We have some great news for anyone in possession of a Samsung Fascinate, Verizon have finally revealed that they will be sending out the 2.2 Froyo update for the device tomorrow.
Verizon have now finally gone public on the Android 2.2 Froyo update for the Samsung Fascinate, which will happen tomorrow, April 21, 2011. This update will bring the phone nearly up to the newest mobile operating system, that being the Android 2.3 Gingerbread. We would expect the update to start shooting out across the air tomorrow in some areas of the country.
However, if you just cannot wait that long, then there is always a manual download, which comes to us by way of AndroidCommunity. Rather than wait for the server to send you your update, you can get it yourself by following the simple steps below. Please note that you can also use these steps whenever you want to check and see if there is an update.
Step 1: From the main menu tap Menu Step 2: Select Settings Step 3: Select About phone Step 4: Select System updates Step 5: Select Check New. When it pops up on the screen to say you have got a download available, press OK. Then once your download has completed, select OK to install it and once your software is installed, press OK again — all done! If you receive this update as a notification from the server, you will essentially be doing the same thing except you will only need to press OK once!
If you want to find out what the benefits of doing this lovely update are, you can visit Verzion Wireless’ support site [here]. Whether you opt to download manually or via the server, please let us know what you think of the update.
