Who's got the official update for Ice cream sandwich secondly in the world?
the answer is not Nexus S but Huawei Honor (U8860)
the official website of Huawei already provided the ICS update download at here:
http://www.huaweidevice.com/cn/technicaIndex.do?method=gotoProductSupport&productId=3826&tb=0
these photos are from CMO of Huawei's weibo(Chinese version of twitter)
just confirmed: although this offical update is a demo, not the final version, but Google, u just pissed our Nexus users off ! why still no OTA?

This is why Huawei has already the update: https://www.codeaurora.org/gitweb/quic/la/?p=kernel/msm.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/msm-3.0
Qualcomm 3.0 kernel + AOSP.
****... thats not cool. We're supposed to the first ota.. COME ON GOOGLE!!!
Sent from my Nexus S using xda premium
It should be the first one to receive OTA update....
GN comes with ICS.
And huawei isn't bull ****... it should be the largest telecommunication hardware company in the world. Even the broadband you use right now is made by huawei...
Yeah, I'm a chinese, but not from China...

Actually GN got the 4.0.1 OTA yeah I agree the 3g USB broadband stick was made by them and that helped me alot lol. When I had my HTC desire it helped me make gold cards.
Oh forgot to add, do you think Google reads this threads ? Lol. Because I need them to know that waiting for the update is hard.

I'm assume the person that said that was referring to their phones. They make cheap, ugly, low-quality devices that no one really cares for.
If google reads this, come one guys, you cant keep us waiting forever.
Why huawei first instead of NS
Sent from my Nexus S using xda premium
So it angers that they provided a preview? I am using a preview... who cares?
Where is my G Nexus?
You guys know the Google doesn't create the update for huwaie, right?
anything useful into those packages?
I've no idea about what hardware that Huwey uses... but I suppose there are other phones sharing the same SOC and that would make a good use of those binaries...
//EDIT:
if I'm not mistaken it uses the same SoC as the Desire HD?
I smell full ICS kernels for desire HD finally coming
Great move by Huavei! Don't realy care about ICS, gingerbread is great.

Only in North America, and that's only because the American gov't has limited the scope of Huawei's dealings with American carriers. They did so because Huawei works closely with the Chinese gov't and Congress didn't like that they would sell a lot of high end phones in the U.S. In the rest of the world, you can find high end devices that are competitive with Samsung and HTC.. So thank your Congressmen and women for that.

Its just a demo version. It can do nothing.
The sdk port for NS is even more stable.

Looks pretty real to me, didn't know it had disabled nfc
Sent from my HTC One S using xda premium
highly doubt it's real since if it's there, HTC should've advertise it so they will get more praise for it.
What about the Samsung s2? That has NFC but not in the software.
Sent from my HTC One S using xda premium
Probably not. NFC can't get through the metal back cover. Since it can't, I doubt HTC put any NFC chips in the device.

That's why the top and bottom covers are plastic. NFC could get out, just like wifi and cell does.
Why would they put NFC in the device and not advertise it ? They know what they put into the phone as much as id like it to be real it must be fake
Sent from my HTC One S using xda premium
Be nice if this is true. Not too bothered about it now though as NFC isn't really a big feature here in the UK (yet.....) and can't see it being that popular/"the norm" for at least another year.
It has happened in other phones as well i.e. my last android phone, the Samsung galaxy spica i5700, it had a FM radio chip and also multi-touch, both weren't enabled with stock samsung software and weren't advertised at all or listed in the specs. either, thankfully, one great developer got the multi-touch working superbly.
Is the youtube video creator a xda member?

Have the tear downs not showed a NFC chip ?
Sent from my HTC One S using xda app-developers app
I have build an NFC Chip into my Computer to test the possibilities of NFC with my One X. So I thought, could it be that the One S also has an NFC Chip but disabled it so that the One X has an benefit against his little brother. Than I tried to port the NFC Drivers from the One X to the S and it works very well, but you can't disable it and there is no Android Beam yet. I try to cook an NFC enabled, RUU based Rom with working Android Beam. Download Link: Is coming soon!

Yup David111jr did have this up a few days ago....but the title of his thread didnt help to entice people to read :silly: When i showed this to a few other people, it was mentioned that it might be the cleaver use of Chrome to Phone. It would be awesome if it turned out to be true, but since people like to play nice tricks like this, we will have to wait and see. As for Leedroid, looking through his thread it looks like he might be busy with home things (after all awesome devs have home lives too ) . Hopefully a dev can either debunk or reproduce it. I will keep my fingers crossed for sure!!
Chrome to phone for sure. I call shenannigans.

Got mine the other day and so far im loving it. What customizations have you done so far? So far I am trying out the Apex launcher, and using Skype for voice calling, but would like to find something that doesn't cost. We have a case coming that has a built in Bluetooth keyboard.
I deal with Excel all day and the Tab is a perfect.

I used vibor a few months ago and hated the call quality, lag was terrible when calling overseas. I haven't tried Tango overseas yet, but asked clients to install to test. I've heard Whatsapp was really good, but not available for my Tab2. Right now I'm sticking with Skype as we paid for a 1 year subscription.
I just got mine today and am as well looking for a way to root surprise they havent added a forum for the SGH-T779
The only bright spot is the hardware is very similar to the US SGS3 with a Qualcomm S4 but with 1G of RAM.
Got mine today,
Black Friday freebie! hopefully a root solution will come out soon!
This is the second RMA I'm about to start. The first one ended with a device affected by dot pixels. I sent it back 10 minutes after I received the package. Now I'm about to ask for a new RMA. Will I receive a device with the most recent hardware revision (larger holes of speaker, more solid buttons)?? I asked google support and they answered that They were not able to answer
Thanks all folks

Someone really has to make a sticky for this. All these "variations" that people are talking about are just manufacturing tolerances. NOT new hardware revisions. The Nexus 4 had hw rev 10, 11, and 12.

It doesn't matter though. People will find a way to argue it both sides. Oh well.
OP: It really doesn't matter what "revision" you get. As long as everything works, just be happy, or wait until there actually is a new revision to RMA.

Nope... some just have bigger ones and some have smaller ones. As I said, manufacturing tolerances.
I've said it before and I'll say it again. There is only one hardware revision. The variances are due to units from different assembly lines. If you exchange a new device, your replacement will be a new device. If you exchange a used unit, you'll most likely get a reconditioned device.

Half right. You will get a new device whether or not you send in a new or used device. That is if you bought it from the play store of course.

You'll get what ever is in inventory at the time. Why do people ask questions that no one here can answer?
Why do they get it and we don't? This is so frustrating.
Nor does the S5... Or the Z2... Or the Find 7...
I think the question we should be asking is why did every other manufacturer decline the functionality?
My guess is that it either isn't too great with battery or the keyword HAS to be "Hello Snapdragon" which didn't fly with them.

You're right! I wasn't aware the GS5 had that. Indeed they're most likely using the chipset feature.
But this raises another question, why didn't one plus customize their keyword? "Hello Snapdragon" is kind of a mouthful. I guess it doesn't really matter.
I can't help but wonder if this functionality can be hacked in. I'd think it would be easier on a AOSP based ROM.

The core is low power in order to transmit that information it would need to cause a wake lock which could easily be blocked. I would be more concerned with backdoors that are in the closed source radio blobs
