Hey my fellow Infuse owners!! Just got done reading the article about ICS being ported to the SGS I9000! Dose this mean the Infuse stands a better chance of geting a rom or port?

Hopefully with a modified kernel (ala Hellraiser) we'll be able to run this one day. This is pretty good news.

I promise you we'll care more when at least a system dump from the Galaxy Nexus is out, but more like when the source is out. Have patience. Not much longer.
Just saw that a successful alpha of ICS has been ported to the SGS so I think we're getting closer and closer. Once a full working version is up and running on the SGS I really hope that one of our devs will port it!

No point in porting it. We can do it ourselves when we get the proper files (which require a system dump or source).
We'll be seeing some form of ICS long before AT&T ever releases gingerbread. What a joke.

Fine with me. I'd rather have modded ics than stock OR modded gingerbread...
I'm sure everyone would agree with that. And yes. Att is a joke.

Honestly in all due respect, I tried contacting several people from Samsung and tried to get answers to all my question's from those bone heads. I think Samsung is dragging their feet on Gingerbread, this has nothing to do with At&t at all. At&t was ready to give us some sort of GB release back in August, seems to me Samsung keeps holding back because all their newer phones are getting the most respect right now and not our already 1 penny Infuse.
Enough Said........

Exactly it. We are not going to get an official release from sammy, people should just get used to the fact cm7 and miui is the only chance for us and ics. Maybe someone can port it from the i9000 but that's just a maybe. CM7 lead the way lol.

Samsung is a complete joke. This is like a bad OS software. EX: Windows ME!, theirs nothing they can fix so they skipped it creating another phone next to this, Basically the only phone next to this would be the SkyRocket, Shares all aspects of our beloved Infuse, just upgraded hardware and better Support, plus they are getting ICS in the beginning of next year.
Hey all,
So basically the wifi/Bluetooth hardware has crapped out on this phone and since there's no Atrix 4g anymore they're sending me an Atrix 2 MB865 tomorrow.
Having tried a lot of different ROMs on the 4g my favorite by far is the NEUTRINO ROM ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1398819 ).
I was curious if anyone had also made the switch from the 4g to the 2 and if they can reccomend a comparable ROM. I'll probably have to try what's available and find out for myself, but any guidance is appreciated!
Thanks.

RebelRom or VictoryRom easy to install debloated, really responsive.
Supercharged V5, excellent Rom, bit more to install. Probably the best as well.
I use VictoryRom because I don't have the patience to install Supercharged.
Waiting for the release of RebelRom stable.
Well I am sure none of this helped!
Really you cannot go wrong with any of them, it's a matter of taste.
ATRIX 2 / Victory Rom
I would say VictoryRom is closest to that. Atrix 4G's bootloader is unlocked right? Atrix 2 is not. So there are workarounds that make installing ROMs a different process.
Sent via Tapatalk with VictoryRom_v1.1
Use victory Rom for simplicity and closest to stock
Rebel Rom for a bit tweaked and sony-like launcher
Supercharged Rom for heavy tweaking and slight theming
Blaze Rom for both heavy tweaking and heavy theming
But the rom you wanted is based off cyanogen mod, our bootloader is locked therefore our customizations are limited and cyanogen mod isn't available for the atrix 2 yet.
Thanks for the replies. It is going to be hard not having cyanogenmod...to the point where I may sell the phone and opt for an SGS II for the time being which I hate to say because I love my Atrix .
Are there still folks working on unlocking the bootloader? I read the project cheesecake thread but it seems it's been going on forever with no real progress.

Some folks are working on CM7 for the Atrix 2 (using the 2nd init method iirc).
Last I heard it was close to testing...

People (mainly Jim) are working on a method to get around the bootloader (bypass it) using kexec. It's maybe a couple weeks from being released. And wer're getting ICS sometime in July officially. We'll probably have a leaked version months before allowing us to get CM9 in. SO I HIGHLY RECOMMEND NOT SELLING YOUR PHONE. That is all.

Couldn't have said it better myself.
Jim is working on bypassing the bootloader and CM7 so you will probably see the two released around the same time.

Got the phone, rooted it and not even bothering with a ROM atm, just some tweaks (remove bloatware, deblur, launcher, cpu etc).
Honestly, in just the first day I'm liking this phone a bit more than the Atrix 4g. Phone is snappy, my speedtests are insane (don't know if it's true 4g lte, but I live in Boston and I got about 10mb/s down earlier, 1.5up), and the screen/colors seem a lot better than the 4g but that could just be all in my head due to the slightly larger screen size.
So I'm not gonna jump ship and go SGS II, just going to be patient and wait for the unlocked bootloader
Does anyone know when we will see ICS. This phone will crush ICS as long they leave or slim down touchwiz.

I don't think there has been any official announcement by Tmobile or Samsung that we will get ICS. All the reviews of this phone around the internet just assume it will, eventually...
They may get around to it in a few months after every version of the SGS2 is updated...

if I remember correctly, someone spotted a post on TMobile help center or something that blaze will be getting it soon
Samsung and T-Mobile plan to release a software update for the Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G that updates the device software to Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich). The dates for this future update are TBD, but this document will be updated when details become available

Thanks, but Tmobile's promises are worth less than the 2 seconds it took me to scan that page. Actually, I'd like those seconds back. Learned this the hard way with the Vibrant, which would still be running Eclair if it were up to Tmobile. As it was, it took a full-on smear campaign to get Samsung to release a piss-poor update to Froyo that you had to know about to get, no OTA. So don't hold your breath on this one. I won't believe it until i see it.
Sent from my Kindle Fire using Tapatalk 2 Beta-5
i had a vibrant also so i know exactly how you feel.
but the guy said there was nothing "official" so i assumed he wanted to hear something from tmobile, so i put up the link.
not sure what else i could have done better here.
Seems Samsung has gotten better with updates since then...I'd least I would hope so. Otherwise, I wouldn't even be looking at this phone.
Trev, I wasn't ranting at you, sorry if that was the impression. I am just a little pissed that T-Mo and Samsung always seem to make update promises, but never deliver. I really like the Blaze 4g, except for all the bloat, but I won't pick one up until it receives official ICS, or is supported by AOKP. I'm tired of hacked ROMs, and now that I have AOKP ICS for my Vibrant, I can never go back to gingerbread or lower.

So seeing how We are still waiting on official ICS for our phones, could this be a blessing in disguise? is it possible we may get the new Touchwiz from the GSIII officially in ICS for GS2 Skyrockets?
I really like the new touchwiz and really hope we get it. i have used holo launcher and think its the best reproduction ICS themed launcher but for some reason i keep going back to touchwiz and absolutely love the new one and am hoping it comes to us officially.
While it's possible, I don't know that it's probable.
What is more probable is that AT&T will keep the new improvements for the new phone. There may be some updates, but we probably won't be getting all of the new bells and whistles.
If you want more of the newer stuff, look into one of the ROMs out there that have most of those improvements.
you guys are probably right.
I have flashed other roms like SKY ICS but that rom is way too cumbersome and has too many steps and builds. Base this, update that. wipe 3 times on everything and flash only bits from your SD card or you dont have sound etc. everything has to be done in 3 or 4 pieces. just really cumbersome just to get the new touchwiz bits. when you finally get it all updated and everything working then next day an update comes out again you flash that update which is supposed to be all good and you lose all your sounds again ugh.
tried the AOKP roms as well as the new chimara rom that has the current bug of dont let your phone die because the USB port isnt active with a dead battery so you cant charge WTF)
So now i'm back on the latest UCLE Leak build throwing on holo launcher and will just be patient for the ICS leak or another stable less cumbersome New touchwiz themed rom.
I cleaned. Will keep in General please no trolling or flaming
Actually, I just checked for updates on my ATT Skyrocket and it says an update is available, but the servers are currently busy. Can someone verify this?

Dont know if that is posible since DesignGears has released information that another leak will be coming out this week !!! So I would doubt very much that our AT&T Skyrockets are receiving ICS just yet.
As for the new GSIII TouchWiz .. anything at this time is possible .. since the 3 leaks we have received so far from DesignGears .. we went from ICS 4.0.3 to 4.0.4 .. so it would be very interesting to see what changes have been made for the upcoming I727UCLF5.
...I'll already be running jelly bean on the next Nexus device.
Oh, sorry-- thought this was one of those 'complete this sentence' problems.
I just checked and it's also saying there's an update available but the servers are busy. I'm already on 2.3.6
There is no update past 2.3.6 yet the minute you actually complete a dl then say something

Go get some of Seanz ROM based on the official Rogers ICS. It is fast and when coupled with the Mohan kernel even the touch key lights work. Sean may not even mess (I just read his post) with the ATT official because of too much bloat.
This thing is superfast, it downloaded and installed all of my previously installed apps without any user intervention. Facial recog works etc.
This ROM is perfect for me as it is (assuming btooth and wifi is ok which I couldn't test at work)
Assuming these last two things work I won't even download the offical ATT...
So close...yet so far. We are better off custom roms which is in a way more advanced than stocks.

I have to agree rogers would be better for a build. ATT roms are always 150mg larger because of the BS they do with it. Rogers will always be a little better. And they are really the exact same besides the bloat and modem.
Sky ICS based on the Rogers build works great! I personally prefer the CM9 builds, Rogers modem, and Instigator X kernel. There are plenty of options for Skyrocket users without having to worry about an official AT&T build - which is surely to be bloated to death anyway.
Running SKY ICS 4.3f here, thing is smooooth. Was with 4.3E up until today. With a ROM this good, who would want to go stock?
Please let us know how the battery life is with SKY ICS
If you are worried about bloat, why not just freeze it? Its something that YOU would have to do yourself but still. And its fairly easy.
Looks like S2 users have to wait a bit..

Maybe they are putting i777 on hold so they can release i777 and i727 at the same time to reduce the whining.
Here is an actual quote from AT&T PR as to what is going on withthe SGS II AT&T ICS update.
We plan for the upgrade to Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) for Galaxy S II customers to be live very soon. Like with every OS update, we test it on our servers before we roll it out to customers. We’re in the process of doing that with Android 4.0 (ICS) for Galaxy S II customers and hope to make that live soon. We recommend customers wait to attempt the update.
