The official release of Android 2.2 (Froyo) finally came out for it today! But the update won't work on my phone anybody else have a Samsung Galaxy S Fascinate and successfully install the update today?
Anybody have a Samsung Galaxy S?
- Thread starter WickedSick
- Start date
I had one 'till it got stolen, then I got this motorola smart phone piece of shit which I'll probably review and then smash it at the end of the video. I miss the galaxy, slapped the shit out of the iPhone. It'll probably be what I get again this time.
I have a Vibrant. Root it and install a better ROM from the XDA-Developers forum if you don't mind messing around with that kind of stuff. I think I have been running 2.2 since about a week after I bought the phone last fall. I believe the newest custom ROMs have pieces of 2.3 from the Nexus S mixed in with 2.2. Converting the laggy RFS filesystem that Samsung used to ext4 instead is a HUGE improvement.
I got a Sprint Epic that was upgraded OTA to froyo a few weeks ago, seems like it just created more issues. Doesn't seem to run anything faster, shuts off by itself with 20% battery left while I'm talking. I read alot of comments on androidcentral with other strange stuff occurring.
Yeah custom ROMs FTW. I get mine from Modaco
I would still be on 2.1 with my ZTE Blade (best cheap smartphone ever) but the guys at Modaco have released stable 2.2 and 2.3 ROMs.
There was even a semi working Honeycomb ROM for the ZTE

I do but I haven't done anything to it. Haven't rooted it or upgraded the OS. I bought mine end of November so it might have come with it???
The lady friend has it and just updated yesterday without any issues (Verizon).
All I can say is if you aren't rooted you need to be. Its fun as hell to try out different ROMS. I am still rocking the original Droid but just loaded a Gingerbread ROM onto it the other day with lots of extra custom options.
