Samsung Intercept users with Sprint will want to listen up — you have a new update available and it has just begun rolling out. And yes, it includes what many have likely been waiting for —Android 2.2 Froyo. The news comes by way of the Sprint user forums and specifically points out that this is ROLLING out.
In other words, it may take a few days before you see the update arrive. That said, you can either sit back and wait for the update notification to arrive on your phone or you can try and be pro-active. If you choose to take the pro-active route, grab your phone and head to Menu -> Settings -> About phoneSystem Updates -> Update Android and keep your fingers crossed.
As for the update itself, according to the forum posting from Sprint, the Software Version is S:M910.05.S.DL05 and the build version is Froyo.DL05. But aside from the boring software and build version numbers — you are getting Froyo. Plus, there are a few other goodies that are coming along with.
The other changes include fixes for Sprint Navigation as well as dropped calls after unacknowledged call and force close messages when opening up contacts. And while the Sprint Navigation is nice to see, I cannot help but think how many users simply use Google. Of course, that is not to say Sprint Navigation is bad and after all it is free so having two available options is probably better than one.
With that, so far it looks like this process is just barely underway, or at least that is how it looks based on the fact that the Sprint posting has very few messages and at this time we see no reports of success or failure — just a few people wondering where the update is. And given that, let us remind you once again, this is rolling out and will take some time before it gets out to everyone.
