Ive always wondered when something "leaked" showes up, where and how is it launched to the puplic?
ATT SkyRocket [MHX-SUPERLITE-3.1]
ROM Fairies.....
I believe they purposely leak them because their devs can't figure out a problem and leak it to the community to hammer out.

I think your right. That was the theory on the old windows 6.5 Roms.....
ATT SkyRocket [MHX-SUPERLITE-3.1]
I know with my backflip there was a 2.1 rom that was leaked that was a test rom for a few att users who were more or less beta testers. needless to say a nice little dump and everyone had the new rom .
This looks more like it was something for att to play with as UltraCfg does not seem like something that should ship to a end user.
Well, when a mommy rom and daddy rom love eachother they lie down together and wish for a leaked rom. Then the rom fairy visits and leaks all over them.
Probably the same place 95% of "leaked" stuff comes from, the company itself in an effort to:
A: Generate some "buzz" on the item in question
B: Do an informal test of their unfinished product amongst a small but dedicated group of power users
C: A & B
Well you see, Billy, when a mommy hacker and a daddy hacker love a phone very much...

Oh god dammit, beaten to it.
In the case of the ICS leak, it was probably a conscientious objector. After seeing them mutilate ICS with Touchwiz, he remembered that "just following orders" does not justify one's participation in crimes against humanity.

I think its pretty safe to say that the "Big Wiggs" are watching us. They release a device to the public, the public gets it and tears the thing apart hardware and software wise and somehow beat the big billion dollar company at their own game. Producing firmware that is usually far superior to what they did.
They can't make better firmware without our devs making it first that's why they always seem behind in the game. Its also why were all here :beer:

That's got to be the answer right there.
How it works is the Father sg2 puts his dongle inside the mother sg2's usb port. This has the effect of making the father and mother's nfc chips tingle, making it an enjoyable experiece. A few weeks later the mother sg2 has to get a bigger battery cover to make room, and then soon after, we have a leak.
It could very well even be one of us

I wanted to say thank you so much to all the wonderful devs here for all of their efforts making the Captivate a better phone than Samsung could. Please don't flame me, this isn't a knock on the Captivate, I loved the device even with it's flaws. I will miss the Captivate forum, yesterday I jumped to T-Mobile, better rates and they have dual core phones. I got an HTC Sensation and I love it.I will miss my Cappy but I couldn't deal with Samsung's shortfalls any longer, I want a device that works as it should out of the box. I also would like timely updates which AT&T proved they suck at providing. Happy flashing to all and thanks for the wonderful support provided by the community.
Good luck.

You can't blame the hardware for crappy made software from the service provider or user error from bricking. I have never done anything that I couldn't fix and that wasn't my fault...
The fact that you CAN make it better by flashing new software proves that the hardware is adequate. The only thing you could perhaps complain about is gps but if you're that dependent on it maybe you should take some time learning your way around...

Would be nice if there was a Android Update Alliance!
Wish google would read that and take it to heart.
Wish AT&T would read that too
Even if we Infuse owners never see it, I'm truly hoping ICS fixes all of the myriad issues with Android. It has the potential to be the one OS to rule them all. I look forward to its release and reading and learning all I can about it in hopes we do receive it.
That being said, I would be happy to just get GB.
PS,
And yes, I realize that there are fantastic ROMs and whatnot out there, I mean official.

Update 2/14/12: I'm not holding my breath for ICS on Charge anymore. Looks like Samsung is holding back some critical pieces. If I had time, I'd work on it myself. Since I don't, I have no right to complain. Those of you who are interested in tracking progress, please follow the link below:

Btw on rootzwiki there are sometimes different things and tid bits of info.... Too the op if you really are already behind it, meaning ics, just donate because the work the devs put it including themers, testers, rom developers,and tweakers is worth it even if we don't get it... I donate sparingly because I'm currently unemployed and somewhat frugal when it comes to giving free money, but his work and others has inspired me to do things myself, like theming... It's not for everyone as any aspect it's time consuming like people wouldn't believe, but it's satisfying... Time = $$$$$ so if you want to maybe push him along and show him the charge is worth his time and others drop a donation.... Don't say well if you do this, when almost every dev for android is worth more than just a few empty promises of donations.... Just donate and they will provide you with information, help, tweaks, colorful and some not so colorful themes, and roms for your pleasure.... I'm sure they get slack for the time put on by there irl friends and family ad I just started and Im already getting it.... So again just donate.... Empty promises never inspired anyone...

Home button and camera doesn't work on the ICS build. It APPEARS much faster than 2.3.5 (a lot less stuttering for me but I wasn't playing with any special builds there....)
the installer.zip auto reformats you to ext4.
It shows extreme promise for an alpha build IMHO.

Why do you think the sgs4g needs to get ics? My phone is fast got extremely great battery life and tons of other things. Do you just want ics so you could have the latest android flavor or do you think or know it will make our phones that much better. I'm not trying to be a smartass just curious why ppl are this rilled up about ics.
I think the only reason is because "others have it".
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
Great words blazen you know maybe ics has some quiet interesting features but our developers make than our phone from crappy to gingerbread better than ics that is one the reasons I want to start developing because I feel that I got skills to make some good stuff for the phone ( like themes and guides only things that i have finished) and other reason is because here our developers are way better than samsungs horrible costumer service....anyway every sgs4g user most appreciete the developers work even if the projects are not finished like ics port and aosp port because that makes people more happy and they know that there works are awesome

I believe that most want it because it is the newest OS and most believe it will be an improvement, much like GB compared to Froyo... Which is understandable considering the developers here are going full bore in a attempt to port ICS.
Being one of those that was satisfied with froyo, I have to admit I am even more satisfied with GB... But as for your question, I personally hope that it is released for our phone because if it is, so to would the source be released (just imagine what the developers could accomplish with it).
Just my 2 cents in the well.

You do realize that's a post from someone in the forums right? No word from Samsung USA. You cannot depend on what a customer service rep says, they sit behind the computer all day and still do not know a thing about the products they are supposed to be supporting. They are just trying to shut us up about it already. If the OG galaxy s gets just a value pack, it'd be hard to imagine them bending backwards to give us full ICS

If I am not mistaken the T-Mobile version is the same as the Telus S2 in Canada. If it is I would not be in any hurry to upgrade to ICS. My own experience and experience of others as reported on the Howardforums has not been stellar. Problems with apps freezing and battery life going in the toilet are common. Looks great, just doesn't work very well. I would hold off until these issues are addressed. I usually always wait to do an update until I here some feedback but this time I jumped in and am now regretting it.

Not up to you to decide if you were banned unfairly. That's for the moderators to handle. You could have acted respectful and took it up with them.

If you're willing to act like a spoiled brat and disregard any rules that don't suit you, how do I know you haven't done something like installed a back door in your ROM? Maybe you haven't. But perhaps you can see why acting badly can damage your reputation?
I don't care what one member thinks. I do what benefits me and the community. Don't trust my work, everyone else will remain ahead. A Backdoor on an Android device? Considering the ROMs kernel was developed by nxd you're saying you don't trust him. Regardless, any back doors are easily found by
