Samsung Galaxy S2 (Sprint)

Hey, i'm new to this forum so bare with me if i break any rules. Well yersterday i was lucky and happy to get ICS upgrage or update from sprint, for my Samsung Galaxy S2 sph-d710 (Sprint) Maybe cz am new to all of this but my software version Android says (4.0.4) Baseband Version (S710.10.S.FF18) as seen on the attached picture. Now here is the problem, My phone's software doesn't look like other ics, now i don't know that maybe this is how the Sprint version looks or, it just doesn't have all that ics theme or whatever it still looks like gingerbread only running ics but without most of the ics features. (Sorry i don't know much about this & English is my 4th language) so i've attached some pictures of how my phone looks, hope i'll get the answer to this.
Thank You in Advance,
Tizzo009

Nope, that's ICS. It's just Touchwiz running on top. If you want stock ICS, I suggest flashing CyanogenMod 9. For now just install Nova Launcher.

Samsung announced that there were several devices other than the S3 (their latest) that will get Jelly Bean update.
http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_announces_list_of_devices_that_will_get_jelly_bean-news-4853.php
http://www.samsung.com/us/support/SupportOwnersFAQPopup.do?faq_id=FAQ00050212&fm_seq=55187 This is mostly for the S3 series.
Code:
The list includes the following devices:
Galaxy Tab 2 7.0
Galaxy Tab 2 10.1
Galaxy Note 10.1
Galaxy S II
Galaxy Note
Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus
Galaxy S Advance
Galaxy S II LTE
Galaxy Music
Galaxy Chat
Galaxy Ace 2
I8530 Galaxy Beam
Galaxy Ace Plus
Galaxy Mini II
Galaxy S Duos
It was announced by Samsung that these devices will also get official jelly bean. As for if our devices will officially get it we don't know. Our phone is considered Galaxy S II LTE but we dont know yet as our phone is also labeled Skyrocket and there is also an international version labeled Galaxy S II LTE. But if the original Galaxy S II will get it there is a good chance we will also get it but that all depends on Samsung -> ATT.
On the better side we are on the list on CM10 M2 that were released yesterday and so far 4.1.2 has been really good, may have minor kinks here and there but so far its good for a daily driver. So if you want to test drive Jelly Bean you can try out the various builds in the developmental forums. There is the CM10 and AOKP then theres various customized ROMs by other users where they tweak it even more for a better jelly bean experience. :good:

Based on the list here: http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/manufacturer.php?m=101 I can't find the international SII LTE, and based on the specs I found online, it looks like our phone (dual core, where doesn't the international version (whatever it's called) have 4?).
I have heard sometime in Q4, which means any time before the end of the year. That said, CM10 has official nightlies for our phone and AOKP has what should be considered an official build as well. Both work well, as do any of the many builds out there based on those.

The i9210 is the international version and labelled officially as Galaxy S2 LTE the specs are really similar to the skyrocket but not exactly the same for example CPU is the same maker and speed but slight different model. The size of the phone is slightly different and they have the international design for button placement (2 touch buttons one home button in the center which they made standard with the S3 rather than having different designs) so we may or may not get it officially but I wouldn't fret too much about it as we already have a working build.

Were you looking for JellyBean or were you looking for TouchWiz? As many have mentioned, the SkyRocket already has an official CM10 ( JellyBean).
I think you might be asking for an official TouchWiz JellyBean ROM. I would hope to see Samsung leaks for a TWJB ROM soon.
No official word for our device yet.

I think he meant official Samsung ROM, not CM10. I'm to looking forward to get JB official ROM if it's ever coming out.
I love NFC so having a custom ROM wont do it for me, if NFC is available on one of the custom JB ROM ill give it a try.

NFC is a hardware function. Every ROM I've tried has it built in, as long as the hardware supports it.
I can confirm that it works on SlimBean. I transferred several pictures to my mom's S3 via NFC.

Thank you for the info. I know some Skyrocket ROMS that dont have NFC working (according to the builder). But will give a try to SlimBean.

The latest official update from Samsung/AT&T is Ice Cream Sandwich, not Jelly Bean. It's also not available OTA (Over The Air) because of its size; you need to download Kies (basically Samsung's version of iTunes minus the store) and it can install the update when you plug in your phone via USB. If you want Jelly Bean now, it's going to be rooted, and it's going to be quite buggy. Expect many random freezes and reboots.
By the way, here is the correct forum for you: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1493

My guess would be never since it's a low end device which was announced in July 2012 (at least according to GSMarena). Try finding a JB ROM for your phone if you're desperate for an update (which shouldn't be too hard at all, seeing as you're on XDA).

Doesn't matter chances are you won't get it. Unless you've read a previous announcement about it your device will most likely not live to see the day it gets JB
Sent from my CLEAN Note ll

Search for Cyanogen Mod for galaxy S duos .
It will help

I think samsung will not give like galaxy s1 ICS we are waiting for it long time but didn't give only gingerbread till now, the only way is custom rom

Pff, their main Tablet hasn't even gotten JB yet outside of a select few. Let alone a low end phone. Samsung is notorious for terrible support to devices older than half a year.

Probably never
The price of S Duos has been going down steadily. Currently, it costs Rs. 9699 on flipkart. Samsung probably wont spent anymore on upgrading a low end device.

i dont know about galaxy y BUT YOU CAN BE SURE GALAXY ACE HAS NO OFFICIAL JELLY BEAN UPDATE due to its hardware.
and there is no info about if we will get the update (our phones can handle it but we dont know if samsung will give us the update) they are all rumors

look at its hardware it dosnt even have a stable cm 7 or 9 how it can get jb !!!!
and we wont get jb ever atleast i think so !!

If you meant Galaxy Ace Plus ,yes there may be an update (even I don't think so) because Sometime ago TheWhisp stated that any msm7x27a phone can handle JB ,but if Samsung says it can't handle ,it means that their bloatwares don't fit into our device /mini'2 .As I remember

JB update announced
Hi, was checking for latest fm for my girlfriend's mum's Galaxy Ace Plus - looks like latest currently is Gingerbread, 2.3.6. Samsung did announce JB for the phone, but they did that in September, nearly 1 year ago, so who knows if they are still planning to release or not?
I'm not allowed to post a link yet, but a Google search for "Samsung announces list of devices that will get Jelly Bean" will get you a news item on gsmarena about it.

About this question, I used every possible idea to search on the net and even asked the official member.
Their answer did not match and no website had leak information.
Maybe it was abandoned. But we can rely on developers on XDA to get jelly bean experience of Cyangenmod.
That was the best way I thought!

HELP!!
can somebody help me...i want to upgrade my ace plus to jelly bean but i dont even know how..where can i get the file and the tutorial..can somebody give me the link?
