Only Samsung knows when the device will be updated to ICS and they are not telling anyone.
Well, it is no fair if samsung galaxy tab 2 got ICS while we dont.. we have better specs than them

That's pretty stupid. Will your Tab not be able to browse the internet in a year? Will it no be able to stream media in a year? Will its GPS become obsolete in a year? How exactly will your tablet be meaningless unless you're simply using it to boost your own self-image?
Have you tried ICS on the new GT7-2? I didn't see all that much difference personally.
My hold out for ICS was with the Peel application. Their retarded engineers and support went on blaming the Honeycomb IR drivers for their application NOT working properly on the GT7+ (since aruond February of 2012 for me) and promised that ICS, and its updated drivers, would fix it all. Then out of the blue they release another update to Peel last night and all the change log says is "bug fixes". Guess what? They finally got it working (within reason) without ICS. Time will tell if I get random FC's again but for now it looks like I can live without ICS...
@fcorona76;
Couldn't agree more.
In my opinion, you buy a device becuase of its out of the box functionality. A new version of an operating system should be seen as a bonus rather than a selling point, in February, I bricked my Sony Tablet S - wasn't prepared to pay £100 to get it fixed so I bought the Samsung Galaxy Tab 7+ thinking that my Sony was lost in space and that this device would be better.
On May 31st 2012, Sony released ICS for the Tablet and I was able to recover my device - I actually forgot what a neat device it was, there's no lag with it, good functionality and I'm now going to sell my Galaxy Tab 7+ - it's just not what I expected from Samsung, maybe my expectations where high but at £300 I expected a pretty lag-less device.
Looking at the other ICS Samsung devices, it looks like on this device it will really only affect the visuals rather than the functionality, the only thing I would want with ICS is the browser supports CSS3.
To be fair, I feel a little "guilty" with my Samsung Tabet, I shouldn't really have to root and tweak it to get it to be lag free.
Just my ten pence.
thank you for your answers
so can be july or august +-
I believe we will get ICS in late July

It'll be radicolous when Tab+ with better components than Tab 2.0 won't get ICS. If Sony will try do good Android tablets and give such support as for phones I'll simply go for it.
Hopefully they would be able to have an update by july. I read from another site that they are starting to roll out ICS update in Canada and GT7+ is one of it on the list.

Samsung Electronics plan to provide the Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich update for GALAXY devices. The platform update for GALAXY S II and GALAXY Note will start in the first quarter 2012, and other GALAXY devices will soon follow.
The ICS-upgradable devices are the GALAXY S II, GALAXY S II LTE, GALAXY Note, GALAXY R, GALAXY Tab 10.1, GALAXY Tab 8.9, GALAXY Tab 7.7, and GALAXY Tab 7.0 Plus.
For upgradable models, Samsung will make separate announcements on details of OS updates schedule for each market according to market situation and carriers’ requirements.
Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich and Samsung GALAXY Nexus, the first Ice Cream Sandwich powered smartphone, were first unveiled at a Google/Samsung joint news conference in Hong Kong on October 19th.
Ice Cream Sandwich brings an entirely new look and feel to Android. It has a redesigned user interface with improved multi-tasking, notifications, Wi-Fi hotspot, NFC support and a full Web browsing experience. Ice Cream Sandwich also features a new People App which lets users browse pictures, messages and social network updates from friends, family and co-workers.
Ice Cream Sandwich also introduces innovations such as Face Unlock, which uses facial recognition to unlock the smartphone. Using NFC technology, Android Beam allows users to quickly share Web pages, apps and YouTube™ videos with friends by simply tapping two phones back-to-back. Users can even use fun effects while shooting video or video chatting with Google Talk™.
Yay ... bring it

Because some of us don't want to go down the Cooked Rom Road. Used to do it with my other phones but I need this one to be stable for business purposes. Don't want to be re-flashing and re-configuring every few days just to trade old bugs for new bugs. I love being on the cutting edge but between working, being a home owner and a dad I just don't have the time to do it right.

Agreed. If your phone is for business, then yes one should wait for an OTA update. Rock steady stability, is of greater importance than having a rom that is potentially buggy.

I have a Captivate and thinking about going with the SR but I must clarify, that the Captivate on AT&T has no Gingerbread update still! Of course I have been on GB for months on various custom ROM's. Every now and then I think about the people that are still on Froyo and it is hard to swallow. This is one reason that I would hesitate on the SR. Samsung may provide updates but AT&T takes FOREVER to test and release them. This phone is my daily driver and I am a heavy corporate user. I have had good luck with custom ROM's and would have to continue down this same path if I got a SR. Frankly, there are so many other benefits to custom ROM's that I would probably go that route even if I had a Galaxy Nexus.
Well, if att messes this up we can always port from rogers or T-Mobile

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.

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..

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.

So back in December, Samsung stated that ICS would be available for Galaxy devices in Q1 2012 (http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2397850,00.asp - among other sources).
Someone asked on Facebook when the update for the Galaxy Nexus S was coming and Samsung stated that "ICS updates for Galaxy devices will be available in early Q2." (https://www.facebook.com/samsungmobilecanada/posts/10150560045396050)...
Idk, that may be a bit different because the Nexus S is in the original Galaxy S family. Those are going to be updated after all the Galaxy S2 devices. They actually weren't even going to release the update for those phones initially.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
Some rumors said march first, which would be q1 and not going to happen. Some leaked document i saw said april which would be early q2. God knows what they are doing over there. I want aosp/cm9 anyway, but if they release ics it might help get us closer.
I am so sick of this too.....
From now on I am only getting Nexus Devices
I'm sick of it too, but used to it. They just released official Gingerbread for the Captivate (my previous phone) a few weeks ago after XDA users had been running leaked versions for several months. But the devs here on XDA already have (as I understand it) some pretty kickass ICS roms available for the Captivate.
Don't hold your breath waiting for AT&T/Samsung. We'll have ICS here on XDA long before they make it officially available (but...without a secure element we won't be able to use Google Wallet--not sure how they're going to solve that one...re-issued sim cards maybe?)
Sounds like it's all Galaxy devices:
https://www.facebook.com/samsungmobilecanada/posts/10150560045396050
That being said, I wasn't holding my breath either for an official release but figured when one came it might help speed up some things here on XDA or for the CM guys.
And yeah, I was running ICS on my Cappy for a couple months before it died (needed a new mobo so the cost of upgrading to the SGS II LTE was actually cheaper than the repair on my Cappy - go figure)... the official Samsung/Rogers upgrade cycle on the Cappy was horrendous as well, bought it with Froyo, an hour later had CM7 on it, and it wasn't long afte they updated officially to GB that I was running TeamHacksung ICS alpha builds on it.
We'll be lucky to get official ICS before Jellybean is released
That is Samsung mobile Canada stating that. So may be different for us in the states. But what I think is funny is the vivid is getting the update soon, and if I'm not wrong both phones came out on the same day. So no blaming this on the carrier this time. Damn Sammy LOL.

True, it is Samsung Mobile Canada - I wasn't expecting us (or the US) to get it in Q1 anyways (officially) as the original statement I believe was for the international versions of the Galaxy S II/Note. Still, was hoping that the international stock rom would help jump/fix kinks some of the developers here are trying to overcome.

To clarify, they only said the international versions of the S II and the Note would get it in Q1. The others that were announced to get ICS have never been given a time frame, other than that they would follow those two.

Yes, I do understand that fully. Not holding my breath that the international version will be rolling out any time soon either.
Looking into the dev forum there are two promising roms one in alpha 1 with basic functions working and another one that the mods and the dev keep fighting over is a lot further along but I think was taken down again :-(. I'm guessing we have about a month maybe a bit more before we have some awesome functioning ics rom's

Imho, anytime a phone 1 year old or less has to wait 6+ months for a new Android OS upgrade, the OEM is failing to live up to Google and more importantly, the customers, standards.
The number of casual users who won't even recognize the fact that their phone upgraded from 2.3 to 4.0 is the number two reason these companies don't push hard to keep their phones up to date. With the number one reason being money. It's more profitable to lock out 1 year old phones from staying up to date, making that new device running the new version of Android more enticing and a possible sale from people who fall for gimmicky sales tactics.
Realistically Google wants every phone to be on ICS right now. At least, any phone that has the hardware to run it. Which in all honesty, is any mid range phone from 2010 and up. Certainly a flagship 2011 phone should be quite capable of running ICS, don't you think? So whats the only other possible explanation? See paragraph 2 and it'll be easily understood.

Maybe JB is released to solve brick bug present in ICS for these devices...
This may answer why ICS hasn't officially been released yet for 3 months in many regions (including mine).
Yeah, I do hope that brick bug gets fixed. Although there was a fix found for that as I remember. It was posted around the forums.
I really hope this will fix the major Bluetooth issue with the ICS version of this tablet!

I would not hold my breath for Jelly Bean after all it took them around 9 months to get ICS out after it was released last November.

Then it would cost them a lot of bricked devices due to broken recovery in ics
I hope they are in hurry to fix that in order to reduce the number of RMA requests due to hard brick while resetting to factory default
Since Samsung is already putting out test releases of 4.1 JB for the P3100 (tab 2.7 ) It might not be too long. Yeah , I know, its a different processor.

I hope that too. but I hope for Wi-Fi fix for current official rom first.
Present I use CM10 because I can't connect Wi-Fi in many sites. :crying:
I tried more solution but can't solve this problem
Don't expect to receive the update until next year for P6200 and 6 month (maybe a year?) for P6210.
I'm not happy with Samsung and I'm not alone.
I bought my gtab and a Sony smartphone 6 month ago.
In 6 month the phone receive 5 updates (3 GB and 2 ICS) and in the same time my gtab receive only one update (crappy Honeycomb).
Luckily XDA is here for me and I can flash ICS with Odin (but first attempt trigger the infamous brick bug).
It's a shame to spend for 350 € (I live in Belgium) and see our product forgotted by his constructor.
Long time ago I've a same story with a Toshiba tablet and tell me not to revive this with my new tablet.
I choose to buy Samsung to avoid this but this firm disappointed me.
One thing is certain my next tab won't be a Samsung.!

Just get a nexus and stay away from anything else if you want good software support

That was my 1st choice, but the lack of SD card kills me. If I want to pay 4-8x market price for memory memory I'll buy an iPad.

The lack of SD afraid me too but I don't want to ear a single word about iOS products
I've a mac computer back but the fruit company disgust me now specialy with her mobile products.
ACER or ASUS could be a good choice but Sony makes products that look different.

This is great news, but I hope that they fix the wifi issue. My wife's tablet cannot stay connected to the wifi, and it is like it has become worse the further away she moved from Honeycomb. I also hope that they reinstate App2SD ability and give us the option to add our own apps or shortcuts to the mini apps tray.. I don't care how long it takes to receive an update, just as long as they fix the wifi and app2sd issues.
Hopefully this update will bring more interested developers for our tablets.

And if you ask me, being JB a minor upgrade over ICS, I don't think we're gonna get through all the hazzle we experienced in the last update.

Please check the date when the topic was posted. This was posted way earlier than that.
not sure the details of your wifi issue, I met one with mine which is given to my gf and it just cannot get connected to her home's broadband which works fine even using the same AP. Finally I find http://www.fardjad.com/android/wifix/ and it works now. Hope it works for you
