Is there a hack where I can get ics spell check where it underlines the word with a red line on my Samsung galaxy s3 from sprint. I know Sammy got rid of it but it's such a great feature, that was one of the main reasons why I got the phone.

Try using the LatineIME keyboard and dictionary from AOSP.
I would try this but I haven't got any free time on my hands. Anyone wanna give it a go?

I'll have a go later, it will probably only work with Canadian builds though. Boggles me why they would remove this

Nice to hear it's in the works, even if it does take the US a few extra months after the i9300 does
I would think they working on it already, and I hope it only takes a few months, when eclair got update to froyo, the Evo 4G was the first one to get in two months frame, seem hoe eclair and froyo was back then, that's how it looks for ics to jelly bean, some things did get left out by HTC back them tho(like cloud backup of apps)

Have no doubt the s3 will get it. The s2 though, i don't know.
Probably just the international version sgs2

Yeah, even if the int. Gsiii gets it in a month or two, it would be a GODSEND if we were to get it before the end of the year. Carriers always take their sweet time to bloat it up

I've just been running with some of the backported JB goodness... like the keyboard and Google Ears... other than Google Now that covers most of it.
Sprint takes there sweet time but ATT takes ages so I hope they dont do that bs.

Nothing to see hear. Expect it to ARRIVE to our PHONES in 2013.

So it'll reach US carriers in 6 months, and the Verizon version will see it in 2014.

Key lime pie will be shipping on new phones before verizon sends out an OTA for jellybean.

Either way you look at it this it's still good news.
The one thing I dislike is that some U.S. carriers may overlook the SGSII update to sell more SGSIII.
The reason being is that the SGSII variants for the U.S. launched less the a year ago. Which means there are a majority of people who are still locked in a contract.

Well the original galaxy s got two updates: froyo and gingerbread. I it only makes sense to see the galaxy s2 to get two updates as well: ics and jelly bean

Yes it makes sense but is expensive for them and it most likely going to get it just later

Shouldn't take to awfully long being that jelly bean is based off ICS. ICS took longer to update because its a whole new build coming from gingerbread.

That makes sense but the carriers do what they want. I had an infuse 4g which is very similar to the s1 and it was only given a gb update after ice came out. It will probably never see official ics

Well in that case I guess you just have to hope. Keep in mind though it was kind of a spin-off of the galaxy s series, like the stratosphere or some phone like that. I don't really know

Yeah but Samsung can be pretty disappointing with updates. Optimistically, I'd say it will be released in September but it'll probably be like late October or November.

Hey well ive had my gs3 for about a week coming from two years on the epic....and just wanted to chime in my humble .02 for those skeptics that are undecided wether to jump ship or not. Ill start off by saying im a die_hard physical user and I couldn't be happier with my new fone. It takes a lil to get used to the onscreen keyboard but since the screen is bigger its extremely accurate. My second biggest concern was the lack of lte in my area (los angeles).... but with the awesome help of xda developers, a couple of tweaks here and there and my speeds are not bad at all. The battery on this fone is awesome....also with tweaks here and there. Overall this fone is a beast....camera is awesome with no lag and bluetooth sound streaming on my car is clearer and louder. I got the otter carriying case which is extremely sturdy and helps the fone not feel so light. Two spare batteries oem and a battery charger, a new bluetooth motorola elite silver with awesome sound and battery through which i can stream music and a hdmi dock audio for my tv and i couldnt be happier. If anyone is interested ill report my current rom/setup and tweaks and if u have any reasonable questions or concerns ill keep an eye on this thread. Hope it helps!!!

1) LTE? 2) KB: do miss it, no way is on screen KB replacing a physical one 3) Screen is huge but I honestly can't tell much of an improvement over Epic quality wise, 4) it is smooth, with these specs - but hate TW in any iteration and S3 AOSP development isn't there yet AFAIK.
When LTE will show up and AOSP roms catch up S3 will be a much more attractive choice.

And while your AOSP catches up (and never really "fully" gets there) I'm already enjoying pure, bug free AOSP 4.1.1 on my Galaxy Nexus.

Its amazing how a couple of sentences can demonstrate a lot about someone's character.....
If memory serves me correctly two years ago we had the same discussion between evo 4g and epic 4g only now its the gnex vs the gs3. Time will tell....but im pretty confident ill be on the winning side once again

Different strokes for different folks. I was contemplating a VZW GNex while the 2ble data promo was still running. Came away unimpressed, less so with G3 but still. For me, having a hardware KB, a few AOSP bugs but none that bother me, avoiding a contract x 2 years on a network with a big ? in my area, OG Epic doing everything I need it to do and having all the accessories I want is just fine.
This really belongs in the new phone discussion
And the whole Nexus vs. S3 argument has been beaten to death
If you want the quickest software updates and lowest upgrade cost get a Nexus
If you want the best hardware and have a few more upgrade bucks get the S3
There, the whole discussion reader digested!

It's official, TMobile has cut the galaxy note out. Why? Probably has to do with the fact that the note 2 is around the corner. And I waited all this time for the note to come out on TMobile! Late to the party note, thanks. Although I did get a note and I love it for it's huge display and stylus, there is nothing else impressive about this phone. All I can do now is wait for the note 2, will be announced thus month on the 29th, and enjoy the last few breaths this note has left,in it.

Well, besides the brick-bug which can easily be avoided, what is there to dislike? I mean, other than the quad-core behemoths, the Note is still a very powerful device and the large screen plus S Pen just add to its capabilities. If you don't find a use for the S Pen, or larger screen, then why not just get an Galaxy S3 or HTC One X rather than wait for the Note 2?

IM guessing that's directed at me since you did quote me. X) I actually traded my have for the TMobile note last week. I love the big screen and the stylus, but the note could have definitely used more ram. Most of the time at Any given usage the note is occupying more than %85 of ram and it's clearly obvious. I love the note, just wish the size matched it's internal hardware specs. Note 2 is ganna rock.

Speaking about RAM, yes I agree Note has bare minimum available to run smoothly. When I run Tasker with sweet sounding Loquendo TTS engine announcing vital info, things start to load afresh when apps are switched.

Already done!
Verizon is the reason Google chose to make the Nexus 4 a GSM exclusive. After Verizon totally ruined the launch of the Galaxy Nexus last year with endless delays plus their npn-existant advertising, Google correctly raised their middle finger to Big Red this time around. Paybacks, it seems, really is a bi---.

And as a result, they will lose a few customers like myself. So long, Verizon!
