The Infuse 4G now has a Gingerbread 2.3.6 update available for those of you still running stock. Along with the news of Gingerbread finally making its way to the device, there are plenty other additions included:

The upgrade to Android 2.3.6 for the Samsung Infuse 4G™ (i997) provides the following customer benefits and will be available starting February 1^st:

•             Improved Copy and Paste functionality

•             New Widgets: The name of the content provider will be listed on the widget list along with the widget name. Previously only the widget name was provided.

•             New Widget: Traffic (Android) added to list of available widgets

•             Menu Changes/New Apps: Downloads and Google Books added new, Promotional pre-load of Angry Birds removed*.

*Note: The update will remove the promotional Angry Birds pre-load from the device. If you’ve started playing the game, you would need to re-download from the Marketplace and start from the beginning of the game.

Awe man, your Angry Birds game will go away, what a drag. I am sure you will survive. The update is alive and kicking, but Samsung has yet to make it active. In order to get the update installed you will need to have Samsung Kies Mini installed to your PC and connect your device via USB cable. There will be an update button located on the software’s home screen. Once the update is finalized, the button will no longer be grayed out and you can update away.
