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.

nah, custom will be better. since custom wont be built from scratch, but rather a modified (read improved) sam-firmware

Does anyone know if its gonna be worldwide?
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)?

The JPA rom works on GT i5801? i Thought it was only for Galaxy S, no?
Do you have any links on how i can install JPA on to my phone? I have a GT 5801 with stock rom. I have rooted the phone though. any help would be appreciated

i already have 2.2 installed on my G3... when official update come out, will it be posible to install official over it?

[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.

i think you should go to samfirmware and flash your old rom then maybe u can update
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.

Pardon me for the possible ignorant question, but how can I update my Sprint Tab since I won't be activating it on Sprint?

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).

The only qualm I have is loosing the phone function of the tab if we ever get a honeycomb update. I hope samsung provides an app for that.

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.
I've started a thread to list confirmed countries here, please add to it as and when it becomes available in your country: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1086484

S4 google edition i9505

When are we going to have something to convert our i9505 to i9505g google edition? That supports OTA.
Sent from my GT-I9505 using xda app-developers app

i understand that OTA functionality will bring updates easily but i think that if you already have the technical know-how to be able to convert a i9505 to a GE, OTA updates would be the least of your worries...
Sent from my GT-I9505 using xda app-developers app

I have an int. 9505 on order, I want to run on it stock Google edition Android Un-Rooted with OTA capabilities too, I understand the friend and I share his interest, I'm not a fan of custom roms, no argument how *safe* it's android, I favor stock Un-Rooted rom on devices I use every day with all my personal info like passwords, credit cards, pins, etc
Sent From my Un-Rooted GT-N7100

really don't understand everyone's obsession with OTA... chances at the moment are very slim, due to different bootloader and partitions... however this may soon change. In the mean time there are plenty of Google Edition roms available.

The 4.2.2 rom is official. But why do you care so much about OTA? there will be a OTA every 3-4 months. Not daily,weekly,monthly.
ALot of people think Nexus devices get alot of updates but thats not the case. Last update for My Nexus 10 + Nexus 4 was 4months ago -.-

OTA updates will be so few and far between they're a complete irrelevance. Look at the Google roms on here, some of them have received over ten updates already. As for being 'Official', exactly why does that matter? Do you think having an 'Official' Google edition rom on your I9505 will make getting it repaired by Samsung any more likely should something go wrong? You will have still voided your warranty regardless.

We want stock I9505GE so we can use the full memory of the phone. So complete official and new partitions..

Great news about official 4.2.2 update!!!

Hey guys, i've called Samsung Brasil and they told me that our S3 Mini will get the 4.2.2 update in the upcoming weeks, they are planning to make it before december 20th. Great news for us!!! They complete it with what's new: Some apps will have the s4 look, lockscreen with camera widget... So, let's wait.
This is NOT a joke, i've really talked to Samsung Brasil, try calling yours country's Samsung.

Did they finally updated drivers

WHile the other deviced got directly 4.3 we will have 4.2.2? At least something.

4.2.2 ...? i dont want to be negative but... 4.2.2 is already old, now we have 4.4 wating for OEMs to update his own skins... :silly:
At least samsung should update our device to 4.3 since they skipped the 4.2.2 as the normal S3, plus, our device have never received an android update beyond android 4.1.x.
Every update is cool, I know, but come on, other samsung devices are getting 4.3, why ours not?

Because they want us to buy new phones :thumbdown:

No its because of our processor STE

Is this real? I don't believe it very much but anyway 4.2 is good because in 4.3 weren't actual changes. I hope we get these s 4 apps they are just awesome

Yes but it's bearable. In cm there are variate bugs as random reboots etc. Also stock ROM has Samsung apps and Touchwiz which I personally like it. I will probably go back to stock update if it comes and when cm 4.4 kitkat is released by maclaw I will return to it...
