An update is available via Samsung Kies program that is said to address your faulty GPS  and before you download the update, know that T-Mobile has stated not to download the update from Kies and to wait for an official OTA update from them. They posted the following last night on Twitter:

If you haven’t downloaded the update from Kies, we must urge you not to as carriers are not responsible for those trigger-happy individuals. There is no word at the moment which issues T-Mobile is referring to, but we’re not too sure anyone wants to find out either. We’ll keep you guys posted when the official OTA update started hitting devices.

If you have already downloaded the update from Kies, we’re sure T-Mobile or the Android community will have a fix for you soon after the official OTA update.

What issues did the Kies update bring to your device?

If you are a little agitated with Samsung and T-Mobile because of the delayed OTA update for the Samsung Vibrant, you might rest a little easier as Samsung has stated on their Facebook page that more details regarding the OTA update will be coming next week.

T-Mobile and Samsung are hearing your questions regarding timing for the Vibrant software upgrade. We are continuing to work diligently to provide you with improvements in an effort to provide you with a high quality experience. We plan to have more information to share next week regarding timing on when these updates will be delivered to customers over-the-air. Thank you for your patience.

Hopefully soon after, they’ll be pushing out an OTA update to address some of the issues we’ve been having including a GPS fix. Samsung recently stated that an update for the Vibrant was available on their Kies program, but T-Mobile quickly urged people to wait for an official OTA update from them. It’s good to know that both T-Mobile and Samsung are aware of the deep frustration this issue is causing customers. Other than the GPS issue, what are some other issues you are experiencing with your Vibrant?
