Is official FroYo comming to Galaxy Apollo?

[drbrainsol]

hurry up slackers!!! I want froyo on ma phone! Official froyo

 

[barqers]

I would stop waiting for official firmware. There's a bunch of developers over on the xda forums who're cooking up an amazing ROM. They're enabling JIT for our phones which = more processing power, less battery usage.

I'm scraping ever even wanting to use official firmware, they might as well abandon it for all I care.

 

[drbrainsol]

well, i still want to see how the official rom will look like

 

[ElasticNinja]

it already has an official leak

 

[merlin1976uk]

When will froyo become available for update in the UK...can't wait for it but don't want to use a hack...rom or whatever lol

Thanks

 

[ElasticNinja]

its not hack just leak

 

[merlin1976uk]

Still i'd rather wait for the official release gotta be much easier to install that way through keis

have you used Kies?

 

[merlin1976uk]

have you used Kies?

Yep...have to admit i have no idea how i would go about installing anything through it lol

 

[drbrainsol]

you just have to click on UPDATE and restart your phone when it tells you to. What's hard about that?

nope, there is no custom recovery for the Galaxy 3 afaik

 

[merlin1976uk]

does anyone actually know of the official release date for froyo in the UK?

 

[zakkkkk]

how will i be informed when the update comes out will the phone tell me theres a new update? im using on 3 unlocked from t-mobile

that is something that has been puzzling me cause i assumed that you'd get a text or something, or when you connect to kies it would tell you but so far nothing from either way

 

[j0nb0y]

when you connect to kies it will tell you. no official word on uk. samfirmware are insisting that it's imminent and it has already been rolled out to romania, russia, germany (t-mobile only??) , spain and sweden if you believe the anecdotal evidence kicking around the web. personally i'm giving them till the end of april (maybe mid may) before using a rom from samfirmaware.
some people are still skeptical that it will arrive but the evidence suggests that it is at least likely and if you are unsure or not confident of the process of flashing then it is worth waiting a couple of months.

 

[merlin1976uk]

why the heck do they have to stagger the release, whatever happend to global releases I used to swear by Samsung but this experience is really making me wonder if they are as good as they used to be...had samsung for the past 6yrs and never faulted them...i hope they don't make me think otherwise now, i'd hate to have to try and find another phone manufacturer that has done as good as they have in my eyes

 

[ElasticNinja]

that's why manufacturers leak updates.. regional and carrier issues delay updates for ages, so they give other options

So, we're almost April. Let's see if Samsung behaves like they promised.
