The behold 2's android update to 1.6 started rolling out on June 21st and the main phase if the roll out ends on the 25th. After the main push ota's will roll out once a week until everyone recieves the update. Too little too late IMHO but it's something. Have you recieves the update yet? What do you think about it?

You'll be notified that there is an update. I have read from others to make sure to backup as much as you want, and remove SD card as it wipes it all, so they have cautioned. I have read that someone called Tmobile and they were told it had to be running on Touchwiz and 3g. So to answer you question, it will be like the bug fix.

Hello Samsung Behold II Users,

In partnership with Samsung, T-Mobile has completed the software build for updating the Behold II to Android 1.6.

The deployment of this software has begun and will occur each night from 11pm to 6am PST, from June 21st to June 25th.  The deployment may extend a little longer depending on network capacity, however no issues are expected.

In addition to the previously announced updates, there are several bug fixes included, resolving key issues that were provided via your feedback.  Some of these resolved issues include:

    * Unable to search contacts by last name.
    * LCD flickering/static when unlocking the device.
    * Memory card issues, including:  “Erased” or blank cards, and the “Unsupported File System” error notice when accessing the memory card.

Please keep the following in mind when waiting to receive and subsequently installing the update:

    * To receive the update:

          o The device cannot be “rooted”.
          o The device must still be running the TouchWiz interface (programs such as “aHome” bypass TouchWiz).
          o The device must have received the first software update release.
      After receiving the update, ensure the device is charged to at least 50%.  The install will not begin before sufficient charge is reached.

For those that haven't gotten it by now, well it currently has been pulled from T-Mobile's servers. Some updates were causing bricks. Samsung Executive Customer Relations representative told me last week that you can send your phone in to them to get flashed to 1.6, that was me speaking with Tiffany. There are however some that have reported getting 1.6 on exchange phones. I am getting an exchange tomorrow for the issues I am having and will report on that. It's unfortunate that the people with the biggest resources and that initially cried foul, have gotten free replacement phones through some means, mostly with T-Mobile they have reported. So now any support we had is or has vanished in a voice by numbers sort of way. I find that any future issues will be squashed by the Galaxy S Vibrant. How unfortunate it is! I really do like this phone but I bought the phone back in November on other buyer expectations. Just sad to see such a short lived life for technically a decent if not better phone than most.
