                                To Update your Device

                                Make sure your device is fully charged!

                                BE sure to backup all your data!



                                Step one

                                Download the latest version of Kies

                                Step two

                                Fully charge your Galaxy 3

                                Step three

                                if it does not give you an update, check for update manually by clicking the update button in the bottom row.

                                Step Five

                                        I went to all Samsung sites for all countries to find out that they have uploaded the manual for Gingerbread. All servers should be uploaded with Gingerbread update anytime soon. At least till the end of April.
