Samsung drips Froyo on Galaxy S phones

Samsung’s release of an open-source Android 2.2 update indicates official, carrier-supported versions of Froyo should be on the way soon.


Whether you know it as the Fascinate, Epic 4G, Vibrant or Captivate, Samsung’s Galaxy S is finally ready for an update to Android 2.2, also known as Froyo. Or at least, it is if you have the technical chops.


Samsung’s Open Source Release Center released the source code for the update on Wednesday, meaning techy-savvy Android users can grab the update immediately, and officially sanctioned versions tweaked by carriers should be on the way shortly. A search for GT-I9000 should turn it up at the release center, but Samfirmware mirrors a copy as well (free registration required).
