Oct 15, 2010 Based on breathless reports we're seeing on Twitter and in the XDA-Developers' forums, it would appear that Samsung has just pushed out the official Android 2.2 Froyo update for its Galaxy S. Oct 20, 2010 Recently, we shared that the Froyo update for Samsung Galaxy S Android phone has began to roll out via Kies software for some Norwegian users. However, it seems that the Android 2.2 upgrade will take more time to be available for everyone over the world.

Jul 28, 2010 The Samsung I9000 Galaxy S is expecting its Android v2.2 (a.k.a. Froyo) update sometime in September but if you're too eager to taste the Froyo, you can do it right away since an official Galaxy S.
The Froyo i.e. Android 2.2 version update which was very much awaited for the Samsung Galaxy S devices, has finally started coming in, firstly with the European devices. The update mainly includes the fix of GPS navigation system which was improper in the phones using the 2.1 version of Android. Update can be done through the Samsung Kies software for Windows.
The froyo update has the main changes, as Samsung states in the press release –
Jul 28, 2010 This feature is not available right now. Please try again later. Feb 13, 2011 2.2.1 is available for any one in the UK that has an unbranded phone through kies, so this makes it an official update. Branded phone user are unlucky at the moment and are unlikely to get this update any time soon, as most networks have only just released Froyo 2.2.
