Galaxy S II getting Android 2.3.5 update from T-Mobile

For the Android faithful out there that have the T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II you might like to know that T-Mobile is gradually rolling out an update to devices in the form of Android 2.3.5 Gingerbread with software version T989VUVKL1, and will apparently be an over the air update to the smartphone.
According to the guys over at Ubergizmo, the Android 2.3.5 Gingerbread update will deliver several improvements that have been ‘based on customer feedback’ and thus will delivers such things as Caller ID enhancements, enhancements to WiFi calling along with battery improvement, says T-Mobile.
The Android 2.3.5 update for the T-Mobile version of the Samaung Galaxy S II isn’t compulsory, so if you are not experiencing and problems with your device you don’t have to install the update if you do not wish to.
The over the air update will apparently take some time for T-mobile to get it to all of their Galaxy S II customers so you’ll need to be a little patient on this one.
Now the downside of getting the Android 2.3.5 update is that you’ll have to grab it from Samsung Kies of course, something that many Samsung device users have a great deal of problems with as I have mentioned in several article before.
Anyway that’s all there is, if you own a Samsung Galaxy S II on T-Mobile keep an eye out for notification of the update becoming available to your device if you really want it, and feel free to let us know if all goes well if you do install it.

Samsung Galaxy Note LTE AT&T bound in 2012

Much like the Samsung Galaxy Nexus, the UK and Europe gained access to the Android device before our cousins over the pond in the USA, and it’s the same with Sammy’s hybrid smartphone/mini tablet, the Samsung Galaxy Note; however the word is the US will gain the Galaxy Note via AT&T at some point next year.
According to and article over on Phone Arena by way of the Pocket Now guys, AT&T will deliver the Samsung SGH-1717, which is a US version of the Android 2.3 Gingerbread Samsung Galaxy Note during CES.
Spec wise the word is the AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note will still retain that 5.3-inch 720p touch screen; however, will differ from the international model by sporting 4G LTE connectivity and will pack a Qualcomm 1.5GHz MSM8660 dual core processor due to Samsung’s Exynos chip not being compatible with LTE yet.
There’s no real word on what Android OS the AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note will ship with but it is expected it will ship with Gingerbread aboard and receive an update to Android Ice Cream Sandwich at a later point.
Other specs of the Samsung Galaxy Note include of course that S Pen stylus, 8 megapixel rear facing camera with LED flash, 2 megapixel front facing camera and 1080p video.
So will any of our readers over in the good old US of A be hoping to pick up the Samsung Galaxy Note LTE from AT&T once it becomes available?
