Galaxy S USA release date - Nov 11

[pkoutoul]

Well darn. I had been holding my breath for this.

 

[Chee]

I havent go anything yet, I am thinking it was just speculation. Not a single person has posted about having it yet so I guess the waiting game continues. Right now I'm pretty happy with the phone on 2.1, but if it was easy for you to do the root, perhaps I will try it soon

I did alot of research and considered why I wanted to root for a long time. I followed alot of forums and luckly San Diego has a few xda developers around who were able to tell me what I'd be doing to my phone if I were to root it. I found a well respect developer (Disclamer:they live in thier own world, extremely smart, but cool poeple to know) and went with that product. Do not just jump on the first website you see and download its' root. These phones are effin expensive to replace if you hard brick them. Like I posted previously, I was happy with my 2.1. But like all the poeple who will bother to read this, I like my technology and thus the forward progression of it. Peace my Android Bretheren and Sisteren.

+1 - and this is for whoever started that rumor

 

[Darth Prolif]

It's the 13th and still no update, maybe later on this day... or at least by the 15th...

Or the 17th - or the 19th - or whenever they actually release it. Speculation does nothing but add to post counts

true but usually when the roms are released, the official followes up a few days after, usually. Sometimes a week to a week and a half.

 

[LoweredStandards]

meh, its not coming. Im probably moving on from the Vibrant in a week or two. Really don't feel like rooting and I'm sick of waiting for the update and a REAL GPS fix. GPS took a s**t on me today when I was lost in downtown MPLS and then the battery died shortly after even though it said I had plent left. That was the final straw.

Unfortunately I don't have a lot of options with T-Mobile :/

It is coming, it's just a matter of time...

I'm tired of this waiting bullshit though...

 

[Thefoodman52]

Get a g2. It's everything the vibrant is, plus functional GPS, and a kickass keyboard with fancy pants hinge doo-hickey.

Hey. they might go straight to 2.3. Who knows. It's got to be a real good reason they have not pushed the OTA.

Don't hold your breath. If that is the case they wouldn't have released 2.2 to UK's Galaxy S's

 

[Matty Mo]

The time it has been since they first said 2.2 was coming and now is ridicolous... i wish that the lies they provided us gave us ground to be able to return our phones back to our carriers for different ones.

I officially and for the record Co-Sign the above statement.

 

[Chee]

Okay I have already rooted and updated to Froyo, but what pisses me off is that Galaxy S is still a fairly new phone, right? Then why the hell does it look like phone will be comming out with 2.3 Ginga-Bred before my wifes and all my fellow Galaxy S family get 2.2! I am about start a effing movement in here!

 

[Chee]

AND HOW MANY DOGG-ON POST MUST I MAKE BEFORE I STOP BEING A JUNIOR MEMBER!!?? Thank for listining to me vent.

I would be extremely surprised and happy if they did. Though its kinda unlikely :/.

 

[compscidev]

its getting annoying waiting for the update

 

[Guamguy]

Galaxy S updates are staggered. UK and Netherlands have gotten then. Appears that O2 has it in effect.

Galaxy S updates are now also in effect in India and Korea.

Captivate and Vibrant appeared scheduled for mid December. No word on the Epic or Fascinate yet.

I suggest just let them do their job and see it through. The Scandinavian update didn't turn out too well so they're doing a staggered approach, approving one area after another like dominoes after each area's update has gone through with little or no problems.

I'm continually checking for South East Asian region updates as well for my own phone.

 

[fenderman]

boy does this sound all to familiar to the situation with the Behold 2 lol! Samsung Samsung Samsung what a shame! I tell you before long people will have to understand that Samsung provides great hardware to there phones but thats really about it! There software as well as customer relations well blows!!!!

 

[Guamguy]

There customer relations are all over social media actually, like in Twitter. One of them is even *pretty*.

But yes, they're rolling out gradually and I'm following Twitter responses to see how well it went. The first roll out in Scandinavia and Baltic regions had quite a bit of issues so I am monitoring. It appears the new wave seems a lot better this time.

Personally I am annoyed that you have to use Kies to get the update, at least for international versions like the one I use. For the US versions, it might just be pushed in the air.

That's for the Canadian models, American variants are supposed to get it next week or so.

Actually a good friend of mine was holding his breath waiting for the 2.2 update, sadly he's now on life support...

 

[YonderComesTheTrain]

It's way past November 11th and there is no sign of a Froyo Update.

 

[reinbeau]

I'd stop worrying about it and enjoy the holidays - doesn't look like it'll happen any time soon.
