1. Yes , you may right
2.Its not the firepower, Ace have Gingerbread right? So it has enough power for ICS, so wrote Google.
3. It was released in February, so we should get an update

It's not about who makes the phone. It's about how much RAM the device has. Anything under 512MB of ram is, from everything i have read, will not be supported. Things change though, but dont be surprised if we aren't supported by Cyanogen or Samsung.

We are in the main forum now.. :)

Did anyone notice? Would it make any difference? Is Galaxy Ace getting popular now?
Hah! That's awesome! I was kinda surprised about SGA not being in the main when i first got my SGA.
well.. i just checked.. They moved it to legacy if the forum have low activity..
yeah. since cyanogenmod and gingereal is coming soon, activities in the SGA section is more active

Yup - there's a lot of great things happening with Ace, so we wanted to put it back on the main index.
Most of the carriers in Asia just released the Galaxy Ace this May 2011 and June 2011. That's probably why we're seeing greater activity now for the Ace than before.

moved to legcy & low activity devices ??

why did the ace forum moved to legacy section?
we wanna complain
it is a verey active section
how to complain?
I also wanted this to be moved back to the main page. admins! please!
ya please admins move it back to the main page.. i feel like selling my device now.. really heartbreaking..
Lol
why taking it that much
Ace forum not has low activity at all
which called low activity see in galaxy fit forum thats called where second or third thread have two days agos posts
ace is not older even optimus one and x8 are much older than ace which still on main page
but they have recognize dev who update rom one in month still they called active forum
Anyway its not big deal
if you feel that bad and have free time read as much possible about development and start for your phone so you can contribute
Reasone for removing ace from main forum is to make place for new samsung device as our company realise lots device
and fit already transfered from main page so turn was our beloved ace

No point complaining. The site owners have done what they do on a regular basis. This has always happened and will always continue. Every now and then they look at which forums are busiest and they move the lower activity ones.
Its not a personal attack. Have you seen how many new high end phones have been released in the last six months around the world and how many are being sold every day? Some are more popular than others. It means nothing to be moved, as long as people keep the place alive it will be here.
If you need to be on the front page because of your insecurities buy a new phone because this forum won't be moved no matter how much anyone cries to the mods/admins/owners. Clicks mean money and they can earn more from others forums/phones with higher activity. Something has to earn money to keep the site functioning.

sadly I agree with you.. I should start learning android development I mean like from this week onward and start contributing to our community in some way.. I just graduated last week and its time to mess with android.. Nims could you direct me for some good development websites so I could start reading..
XDA's action to move GSA to "new house" more or less makes us unhappy but anyway it not affects to the fact that CyanogenMod 7.2 official release will include our devices (not nightlies as confirmed by Kolja Dummann on G+)

I think this is unfair..there are so many older and lower spec devices than SGA but still on the first page... but as long as you guys keep developing for our ace no matter where we belong to.. and I love my ace..maybe 1-2 years more before I change my phone to the new one with new technology..
I am still on my ace, even though I am planning to buy SE Xperia Neo V, I will never throw nor sell my ACE, my baby...

Me too...I dont think i will be able to part with my ace easily,Its my first Android phone,if i learned anything about Android,its because of this phone...Even if i want to change....
I dont think my father would let me buy one atleast for the next 6 months anyway
Not that changing phones regularly is a good thing,with a smartphone market like this,you really have no choice,look at Ace,when it came out.It was an awesome phone for its price,a mid-high end ranged phone...But now its sad that people call single core under 1GHz phones,low end
this news has no effect on me. i still love my ace,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

[Q] How much longer until the Official ICS update??

Grow up. Samsung isn't doing anything to you. XDA is for people who want to load custom ROMs. There's at least three ICS ROMs available now in the dev forum. If you just want Samsung's (bloated) ICS, why are you here?

Well an official release sure would be good, don't you think? Along with complete working drivers.
Dont want an official release if it's going to be as bad as the sgs2 ICS ;-)
well, the one and only reason we're waiting for the officail release is to get the camera drivers. As far as I'm concerned everything else is working great in Kang rom.

What about my comment would suggest I don't think Samsung should do an official release? I'm just fed up with the whining. What's the point? It doesn't get us any closer to working camera drivers, and it's just mucking up the forum (which wouldn't be such a big deal if the mods would occasionally delete nonsense threads like this....).
BTW- for others thinking maybe Samsung reads these forums: they don't. XDA is (well, it was...) for power-users and devs. We are a tiny fraction of the customer base, and (if you know anything about the business) pretty unimportant. This isn't an insult; it's honesty.
Also, if you want a reason to be angry at Samsung, consider the way the workers in the factories are treated. You think Samsung treats you bad? Try being one of the young women that build the components in the factories, or the people who live nearby and can't drink the water from their own well... You've got it pretty good. You'll get ICS, stop whining on XDA. (BTW- this is directed at the OP, not Jay).

I totally agree, but that's what the report button is for. The mods have plenty to do and can't cover every thread in every forum. Reporting always works a treat for me.

Moving to Q&A
Wait, slack isn't it Apple factory who has it THAT bad? I'm pretty sure all the news headlines were directing it at apple. Samsung does treat it's people a bit better compared to apple.
I don't see how the release can be any different? I thought ICS was supposed to be, "one general OS for all devices" which mean's only minor changes need to be made to adjust to the platform it will be installed on as they already have all the official driver's ahead of time before release. Problem is they pamper the new devices and focus on them that they leave devices like GTab, in the dark.
I've quit anticipating the ICS release with Samsung's horrible "Survival of the fittest" stunt they pulled on which will and will not get the ICS update, no compensation pack was offered aswell despite their promise.

Good news from the ICS ATT SGSII front (Better news for Skyrocket)

RootzWiki has broken news that they have a leaked official 4.0 for the ATT SGSII Skyrocket.
Interesting fact: build date is March 14.
Good news for us... I can only hope so. Just wanted to share this little tidbit with the SGSII world.

just how I said a months ago, Skyrocket and Vivid are getting ICS before the i777, the source release helped but still not a fully functional.

And we're already aware the ****rocket got an ICS leak that was useless to us. Thus this thread is useless because it's redundant - the OP is yet another person who broke the XDA rules and posted without searching. The ****rocket ICS leak has already been discussed numerous times in other threads, it is NOT news and does NOT justify creating yet another new thread so that you can get "omg I have my own thread on XDA!!!" cred.
We're about a week out of kernel sources, and we already have ICS in a better state than that leak. The only things that remain are polishing and NFC, and the polishing part would be required even if we'd gotten official ICS at the same time as the I9100 - it simply takes time to do a proper kernel on a new source base for a completely new Android base.
NFC may require an official I777 ICS release, or maybe just a bit of hacking to get the M250S/K stuff working on I777. If I can get the M250 stuff working on I777, there's a good chance I can get it working on CM9 at that point too.
Redundant thread is redundant.
Closed thread is closed.

There's a difference between being rude and being excited and subtle hints to determine which of the two a person is demonstrating
My Intention was not too be rude hahaha i was excited. Anyone takers on the port? pretty please stinky like some old cheese. Also, unfortunately the only thing i can cook is a peanut butter sandwhich (just kidding) so i cant produce a kernel. Although, i could find an international version an bring it over although that wouldnt help because there on a different CPU right?
