I will say ...
We have to look at nexus s first

Officially? Maybe.
CM7 Version? Most definitely.
For now you guys might want to try the ICS Launcher. It's currently taken down from the Market, but if you Google it you can still download it from their website for free...

Beware the ICS launcher - the one I downloaded requested permission to dial out, so I didn't take any risk and deleted it immediately.

I believe all lauchers do.

I guess ICS source code should be published first , in order for the cm7 team adopts it.

I think our phone will get ICS officially from samsung.Dont forget SGS was samsung flagship and it is this phone only that turned samsung into android champion.You see samsung is updating SGS as fast as SGS II

I think we will and should get it as galaxy s has a very capable hardware.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium

Think so. have nothing official to base this statement on but I really think so. i'm not seeing google leaving nexus s on 2.3 without an update to ICS, even with a new phone coming up, and galaxy s has just about the same hardware.

And they want to avoid fragmentation so they should update us as well.

I read somewhere that any device capable of running gingerbread would be updated to ICS

I don't see any reason they won't provide an update to ICS... after all this phone was produced merely about a year ago, and is still one of the best (despite the fact that Samsung completely messed up with the RFS file system...) .

Ive also heard that any device capable of running GB will be able to run ICS, however the only thing that may hold the phone back is the limited ram :/
I do however hope we get ICS!!!

Maybe here ?
"At Google I/O I asked the Android team if Ice Cream Sandwich had any special hardware requirements that would prevent it from running on existing smartphones. They didn’t name specific handsets, but we were told that most phones which could run Android 2.3 would be able to handle the update. That doesn’t guarantee anything for current Android smartphone owners, but we expect Google’s own Nexus One and Nexus S will be some of the first devices upgraded to Android 4.0."
source: androidandme.com
This is interesting too:
"If you are a fan of custom ROMs, then you will be happy to know that Google plans to release Ice Cream Sandwich to the Android Open Source Project. Google typically releases the source code to each version of Android a few months after it debuts on a new device, but they chose not to do this with Honeycomb. Andy Rubin said Google wanted to prevent developers from putting the software on phones “and creating a really bad user experience. We have no idea if it will even work on phones.”
Ice Cream Sandwich will be available for the development community to hack to their hearts’ content and I’m sure we will see CyanogenMod 8 a month after the source code is public."
...............And maybe that Samsung could surprise us with a ICS firmware for i9000...

I think our SGS will get ICS officialy, btw I don't think it will bring any major improvement (as happened with gingerbread).
However it would be better to be updated because some new apps probably will only work on ICS.

One big: Hardware accelerated UI (and the sgx540 still a really good gpu).
After that, i think you can say it's smoother than ever on your i9000

Why would launcher need to dial out? You have a dialer / phone apk for that, I guess.

Android 4.0.1 Ice Cream Sandwich coming for......

More ICS News are coming from Samsung mobile, the Latest rumor informed that Samsung Will Upgrade all Gt-I9XXX series to the Android 4.0 Ice cream Sandwhich in the Upcmoing period Which Includes Samsung Galaxy S, Nexus S and Galaxy SII, Google also announce that all android smartphone which already got official 2.3.3 update will also work with ICS like any other Update. But we Still waiting to get an official announcement from Samsung. Mostly, Samsung Galaxy S will get the same ICS version of the Galaxy Nexus which is 4.0.1 but I am not sure about the touchwiz UI of samsung
www.youmobile.org/blogs/entry/Samsung-to-Update-Galaxy-S-Nexus-S-and-Galaxy-S-II-to-Android-4-0-ICS

google already announced that during Samsung Mobile Unpacked 2011
Matias Duarte think most Gingerbread devices will see an upgrade, saying: "Currently in the process for releasing Ice Cream Sandwich for Nexus S. Theoretically should work for any 2.3 device
Click to expand...

so not much of a news here, nothing that we do not know already ;]

Somator, why do u take every thing so negatively. Its a glimmer of hope for sgs isn't that good.
Also Matias duarte said that most gingerbread devices will be able to handle ics but here the site is saying that Google believes that all 2.3.3 devices can handle ics properly.
But isn't that opposing their own announcement that nexus one wont get ics. Its either the news is fake or Google are not sure themselves or are rethinking on nexus one.

Jelly Bean Google Android Update

devgee said:
Close on the heels of Google Executive Chairman Eric Schmidt announcing the arrival of the upcoming version of Android OS termed Ice Cream Sandwich in October or November, speculations have started on the next version of Android.
According to a report citing trusted sources in 'This is My Next', Jelly Bean is the working name for next incarnation of Android.
The name follows Google's tradition of calling its Android operating systems after sweets in alphabetical order. Earlier versions of Android follow a typical order -- Cupcake 1.5, Donut 1.6, Eclair 2.1, Froyo 2.2, Gingerbread 2.3, Honeycomb 3.0 and the upcoming Ice Cream Sandwich.
The report quotes industry source saying, that the "game-changing stuff" that had originally been scheduled for Ice Cream Sandwich will be being pushed to Jelly Bean. Jelly Bean could be dubbed Android 4.5 or Android 5.0, depending on the amount of features packed, says the report.
Ice Cream Sandwich is expected to be a universal operating system that will work on phones, tablets, TVs, and even phones that transform into laptops. Among other things, the OS is likely to bring an updated app launcher, holographic user interface, interactive and new homescreen widgets and a multi-tasking panel.

Android 5.0 Coming in Autumn!

Well well now, it seems that Android 5.0 (code named Jelly Bean) is scheduled for release in November. Go take a lookie see. This may be old news for some of ya, but I just got the news. ;-)

Rumor? Not official? I've also heard that Jelly Bean will be 4.1 and won't be a huge change or require any additional resources?

That makes a lot more sense then 5.0 because if it was 5.0 updates of ics would be 4.1 not 4.0.4 like honey comb was

I'd agree that it will probably be 4.1, but Google can't just sit back and not make big changes. I expect huge news. Its the 5th anniversary of Android. There are rumors of 5 nexus devices. Windows 8 launches around the same time, as will ios6 which will probably have significant changes. Google can't sit still and pull a gingerbread type update.

There's nothing to say the new os will require any higher resources or more space though. Especially since everything about it is rumor.

That's what I heard also. Since 4.0 was a major UI change from previous versions of Android im sure whatever is next, whether it be 4.1 or 5.0, will just be small changes with few new features at the most..

Google can't keep making gaping changes without further exacerbating the fragmentation problem. I'd more expect Jellybean to be 4.1 than 5.0.
It'd be stupid of them to spend all the time overhauling the interface for ICS only to overhaul it again. The mass market doesn't like change in the interactivity of the device.
I expect far larger enhancements in usability. Further enhancements to ICS social network integration. Better syncing and integration with google drive (camera syncing). Maybe Google Chrome integration.
Sounds like the bulk of the focus will be buying from Google directly (maybe all carriers?)

What really grabbed me about this thread is that the word autumn is in the title. I call it fall. Is that just a midwest thing? I don't think I've heard it called that since grade school.

Considering that 4.2 is just the same JB line and hoping that Samsung won't turn his back on current customers I think that there is a 50/50 chance that we will get it.

You have to ask yourself, what features in 4.2 make it a worthwhile release for Samsung? Camera and lockscreen enhancements wouldn't be adopted because Samsung uses Touchwiz there. Notification shade enhancements could be adopted. No, this is a bigger update for vanilla users.

I would be happy if we get 4.1.1 first.

Yes it will be but not android 5.0
