Nexus One getting Android 2.2 Froyo update first

Google are to roll out the Android 2.2 Froyo update to Nexus One handsets in the coming days. The long-awaited update will, unsurprisingly, be hitting the search giant’s own branded handset before any other device.

According to the Google blog:

“This update provides some great new features including support for making your handset a portable hotspot and support for Adobe Flash within the browser.

“In order to access the update, you will receive a message on your phone’s notification bar. Just download the update, wait for it to install, and you should be all set. This update will be rolled out gradually to phones – and most users will receive the notification by the end of the week . We hope you enjoy these new features.”

It will be a gradual roll out, likely hitting US T-Mobile customers first. Let us know how you get along with the update in the next few days by leaving a comment below.
