Gooood.... Goooood.....

Keep in mind, we don't actually have the galaxy s 2, we have the skyrocket version, plus we have att's draconian certification process to get through. I'd love to see it on that date but I'll believe it when I see it.

Actually, with AT&T already giving the Vivid the ICS update, I'd say that this could be pretty realistic.
At least we know if it doesn't come soon, it's not AT&T, it's Samsung.

ICS has not been released for the Vivid. That is someone talking out of turn (a dedicated tester or volunteer tester). That realease would be all over Android Central and our website.

Love how they mention that leaked roms from Samsung are showing signs of progress. My question is, WHERE ARE THE ICS LEAKS FOR THE SKYOCKET?!?
When I had my Captivate we were getting new gingerbread leaks almost every day for several months. Who do we need to talk to to get some leaks for us? Anyone know???

How do over the air updates with AT&T's work? Isn't just a pop-up box you can cancel or are they forced or what? I rooted my mom's phone but left in stock. Not sure what to expect.

It gives you a notification saying you have an update available, if you want to install it or not, is your choice.
Sometimes you'll even get a text informing you that your phone has an update available.

Another question for the updates, is it only for carrier sold phones? I bought mine at the US but I'm at Israel and I still haven't received the 2.3.6 update.

Very good news, will open development of some nice ROM's. Maybe it will keep me from flashing once or twice a week.

I doubt it. We'll see though, hopefully they surprise.

To throw my two cents in, the fact that SGSII international is getting it soon and supposedly Vivid is getting it now is a good sign for us.
However, I really don't like TouchWiz's overlay of ICS. To me one of the main features of ICS was a revamped and slick look. TouchWiz 4 just kills that. So what do I, personally (and anyone who feels the same) have to look foward to with ICS?
This is coming from an Android noob btw, so if there was extra features besides the FaceUnlock *useless imo* and sleek UI please enlighten me.

The real benefit will be the Kernel getting into the hands of the Devs. In time, they will do many thing with it including a non-Touchwiz version ROM.

From what I understand ICS is completely redone. There are alot of new code and things done different from previous versions of Android. I can understand why nothing has really been released yet. I know there is a couple versions of ICS over in the development section but there are very few things that work.

I wish they would add an option to see what your contacts have loaded as far as apps. There is so many out there it's hard to know what's good and what people are using.

Heh if only we could get a kernel. Sadly there will not be one until sammy releases an offical GB which I hear could be happening beginning next year. When it comes to placing blame its not so much Samsung at fault here. I mean there seems to be a new leak at least once a week here so its not like they aren't working on it. If fault should be placed anywhere its with Tmobile who pretty much doesn't give a fck if you have GB on your phone. They've pretty much taken the, if its not broke don't update it approach.
Well at least he didn't swear at the devs this time.

Thats what I've been wondering actually.
I've only had an android since like march, rooted it within a couple months just so I could delete bloatware, but only really got into flashing and stuff about a month ago. So what's so great about miui that everyone keeps bringing it up? Surely it can't really be any better than whats already available to us.
@scoop_dtx, @95Z28
AFAIK its a ROM that gets official with the MIUI people and receives OTA updates each times a new version is available. Just like CM7. I think.

Yeah, supposedly, it's on par with CM7 now.
As someone who has been running MIUI since April, there are many advantages to using MIUI over other AOSP ROM's.
First, I love the fact that it gets updated weekly. Having to flash nightlies like with CM7 can be a hassle. Once a week works perfect for me and they are constantly making it better and the user interface just works.
Second, look @ this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=990233 There are a few thousand posts to look through to see how you can customize MIUI. You can literally customize every single aspect of the ROM to your liking and I wouldn't want to have my phone any other way.
MIUI has been my daily driver for the better part of the last year and I don't plan on looking back unless something else truly mindblowing comes along.

I bet Motorola is working really hard on crippling down Android ICS. They are trying to figure out, how to make as laggy as possible with the most choppy and useless interface...
I mean seriously, how does it feel to be a MotoBlur developer? How can you be consciously developing crap ?

According to DroidLife it looks like Motorola is keeping their hands mostly off ICS. Yes, it'll have Blur, but it looks like it'll be slightly less Blur than we're use to seeing.
Of course this is for the Razr, but the Blur versions on the Atrix 2 and the Razr are pretty similar, so this could be a good sign.
I don't find the Blur on the Atrix 2 to be all that bad, and my phone seems to perform just fine with it.
I think people need to stop *****ing about blur. If you don't like it, you shouldn't of bought a Motorola phone. That is my opinion.

Their Gingerbread release for the Atrix and Atrix 2 wasn't really all that bad at all. Not a whole lot of blur going on. Relax man. That whole thing seems to be in the process of being phased out. What we have now seems more true to plain old Android than say Samsung's Touchwiz, or all that weird **** that LG piles on top of their phones.

Seriously though, the way Samsung / AT&T has screwed up the 2.3.6 UCLA update (and other) I think it is better to wait a little longer so hopefully they can get ICS right. Derping your phone with a hosed AT&T ICS update could potentially be worse than with the 2.3.6 update because there isn't anything to fall back on yet for ICS recovery.
It'll be okay bro.

Not sure what you are talking about, the Site says shipping with 2.3.
http://shop.sprint.com/mysprint/sho...&flow=AAL&planSKUId=null&tabId=dt_phones&ptn=
the spec sez 2.3
if you hover on the android it sez 4.0
my money would be on 2.3.7

Never ever ever trust what the sprint website says when it comes to this stuff. It will always be false till you see it yourself. They did this with the epic a few times, saying it was running gb way before the epic got the ota.

Hopefully some good news coming our way soon
I just checked it out and it does show Ship with 4.0 for me I even took a screen cap of it!

I would be shocked if it really ships with ICS for at least several more months. And by then, will this phone even be available from Sprint?
according to sprint online chat the 4.0 update is available...and she said it ships with 4.0
