Samsung promised that today should upgrade SGS to Froyo, but nothing??
ROFLMAO!!
Nobody promised anything
No. Not today.
It's better that way instead of another crappy firmware and this time official. They will go to hell if they do that
Samsung just announced that there will be no froyo for galaxy s. Are you happy now
Hi vlad,
As reported in several other topics, September 23 was less than a rumour, Samsung never said officially that this was "Froyo day".
AFAIK what we know by now is that T-Mobile branded SGS should be upgrade before the end of the month (which could mean even on 09/30), and it looks like that no brand SGS won't be upgraded before mid october.
Again, what we are talking about are just rumours, there's no official date from sammy.
Still I'd rather wait few days more and get a decent firmware.
edit: please try to make a search next time, before posting.
totally useless to open a topic about something that not happened,

I do not know. No. Yes.
Lets just wait for it when it comes. Lets not speculate. Let Samsung build a decent firmware with all the important fix especially to enable JIT. I am happy with JPH for now.
not in the development child forum! dewdoodude.
The only official statements from Samsung (in facebook) is End of September for UK, End of October for Spain, India,... T-Mobile also stated End of September for their clients...
Saw some statements from users that contacted their operator and in some cases it will be available this week....
Definitelly it will not be released Worldwide at the same time. Patience.

+1 Agree. I'm Still with the official JM2 and I'm not in a hurry to get Froyo unless it fixes the pending issues.
(I hope this is not the same as Micro$oft and it's Windows Vista. )
The morale of the story is to be happy with what you have (eclair) and don't wait for froyo.
Otherwise buy some other phone which already has froyo.
Keep waiting... Maybe we will get froyo during christmas. Presents from Samsung.

For waiting the official froyo, i just flash the jm8 with rom tatayuma....
Even with the 'end of September' comment they still didn't say which year.

Haha Verry funny, maybe 2012 when at the end of the world
Quoted from Samsung Mobile Singapore Facebook:
Hi Muhd, our local R&D team have not passed the Froyo software as yet. We are trying to rush HQ to send us the new software for testing. Realistically, we would expect some delay with this week being the Korean Thanksgiving holiday week. We will keep everyone posted on the timeline as soon as we get confirmation.
Hi Weijian, we would love to but these are all controlled by our HQ in Korea. This week being Korean Thanksgiving holiday week does not help. The current Froyo software being tested locally is not satisfactory so there is a good chance the official release to end consumer will be in Oct.
The Koreans are in holiday. Not froyo day apparently.

Why this forum is so in late on new releases?
On neopeek's forum they have Gingerbread and here nothing moves since almost 4 months?
Is someone still working on xdandroid?
The lastest release is dated 3 september and no news.
There's the camera almost working and no mention here...
Is it time for us to change forum?
I hope in new releases in the few days
The Nexus One was released a while ago, but the specs are very well up to date if you look at it compared to phones nowadays. So, how long do you guys think the Nexus One will have development for? Another month? Another year? Few more years? Give me a guess, just for fun.
The g1 still has it.
MEXICO U-17 WC CHAMPIONS!!
do you mean development as in custom roms or official updates from google?
custom: forever
google: icecream may be the last
The Galaxy S line was such a hit that Google even gave its latest "Nexus" phone to Samsung. Not just that, the Google even gave up the naming convention it’s been using to date, allowing Samsung’s "Galaxy" branding to come before the Nexus name. The Samsung Galaxy Nexus was born.
But what about Samsung’s bread and butter? What about its own Galaxy S line?
With Mobile World Congress not too far away now it had been expected that we would be seeing some movement from the Koreans, with the show offering a great place to announce a new handset.
That suggestion has been blown out of the water at late, and Samsung’s own executives seem to think that the whole Samsung Galaxy S III thing is under review. That almost confirms there will be no announcement just yet.
It’s entirely possible that Samsung is concerned about a new Galaxy S handset cannibalizing the current Galaxy S sales and is currently mulling over when to bring the highly anticipated handset to market.
All that said, a photo has popped up of what appears to be the Samsung UAE website, with the new handset showing in a drop-down list. The Samsung GT-I9300 as it is expected to be known, is clearly visible in a list that includes all of Samsung’s smartphones. Does that mean someone somewhere at Samsung is being a little coy about release dates, or has someone had a case of the itchy trigger finger and sent a page live that wasn’t ready?

this kind of thing is becoming often day after day. i don't think it is someone`s mistake to let information about smartphones and other gadgets being know before their release... this is marketing!
anyway, galaxy s is for sure one of the best smartphones line ever, and a new release would be awesome!
lame, no photo. lame.

"This is just the start of leaks"? Really? There have been supposed "leaks" for the past 4 months. This whole thread is old news, and has been covered in at least 5 other different threads today. As per your original post, I DID NOT hit the thanks button, as this in no way shape or form help me or any other user on XDA.

HTC has only pushed 4.2 to the One, a 2013 flagship, and the S4, Samsung's latest 2013 flagship also has 4.2 so they actually aren't behind in any way. AFAIK the same goes for Sony.
Update postponed till xmas

Agreed. HTC's 2013 "flagship" and savior device shipped with 4.1 and is still in the process of getting 4.2. There are more Google-caused issues in 4.2 than there are in 4.1 so it’s great it has new features everyone wants but the same people *****ing about not having it will be the first to ***** if battery life is less, BT is borked, or if anything is inferior to 4.1. And if Samsung released a rushed and buggy N2 4.2 update those same people would be up in arms. 4.1>4.2 isn't a major update and 4.1 isn't broken.

Did you read the article? It looks like it was written by a kid.
The upcoming Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean for both Samsung Galaxy S3 & Galaxy Note 2 is reported to be delayed again and scheduled not earlier than November 2013. Factors such as the Galaxy S4 sales, Android 4.3 Jelly Bean and K Build release date affected the update release date.There's no source for the information other than "is reported." And does anyone here think Samsung, a company with a $12B R&D budget, is so single threaded or low on resources that something like soft SGS4 sales or doing multiple updates across different devices at the same time is going to tax them? The SGS4's been on the market for four months and punishing the SGS3 or N2 by stalling their update to 4.2 isn't going to help or hurt its sales. Outside XDA people don’t even know what version of Android their running. At most, they know they know “Jelly Bean” is the latest and 4.1 is JB. HTC didn't think launching their new flagship on 4.1 was going to hurt sales and it took them four months to bring it up to 4.2. And since Samsung never officially said when existing 4.1 devices would be brought up to 4.2 there isn't a delay. Something that's never been announced can't be delayed.
And as for the Note 8 getting it first, that makes total sense. It uses a phone vs. tablet UI similar to the N2 but sells in probably 1/10 the volume. If something's broken or needs trouble shooting in customer’s hands it's better to test it on a smaller audience. 4.2 hasn't been used with S Pen, S Note, or an inductive display before and doing so adds a lot of extra code. I'm fine with Note 8 users being the Guinea pigs because my N2 runs perfectly on 4.1.
But do continue to rant and run this thread up to dozens of pages like the other update threads. I'm sure it'll make the update come faster.
Owners of S3 and Note 2 can surely expect the Android 4.2.2 update, but it requires some patience as the maker struggles with Galaxy S4 sales and new Android versions.

The maker "struggles"??? What, they only make 10 billions instead of 12?? What about all the customers that they are pissing off? Do they think this will help future sales? I for one will start looking where the grass is greener.

And where would that be? HTC? One S owners would disagree the grass is greener. Motorola? Those that bought phones in late-2011 with the promise (in writing) from Motorola they'd receive it and then didn't don't think their grass is any greener. LG and Sony perhaps? There track records are worse than Samsung's.
Want instant updates? Buy a Nexus. Even the GE versions of the One and SGS4 are dependent on HTC and Samsung so won't get updates as fast as a Nexus. Buying a phone with an overlay (which everyone here did) means you wait for updates. If people didn't know that upfront it's their own fault.
And again, whining amongst yourselves here in three different threads on the same subject isn't going to make an update come any faster.

Ha ha you're right. I was spoiled when I had my S3 six months ago. They were updating almost every weeks then. Now I have to actually WAIT for an update. I feel like an iphone user.:crying:

Hey, everyone here has a right to their opinion and feelings about updates. I mostly stay out of update threads. I pop up occasionally becaue people new to XDA or trying to see if a certain phone's worthwhile could get the wrong impression when people go off on Samsung about updates. In my opinion they're no worse than others and over this past year seem to be pushing more general updates out then they have been. But in truth they all pretty much suck and updates clearly aren't a priority. I'd expect starting with the X-Phone, now that Motorla's owned by Google, Motorola should probably lead the pack. We'll have to wait and see.
Maybe someone could explain to me if Samsung sucks so much w/ updates, which mythical company we're talking about that has started rolling out 4.2.2 for it's 2012 flagship? FFS One's just getting 4.2.2 and that came out with S4.
And once 4.2.2 is out more whining threads will be out re: battery life and downgrading to 4.1.2. I'm good with 4.1.2 custom ROMs, what exactly are people missing out on 4.2.2? Lockscreen widgets? Really? Is it worth all this persistent whining?

Shhh. They're all mostly 16yo and this is a big thing for them. Don't try to understand why.
Back when my S3 was on ICS and we were waiting for JB, I asked all the complainers what feature they were missing. One bloke said he was losing business because he didn't have Google Now! (He was serious too)
In a world where flashing a new ROM every second day makes sense, you HAVE to have the latest version of stuff. You just do. The End.
Oh yeah another bastard thread about people moaning because we don't have 4.2.2
Yes im going to shout
WHY ON EARTH WOULD THEY DROP THIS UPDATE BEFORE THE NOTE 3 IS RELEASED AND NOBODY KNOWS WHAT THE NOTE 3 WILL BE RUNNING.
Get it in your heads shut up and wait and stop clogging this forum up with crap every time a phone gets an update. Ffs

bad news indeed, but i'm good on 4.1.2
When (not if) we get the 4.2 update, I suggest eager fans divide it in half to get two updates --> 4.2 / 2 = 2.1
With those two 2.1 updates, use one right away, then save the second for when u feel the need for additional updates later.
Hit thanks if this sounds like a viable option
