I recently flash an actual ICS rom that was developed for the Samsung Vibrant on my Fathers Samsung Vibrant and I was thinking why cant we have the same thing? It was really nice and everything responded sooo smoothly. I know we have some really hard working developers and I really appreciate what they do. I just wanted to know why cant we have ICS? Its an actual question btw im not whining or anything its just an actual question. Thanks!

Do you mean the ICS value pack leak that samfirmware posted for the Vibrant? That's just Gingerbread with a new lockscreen and a few apps that look like ICS.

Go take a look in the vibrant forums, I flashed it to a friends vibrant about a month or so back. It says 4.0.whatever. But I'm inclined to say its basically an imposter.
Idk enough about the technicalities to pass judgment though.

Sorry. Being in the Galaxy S2 4G section, I thought that that is what we were talking about.
there is no GSII4g section because no such item exists (or more accurately, all GSII's are 4g), you're in the SGS4g section

Pretty sure that's not official, from Samsung. Still though, I'd take a custom ROM over the official Samsung version any day.
No one ever said it was an official ROM from samsung, original post said "actual ICS rom that was developed for the Samsung Vibrant". Key word being Developed
Its pretty sweet actually. But the phone I flashed it on was just a friends wifi only play phone (he uses a sgs2) so I couldn't say how it works for everday use.
so ics is all the rage. im seeing older and less comparably equipped devices getting it. now by no means can i develop anything so im not complaining that we dont have it. im just wondering if its in store for us. thoughts...
thanks!

one of the miui roms got 4.0. http://rootzwiki.com/topic/13939-rom-miui-port-miuius-galnet-miuiandroid-updated-01152012/. i have not tried it yet. if you are that desperate..download go launcher.and go locker and get the ICS themes..they are pretty accurate in its look.
I believe LG has ICS releases slated for Q2 of 2012. Not soon, I imagine.
thanks for the feedback everyone. im not super pressed about it but im excited to try it out when it hits our phones!

Yup. It's like putting the ICS transition animations on a gingerbread rom and labeling it ICS.
They probably have a few things from ICS on it, but it really isn't ICS. I think it is just a publicity stunt for them to get people to download their roms.
would appear to have more than just the transitions, but you guys know best surely.
Like I said , I call it what it is called at Galnet. I am not going to call it something else because you don't like how it makes a few people react.

Oh I'm more with you than anything actually. It's more like a hybrid of ICS and gingerbread. Was just using an example.
T-mobile eol'd the phone and they might eol themselves. Lg will still update this phone, I don't know when, what version, when, how, or who will be the first to drop it, but one of the moderators on lg forum kinda hints at it.
http://www.lgforum.com/forum/boards...goes-black-after-being-plugged-into-a-charger
If you read the last post from Lg Product Pro, it kinda hints at it.
Motorola atrix 4g has a working cm9.
Look on front page.
So my friend has a captivate, and he has a Stock ICS rom. I was just wondering the possibility of a Stock ICS rom for the infuse. I know there are Roms that are suppose to look like ICS, but they aren't even based off of ICS. My question is, is there a STOCK ICS rom based on android 4.0, and if not what is the likelihood of there being one?
I don't know why don't you use the search button and find out for us

I did, and found nothing, except for the fact that all the ones that say ICS are just themed to ICS and not even based of ICS

You mean the HellRaiser? How would this solve my problems exactly, I can't find any ICS roms for galaxy devices except the one for captivate, but it says in order to do the captivate roms, the rom needs to be based off samsung gingerbread. A true ICS Rom would be based off of Ice Cream Sandwich.
No. The one that has the title is anyone planning a custom ics rom
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda premium
Oh, sorry. thanks. That does suck though. I think it would be a great idea. All these developers just don't want to do it I guess. I probably would have donated to someone who would do it. Ahh well. I guess the infuse gets no love.
its not because the devs havnt tried from what i understand its a kernal problem

GuidoZebra,
Read thru the general section and the Q/A section.
There are multiple posts on this topic. TONS.
Then you will understand why there won't be any ICS on the Infuse, short of a miracle.
Go back a few months.
Zeus 5.2 ICS is as close as you'll get.
You don't want ICS on this phone. Even if someone does manage it, it won't be the experience you're hoping for. It will be choppy, buggy and alot of functions won't work. Maybe some super-dev will have a breakthrough this year, but it will be a long time before anything usable, much less fully working is available. So don't hold your breath. Move on. Spend time with the wife and kids. Take the dog to the park. Try to enjoy life.

My Infuse comes tonight. Let me see what best I can do with it. Or am I getting an Outdated Phone LoL.
Hey guys I have some questions that will help me decide whether I should install the AT&T ICS leak or not. So if I install it, will I still be able to receive OTA updates? Also, when I add widgets, will it look like it did in 2.3.6? Like with the menu at the bottom. And last of all, will I still have the tilt to zoom feature? Or will that be gone? Thanks a lot!
**Sorry I forgot to mark this thread as a question. I didn't see that until after I clicked submit.
1. No
2. Widgets are the same, at least I didn`t find any difference
3. Yes
I find UCLE2 (debloated non-root) fast and stable as a DD. I planned to qualify for OTA with a nandroid of 2.3.5 I took. The thing I miss most is better looking and smooother navigating themeing, like I had in Doc's Master on my Captivate.

No reason to in my opinion. Unless you plan on keeping your phone stock anyway.
UCLE2 in its stock form was good for me, but it drained the battery very quickly. Sky ICS 4.2 has been very, very good, even reasonable with the battery. I wonder if the final ATT release of ICS will be even close.

I guess I will also root. I don't see a point in not to. I mean it saves battery, can make your phone faster, and more. Is there all the cool features in Sky ICS from 2.3.6 stock? Like the tilt to zoom? Thanks
**Edit** Oh and what is UCLE2?
UCLE2 is the code name of Samsung's third leaked (sneak preview) stock ICS Rom developed for the Skyrocket. It might soon prove to be identical to the ICS upgrade version AT&T eventually finishes "customizing" and releases OTA. it is Android 4.0.4

Sorry, not trying to be ****-ish, but I'm just not buying it. I don't care if it was the CEO of AT&T who said it -- we've all been lied to enough times by now on official ICS.
Screw official OTA's. I'd be perfectly content if we could just get kernel source from a leak. Hands are tied on a ton of stuff our devs could be doing until we get that.

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

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
