[News] Insider confirms S2 won't get Android 1.6 - Galaxy S II General

Just read on galaxys2arsemonkey.com that a Samsung insider claims that there will not be an Android 1.6 release for the Galaxy S2.
Although this hasn't definitely been ruled out by Samsung, it's expected that there will be cries of derision from some S2 owners who want the Donut release to improve battery life, touch screen sensitivity and the disabling of the front camera when accessing Xhamster in case the phone starts taking photographs during inopportune times.
Others claim that Samsung are deliberately not releasing the aging OS version just to deliberately annoy the development scene when one of their ilk complained on a website that 0.0001% of their customer base read and thus causing a PR "**** storm" leading to posts of "**** Samsung".
Anyhoo, if anyone wants to repeat this post a few times in this forum, repeating this same bull**** information, please feel free. It's not like this hasn't been going on all day here.....

Would be cool to see samsung indeed put 1.6 to our s2 as a PR-stunt
(they got enough old code in the 4.0/4.1 release to make it happen)

If you really have to explain this then it's too late and humanity is doomed..

The photos are much better in 1.6.
Im trying 1.6 and also the battery is better. Maybe because of less background services?

i really think google needs to work on perfecting froyo before they even think about rolling out GB, so far i don't think many people are really liking froyo to much, just doesn't seemed all it was hyped up to be to many.

NO WAI did you see the flash light?
I think they should let FroYo die and focus on making GB a better release, especially if they're numbering it as a major version. Honeycomb is nothing more than a name at this point. If they already knew what they wanted to develop for it, they'd just put it in GB.

That is correct, plus gingerbread
Personally I enjoy froyo a lot better then eclair and yes maybe it is not perfected however gingerbread is going to be a brand new version of android where as froyo is still a 2.x version of android making the possibilities in advancement greater then on froyo... Why waste time perfecting something when you have something better to perfect?

Think of Froyo like Windows Vista. It had improvements over XP but with a lot of problems too that left most rather unimpressed. So Microsoft decided cut short development of Vista in favor of developing Windows 7 which by-in-large has been well received such that we would like to forget that Vista ever happened. In the same way, I think we will forget about Froyo once Gingerbread releases, provided that it actually is a great remake of Android.
In other words, why waste time perfecting a buggy OS? Just start over. Rethink the OS from scratch with a few lessons learned from previous successes and failures.
Eh...just my $0.02.

Supposedly Gingerbread will completely overhaul the default Android user interface, to the point where HTC was being asked if they would even include Sense on 3.0 (they said they still would, unfortunately...) That's what I'm most excited about Android is pretty B.A. but it's ugly as heck.
Once again why waste time perfecting something when there is something new to perfect

You can tell the nexus S is a samsung phone because its made of cheap plastic. But to bad the specs arent the same as Galaxy s Phones.....huge bummer to those who bought one and dont even have Froyo yet.
Nope, not a bummer. Polly want a cracker?

Awesome a noob!
bL33d i love how you call me a new noob but i can guarentee ive had more android phones than you.
All im saying is to have bought a Fascinate and to have sooo many quirky problems....like GPS and the slow to get 2.2 Froyo. Its disapointing when a phone with such great hardware has to wait for a os update. And now gets KO'd by a dev phone which sets the standard for the next year as the first nexus did.
Makes you admire how Apple runs there business. You know what your getting with them. With Android is Awesome hardware with hit or miss with updates to the OS. Samsung has had a bad reputation with OS updates!!!

Spelling does suck
If the hardware is the same or very similar to that of the Fascinate and other SGS phones, wouldn't that mean that future updates would be easier to port? I'd think that would make the phone more desirable personally.

Just a hunch. The update to froyo is on hold because the galaxy series is going right to gingerbread. Didn't anyone ever think of that?

Let me just danny this down for you. The things you just listed are roughly equivalent to saying:

Ummm i said The nexus 2 was spotted....looking different in many ways to the galaxy S. The Nexus sets the standard for ANDROID phones....does it not? Its a shame because we dont even have 2.2 yet....
But I hope im wrong...

The i-9000 is different from the Vibrant, Captivate, Epic, and Fascinate, yet things that work on one were able to be ported to the others. Voodoo lagfix, BLN, Voodoo color and I'm sure there are others changes that have been ported. Having hardware that is very similar in how it works is a great start. If the next Nexus device is based on the SGS lineup, it should make it easier down the road for development.

The sense of update entitlement that is starting to grip the entire Android community is becoming really, really, tiresome.
For phones going form GB to ICS I get it. ICS is a HUGE leap from GB. For those with Honeycomb on tablets I have to ask. What does ICS offer YOU that you would actually use day to day that Honeycomb doesn't already offer.
Not looking to troll here. Looking for honest answers. ICS is not that radically different from Honeycomb.
On a less serious note, this thread made me laugh my ass off.
Incidentally I agree completely. Last phones Vibrant, then GS2. Tablet G-Tab 10.1. After the updating mess on Vibrant and the delays of the GS2 I now own a HTC S. I am done with Samsung.

Its more efficient as a whole. Better monitoring potential. Most importantly for me, need drivers so TouchWiz can be removed with all working hardware. This changes the game from a performance perspective.

I can't speak for others but I want ICS because I'm hoping Shamsung would get it right and put out a firmware that actually works right and isn't defective. I love my Tab now with Task14 and Pershoot's kernel but I shouldn't have to use all that to have a smooth working tablet. They sold me a $600 fine piece of hardware with a crummy OS. I'm also hoping that even if they don't get it right the source will help devs keep developing for this device.

Thisis the best handy phone out there which has perfect display size , very thin , too much development on XDA
S2 is a masterpiece. Perfect screen size, very handy, I forget it in my packet and sometimes I'm scared of dropping the phone while walking on street, because I cannot feel the weight. Not too bad screen resolution, rectangular shape (not round sides like s3), still a beast with its hardware. No reason to buy another phone.

Insert witty sentence here
One reason I love my SII (aside from the blistering 1.6ghz overclock speed and amazing camera) is this thing is BASICALLY indestructible. I can't count the number of times it's gone plummeting towards the concrete, no case ever,and it takes it like a champ every time. I've seen WAY too many shattered SIII screens in such a short time I can't be confident in it. It can't be that everyone is that horribly careless. also, the main draw of this year's phones are screen resolution and while VERY nice, I couldn't bring myself to make such an incremental step up

You have lost the sense of reality man... I owned every Samsung device since Galaxy S. So no trolling from me, but if everybody that has something with the Samsung way of doing software is a troll, then you're worse than an true Apple fanboi.
Back to the topic, a smartphone is more than a gazillion Ghz processor, it seems that even S600 clocked at 1.9Ghz is a little too much as temperature values are high as is also the battery consumption.

U do realize your still trolling right the Guy asked y didn't Samsung use the snap 8 processor the guy above said it isn't released yet answering the question
U on the other hand made no attempt to answer the question just said that that processor wouldn't have made a difference in laggy touchwiz that was completely and grossly off topic
Hence trolling
But this seems to be going nowhere so ill leave u to do whatever it is u trolls do

I just answered to your very-ontopic trolling accusations. You have just made two pointless posts.

What a horrible attempt at deflection
I only commented because of your first post which insulted Samsung along with making zero contribution
Your second post said something that was already said
And your third post makes it out that your first post never happened
Anyway can u explain how your first post was contributing anything at all

Insulted Samsung? Really? Oh my! Probably they're all depressed now. I bet you were/are the ass kisser champion in your classroom. But relax, it's my last post on this thread... I'm no match for you, you beat me hands down.

This isn't about winning how does one win in a situation like this? I imagine the community could possibly benefit from meaningful contributions but someone winning? The fact that u said that shows me where your head is at that there is some imaginary competition that could have a winner going on now your trolling makes a bit more sense
Though said sarcastically ill take it as the end result is you leaving
Godspeed

i recon Because they wanted to make it a close as possible even performance mach with the Exynos??? The S800 would of been too much for the exynos Im betting and the closest competitor was the S600 although samsung could of underclocked the S800 but this would cost them more money, why Buy a more expensive chip amd not use its full potential because you have to create an equal performance to the 1.6ghz Exynos.. No point

Because it's not available until later in summer, simple as that.
Guys,
Welcome to the smartphone industry,
As short as 3-6 months,
Your device wont be considered "latest and greatest" anymore,
We have the best processor this current date, and i recon this is still future proof until the next 2-3 years and it will serve us well for sure.
We cant keep complaining since this industry is booming and competition is rather stiff.
