Froyo for Galaxy 3/Apollo is scheduled for april 2011 via Kies (official)

Technically it is possible to run Gingerbread(android 2.3) on Galaxy 3/Apollo

Guys!! wake up!!
we no longer need the froyo...gingerbread is up...
we need to tell Samsung to give the 2.3 rather than 2.2...
what do u all think????

I don't think it will work 2.3 needs 1 GHz processor.

Any reference link for saying this ?
I do see samsung guys have always given mixed answers to Galaxy 3 users about froyo update.

If they are going to give it in April, I am going to install the custom firmware this weekend.
I am out of phone memory and don't want to wait another 4 months for the stupid update.

Here is link where you can find details, but no definitive answer so far. no body is willing to confirm.

Does Gingerbread Have Minimum Hardware Requirements After All? (UPDATE) AndroidGuys

I am reading thru so i can do it on mine.

I'm sorry, but that's just a hoax, Check this

Furthermore, i think we should be glad to have 2.2 in the near future, 2.3 will probably be for the summer...

ghpk · December 29th, 2010, 06:05 PM

reagnon, with the speed Samsung is pushing updates for Galaxy users, I think it will take 2.3 another year to reach us.

Anyway I just rooted my i5801 and installed livewallpapers, and will be loading Froyo in next couple of days.

Interesting to read this article on same subject .Sprint delays Epic 4G software update, no Galaxy S phones in the U.S. will see Android 2.2 in 2010 – Android and Me

I found one more link on this topic Android 3.0 Gingerbread Hardware Requirements

nunchez · December 31st, 2010, 09:24 AM

I hope they release a hacked 2.3 soon because I found this link

More details on the Android 3.0 a.k.a. Gingerbread requirements - GSMArena.com news

It says 1Ghz processor and 512mb RAM is the Recommended requirements not the minimum so technically it can be possible.

Good luck trying though

I guess 3.0 is Honeycomb and not Gingerbread....

I upgraded my galaxy 3 I5801 at last to android 2.2... but now the real question... Is it possible to upgrade it to android 2.3 or not???

fallenhd · November 6th, 2011, 08:50 AM

there a article which says that samsung is planning to release gingerbread for the whole galaxy line by year end because sony and lg are doing it for their phones.
