Samsung Galaxy SII i9100XWKE2 Firmware For Faster Swype

Samsung engineers have released the i9100XWKE2 firmware upgrade for your Samsung Galaxy SII. Although very new to the markets, and not released all over the world yet, Samsung's firmware developers aren't leaving a stone turned to keep the phone up to date and ahead of competition. Samsung was quick to release two updates in a short period of time. The first update makes Swype more responsive and  fixes connectivity issues reported by early adopters. The second update fixes the auto-brightness problem.

Samsung Galaxy S II updated: Swype swiftness, auto-brightness fix - Android Communityreports that the latest firmware is rootable which implies that the third part hacks will work fine on your phone. The procedure to upgrade your device's firmware is simple. Make sure that you have Samsung proprietary software KIES latest version (KIES will automatically notify you if you don't) and connect your phone to your PC or Mac. KIES will notify you about the availability of the upgrade. Follow the on screen instructions.

It seems that the OTA (Over The Air) upgrade does not work in this case so phone's inbuilt software updater won't show availability of new build. Please alert us if OTA update becomes available.
