Hi all, well all the fallowers my experience was really bad with samsung galaxy. No file transfer wits Btooth. Very bad web browser and even worst keypad. All these things is so bad in device like which so expensive. I use so many nokia’s before and apple’s iphone too. But according to me google’s android very very confusing platform. They have no idea what would be develop in this platform. They just mix up all the things and got nothing output. I like symbian os very much even now i just love coz i use iphone and android and in symbian os there is no limitation to do things. You can easily download any thing on the web directly in device whatever its songs or app. In android i cant download any thing from web and in iphone too. So whatever so much companies told there os are best or very up to date blah blah. But symbian os is just awsome in many term. And now symbian3 is ready to launch in market. Waiting for nokia N8. And bye bye all other platforms when this beautiful device in my hand. Bye all tc. Cheers.

[...] Samsung Galaxy might never get a 2.x update, but being stuck at 1.5 was just plain cruel. Galaxy owners wondering what solar system they would be confined to are about to get a ticket out [...]

Samsung is like sprint in a way, they make good quality products but they provide bad customer care and don’t take care of their investments. I cant say this about their TV’s and such, but I think I’m done buying their phones.

I really hope that samsung does not end up dumping my Moment after the 2.1 update. i came from a previous samsung phone that was also tossed to the side and forgotten about prematurely despite all the hype around it during its release…… that samsung instinct became a worthless paper weight less than a year after its release

I will never buy a Samsung product again in my life…
I have a BluRay player from them and the support was fucking garbage.

The Dream/G1 does have some hardware limitations, but the Galaxy should have the RAM/ROM space for 2.1 right??

Samsung does not support there shit!

Does this mean the Galaxy Spica (GT-i5700) will not get the update as well?

I’m with you…

I’m quite happy with the phone (spec-wise), but I really envy 2.1 users for all the improvements to the platform (think navigation, better camera app, BT functionality, wpa2 enterprise, and maybe some battery life optimizations)

Apart from that, I’d like to see some bugs fixed too… (like when you charge the battery while the phone is on, it will work for 2 days, and when you charge it while the phone is off, it will work for 3,5 days; touch screen never working while in call, even when you’re not holding the phone to your head;…)

Piss on Samsung for not offering any information about this. Even if they do release a 2.0 firmware, I’ll buy my next Android phone from someone who releases a bit more information.

And if they don’t, I’ll just put on a 3rd party ROM when one becomes mature. That’s one of the benefits of Android, as a platform, regardless of who is manufacturing the hardware.

New rumors point at a 2.0/2.1 update after summer.

Hate to say I told you so! Samsung did never phoneupdates in their history why should they support android while develop their own OS at the same time. I am sorry but Samsung was crap is crap and will ever be the crappiest manufacture of mobile phones :(

So does any one know if this is affecting all Galaxy branded phones (I’m thinking Spica/Portal) or is it just the original??

So 1.6 is guaranteed but 2.0 is iffy great…
