Epic 4G Froyo update was test build, official update coming Soon

I think just about every Epic 4G user was excited when they came across the Froyo build for their phone that landed over the weekend. Unfortunately, the build that was leaked out this weekend is a test build, and Sprint advises you not to download and flash to your phone at this time.

Over at Sprint Community  there is a post from a forum admin, which shares info passed to him from a product manager. Check out the full statement below.

Sprint is working on a software package for the Samsung Epic4G that will upgrade it to the Froyo version of Android. Over the weekend, some users were able to access and download a test build (DK28) for the Samsung Epic from some 3rd party developer sites. Unfortunately, this is not approved software for Sprint production devices and we strongly recommend that users refrain from loading it.

Software version DI18 is the current production version of software. When new versions of software are available, users will receive a notification from Google on their device stating that an upgrade is available for download and installation. While we are unable to communicate a firm delivery date, rest assured that we are working on a software upgrade to Froyo and hope to have it out in the very near future.

Did up download and flash the update? Did or have you experienced any issues? Will this notice from Sprint stop you from getting Froyo? Let us know in the comment’s below.
