ICS being ported to SGS I9000... Is there hope for the Infuse?

Hey my fellow Infuse owners!! Just got done reading the article about ICS being ported to the SGS I9000! Dose this mean the Infuse stands a better chance of geting a rom or port?

Hopefully with a modified kernel (ala Hellraiser) we'll be able to run this one day. This is pretty good news.

I promise you we'll care more when at least a system dump from the Galaxy Nexus is out, but more like when the source is out. Have patience. Not much longer.

Just saw that a successful alpha of ICS has been ported to the SGS so I think we're getting closer and closer. Once a full working version is up and running on the SGS I really hope that one of our devs will port it!

No point in porting it. We can do it ourselves when we get the proper files (which require a system dump or source).

We'll be seeing some form of ICS long before AT&T ever releases gingerbread. What a joke.

Fine with me. I'd rather have modded ics than stock OR modded gingerbread...
I'm sure everyone would agree with that. And yes. Att is a joke.

Honestly in all due respect, I tried contacting several people from Samsung and tried to get answers to all my question's from those bone heads. I think Samsung is dragging their feet on Gingerbread, this has nothing to do with At&t at all. At&t was ready to give us some sort of GB release back in August, seems to me Samsung keeps holding back because all their newer phones are getting the most respect right now and not our already 1 penny Infuse.
Enough Said........

Exactly it. We are not going to get an official release from sammy, people should just get used to the fact cm7 and miui is the only chance for us and ics. Maybe someone can port it from the i9000 but that's just a maybe. CM7 lead the way lol.

Samsung is a complete joke. This is like a bad OS software. EX: Windows ME!, theirs nothing they can fix so they skipped it creating another phone next to this, Basically the only phone next to this would be the SkyRocket, Shares all aspects of our beloved Infuse, just upgraded hardware and better Support, plus they are getting ICS in the beginning of next year.

need quick answers on ROM, kernel and few others

OK so background story:
I ordered a i9100 from clove and the screen is defective. I don't have time to send it back and wait for a new one. So someone is buying this one (buyer knows about screen). Anyway
Looking for a good kernel and a good clean, stable, fast ROM. Over locking ability would be nice but if not I need to remove that BS bloat ware and tethering without AT&T knowing. That's why I like the international version.
Is the SR getting any love from the dev community in regards to CM9?
I usually search for a few days but need to know fast because I'm getting this phone or regular S2.
Side note: Hawaii should be getting LTE early 2012.

Theres a few roms out. And an overclock kernel . You should def get the skyrocket. Its confirmed by Att for ics. And the origional gs2 will never have lte. Also bigger display ia awesome.

What ROM and kernel do you recommend for speed, clean and stable

Early 2012 and sammy has actually been.better then any of the others with updates. We got one to 2.3.6 less then a month after the skyrocket was released

I don't think there has been any official announcement by Tmobile or Samsung that we will get ICS. All the reviews of this phone around the internet just assume it will, eventually...
They may get around to it in a few months after every version of the SGS2 is updated...

if I remember correctly, someone spotted a post on TMobile help center or something that blaze will be getting it soon

Samsung and T-Mobile plan to release a software update for the Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G that updates the device software to Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich). The dates for this future update are TBD, but this document will be updated when details become available

Thanks, but Tmobile's promises are worth less than the 2 seconds it took me to scan that page. Actually, I'd like those seconds back. Learned this the hard way with the Vibrant, which would still be running Eclair if it were up to Tmobile. As it was, it took a full-on smear campaign to get Samsung to release a piss-poor update to Froyo that you had to know about to get, no OTA. So don't hold your breath on this one. I won't believe it until i see it.

i had a vibrant also so i know exactly how you feel.
but the guy said there was nothing "official" so i assumed he wanted to hear something from tmobile, so i put up the link.
not sure what else i could have done better here.

Seems Samsung has gotten better with updates since then...I'd least I would hope so. Otherwise, I wouldn't even be looking at this phone.

Trev, I wasn't ranting at you, sorry if that was the impression. I am just a little pissed that T-Mo and Samsung always seem to make update promises, but never deliver. I really like the Blaze 4g, except for all the bloat, but I won't pick one up until it receives official ICS, or is supported by AOKP. I'm tired of hacked ROMs, and now that I have AOKP ICS for my Vibrant, I can never go back to gingerbread or lower.

Go get some of Seanz ROM based on the official Rogers ICS. It is fast and when coupled with the Mohan kernel even the touch key lights work. Sean may not even mess (I just read his post) with the ATT official because of too much bloat.
This thing is superfast, it downloaded and installed all of my previously installed apps without any user intervention. Facial recog works etc.
This ROM is perfect for me as it is (assuming btooth and wifi is ok which I couldn't test at work)
Assuming these last two things work I won't even download the offical ATT...

So close...yet so far. We are better off custom roms which is in a way more advanced than stocks.

I have to agree rogers would be better for a build. ATT roms are always 150mg larger because of the BS they do with it. Rogers will always be a little better. And they are really the exact same besides the bloat and modem.

Sky ICS based on the Rogers build works great! I personally prefer the CM9 builds, Rogers modem, and Instigator X kernel. There are plenty of options for Skyrocket users without having to worry about an official AT&T build - which is surely to be bloated to death anyway.

Running SKY ICS 4.3f here, thing is smooooth. Was with 4.3E up until today. With a ROM this good, who would want to go stock?

Please let us know how the battery life is with SKY ICS

If you are worried about bloat, why not just freeze it? Its something that YOU would have to do yourself but still. And its fairly easy.

Looks like S2 users have to wait a bit..

Maybe they are putting i777 on hold so they can release i777 and i727 at the same time to reduce the whining.

Here is an actual quote from AT&T PR as to what is going on withthe SGS II AT&T ICS update.
We plan for the upgrade to Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) for Galaxy S II customers to be live very soon. Like with every OS update, we test it on our servers before we roll it out to customers. We’re in the process of doing that with Android 4.0 (ICS) for Galaxy S II customers and hope to make that live soon. We recommend customers wait to attempt the update.

We're official!!! CM10 Nightlies, here we come :)

Seems my hard work has finally paid off!
https://plus.google.com/+CyanogenMod/posts/TKJdwcptRRv
I'll update my thread accordingly once the nightlies begin. Since it'll be a couple of days before the nightlies actually begin, I'll run another build in the mean time. Partly because I want to make sure the CM repo will produce good builds
Yay!
Bugs that still exist: touchkey w/ BLN that they're using is just an interim driver... I need to finish porting that. Also, the random WIFI MAC bug. Ugh.
Oh! And there's a work around for users of the official CWM in ROM Manager. Until once the new builds kick in, you should be able to install them through the official CWM, which will allow CWM to update and correct their problem. This is some serious catch 22 stuff. But it'll get worked out.
Otherwise, you people should be able to start enjoying some nightly CM goodness.
I can then go on to finish the I577 port and get them on their way as well...

Hell yeah! In a couple of weeks we went from doubting whether we'd ever see ICS on our phones to official CM10 support.
Seems I've lucked out with the purchase of my last two phones thanks to the awesomeness of the folks here on XDA. A couple years ago the HD2 was the most powerful subsidized phone available from T-Mobile (Nexus One was probably the best phone but couldn't afford to buy it in full). I reluctantly bought the HD2 but wanted Android OS so bad. About a month later devs ported a stable rom over via SD card and then made it NAND flash-able.
A couple months ago I was due for an upgrade again. I had to buy two phones (my wife's MyTouch 3G just wasn't cutting it for her) so I was again on a limited budget. When I looked at the specs I chose the Blaze since it seemed like the most powerful phone for the money. I was again bummed because it was running an older OS version than my two year old WinMo phone but now here we are!
:good::victory:

Could someone explain to a newbie, like myself, how official CM is different than unoffical.
Does it mean that offical CM fixes are automatically generated for Blaze every night? Is there a different place to grab these updates, than here in the Blaze Development forum.

Yeah, CM official will be generated on their servers (which are some serious kit) vs. the 4.5 hours builds required of my home machine.
The nightlies (in theory) should begin tonight, I'll update the main thread once it's all officially there.
I've been working closely with the devs in CM to get all this committed, therefore the next nightly should be just like my 10/09 build + my BLN fix + changes within CM from 10/09-10/12 (which in theory will be the first nightly). And then every nightly after that will get the CM updates moving forward.
With CM10 being official, it might not be too far of a jump to also add official CM9 builds. The device definition is mostly the same, just a matter of different binary blobs for the video. I'll have to talk to the guys about that.
The majority of the work I did was in porting the kernel changes into the main kernel repo. This is also going to benefit the CM9 build as erikmm asked for a copy of my patches. It means he'll get my WiFi random MAC bug (until I fix it), but other stuff should work... better?
Either way... a day to celebrate

We'll get an M in a Month, the M3 (hopefully about the same time I place my order for an M3 ). They specifically held the kernel patches back so they could roll out the M release first. And they did this understandably. The patches I did could have seriously affected a few other builds (T989, I727, I717), etc... So they waited till after the monthly to add the kernel patches and add us to the device tree. CM had been in a soft freeze mostly for the last week.
