Samsung to release Froyo update for Galaxy 3 and 5 in March

Posted on 11-03-2011
 
Along with news of a Gingerbread update for the Galaxy S, Samsung has also announced a Froyo (Android 2.2) update for its popular low-cost Android phones - the Samsung Galaxy 3 (I5800) and Galaxy 5 (I5500).
 
We've heard numerous anxious queries from our readers ever since Froyo was released - would the Galaxy 3 or 5 ever get an update? Samsung's finally answered.
 
The company has definitely strengthened its consumer base with this move, putting its after sales support in good light, even if the update came almost a year after Froyo was released, and more than six months after the two phones released.
 
According to Samsung Mobile Romania, the I5500 Galaxy 5 will get an update by 20th March, while the I5800 Galaxy 3 will get its taste of Froyo by the end of the month.
 
Update: If you are wondering how you can go all frozen yogurt on your device once the update is available, it's supposed to be relatively simple - download Samsung's Windows-based Kies phone suite from the company's support page, connect your phone, choose the option, and voila.
