***Official Samsung Fascinate 2.2 Speculation Thread***

[drone66]

I just thought I should put the rumors to rest. Samsung has every intention on delivering the Froyo update on time as they had initially stated. They said by the end of the year. We just misinterpreted the end of the year as 2010. They really meant 2011. They are confident they'll hit the target date they just don't know if it will be in November or December. LOL.

This makes me wana cry.... And the fact that Iphone for VZW just came out.

LOLZ!!!

 

[k rock]

No update yet.

and clearly I don't even know how to do quotes here... which explains why I'm scared of rooting.



oh wait it worked this time lol

Don't waste your time checking for updates. IF it starts today, it will likely be 11:59 PM.

 

[Frisco]

Post #931 was an attempt at humor, friends (".... > oh never mind").

lol .. etc,

 

[badonkadonk]

I got that lol, lolz, roflmfao etc...etc...

maybe instead of trying updates repeatedly I should take the time to read up on rooting....

I must be the exception because I'm a self-proclaimed Samsung fanboy. It started with my Samsung LCD TV a few years ago, then my Samsung blu-ray player, then my Fascinate, and just this past weekend Time Warner hooked me up with a new Samsung DVR which is much faster and has 3x the storage space. I haven't had too much interaction with their customer service, but it seems to be no worse than any other company. Over at CNet.com they have a dedicated Samsung message board where a Samsung employee posts and responds regularly. A couple of times I've posted about incompatible blu-ray titles and a few days later there was a worldwide firmware update.

Anyway, maybe, just maybe it could be that Samsung really does care about their products and the user experience and just wants to get this update right the first time. From what I understand it's not that the company is just being lazy, they're probably actively working on tweaking 2.2 for the Fascinate and other devices so that when it does come out, crybabies like some of you on this thread wont throw a temper tantrum and blame Samsung for poor customer service when you can't figure out why your battery life sucks after the update. It seems to be a no-win for them, so my guess is that they're going to err on the side of releasing a stable update that they know will work on the majority of their devices rather than catering to the very small percentage of users who piss their pants when an update is a few months behind other manufacturers.

I don't think the update's coming out for us non rooted users today... from now on I'm not even bothering with rumors, they always lead to disappointment.

Sometimes the news media gets that mixed up.
