Vodafone releases Android 2.2.1 update for its Samsung Galaxy S

Vodafone UK has released an Android update for owners of the Samsung Galaxy S bought through the network, bringing Samsung’s popular Android phone up to version 2.2.1 of the OS. Here’s a snippet from the update notes published by Vodafone:
A new maintenance release for the Samsung Galaxy S is now available. This is an Android platform update to 2.2.1 which introduces a number of fixes and improvements which include;

Improved battery life
Improved device stability and performance
Improved Music Player, Email and other application launching speeds.
Improved connectivity with the KIES software




A subsequent announcement said that the calling option to specify “GSM only” mobile calls has been “left out in error” and will be added back in a later update. Whoops.
As you might expect, there’s a thread full of capital letters, sad smiley faces and anger about the lack of GSM options over on Vodafone’s forum.
