Are we gettin an update for gingerbread 2.3 tru samsung kies? i read that sgs gt-i9000 got the update already.... Is that the official? are we gonna get that to for our sgs vibrant... Thanks....
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
I was wondering the same thing!
I9000 was the 1st SGS and is also unhindered by carriers restrictions.
The us will get 2.3 on the us galaxy s phones when the carriers decide they want to release it.

Ask yourself: Knowing Samsung, would you really want download the stock version of 2.3 thru Kies or wait for one of our awesome devs. to get a hold of it and make it better (I'm counting on you Team Whiskey). I rather wait since I'm running flawless BionixV1.3.1 I'm in no hurry.
Bionix 1.3.1 is awesome lol

Oh I got it... So our carriers will make the last decision if were gettin the official update.im thinking tmobile wont give us the update. Cause nobody will upgrade there phone if our vibrant will get gingerbread and tmobile wont get any contract renew from all thier virant customers. Cause,im now upgrading to any new ginger phone that they have I git official update...

I hope this is true. Very exciting, unless your manufacturer uses a custom skin on top of android.
At the rate samsung and VZW are going we should be getting gingerbread by christmas...next year.

SDK does not equal aosp source code.
Business as usual.
Yeah at this rate the next new os will be out by the time the fascinate gets froyo lol. Unless samsung is waiting and going to skip froyo and just go straight to gingerbread. Who knows. Anyway thats why i only got a 1 year contract so i can get the newest phone come july
Try again. I wouldn't expect Gingerbread before the beginning of next year.
SDK being released means only the under hood changes are done. Doesn't mean anything past that.
Having moved from a nexus to get off t-mo, I would be so frigging happy to just have froyo back, they could release Vagina next month and I wouldn't care.
Vagina is a dessert, right?

Let's look. Hmmm. Nope.
The only way they might be able to make it up to most of us is by going straight to Gingerbread or by offering every Vibrant 3g owner a more than 1/2 percent discount on the new Vibrant 4g with the return of the current Vibrant 3g.
My biggest issue with Samsung is the lack of being straight forward/direct with us. Every question they've been asked about the update or rumors about our Vibrant being able to utilize 4g speeds Samsung won't even say yes or even deny it. It definitely makes me wonder. Its sad cause they definitely make great hardware (minus the gps issue). They probably hesitant on releasing Froyo 2.2 because the release of Froyo will prove that the gps issue is hardware based.

So what is holding the update sammyy?
Btw samsung don't make promises it will look bad if you don't keep ur promises you know...like the promise you made months ago? About froyo update? I guess soon means 6months to you, sammy.

you didn't see the same thread posted in the same section before yours with the same engadget link?
For all who asked about where Vibrant and the U.S stands in this, here from the link L1LK1LLERZ posted:
The Android 2.3 upgrade will start with GALAXY S in the UK and Nordic countries from mid-May, and gradually rolled out to other European markets, North America, Southeast Asia, the Middle East Asia, Africa and rest of the world according to the regional plan.

So yea, we're already in mid May which is supposed to be the release date for the U.K while ours should get it later say end of this month?
Good enough for me if that was indeed the case.
Yay! another reason to keep the vibrant.

What is their guarantee that they won't do the same they did with FROYO?
Just be happy we may have the slightest chance of getting Gingerbread.
Dont worry it takes like 2-3 months for tmobile to get it and strip it bare assed.

They didn't do OTA updates on the Vibrant for some reason. The Fascinate, Epic 4G, and Captivate got OTA updates to Froyo.

That is what I'm wondering. Just because Samsung is ready, doesn't mean we'll get it, right? Doesn't T-Mobile need to mess around with it for a few months too before we see it on our phones? Or is T-Mobile's part already done?

International version right? Just think how long it will take to get to the US lol hopefully not as long a wait as the gs2
Passionately iced out vibrant!
Im holding out for the gs3 even if it takes a while. 2 years is too long. my contract was past tmo gs2 initial release. so I figured I should wait for the new best, plus all the development still going on for this phone is crazy..... ICS
T-Mobile galaxy nexus is out in the wild....just food for thought....
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
I'm interested in the nexus but I'm so torn because of all the awesome devs we got here in the vibrant community that another phone just won't stand up because we all know how bad Tmobile is about sending out updates and the gs2 took so long to get to the US how long will we have to wait for a Tmobile gs3?
Passionately iced out vibrant!
Just wait it out, especially that the cyanogenmod team is supporting the Vibrant again. Can't wait for CM9!

Never got on any CM roms but I'm happy to hear they are supporting again only means ICS on the vibrant is going to stay strong...I'm loving neobuddy's ICS passion...but I think I'm going to have to stick it out me and this phone have been through WAY too much!

No,no,no.
Believe me,it takes less than 5 minutes once you have the drivers,etc...
HTC...now thats a pain in the ass.
But if you go to at&t its the note,or the one X.
Pass on the skyrocket (though it seems slighy better than tmobiles t989).Tmobile is just one S,t989,amaze.
The Samsung galaxy nexus is only $399 unlocked via google playstore.

Odin is the program you need to use with Samsung devices to root and flash different modems and what not. i gotta admit, sometimes it is better than flashing a PD15IMG.zip but still...what if i'm nowhere near a computer?
So far I'm liking the galaxy s2.....

if i'm ever going to get the Galaxy, i'm definitely going to get the International version. hate how the U.S carriers screw them up and such... ruins the whole point... i have an international version of the Original Galaxy S, GT-i9000, and if it weren't for it being international... i'm not sure how i can stand it lol. International ftw!
Yeah.im leaning towards internat versions for next major purchase.but if the note or sgs3 or the onex comes to Tmobile,then thats good enough for me for the next 2yrs.
But if google will sell the next nexus and not depend on a carrier,shiiiit.google/Samsung will rule the market with that one phone.
