very good.... I wait for ICS SGS2 ITALY!

Don't have high hopes for Turkey though... Usually it is a forgetten country. Even SGS don't have over 2.3.3 very first initial release...

Sammobile are notorious for being wrong with their "mail". I wouldn't hold my breath on that one. Not saying it won't happen on that date, just surprised people would believe it purely because that site said it was true

Looking at twitter, it wasn't even from Sammobile, they just retweeted a message from that well known reliable source(!) http://twitter.com/#!/eldarmurtazin
( http://twitter.com/#!/eldarmurtazin/status/167906842540908545 )

This guy was working with sammobile...
@Edit Eventually Google can help.. Samsung could be working on it for several months without their help...

Hi guys,
GSMArena has already reported on this a week or so ago.
Please continue the discussion here

Froyo Available Via Kies -official Worldwide Release Oct 16-28 for Samsung Galaxy S

Rumors:Samsung Galaxy S to Get Froyo Around 23rd September?
It’s always a good thing when a company keeps their word. In the world of Android, it doesn’t always happen, especially when it comes to release dates for firmware updates. However, it seems like Samsung will indeed stay true to their promise that the international-spec Galaxy S (i9000) will be receiving its update to Android 2.2 by the end of September. A source from within the Finland branch of Samsung has disclosed that Samsung’s repairs department will be:
“definitely receiving new software for repairing froyo builds on the 22nd of September, with the build expected to be released on the 23rd”
There are two important points to make of this. Firstly, if this is what is planned in Finland, then it’s logical that the release in other countries should happen at a similar time. So while I cannot say with full confidence that the global release will be on September 23rd, it does at least seem like a good starting point, if nothing else. Secondly, this information only relates to the i9000 Galaxy S. While it is fully possible that the four USA Galaxy S devices will receive froyo around this time, we cannot be sure of this based upon this information alone. In the meantime, let’s hope that this information is accurate, and that the Galaxy S receives its helping of Froyo soon.
thanks for sharing but this is old news
How about HTC Desire getting theirs from T-Mobile today then ?

I read the news 3 days ago, I know that it is an old news the fact that in Semptember, or late September the Froyo will be launched for Samsung Galaxy S, but I never read until now the exact date

Awesome news for you
sorry miss read
I am thinking that since I was opened this threat, we can post on which country the update will be release when will be released, because I am afraid that is not going to be worldwide and I am guessing that also depends a lot if the phone if locked on a network or purchased network-free.

Well it's not going to be world wide same time. And I sure hope it's not going to be on 23rd this month, cause it's not good at all, if it will be like the release of 9/9/2010 leaked froyo. It is NOT ready.
If they release it like this, it will be like Epic Fail.
if you are asking a question then add a question mark to the thread title please. it saves people from clicking into a useless thread. and when i say useless i mean it really is old news and there will be nothing but speculation in here.
Looks like upgrade will be later than expected
According to an article over at brighthand.com, Froyo won't come to us until late October now.
Yep, I read about it all day - now the only thing that I am curious is if this announcement is for worldwide or not
I hate you for bumping this thread and giving my false hopes ;(. And it's not -official-, it's news based on a rumor.
If it was official it would be a worldwide announcement by Samsung...

@fiddie1987 Hi, the gingerbread update is in the testing process for the p1010 and is due to be released this month.
UPDATE
Gingerbread for p1010 is now available from www.sammobile.com!
UPDATE
New version
LINK - http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?...rmware/?page=3&t=3&o=1&m=GT-P1010&r=1#regiona
Is that true? not believe it!
It seems that the gingerbread version corrects the slow p1010
If true, thats brilliant. But im not going to hold my vreath - i'll die.

7 days to finish "THIS MONTH" let's see how much time means a month for them
Pleace be real!!
I want to, but i just can not beleieve it Samsung are an awful company, they have improved their quality a lot, but the support for the products is awful, anyway 15 years ago it was a bad idea to buy a Samsung anything, now it still is a bad one. I will never ever even think of purchasing any their products again
5 days !!!
4 days!!!!
Lets hope it's all true.

On Samsung / uk at the support, is as follows:
SAMSUNG Kies, PC Sync (Sep 27, 2011)
That means? GINGERBREADDDD!
3 Days!!! Any in UK that already installed the new Kies is there any update?
Thanks
not yet in Bulgaria ;(
I updated the KiES but it still says that the tab is updated to latest firmware..
@Malicieux - dude, do not expect it to pop up first in Bulgaria, I still do not believe that there will be an update for us, but if i am wrong, i would not wait for it to be rolled out by Samsung Bulgaria ...
Just received the Kies update and when connect to my P1010 it says the S/W version in your phone is not an official version when in fact it is the original. I did do a couple of temp rooting with z4root.
Notes that the version is: PDA:KC6 / CSC:KC6(XAR)
Thoughts?
i got the same message on mine. someone else on another thread got the same thing on an un-altered P1000, so I'm hoping it's a sign that GB is indeed on it's way.
Going to attempt an update as soon as I get home- Anyone else have any news on this?
No updates to me atm
Bought in France and I live in Belgium

gingerbred not released, only Kies.
Also no gingerbread update for P1010 here in Germany... =(
Samsung proves it again and again ... never buy Samsung, actually all these updates saga leaves a bad taste for Android, a colleague of mine is a customer of the Fruit Company and he does not have to live this whole ordeal, everything just works, all of the updates come on time and samsung does not produce the phone for his OS of choise.

I call bull****. You won't see official ICS OTA for SGS2 start to roll out until at least the end of January (probably later).
Many beta releases get available using Kies if you enable "Test mode", maybe that was how the writer got KP8 in his Kies...
The article *does* mention they are beta releases and they may only be available in select regions.
Why would Samsung risk damage to its reputation by releasing a beta version of an official firmware to Joe Public ??!!
Stop for a moment and actually think about that.
Handset manufacturers only release final builds to the public, because if the user experience is less than satisfactory, word gets around pretty quickly. This costs them money in the long run thru lost initial sales, and lost potential upgrades to new models (I.E people have long memories).
If this is a "beta" (I'll bet my balls its an alpha of some kind or the pics have been doctored), it sure as hell wasn't officially released by Samsung.
Edit - Luiz, yes you are right. It could be one of those from Kies by enabling test mode. But lets face it, how many phone users know it exists ? Answer - very few. This is not a "public release".

The poster read the source and invented KIES or presumed KIES .
After 2 Beta ICS CUSTOM ROMs from Samsung for the Galaxy S II I9100, Samsung has finally started making official ROMs for the Galaxy S II based on Android 4.0.1 and Android 4.0.3,
The ROMs leaked
as a final version of the
Upcoming Next Month (jan,2012)
Updates through Samsung KIES.
Now i read that as Upcoming next month through KIES next month is of course Jan 2012 in that respect firmware badged LA not KP as leak is Dec 2011
​Not roms leaked that's not KIES its the leak via samfirmware
Even bigger clue ROM SOURCE = sammobile not KIES .

Can't see ICS becoming available on KIES anytime soon based on how long it took to update to 2.3.5 for me.

Given past history I'd expect Germany to release first... DBT in particular.
Poland will get the first release. Thats for sure.

Generally the country code does not matter as long as your language is included and as long as your language is a widely spoken one like English, German, French or Spanish this should be the case with every release.

My guess is that it'll be released when jellybean gets released for GS2s with DBT. It's strange what's happening with jellybean on our little brother as it's only been released for 3 CSCs yet.

Bit of a rant: somewhat disappointed with the eternal delays. Don't really care for JB specifically as much as the touchwiz enhancements, improved Samsung keyboard (swiping+numbers row in one) and contact load up delay fix.
When the original Note came out, everybody said forget about touchwiz upgrades, Samsung never did it in the past, upgrading to another major version. We kind of accepted it. The majority of us were still content with having this little (big) wonder.
And then came some touchwiz updates with ICS. Shortly after, we were promised S III and Note 2 like features in the JB update. That was when? back in October or November? Which kind of set our hopes high, and got me thinking 'Well done Samsung, that's a good one'
Now it's just silly how low a priority Samsung has given the Note following the Note 2 release. Although I hate how apple controls and restricts its devices, you got to give it to them: they do maintain a reasonably steady stream of updates.
So here's hoping Germany's will be out somewhat faster than 1st of March (or a little later, or whenever, or whatever )
If you're buying a flagship device (like the Note and GS2 were) then you should expect at least 2 major OS updates imo. iPhones normally get 2 or 3 so top end Android devices should get the same in order to keep up with the competition.

You forgot that Apple develops its own software for their own hardware
And iOs never had so many new features in one update as android has. Look, jb brought all new experience with project butter and ics made the ui really good.
What makes apple? Multitasking in one year, folders in next one, than cydia and notification Drawer... So, I hope you understand what I mean.
And to the op, although I leave in Germany, I was born and lived in Ukraine for 15 years, and what I can say:don't trust them.

iOS was just updated to 6.1. iPhone 3GS, which came out in 2008 with iOS 2.0, is still supported and updated today. Support and updates for android devices is utter crap compared to what apple does. It's a shame. and needs to change.
