Bout time
First of all...all updates come directly from Microsoft...not sammy, htc..etc.
Nokia is gona be the only win7mobile manufacture to use custom skins on win7mobile devises.
What comes to android... i love my android, but im not starting to wait for an update to come out right away when its been announced...or some people starts the wait before they even bought the damn device. Were it an win7, android, symbian...etc.
If ur not happy to ur custom manufacture skin, buy an "vanilla" version...

HTC makes the best updates for android, desire will get 2.3, that means 2 major updates for desire..
all these android fans. this thread is for windows phone 7, dont come here and discuss your family problemssssssss e.t.c. contribute to the best future mobile OS

If the OEM doesn't feel like updating your device then you're stuck no matter how capable your phone is.
Google needs to put its foot down on this but it seems like they are not interested in fixing this mess. I like Android but I am not blind to its weaknesses and faults.
Loads of Chocofun, 03 Mar 2011Exhibit A. See, why do you have to wait on XDA to update? Sammy ain't doing it fast enough. Sa... moreTrue. I flashed my SGS just to get Froyo a full two months before my carrier got done putting on their crap on the update.
Loads of Chocofun, 03 Mar 2011Yeah it did but how long did it take it to FINALLY get it? And thats just ONE sammy phone. Wha... moreTrue. At least the updates don't have to take months before it reaches the end user. With Android it goes like this
1. Google releases an update
2. OEMs like Samsung takes months to skin/customize the new Android version.
3. OEMs passes the customized updates to the carriers which in turn put their own crap and adds a few more months
4. The update reaches the end user. It takes usually around 6 months or more after Google released the update.
By the time the update reaches the end user a new version of Android is already out and you will only get the update if the OEM decided that your device will get one. Just take a look at what happened to the SE X10. It's stuck on 2.1 because SE got lazy to make an update for it.
This is my biggest gripe with Android phones. You buy them and then that's it. You won't even know if you'll get an update or not. I've been using Android phones for like a year now and this trend doesn't appear to change soon.
Nokia and Apple are doing much better when it comes to updates.

wp7 update is directly from Microsoft, not from samsung, lg or HTC.. the update will be all send at the same time...
there is a problem on samsung tho.. that is why microsoft delay it.
Loads of Chocofun, 03 Mar 2011Exhibit A. See, why do you have to wait on XDA to update? Sammy ain't doing it fast enough. Sa... moreyeah i totally agree..i guess sammy is giving an update everytime they release a new device.LOL..i want to try the wp7 phone but not now i guess i will wait for it to mature!
AnonD-37, 03 Mar 2011And it looks like it will get 2.3 as well. There was a leaked Gingerbread ROM for I9000 on the... moreExhibit A. See, why do you have to wait on XDA to update? Sammy ain't doing it fast enough. Sammy sucks at updating Android. They make people have to go and flash and root their devices because they take too long. Just like what will happen with the GS2.
Anonymous, 03 Mar 2011galaxy S did get a update from 2.1 to 2.2.Yeah it did but how long did it take it to FINALLY get it? And thats just ONE sammy phone. What about the others? Will they ever be updated? WP7 is updating Sammy right away why cant Android? LololOloLol Android on Sammy is a failure. WP7 is a bigger failure but at least Sammy gets updates on time. LololoLolol
