I5700 Galaxy Spica/lite officially gets Android 2.1

anyone know when the update is suppose to be available globally?


EDIT: just found out for Rogers in Canada that the 2.1 update won't be ready till the middle of June at the earliest. BLAHG!!!!
 
I get the same and can not connect to server but I'm used to it saying this I wish I lived in norway

Pitty I'm not from Norway.
It says: the device does not support software updates

Send your devices to me together with a nice sum of cash (gold and diamonds also accepted), and I will update it for you and ship it back (probably):p;)

Anyway,I'm so sorry for your loss (for not living in norway). But if there is only the update you are longing for, then I for one would probably not move to norway.

I only hope you get the official update soon!!
 
Rivisio: Really? Mid June!? *insert long winded "No"*

I'm trying really really hard not to try and root my phone regardless but I bought an extra 3 year warranty on mine (and it does say in the terms and conditions) that if I root my phone it'll void that warranty. Suppose its my fault for jumping into the "pond" without checking to see what was going on with android - of course had Bell decided to replace my phone instead of extending their "loyalty date" by another six months I wouldn't have this issue.

Is the the 3d performace any better on this one? I today just put I570EXXJD4 and the 3d is much much better!
 
Romanian simlocked phone (Orange)
Firmware 1.5
Baseband version i5700BVJA1
Kernel version 2.6.27 root@SE-S608 )
Build number CUPCAKE.BVJA1

he means 2.1, which I guess at this moment refers to ppl in Norway and Germany, there's not a 3rd Euro country yet is there?
 
How can I test the 3d? I don't think I got any 3 apps?

You can download some demo games but I guess if you didn't do it before it might be difficult to see any 'difference'.. but have a go with raging thunder. See if it can even render the cards. Before i found that it couldn't even render the graphics. Now it can. Still not perfect but much better.
 
In Slovenia the official update is the JD1. The official Samsung Service Center updates to that firmware. Has anyone tried the JD4 firmware? What are your opinions about it?

Seems to be not too much different. 3d does seem better but could be my imagination on second thoughts. The whole thing IS a little faster though it seems. There is no 3d gallery and the gallery app seems slow still. Have you managed to put the 3d gallery on?
 
I havent tried 3d gallery, i dont use it. But is there anything other, are there newer versions of the apps such as google maps,etc?
 
hmm .. the movie player seems different, but just cosmetically. I wonder why they make these different versions if they are installing one version on the phones.. Not tried google maps but that updates by itself anyway when you go into the marketplace and click on downloads it often says updates available..
 
Just installed JD1 on my T-Mobile UK Galaxy Portal.

All running smooth with no problems.

@Beerkan

Apparently you have installed the JD4 version, not JD1. But it seems to be built on JD1. How is it?
