        useless version, after update, use driver unfound, call the services center also cany help and no driver at they website also, they advice to me is bring the phone to the services center and reinstall version 2.3.5. if you using phone as modem, better dont update to this useless "unknow" version!

                            in fact, my SG1 got official GB update ahead of ANY brands(Moto, HTC, SE or whatever). why can't i love Samsung, especially for the after service department.

                                  but i think they are in plan to provide ICS so they are not bothering to update it right now

                                        still stuck on ret4rded 2.3.3, no gtalk video calls & battery issue!
