Well jt does have a voodoo kernel for his aosp froyo but its not working with the DL30 stuff plus clockwork isn't 100% with froyo voodoo. Its coming though
 
Awesome now i Can stop pretending to all my other Android pales that i have 2.2 by making LancherPro as froyo looking as pos.

Yeah that started floating around yesterday. At this point Im not sweating the difference between DL30 and EB01. The radio would be nice and kernel source even nicer IMO.

Since I decided to not root my phone, I'm looking forward to an OTA update.....also looking forward to the announcement and seeing this new Galaxy S ii :p After this whole Froyo debacle, I'm weary of another Samsung....but at the same time I love this phone. I'd love to get it with it's Orion processor if it comes with 2.3 as speculated.

Agreed. The OTA is long overdue for the non-rooted to enjoy Froyo. I just pray there is a smooth transition and not another DL09 or worse.
I also concur on SGS2. Definitely eyeing that baby. If the hardware is right much like with the SF, it will be a contender for me. For better a worse I do buy for hardware more than software as software can be tweaked and tinkered with and there are always dev's to take it to the next level. But the hardware is more or less frozen and stuck. Yes there is OC and minor stuff like that, but really it is what it is.

I am hoping Samsung has fixed whatever bugs they had with this Galaxy S series so the new one is way better :p As for DL09...I am hating some of the problems I'm having with the phone. Actually tried to exchange my phone for one with previous software, but that didn't work out so well. So...I'm dealing with the Swype bugs and such. :-(
Hoping the Froyo update doesn't get delayed and hoping it fixes whatever DL09 screwed up :p
 
Ohhhh here we go again Samsung. Give us a 2 weeks notice and then let us down again. PLEASE, I just can't wait. Ohhhh wait, I don't have to. We ALREADY have Froyo.

believe me, we want the ota. if theres no ota, theres no 2.2 source for us. if theres no source theres no overclock, undervolt and aosp doesnt get as much help as is possible otherwise.

so while, yes we have froyo....its development growth is stunted

Then why did you buy it? You did not buy hardware, you bought a device built by Samsung with software they felt appealed to the greater public. Hackers, crackers, those with higher expectations of anything they buy, and one post trolls, always bash the OEM attempts. If you didn't like it, you shouldn't have bought it.

To top it off, you are complaining about working with a Mac. Another niche.

Go get an iPhone, it will plug right into your Mac.

I bought a terminal device, that connects to a CDMA network, and runs Android.

I picked this one out because of hardware specs, and physical layout of the phone.

The Stock TouchWiz looks nice, however, I prefer a stock Android experience. And, I prefer not being told what I MUST have on my hardware I purchased.

That won't happen. Honestly, my SF is my only phone. I have no landline. I also need my phone to be fully functional. I have a small business Im involved with and all my clients have my SF number so believe me when I say I need my SF running 100% at all times. The work the dev's have put into this whole process is tremendous. I know some people sometimes have mini borks but speaking very humbly thats almost always operator error. Rooting, getting clockwork on and a nice superclean rom is very easy as long as you do it properly. jt1134, adrynalyne and the brain trust have made everything virtually fool proof and trouble free.
As always there is always the chance for something to go wrong but dont fret too much. There are far too many of us who are rooting and running 2.2 trouble free for this just to be a crapshoot. Having said that its still a personal choice and if anyone is intimidating by the process they can and should probably wait

You should start handing out your Google Voice number :) If only for the "Chase me down" feature. And, Visual Voice Mail (If that's your thing).

You're so right about Google voice. I have a magic jack, but they don't have local numbers for my area, which is surprising and a shame at the same time - huge potential market here. Anyways, Google voice gives folks a local number they can call that goes right to my Magic Jack. I don't use it on my cellphones because they are local numbers.
 
We'll probably have some kinda kernel before that, as jt seems close.
Radio yeah maybe not till then and maybe not even then who knows
 
JUST to put this out there and poke fun at those who were making fun for half a page of this thread, I WILL (LOLOLOLOL) for days if my first and only personal speculation post is correct. Because only a few days ago I was explaining THIS!

Now this is all in good fun, and I know its a rumor. I just think it'll be hilarious. Especially being that we've had like upwards of 20 speculated rumors of Froyo coming out to us for 4-5 months now.
 
been out of the loop, but been reading posts here and there,

As tempting as it already is... I'm going to wait up for the radio / kernels / battery fix the whole shebang before i flash 2.2! Let's hope that radio comes out soon!

Don't get too comfy with Google Voice if your not willing to pay for it, Google is now touting Voice as "free until the end of 2011."
