Following on from the announcement that Vodafone AU is testing Gingerbread on the Galaxy Tab, looks like Optus is also testing it on the Galaxy Tab.

I don't think se are talking about a fake news. Vodafone Australia is also reported to be testing gingerbread on the tab.

A call to our fellow australian tabbers. IF you get Gingerbread send some our way pleaaaaaase

I'll be sure to upload it when I get my hands on it!

Australian tabbers asked vodafone on twitter. They said they are still testing for 2.3 once that changes they will post.

I read on another forum whose name I can't remember now that an Optus rep said it would be out mid-May for what it's worth.

still in testing GINGERBREAD

Your right

Looks like Telstra's a no....
Might have to look at rooting the Tab and loading up an overseas version of 2.3.3. Asked Telstra a simple question, got a simple answer - NO...

I know I'm quoting an old post, but I'd like to try again to flash my tab with whatever's better out there. I've had it with the wifi dropping out - it's been 6 months now geez. If I hadn't stupidly bricked it the first time I wouldn't have this problem anymore. Now where to start....

Does anyone have any updates on Optus pushing gingerbread out to the Galaxy tab. KIES is still not showing anything. If not what ROm should I go to if the last one Optus pushed out was P100XXJMA which looks to be the European one according to the list at the start of this thread

Still no update

Anyone any idea when the update to 2.3 will be out for the SGS I9000??
We where told that it would be 2 weeks but that was over 2 months ago. I wish Samsung would ever get there finger out.
Version: PDA:LPA/PHONE:JPP/CSC:JP7 (MET)
Also my son has the Gamaung Galaxy Apollo that was also due an update and still nothing. He is running on 2.1

next week, 10th, 2.3.4 with TW4 is coming =]

I know this is a modding forum but the information behind a statement isn't called the source code. It's called the source of information

I had a bit of a glitch with my SGS, which was running 2.2.1 official via kies (uk, unbranded release) As i had warranty, i sent it off to be checked, and had been gone for a few weeks now. When 2.3.3 was released and then pulled from kies, i had only just sent my phone away. Just got it back 10 mins ago, and what do you know........i now have 2.3.3.
kinda interesting since samsung pulled it from official sources before warranty even got hold of my phone. So i wonder how they are getting hold of 2.3.3 (unless they paid ol samfirmwares.com a visit) No issues so far though, going great

That's the version i managed to update to using kies before the update was pulled.

Some service centred had the 2.3.3 released before kies thats how XDA got the very first copy .

this is what i thought may have been the case. But if there was a genuine problem with 2.3.3, hence it getting pulled, i wonder why places kept it. In saying that, there are people out there that havent experienced a problem at all running 2.3.3. Just thought id share anyway

So if they pulled it then it could be some time before we see the update on kies.
I wish they would ever get a move on.
I don't want to root my phone.

Kies will get update after Samsung pass it to the phone providers and they customize as they want .
Rumours that no 2.3 update are more than likely untrue .

Why?
TW4 would be a valid reason to postpone the update a bit (plus bugfixes from 2.3.3 plus Google Talk voice chat implementation).

Sorry, but why would Samsung include TW4 in SGS when they have just released SGS2?
Anyway, if you want TW4, there are plenty of custom roms that have it.

Because they wont sell more sgs2's then sgs's, thats why..

Well, all should have realized by now that the stated "camera bug" can hardly be the reason that SGS users still have to wait for the update, it's been too long now. They simply realized that there are a lot bigger problems with it and listening to my friends that managed to get the 2.3.3 over KIES there is much room to doubt Samsungs official explanation.
If you're lucky they go for 2.3.4 (which you can only hope for because 2.3.3 has a nasty SSL library regression), but considering they released the S2 this week I don't think they care too much about the S1 for that to happen... only time will tell.

Q(by @于皓-Hone) : To @motorola @司軒軍 @吳海東 , ME525(Defy) has already got its 2.3, when will ME722(A953) and ME860（Atrix） get their 2.3?
A(by 吳海東）: Q3.
The news comes from the Sina microblog : http://weibo.com/hotane
PS：I put my trust in 吳海東 ， just await that day comes with hope
The earlier news： http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1055831 is "FALSE", for that lady has later declared that she just mistakes MS2 with DEFY . The fact is DEFY got its 2.3 in 5.16 , not MS2 !

God, I love my Phone I hope we will get it as well
EDIT: I mean EU

sounds like good news....well let them patch the asia pacific models with 2.2.2 first. after that i suppose i can show some optimism
nevertheless, q3 is late. VERY late, considering the Desire Z will be updated in june, and the galaxy s by the months end!! that would be close to a year since the phone has been released. i dun suppose we'll see many updates for this phone before the phone turns 18 months

Not that I don't put any trust in your 吳海東 ...
I just don't have any trust in an 2.3 upgrade for de EU Milestone 2...

PS: No expectation no disappointment ，may be it`s a smart way.

That's a wonderful news. All of us are waiting for 2.3.

the china mobile version of the MS2 is a different model - doesn't it use like a supermodded MIUI? Don't trust Motorola - liars

It seems like the chinese moto guys like to talk a little bit more than the european guys....maybe u could ask them for details about the unlockable-bootloader-update scheduled for "late" 2011...

Q3 is way too late considering the competition the HTC Dezire Z. But then again, something is better than nothing.
I hope (against hope) that it will also have something like an unlockable bootloader.

China version just don`t have GMS services and add some useful app, others are the same with EU/DE/etc. version !
But we can getback GMS easily by a special update.zip.

I would point out that June is the end of Q2, so if the reports are right, then the update would likely come within 1-3 months of the HTC update.
What I'm hoping is that the EU release will precede the Chinese release, as I believe the 2.2.2 update has done, which means that it could even be Q2 (or more realistically early Q3).
If only Motorola would actually give us a rough schedule, then we wouldn't be speculating. However, you can see it from their point of view - if they said it was coming in September, then they would have loads of people moaning that they have to wait 4 months for the update, and if they ended up delaying for some reason, then they would get even more stick.
Cheers,
Steve.

Any chance of this update unlock the bootloader?

Yep, same here, ME722 bought in China, added GMS through that update.zip and can access Google Market (have to use WIFI for downloads though).

If 2.3 do release in China first, can you please start a post here teaching us how to do that? thanks

A tip in case you weren't aware.
A fellow XDA member has created this amazing little tool for checking and downloading Samsung firmwares directly from Samsung servers. It is a quick download and is free.
A side benefit is that no one has to visit that terrible website (Sammobile) and either suffer severely throttled downloads or pay those thieves an exorbitant fee to download at an average speed.
Hopefully they go out of business soon.

Ye their website is awful! I always download firmware much earlier than its need to to make sure I've got it instead of waiting for it to download.
Thanks for the tip.

Got this update yesterday & it installed with no issues, for those worried about battery life I always find that battery life settles a couple of days after any system update.
