They should already release it but there are some problems with TouchWiz... I'm thinking we just have to wait about one month more.

Some say sat. Sammobile has said a flagship is getting it in 48hrs S3 leak is already out so mite be s2:thumbup:

So we must wait. I believe that it will be soon.

SGS II will recieve official ICS.
Samsung will give official updates do SGSII up to 18 months from the phone release date.
So yes, we get the official samsung ICS
Samsung are signed up to the Google update path .
All compatible products receive updates for at least 18 months from first build date .
jje
really?
dunno that...
but i think it's gonna be a big time to wait...until Sammy releases to SGS2
Maybe it will take a while for the US versions of the SGS2 to get updates (blame the networks for that), but the Euro version should get it reasonably soon.
CM9 for those who don't want to wait for an official Samsung TW rom, just be patient though teamhacksung will do their magic.

I for one am more excited for the Samsung ics than cyanogenmod. I've used cm6 and 7 across around 5 devices but I think Samsung got it 99% right with the gs2!

that's nice...
it's almost unbelievable, when a new OS is released...
then ppl port it fastest to Nexus, and Nexus S devices...
i hope Cyanogen could really make a SGS2 version fastest too!!
and that ICS could fix AOS bug forever!!
I'm currently using CM7 on my GS2. This is the fastest rom ever. Definitely will go to CM9 by the time it's released already.

They'll do it.

SGS2 to get ICS Jan 2012?

Take this with a pinch of salt as it's far from official but:
Gaurav Hasabnis, an industry analyst and contributing editor of Fonearena.com posted on Twitter: “Something gonna come in Jan 2012. #sgs2 users gonna rejoice!”, followed by a second tweet: “Soon Mali400 gonna be in full use.”
The mentioned Mali 400 is the name of the GPU on the Samsung Galaxy S II. Rumors states Ice Cream Sandwich will utilize the the full potential of high-end smartphones better than previous Android OS, which leads us to believe that the ICS will be making its way to the Galaxy S2.

Thank you for the heads up. Hope GS2 will not take a long time to upgrade like the Samsung did for Galaxy S.
seems to match up with this
http://www.lifeofandroid.com/news_detail/ice-cream-sandwich-to-debut-on-android-handsets-in-weeks/
The worldwide release of Android 4.0 will begin in time for Christmas with Google’s Nexus S smartphone meaning the new OS should be broadly available for all compatible handsets by early 2012.

Hope this is true and not a rumors........waiting
They hvn't even released the 2.3.4 update in India.Jan 2012 s too early a date for us i guess .

If they won't release it officially, I'm sure we'll get a custom rom with 4.0 running as soon as the Galaxy Nexus is launched But good news, anyway!
Just think. If it's January 'officially,' then it could be December (or earlier) for us!
That's a great news. Though I think we'll get ICS unofficially before that. Anyone?

Wow this is great news. Now android is a step closer to WP7 and iOS in handling resources. +1 HW acceleration
Even if we are not getting the official update, i am sure xda developers will cook one for us.

Didn't Samsung drop development of 2.3.4 as they started 2.3.5
I still haven't got any official updates from 2.3.3 on a SIM free handset here in the UK.
Samsung UK have also tweeted that there is no time frame for getting ICS on the SGSII (read in to that what you want)
Think custom roms will be the only way forwards on ICS for some time.
Well that announcement is about Official release, NOT unofficial one. 70% users use Official ROM and like them, existing use this and that. Without a Stock ROM there won't be any Custom ROMs? Would there be?
Count me in those 70%.
We'll sure have some custom rom runnig ICS before the official one but I wonder what they'll do about touchwizz...
Looking forward to it

thank you for your quick reply that great news
i love my galaxy s2.
S2 is one of top high end smartphones in the world, offcourse it will get ICS. If you read any threads, you would probably see that if rumours are true, we should see ICS for ~10 days or something. In Israel, I think it's coming 15.3. or something like that

SGS3 Android Update?

I read somewhere on internet that some updates will come on SGS3 sgs2 and galaxy note and something about jellybean.
today my galaxy note had an software update but no jellybean!
what do you know about those update that are coming

There is a thread in the general section. This isn't the right place for questions like yours.
We know as much as you, it's on the way.
If you are bored play around with custom roms, otherwise you will just have to be patient like the rest of us

I've read on several sites, that the JB will be rolled out by the end of this month or early september, the new rom is in his testing fase by Samsung.

[Q] SGS3 with jelly bean 4.2.1

when we will see 4.2.1 on SGS3 with touchwiz ?
Should be Q1 of this year... Hope before S4 comes out.
No-one knows for sure.
Don't ask questions in General
I'm not sure when but we can be certain we will get it. The one thing that really excites me is to see if the sgs3 can run android 4.3/5.0 officially or trough the dev way.. unfortunately we must all just wait and find out unless we have some paranormal devs around here
