The cellpassion page has been updated. SG will get froyo!

There is an update on the site:
UPDATE 2: Samsung will update the Galaxy S to 2.2 from their manufacturing facility. No word on the timing but those new devices will run on Android 2.2. They are still working on how to upgrade current units that are running on Android 2.1.

So there's a chance we, whom do not live in the 110 countries getting it today, get a froyo version? That's almost worth the wait then!

Samsung doesn't know how to do an OTA? NO WAY!

This is really crap.. From what i found on hardwarezone:
Guys.....relax lah..this is just simple fearmongering.
Samsung not that stupid...this isn't their first Android phone. Spica had the ability just fine. Hack.....almost all their phones from the past 2 years can update firmware. They're not retarded to make the GS so special.
You guys trust a Marketing manager in India? or you prefer to wait for more concrete news? Don't go crazy over such rumors until it holds more water.

but...since I'm with ATT US, sounds like the wait continues!
At least I'm using O2 2.1 (build 8105)... so I'm getting most of the benefit.

I'm on an unlocked streak but no update yet. Had to downgrade after I saw only stock builds will get it. Has anybody got the update notification yet?

Im on the unlocked streak, EU, on leaked O2, 2.1 but im getting "no updates available"... currently living in AU, should i be able to upgrade ?

Anyone know what the baseband is for the betunits for AT&T? Im running Stephen's 1.2 and would like to revert back. Dun worry, .pkg will be shared as soon as I get it.

OMG your 2.2 is here drove me crazy.. then I saw the for some....
It has got to be close now. When I update on ATT as well, it shows the dell website vs your phone is upto date..
Good sign..

There are plenty of threads here and on modaco about downgrading...but my guess is as soon as it's available and people start installing it...it will only be a matter of HOURS before it's .pkg up for all different versions and markets.

It's starting out for Streaks bought UNLOCKED only...not sure if you unlocked it afterwards if that applies too.
Then upgrades for Streaks locked to various carriers (O2, ATT, Rogers, etc.) will become available beginning early Dec.

ive got a factory unlocked streak... EU, OEM2.1, running the leaked O2 leaked 2.1 but im not able to update, currently in AU
Might have to downgrade to 1.6 i think ?

I have unlocked streak non branded. Still no update. Location is netherlands.
Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA App

Q. Can I run the update, even if I don’t get the official notice, by copying the URL from someone else’s device?
A. No, the final link to download the 2.2 Froyo update will be non-functional unless the browsing session is initiated via the software update mechanism on the Streak device. This is because the software update application in the device communicates with the OTA update server to authenticate the update session. The link to the update is dynamically set to download the correct software package based on the device that is connecting to the update server. Please wait for the software update notice to display on the device itself, when your version of the software is ready for the upgrade. You can continue to check for updates manually by going to Menu->Settings->About device->System Updates which will connect to the update server and correctly check for an update.

anytime you can un-root.. and seriously, do you believe that samsung FW will be better than custom one ? look at the htc users. Htc prepares much better FW than samy and the users are flashing custom ROMs...
I use JPA and waiting for another stable ROM with GPS working without fixing.

I had heard about April rumours, but yesterday I saw screen shot from facebook page of Samsung Singapore which says that they expect to release Froyo by end of Jan. So no harm in waiting for 3 weeks or so.

I sent a email on samsung slovenia and they told me for update!I can show u email if u understand my languange.

Does Kies detects the area I am or it´s by the phone firmware? I´m asking because I have a i5801 purchased in the US, but its the Singapore firmware and I live in Brazil
I haven´t tried to flash a Froyo ROM or anything like that... is it worth it? (I´d like to see how Froyo runs, but I haven´t been very encouraged by the problems reported on the froyo firmwares released so far), is it better to wait for the official one (and of course the custom ones later on)?

[NEWS] Gingerbread update announced for Galaxy series including Tab

http://www.samsunghub.com/2011/05/16/samsung-announces-android-2-3-update-for-its-galaxy-devices/
Guess it's on its way. I'm wondering how the update will roll out to Wifi only versions or the tablets that aren't currently using a carrier.

Today i got a message thru Kies that i could update my firmware to gingerbread (although the message gave a series of numbers and letters). I tried to update my Tab, but after downloading, the installation of the new firmware failed. Could that be because i have my Tab rooted? How do I solve this problem. Your help will be much appriciated.

or if u've already ur stock rom and u just root it . u just do hard reset factory , then am sure u can update

Agreed. Let us know if you have any more issues.

Thanks for your quick help. I will do a hard reset as i have stock rom witch i have rooted in order to make backups, use droidwall and Samba. Titanium backup can prove its use now :-D
Hope the upgrade will work, thanks anyway.

Hopefully, Samsung will push it over WiFi... If not, the good people of XDA will inevitably provide a ROM on here. You will either get it in a timely manner or have to hold your balls and ROM it (if you haven't done it before). Even if you have, it can sometimes be a scary procedure.
Short answer... Yes. Long answer... Above.

hmm any word on how far the update is? is it still only italy that got it?
Dont really wanna use odin to update our 120 Galaxy tabs (or the 300 that we are getting in ~1 month time).

I use sipgate with the sipdroid app to push calls over VOIP. Works well enough for me. Can send and receive calls. I am only on WiFi so I imagine, it'd work that much better over the 3G network.
As far as a possible release date? No idea... Their words are that they'll start mid-May through Kies in Europe and it'll feather out. Since Sprint versions don't work with Kies, it may up to Sprint to push the updates here (which may take a long while) or if Samsung is really aggressive, maybe we'll see it through them.
Since Kies is the main avenue of pushing it, I wouldn't anticipate it soon. May be worth following the Honeycomb ROM (DONATE TO THIS CAUSE) and taking the time to flash it. Then brag that you have cheap Honeycomb Galaxy Tabs for sale in your store.

I'm also curious about this, but perhaps it would be better in a new thread for people to post their country and a confirmation once it's available over Kies.

Could be preparation for ICS, Although that is just a guess.
Anytime i see anything about an update i just keep thinking it's ICS!!
Can't wait for it.

probably the one hand keyboard update

So XLA4 is the big update they're pushing out to everyone?
I was wondering what it was.

Info about the update
Hello guys!
I bought my Galaxy Note in France (I work there).
The PDA/PHONE/CSC are XXKKA/XXKK5/XXKK5.
Build info is Friday 11 Nov...
How is it possible to receive official updates (stock roms) without flashing?
Please do not start telling me to read guides and so on... I worked on Android platform and after this experience I am aware how preparing roms and custom stuff is obviously a great challenge, gives you great satisfaction, but makes the phone be more prone to crashes, memory leaks and so on.
Thank you in advance.

No update for slovakia, orange. just waiting for ICS

patient is a virtue tow weeks. when i bought my xoom, after 6 mounts of delays my daily routine was check for updates , not any more..

I'm sure you were joking but this actually does raise a point that people should take into consideration:
If the phone is bought from the UK but the firmware is German, then it will get German upgrades. If it's bought from amazon.de and has Chinese firmware then it will only get Asian upgrades.
It doesn't matter where you buy the phone from, it matters what country the firmware is directed at. I also own a UK note which has BRI as the sales code and I don't have any update even though I live in Finland.
