I posed yesterday about the Android Froyo 2.2 update and it seems that allot of people are running about the net looking for an answer to why they haven't received their update yet. Here it is in short: Any Google phone users running HTC Sence or some other on-top software will have to wait a bit longer for their manufacturer to approve and tweak their handsets software to co-exist with 2.2. As well as this anyone running a device that is a locked, branded handset from a UK carrier like Orange, O2, Vodaphone, T-mobile will have to wait longer again. Vodaphone have so far been the only one to respond to this saying that the Froyo update won't be until around September time, whereas Orange and O2 have remains silent. Good news though for 3UK users as most 3 handsets are unlocked and unbranded so they will receive their updates today. This may be a major buzzkill (major buzzkill salute) for most UK HTC desire users as they are going to have to wait a bit longer.
To sum up: Don't get to excited as the update is only for unlocked handsets at this point. Operator specific handsets still have to undergo testing so i expect the update to appear in several weeks time. HTC hero users on Orange still should receive parts of their 2.1 update in this next week. So unless you paid out-right for the likes of the HTC Desire, you may be waiting a few weeks. NOOO!
