Ics for xoom2 me? - Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anybody knows anything about upgrading to ICS for the XOOM 2 ME model?
Thanks

Ics for xoom 2's has only begun rollout across Europe. Im unsure about other countries and if your xoom is branded expect to be waiting longer while your carrier does tests and adds in their bloatware... Im in Australia with a branded xoom 2 and i know it will probably be a couple of months before i hear anything from my carrier about an ics update.

Polite answer - if you're getting impatient try the ICS Alpha ROMs
No one knows when the official OTA is going to come out exactly, so be patient or try out the Alphas...

so according to his twitter feed the samsung servers are giving information about ICS, he isnt answering questions though or getting into details, kind of disappointing
Well the Nexus is out now, so it shouldn't be too long. Sometime before Xmas I would imagine.

back when i had an x10 there was a website that would show firmwares being uploaded by sony ericsson for ota updates. They were usually available within a few days, so im hoping its the same case here.
Let us wait for OTA... Now I am enjoying with Kwiboo's ICS V3...
I am thinking 1st to 2nd week of December. I think Google and Samsung wants to release the Galaxy Nexus first in the US before they update the Nexus S.

It's for sure they'll hold back any OTA update until the U.S. release of the Galaxy Nexus. But I want it as soon as possible! I don't understand why some people flash ICS roms with no wifi for example, when the official update is so close.
Sent from my Nexus S using xda premium
Why is it for sure? Unless you have inside info that nobody else does. Besides the US release of the Nexus won't impact sales any because the nexus s isn't on Verizon anyways.

before we know that, we'll probably have to know when GNex is gonna be release in USA
Flodb just so you know I am running koushs rom and everything including wifi is working just fine! It also has wallet included and working. I was in all your boats waiting and wondering but I said what the hell and rooted my ns and got me some ics and love the change and hope u guys do too!

Ok, even if everything is working just fine, it doesn't really mean it doesn't have some problems. That's why an official update is better than an "alpha"/"beta" rom.
Besides, this is the reason why you buy a Nexus S in the first place, for updates. After the OTA, it's custom rom all the way
EDIT: @Jeff Dunn: almost forgot, it makes sense to release the update AFTER the phone that is supposed to be the new android flagship. And it doesn't matter that the Nexus S isn't available on verizon. You know, there are other countries outside the US... but nevermind.
Sent from my Nexus S using xda premium
But it has been released outside the US already. Which kinda invalidates your point. Regardless though we will see it when we see it. Hopefully sooner rather than later.

[Confirmed] Skyrocket will receive ICS this Summer

Lets just say I have an...informator. Anyway, I texted him and asked if he knew when ICS was coming for the Skyrocket. He released the skyrocket under his wing. He said not a specific date, but sometime this summer.
So ICS devs, keep deving.
PS.. Cant get him into to trouble, so no more info.
BALLS......
So in other words....when the international one hits. We will see that one ported before AT&T gets around to it. (the international Skyrocket or T mobile variant)

If I had to guess I bet the Prime has one hardware revision, and the galaxy even within the same device branding has multiple. The Windows Phone 7 Samsung Focus had major issues with updates, because Samsung made minor changes between rev 1.3 & 1.4.
As far as the release date for ICS a Samsung employee can just be repeating a rumor they heard, just as well as a non employee
When does samsung start their summer? I'm sure it's not the same months when we start ours.
Just like our Q1 isn't the same as theirs. Oh and the definition of soon between us and them seems to be pretty conflicting too.

Israeli Skyrocket gets updated Mid March 2012 (1st Q ) Maybe we can get code and use it on ATT and maybe not. Rumors and promises appear worthless. It is what it is and will come out someday.

I wouldn't be surprised if we didn't get ICS till summer, Sammy doesn't have a very good track record with updates. I shudder to think how long it'll take them to release the source.

Skyrim FTW!
I find it interesting that absent from this list are the Xperia phones already announced to be getting ICS by Sony.
Forget the list. They go to the block.
But the point is ... WHEN !?
Cannot wait until Q3-2012, although stock 2.3.6 is very good now.
I'm sure most of us have heard the A2 was getting ICS back when Motorola announced it but some apparently live under a rock so this is for them
ICS Upgrade rollout begins in Q3 2012. The third tax quarter begins Sunday, July 1, 2012, and ends Sunday, September 30, 2012. That means that the "official" rollout of ICS for the Atrix 2 will probably occur in that time frame. The only exception being if someone catches it on a testing server. Right now it is currently in development at Motorola, and it will go out for testing at some point. That is when it might be possible to retrieve the data.
Besides catching it on the servers, how do you sign up for testing?

Or use cheesecake, from the bootloader unlock thread. No need to have moto tell you. We should start seeing it on cheesecake very soon. We saw 2.3.6 several months before it was released.

If Motorola does it like they did the 2.3.6 update, then you take a survey and enter your email and IMEI and some other information and there's a possibility that they will email you later with information about the update. But that only happens a couple weeks before the real release.
I wouldn't want to do it anyway, can't lose my root. In my personal opinion ics is too hyped up. I'm really not that impressed with it.

Which model for Canada?

It looks like AT&T is getting model SGH-i337.
Does anyone know if Canada will be the same, or if it will be the 9505?
Just thinking ahead to ROMs and exploits.
I believe we are getting sgh-i337M

Ugh. That surely complicates using custom ROM's? Or can we use 9505 ROM with the correct radio ? Sorry, been awhile since I had an SGS II and it was an Int'l one for this reason!

I know there are a few custom rom ports for the galaxy note 2 LTE from the International Galaxy Note 2. I am sure there will be some custom roms that will be ported to work on our galaxy s 4. Europeans are getting some of the galaxy s 4s with the same hardware as we are.
I have been reading today, the bootloader may be locked on the galaxy s 4.

Hello fellow excited GS4 waiting Canadians! Is there a pre-order and arrival thread for us?

If you preordered through bestbuy canada, it is a mess, no s4 at least until wednesday next week.i was told today, they are having a hardtime to get phones even for pre-orders. There is a shortage of phones for the galaxy s 4 launch date

Canadian shortage confirmed
http://mobilesyrup.com/2013/04/26/s...omises-to-fulfill-demand-in-the-coming-weeks/
I've been using a SGS3 (GT-I9100) for about a year now. My area didn't have LTE and I wanted better access to ROMS,so it fit the bill perfectly.
Now that LTE is available in my area, would the 337 or 9505 (lack or 1700MHz LTE the only key difference?) have better options for ROMs?
Any guesses at this early stage in the game?

Official Canadian Galaxy S4 Owners Thread [Availability, Discussions, Help, Tips etc]

You may’ve heard that carriers all around the globe where Samsung Galaxy S4 has been launched are struggling to keep up with the enormous demand. In Canada, we’ve seen TELUS offering $50 $100 credit to customers willing to wait for two weeks to get their unit.
Samsung Canada is well aware of the problem not just TELUS but all other operators in the country are facing – there are still not enough Galaxy S4 units out there.
Those who pre-ordered Sammy’s flagship should be getting their phones now. That “should” is there because not everyone will get it at the same time. Pretty much all Canadian carrier issued a statement saying that pre-registration numbers are higher than any other device before, including the S3.
Samsung on its behalf is asking users for understanding. Here’s what they said on Facebook:
Samsung is excited to see the level of pre-orders that Canadian consumers have for the GALAXY S4. Samsung Canada had intended to ship pre-orders by the 27th, but due to the overwhelming global demand of the Samsung GALAXY S4, we will not be able to meet the pre-order date of April 27th for all customers. These orders remain the highest priority with carrier and retail partners and will be fulfilled in the coming days.
No doubt, this is a sweet problem for the Korean company and its shareholders…
Anybody got his hands on it??

Can you comment on whether the Telus bootloader is locked? Have you tried to root with the "AT&T" exploit?
I have not attempted to root yet. I do not think the bootloader is locked through. I will root when a custom recovery is avialable and stock rom is as well.

I don't blame you I believe you can tell if the BL is locked by booting into the (stock) recovery? I'll feel much better if Canadian BL's are unlocked as I know I'm going to hate Touchwiz and there's plenty of talk about lag.
There is no lag on my telus s4. There is only one carrier app. The at&t version I hear has lot of bloat. My s4 is lot faster
Than my note 2 and just as smooth.

I don't believe we'll be receiving the i9505 in canada. The i9505 only houses LTE Bands 1800 , 2100, 2600, 800 , 900. It's missing 1900, so chances are we are getting the SGH-i337 and i337m which support our LTE freqencies in Canada.

But they don't have the same phone model. As you know it's I337 vs. our I337M and bootloader locking comes down to the carrier.
Software is a little different but hardware is the same. Galaxy s 3, note and the note 2 were the same other than the software.

Yes, but my point is that their bootloader being locked is due to a request by AT&T. We do not know if the Rogers, Bell, and Telus requested locked bootloaders yet.

The Canadian carriers might not lock their devices, but if they do, the ATT unlocking method (if/when it comes) will apply to us. Thats why we should be watching that forum much closer than this one.
This thread really is in the wrong forum; what will be released in Canada will have very little to do with the device listed at the top of these forums (the Exynos S4). If you are Canadian I would stay very far away from any exploits posted over here.
Well, to get back on-topic, I just received an email from Fido saying my phone has been shipped to my local store by UPS. I am guessing it will arrive tomorrow.
My position on the reserve dropped from 268 to 263 on launch day at Rogers but I've been sitting at 263 ever since.
