So it's been a little while since we've seen a new leak. I'm thinking Gingerbread is now done and in the hands of AT&T. What do you guys think? please, discuss.

Tbh I don't think at&t gives a **** about infuse owners. It didn't sell too well. They're focusing on marketing the skyrocket and attain sgs2 models.

I've met some ignorant people but some of these posts are mind boggling. Like they manage to ignore the entire forum just to respond to a single post and give their opinion about att.. We only have about 6 or 8 leaks for new firmware on a pretty regular release schedule and an att announcement that we get GB in 2011 and several threads showing the infuse as a top seller but we get responses like these.

So, we are 99% sure that we will get it. LOL At least by early to mid January, right.
But seriously, I hear you Dani, I love my phone and can't understand why since the SG2 and Nexus and Atrix are out suddenly people call ours ****e? It is annoying. Our phone is top quality.
Besides, after reading the discussion in the leak threads about how the video issue came up with all of the modded kernels and most importantly the assumption that AT&T developers care about what we do here at the forums so much that they use us as guinea pigs(in a good way) they stopped releasing leaks until they were ready for the official, I just took those words for GOLD and decided we are waiting. Was I wrong?

1) Yes, AT&T Doesn't give a damn about firmware updates.
2) The Infuse sold extremely well.
3) I've seen very little advertising on the Skyrocket, yet continue to see ads for the Infuse (as recently as this past week on TV and yesterday in a target flyer.)
I've decided I can live with the ROMS in our forums here and AT&T can kiss my shiny metal arse.
Well, not sure if this is any indication, but my local Walmart is selling infuse cases, as well as screen protectors, while there is nothing on the SGSII or Skyrocket. Honestly I think Samsung is spewing out more expensive versions of practically the same phone, and the Infuse is the OG in this siuation. *thinks of carbon copying phones, and sees a conspiracy theory!*
Since I follow these forums as well as the Xperia Play forums, my hypothesis is:
-They were testing GB
-They LOLragequit and decided to make all newer android phones upgradeable to ICS
-they plan on releasing ICS in January or February.
I know these are some out-there speculations, but AT&T tends to send firmware updates in batches, and it has been confirmed by Sony Ericsson that they are planning on ICS for the Play by February 2012.
Just my 2 cents on the matter.
What I think is that as usual att is behind schedule. Maybe Samsung put us off while developing a whole new line. Either way I doubt we will see official this month. but the idea we will never see it is just ignoring the evidence. They wouldn't be working on it so aggressively if they didn't intend to release it. Also since att probably only wanted one update the wait is kinda a good thing since we'll get at least 2.3.6 and not 2.3.3 like Rogers got.
I honestly don't think we will see gb officially. Bit I have had gingerbread on my phone for a while now
E3D
I think the Infuse is a decent phone.
Already fast.
Dual core means didily squat...to me, it a phone. If you want fast, get a tablet or netbook or laptop.
4.5" is just right in my back pocket or breast pocket.
GB leak is prob near completion.
I'm expecting a OTA within a month or two.
If it doesn't, UCKK4 stock is fine for me as well.
Some of the tweaks added to CatyROM (acid, thunderbolt or adrenaline) or some we can add ourselves may be better than the release....unless samsung has been follow the threads and incorporate them into the new release.
my2cents...
my next phone should have a neuro connection I can jam into my brain. It'll be instant like my thoughts. It'll run off my stored fat. And I will be assimilated

Right after the iPhone, and it would still be if it weren't for the new models.
What people don't seem to get, is that AT&T is also deving for the phone, they encounter the same issues that our devs encounter. Bluetooth issues, HDMI output, the only difference is that they are "Official Updates" because they are carrier released.
The only good conclusion about no leaks, is that it got it's kinks worked out and its in the final stages of testing to make sure no kinks were left untreated.

This could be very true. remember the backflip, that thing got its update to 2.1 like 4 months after it was planned. and to be honest, AT&T never said by years end. it said is 2011 android line will expect to receive gingerbread.
I quote
Upgrade Details
Customers who purchased an Android smartphone from AT&T introduced in 2011 can expect to receive an update to Android 2.3. All of these devices are planned to be upgraded from Android 2.2 to Android 2.3, also referred to as Gingerbread. In addition, Samsung Captivate™ owners will be able to upgrade to Gingerbread.

They spent all the time and money on developing the leaks just to keep the profit margin down. That way taxes are to high.

So back in December, Samsung stated that ICS would be available for Galaxy devices in Q1 2012 (http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2397850,00.asp - among other sources).
Someone asked on Facebook when the update for the Galaxy Nexus S was coming and Samsung stated that "ICS updates for Galaxy devices will be available in early Q2." (https://www.facebook.com/samsungmobilecanada/posts/10150560045396050)...
Idk, that may be a bit different because the Nexus S is in the original Galaxy S family. Those are going to be updated after all the Galaxy S2 devices. They actually weren't even going to release the update for those phones initially.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
Some rumors said march first, which would be q1 and not going to happen. Some leaked document i saw said april which would be early q2. God knows what they are doing over there. I want aosp/cm9 anyway, but if they release ics it might help get us closer.
I am so sick of this too.....
From now on I am only getting Nexus Devices
I'm sick of it too, but used to it. They just released official Gingerbread for the Captivate (my previous phone) a few weeks ago after XDA users had been running leaked versions for several months. But the devs here on XDA already have (as I understand it) some pretty kickass ICS roms available for the Captivate.
Don't hold your breath waiting for AT&T/Samsung. We'll have ICS here on XDA long before they make it officially available (but...without a secure element we won't be able to use Google Wallet--not sure how they're going to solve that one...re-issued sim cards maybe?)
Sounds like it's all Galaxy devices:
https://www.facebook.com/samsungmobilecanada/posts/10150560045396050
That being said, I wasn't holding my breath either for an official release but figured when one came it might help speed up some things here on XDA or for the CM guys.
And yeah, I was running ICS on my Cappy for a couple months before it died (needed a new mobo so the cost of upgrading to the SGS II LTE was actually cheaper than the repair on my Cappy - go figure)... the official Samsung/Rogers upgrade cycle on the Cappy was horrendous as well, bought it with Froyo, an hour later had CM7 on it, and it wasn't long afte they updated officially to GB that I was running TeamHacksung ICS alpha builds on it.
We'll be lucky to get official ICS before Jellybean is released
That is Samsung mobile Canada stating that. So may be different for us in the states. But what I think is funny is the vivid is getting the update soon, and if I'm not wrong both phones came out on the same day. So no blaming this on the carrier this time. Damn Sammy LOL.

True, it is Samsung Mobile Canada - I wasn't expecting us (or the US) to get it in Q1 anyways (officially) as the original statement I believe was for the international versions of the Galaxy S II/Note. Still, was hoping that the international stock rom would help jump/fix kinks some of the developers here are trying to overcome.
I'm in Canada, so I can only hope

To clarify, they only said the international versions of the S II and the Note would get it in Q1. The others that were announced to get ICS have never been given a time frame, other than that they would follow those two.
There seems to be a lot of confusion on that point.

Yes, I do understand that fully. Not holding my breath that the international version will be rolling out any time soon either.
Looking into the dev forum there are two promising roms one in alpha 1 with basic functions working and another one that the mods and the dev keep fighting over is a lot further along but I think was taken down again :-(. I'm guessing we have about a month maybe a bit more before we have some awesome functioning ics rom's
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using XDA App
Well Q1 is still not done with, we got a whole month for them to hopefully release.
technicalities... Huge companies always drag there feet, I almost guarantee the skyrocket dev community will have ics before everyone else

He's probably right, if the galaxy nexus has it, with an SOC which isn't so dissimilar to ours, they're probably sitting on it.

I'm switching to Verizon from Tmobile, I can't make up my mind on the GS3 or GN. I get a good deal threw my company and I can get either phone for $ 49.99. I want the Nexus because it has the best development and gets all the latest updates, and want the GS3 because of the amazing hardware and features...
What's should do?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda premium
Spec wise the S3 is better, Development wise the Nexus is better but the new Nexus is coming out this year. So, it's all up to you in you want an older phone with little bit worse specs than a newer phone with better specs unless you want to wait for the new Nexus.

You definitely made the right choice.
We have both phones on our VZ corporate account. The GN has a few more ROMs available, but other than that the G3 is light years ahead of the obsolete GN.

Plus the GN has almost a year of development time, it hasn't been a month yet for the GS3. Give it some time there will be some killer stuff on this phone.

I would honestly be surprised if the next Nexus phone is available on Verizon.
The GNEX was problematic because of the CDMA radio. The whole 'not a real nexus' and all. I think google has shown us how they want to start selling Nexus devices, and it doesn't appear to involve a carrier.

If they do this, there's no way in hell verizon would approve having a device that goes over their jurisdiction be allowed on their network. The only way you can get a device on Verizon is through them.

Well, what about the GS3 Developer edition?
I don't think you'll regret having the S3! It's been a great phone, and even though it's "locked" - there are/will be plenty of custom ROM's, hacks, and themes you can put into it!
I like the concept of the Galaxy Nexus but the screen is not as great as the S3, and even though it's only a 4.3 inch device, while the S3 is 4.8 - the S3 is the same size as the nexus and even a little thinner!!! Definitely nicer in my opinion!
I'm usually the type thats the first to get something new and as soon as the s4 was available for preorder for verizon i placed an order. But after reading some reviews and with the potential of other phones coming out this summer I was second guessing myself. The real deciding factor was when I flashed MOAR's rom on my S3 that added some of the s4 features. After a day with the rom I cancelled my order to wait and see what other phones are going to come out. I'm a bit dissapointed that the S4 isn't head over heels different than the S3 to make it a no brainer for me. Anyone else in the same boat?
I'm not in the same boat, but I was reading a post in the s4 sections about how most people are only getting about 6 hours on a charge...max. Also, that the phone is real laggy even after most of the features have been shut off.

I read some of the same thing and with the nexus 4 rumored to be coming to verizon as with the HTC One, I figured it can't hurt to wait it out and see the best option out there this summer. I wouldn't be worried about the lagging though as I'm sure Samsung will have an update to fix that or worst case someone will come up with a bloat free rom that should have the phone screaming fast.
Ill wait for the galaxy note 3.... Im sure samsung will have it in a premium build

only issue with what i'm reading about the X is that its going to be sold as a lower/mid end phone and not premium.
The rumors about X-phone not being high end were debunked. I'm also waiting to see that, Note 3 and next Nexus. Also in a few months we'll have phones on S800 as well as Intel SoC's.

Its a brand new toy. Of course its only going to last 6 hours if you don't put it down for more than 5 minutes in that amount of time. The important part is how much screen on time and mobile data connected time they got in that 6 hours.
I too have been reading some reviews and may stick with my s3 until something else is released. Maybe the Motorola X?
Another year for Phone another year of questions
Well just like last year, I told everyone that the international version of the S3 would be the quad core and the US variant of the S3 will have a dual core.
Looks like we are facing the same dilemma, the S4 intl has an octa core and the us S4 has a quad core.....
The fact that you are comparing the S4 to Moar rom on the S3 is sad.
First you don't have 4.2.2 to utilize all the nifty stuff.
Second you don't have any of the new sensors of the S4.
and lastly, the NOTE 3 will follow the same footsteps, expect the S4 hardware with some software and rom tweaks.
I personally wanted the Note 2 but got the S3 for size.
I will not make that mistake with the Note 3!
How many of you won't buy this phone again for the terrible radio. I don't know how its not a bigger issue for most of you. Everyone with a different phone on Verizon gets much better service, especially Motorola phones.
www.ryanhortonmusic.com
Also expect the note 3 to be locked down tighter than your wife after you told her she was fat...
You mfrs rewarding Samsung and Verizon, still continuing to pay them for the phone and the service while they lock us all down tighter deserve to have your android hacker card revoked.
As a community we should be rewarding those who offer openness and shunning those who close it down.
Keep paying them for closed devices and they're gonna think they're doing the right thing.
We didn't buy moto and now look at them. We didn't buy HTC, now look at them.
Speak with your wallet. Don't buy a locked device.

i'm not comparing my s3 with MOAR saying its just as good as an s4. What I was saying was that from what I'm looking for i can live with my s3 longer now that it has MOAR over picking up the s4 right away. Yes there are more sensors, its quicker, better camera, etc... but nothing that really is something that would wow me to have to pick it up. As some people stated this is more a S3S than an S4. if the nexus 4, google x, or htc one does come out for verizon it would honestly make me consider jumping to another brand. No knock on samsung but since the s3 they made everyone else up their game.
As it seems to be at least for me, hardware advancement starting to peak. Everything now is pretty much software progression...for now.
I have the S4 on Sprint and will be coming back to get it on Verizon on the 30th. The phone is sick. I am getting at least 24 hours on a charge with over 4 hours screen on time on the stock ROM rooted. I haven't tweaked anything. Whoever said they are getting 6 hours must have been talking about screen time. Lag? What lag? I have seen none. The GPS is scary accurate: instant 10 ft and knowing exactly how fast I am driving. There are so many advancements on this phone compared to my S3 that I can't wait for community development to move on it. If I can get over 24 hours on stock, it'll probably be 3 days with something like CleanROM or Carbon.
GS3
GS3 for the win!!
Yeah I agree that phones are starting to hit a critical mass level. I was going to keep my s3 and just update the software but my wife has an upgrade so I'm gonna use her upgrade to get the s4 and give her my s3.....unless the HTC one or lg nexus 4 is released before it ships at the end of the month.

Can anyone one tell me what it is about MM that has you feeling all this discontent? I'm confused, is MM going to transform your phone into this vastly improved device?

Outside of permissions control, what do we get in MM that we do not already have? I can understand Nexus users clamoring for it as they don't have half of the features out of the box as OEM devices but why us? Further, where did this notion that Samsung drops support of its flagships within a year come from. I have used Samsung devices including an S3 (ICS to KK), N3 (JB to Lollipop), and N4 (KK to at least MM) and all have been supported for 2 plus years. The Note 5 will get the same treatment.
Although I don't totally agree with those people who get all up-in-arms about not having the update, I can see the main point (at least I think): it may not bring super increased functionality or any brand new features, but the principal alone is what makes it frustrating.
Samsung, Tmobile, whoever it is should ensure a device, that is hardly 6 months old mind you, gets the newest update in a timely matter. There is no reason a phone released two years ago (HTC M8) should have MM before the Note 5. That's just simply not right.

Not worth it.

Not to mention Note 5 is close to being two Android versions behind, with Android N already in testing.

Really bro, come on? Now I want to know what this said..
In other news, its not about being upset at people wanting the update as much as it is about people creating threads to talk about the damn thing.
This is the same topic repeated over and over. This is pretty much crossed the line into spam.
I see all the other versions that got MM and they all seem to be having issues.
I'm fine waiting if ours comes nearly bug free.
Lollipop runs pretty good on mine, great battery and pretty smooth for the most part.

The guy who posted that link is correct, but the guy lives in Tijuana, Mexico which means his phone is the international version.
Here is the link to his post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-galaxy-note5/general/march-marshmallow-update-t3327363
Good luck,
Have a great day!
Coming from alot of updating on multiple older versions 4.0 & older i have to say I'm satisfied with the note 5 & lollipop software, long way from Ice cream sandwich
Something that is coming with mm is good lock, which looks like it might be fun to mess with.

Because somebody had to make this thread lol. But seriously...it's been almost half a year since MM was announced. This is beyond ridiculous.

You're absolutely right brother, but watch out! We have update haters that'll cling to your thread and troll about how stupid it is to want to update your Note 5.
Samsung and T-Mobile forever lost the little respect I had left for them. The best thing to do is to use your Note 5 as a paperweight, because it died the moment you purchased it.
I also decided to make all future purchases with Apple. Apple's doing things right as of lately.
