Ics update question - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

Do you guys think we will be getting ths voice and eye recognition feature like ths Galaxy SIII? Will we also get the Svoice or will all those only available for the SIII?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA

We already have a voice recognition app on the note but who cares because it is terrible at hearing what your actually saying. The eye recognition app we will not be getting and again who cares because it's just another thing to take precious battery power which is already sparse on phones today. Just wish they could release the damn ICS update already. - KID ANDROID.

The sgs+ (I9001) got a value pack including the face unlock
search for a value pack for your device if it wont get a ics update

Didn't AT&T and Samsung say we (the i717 users) would be getting ICS in Q2 of 2012? That's 16 days away from being over and I haven't heard anything on the update actually occurring. Anyone else?
Thank God for ROMs and the development community.

Dont know but as u said just wait =)

He is not talking about facial recognition to unlock, he is talking about how you can set the S3 screen to turn off when your not looking at it and turn on when you look at it.

I do not think either promised us anything. It was just a rumor that someone who claimed they knew someone at AT&T said, but it started with the rumor that the update was coming two weeks after the Note was released then by the end of Q1 and so on. Its just a rumor, why can't people just figure out that nobody knows when ICS will be released and all they have to do is wait.

That's right they did seh that I'm soo tired of these delays uno it very aggregating, by the time ics come to the note there might be on the two more os haha

They might as well skip ICS since we already have all this and jump straight to Jelly Bean lol

Skyrocket gets 2.3.6, why GS2 still on 2.3.4?

Ok makes me wonder how much love'n our GS2's are going to get as far as updates?
The Skyrocket came out with 2.3.5 and just got 2.3.6, and we are still on 2.3.4. Also the Euro version of the GS2 are always being updated and I think there are 2.3.6 builds out for it.
I'm confident that we wil get ICS next year, but it would be nice to get the latest Gingerbread while we are waiting.
I know a lot of people on here flash custom ROMs, but there are also many people like me who don't flash ROMs and find the stock ROM just fine.
Makes me wonder if it is AT&T again holding up updates or Samsung.

Besides, we have our 2.3.6 official ROM leak for a while now. What matters is who gonna get ICS first, leaks or official.

Well obviously something is different being as it's 2 newer version numbers.
Of course I'm not sure what that is. But it is nice to be up to date on things.
correct me if I'm wrong but just because one phone has two revisions "newer" than another phone doesnt mean its better. It just means it had more bugs to fix.

Sounds right. This is just a bugfix with the updated OS. Samsung knows the Skyrocket doesn't get as much love from the community either, so they have to fill in the gaps.
Not every Android OS updates are better than older version. 2.3.5 broke something (Voice search IIRC) and 2.3.6 is released to fix it.
Besides, the real reason AT&T/Samsung rush 2.3.6 updates for Skyrocket is because there is a wide spread internet connection issue with Skyrockets on non-LTE areas.

I am pretty sure you are exactly correct. I've read that the 2.3.6 was rushed into production on the Skyrocket to address some major bugs in the original release. Apparently there were a bunch of problems with Google Voice integration and the Android voice search feature, both of which work fine on our phones.
Most likely just because that new bug with powervr and privileges escalation they got the update to patch that.
We don't have the same hardware as skyrocket to we aren't affected therefore no patch for us.

Believe it or not, the 2.3.5 or 2.3.6 was updated by Samsung to tie into the whole APPLE vs/ Samsung legal lawsuit overseas... Apple won the suit and Samsung had to CHANGE touchwiz to avoid patent infringement on Apple's intellectual property. It was either SIDE or VERITCAL scrolling that had to get nerfed... Be thankful we didn't get hit with it yet...
Other than the SCROLL change, I don't think there is a MAJOR change from 2.3.4 on GS2 vs. 2.3.5/2.3.6 on Skyrocket...!

Wrong. The skyrockets was only release in north America, lawsuit doesn't affect us osgs2 or skyrocket. The data Issue was fix by at&t a week ago no software needed. There is an update from 2.3.5- 2.3.6 notice nothing new there but the phone feels smoother to me. At&t update priority is more on the skyrocket. Not that ya need it anyways. also as of today the vivid and the skyrocket are the only at&t phones officially getting ICS. You guys might never get an official ICS update.

A long time ago, Samsung promised to release an additional update wih more S-Pen software and better functionality. I dont remember when, but it was at least a few weeks ago. Search aound and youll find it. Angry Birds space isnt an update. Its a completely new game. Just like Rovio does whenever it has a new theme...Rio...Seasons...you get the idea. So unless the Korean translations were crap (Sammy is known for their terrifying translations...remember the galaxy tab site?) this means that there will be a software update (either a ROM or a update for the S-Memo type apps) and a new "suite" of apps that we'll get from the Samsung app store that'll include a note specific version of Angry Birds space with a free bonus episode and(that others will have to purchase via in app purchasing), and a note-only bonus level.
In short...Samsung never once mentioned anything along the lines of a "value pack"...in fact, on the contrary. This is speak of a galactic update.
Not to mention the fact that there are already official ICS ROM leaks...and Samsung has announced the update already for couple countries.
If you had read the article and checked the source,you'd know that there is actually 0 evidence of this.
Weird logical leap. Note will get ICS.
They're skipping ICS and going to blow everyone away with JellyBean. Right?
It would be stupid for them to not release ICS for the note or the galaxy S II phones all these phones have great specs for running ICS. Besides if they don't release it there will be many roms available
Canadian carriers clearly show ICS available 2012 would really suck if they lie.

Sigh. =/ can you update us?
I don't have good news but I can share what the experience was for us Samsung Infuse 4g users.
We all started with Froyo and the promise of a Ginger Bread update. Here we are many months later still on Froyo. There was an official Update to Ginger Bread in the beginning of February that was promptly pulled because of all the issues it had.
When I saw that the note was supposed to be released with Ginger Bread with the promise of an ICS update ... I was stunned at the similarity of what Samsung was doing. I am almost certain we even got an Angry Birds update somewhere in August... yet we still to this date have Froyo.
With this in mind and the Fact that Samsung isnt being a speedy updater.. I would suggest moving forward and making the most of what you have right now.
I hope they release your ICS soon but the fact that there are leaks means nothing...we have had Ginger Bread leaks since october last year. Thus it is no indication of an official release. It is more like small teases to keep us on the string.
On the bright side we have had several great devs over at the Infuse 4g forums that made our lives a little easier. Taking the GB leaks and developing ROMs. Most of the ROMs were great and were indeed GB based ROMs. There were a couple of issues however. No Bluetooth and HDMI support as the kernels the devs had to work with didn't support them for some reason. I am sure they explained it a million times.. LOL.
Dman ... who developed several great ROMs and a few ports.. was amazing. I heard he now had a gnote. So cross your fingers that he will be doing some great work here as well.
To sum up...
Don't get in a hurry for an Update to ICS. Don't believe what Samsung or ATT says about Samsung updates PERIOD.
Myself....I will be holding out for the note until I see an official ICS.

This is why I have ALWAYS been so shy about going to a Samsung phone.
Good thing is, if something with similar hardware releases with ICS, we'll have the drivers we need and we can just Root and jump on the ROM train.
That's why I decided on Samsung this time around.

Cool we have confirmation of ics!
For US phones, basically unless you get one of the Nexus phones, you should never expect to get any timely OTA updates. It's still mostly the US phone carriers to blame more so than the phone vendors themselves. Like I'm sure Samsung isn't actually intentionally delaying ICS forever on purpose.
it is coming in may

ICS delayed told Q2!!

Read this on a couple of tech sites. Very disappointed. I was under the impression that the wait for ICS wasn't gonna be that long. That was a big factor in getting the note. Would have held out for a quad core with ICS already on it if I knew it was gonna be this long. I love my note and it's sad that att's flagship android device doesn't have the latest version of android. Plus I think ics will smooth out alot of the lagginess owners have been reporting.

ICS wasn't coming until at least Q2 for the AT&T Note anyways. In fact, your ICS might be right on schedule.
The funny part is that this is for the International version. Meaning that we'll get ICS months after that

^^This guys got a point. I will defend ICS tooth and nail, but you will rarely find me belly aching about it being on the note. I absolutely want it, but I didn't buy a phone with it already on it. I do expect ATT/Samsung to deliver it to us, but don't think we'll see it untill fall. Anything sooner will be a great surprise, anything later and I'll start complaining. If all I wanted was ICS then I would have kept my Vibrant.
Time to DIY
I saw that this morning and welp... time to flash a custom ROM -_-
I was holding off waiting for the official to get here 'later this month'. I am disappoint. Oh well... Its not hard to root anyway.
Waiting for the next o.s. update for your smartphone is a never ending game and hasn't changed.
It's not real smart to buy something HOPING it will get the next update sooner rather than later. WIth smartphones, you'll always be disappointed .
I'm running ICS on another device I have and it's not that big of a deal. I'd certainly like it on my Note but it's not something I'm waiting for with every breath.
totally untrusted source. there is no samsung norway official page+samsung norway does not speak english!! anyways the youtube video interview, that samsung executive guy who was answering questions, where it says comments, it was written that the att note will be getting the update in may
doesn't Q2 start in like 2 weeks?
So tired of the *****ing and crying over ics go and take your note back and get the nexus if you want ics so bad I'm am completely happy with my note

Wow am I getting tired of reading these same press releases OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER...
Yea, we get it, ICS is coming out for the Note in the coming months.
Given Samsungs track record, it isnt going to happen anytime soon.
Given ATT's track record, it REALLY isnt going to happen any time soon.
What the hell does 'coming soon' mean?
Talk to any Captivate owner if you want to get an idea here. There were press releases and blaring horns about Gingerbread is coming soon for the Captivate and guess what? The Captivate just got Gingerbread 2 months ago, and ATT couldnt even be bothered to push it OTA, it has to be installed via a PC. Oh yea, tons of press releases about an imminent release of GB for the Captivate too. Shame it took a year to get anything out.
While I understand newer people that are not familiar with how Samsung works might very well be getting excited about this and feel the need to post every link they can find about some rumour and speculation (of an ICS release) or YET ANOTHER press release stating the exact same thing the 50 press releases released before have stated but trust me when I tell you, all of this is alot of empty fanfare.
The international version will get ICS soon (probably 2 months (my guess June) until they BEGIN to start rollouts starting with Korea and ENDING with the United States and finally Mexico probably late this year around Christmas time at the earliest).
So let me spell it out for you, it isnt going to happen very quickly and I really wish people would stop posting these links. There are fifty billion threads on just the ATT Note forums alone about how ICS will be coming soon with no details beyond 'its coming soon', 'yay for more apps that use the SPen', and 'hey, its ICS'.
*sigh*
Given ATT's track record, it REALLY isnt going to happen any time soon
Why is everyone hating on ATT for this? I mean I can hate on them for about everything else. Are they not the ONLY one to release an ICS update so far for a non Nexus phone?
They released it for the HTC Vivid. Has any other carrier released an ICS update for a non ICS original phone? I'm currious...

I think people are not exactly comparing apples to apples here. Comparing the note to the captivate is pretty stupid. Att is pretty well vested in android now where as they were not before the captivate. By the time they announced gb for it, there were much better phones out. With att announcing ics for the note now and not having anything else as a flagship device I can see them working a bit faster than the captivate. Also, att released ics for the vivid before the vivids counterparts from other countries. I'm sick of people acting like they're fortune tellers because they used to own a ****ty phone that didn't get updated because there were better phones out. Oh and I own a craptivate myself

I don't really care about the time frame. It's enough just to know it is being worked on. I am more interested in seeing how Google is going to kill fragmentation which ICS was supposed to do. People still have phones/tablets that will never see the update.

Wow am I getting tired of reading these same press releases OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER...
Yea, we get it, ICS is coming out for the Note in the coming months.
Given Samsungs track record, it isnt going to happen anytime soon.
Given ATT's track record, it REALLY isnt going to happen any time soon.
What the hell does 'coming soon' mean?
Talk to any Captivate owner if you want to get an idea here. There were press releases and blaring horns about Gingerbread is coming soon for the Captivate and guess what? The Captivate just got Gingerbread 2 months ago, and ATT couldnt even be bothered to push it OTA, it has to be installed via a PC. Oh yea, tons of press releases about an imminent release of GB for the Captivate too. Shame it took a year to get anything out.
While I understand newer people that are not familiar with how Samsung works might very well be getting excited about this and feel the need to post every link they can find about some rumour and speculation (of an ICS release) or YET ANOTHER press release stating the exact same thing the 50 press releases released before have stated but trust me when I tell you, all of this is alot of empty fanfare.
The international version will get ICS soon (probably 2 months (my guess June) until they BEGIN to start rollouts starting with Korea and ENDING with the United States and finally Mexico probably late this year around Christmas time at the earliest).
So let me spell it out for you, it isnt going to happen very quickly and I really wish people would stop posting these links. There are fifty billion threads on just the ATT Note forums alone about how ICS will be coming soon with no details beyond 'its coming soon', 'yay for more apps that use the SPen', and 'hey, its ICS'.
*sigh*

Why is everyone hating on ATT for this? I mean I can hate on them for about everything else. Are they not the ONLY one to release an ICS update so far for a non Nexus phone?
They released it for the HTC Vivid. Has any other carrier released an ICS update for a non ICS original phone? I'm currious...

When to expect JB ROMS?

When will JB ROMS be coming to the samsung vibrant, i know that there is already some work for the g-nexus but nothing about the sgs models. Does anybody know when?
I'm assuming soon after Google releases the code for it.
android 4.1
I hope sooner rather then later
When it gets to devices such as the Nexus S, I9000, or basically any Galaxy S family device (first gen)
IT has the potential to run on the Vibrant.
I am also hearing that the Nexus S is getting an official google update, so if that is true, we will get it for sure.

That's what i was thinking as well. I love that our old phones manage to stay on the bleeding edge.

The NOTE will get it for sure, no doubt about that, it just won't be through Samsung as they will want to put Touchwiz on top of it, which will take about 1 year, and by then the new version KAKA will be released.
haha
There is already an alpha version that was released

Looks like Google just released the JB code into AOSP..
Roms will happen when they happen If I were to take a wild guess, I would say in the in the future sometime.
Patience! Count your blessings that we have awesome devs that gave us ICS!

^ Ha, very punny sir... Very punny indeed.
Yes, and we should really encourage them by donating anything for their cause. They're not really getting paid to do this, but they are doing it anyway. I recently just donated $5 to a dev that has helped me through a couple of problems, may not seem much but a little can go a long way
I can't wait to see what all these developers and going to create now that the source code is out. It will be a while with some dev teams starting from scratch but it will be worth the wait.
