Ice Cream Sandwich is coming!

Google and Motorola and AT&T have partnered to bring quick and latest updates to the Atrix for 18 months past release date! That means we'll be getting all os updates between now Sept. 2012!

In 18 months this phone is going to hopelessly old and outdated, no matter what software the release.
And I think that statement refereed to new phones.

There's another thread talking about this already. The answer is that it's not guaranteed. This only applies to NEW devices being released. Since the Atrix was release a couple of months back, this doesn't apply.

In 18 months it will be running the same version as brand new devices released during that time.

NOT TRUE! Watch it again, he said "..all new phones..". I would assume that means from today on out. They also used the words "hardware has to allow the update". So speculate all you want but dont post incorrect statements like they are fact.

Yeah I started my post, had to run and didn't know there was a similar post before I hit submit.
New and capable...atrix fits that bill.

Let's all hope we get Ice Cream Sandwich.

No. The Atrix doesn't. Is it capable? Probably, but it's definitely not new i.e. new and capable vs. new OR capable.

Here's an updated Engadget article. If you notice they specifically mention that this applies to new devices only. There's no guarantee ICS for the Atrix, unless Moto comes out and says it. Anyway, more clarification on this subject would be great.

Theres no reason to worry if we get it or not. If we do then great. But why are we worrying about this when we havnt even gotten gingerbread. I'll be happy with a dual core friendly OS. By the time ICS is ready we will all be upgrading or upgraded already.

I think 18 months is when we are going to get the update

to 2.3

I'd be willing to bet 2.3 hits early to mid June. Not known fact but given the quickness they've already released updates for the Atrix, they really have little reason to hold out on this.

Would you be referring to 2.3 Gingerbread or ICS? Although google never gave ICS an official number (AFAIK), for all we know it'll be 2.3.X. If your referring to Gingerbread, that would make sense, in theory, but as Moto got Honeycomb early, for all we know they could have gotten ICS before Google oficially announced it and they could be putting the final touches on it right now. But that is all hopeful speculation.
More likely than not we'll get ICS around July to August.
Just my 2 cents.

I bet I can have 2 kids with the same woman before we get 2 updates to the core android os.

God I hate all the naysayers always trying to be negitive. There is a very good chance that this will apply to us.

I think Atrix does fit the bill. When the SGS2 arrives on ATT ...that would be a "new" release. Does that mean GS2's hardware is that much newer than the Atrix? If the SGS2 gets these updates...I'm sure the Atrix will too...

I wouldn't get too excited. They don't even know how they are going to accomplish this yet. It's nice to see an effort from carriers and Google, but this is just something they threw together to present at I/O. There are no details.

I need to amend what I said earlier. I have done a bit more research and have come to find ICS slated for Q4 so about then we should get ICS (October maybe? A birthday preasent for me? ). We *may* see GB in th July/August mark.

Atrix hardware will clearly support it. There will be newer phones released in the next 6 months...and pretty sure the hardware won't be better than the Atrix. How many dual cores are on the market now? Moto set the bar with Atrix...upcoming phones are trying to match it or make it look "better" by overlooking their chips

ICS to be released for Galaxy S2 on March 10

This is good news for us. The update is only for the International model of the Galaxy S2. With an official ICS release on hardware identical to ours, the talented devs over here will have something stable to work with. Check out phandroid for more info.

You do know that the details are also on Samsung's website as well right?

THought we get a ics update a month later? The china leak is fine until samsung release the notes ics. Hopefully a better leak will get released.
Wasnt the leaks for sgs2 used to patch up cm9 alpha build for note? I wouldnt expect stable until the notes version is released.

Until I've seen at least one more N7000 leak I doubt we're less than a month away from getting the ICS update.
I would expect to see at least 2-3 leaks for the Intl version before the real thing is released...

Here is the link to Samsungs anouncement for the SII

That's one thing I miss from iOS: instant updates. None of that waiting and uncertainty BS.

Lol, I agree with the uncertainty it sucks big time. But, but wtf all of the Android phone company's does the same thing. The big mystery about Android is just that we never know what to expect, we might even get an alien biological phone from Google here next

Worder why you guys talking about Galaxy SII in this forum, this is Note forum

because if GS2 gets ics,note will be next one.

And the big news is?? Both get ICS sooner or later

You will find that Samsung have since released a statement saying march 10th is not actually confirmed so this post is now nonsense unfortunately. no date has yet been set for the release.
As someone has already mentioned I see! Didn't notice that before posting.

ICS Update Release Date Game!

As you know SE said that ICS would be released around april/may, and as its april now, I thought id make a thread about it, CAN YOU GUESS WHEN A FULL STABLE VERSION OF ICS WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR THE PLAY? DROP YOUR DATES DOWN BELOW!

My Guess.
May 26.

Sometime during june. It's Sony. They take a long time with everything
Sent from my R800a using Tapatalk

Never is my guess

I think people need to relax. So its been bumped back a little bit. Give S(E) credit for even making ics for our phones. There are phones with the same specs or more power thy are not even going to see ics. My nephew has the Samsung infuse and its still stuck on froyo. It came out a year ago. Our phones clear with gingerbread out the door so already we were lucky. Just relax people it will happen when it happens..

if u read it it says there are announce on 29th not launch it and samsung did't mess up launch for ICS it was threads like this that got people going with unconfirmed dates

i dont mean they messed up the release date , they messed up the actual ics release for the noteit made it buggy and slow ..... hence why i have the s3 now
it says that it will be announced on the 29th and start rolling out after the event .. the event is usually mid afternoon so i expect that we will start getting it after that !!!

Closed.. this has been covered before!
