I couldn't agree more. Just change some build props and get us ICS. The fact that they charge crazy prices for this device and then don't support it totally sucks.

ugh
tired of waiting for ics on my i815
has anyone called verizon to find out what the deal is?

Motorola Xyboard just got ICS. Are we next?

Verizon and Samsung don't give a rip about our device or our distress. Software updates would just allow us keep and be happy with our tab longer. Why for that when you voulf get another 300 to 500 out of us for a new device with Jellybean of Keylime pie or what ever else it will be next year.

Cannot connect to update server - Ice Cream Sandwich coming?

I noticed that I cannot connect to the update server today. It was working fine yesterday. Maybe it's down while the get an ICS update prepared??? Hopefully?
Wishful thinking right there. But I am keeping my fingers crossed that we will get ICS soon after the official release of it.
I hate to dash your hopes, but i'm guessing you've never had a samsung device before. We'll get ics sometime, but it will take a while to bake touchwiz into it.
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using xda premium
It will be months after the Nexus is released before any other device gets ICS. That's always the way it has been in the past.
Oh...oh well. I should just delete this post so I don't get anyone's hopes up.
but i thought the code was "one os that runs everywhere" .. so are they still going to bake touchwiz patches into it? i thought every tablet and the phone would look the same..
one more thing; are they going the release the nexus and the ice cream sandwcih or just going to announce it?
Our biggest hope of seeing ICS with in near future is Team Hacksung. hopefully there will be a CM version now when ICS source will be released. And that will be so F*****G SWEET!
If I know Samsung...
...it should arrive just before the next version is rolled out.
I love Samsung products but you just don't see timely updates.
It might be coming to the I/O version of the 10.1 as that has remained as pure Honeycomb.

actually Steve Kondik has several galaxy tab 10.1
so i expect that once ICS src comes to the public (usually a bit after the first device gets release) CM will start working on it...and that normally takes like a month or two for the firsts nightly
remember when GB came..it came in Nov and the firsts CM7 nightlies came in about Mid Jan..
So a long way to go..
I say by Feb next year we would get a better idea of where things are now is too too early LOL
I just hope we have a chance of getting it on our tabs =/
I hope I'll win the newyear lottery this year, probably more chance also.

Dual core tegra 2 device getting ICS

LG just "confirmed" the optimus 2x, the first dual core phone of the world is getting the update.

get your crap together motorola !
I thought the atix was the first phone to use a dualcore proccesor...
Anyways, Motorola never said they wernt updating the atrix.

LG Optimus 2X indeed is the world’s first dual-core smartphone (both announced and released). This achievement was acknowledged by the Guinness World Records – the Optimus 2X is the first dual-core phone available to the public.

Do you have a link that says atrix isn't being updated, or is this just because they haven't said?
This is what motor says A note about Ice Cream Sandwich: We are planning to upgrade DROID RAZR, Motorola RAZR, Motorola XOOM and DROID BIONIC by Motorola to Ice Cream Sandwich. We will provide more precise guidance on timing after post-public push of Ice Cream Sandwich by Google, as well as any possible additions to this list of devices. And here Is the link. http://moto.ly/icsboot

Ah yes, so they never said Atrix wouldn't get ICS, they just didn't include it in their list of devices, which (not so coincidentally) only refers to Verizon products. They probably haven't worked it out with the other providers yet, or more likely Verizon is being given a market headstart. If Motorola will not provide ICS for a phone, they will more than likely come out and say it.
Check out https://supportforums.motorola.com/community/manager/softwareupgrades
You will see phones definately not getting upgraded say so (i.e. CHARM MB502
Will remain on Android 2.1)
Per Motorola's own list posted above, seems Gingerbread is still being rolled out for the Atrix in Latin America in Q4 (talk about slow).
Maybe that is why they are not announcing weather ICS is, or is not, planned yet for the Atrix? Otherwise the phone itself is more than capable of handling ICS.
Post this stuff in one of the other 2 million threads about ICS - Thread Reported.
Whats with some peoples attitude on here. This was a good post thank u op. Another tegra 2 device that was confirmed for ics i definately am glad u started this thread gives moto no excuse for not updating the atrix

i don't believe there are 2 million threads about it! and it wasn't a question, it wasn't put in the development section, it wasn't put in themes and apps. It was put in GENERAL!! get over it!!
anyhow i live in the UK and i haven't even got an official gingerbread update yet!! lol my old desire even got an official one and that phone is 18 months old now.
i do hope that we get an official release, but even if we don't there will be a cyanogen release (CM9 i believe)
FINGERS CROSSED!!
I find the topic relevant. Let's stay on topic, though.
Moto sucks! CM9 FTW!
I had a samsung Vibrant before this beast, only switched 4 days ago. And there we barely had a working GB since there was never an official release, meaning no gps drivers, video codex, crappy battery life...etc. While here I'm having all those plus much more with the 1gb ram (real multitasking for a change!). Yet now I find myself already freaking out about ICS
How addictive can Android be!!!

i believe we will get ICS for the Atrix...however some things to think about are: we also just got GB, its most likely that we will get it anywhere between 6 months to a year from now at least...and...
How are they going to incorporate such a HUUGGEEE software change...that being UI overhaul and the general mechanics of ICS...with Motoblur? or will they drop motoblur all together... finger crossed at dropping motoblur personaly
Since the Atrix is end-of-life, I doubt we'll see such a major upgrade as ICS. Our best bet for the first ICS port will be CM9.
I would expect an ICS update from the manufacturer when the Mariners win a World Series.
Give up hope for Motorola to provide an official update to ICS, but keep hope for CM9, which is basically a guarentee

Is SG Tab 10.1 getting Ice Cream Sandwich officially?

Has Samsung announced that GS Tab 10.1 getting Ice Cream Sandwich officially?
To make it quick, yes.
Thanks, but can I ask; is it a reliable source?
There has never been an official statement from Samsung about ICS on the GT10. But rest assured we will get it. It will probably come from CyanogenMod as CM9. Watch for that... (no idea when, though. Might be tomorrow and it might be February...).
I posted this statement according to the following source: Click me!
Yeah.. not a really official statement, but it went through the media back then.
Logically there should be an official release. Thanks for replying!

This is the Galaxy tab 10.1 forum. We don't have the same hardware, so this won't help anyone here.
Yup. It was announced two days ago. It was Motorola's way of squeezing the last buck out of the xoom before they can it. They wanted it to appeal to the masses because of ics' huge "success."
Sent from my SGH-I997 using Tapatalk
I think we're missing the bigger picture here..... Xoom got ICS before the SGT10.1 did, before CM9 was moved out of Alpha, before any other tablet on the market today! Sure, it's a "pure Google experience" device, and Google wanted Moto to get the first crack at it, which is all understandable from the official ROM release standpoint, but where the hell are we in all this? I thought CM9 was a go on the SGT10.1 before any other tablet?
Still waiting patiently, but man, that really sucks for us.....
Pretty sure there are hardware issues preventing a finished port. Check out the Cyanogen interview from another site.

not sure I get you: CM9 is a modified ICS build that uses ICS code + specific hardware drivers (so it's custom for each device); a google experience device is specifically designated by google to be the first with new OS version. So you should expect the GED to get the update before any official CM9 is released. Also, I have to disagree that it "sucks for us" - don't conflate someone else's good fortune with your own bad fortune.

Wasn't the ATP just released with ICS, not updated to it?
Also, I'm pretty glad to see that ICS is rolling out for ANYTHING that wasn't given to it at birth. Doesn't anybody see that this just means things are moving along as they should be? At least in the smallest bit?
ATP initially shipped with HC.
It's no surprise that Xoom was the first - in fact I'm shocked it took this long for it to get an official update release, considering it's been supported in AOSP from the beginning.
As others have said, the Xoom was a Google Experience device. Consider it to be the Nexus of Honeycomb tablets.
I've waited very patiently for ICS on the Gtab 10.1. I think I still have a bit of patients left. Task's rom makes the tab enjoyable for now.

I think you mean "patience."
If the gtab 10.1 gets an official OTA what will that mean for CM9? Would it just be a quick fix to any lingering CM9 issues and thereby push us into a CM9 custom ROM immediately? Or would the CM9 devs have to re-develop the new distribution for release?
You know...
There are two things I always hear in technology forums:
1- WOW! Look a girl in the forum!
2- OMG! You always complain....
But yeah, maybe they are right.. Maybe I complain... a lot...
You know, its not that I am jealous that Moto has got ICS before Samsung.
What drives me crazy is that fact we dont even have an ETA. I wouldnt mind waiting until March or April, but a dead line would be nice, or at least a sign that they are doing something! A beta maybe?? A proof of concept? Photos??
But no... Not even a word, nothing...
Last I heard from Samsung is that they got sued by Apple... Then....
*NOTHING*
What exactly are you looking to do differently on your tab when you get ICS?
Sent from my GT-P7510 using Tapatalk
Stardate is right lol
besides the difference in the system build, what are you going to do with it? having HC 3.2 and ICS 4.0, you'll do the same thing. what is so proud of getting ICS first when you do know GT10.1 will get it later on. maybe Samsung just keep it as a secret to do more experience test than others.

Ice Cream Sandwich for Atrix - Motorola Official

Alright, so many of you know that Motorola announced that it would in fact bring a software update for Ice Cream Sandwich to the Atrix. I emailed Motorola a few days ago and asked them when the update would come out.
This was the answer I received to my ETA question:
"The Ice Cream Sandwich(Android 4.0) Software Upgrade rollout for the AT&T Motorola ATRIX begins on the third quarter of 2012."
I guess that would mean we get ICS (officially) sometime this summer?
See this link for more details: https://forums.motorola.com/pages/00add97d6c

I personally can't wait for Neutrino to be CM9 (ICS)!
But, I'm glad Motorola is going to release ICS for the Atrix. I figured since they were focused on newer devices, they wouldn't bother anymore. Even the Atrix 2 is out now.
I don´t really care where it´s from as long as i get ICS on my atrix. It still has a lot to give.
Thru use of deductive reasoning (lol )
One of the main speculations in the past as to why ICS wouldn't come to the Atrix was because of the webtop, and having to code a new webtop to work with the Motorola Code?
Since Canonical is openly advertising Ubuntu for Android, and the important line that its 'laptop environment' isn’t dependant or intrusive to the OS loaded to the phone. Maybe Moto is simply giving us ICS for the phone, with the Canonical software loaded. thus abandoning its proprietary 'webdock' for something that can be used across its entire lineup?
Thoughts?

That would be amazing... A bit hard to believe considering Moto's past, but still worth dreaming about.
yes
that is amezing i am really waiting for it thanks man for telling me this
Since Moto is heavily marketing the new RAZR with a very similar lapdock, I am fairly certain they worked out the issue with webtop and decided to throw us dinosaur-riders a bone.
However, the truth is - once I saw video of the new Asus padfone I was ruined. As soon as they are reasonable my Atrix and all its docks and accessories will be up for sale with no regrets.

The jokersax ICS ROM is AMAZING! Go try and it! It is still on Alpha but I have not experienced any bugs so far.
It depends on how good the stock ROM is as well, but custom ROMs are always usually superior.
