Ding ding ding ding ding !
You're the 136,794,308th person to ask this inane question on XDA. Accordingly, Samsung have advised there will now be no official ICS firmware released for the SGS2, ever. Nor will there be any source code whatsoever released (which means CM9 won't be progressing from its current alpha build status, also ever).
Are you happy now ?
Also, you made the Baby Jebus cry.

[Q] A statement, a request and a question

I have bought my u20i about a month ago because I thought I wouldn't have to wait long for the android update... and now look...
SE HAVE DELAYED 2.1 FOR A MONTH, I AM RAGING
Which brings me onto my request, can someone please get in touch with a developer to attempt to crack the bootloader and give us 2.2 (because i'm sure SE will never unlock it for us, thats for sure).
and the final thing is my question, i have noticed that roadsync keeps loading itself up every 5 seconds after I kill the task. Is there a way i could stop this? (yes I know I could remove the app as I have root but I have heard that it can cause pc companion not to download updates - stupid SE)
so yeah any help out there?

Already people working on it, it's not exactly a trivial exercise, just hope SE left a nice gaping hole somewhere, else it may take a very long time.

Updates should be fine, I've moved forward on very stripped firmware multiple times and you can always make a backup. There seems to be an issue going back in revisions via pc companion, though I don't suspect it's related to roadsync.

Thanks for the answer I don't know why I hadn't thought of making a back up of it anyway. I will get onto it now. thanks again

I updated phone without problems. Only little problem was with my language - czech, after update doesnt work phone in settings, after setting phone language in english was everything OK
Nothing yet in Spain :S
If anyone is on an AT&T phone and installs this let us know if tethering works or not.
It would be nice if it's there in this update.
nothing here too in Saudi Arabia both in my HD7 t-mobile brand & HTC Titan UK...
Hello,
I think this update will start to be released next week (for all equipments)
Maybe HTC launches a new firmware update with this new build too.
Thanks,
Santos
I think this is just an HTC update. My OS version is still 7.10.7740.16.
@Rickgig, tethering worked before this update. You just have to pay for it.

The OS version on my AT&T HTC Titan is 77.10.7720.68 Your manual update seems like it pretty easy to do I was wondering if I wanted to try this then roll back how would I do that since your file don't have the version my phone has?
Also, do you happen to know if this new version or any newer version takes care of the random power cycling/reboot that occurs like 1 or 2 times every 12-18 hours? My phone seems a little better now that I uninstalled the HTC apps (except for the HTC version of Tango video chat software since that is made for the Titan) hope that these updates take care of that too.

Hey guys,
Just updating you all on this if you haven't already read the Windows phone blog today.
They have mentioned in their blog that this update and the future 'maintenance updates' will fix more than the change log just to maintain any issues raised by the carriers. However, these maintenance updates will only be released to carriers that ask for it. So if your carrier did not ask for this maintenance update or anything else in future you won't get these kind of small maintenance updates. I am going to manually update my phone today as mine is SIM free and my carrier will never get me any maintenance updates.
I will post back if I see anything noticably different. I would however recommend that if you feel confident, then go for manual update as your carrier might or might not have asked Microsoft for the update. The reason I understand is these maintenance updates once applied require your carrier to put their crap back on your phone. Some carriers happily will do it and others will take long time to re-do their crap on the phone, which means you get update later than the world. I do appreciate MS's approach regarding maintenance update, but it's a shame we have some lazy carriers supplying network to windows phone!
I am thinking of doing the manual update as well. Would you indeed be so kind to post the result? I am curious!

Update for 7/21/12
Hi all
I bought the S3 last week and now it has given me the option to do a software update this morning. Does anyone know what this software update is? Is it going to remove any functions such as Google Search?
I'm postponing this update until I get more information.
Thanks

update z3v

Hi; is there an update for z3v with build N° 23.1.D.0.239 ?
i cant find it in xperifirm !!
Latest firmware for Z3v in xperifirm is 23.0.E.1.44 / R19B
Do you have the most recent Xperifirm?
This is also the latest firmware that VZW will send if you check for software updates.
yes my device shows 23.0.E.1.44 / R19B . and in right side in the same line S/O !
and it tells me that if it is S/O; i should use the software updater for the latest update so i did but i get the message error during DM session

What blows my mind is how he got that info. It really makes it interesting that he found it through Apple hardware through Sony software. Hopefully that sort of made sense.

Exactly this. Nowhere else on the internet has the update version number as precise as that. Download it, share it on here, you're making headlines everywhere. Xperiablog, GSMArena, Android Authority, etc.
Trying to see if I can access it.
However, the dang Sony Bridge application will not recognize my Z3v being plugged in

The TC is quite mysterious. He doesn't directly respond to sharing other information about it.
What I do guess is trying to reinstall the program based in a different region. Try somewhere in Europe or northern Europe. Wherever it seems that Lollipop was first released and see if the phone would get recognized there. Or even try to mimic the settings from the picture posted somehow.
I loaded this on my Macbook.
It would not recognize my Z3V either.

I set my vpn in france & london. Neither yielded a different file. I guess the program just goes off of system language (hence the French in the OP's followup)
Well I'll be damned how Verizon could just hold onto it to put bloat in it.
I updated my recently bought tablet to Lollipop. I wanted to root it before I do it, but it was some hell of a trouble for me to get root because instructions were all over the place. I gave up on it halfway, go back to Kit Kat, then flashed the official Lollipop firmware. I have to say, it feels just as smooth if not better, and the whole Material design looks dazzling. Once it's going for the Z3v, I'm pretty sure it's definitely worth it despite all that's said from experience on the Galaxy S5.
One thing I do hope they add is a Clear All button for the Recents menu. It'd be convenient, but definitely a lot more convenient on the tablet because of the bigger touchscreen area.
A Tech guy I spoke to 2 days ago (during a service call) informed me that the Z3v voLTE update is scheduled for the end of the month!
I assume that would be included in the Lollipop update?!?

Oh gawd I hope that's true.
Sad to say, but I don't believe a word regarding updates (much less anything else) a Verizon rep or tech says to me anymore. I guess that makes me a bitter old man. lol

SO.. Where is the kdz or tot for the H820?

Well, after months of exhaustive searching and trawling the deep dark corners of the internet, i can finally say: THERE IS NO FRICKING FIRMWARE FOR THIS PHONE!
Ok, venting done. The AT&T variant really does seem to not have any firmware available anywhere. I would like to throw this little request out there. If anyone has a line on the firmware, please please please share. It would save crap-ton of us with borked or messed up phones out there.
Thanks!
AT&T Has not released the firmware and probably won't for another year or so they are very stingy with firmware because they don't make money on repairs if someone can just fix their problem with flashing the firmware themselves

And for this very reason AT&T are A55#0L35... We probably won't get Nougat until the G6 is here or worse - we'll just be left out cold altogether like they did us with the Optimus G (didn't get KitKat, everyone else did).
Perhaps soon we should leave AT&T out of our wallets.
I thought legally they had to make it available

Ah don't worry. Already tried it. Don't. Your phone will be stuck in download mode. I have and that's the state i ended up in. Does not really matter since the phone is already borked.
AT&T can go suck on a hairy donkey knee. What sort of stupidity leads to decisions like these??? After the debacle that was my V10 from at&t, i am never buying another phone that came from them... Excepting the Nexus phones. No point whatsover
