Time for some bad news

the samsung galaxy s our phones will not get updated till mid-April claims.
@samsungsuomi :Galaxy S:n Android 2.3 -päivityksen testausvaihe on loppumetreillään. Uusi ohjelmistoversio saapuu ladattavaksi huhtikuun puolivälissä
which translates to: Galaxy S Android 2.3 update to the testing phase is a late stage. The new version of the software download arrives in mid-April,
if these sources are correct Samsung owes us all a apology as they promised march we will be getting gingerbread
or by getting gingerbread they meant leaked ?

An apology for what - all news we were receiving the past months were "unofficial sources" or rumours or "i know i guy who knows a guy who works at S", I never actually read anything official, e.g. on a samsung website.
Even though the news, which was "almost" official (samsung romania facebook), rejected an actual release date at the end of march.
Just stay relaxed, an update will come in a few hours / days / weeks / years
Kind regards,
ww

I don't know why people always think that they deserve an apology from Samsung or that they get bad software support. Does anybody here have a written (or otherwise) guarantee that Sammy is giving us GB at a specific time? I guess not...
I admit that the first Eclair ROMs were crap and the GPS could be better, but seriously stop the whining, it's like talking with little kids that want their candy! Just wait until it's done and if it takes two weeks longer to sort out some bugs, then so be it...

I agree....they should apologize for possibly not living up to "a friend of a friend said" rumors, or for changing their roadmap to suit the pronouncements off the cuff on the facebook page of a regional Samsung distributer in a small market?
Really?
Or because Tricky used what he felt could possibly be the final 2.3.3 (though from user reports if it IS final, to quote Ricky Ricardo, Samsung's got some 'splainin to do) to make a big entry into the ROM Kitchen team?
Somehow I don't think so. No apologies required, from anyone. Just patience.
To be honest, considering no source is released and there seem to be various problems/quirks with JVK, I would prefer they take a couple weeks and give us a much more ready for prime time version.
Relax, Gingerbread is coming...just be patient and enjoy your 2.2.1 Custom ROMs and be grateful again you aren't stuck with just a single flavor of iOS.

Since I'm a new user and I cant post links, I'm just going to quote. Finnish branch of Samsung has announced a press release a few hours ago through a publishing company:
Translated in Google Translate said:
Samsung Android-range success of the phone Galaxy S is updated Android 2.3. Update arrives in mid-April.
Soon Android successful Android phone is updated Android 2.3 (Gingerbread)-version of the software. The update is a welcome gift for the Galaxy S owners. Update the test phase is late stage, and the new OS version arrives users to download in mid-April.

Until it IS on Samsung's website, or we see it in Korean, I would tend to take that with a grain of salt.

You have Gingerbread now. It's stable and useable. This can't hold you over a few more weeks?
I swear people just like hearing themselves *****.

Maybe because it looks like JVK is not the final release version and still has some bugs?.
The thing with these web blogs and tech news pages is they all tend to get their "exclusive" news from the same sources which 9 out of 10 times are wrong. Case in point recent news quoting Samsung Mobile Facebook page which wasn't as it was the SamsungGalaxyS Facebook page which looked remarkably similar until you read the owner info. Something you would think they would check first really. Egg face say no more.

I can't see why people can't use their time anticipating the new release. It's not your time, obviously. Some people want to flash their phone with a safe, official firmware and want to know some ETA when it's going to happen. It's not like people are F5'ing every Android news site. Of course, this can hold but can't there be any speculation? It's up to XDA's moderators to decide, is this topic worth of discussing.
What comes to the first post, this is good news (if true) and in my opinion most reliable newsbit so far about Gingerbread. You shouldn't take it for granted that Samsung is liable to update its firmwares and "breaks promises" if doesn't. Operating as a company, Samsung's every firmware update is giving something to us, the customers. When people buy their phones, Samsung's is not liable to update firmwares if there's nothing critically wrong with it. Froyo is good but now we are on the road towards something even better. And it's a win-win situation to us.

you must have done somthing wrong then as I have no bugs at all been on it since saturday

I think even mid April is a tad optimistic. That's like 2 weeks.. and there's quite a bit left to fix and add. Together with the speed of which samsung works, I'm guessing May at the earliest.

good news...So we wait some weeks more!

Arent the custom roms already running 2.3? so.. why such a big deal haha?

Because the official 2.3 it's supposed to have all the bug fixes that are much needed (low volume in calls, low mic recording, crappy BT audio in calls, screen-lag issue fixed, sensor lag fixed, wifi tethering etc etc)

techblog.gr has infos for the update too. says will have the update on upcoming months.

I would suggest you to forget about official 2.3 Cause they have NO interest in making it cause it's stupid to work on things that are already on sale and they have newer models..they just don't give a damn about customers or their older phones. They may do 2.3 if they release or have any new model with similar hardware - so then maybe.. I don't see any reason why they should want to release 2.3

I believe they are going to release it as some models already have the upgrade.
Just be patient.

They HAVE TO DO coz google says so. There has been some problems on giving support to the old models with htc, samsung etc so google make some deals with them.
Eventually there would be an update but sure they dont give a damn to us so we would wait alot for this.

It can't come soon enough, sad to be reading about this new deLay. Totally sucks. How come they don't use some of the code already made available by DZO/Stockwell/geno on their Oxygen/CM/Miui ROMs?

I don't think HW by themselves will make 2.3 for U8800, coz they launched U8800 pro. Maybe we can take ROM from it in a future.

i hope they really gonna release it!

I highly doubt that there is going to be any offical 2.3 update.

It will come belive me. They said in the end of the year. So be a little patient.

I think companies will soon realise that some customers will no longer purchase their tech if there is an insufficient upgrade path.
I wont be buying another Huawei soley due to the slow/lack of support for almost all models within a few months of their release.
Why would I buy a new computer if it wont be upgradable to the next OS within a few months?
A computer running early ubuntu can still easily be upgraded to the lastest no problem, most companies nowadays worry about support first and about the tech later and i'm starting to get that way about phones, dont want to constantly change tech only because the support is ****.
Sure i understand the profit motive to make people buy new phones every 6 months, but its just getting a bit ridiculous when your talking about $500 phones especially in these economic times, if they put a big sticker on the outside of the box saying 'NO SUPPORT AFTER 6 MONTHS' i'm sure they wouldnt sell as well, everytime I see a Huawei box I just imagine that sticker on the front now

I'm agree with you on that part!

I've been saying the same thing...I'll NEVER buy a Huawei product again! No matter how cheap it will be...Now I know why it's cheap...

Huawei CMO said 2.3 ROM would be released.
according to Huawei CMO's official weibo (chinese twitter), 2.3ROM will definately be released, but still, no specific date.

Any word form lenovo?(ics)

When will it update to ICS?
Any announcement?

There were no real announcements.
A few weeks ago the Lenovo Forums admin said that their devs were looking at Honeycomb 3.2 and ICS 4.0 didn't know whether to bring another 3.2 update or directly 4.x (as seen on this page)
Some time later another Lenovo-guy said that the next update is planned to be released in January - but no information what it will be. (can't find this post now)

I heard bootloader is unlocked, I don't know why it's so hard....
PS I'm not a developer and I don't know s.h.i.t about this damn thing. lol

The boot loader is unlocked in the sense that you can update a genuine lenovo signed update.zip yourself manually, but you can not install unsigned images, so I would not consider this to really be "unlocked"

Good news for once! A quote from Mark_Lenovo from this thread on the Lenovo Community forums.
All,
I believe that our current course will be to go directly to Android 4.0 (ICS) on this product and I believe that will still be a few months away. Hopefully I'll have some official words to give on that soon.
In the meantime, we are continuing to work on interim OTA updates to address issues raised by the community.
Hang in there

I'm quoting a user who contacted Honor UK asking about the EMUI 5.1 update

I have been taking to Honor UK on hangouts.
Honor has no plans to release EMUI 5.1 at the MO.
They also said about the promice of updates :
"The "promise" was a Honor US thing. No European countries were part of that."
They also said :
"The Honor 8 is due to get an update soon. As to what's in that again no info."
These are exact copies of what they said.
Will post more when they say more

Yepp, disappointing. My last Honor personally, will move to another brand.

I'm a big fan of the Honor/Huawei camera, its the best out of all brands I've used including Apple, but they need to improve the updates and release the kernel source. For a moment I was close to selling the Honor 8 and getting a OnePlus for a better software experience, but I managed to go jump through hoops to manually update the phone.

I paid $280 for my Honor 8. I have been nothing but happy with it. If you don't like it, move on to something else honestly.

If you got your phone for a good price and you're happy with it, it's good for you. This thread exposes some facts and its aim is to get a "minimal" support from Huawei. So, maybe we'll move to something else 'honestly' in a near future. But many users can't afford it

Don't get it. People are calling some underpaid support guy on the customer level, mostly not really tech avid guys and quite uninformed and than believe what they're saying? Honestly?
There is only one department for outside communication. And you never talk to them. Relax and don't believe what so [email protected] guy is saying you, as they often get informations even later than the customers.

I know what you mean. Though, I like my honor 8 phone but their support is by far the worst . I ask questions in their community forum site and hardly ever get any responds . And, I even wait a few days for an answer, still nothing . To me that's not acceptable . It would be different if I were asking my question here on a non Honor website but my questions are direct to them, unacceptable PERIOD

Lol it's the same even with supposed top brands like Samsung your calling a call center usually from another country that has only been trained to tell you how factory reset your phone from settings or from a button combo. If that doesn't solve it you are usually directed to send your phone back for warranty if it is under warranty or pay to fix your phone. So it's not just honor brand.

Yeah, I like the hardware especially at the price but software support is too poor for me to ever consider Honor again. Too many bugs and too few fixes.

It's the same on every single brand. My last was LG V10. A very pricy device. But no updates, not even security updates in time. I was expecting this for a 650€ device. On the H8 I got Nougat right after I booted it. And it was only 360€. Quite good. I'm disappointed by the closed source policy though. They promised more and that's why i didn't get the bq devices with some kind of Cyanogen on it. Still not sure if it was a wise decision.

That maybe so . I wouldn't need another phone for a few years . When that day does come I will make sure beforehand which company provides a good phone and support, one thing is for sure it wouldn't be Huawei

I want Security updates once a month.
B360 has the patches from three and a half months ago.
That's...crap, honestly.
I'm not asking for shiny new features and the latest version of Android. Those would be great, but EMUI 5.1's not horribly out of date. Security fixes so my data's not stolen or device ****ed up are kind of important.

June Update

Can we get Android 8.1.0 after June update

Are you asking or just saying?

Behold xda users, it's the time of the month. It has begun. Brace yourselves with this kind of threads!

Wow, that was surprising... Not!
Is it that hard to understand that You will receive the update regardless of endless/pointless threads on XDA when it's ready to release!
You will receive it to Your phoce according to Xiaomi's roll-out plan.
If it's by region and/or IMEI series time will tell!
But You ill get it eventually when it's Your turn...
And please try to realize the screaming/whining/crying does not make the roll-out process any quicker.
Nor will some "bullet proof" or "tested and verified" ways to force the update make Your life better.
Just be a bit patient, just for once!

I'm no fortune teller, but based on past records we can reasonably expect the update to be released 21-25th June. Let's just all be patient until then.

I think I can create a task schedule, so every month it will create new stupid thread about an update!
Everyone are sick of it.
Please stop spamming XDA with those ******* questions!

Can we get August update

You know what people? I'm gonna give you a different perspective of these kind of threads - a positive one.
First of all, those threads may seem useless, but for me they are a quick and easy way to see the update schedules from Xiaomi.
It's pretty simple - each month a so called 'noob' posts a thread of this kind. Then there are people that flame him for posting that thread (and I actually get mad way more when I see THOSE people there, because they just don't have anything else to do except complain for something). A week or so later, when Xiaomi releases the update, some other people come and send screenshots of their settings, showing the update is ready to download. When that happens - I know I should go and update my phone, too.
And why seek updates each month? Do they make our lives better? To be honest - no. But there is just some satisfaction of updating, knowing you go to the latest and newest possible software. Seeing the A/B partition scheme come into place, so it updates while you're using your phone is amazing. Also the fact that you're getting every security patches (well, some come out later but they still eventually do come out) makes you feel kinda 'proud' (if that's how I can even qualify it) of this cool budget Android One device.
Just be chill. Welcome such threads with smile, knowing that there is always some sort of a 'noob' trying to enter the world of customizing tech, modding, and even developing.

No it's not hard. Whats hard is earning the money we spent on a device which made so many promises. Its totally fine that we are not getting any new update but you cannot stop anyone by telling that Xiaomi has a bloody roll out plan ciz if it had it would have been shown to us a long time ago when they released this phone. & this is only about shifting from one oreo to another oreo, what's your say when android P comes out.
This is an android one device & we are so far independent to discuss any stupid or legit questions we wish, stop being a hard guy & let me tell you, even you are frustrated with not getting 8.1 because you you were not, wouldn't have bothered replying

Let's NOT try to start a flame here...
Just agree to disagree!
Just to explain my point of view:
A1 is a budget phone.
At least I was aware of that when I bought it, so delayed updates/upgrades aren't any surprise especially as MIUI is Xiaomis flagship.
Roll-out plan: I was referring to the way Xiaomi chooses to distribute updates/upgrades. If You don't f*ck up Your phone You will receive an update notification. That works just fine at least on my phone!!
When it comes to 8.1 update: Who knows... I personally don't have any bigger issues that makes it critical to receive it ASAP.
And I haven't seen massive feature upgrades compared to 8.0 that are overwhelming.
There just might be other reasons to to visit XDA than 8.1 upgrade, right?? At least that's to case for me ...

My phone works just fine without a June update and I would rather only have a stable update Xiaomi are happy to push.
I actually see it as a good thing, maybe whatever they planned to push (patch/security/8.1 who knows), was not ready and they had the good sense to delay pushing it until it was ready.

They released a new beta build today, maybe we will get it next week.

June is released, updating now (not the beta, final)

Time to leave MIUI Forums for a while. A pile of garbage threads about the update incoming.

EDIT: Indeed it's Android 8.1
