Yea obviously you didn't look before posting your thread.

This is for the galaxy s.... IN SPAIN. This does not apply to people with the vibrant. I would assume the U.S. is more of a priority to Samsung, therefore froyo should be out before then.

why US is more priority,
and even its true,
would you expect Tmobile will do a quick job in modifying it?

Why wouldn't the United States be more of a priority? I didn't even think anyone would have to think about that one.
Sorry if that came out wrong but it is just how it is.

Well, Samsung is a Korean company first off. Second of all, carriers don't lock/change their handsets like the US does, so it gets much easier to update when you take the carrier out of the equation. This is why Europe/Asia get new phones and the updates for those phones before the US.
That is just how it is.

Just remember that we only make up a small portion of the world and also that the galaxy s came out before the vibrant. It makes more sense for samsung to update that first.

Fixed that for you...

And simply by the first launch day, US version of the Galaxy S is much later than the regular i9000, so it is not hard to guess the U.S. variants would get it later than the international version.

Holy crap will everyone just shut up about Froyo. Enjoy the damn phone that you have. Its not like our phones are piles of crap. People are making Froyo out to be some mythical unicorn update. But I'm sure once we get Froyo the same people will be complaining that we don't have Gingerbread yet because the Nexus 1 is getting it in December.

Damn straight! I wish I were mod, then I could lock each and every thread about Froyo.

Lol whats funny is that engadget also reported that the UK Offical Samsung Mobile twitter page reported that
http://www.tmonews.com/2010/08/t-mobile-says-samsung-gps-fix-coming-in-september/
http://www.tmonews.com/2010/08/samsung-testing-gps-fix-for-galaxy-s-phones/
See two pieces of proof something is coming in September, we still have 10 days so lets see what happens.

So We do have like 3 Dates if you want to call it that.
One is September 23, 2010 for Froyo (2.2) which is supposibly for the International Galaxy S. Maybe it'll be compatible with all. Who Knows?
Two is September 29, 2010 for Froyo (2.2) which is for Galaxy S, IDK if all phones or Just International. IDK. I got this date from T-Mobile TODAY. I Called acted like i didnt know Anything about Android and was asking questions about The Samsung Vibrant. The guy said it comes with Android 2.1 but it'll get Android 2.2 soon. I asked if he knew a date, he said hes not for sure but he Read on a Forum somewhere about September 29, 2010. We'll See.
Three is Late October 2010. Which was told TODAY by Samsung Spain and posted on Engadget. So we have 10 days til September is over we'll see what happens. Thats all i know for now.
I'm Really eager like the rest of you to find out when our phones will get 2.2. Not only for Speed Improvement but for GPS Fixes (if implemented), 3 button hardware fix (if implemented) and of course Flash 10, Chome to Phone, the New G-Mail, Google Voice, and Tethering etc.

As eager as I am to get Froyo, I'd rather wait a little longer and let Samsung do it right than have them push something that's been rushed and running like crap. Based on the recent leaks I've seen, the most current Froyo builds have been buggy and not optimized at all.
I think late October/early November is my limit though. If they push it back further, I'm not supporting Samsung anymore. I'll switch to the G2. I can trust HTC will for sure push Gingerbread over to that phone. Who knows what Samsung will do with the Galaxy S then.

Fanboys need to stfu. You do realize many of us have buggy devices, and the fixes are being held up for froyo, right?
Dom't be idiots. Use your brains. The OS is a small issue right now. We want oir phones to work as advertised.
Yes, these buggy devices ARE complete and utter crap.

[Q] How many Nexus One are there in the world?

this is just a curiosity...
today Samsung has announced to have rich 10 Million Samsung galaxy S sold in 2010... anyone knows how many N1 have been sold from its launch day?

[BOARD CLEANUP] WARNING - DO *NOT* POST QUESTIONS IN THIS FORUM - only tips/info/etc.
Seriously dude...

Well, there are at least 11579 Nexus One devices running CM...
In all seriousness though, there were reports that Google sold 135000 in 74 days since its launch.
So, pulling some numbers out of my arse and applying some dodgy logic, I'd say no more than a million in a year since its launch world wide.

That story was written 12 Jan 2010, only a prediction.
Notice it said the Nexus was heading to Verizon, never made it.
My bet is way, way, under 5 -6 Million

The Nexus one was never meant to sell millions of units.
If that would have been the case, do you think that the biggest advertisement company in the world would have any problem in advertising (sigh) their own phone?
The nexus1 is a developers phone, for the common public htc has the desire

Guys...the nexus one selling more than you think. Here in Canada we have two providers that selling nexus mobilicity and videotron @ 49$ after 3y contract or 479 without... it came out in August for the first 3 months it's was sold out...both provider are pushing it really hard! Also it's being sold and in Europe Asia Australia so bottom line it's not because you guys in the U.S don't have it and because google stop selling it on the internet that it's not being sold any more... I'm sure they past the million sold mark...Long live the NexusOne !!!

Interesting. Yeah I was thinking same way. I don't get why google decided to sell the nexus one in stores just outside us.but they sold it only online here.its just kind of weird. I guess they never meant to have the nexus as a success her on the states. Cuz seriously a dev phone only available to the devs is legit. I'd say most of the apps that are available nowadays are from the us

Here is the BGR report you're talking about
I searched Google Reader and didn't turn anything up.. I would have starred it if I would have seen it come through, so my guess is the numbers haven't been officially released

1) This thread is clearly posted in the wrong forum.
2) I would be absolutely shocked if there were more than a few hundred thousand out there. Google made zero effort to market the device and only openly sold it for a few months, and it was un-subsidized which Americans hate.

I wouldn't say it was un-subsided. Google/Tmo sold it for $179 with a new contract...

[ALERT] Bell Listing Galaxy SII - Coming soon!

Hi guys, I posted this in the SGS2 thread as well:
I'm not sure if anyone has posted or noticed this: http://galaxys2.bell.ca/en/

Their homepage currently does not link to the SGS2 page.

Yay!!! Awesome. But the draw is on 19 July are u sure they are releasing on 14?
If its under 600$, I am so getting one. However I don't wanna give more cuz its stupid to spend that much money for a phone.

Damn~I asked a stuff of BELL about this GS2 last month~he just told me BELL won't bring it in~now it seems a bull****~

I have the same problem man. I am thinking how to not make her angry and get the phone. I mentioned it before and said I am gonna give my sgs to u and buy the sgs2 for myself but she doesnt care and doesnt want to have a smart phone. However, I got the phone last year.
I really hope I win or we r gonna have some serious argument.

why people just dont stfu
Its allways the same:
i remember my beloved HTC Universal, it was not that small device and people laughed at me. The same way they did on my Dell Streak. Now i use the SGN ans people stop laughing because their see, that Smartphones getting bigger because of their screen sizes... And everybody who held an big screen device in his hand and sticked with it will never go back...
Dell made a first step and Samsung did a big screen device even better. Thumb up for that

No-one should be surprised at the early success of the Note, for in my opinion it is the best smart phone ever made. I am especially pleased that Samsung has said the sales are particularly strong in Germany after Apple's spoiling tactics there with the Galaxy Tab 10.1 injunctions. It's time Apple started to compete by producing better phones instead of taking competitors to court.

This is awesome! I'm glad I decided to pick one up now instead of waiting for the US version to show up. I got sick of my Iphones and my Infuse just didn't have a big enough screen. In my opinion as well the Galaxy Note is the best smartphone on the market to date. <3 Samsung <3

LOL! I know what you mean! I never really liked the form factor of any of the nexus series phones. But thats just me. I do however really LOOOOVE the design of the Galaxy S series ( captivate, infuse, sgs2 and Note) I already played with the Samsung media player at Best Buy which is exactly the same form factor as the Note with the exception of the pen, and immediately thought to myself, this can definitely work for me.
Im hoping the note is 199 on upgrade, and not 250 though!

Perfect, just in time for my upgrade.

Eh, I'll wait for something else or the SGSIII.
