Hey guys! Every android phone is getting 2.2 exept the hero. But don't worry.... we'll give you an updated 2.1 that fixes sprint TV and NFL mobile....... The crowd goes wild!
If they really are only releasing an updated 2.1 then they really are major a-holes.

i agree, we do not need a 2.1 update when almost every other phone gets 2.2. who knows maybe they will surprise us with froyo.

Yeah, I'm hearing the Droid would be able to run it, but with minimum requirements. I also heard about dual core Android phones. Who knows what Android has in store for us..

Not true. We would need a Legend/Aria/MT3G Slide 2.2 ROM to port it over. IIRC, the Desire has an ARMv7 processor while the Hero has an ARMv6 processor

True... my point is.. its been out longer.. plus it is not healthy to dwell over something like this. 2.1 works... 2.2 will get here. it seems the more impatient everyone around here is, the longer it takes.

These poor bastards had to wait more than a year for 2.2. We can wait a few months.
I don't always complain, but when I do, I #BlameWes

Can we let it die now. The myTouch 1.0 getting FroYo has nothing to do with the Vibrant. It will just be a ***** fest.

updates have been promised for mytouch much longer then vibrant has even been out

I mean, we know it's coming. And now with hardware locked vibrants fixed, there's nothing keeping you from playing with leaked or custom froyo roms until the official OTA update is released. And if they pull a Behold on us, well... T-Mo's sold too many Vibrants to not care.

That was the same link we've been discussing for a bit isn't it? There is no specific announcement there its the same "we'll think about it."
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

it is going to happen the nexus one can run it. Our phone is much more powerful that the the nexus S is very similar. They pulled back froyo. All signs point to us getting it but it will most likely take 2 months for binaries to be released and a build to be compiled. And I don't want to hear the nah sayers going on and on that you can't trust samsung blah blah blah... Even noob said we are getting it and I know he is on this inside track.

This isnt 3.0 it is a build upgrade from 2.1 a totally new build takes about 6months and upgrade is about 2 months.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk

We will probably get it around the time that 3.0 comes out or 3.1 usually how it works. 2.3 comes out now..sprint releases 2.2 to epics... at least we get updates faster than most US carriers do. Look at evo. Sprint plz OTA 2.2 already.

We are actually getting 2.2.1, not 2.2...2.2.1 came out at the end of september, and Galaxy S would be the first to have it...Motorola is working on 2.2.1 as well...

Droid already has 2.2.1 - boss man got it last thursday OTA i think. He isn't rooted.
Droid X went live on the 10th as well.

All in all google is going to greater lengths to help push out the updates faster. Its one of the biggest gripes with android. Look to the gingerbread update to change things. After gingerbread android os will be much more uniform.

I expect things to change greatly once 3.0 comes out..this is when release cycles for android will slow down thus giving manufacturers more leeway..

Agreed. I think they are planning on phazing out UI overlays as well when 3.0 comes out. No more motoblur, sense, tw, etc. For the tech geek we like it because we port things over from other platforms. But the Ios boobs they just want something shiny and homoginized, and that's probably the demographing android wants to really take on

Utter misinformation.
As of today, Samsung's U.S. Galaxy S support site on Twitter still denies that there has been any such announcement.
@JoeBatson no official statement about updating US Galaxy S line to 2.3 has been made & we aren't prepared to discuss this at this time.

I think we will see Gingerbread in the form of a flashable rom before we see an official release, if we even see one. I hope we do.

Maybe not releasing it will help sales due to Vibrant owners upgrading to the Galaxy S2..... who knows. Or maybe T-Mobile is halting it's release for the same reason. Only time will tell.

It seems that Android 2.3.x is only available for new customers with new devices.
We should have an uproar! We should be running the beta of Ice cream Sandwich as their should always be a beta available to everyone who wants it. Heck I want Android Version 5 just because outside of google no one knows about it.

i guess its time to switch back to the evo 4g again. Been on the epic again for about a week. Gonna trade tomorrow for a white one i hope with evo 3d software. Cant wait

still going to say it's a total load of bologna. even if that would be true (it's not), there would always be custom roms and/or odin versions as soon as it's released.
