
So nice to meet all of you. I figured I'd post here to avoid having to make a new thread.

I have noticed lately that my allowed thanks count doesn't really reset at any specific time, it seems completely random. I had some members help me out today and I couldn't thank them this morning, so I went back to those post just now and was only able to thank 3 times before getting the "sorry you are limited to 8 thanks" message. Has anybody else experienced this? Or is there a mod that can tell me what's going on? Am I going crazy? I am confuse.
I don't think they all reset at the same time. They reset one by one 24 hrs after you use each one.

No need to think it, you are correct. Says so on that noob guide which I read every once in a while

Jbrt is totally correct about that. So if you use your first one at 6am, the next day your first one will be available from 6am.
If you use the app you'll get more to use though.

That makes perfect sense! Thank you all, I will be back for y'all once I get some more thanks available. I didn't consider myself a noob but I obviously have missed some things so I'm gonna read the guide you posted and see what else I can learn.
Edit: that was a great read, I didn't know those stars = donations, pretty cool.
I haven't really had a proper read through it myself. I just tend to refer to it when there's something I need to know and I feel it'll be in there.
