Why install a beta test rom is my answer especially if you lack knowledge .
Wait for Samsung to actually finish the job is my view.

JJEgan, thanks thats exactly I want to know. Since I have a daily usage of my phone and its not a spare so I can't afford to experiment and get stuck in tech glitches.

I am just returning to a SGS2 after a few months over the other side with an IPhone 4s....arrrghh don't ask.
But any way When is the official ICS coming out for the SGS2?

Never. 10 c

Terrible joke you made for a newbie ^^

Probably, but not very quickly. I think a realistic expectation would be next summer for an official release.
1 year??!?? By that time there will be a SG3, damn it i really wanted it, guess ill have to replace my SG2

I think some time next year though doubt it'll be as late as summer for the exact reason you mentioned, the SG3 being released around that time of year. Expect it Spring hopefully.
Strange you'd want to replace it THIS quickly though.

Hopefully there will be some more AOSP roms which are working good.
oxygen and cm7 seem to have some probs and hardware isn't supported completely
For my htc desire there are much more complete working AOSP roms. Would be nice to have that suppot on SGS2.
surely once the ICS is out to nexus the devs will have roms cooked up in the next few days after its released..

Maybe not within a few days, but I think we'll have ICS by the end of this year, assuming it does get released in October/November.

Just get CyanogenMod then. They'll be the first to have it available. Guaranteed.

i guess its becoz Samsung doesnt release all its source codes especially for drivers and hardware specific stuffs
Lol going off past updates,
Nexus nov-dec
Galaxy feb-mar
Either way, its way too soon for us to be talking of ICS, im waiting for 2.3.5 as that will arrive before any ICS update.

miui on galaxy s3?

is anyone working on this
There is an miui developer from the galaxy s2 who has made a ROM for the S3(its in the development section) that isn't MIUI but i believe in the comments section for his ROM he has said he might start working on it soon.

Why would they wait for a good aosp... since even in the s2 where aosp and aosp rooms are so good they did base their releases on the samy base... I don't really think aosp is the bottleneck for miui on S3...
MIUI
Guys I asked one of the guys from MIUI both from their original website and Facebook they said It would a while guessing a few moths.
I was also wondering this, hope it doesnt take too long for it come out.

How exactly would any of us know? If you've searched and couldn't find an answer, then there probably isn't one.

The general public is scared of messing with their phone. They don't wanna risk messing it up. So they suck up the official updates, realize how bad they are, come here complaining about how bad they are,then realize they should've just flashed a custom ROM in the first place.
We will most likely never see an official update for our phones. ATT has already EOL the device and beyond the 4.0.4 update have no plans on updating the device any further.
After the last update from ATT, i would never buy an ATT phone again. It felt like they wanted all of us to upgrade, go through lot of pain and break our contracts(and probably get into a new one too). Most of us who upgraded were out of the 1 year warranty period as well. Not sure what ATT was thinking when pushing the upgrade.

All the carriers do the same thing. This is the main reason I only get unlocked devices and have done so for the past 10 years or so.

Oh.. so it is going to get Android 5.0? That's awsome!

Exynos chipset = very hard to make custom roms.
Marginal and overpriced device = not many developers to make roms.
If this phone would have Qualcomm chipset on the international model/version and -200€ lower price, there would be a lot more going on here.
You can't really compare this device's development to note4 which is more popular etc.
