kebark Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 The rumoured date is March 1st apparently :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagle6 Posted February 11, 2012 Author Share Posted February 11, 2012 Just spotted this to confirm your rumor. Eldar Murtazin has tweeted some interesting information regarding Ice Cream Sandwich to some of Samsung’s most popular phones but we’re not sure how to take it. According to him, the Samsung Galaxy Note and the Samsung Galaxy S2 will “officially” be getting Android 4.0 on March 1st. I won’t take his word on that “official” part but Murtazin has been reliable with several rumors in the past. If anything, it’s worthy to note that Samsung was well along with Ice Cream Sandwich for the Galaxy S II before most carriers with their flagship phones. Samsung also has a history of updating their unlocked international version fast despite a reputation of providing slow updates in the United States. It’s entirely possible that we could see Ice Cream Sandwich next month but we’re not going to take one man’s word on that. We’ll be trying to see what Samsung has to say about this. In the meantime, are you already running an Ice Cream Sandwich ROM on either of these devices? Let us know in the comments below! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjscfc Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Will the update be available for a manual update using Kies on March 1st even if it's not pushed through automatically until a later date? For example is 02 don't update my phone on 1st March, can I do this myself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Holt Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Here is the TalkAndroid article on the matter - http://www.talkandroid.com/89576-samsung-galaxy-s-ii-to-get-ice-cream-sandwich-on-march-1-galaxy-note-and-others-soon-thereafter/ Here's hoping you guys get to taste ICS soon :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stacy Bruce Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Your gonna love ICS. I wouldn't trade it for the world now that I have had it for a few months Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy653 Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Will we be able to do all that cool stuff like on the galaxy Nexus. Closing apps by swiping etc. Or will touch wiz eliminate that possibility and keep it the same using task manager? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshODonnell Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 I've been keeping tabs on this myself, since I'm a GSII droidy. Although the official approximate date is March 1st, remember that it's approximate. It also has to do with your carrier and if Samsung actually gets it out in time. This is just to be safe to make sure when March 1st rolls along and nothing happens, your head isn't falling off =P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjscfc Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Can anyone find any info on this? I can't find anything official that March 1st we will get it, I thought some announcement would have been made by now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stemarlen Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 1st of March is correct if you live in Israel. Samsung has stated that all Galaxy S 2's (carrier branded and international versions) will get the update. When the rest of us are going to get it is still a mystery, here's hoping by the end of Q2. PS. I'm in Australia so we are going to be about 6 years late at the rate we get stuff in Australia :( ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
