[News] Insider confirms S2 won't get Android 1.6

[mckeowngoo]

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)

Don't post such spam. Some pie-brains might really fall for it; They're gonna be like, "Oh shetz im no gonna get 1.6 key lime pie! <3"

...and one fulz thanked the OP. *sarcastic slow clap*

So, let them. This will at least make it a bit funny, rather than just plain annoying...

Make that two.

LOL... 1.6 on S2!

See what I made in PhotoShop. If the S2 actually would get Android 1.6, it would look like this:

It's a joke. Just a counter post to all the "Samsung will release x.x.x" threads that have been cluttering the forum.

Saying that, 1.6 looks quit good!

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 only miss one thing, the new weather widget.
