Samsung Galaxy S II Touchwiz Ice Cream Sandwich Port Review - Epic 4G General

Hey everyone... I've made a review video of the leaked build for the Galaxy S II for Touchwiz ICS. It was ported to the NS4G.
Keep in mind it's just an early leaked build of Touchwiz ICS and I'm sure they'll be making more changes.
See the review video here:

Is it possible to port Cm7 to galaxy tab 10.1v? Would be great. ;-)

CM7, MIUI ... all great but without source for honeycomb not really
With the release of the Ice Cream Sandwich source they will get on the tablets for sure!

Moving to General
While it is probably possible to port CM7 to the tab 10.1, someone would need to do the work.
And I doubt anyone would want to port a phone OS to a tablet OS.
CM7 is gingerbread only, which is phone only (those 7 inch tablets running gingerbread don't make very good tablets to me).
I doubt honeycomb source will ever get released and thus not viable for cyanogen mod.
I would not be suprised however that cyanogen will port ice cream sandwich though, for which the source will be available. That might be called CM8 then.
This future CM8 may be ported to the tab 10.1 then...
However, if it ever comes, it will not be this year.

Samsung Offers Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich Upgrade for GALAXY devices

Samsung says: No Android ICS for SGS they are offering a value pack

So the communtiy have complained about samsung for not releasing a ics upgrade for the sgs.
But wait samsung see that the community have proven that it will be possible to have ics running on the sgs.
So Samsung will look in to it and they will maybe realese a ics for the sgs but withou the touchwiz or they are looking in to the touchwiz to make it lighter.
But hey the community have made a point against samsung to look in to it so the voice of the people is still strong.

Congratulations!!!!
You are first who wasn't able to read stickies, including first post in: Link for brave souls complaining/crying/laughing/running to mum with a shout: "Mummi, muumi, Samsung will give me Icecream Sandwich, I'm a h4ck0r!!!!!!11111"
delete this.
Samsung is putting together a value pack
No Update for galaxy s or the tab.
Samsung is putting together a value pack.
This pack uses apps from the ics so users have a taste of the ics version.

All that is included in another thread... I'm wondering: spamming is your hobby, or work?

ICS will be released late Q1, says Samsung

Just read on Samsung Norway's Facebook page that ICS for the Note and the SII will be released at the end of march.
"Samsung planlegger å lansere Android Ice Cream Sandwich til Galaxy S II og Galaxy Note mot slutten av første kvartal i år. Når mer info kommer så legger vi det ut her på vår Facebook-side!"

So.. now we know!
Yes!!! Cant wait.
Hmm, just noticed that i posted this in the Q&A section. Feel free to move it to General.
Not good news for me. I can't keep the same phone for 3 months! I'm sure I'll be back eventually though.
waiting for alpha release...
Yeah I wonder why we haven't seen a leak yet :-(

Hope so, cause after the 2.3.6 and La4 update when I go through the home screens they lag and jerk, they were so smooth and quick before the updates

I can't stay with the same partner for longer than 3 months either.
Whoops, wasn't the figure of speech I was going for.
I hate Samsung. They are doing this 4.0 firmware terribly slow. They don't care about us. All that interests them is money.
Why Huawei did 4.0 firmware so fast for 'Honor'?! Official and final release, but samsung can't even release alpha\beta of ICS! [mod edit - watch language].
I think Samsung Norway is just playing it safe.
Samsung announced Q1, why risk a backlash by promising a premature date. I highly doubt Samsung would choose to make such a statement through a Norwegian facebook page..
That being said.. ICS is probably not coming till late march in any case..

That means leaks will be coming spon hopefully.

I'm sure they are working on Touchwiz 5 for the GS3.
I really expect some official ICS news from them next month on MWC.
Like Asus did with their transformer on CES.
It will be a long wait,this Gingerbread OS thing needs a drastic change on our GNotes and soon.

official ice cream sandwich

Been searching around haven't seen any petition for Samsung to release ics to s1. Wonder that would help??

Stop beating the dead horse.
Knowledge is Power. Guard it well.
Samsung ain't gonna release it. END OF STORY
Doesn't matter, XDA guys are better than Samsung :
I'm running ICS 4.0.4 Dark knight 2.2 for few days and everythings are OK, no freeze, no lag, and my SGS is faster with this ROM than with the last 2.3.6 ROM
Yeah, I've ICSSGS and it's faster than stock JVT...
