I created this for anyone who has started to get ICS updates to post any screenshots. I can't wait for at&t update and look forward to seeing what it will look like.

*Gulp*
Have they released an official date for our notes to start receiving OTA upgrades to ICS?

For once, I can actually be happy for my Canadian friends up north, for it seems that they always get the short end of the stick. I don't know how they Bear it... being left out in the Cold and all, plus some of 'em just so happen to have inherited the second worst think from the French, their language!
Seriously, I'm happy for y'all.
And this can only bode well for the U.S. as well, as it means that were mighty close...and they get to Beta test!!! On another high note, the Rogers ROM seemed to be much better than the ATT ROM was. So our off shoots might start off better.

Everyone knows Samsung is made in Samdiego, Ca.
That' why we should get it first.
It's not any colder up here than down in the US! Buffalo gets more snow than Toronto most of the time!
Just checked the software updates icon on my i717 (on Rogers), no update yet.

Yeah, only Quebec speaks French. Yet our idiotic government forces it to be in our national anthem, all over our packaging, and most government phone lines you use. It is ridiculous. I cannot stand French as much as Al Bundy, and I assure you that almost all of our non Quebec population feels the same.
so nobody in canada got it? guess this was another ruse
So did anyone else get the Sprint message about getting their Photon to run faster, which suggested clearing the browser cache? - Bigger question is did anyone else notice that the Photon in the picture was running either ICS or JB!? It was, complete with the new rounded click/weather widgets and five icons along the bottom of the screen. Now if they'd only distribute and release the source, it would make the devs jobs easier, having ICS/JB drivers.

Wow I read the first post and got all excited. O well time to keep waiting for ics
Well [email protected]! - I read the message and at a quick gander the very subtle differences don't stand out. Of course there's no reason the think those dip-sticks would use the picture of the wrong phone. I was all excited seeing the ICS/JB OS too.
Fingers crossed that new parent Google slaps some sense into Motorola and unlocks the boot loader and releases ICS or JB soon with source code. You know the expression about the chances being slim to none, well slim is on life support I guess.

Yes that is the question. We know they said Q4 but hopefully it will be early in Q4 and not the end of Q4.

And is there anything whatsoever in your experience that would conceivably lead you to expect them to be as early as possible rather than as late as possible?
That, of course, leaves aside the question of whether there's anything in your experience that would lead you to expect them to honor this claim in the first place.
Ah ! Moto at it again. With Photon Q LTE out with JB, it is unlikely that we will now get an update to either ICS or JB, even though Google 'promised' to keep hardware refreshed for 18 months. We will most likely be extended an olive branch of $100 credit towards another 'Moto Phone' ... really Moto ?
This is my last Moto phone and likely last Android as well. I am ready to convert to Lumia 920.

Technically the 18 months is not over yet. It has only been close to 14 months since the release of the Photon 4G so Motorola could pull something out of its hat and possibly give us a JB update in early January 2013. All these hints about offering $100 for a future Moto device for any 2011 devices that don't receive the ICS upgrade is pretty telling to me.
With all the of 4.2 coming out where is the 1.29 update?
I just want the battery enhancement ans camera upgrade.
Anyone with some insider info can give us a glimmer of hope?

Indeed 4.1.2 and 1.27.531.7 is what we are stuck with....
Just called T-Mobile and the woman saw nothing about the updates in their system...
She said if you can download the update and apply it from HTC's website that would work, but rooting and using different software would break the warranty.

The rep would not know anything except an update currently in the pipeline, that is, already heading our way. Only someone at Tmo corporate headquarters would know the strategic deployment strategy, and they do not talk. TMO tends to release updates later than other companies.
t-mobile tends to release updates not at all...
a few years ago my smartphone was updated for all carriers except t-mobile. everyone went up an android version while I did not.
who cares how much difference it makes... t-mobile is clearly lazier about updating than other companies and need a push to do so.

Well, for my Amaze 4G, they released the upgrade to ICS after about 5 months. And then very recently they did another upgrade, which would be almost a year later. But that first major update wasn't that late.
The way I look at it, if you're using these forums, you shouldn't have to wait for carrier updates. HTC did announce that an update is in the works.

First public WP7.8 for Lumia here at xda appeared on May 15th, 2012. And this 7.8 (as a system part) was the official MS Canonical update. So you were pretty fast with your care centre .
I was browsing xda and ran across quite a few devices that have ubuntu touch os in development/working on their devices! I forgot how gorgeous it looked when the developer preview came out, I was truly looking forward to a working daily driver, back when I have the vzw Samsung galaxy S3. Never happend... I was wondering, does anyone plan on working inv something like this? Is there something for the G3 already? (I Google searched, xda searched, to no avail) I would love to see this on our device! We have a big community and I know people would jump on board to get this on there phones.
Id love to see that as well! Hopefully someone pick it up!

Verizon (and others) and Samsung are hurting themselves by locking down the device hard which is killing developer interest so I seriously doubt it. And the developer version is unsubsidized and hard to find.
Same thing as the S3. Once Verizon locked it developers started to drop like flys...
Man I was waiting for Ubuntu Touch for forever... being a huge fan of Ubuntu I was super excited it was being ported to android devices! Wasn't it supposed to be officially released like a year ago... alongside Ubuntu 14.04?
Lol I totally forgot I started this thread... Glad to see more people agree, but yeah ubuntu on the G3 is very doubtful with a locked boot loader :'(
