Android 2.3 for Samsung I5503 Galaxy 550

[melege]

Hello,
My question is about Samsung I5503 Galaxy 550.
It comes with Android 2.1 (Eclair). I am wondering if I will be be able to upgrade it to the latest version of Android (2.3) or not (if I buy it)!

Thanks for help.

I dont think it can do 2.3, but there plenty of 2.2 roms availble on the internet

I think is too early to say. Android 2.3 is quite new and has been released only on few devices. We had to wait about 6 month to get android 2.2 (most people still dont have 2.2)

So as I said, is too early to say anything.

"We will ask Samsung about 2.3 for ace, gio, fit and mini. No 2.3 for Galaxy 3 and 5!"

Well we can always get some kind of unofficial update.

But I really doubt that we will see android 2.3 on samsung galaxy 5.

 

[d.t.android]

So does anyone at all know where to find a 2.3 rom? I don't care if its not the real one. As long as it works! So I mean even something like a custom rom. I HATE FROYO!
