Just be patient. I am sure it will come out soon. And when the first person gets it, they will post the OTA on XDA so you can get it ASAP and before you get the OTA yourself. How the update for my GNEX 4.0.4 went as well as the ICS update for my ASUS Transformer. Someone posted the OTA online and I didnt have to wait for the OTA to come thru on my devices.

You don't think that Samsung will ever actually release ICS for it...do you? Oh please....GS3 is being released soon. For them GS2 is yesterday's POS and they could care less about it at this point.

What the hell are you talking about? They will release it. You think they would let this phone not receive ICS? That would be poor customer support and drive people away from Samsung products as you couldn't trust/rely on them to deliver any updates for their phones. You really don't know how the business works, do you? Plus, the SGS2 is a popular phone, and will have good support at xda.

Obviously, you dont know what you are talking about. SGSII got phone of the year last year and I doubt Samsung will ditch it. And the SGSII is a CURRENT phone and not old news. And the rumors about the SGSIII being released next month are just that...RUMORS. Until Samsung officially announces the SGSIII, no telling if it will be soon or at the end of the year.

Yup, I've tested quite a few. All unstable for now.

Never heard that.

Some random on Twitter said it was coming out on 1st March and all the tech sites picked it up for some reason..

Q1 2012 is the official word from Samsung so they've got almost a month yet to keep to their word :)

If they COULD care less, that means they must care about it.. I think you mean "couldn't care less"

Sorry, one of my bugbears ;)

Too bad none of you actually live near me....cause I'd love to make a wager on this. I'd bet big money on Samsung never actually releasing ICS for the GS2.

So the official statements from Samsung saying the SGSII will come out Q1 2012 is just a bunch of lies by Samsung? Would be dumb of them to release a statement like that and not follow thru with it. its not the the G1 which cannot handle TW and ICS. The SGSII can fully handle it and it will get it.

I have been using Thebyani Rom V3.2 for SGS2 ICS Rom for past week. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1482574. Only issue I had was that Chrome beta just crashes constantly. So used the stock browser that came with the ROM.

Post your address, and I'll swing by to collect. I'll drop a grand saying Samsung releases it to phone providers within the next 25 days.

It's also too bad, you have no clue where we all live.

    • Microsoft raises Xbox console prices by up to $150, discontinues 2TB version

      Prices for consumer electronic stink and will continue to stink for quite some time. If you're at all hesitant, just buy now because it's not getting better. (or buy used and save even more cash)
    • Microsoft raises Xbox console prices by up to $150, discontinues 2TB version

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Microsoft raises Xbox console prices by up to $150, discontinues 2TB version by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Back in March, Sony increased PlayStation 5 prices, and now, it's Microsoft's turn. Today, the company announced a major price increase that will affect all of its Xbox consoles, and one storage option is being discontinued entirely. There is some time before the new prices go into effect. Starting on August 1, 2026, any Xbox Series X|S model with 512GB of storage will cost $100 more than now. The price of 1TB models will go up by $150 instead. At the same time, all 2TB models are being discontinued. "The entire consumer electronics industry is struggling with the current components crisis, but the effects are particularly hard on consoles," said the company. "Unlike phones, computers, speakers, and other consumer devices, consoles are typically not sold at a profit, but instead for less than they cost to make." As the hikes hit, Microsoft is beginning to offer more options to make its consoles more accessible to potential customers, including financing, buy now, pay later schemes, and refurbished options: Buy Now, Pay Later: We’ve made it easier for players to use Buy Now, Pay Later options on eligible XBOX hardware purchases through Microsoft Stores, making it possible to break up your payment into predictable short-term, interest-free installments. Interest-Free Financing: Players purchasing eligible XBOX hardware through Amazon can take advantage of 0% APR financing for up to 12 months, giving players more flexibility with lower monthly payments and more budgeting control. Previously Played Consoles: We are working with retail partners on new programs to provide previously played consoles at lower prices. Players who are ready to upgrade or no longer use their console will be able to trade it in with participating retail partners for cash or store credit. Those consoles will then be made available at lower prices for players. Certified Refurbished Consoles: XBOX Certified Refurbished Consoles are available at Microsoft Stores for up to US$100 off MSRP. Microsoft said that the rising cost of storage and memory prices is behind this decision, with costs going up by over 2.5 times since the last time it raised prices of its consoles. The company says these parts are expected to double in price by the fall of 2027.
