No one knows. Samsung is updating the Galaxy S i9000 phones - but that Froyo build is not for us. It may not be until December for USA phones. No one knows.

I been waiting? Nobody knows when the official is going to drop. You are not the only person waiting for it. Install the leaked and be happy with that for now.

Just root it already, you won't be disappointed.

I'm waiting too. My phone has cognition 2.2 but I'm making my wife keep her's stock so I know when the update rolls out.

You sir, are a cruel cruel man.

Dont hold your breath, still waiting on a damn gps fix.

Just for the record, Cog 2.2B6 on my phone fixed my GPS issues.

That's Samsung UK press release. Nothing related to Samsung US.
So, if UK is getting update until end of Nov, US won't start until Dec. at the earliest.

Did you really think it wouldn't be on XDA?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=974117
I'm sure it'll be coming down the pipe at some point, but I'd be more concerned with getting custom ROM's for 2.2 first as that will be next to come.

^this.
we just got froyo, and while it's awesome for this leak to happen, I'm not even going to gear up for gingerbread for quite a while. not to mention that our carrier won't even be able to leak 2.3 for a loooooong while yet.

Its for the international galaxy s. I9000. If we get it it will be a year or more before we would see it.

mmmm, gingerbread. Not anxious for it, I can't wait to see what happens with 2.2 once the source code gets released but this is something to look forward to anyways!

Nice article about Android updates

http://news.cnet.com/8301-31322_3-2...oid-this-is-your-last-chance/?tag=epicStories
Would be nice if there was a Android Update Alliance!

Wish google would read that and take it to heart.

Wish AT&T would read that too

Even if we Infuse owners never see it, I'm truly hoping ICS fixes all of the myriad issues with Android. It has the potential to be the one OS to rule them all. I look forward to its release and reading and learning all I can about it in hopes we do receive it.
That being said, I would be happy to just get GB.
PS,
And yes, I realize that there are fantastic ROMs and whatnot out there, I mean official.

Yeah ,me too! I really feel like they're not in a rush because if the Infuse had GB a lot of folks might not have purchased the SGS2.

That's exactly it, it's the dollar signs that AT&T is worried about..but now that its out already give us GB!!! I'm hoping another leak will come out sometime this week to let us know it's getting closer.
ICS better be legit or android is going to lose potential buyers because of this update waiting game we current owners deal with...

Good read!

I wish we could at least see some true Gingerbread action, but ICS would be a blessing.

Since we got gingerbread do you think will get ICS?

Since we just received official gingerbread love, do you think it is more likely for us to receive official ice cream sandwich sooner or later? Not custom ports or roms

If we fallow Samsung's chain (I hope i'm wrong) look at what happened to the vibrant, it got left out in froyo when or sgs4g came out, then we got GB but the SII came out, get the path here?

the only saving grace is the sgs4g is still in the 18 month window for ics as far as updated oses go its possable but dont hold ur breath on it

Dude are you serious? Samsung told everyone that the original Galaxy S line wasn't gonna get it due to hardware limitations. They can't get it with touchwiz so we don't get it at all

Why do you think the sgs4g needs to get ics? My phone is fast got extremely great battery life and tons of other things. Do you just want ics so you could have the latest android flavor or do you think or know it will make our phones that much better. I'm not trying to be a smartass just curious why ppl are this rilled up about ics.

I think the only reason is because "others have it".
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium

Great words blazen you know maybe ics has some quiet interesting features but our developers make than our phone from crappy to gingerbread better than ics that is one the reasons I want to start developing because I feel that I got skills to make some good stuff for the phone ( like themes and guides only things that i have finished) and other reason is because here our developers are way better than samsungs horrible costumer service....anyway every sgs4g user most appreciete the developers work even if the projects are not finished like ics port and aosp port because that makes people more happy and they know that there works are awesome

I believe that most want it because it is the newest OS and most believe it will be an improvement, much like GB compared to Froyo... Which is understandable considering the developers here are going full bore in a attempt to port ICS.
Being one of those that was satisfied with froyo, I have to admit I am even more satisfied with GB... But as for your question, I personally hope that it is released for our phone because if it is, so to would the source be released (just imagine what the developers could accomplish with it).
Just my 2 cents in the well.

You do realize that's a post from someone in the forums right? No word from Samsung USA. You cannot depend on what a customer service rep says, they sit behind the computer all day and still do not know a thing about the products they are supposed to be supporting. They are just trying to shut us up about it already. If the OG galaxy s gets just a value pack, it'd be hard to imagine them bending backwards to give us full ICS

Thanks to Jt1134 and Bryan men

I don't particularly care for ICS ....
I'm quite happy with GB.
Besides.... ICS is just about outdated with Jellybeans on the way LOL.
Can't wait to see what our devs can do with jellybeans ;-)

Ill get my diapers ready

If I am not mistaken the T-Mobile version is the same as the Telus S2 in Canada. If it is I would not be in any hurry to upgrade to ICS. My own experience and experience of others as reported on the Howardforums has not been stellar. Problems with apps freezing and battery life going in the toilet are common. Looks great, just doesn't work very well. I would hold off until these issues are addressed. I usually always wait to do an update until I here some feedback but this time I jumped in and am now regretting it.
Just a word to the wise
