Google begins pushing Android 2.3.3 (Gingerbread) to Nexus One, Nexus S

Software

This is definitely the advantage to owning Google’s anointed developer phone. Via a tweet, the Android maker announced that it has begun pushing out Gingerbread — Android 2.3.3 — to Nexus S and Nexus One handsets via an over-the-air update. The Big G does caution that the rollout may take a “few weeks,” but knowing the Android community, a link for a manual download will surface in the next 24 to 48 hours. Go ahead, hit that “Check for Updates” button a few times… you know you want to.

      I do jackass…my Nexus One is still better than 95% on the market and I see that trend to continue well into 2011

        Then Android and its 200 other devices has failed. Thanks for clearing that up.

        Former N-1 user here with a N-S and you are nuts. There are plenty of phones that are better then N1. I loved the N-1 man but you are definitely clowning. Lets not forget that multi-touch issue which makes gaming annoying as hell on the phone.

      It was “coming soon” a few months ago. Now it’s here.

    a “few weeks” sounds like an extra long time for this. I wonder if there using that as an excuse to work out bugs for an extra week or two.

      no it’s because people expect all phones to have it in one day.

    I hate knowing when the update is being rolled out because I have the urge to check my phone every second in hopes that the update has downloaded. This is exactly what I’m doing now. I hope there’s a manual install link soon, my N1 has been waiting.

    Wonder how long is it going to take to update the rest of the 2010 phones.
