Not a ton of good news this week for Samsung handset owners awaiting software updates. Just three days after a highly-anticipated, Android 2.2 update began flowing to Epic 4G handsets, the code has pulled from update servers. Citing increased support calls, Sprint is looking to find the root cause of several, pesky problems.

“The issues being reported are related to data connectivity following the upgrade and SD card issues when attempting to access photos, music, etc,” reads a moderator forum post. “If you are experiencing these issues, a hard reset has been reported to resolve the problems.”

Hard reset?! Ouch. No word on who/what is at fault or when the update might be ready to download again.

    Back in froyo 2.1 some samsung epics showed a choice to select which groups that a contact should belong in. Mine did not. Some did.

    Now in 2.2 I have not found any phones that give this selection choice.

    I called Samsung and they told me that they are aware of this issue and are working to fix it.

    Does anyone have this working on 2.2?

    Thanks,

    Am I just being paranoid, or could they be sending-then-pulling the update just to validate not sending it months ago when they first promised, and when everyone else on Earth got it?
