that's incorrect. the behold 2 is not mentioned in that article so really you are reaching saying it will be released in march. the only confirmed march release on tmobile is for the cliq. samsung reps depending on which one you talk to say either no update is coming at all or that one will be released in june. btw the update on the open source page will be avilable as a ota bug fix in the next few weeks, again according to samsung reps. it will fix the sd card mounting issues.
This bug fix, which is now the first time I've heard of it. If its not going OTA, how will we be notified of it?
Probably poor choice of wording but I never said the poster was an insider. I said he received insider information from a samsung rep (in person).
Or did I read that wrong?
May???? May??? If Sammy has 2.1 on hand to release on a different phone in March (Galaxy 2), then they have it to release to us for the Behold 2. I am starting to feel that the OS update is purposely withheld to boost sales of another model of phone. That reeks.
We invested in this buggy 1.5 and have waited for an update to substantiate the high cost of the phone (vs a $99 cost, which it should have been, given the internal issues that cause it to be unstable).
What is the big fat difference between The Behold 2 and any new phone that they would release? Not much. Everything except the OS is in place for the B2 to be a jazzy phone right now. Sammy's big selling point for the new phones is 2.1. The other selling point is 32g of memory.
Release the 2.1 update to the SB2 community Sammy. I will deal with getting a larger SD card to compensate for my smaller memory card...on my own. The native memory is what it is. The processor is what it is. But the SB2 has been seen to literally FLY with the Galaxy ROM on a rooted SB2. So, the issue is simply the OS as we have said ad nauseum. - Samsung, you appear to be withholding the update on purpose. This is not a move to support your current user base. It seems to be a move to attract new customers for a phone that isn't even out yet while your current users suffer through constant dropped calls, frozen screens other issues like poor battery life. And we add to that list, lack of support because 1.5 is no longer supported on various apps. So, we are left out of cutting edge apps to top things off. I call your abandonment of the SB2 pure arrogance.
Just picked up the MyTouch 1.2 tonight so it looks like the Behold II is going on the shelf until Samsung figures out what the hell they're going to do. It's not 2.1 but it is 1.6 which is a step up ... I guess
not happy with it, not happy without it lol irony eh?
HA HA so true ... I'll never be satisfied.
Did you see in the Sprint forum that the Samsung Moment is rumored to be getting 2.1 on the 22nd? The rumor-mill is buzzing with all kinds of hearsay. It is exciting news if it is true. But, still no word on the SB2...
And how dare you leave me and 2Fr35H and Yati and the few faithful SB2 hopefuls!!! You defected! LOL - I thought we'd all see this through together and celebrate whenever the doggone update arrives. But, noooooooo. You defected. Left us high and dry. Abandoned your sisters and brothers in Sammyland. We who comforted you when your phone continuously Force-closed. We who sympathized with you...This is all too much for me... I cannot take it. I am going to play Diner Dash in your honor. And remember better times
NOT!!! ROTFLOL- Glad you got out brother!!! ROTFLOL.
