Every device is different, but there are very few devices that have ICS right now.
I'm not sure on your device, but most likely it doesn't have it.
So, i am sorry, but no. You can't upgrade to ICS :-(

Yep, thats true - if anyone makes a port for your device you could use ICS on your phone, or you try to port it on your own

Look in the Development section for Captivate. One option is CM7 which you can get to by going to the link below, but I beleive there are more options than just this.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=978150
CM7 is still a beta and it is not true 2.3 it is a modded port/asop hibread with custom stuff added and removed.
Dont lie to the noobs.
Miui is also BUILT on CM7. so it is built on 2.3 but with different UI completely but will always be 1 step behind CM7 so its still beta as well (RC whatever f-off beta)
Search is your friend.
Thank You for your quick reply.

Galaxy Sl i9003 2.3.5 Update {notice}

Samsung Italy announced that the Samsung update for Galaxy S i9003 Gingerbread to Android will be delayed. The motivation is clear: To avoid delays in updating to version 2.3.5, we have chosen to update the terminal S Galaxy Super Clear LCD (I9003) directly to the latter version of firmware. So still waiting to see the final distribution on this Android smartphone although the consolation would be to have the version 2.3.5 instead of 2.3.4.

final distribution on this Android smartphone ..sad .
It doesn't matter it is 2.3.4 or 2.3.5 or 3.0, 4.0
It depend on what do you need from your fone
Somebody just crazy about numbers !
2.3.5 has hardly anything new with it(probaly samy gives more sources?)
but 4.0 is really something diff

Who cares! I think, like we port themes and ROMs we can try to port the 4.0 from SGS or SGSII,rrahigt?
yes,or may build one from stock android.....but it isnt as easy as porting themes!!

It is that easy...It is not easy as porting rom or themes..If it is that easy then why that time when our device only support Froyo,why no devs port gingerbread to our device before official release?
In CM7 also we found difficulties to port it and fix the bugs...it is not easy and need many efforts and experience devs to work on it.Sad to say that our communities also lack of experience devs like skin and amit..
*Just my opinion..
We can try it! I think it is useless. Before dropping into conclusion, I think, we must have atleast some hopes. Galaxy ace,Fit and 5 are gonna get the update, so why not SL? We will obviously get it. If we don't the Asia-pacific team of users in gonna get on the nerve of Sammy!
y android 4.0 or even if there is any android 5.0 if we have all the features available in 2.3.4
if we have tv out and usb otg i wont even bother which version we r usin ..
Final distribution? Sigh. It's not even an old phone. That's pretty annoying.
NIce info !
idiot samsung that the rom I want is 4.0 not 2.3.5!!!

Darn samsung..why not u give announcement that our phone will get ICS in half year 2012! sure we can wait bcoz it more worth

Nobody knows if there is an update for I9003 or not. These are all speculations.. Even Samfirmware.com don´t know it exactly!
BTW, what do you expect from Gingerbread 2.3.5 or Ice Cream Sandwich?
In 2.3.5 there are only Bugfixes and closed security gaps. ICS is only fusion of Tablet-Android and Smartphone-Android.
Really new features will only come with Jelly Bean (that´s android version after ICS) and I´m sure neither the Galaxy S or the Galaxy SLC will gain an update to this version

The 2.3.5 update is important because it fixes at least a security vulnerability in the browser, which may affect you even if you don't use the stock one.

[Q] Upgrade frrom gingerbread

Hi, I really am a complete noob on matters like this, so please any relevant answers please put in layman's terms.
I currently have a rooted desire hd running gingerbread 2.3.3, I have received a notification that I can upgrade to 2.3.5 with HTC sense 3. I want to upgrade but do not want to lose my root.
I have been trying to download the Android revolution HD 6.3.1, but it keeps timing out saying tiny.cc server is too slow or not responding.
Anyone know of any other way to upgrade to 2.3.5 with HTC sense 3 and keep the root?
Thanks

[Q] Sky ICS - SMS Time problem: Fix still needed ?

Hi all,
Yesterday I've installed the SkyRocket Ice Cream Sandwich following all the steps.
I've also installed the MMs Time Stamp fix.
From the market, SMS Time fix has been installed because there were 5 hours missing from receiving SMS...
Everything was going perfect. My SMS timestamp was perfect too.
This morning, 5 hours were added to my received sms....
So I've desinstalled the SMA Time fix installed from the Market and now everything is ok.
What could cause that ?
Another quick NOOBS question:
I've installed ICS... In my about section, I could see:
Kernel Version: 2.6.35.11+
Android Version: 2.3.6
When people talks about Ice Cream Sandwich, they talk about Android version 4.0 .
I'd like to know if this version is a real '4.0' ICS Android OS is it a 'look like' ICS ?
Thanks,
Punky

Ok just do little research and you will find that there is no ICS for our devices yet they will be here when saamy releases them. Just letting you know that searching the forum gives you all the answer for ur questions. And for sms time fix idk what's wrong but lots of ppl had that issues but i never had that issues.

Thanks for the answers....
I already knew that ICS is not available for our phone..... I would have install it !
I should have asked it this way: Is the Android version we have installed is doing the same job as the 4.0 at the OS level .....
For the SMS issue.... this morning, I had to reinforce it and add 5 hours to the incoming sms....

There is no android version that does same function as ics and Try flashing same radio that you have from Dev section it will fix ur problem.

Upgrade Android 2.3.5 to android 4.0

Hi all
how can i Upgrade Android 2.3.5 to android 4.0.
I have sought for solution but to no avail. If there is a side effect, i would like to know cos i figured its better to have it as it is than upgrade and have multiple issues.
this question might be commonplace but i do really need to know.
thanks
The 4.0 ruu was only released as a research and development release, it is buggy.
I would recommend installing a custom rom instead. (see the guides in this forum)
Yeah I agree its really not at all what its cracked up to be I regret ever downloading it
Sent from HTC desire S Android 4.0.4
I started installing 4.0.4 more than 20minutes ago whereas it should have taken about 10 minutes. I'm afraid waiting won't help. What do you suggest to recover from the situation? I don't want to have my htc bricked..
Did anything pop up on the screen during installation

DON'T go to 4.0 ROMs whatsoever. Stay with 2.3 or jump right to 4.2+ ROMs. My experience.
