Samsung Galaxy S Gets Early Build of Android 2.2, Shown Off in Video

28 July 2010 by Evan Selleck



We already know that Samsung plans on launching some of their Galaxy-based devices with Android 2.2. No, not here in the States, but more like across the world. What that means, though, is that Froyo is alive and well, and Samsung is obviously testing it on their devices. Sure enough, here you get to see a Galaxy S with a new (brand new), and incomplete build of 2.2.

As you can see from the video, it doesn’t have all the features that we would come to expect. However, it still exists. And, if you’re running an international version of the Galaxy S (not the Captivate or Vibrant, which are available here in the States), then you can actually go download it and check it out for yourself. Again, it’s an early test build, but at least it’s better than nothing. Check out the video below for the gruesome details.

  3. I will once it gets better, might not post it here though
  4. I love my Vibrant, but I am excited for it to get even better.

    I just hope they give us a contact manager that works like its suppose to. Not sure about others, but the Vibrant doesn't even have a way to upload contacts in the phone's memory to google contacts. Plus, you can't use custom rings or pictures from the phone in the contacts in google. PLUS, google contacts are in one group instead of the groups you create on google contacts. The phone is a 9 out of 10 for me, but this one thing keeps it from being perfect. Hopefully, it will improve with the upgrade.
