You and your hatred of ics are hilarious. JB is built right on top of ics it's not even a new build just added features and a version number change. I bet if they went back and renamed fk23 an ICS build you'd hate it but since it's labeled JB you love it lol.
On topic: maybe this will cut down on the repeated question of "how do I update to fl24?" But I really doubt it. Seems recently theres been a huge influx of seriously illiterate n00bs who flat out refuse to even scroll down the page b4 clicking [new thread] or [reply] I stopped answering the same questions over and over and now just wait for them to figure out for themselves or someone else to parrot the answer for the umpteen millonth time :banghead:

Not so fast EviL, I don't always jump into new releases or roms, I always observe and read, especially the bugs posts. If something works and has a good battery life I'll try it, now how do I know that ics sucks? Only because i tried it. So they fixed ics, after the fix they renamed it jelly bean- that works for me.
Yes I love the jelly bean.!!! :beer::thumbup:

Will this update hit my phone at 3a.m. While i was on my lunch break at work so the oblivious question is will this update affect my phones performance? And when will the rooy be avabile for it?

Yes there is root available, also thru Qb king vids, but id caution on the custom recovery, they need to come up with a better method, cause it made a few phones go nuts, including mine, still waiting.....

I hope the official Sammy ICS comes to us!

So it seems that Sammy has released ICS stock for SGS3 and SGS2. I'm hoping that this makes it to all versions or at least we can use the base to slap together something for us here. Long shot, but you can always hope....

That's pretty cool! If they don't don't do that for us, it must be because of Sprints request.
Read the articles, not just the headlines. It is stock touchwiz.

Well technically the Epic touch is still on Gingerbread so I don't think they would be able to port to our phone yet.
Once the source is released a good developer could build a stock AOSP ICS ROM for our phone...
It would be nice to start from a un-modified Android ROM so that we could have something similar to CM9 with tweaks specific for only the E4GT.

I totally agree with you on ICS based ROMs are buggy and laggy. I've tried a few now and I haven't really been blown away with ICS so far. And I agree with the need for an official build for our ET4G's.
But I don't think it's Samsung's fault totally, I'd almost place most of the blame on Sprint. The international GS2's have their ICS update, and we all know to well that the ET4G's update to ICS is being worked on and tweeted by Sprint. A good portion of our ICS custom ROMs come from Sprints development and leeks, so it's there.
Sprints got a few new ICS devices out like the new Nexus and EVO. Plus more in the works for this summer, mainly the GS3. I always feel that most of the "feet dragging" on updates are done by the carriers. Why would they be concerned with updating last year's hardware, it only costs them money. When they could focus on selling us the next big thing with all the new bells and whistles and make some money. But hey that's just my opinion on the it.
For my money I'm sticking with 2.3.6... I've been running a stock, rooted, debloated rom as well as the stock kernel and modem for the last few weeks now and loving it. Using GoLauncherEX as my launcher I get no lag, and haven't had to deal with any lockups, random restarts or apps not working right or not at all.
Updates are always going to be an issue... I remember the wait for Froyo, it finally came out and most of us were disappointed with it. Then the wait for Gingerbread started... It fixed a lot of issues, but over the last year or so with the release of 2.3 and it's minor updates Gingerbread has become very stable and fast. Especially on devices like our ET4G'S, Gingerbread was originally written for lower spec devices so... On a device that's capable of running ICS it runs like a dream. But again that's just my opinion.

In this case look at the pictures not the article. That looks like plain jane ICS on the left. Also removing any and all carrier branding is a HUGE bonus!

Are you talking about the Galaxy Nexus on the left? In the case of Galaxy phones, Samsung will never release a plain ICS version w/o touchwiz. Just gotta wait for kernel source and aosp rom developers to mess with it.

Yup he surely is. The Gnex is on the left with stock ICS while the SGS3 on the right is stock touchwiz ICS.

Qbking77 did this video to show you how to check the rdfs http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n0sG7t6zwAg
These are probably small software updates like LG2. Would be cool if they were JB though.
Im thinking minor as well if they were Jellybean i would be having a spasm attack lol im going to keep checking the rdfs everyday and see if i ever see differences or android version 4.1 <3
Spent way too much time checking that Epic4G Touch thread. If this thread becomes half of what that did its gonna be fun... come on JB rfds

(please don't lock) just some food for thought.

figured i'd share this experience with my fellow epic users.
anyway tonight i made a quick run to the grocery store before it closed, mind all of you this is a 10 min trip to,grab and check out, and back home. as i get half way to the store i realized i forgot my phone and got irate. saying to myself "how could you forget that of all things" and honest to what ever greater power there is i stopped and almost went back home for it. and i really had to stop myself and say "what the **** are you doing? it's not even that serious."
i know some are gonna come with the cool story bro line. but i really took this as a sign that i need to lighten up on material things. i was really willing to risk getting my phone and skip grabbing some form of nourishment.
Watch the movie the transcendant man. Its on netflix. The main character has a crazy idea that computers will eventually shrink to the size of blood cells and we will become human hybrids of technology. Computers have already shrunk from taking up a whole room to sitting in our pockets in a short amount of time, so his idea makes sense.

I've tried most of them. Some are great and highly customizable. With that being said I'm currently running jellybean gb08 (stock/rooted). Battery is great phone is smooth and sleeps well not to mention full 4g speeds where the network doesn't suck. ( kernel source not out and I personally experienced slow 4g on custom kernels)

Try Cyanogenmod10.1 wild for the night, Its latest features and easy to use. It has bad battery life depending on usage i don't play games on this rom because i know it has bad battery life. If i just call, text, internet, twitter, facebook then i get about 14-15+ hours.

Try Calkulin's E4GT v3.0 EL29 Its a bit outdated but it has very awesome battery life, i get around 25+ hours.

Try GB08 Jelly Bean latest leak for best featured touchwiz experience and it has nice battery life 19+ hours.

You know that if you get this wrong you might as well put your balls in a frying pan and start cooking!!
So be wise and choose carefully. You need something simple that gets good signal all the time, doesn't freeze, doesn't crash, and the battery lasts most of the day. Sounds like stock/rooted jellybean to me.
If you want to get fancy with all kinds of bells and whistles you can try a custom build rom but you're going to be putting your self in danger.
The safest custom roms may be some GB builds, Calkulins el 29 v. 3.0 is a good set up, super stable with great battery life. ( I have this build on my wife's phone at present ). I was on this same build until Jb GB08 dropped.
Running stock/rooted GB08 /Fl16 kernel /GB08 modem, everything works the way it's supposed to.

Lol @ this thread... first of all, questions go in the Q&A section.
Second, these threads don't do very well since everyone has their own personal opinion. Your best bet would be to read.

I agree with PanchoPlanet. Use one of the GB08 roms if you want everything to work properly. Calkulin's EL29 v3.0 is an outstanding GB rom, but it just isn't the same as JB.
I use Touched By SG SIII by g_dling84 with GB All In One Mod by tdunham and I have zero problems.

My only suggestion, any of the GB08 JB ROMs. Why? Because of Google Now and the latest version of TouchWiz really makes this phone look and feel like a GS3.
I will not suggest any specific ROM, they are all great.

First off, asking for the BEST rom is like asing for an ETA on here, we just don't do it. That being said I might as well go for an IB4TL...
I will go as far as telling you there are only 3 setups I found that my wife likes AND are quality products that she never has to worry about little nag things. I will not say one is better than the other but all are different enough that you would need to try all of them in order to make an informed decision... I highly suggest you read and ask specific questions in each of these threads. One thing I can tell you is all three of these devs are rock solid players that really take care of the user.

- Baked Blackbean

- Wild For The Night

They were all excellent
But I finally settled down with the XPERIAnceZen Rom

Those two posts are exactly why we don't condone these posts. There are many great developers here in E4GT land and these threads support favoritism/fan boy type of posts.
Read the OP for the ROMs, check the bugs list, read user comments. Then decide for yourself.

[Q] sph-d710 double brick

I got my fancy new sgs2 e4gt and immediately tried to flash cyanogenmod. Unfortunately, I didn't pay close enough attention to model numbers and ended up flashing the wrong kernel. Upon reboot, I could only get as far as the splash screen which now had the yellow triangle on it.
While trying to fix it, I still failed to watch the model numbers and ended up flashing another wrong kernel again. It was a bad day for me. This resulted in breaking the micro usb port. Nothing will recognize the phone anymore.
I apologize, but I don't remember which kernels they were. I did this back in December.
Furthermore, I can only get to two screens. The first is a screen that says "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again." The other is the Odin download screen. I can't get into recovery or anything.
I've tried a variety of things (including a USB jig) but without USB and recovery I can't do too much. I'm thinking I might have to try JTag, but I wanted to see if anyone has any other ideas before I go there. Any thoughts?
Your not bricked, you just don't know how to read.
I suggest reading the development section of the Epic 4G Touch and then read some more.
Btw... wrong section, this is a question.

Please use this > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2191954 and stay away from mods until you understand how things work. Well at least if you don't want to full brick you device.
The key to everything is... READ. :good:
Maybe you should try one of these!

They don't brick as easy, and also try posting in the proper section like questions & answers, help & troubleshooting.

Welcome to xda-developers forum, marcsimusMaximus! This is a great forum with great, helpful people (and amazing developers), but sometimes people seem a bit cranky, immature, and so bored with their lives that they have to clutter threads with a bunch of nattering nonsense. As was previously stated, you do need to read the forum rules and post correctly, as well as pay more attention to the wealth of information already posted regarding flashing and avoiding various pitfalls.
Good luck!

How similar is the Fascinate to the Captivate? Looking for a stable upgrade for a slightly used Cap that my son wants to flash to boost.
Your input and wisdom will be greatly appreciated.

They were and still are great devices. The Galaxy S lines are what made Samsung so huge in the Android scene.
