Q. I have At&t service and I have a smart phone now that I turned off the networking so that it doesn't have the added data charge and only uses wifi for internet usage.. Is it possible to buy an At&t Samsung Galaxy s3 and do the same thing?
A. The Samsung Galaxy S III is a multi-touch, slate-format smartphone running the Android operating system. It is designed, developed, and marketed by Samsung Electronics. It sees additional software features, expanded hardware, and a redesigned physique from its predecessor, the Samsung Galaxy S II. The S III employs an intelligent personal assistant, eye-tracking ability, increased storage, and a wireless charging option. Depending on country, the 4.8-inch smartphone comes with different processors and RAM capacity, and 4G LTE support.The device was launched with Android 4.0.4 "Ice Cream Sandwich", and can be updated to Android 4.1
Galaxy s3 is better than iphone 5.
Does anyone know how to upgrade the software for a Samsung Galaxy S Blaze?
Q. I have a Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G with the Gingerbread Android version (2.3.6). Does anyone know how to upgrade this type of phone to the Ice Cream Sandwich software OS (4.0.4) or have proper instructions for it?
A. This is how it was for me...
The update to ICS came from Samsung and not the carrier (T-Mobile). You need to download Samsung Kies (http://www.samsung.com/us/kies/) to your computer and connect your phone via USB. When you connect your phone to your computer and turn on Kies, it should recognize your phone automatically. From there, you can check for the firmware update. It'll download the update to your computer then you should be able to apply it to the phone.
How do you get the Ice Cream Sandwich update?
Q. I have Sprint's Samsung Galaxy SII Epic 4G Touch, which is apparently going to be eligible for the Ice Cream Sandwich (Android 4.0) update sometime during the beginning of 2012. I've never had a smartphone before, so I don't know how this updating works. Will I get some type of notification on my phone, or will I have to manually update something when it becomes available? And is this update free? Thanks!
A. I'm in the same boat. Most likely it would be an OTA (over the air) update that would just show up one day as a prompt on your phone, asking if you would like to apply the update. Not unlike the firmware update that was released earlier this month to fix a couple issues. Just be careful though. Applying updates can brick (kill) the phone so it's best to backup your important contacts (sync to gmail) and other files from the phone (pics, vids, etc.) before applying any update. I read something that suggested that we should get Ice Cream Sandwich in the first half of 2012, but don't hold your breath...Sprint and Samsung are notoriously slow at releasing updates for their phones. In fact Samsung recently announced that they won't be releasing Ice Cream Sandwich for the Samsung Galaxy S, at all, which angered many who have that phone. But Samsung claimed that was based on hardware shortcomings of that phone, but the SII has much more robust hardware so it should come eventually, I hope.
