Android 2.2 Froyo Update for Samsung Captivate Released and Pulled

Now I know that many Samsung Galaxy S smartphone users over in the US of A have been waiting for the Android 2.2 Froyo update to hit their chosen device, and apparently Samsung Captivate owner had a brief taste of the Froyo update earlier as Sammy finally made the update available.

According to an article over on the Boy Genius Report, Samsung released the Android 2.2 Froyo update for Samsung Captivate users, but apparently Samsung has slapped Captivate user right in the kisser by pulling the update.

Yes folks it appears that once again your hopes of playing nice with Android 2.2 Froyo on your Samsung Captivate have been well and truly dashed by the incompetence of Samsung.

Annoying at best, cruel at worst, Samsung just can’t seem to get releasing operating systems right these days as is evidenced by complaints over the Samsung Epic 4G and Samsung Vibrant Froyo update. When clicking the read link on the BGR the page comes up ” System error is occured in current page.”

No word from Samsung as to why they pulled the update, but then that’s nothing unusual is it? Fell free to vent your undying anger at Samsung in our comments area below.
