Posted on 30-07-2010

Both HTC/Sprint and Samsung have announced FroYo updates to their phones. The EVO 4G shall be updated to Android 2.2 by August 3rd, which according to Sprint will make it the first carrier to do so.

In case you missed the advantages of FroYo over Éclair, you can check it out here, but in the meanwhile, in a nutshell, FroYo offers users the following benefits: Flash video playback, faster performance including browser, Bluetooth voice dialing, and also the ability to store applications on the memory card (giving near unlimited app access).

Samsung
has announced that the Galaxy S phone in the UK will receive a FroYo update by September, as tweeted out by samsungukmobile. No word as to when this will head the innumerable Galaxy S variants in the US, or the normal Galaxy S phones everywhere else in the world. We are sure it won’t be too soon after though.
