Is it going to take a year or will we be blessed with ICS shortly after its release?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using xda premium
If it's anything like the Captivate, we'll get the update via Carrier after a long delay, but custom ROMs will have it not long after it appears for the international SGS2.
Go figure....lol

why ask when you know the answer - lol
Being that ICS hasn't even been released yet, means the manufacturers dont have the code to make it work on the phone. Which means we are probably 8-12 months away from seeing a "leaked" ICS.
Who knows. If the phone hardware is similar, we might get an early release of ICS based on the Nexus Prime version.
LOL your right but who knows ICS is designed for dual core hardware so we might get lucky lets just see.........

It'll take a long time. Because this phone is already 20 years old. Thanks to att

Haha. Seriously. Gotta love CM.
I was actually pretty happy running cognition, Unnamed, etc, but now I'm running CM7 because I know CM will serve up ice cream sandwich months before we see it from Samsung or elsewhere.

Haha, sounds like what we all said about GB since the Nexus S is so close to the Captivate (and Galaxy S).
when google releases jellybeans, ATT will release ice cream....
i hope its not jellybeans. I dont like jellybeans. lets call it 'jalapeno'
I really hope we'll get it relatively soon... but if not I'll just leave it too the custom ROM devs to get it to us xD

Looks like ICS is a 3 button lay out from what the video shows on the Galaxy Nexus.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using xda premium
(dates are approximate, based solely on my fuzzy memory)
If the history of the Captivate can be a guide:
AOSP Froyo was released in about July(?) of last year, I9000 Froyo and leaked versions of Froyo for Captivate started appearing around October, official AT&T UCKB1 Froyo dropped in late February. So, about 8 months for official Froyo.
AOSP GB was released in about Feb., Samsung I9000 custom ROMs appeared around May, and official AT&T Captivate GB still has not been released nor has any definite timeline even been announced. 2011 was all that was given in a press release a few months back, but 8 months would put it around Dec/Jan.
But the I777 AT&T SGS II deviates less from the international SGSII though, which *might* make it easier/simpler for Samsung and AT&T to shorten the development cycle. Captivate had stuff like the Audience chip that the international I9000 didn't, and omittted stuff like the front-facing camera, flash, and FM radio. SGSII also has less bloat that needs to be updated.
We'll just have to see how much faster the development cycle is, if it's improved at all.

This just makes me angry since they may show off the new features in June. That means it'll release in Q4 (when we're supposed to get ics! - my expectations) As the title states, take this with a grain of salt. Since this could be completely unreliable.
Bring on the update

Tbh, I feel the Nexus' are the way to go. They are Google's babies and they know how to take care of them well. But oh well, I shall stick with the S2 like I did with the S last year, each update following the knowledge that the next update was already out with better features.

My thoughts exactly, but touchwiz admittedly adds a lot to android and improves on stock in some ways. They could improve on aesthetics though...

[ROM_LEAK] AT&T Skyrocket ICS leaked (Same chipset as Note?) [DEVS ONLY] get it here
Not sure where to post this, but as it's ROM related with sources I'm hoping here is the best place.
ICS for Skyrocket ROM leaked, which has to be extremely close to the same code base for the Note's LTE QComm Snapdragon S3 chipset.
Is this something our ROM devs can use for a solid ICS foundation for our Note? If not please forgive my mistake, just trying to help out...
DL from my mirror here
Original source info http://rootzwiki.com/topic/21384-ics-leak-for-att-skyrocket-4g/
Yeah I was reading about this in the Skyrocket forum last night or this morning and was quite excited hopefully we can make something of it and i have no problem donating webspace/storage and money to help out devs.
Belongs in general but thanks for the link
Thanks let see of devs can make this work for the note

leak is cool . but we need kernel source if we intend to port their base to ours so it would be a kernel dev 's work ..
I m thining we ll have a leak soon .. if ics got leaked for skyrocket it certainly exists somewhere for the note .. just need to be patient
Just as well, AT&T released a list of phones that would receive the ICS update. The Note was on it as well as the Skyrocket. All of this bodes well, and further suggest what i was the first to say. We'll get ICS shortly after its released for the international note, the Angry Birds Space app would be a new app....not an update to an existing app like some suggested (this made absolutely no sense to me) and that the premium suite would be a host of s-pen apps and updates (i stated all of this before the video was even close to being released. Im on a roll!!

Maybe we'll get lucky and get a ics kernel source leak for the note soon, so DA_G can work his magic, not like I'm in a rush, I'm enjoying gingerbread but I do miss ICS.

I'm still running the stock rom (with DaG's Kernel and supercharger) and my experience has been pleasant. I havent the need to flash a rom yet, but that day is coming soon.. waiting for a better theme for the SolarisPrime to come out
These comments are the antithesis of Dev only^^
On topic: we won't be able to get it booting without a kernel as said previously. And without source out a hacked one would be a mangled **** show so for now we have to wait.
If your interested though gb skyrocket roms boot with one of our kernels. We still needs a new one but it would be something to work on till we get source or a leak
T-mobile galaxy s2 boots with the skyrocket kernel...anybody willing to softbrick to try it out?
I have on my my t989 and my galaxy note. I'm using the galaxy note as my daily driver, but the t989 has the leaked skyrocket rom on it, so there are some things missing. I don't want to rely on it if I bork my note and don't have time to fix it. My Gnex is at home too...otherwise I'd just do it and see how it goes!

Not running Saurom myself right now, but from a GB perspective, I could not agree more. What makes the device great is the device itself. To me, ICS is an A while GB is a B+ at absolute worst, so like you, I will gladly wait.

Don't be stupid, you know what he meant. Its a typo. Nobody is perfect including you.
To the OP, are you wanting to use a Gingerbread or ICS rom? If your interested in Gingerbread try SolarisPrime A New Hope. The rom is great!
ICS = HANDS DOWN UCLE2 BASE + FJ MOD by Flappjaxxx
But many others that have minor bugs... youll have to read up on each.
I rocked troposphere for quite a while... Kinda Like AOSP
I played with tablet mods on several other bases(which was cool and different) but I already have a tablet so didnt need another one lol
Im sure that you'll want to stay away from GB roms, because if you do go with GB you'll only find out at a later date that, when you flash ICS, you should have done it in the first place... Kind like having a choice to buy either a 1990 mustang or a 2012 mustang and choosing the 90's car. Then when it starts to smell old and feel slow, switching to the 2012... Money aside of course...
Welcome!
I am using the flappjaxxx rom mentioned above and I am over all pleased.
FJ pimped my pride

I'm so glad you love your NOTE
I even love this device also it replaces my laptop because I own ASUS G53SX damn this thing is so heavy to bring around
What I love about the note is 5.3 inch screen very high def qualify watching movies or TV on it at 1080P 60fps and very fun playing games on it as well when I'm out about too . Very light weight and it fit's in my jeans pocket just fine.
For 5.3 inch Phone + Tablet all in one device compared to Asus Prime which is 10 inch screen I prefer to have a device that's a phone and tablet so I don't have to bring 2 different devices around with me
The latest UCLE2 IMM76D 4.0.4 build is the most stable i've had so far. If you like the stock experience I'd say go with that ROM. Then ofcourse root it!
I'm on the stock official release that just came out. Nothing fancy for now.

you guys are great! I have to agree ics is great had a collective rom on my skyrocket and loved it. so i guess ill have to do some reading on how to get to ics on the note. it was pretty easy on the rocket. I've rooted already and will Odin cwm tonight then hit the dev section and get to it.

Guess we will just have to wait and see if a dev would like to port this over and bless us with some GN2 goodies. But its not a simple process. Its extremely time consuming and he dev would REALLY wanna take time out of their lives to do us this favor. Although, i gotta admit, im hoping to see this too.

Not looking good for the note 1 to get note 2 goodies! Note 2?
Sent from my SGH-I717 using xda premium
Port fron GN2 to GN1 is NOT going to happen anytime soon.
Where to begin. Even if they were porting the GN2 rom to the GN1, it would be the international GN1, NOT the US version, and the US version has completely different hardware, than the international one. ALL new Samsung phones are using all new hardware compared to the US GN1. There is no way those ROM's will make it over to our i717. the hardware is just too different. Because the US GN1 has LTE, they used the Qualcomm S3 SOC, and this was US only. The rest of the world used either the newer Qualcomm S4, or the Samsung SOC. The Note 2 uses Exynos (sp?) quadcore SOC radically different than our Note 1's.
You can forget about any Note 2 ports to the Note 1. Ports have been from like hardware, to like hardware, for example the AT&T Galaxy Skyrocket has basically the same internals, as our Note 1, and there have been ports that way. The Note used pretty much the last of those SOC's.
There is always the chance that Samsung will come out with an Official JB port for our phone.
I think you are correct, updates with gnote 2 goodies are very unlikely. Time to save up for a gnote 2!

I have seen a review fire a ROM on the international note that did have multi-window working. I don't remember the specific build but iT sure looked like a nice feature.
I don't know anything about developing software for phones but why would it be hard for a Dev to add in that functionality?
