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

Updated on 11-Mar-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.
[RELATED_ARTICLE]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.
