They haven't even fixed bugs with 4.0.3, so I don't expect them to get this right as well :-(

Some of 4.0.3 bugs are actually 4.0.3 bugs, not Samsung's fault.
They are fixed on 4.0.4. Remember, I said some. The rest of the big bugs are Samsung's fault.

hopefully there's a leak soon... need the broken 4.0.3 activesync working again!

And i hope for a new camera software that allows you to take pictures while recording videos

Yeah I tried a lot of alternative browsers, and there are some of them that are better than the original, but still no comparison with GB stock! I mean, ICS should be better than GB, so I don't understand why they messed up the browser! It was so amazing in GB!
Anyway, which are the main differences between 4.0.3 and 4.0.4 ??

I use ICS Browser+ and it is packed with lots of great features, I highly recommend it.

I REALLY hope for that. But I dont think this function will be ever available via offiacial Samsung FW.
But is it even possible for SGSII? I mean, is the chipset and camera capable of this function?

That is not true mate. Check out progress report thread in android development forum, you will see major phones have pretty good ICS developed.

Yes ofc without microphone or speakers working at all. Because there is the phone kernel missing for the ics. So they are trying to implant a GB version on ics, correct me if I am wrong have 0 knowledge about the thema, that's why no thanks I will wait, if you can't wait why didn't you bought the nexus??

microphone works perfectly fine here. had nothing but crystal clear call quality from the start according to everyone ive spoken to.
maybe theres gunk in your mic hole or its being obstructed?
Eh, they're talking about the ICS build. Currently it's private, so uh... wat?
Why not both?
I'd love to play with a half working ICS rom for now.
I really don't care about things like bluetooth etc.
Having a working screen / camera / data is nice though

Melchior as I have read he does developing his custom roms, sorry netchip but I don't remember which it was :-( . So he asked, to get a wrought thought what people want because the needs are always different the wants can be made the needs can be satisfied ;-) GL HF netchip with what you decide as I said with a kernel working perfectly a waste of time to make Ics, ok it would be imba to get the start with it but it would be to much dunno about your free time and what you like to do easy s..t or hard core, I can't make it, I will try moaaaaaaaaar, I made itttttttttttt yessssssssssssss.

if ther is going to be a miui rom foe the note i would expect it to be based on ICS rather than gingerbread and woudl take a while after that to get some of the stuff ported such as the s-pen
When will we see ...Come on MİUİ for NOTE

ICS is still in beta. I personally do not believe ICS will EVERY be fully developed for our HD2's. The drivers that are open source are too new for our 2 year old devices. If you want ICS you will just have to deal with the poor quality.
@djsolidsnake86: search for hardware acceleration or hwa.
Its what so many people are waiting for :banghead:
Lets be optimistic and say 'sometime soon '

Umm, not to burst your bubble guys but you do realize that there already is a thread about the 4.0.4 stock rom? There isn't a need for more threads
Ooooh, a link to a blog which appears to rip off other blogs by copying their content word for word, linking to another blog, which links to sammobile? Awesome. Thanks for making a new thread to spam that crap. We needed more 4.0.4 threads anyway.
just recieved a firmware update , it still say's version 4.0.3
What was your previous version?

i really hope with this update they fixed those bugs... my s2 had many problems and so my friends galaxy s2 s since the ics update .. gingerbread is still the best rom in my opinion
whats all the buzz about 4.04, its not like its a special upgrade, its still ics....
Im more interested in JB, come on guys, are we going to get it?????
I really hope so, personally i dont like ics and im still running LA4 GB, since day 1 of pretty much flashing my phone, it works for mw, ics doesnt.
So if anyone has any goss on JB, would be cool, i know the s3 and hox and note will get it, but, will we..

With JB, try waiting another 6 months.
You do not need the ROM released in your regions to install. Most of them are fine, unless you want languages specific to your region.

4.1.1 update will bring NatureUX to SGS2 (or atleast for the korean version)

I am posting it for those of who didn't see my post in the leak thread.
well, yesterday ota for android 4.1.1 for the koran sgs2 a.k.a 'SHW-M250K showed up at sammobile site.
but this ota is useless since its require 4.1.1 in order to use it.
However, this ota teach us that the update will bring Nature UX and that samsung actually statrted to work on the update.
I took some screenshots of the ota to let you see that it's 100% nature UX /touchwiz UX.

SecSettings,SecLauncher2,TopicWall,WeatherWall,Snote and Splanner are 100% nature ux apks and you will find them in every sgs3 rom (stock of course)
they even included the brand new galaxy note 2 water ripple live wallpaper.
And lastly,here the first line from the ota's update script that prove that there was not misspelling on ota name or something and everything is genuine:

hope so
there was a thread for those willing to flash a Korean ROM...the HW is almost the same except NFC and FM radio
Its a different FM radio in the korean version? Lacking NFC is not a problem I think, as the ROM will still work only that the menu's for NFC will generate errors if you try to access them..
But we don't have the full ROM right? We have the ota only! A few MB

If the leak existed, it would existed and people would be using it
I think you meant "experimental build", yeah, this might exist, but they don't leak because it's a leak, Samsung doesn't leak it voluntarily, it turns out to be someone leaking, maybe accidentaly?
So, if you install a Koren ICS ROM, you can install this OTA? =)

I believe it's the latest version of touchwiz UI, like the one in Sgs3.

With the Samsung Galaxy S III the Android phone maker introduced the newest version of its interface overlay over Ice Cream Sandwich called TouchWiz Nature UX

I'm sure it will. Maybe it's because of apple's patent war against samsung that's why they will update (soon) the UI of sgs2 to avoid patent infringement. So maybe in a way we might have to thank *cough* apple *cough* in a way.
