Anyone got their hands on this new update? if so does it work on the vibrant even tho we don't have froyo yet?
It's amazing on my droid x. You'll love it in a month or two (or three or four) when the vibrant finally gets froyo.
whats the version #?

It won't work unless you flash one of the froyo roms on here. Just like Flash, the new Gmail, Adobe Air, etc., it's only available for 2.2
has that been confirmed, or is that an assumption? some of the "2.2-only" apps have worked just fine on 2.1, while others do not.

Same thing I was thinking..maybe someone will upload the apk so we can check.
I seriously doubt a simple youtube re-design would need froyo. Example: (the 2.2 only market works fine on 2.1)

Yeah, so what's the big deal about 2.2 then?
I see so many people just saying to wait and give Samsung all the time they need to complete it.
But, Samsung is 2-3 months and counting behind HTC and Motorola for delivering 2.2. It's really getting to the point where it's not acceptable. How did they fall so far behind with a phone that's shipped 5 million units?!

I figure this was a question, but I clicked on the thread anyway, hoping it was a statement of successful installation!
Hah sorry to get your hopes up! I would imagine it would install without a problem though, we are running HC after all. The issue I see is booting it up and it looking for a service or hardware we don't have.
Perhaps if someone is kind enough they could venture on over to the Xoom forums and ask around for an apk?

Remember we are only running a premature "preview" HC. Any APKs from the XOOM may require one or more API only present in the final SDK build. Also, any app that requires "Renderscript" will fail too. For example, the YouTube and Google Books apps require Renderscript. Perhaps the CNN app does also.
The CNN app for Android Phones came out. Does anybody had the apk since the Nookcolor won't show it in market. Thanks.
I'm pretty sure there are both a honeycomb and a "standard" version.
Got it from my G1. Installed fine on the nook. Pretty basic, but doesn't look as hot as the honeycomb version.
I grabbed the .APK from my Epic. It wouldn't install on my Nook. Perhaps it is time to share the G1 Version?
Looked up the rules and I think it's okay.
Here ya go. I'm running CM7 stable and OC'd 4/18c, and it works.

the leak was already ported... just as this will be. i wouldn't expect gps, but hopefully we can get an actual recovery...
So when it is official could we just Odin back to stock and upgrade legitimately through kies?

Lol, CM7 is a joke on the Vibrant. CyanogenMod is always a step ahead of the drivers available for Samsung devices, so it will *never* work properly on a Samsung. By the time they have what they need to make it work, they're already pushing out a new "no wifi no gps no nothing useful" version. Nothing against CyanogenMod, but... Try CM7 (or any version) is never much of an answer on the Vibrant and recommending it to anyone is pointless.

you obviously haven't tried cm7. it is hands down, by far, the best gb for the vibrant. pretty much the ONLY problem is gps doesn't work.

From the thread on CM7 for the Vibrant:
Known bugs:
You can't get into recovery/download without the 3 buttons combo. (You can't from inside the ROM, so do NOT flash if you can't use the 3 button combo.)
Problems switching between 2G and 3G when data is connected. (You may get un-reliable data.)
Compass. (works not at 100%)
Video playback may be choppy with some formats.
GPS is broken.
May have many other bugs that are unlisted.
Polling problem on RIL (Works after you lock and unlock your phone.)
USB Tethering is currently broken
Battery life has significantly improved with latest unofficial nightly (3/31) and the latest Additional kernel. See below. However, it is still not as good as stock.

I'm aware that there are TONS of Gingerbread roms. But the thing that has been keeping me back from flashing is that GPS is broken. Does anyone know of any ROM that has working GPS in GB??
If there was a working GPS for TB,all but the CM7 builds would have GPS in the list of working features.
Short answer, no.

Without working GPS drivers for GB, this will never happen. Eugene claims to have done it, but he's disassociated himself with XDA. Personally I've never seen any proof of that claim.

hi all I was just curious if anyone knows if the new Netflix app is working on the Thunderbolt or not. I assume it would but the thunderbolt is not listed on the netflix web site as a supported phone for this app, even though 3 other HTC phones are listed and are older tech than the Thunderbolt. I tried to install it but they want me to start an account with them first and I'm not opening a Netflix account unless I know for sure this will work on My thunderbolt. I'd appreciate any information anyone has on this,.. thanks!!

The Netflix app will not work with any ROMs based off the official Thunderbolt RUUs as of now.
I was so mad when my boyfriend's Incredible would stream Netflix, and my newer Thunderbolt WON'T. He doesn't even use his phone. He fixed it so he can use wireless tethering..and uses his ipod touch! That's what made me so pissed off about it. I actually want to be able to watch Netflix on mine! Maybe one day soon =(
yeah This fairly well annoys me as well.. I purposefully bought the highest end phone I could find with the latest technology and it can't run the netflix app while the older models can,.. sounds kinda backasswards to me... really bugs me
Would love to have this working. Til then I guess I'll just have to use it on my DX

If you are rooted you can trick the app into thinking you are using one of the phones that are listed. I think i read about the trick on android central if i find the link i will post it.

Don't think so, so far its only working if your running CM7 I believe.
Has anyone on here used CM7? I loaded it one day and nothing really worked on it. I couldn't get on the internet or anything... sounds like to a waste to run CM7 just to use netflix
Netflix does work on cm7 and will be supported on the thunderbolt soon. The reason why it wasn't initially is because the phone is new and Netflix didn't have time to test it on our devices. Just give it some time and you all will be rewarded.

My understanding is that they are waiting til after the Revolution comes out to activate it for LTE phones. Its one of the selling points of the Revolution so it will probably be exclusive to that for a month or so. Just speculating though.
