Virgin will have to test it before rolling it out.

I think it's related to an imie number etc, I've been told you can use Odin but looks too dangerous, I'm used to lime rain etc from apple which was much easier

He wouldn't have to upgrade through Virgin, it would be done either via KIES or a update via the option on the phone itself

However it wouldn't happen until Virgin approved the update for the phones they have sold

Re: Very happy with new deal-Samsung Galaxy S2

Mine upgraded to 2.3.4 a couple of weeks ago, just after Samsung released 2.3.6. Which would need testing through VM before releasing. That may not happen though as VM may go straight to testing ICS as that's due out in Q1 2012.

Re: Very happy with new deal-Samsung Galaxy S2

I see the Samsung Galaxy S2 is no longer available on Virgin. A mate at work is gutted as his contract is coming to an end and he was going to get it.

Galaxy W and Ace are on there though.

Is why I hate carrier approved updates complete with unnecessary bloatware and go for a pure Google/Android experience every time.
