[Q] Who knows what froyo is short for? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

what do you think/know android 2.2's nickname 'froyo' stands for? just found out today wanted to see how many people know and spread the word.

Frozen yogurt. But not a good enough reason to start a thread about it. Unless u find a way to tie it to the galaxy s2

Would you reccomend it?

Simple question, should I buy the phone or not?
Edit: Awwww ****, posted in Android Dev, Mod please move
I don't want to be rude, but instead of cluttering the forum with a new thread, why don't you check the general section for the 10 or so other threads about the pros and cons of the atrix. I suggest the atrix vs galaxy s2 thread.
Sent from my Gingerblurred Atrix
Actually, once this thread is in the right section I will like it. A lot of over there is cluttered with this that and the other. This is a simple poll, you have an Atrix, would you recommend it to someone else? I like it. I voted yes. I love my Atrix
And moved also.
Yes to friends who are technically savvy.

I traded my dell streak for the atrix and I am really liking it. Would definitely recommend it to someone wanting an android phone on at&t.

I would recommand it in a heartbeat. Sadly it will only be release in my country 10th june with a not too appealing price point

N00b question

Is it possible for me to use the 19100 ROMS, on my att 1777 galaxy s2?
yes try using hellraiser made by entropy512 it works on most samsung based roms however do not try with ics roms it will not work
Also, be sure to use the search feature. There are at least half a dozen threads exactly like yours.

A. We prefer you search before posting in here.
B) We prefer you post to an existing related thread rather than start a new one in here.
C) We prefer you use more descriptive titles so that people who search can find relevant threads in here.

..you'll get responses like this when what your asking is an active subject. Maybe it sucks, but thats how it is. Day before yesterday is a prime example.. Red had to close a dozen threads because of repeat questions and duplicating threads... Which this one is.. and if you had taken 10 minutes even 5 minutes you would have seen the hellraIser thread title i9100 ROM Hellraiser for i777 in Dev section, or at least saw the other threads closed and/or open pertaining to this question.

It's the way of the walk, man. This forum is a developer forum, not a help forum. You would've found your answer had you searched but regardless, it makes no difference now.
But still, please please please search from now on, you'll just keep attracting the negative comments if posts similar to this one pop-up again.
Also saying that its a noob question doesn't make it okay

Ya, maybe a bad question from the lack of response. The amaze forum is an odd one for sure. Was just wondering. I saw his threads are closed.

I'm wondering the same thing man.
If you read through his threads it is discussed briefly.

If you want to use his roms you'll have to go to his site....idk if I can post the link.

Most of the threads are one page long now. I gather from the one or two posts something went down between him and xda.

Some people are edgy about it because there is a cloud of uncertainty about whether you can discuss it or post the link to his forum without getting warned by a moderator. I'm on both forums and regardless of which one you're on, it's been agreed by all that it's for the best to leave the matter alone. Read through his post history here if you want to try piecing together the puzzle yourself.

I dont see anyone being *****y? i gave a straight answer, which is its NONE of our business. if you dont see him posting roms etc, assume hes not around. besides, its been all throughout the entire xda forum about his situation for weeks. if youre interested enough, the info is out there
Geez people. The major developer for the amaze packs up, yanks all his roms and pulls his threads and leaves and everyone is supposed to just pretend nothing happened? You can claim it's none of our business all you want but people certainly have the right to be curious and ask questions. Want to end all the questions and speculation? Then don't tell people to dredge the forum for clues. Deal with the question and put it to bed.
I agree and the users are the reason why these forums are alive and working so in a way we are the board members lolllll jk but ink why pda is having all these problems lately i guess a cleansing is what this site needs to be back at the top again

I googled xboarder56 and right there on the first page you can find where he is. Deal with the question and search yourself. 1st rule of xda in case you couldn't find that also
Their not gone. Google the name of the ROM u want and xboarder56 and I'm sure u will find it. The bottom line is mrmako is right. If you don't know, then it didn't concern you and was none of your biz to begin with. His work is still obtainable. XDA is not only site to find hacks and roms etc. Let's just leave it at that and if you can't find his ROMs then go back to stock. It's not xboarders responsibility to service anybody, nor is it any devs responsibility. They create work that they decide to share with us. That's where it ends. They don't even have to share. So use what you can find. Google usually has the answers.
I miss Binary. He would have had this thread closed and locked already for it is completely unproductive. Since Binary retired from xda this forum has been mad with duplicate threads, noob issues, and a lawless feel. Where is Whiskey to shut this down?
PS just because people have the right to be curious and ask doesn't mean people have the right to know. So exercise your right to be curious and keep wondering. But its not anybody's responsibility to inform the masses of anything. Anything else that you can't find is drama unrelated to development, and if you want a soap opera, you should watch USA Network, they know drama.

I knew where X had gone before he pulled out of XDA. It was no secret. That wasn't my point. I've been a member here for almost 2 years. Don't be so condescending.

This is the General section where questions are supposed to be asked and answered. Any thread that answers questions that many members have is productive. The only reason THIS thread is unproductive is the refusal to answer a question which is on MANY members' minds.

If that's what's on peoples minds, then they should get a new life. I know most of the story and personally its not that entertaining nor is it any of our business. If people want to know, then they can do the digging and be nosey on their own. It's nobodys place to restir a pot not worth stirring. It's counterproductive. Since you're such a tenured vet, you of all people should no better. Why does it matter where he is? If his work can be found elsewhere, what is the point of this thread. Threads like this are what started his move to begin with. Noobish ass questions with the answers right in front of peoples faces. Again, Law and Order is a personal favorite of mine, Criminal Intent and SVU.. if you want good drama, I recommended people start there
Not to mention this thread is 2 pages long, yet you are 1 out of 4 people who have showed interest in wondering where X is. The rest of the comments, the people already know or don't care. 4 people maybe consists on a lot to you, but I hardly would say the same

but this IS our point bro. the op didnt post a thread asking where x was or where he could find his work, he asked "what happened" as to imply "why" x was gone and not really IF he was gone. its kind of like when people get flamed for not searching first for answers to questions like "guys, how do i flash a rom?" or "amaze or s2?", except this is deeper and shouldnt be a topic to clog up our forum. the man left, hes not coming back, no need to continue to ask why or where he went.
on a side note marley, i DO understand your point, i just dont agree with it. i guess this is what happens when people have a $600 phone with little to no dev community LOL. lets just move forward and pray we get some new talent in here!

Maybe we can reach other devs from other phones, like CoreDroid, who are able to successfully port their work to our device. Like what NRGZ did. I think the main reasons for little to no development are: a) amaze is a US phone and not a world phone; and b) s=on. So if we can get this device in other devs hands, it may help. Like the Revolutionary donation we had going. Or I guess we can be happy with what we have and wait for nrgz 3.5 and xboarders ics.

Manually install ice cream sandwich yet?

The official Ics has been out for the international version of the s2, and I've seen tutorials on how to install it early, but I was wondering if it was available for the i777? Or do we have to wait for AT&T to take their sweet time to release it? I've searched around the forums for this question so I would appreciate if you guys could enlighten me instead of just telling me to "search" like every other forum on the Internet. Thanks guys!

It's people like this that are making XDA a forum for lazy gimmie gimmie people. This is first and foremost a developer forum for responsible users. I'm not saying it's strictly for developers, just that people that are new here need to realize the forum was not created for THEM. it was created for developers and users that know what they are doing with their phones.

I strongly disagree with number two. Any idiot can ask a question, only a smart person knows when it's necessary. Someone the other week had opened a thread because his clock had the wrong time. There are most certainly stupid questions.

Not.to be argumentative but.... My son has the LG thrill and his clock is randomly changing times on him resulting in him being late for work on one occasion. I haven't been able to figure it out yet (though i really haven't spent that much time trying yet) and don't want to resort to flashing a different Rom on it. so i could see asking a question like that in the near future if i don't figure it out. ( obviously in the thrill forum)

If asked and answered, you gain knowledge. Not everyone on this site is at the same level. Easy for you may be hard for some other user. I have had my own"duh"moments. If you haven't then more power to you. I look forward to your input here to help out so others can benifit from your knowledge. I will agree with your last sentence that there are stupid questions .. hence the thread name. But I will ask you to refrain from name calling. Thanks. I hope you stick around.

Ultra noob here. I got my phone on kijiji and it was already rooted and flashed to work with Wind Mobile(Canada). The phone is originally from Rogers.
Here is what I get from phone info
Model number - SGH-I717R
Android Version - 2.3.6
Baseband Version - T989DTLKJ3
Kernel Version - 2.6.35.11
Build number Gingerbread.248
I am not sure what exactly has been done. I would like to upgrade to ICS and still have it working with Wind Mobile. What do I do? Where do I begin?
Thanks in advance and sorry. I know its a stupid stupid question.
