I want to find out how do I get Gingerbread on my phone. Need step by step on how to do this. Thanks.
You can't yet. Keep an eye on the development forums from time to time. Who knows how soon well have it.

If they change the architectural software structure of Ice-cream(2.4 or 3.1?) then no it would not upgrade, But I would bet a dollar the phone will be able to handle at least 2 or 3 more upgrades before software and apps will require a larger ram and duo core cpu
BTW way to the other posting....... froyo, gingerbread etc are the code names they gave each version of android....... 2.2, 2.3 etc
i have this rom gingerbread 2.3 from another forum but im a noob how do i flash

What do you mean, from another forum? Is it made for the Vibrant?

Not true because someone I know got it on their phone and told me to come to this site to do it. Thats where got it from. Might have to ask this person on exact instructions how he did it.

Well either you or he was confused. There's more than a couple Gingerbread themes out there, but thats all they are is themes. There is one EXPERIMENTAL Gingerbread build out, but as such, its not stable and could not be used daily.
Its being worked on, but Samsung has not even released the 2.2 source yet. When that happens, maybe some doors will be opened in that direction.
But as of right now there is NO stable Gingerbread rom, no matter what your friend told you. If there was you would have gotten actual help, instead of some of the less serious responses.

You guys are ass holes and also idiots. The OP and the guy you quoted asked and stated real things. Just because gingerbread currently isn't stable doesnt mean the guy wasnt running it on his phone.
OP the gingerbread rom can be found in the development forum.

Thanks subzerold ! You are right.... I came here with a serious question and for help and people started posting all types of jokes and nonsense when none of this is needed.
What does OP means ?
So, once I get to the development forum how do I get it and install it on my phone ? Thanks for the information and help. Appreciate it.
Specifically a question for developers:
So I'm just curious when do you guys think an ICS custom ROM might be available for our vibrants?
More specifically, has google released enough of the SDK and/or ICS code for someone to actually make a working ICS ROM?
Can't wait to see it in action!
Thanks
Edit: my question really is:
what requirements do developers need to start working on a custom ROM when a new OS is released?

source hasnt dropped, the sdk is out and someone has it on the nexus s 4g, probably wont see a stable one until cm. also this is the wrong section.

I have ICS on my vibrant now. Real easy to jsut compile your own from the sdk and flash.
Can't get gps working though.
3-4 Months until you have something usable. That is provided the Vibrant still has developers left to work on it. A lot of ppl switched.

[email protected] easy! Anyone anywhere who had working ics on a phone would be on every forum bragging till their head pops off..
There are hundreds of articles that say that google is releasing the source code once "it is officially on devices".
http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2395048,00.asp
How long will it take them to have a working rom is another question. The gps issue we have with gingerbread has never been actually fixed, I think it is a driver issue..?
Either way, it all depends, but it IS a valid question once the source is released, until then people are just going to flame your thread.

Google is your friend.
And regardless if this is a question about development for developers, it's still the wrong section. That is why we have a "Q&A" section for future development or whatever.

First of all, it's still a question, regardless of the content, unless there is a specific development thread about ics, this question belongs in the q&a section, you're not someone special where the rules don't apply.
Secondly, since source for ics hasn't even been released yet (this is the vibrant, so some sdk port won't ever work, regardless of your secret hopes and dreams), and even then, it's gonna take people a bit to get situated with the new code, and get used to the new features, apis, and bugs.
To ask for a timeline for something that's not even out into phones that it's actually built for is kinda insulting to people IMHO.
But, I give it 2-3 months after source drop to get into a basic useable form on the vibrant.

First, I never said you demanded a a timeline, I said you asked. And the hopes and dreams thing wasn't directly at you, it was directed at all the people who don't finish reading a sentence, and only tale from a sentence what they want and twist everything around (and also takes cares of the stupid "one can hope" comments).

sorry admins
Well, I think we all remember what it was like being new to ROMS and flashing. I certainly could have used some advice
The only ICS based rom out is an alpha some bugs are present in it however. Link below, they've cancelled development, until CM9. Full description on the website.
www.sgs2ics.com
If you like a ROM with some nice tweaks and great battery life then I would check out ANDROIDMEDA. Thats what I'm using, very happy with it. Might be in the other 'Original Development' forum.
Hope it helps

I think the main problem with such threads is that they usually get closed down by the admins because it all comes down to personal preference. Well that is what they say before they lock them.
They advise users to experiment to find what works for them. Seriously, I've seen about 3 of them closed in the last week.
BTW, I use checkrom. Very good and easy to customise with its kitchen app. Give it s go...it has it all.

Hi all,
Has anyone decompiled the new ICS browser/calculator/remote control apps to work out how the small apps function works? I have a couple of ideas for utilising the small apps, but I've no idea how the function is called or manipulated. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks

Some people have it working on the original Note using Chainfires plugins but last time I checked they didn't work on JB.
That being said some people have said they got it from the Samsung App Store, whether or not that's true I don't know. I don't know it shows up for me on the Samsung App Store app.

I've tried the samsung store version with no luck. I remembered it loaded but something was off... I think it was the graphics dimensions and colors but I dont remember. Also needs to run on Jelly Bean unless someone can refer me to a tut or rom on ICS which I rather not do. I defiantly would like to stay on JB. I know it works on GNI through Chainfire ICS lol

There is no way to go to ICS unless someone makes a ROM which they won't do most likely.
The only way to get it to work will be if Chainfire updates his mods, which he said he had no intention of doing, or they port it to our phone.
I'm waiting for Rigonauts and the devs of that are real assholes.

Chainfire is in such demand. It doesn't even have to be free. I'll pay $10-15 for an app like this. I'm sure other DEVs can take over the project. If I knew where to start I'd do it my self. Within the last 2 months I've learned to make my own roms edit apks and flashable mods. I don't know that much about programming. Just web languages. HTML CSS PHP and a Little Java. Admins/devs enlighten me please I'm willing to learn and do the work myself. Maybe some help but you guys get the picture I'm willing to put forth effort.

Chainfires app shouldn't have to be completely rewritten, I don't think, just updated enough to work with 4.2. Maybe you should post in the Android Development thread and ask there. The general one for all android, not the one for a single device.
