I researched this before I bought my Plus. I would not have bought it without assurances from Samsung that this would indeed upgrade to ICS.
I, for one, cannot wait!!!!

Are you sure about Q1? The announcement seemed to suggest the S2 and galaxy R were Q1 and all others would follow.

Of course converting Q1 2012 from the "Samsung Timezone" to UTC means it's actually Q4 2012.

Well, whatever it is, I just hope the update will come as soon as possible!

So do I... But from my experience with my past 2 Samsung devices... They tend to push back release dates 4-5 times before actually releasing the update. (Moment and Epic 4g)
Although maybe I just had bad luck in picking those two particular devices.

Actually Samsung is pretty timely with updates - as long as there is NOT a North American carrier in the loop (So T-Mobile TabPlus users are probably screwed.)
Once there's a North American carrier in the loop - you're screwed with almost any device from any manufacturer. The Tab 10.1 received updates in a fairly timely fashion, the I9000 did too, and the I9100 seems to be coming along fine.

I am surprised
I am very concerned and surprised that Chinese tablets are coming with ICS 4.3, even Sony S tablet has already updated to ICS via OTA and our device still has the same version that is Honeycomb. The most amazing thing is that Samsung is mentioning that our device is starting to receive the updates but when??? They are saying the same thing from long time ago.
there are no ICS updates for this devices...???
just curious, samsung forget this tab
Nothing yet, I think Samsung will not update it.
Don't think there will be, since SS just released Tab 2 which is an ICS tab... (possibly to take down kindle)
the Plus is a relatively young device. it MUST receive ics.

They said it may get ICS, but being a new device means nothing. For Samsung, 'soon' usually applies only to the next device they want to sell you.

It is in the list of devices, that will get ics
But first....
It could receive ICS but Samsung needs to sell his new ICS TAB 2 devices to the customers who are expecting the new android version anxiously. the strategy works because many people prefer selling their old tablet and buy a new one.
We could just hoping that we WILL receive ICS.. we'll just need to wait n see..

ICS is starting to drip down to Samsung devices . . . . June looks like a good month for ICS and Samsung.

Galaxy S2 phones in Canada began getting ICS starting in May. Given that phone came out about a year or so before the Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus... well, some Galaxy S phones in the US only just got Gingerbread in May.
With that sort of precedent, I fear we might not get ICS until the Google Nexus Tablet 2 with the Tegra 5 chipset is released.
Our tab will get ics, its a known fact. As much as I want the ics upgrade, I am happy they have not released it yet because we would all be *****ing about the peel ap not working with ics and other things that make the gal plus tab better that the the basic tabs that did get the update. Look at the asus transformer ts3, mybrother in law has it and it is a disaster right now.

official ics gtab 7.7 out now

Its official the galaxy tab 7.7 is receiving ics as I write this.... 7 plus be prepared.
http://www.phonesreview.co.uk/2012/07/04/galaxy-tab-line-4-0-ics-update-hitting-samsung-devices-now/
Says Australia is the first country to receive the update.
7.7 received the update yesterday and not only for Australia, the firmware is multi-CSC.
But hey! This is a 7+ thread nobody cares about P6800, right?
Just thought people would get excited that Samsung has started pushing ics out to the old galaxy line. I have a 7+ and was pretty happy to hear the exynos 7.7 is updated hopefully the 7 plus is next. At least a less buggy 7+ cm9 can come from the 7.7 update.

[Q] galaxy note 3?

hello xda, i have a question. i have an upgrade to my contract in june/july and i want to get a galaxy note 2 but i do not think that that will be a good time since they released it last September and will probably release another one around that time. is there any way that i could get vodafone (uk) to hold off my upgrade until the note 3 comes out? what do you think? should i get a note 2 at that time or what? can you hold off an upgrade? thanks in advance.:laugh:
I don't think they are gonna release note 3 any way sooner to s4. S4 has been dated for may. So note3 will be like 2-3 months after that.
PS - at that time if note 3 is out already, then y wud u wanna get note 2?

I said s4 is dated for may. Not note 3. That's the time they have released all the S devices until now and it's also confirmed officially.
life!
But I don't think the virtual laser keyboard that they are featuring in s4 is possible...its impressive if what they say is real...it projects the keyboard to your desk and you touch your desk surface to type! Whoa...

Samsung Galaxy Tab 3

I heard this from a friend and I want to make sure that this information is correct. Is the Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 coming out soon? if so when and where can I find this info so I can read it for my self?
I also have the Original Samsung Galaxy Tablet 10.1 (WiFi) and I am running 4.0.4 and I am wanting to know if and when 4.1.2 or Jelly Bean will be officially released for the Original Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1. I do not want to root or download a Non Official rom to my tab.
I do not know about Galaxy Tab 3. But I do know that the original Galaxy Tab 10.1 is not included in the list of devices Samsung plan to update to Jelly Bean. So ICS 4.0.4 is the last update you are getting. If you want Jelly Bean, however, you will have to root your tab and install custom rom. I also use the original tab and in addition to ICS I also run 4.1.2 and the current Jelly Bean 4.2.2, both courtesy of an XDA Developer, Pershoot.

(Deleted. I misread the thread.)
There was some mentioning a couple of weeks back that this GT-P8200 got its BT certification and meanwhile also the WIFI one http://www.tabletblog.de/2013/03/samsung-galaxy-tab-3-plus-wlan/
They even claimed it could become announced together with the Galaxy S IV
lets see whether and when it appears - still thinking of to sonys xperia Tablet Z or the Asus TF700 as an alternative (with the latter being a bit rusty)
hopefully soon

I have no inside information about a pending release of a Tab 3, or anything else for that matter, but I noticed something interesting at the AT&T store yesterday. They have a special going on right now if you buy a Samsung S3 phone for $199, (with a contract), you can also purchase a Tab 2 10.1, (with a SIM card) for an additional $199. Not a bad deal if you want a Tab 2. I am sure that the S3 will enjoy a big price cut as soon as the S4 hits the stores, however.
We all know that the S3 will soon be replaced by the S4 and retailers are probably looking for ways to clear out the existing inventory. The same might be going on with the Tab 2. This could be an indication that the Tab 3 is on the way as well. Time will tell.
almost a month later and still no news on a new 10' flagship tablet from Samsung. The same old news get recycled every now and then but nothing tangible.
Hopefully after the launch of the S4 we start hearing real "new" news about a octo core powered retina all sing all dance tablet that is available in the not too distant future
don't want to wait till x-mas ...

I was hoping to hear something similar by now, too... my guess (hope) was that details would start to slip out about a new uber-powered GTab and a possible release date when the S4 was ready - but the lack of noise makes me wonder if a Nexus 10 is in my near future instead. The 16 and 32GB versions are in stock... wait a couple more weeks for some news, or 2 days for a new toy from Google on my doorstep... decisions, decisions.
galaxy note = galaxy tab + stylus???
http://www.theverge.com/2013/4/29/4281278/samsung-galaxy-tab-3-announcement
Looks like they're basically just updating the look of the Tab 2 7" to match the Galaxy lineup hardware design. Almost identical specs to last year's model. And no mention of a 10" model.
I have the Tab 2 7" and don't want a much bigger device (although I could live with 8".) But I was at least hoping for a resolution bump. Hopefully the Nexus 7.7 rumors will pan out.
Is it me or are the specs for the Galaxy Tab 3 super underwhelming. Dual core 1.2 ghz? Thats what I have my 1st gen galaxy tab running at lol.
i bought an att samsung galaxy tab 10.1 sgh i497 yesterday and im dissapointed that it doesnt have built in phone and messaging, there is a mod on this forum for the older model which i forget the model number they listed but its 3g, the one i have is LTE , i hope someone develops a phone mod for this i really wanted it to be a phablet

Here is what you are looking for
well at least the Samsung galaxy tab 3 7 inch has been released and it is a little less wide than the tab 2. micro usb charger is nice and aluminum bumpers, other than that everything has already been said.
I am curious when developers will post their findings as I am not pleased with the stock rom. Wifi kicks out after being idle.
SM-T210R is the model number
Here are some pics with the Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1!
Am I missing something or is it basically the same tablet we have but with a different processor and IR blaster?

Kids mode is nice, for the ones whom need it.
But the download booster sounds just silly to me, in most country there's a limit on MB's on 3/4G networks.
Or is it just me that my home network is way faster than the 4G counterpart...
ps "Download booster" only combines the 3/4G network and wifi for higher speeds.
