Official GS2 ICS on 15th March - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General

Hi, just read this article.
http://www.androidcentral.com/samsung-israel-says-galaxy-s-ii-ics-update-coming-mar-15
Hopefully it will be the same for us.
The news comes from the official Israel facebook

Well the note has a couple of specific functions that the SII don't have, so let's cross our fingers that we don't have to wait any further

I doubt it, I would expect to see a few more leaks before a real on is out.

Samsung has promised release BEFORE the end of 1st quarter!
31 march is deadline! Hope they did not betray and lie us.

Sweet! I could care less about spen, so this should require minimal difficulty to port.

Where did you get this information?
Samsung Italy believes otherwise:
http://android.hdblog.it/2011/10/28...android-4-0-su-galaxy-s2-note-e-tab-nel-2012/

I hope the dev's @ Samsung manage to get out the Note update asap, aside from the resolution, 1.4 instead of 1.2 ghz and a few apps the Sgs 2 and Note are pretty similar to each other...

isnt nexus s gonna get before galaxy s2?
Seeing how long it took the Galaxy S to get Gingerbread, I'll take this chart with a heaping tablespoon of salt.
Also, no way will the Nexus S get ICS after the S2 (one of the benefits of a pure Google device is quicker updates).

It's certainly a nice table someone put together. The site's done in broken english and there's no source for the information. The info's not provided anywhere else on the web and while all the devices listed were previously announced by Samsung as being upgraded they refused to provide a timeline. And ICS for the SGS2 in four to six weeks, seriously? The Nexus, the ICS launch phone, isn't even going to be released in the U.S. until December. Color me skeptical.

As much as I would love to believe this, I can't.
I'm expecting ICS in forever and a day, that way if it comes a day earlier than expected the wait will still seem like forever.
However I think January 23 is when it will be rolled out.

yes samsung and others have confirmed ics for some of their devices already out but no dates have officaly been confirmed have they
that site is very misleading to me bbecause come december everyone is now going to be going where is ics , when really that date has been picked out of the air as a random date by someone
i cant see an offical samsung build coming till next year , now the devs on this forum on the other hand are making great leaps to getting a full working version on the sgs2

Samsung has to say that there will be an update, otherwise no one will buy it. Thankfully we have devs who actually care about making the most out of the product. I'm not hating on Samsung. Every OEM does it.

Manufacturers usually don't announce something and take it away. If they don't want to offer something or aren't sure they just say it's "under consideration." For months sometimes. In addition the U.S. carriers have all published a list of Samsung devices to be updated and all the G-Tabs other than the original 7" are on it. If Samsung was just kidding I'd doubt they'd take the U.S. carriers down with them.

So true. I've had the same experience with different manufacturers, and they are pretty much the same, depending on which device you choose. As soon as they have new products on the market, they tend to put other products on the backburner. Sad but true. Only thing you can do to create a difference, is complaining to the manufacturers again and again, and not on forums.. that want do nothing for nobody..
Still put my two cents in Samsung.. so we can get a working camera

Dont forget you will have to UNROOT to get the OTA when it is released

If only it would please them to stop competing with LG for the Delayed Update Award, we'd be in business.
What freaks me out is we still havent seen a single leak.. while its by far the most popular 1st gen Android tablet.
The only reason I see for this is "a" build exists, it isnt being tested anywhere but in Samsung very own labs;
Not a single carrier or anything close to it has yet got to test it on its network. =(
I dont see it poping up on my tab overnight even if Bell says I should be hopefull. This is going to be a long summer.
Guys, you'll get your update, the TAB 10.1 is a popular device and all the 2011 line got the update or is getting it...
See my situation :
- My Tab 10.1v wil NEVER get updated.
- My EU Atrix will probably NEVER get updated while the US will get the update...late 2012.
- My wife's Ray got the update : it's filled with bugs, features that are not activated (auto light, auto flash) and it's super slow although the device is barely less powerful than the Nexus S.
So shut up, spoiled kids...
I hope Samsung will not act like Motorola.

That would put them well over 2 months late. When they first announced it they said 1Q which would of been March. Now I feel they are sitting on the update until the tab 10.1 v 2 has had some time to sell. They are basically the exact same hardware.

I talked to Samsung this morning via online chat. I asked at the end of my question what the status was on the ICS update. They said that the engineers were finalizing the update and should roll out soon!

That went well for the original Galaxy Tab. They really couldn't care less. It seems each device gets 1 major update. Maybe well get it as its rolling out fairly soon, but I'm not holding my breath.
On a side note, we've got quite a bounty to claim if Samsung deliver an update.

It's very common in our community to dramatize a bit and being too pessimistic. People that mention i9000's example seem to forget that galaxy s got:
- 7 major firmware updates (2.1, 2.2, 2.2.1, 2.3.3, 2.3.4, 2.3.5 and 2.3.6- two years after release!!!!)
- To compare Galaxy S2 has received 5 such so far (2.3.3, 2.3.4, 2.3.5, 2.3.6 and 4.0.3). So I really don't understand what this pessimism is all about? Why should Samsung suddenly abandon the crown king of 2011 exactly at this moment, 14 months after release?

I agree completely... I think there is a good chance we will see 4.1... no one was really expecting jb just 6 months after ics and as mentioned since this was their flagship, there's a good chance they will hook us up just to keep hold of the loyal customers... if samsung knew jb was so nearby they probably wouldn't even have bothered giving us a ics update and jumped to jelly...!!

I think you may be right and I will tell you why!!!
In australia there are Pre-orders going on for the new Samsung Galaxy LTE QUAD +2 GB Ram and delivery Date set for the 20th September. Which I have Ordered the Titanium Grey 32GB unlocked version of someone I know . And On the specs it says Software - 4.1.1 JELLY BEAN.. I asked one of the customer service and they confirmed it will be shipped with the new 4.1.1 Jelly bean. So 100% the official will be out atleast 1week before the 20th which is approximately 12th September
Jelly bean here we come!!!

Updates have usually been a slow drip starting with a few European countries and gradually rolled out followed by a network roll out . Pointless trying to grab attention of Apple lovers or even keep Android users happy by releasing on that date .
One thing is certain all those who have posted xx date for JB release have been wrong to date .

Generally the country code does not matter as long as your language is included and as long as your language is a widely spoken one like English, German, French or Spanish this should be the case with every release.

My guess is that it'll be released when jellybean gets released for GS2s with DBT. It's strange what's happening with jellybean on our little brother as it's only been released for 3 CSCs yet.

Bit of a rant: somewhat disappointed with the eternal delays. Don't really care for JB specifically as much as the touchwiz enhancements, improved Samsung keyboard (swiping+numbers row in one) and contact load up delay fix.
When the original Note came out, everybody said forget about touchwiz upgrades, Samsung never did it in the past, upgrading to another major version. We kind of accepted it. The majority of us were still content with having this little (big) wonder.
And then came some touchwiz updates with ICS. Shortly after, we were promised S III and Note 2 like features in the JB update. That was when? back in October or November? Which kind of set our hopes high, and got me thinking 'Well done Samsung, that's a good one'
Now it's just silly how low a priority Samsung has given the Note following the Note 2 release. Although I hate how apple controls and restricts its devices, you got to give it to them: they do maintain a reasonably steady stream of updates.
So here's hoping Germany's will be out somewhat faster than 1st of March (or a little later, or whenever, or whatever )
If you're buying a flagship device (like the Note and GS2 were) then you should expect at least 2 major OS updates imo. iPhones normally get 2 or 3 so top end Android devices should get the same in order to keep up with the competition.

You forgot that Apple develops its own software for their own hardware
And iOs never had so many new features in one update as android has. Look, jb brought all new experience with project butter and ics made the ui really good.
What makes apple? Multitasking in one year, folders in next one, than cydia and notification Drawer... So, I hope you understand what I mean.
And to the op, although I leave in Germany, I was born and lived in Ukraine for 15 years, and what I can say:don't trust them.

iOS was just updated to 6.1. iPhone 3GS, which came out in 2008 with iOS 2.0, is still supported and updated today. Support and updates for android devices is utter crap compared to what apple does. It's a shame. and needs to change.
