After what must seem like forever, owners of the Samsung Fascinate will finally get an OTA update tomorrow for Android 2.2. Starting Thursday, Fascinate owners can head over to Settings>About Phone >System Updates and they will be a click away from receiving Froyo OTA.
Besides enabling the device to show Flash video and animation, Android 2.2 also allows some apps to be stored on a microSD card. The upgrade will also allow for faster browsing on sites using JavaScript, correct upper and lower case letters on sentences typed using Swype, gives you the choice to have your apps automatically upgraded, and preloads VCAST apps and Samsung Media hub on your device among other improvements. For a look at the changelist, click on the sourcelink.
As we reported, the Android 2.2 upgrade was expected to reach Fascinate owners back on February 22nd, and even then it was considered long overdue. But if everything goes as planned tomorrow, all of that will be long forgotten by happy Samsung Fascinate owners.
If all goes as planned, Samsung Fascinate owners will finally get the Android 2.2 upgrade on Thursday
