It's on Samsung Mobile's FB page for starters.

Not to sound like a **** or anything, but I'm pretty sure everyone here already knows it's coming soon.

Agreed. lol

The list that is attached and linked to only states IF a device will receive ICS, not WHEN. So the title of this thread is completely misleading.
"Soon" is a condition of time, not intention. The phrase you're looking for is
"ICS will be coming"
But then, of course, we would all respond..."uh, yeah, we know"
http://www.androidcentral.com/att-provides-ics-list-nothing-surprise-us
I'm sorry for being brash but it seems like an attempt to generate fictitious hype.

By definition, "soon" for the US carriers= forever....to never.
Don't be surprised if at&t doesn't release official ICS until next year...when basically the Note 2 should be released by then.
Typical US carriers' method of sucker-punching people to buy out-dated phones (doesn't usually apply to XDA anyways...)

They released a ICS update pretty quickly for the HTC Vivid and there are already plenty of Betas out for the Samsung Galaxy S II | Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket as well as the Note. AFAIK T-Mobile doesn't have any expect release dates for ICS on their Galaxy S II model.

This is the international version. You can buy it unlocked and use it on AT&T, but the U.S. Variants haven't been announced.

Why does everybody assume that the big two will get it first? The Vibrant was released first on T-Mobile, it might just be that case this time around too.

correct me if i'm wrong but wasn't T-Mobile USA just bought by AT&T? just sayin'
You think they're going to let an 80 million subscriber company swallow a 30 million one? And plus, that doesn't get in the way of phone releases. There's still a year to go: plenty of time to sell a variant of the SGSII on T-Mo.

Alright so I was off on the subscriber numbers. That still doesn't change the fact that this deal right now is most likely not going to happen. As the articles you posted say, removing T-Mo from the picture would relieve the pressure the carrier puts on the others with its low prices not to mention a significant amount of people that are against the acquisition, including several members of the FCC.
EDIT- Fixed a few grammatical errors.

You are right. do not know why you are being harassed here
TMo will be doing its own business for at least a year.
It will release its own variant of SGS2. I would not be surprised if ATT again has a unique to it shape.

Why bother waiting for a contract-chaining, feature-deprived, update-delayed, support-deficient, bloat-filled, subsidized version? The international version is 100% compatible with AT&T.

Oh I see your point. But "att already has it" is not correct, speaking your language it WILL have it on May 1st.
And to answer your "why bother question" - because it will be 3.5x cheaper subsidized, it can be freely swapped at AT&T if anything is wrong with the set, and it will carry a one year warranty. Some people prefer this to having no bloatware .
And I HOPE since there is no more exclusivity to iPhone, AT&T won't be maiming features of its android phones.
That said, if I hear that AT&T is releasing at end of July, I will probably buy an import
Wow... quite descriptive.
Ultimately, you will enjoy this device more as how Samsung envisioned it. Although, if you cannot afford the international rates, then the ATT / TMO versions will not differ to much aside from the Software. That can always be modified later on.

[Q]Korean SGS2 Got ICS. Any part of the firmware of use for us?

Was looking for the stock firmware for my i957 on SamMobile and noticed under the latest firmware section the SHW-M250K which is the Korean version of the SGS2 got ICS.
I was wondering if anything out of it would help speed up the process for the rest of us.

Yeah Korean = international I think

I think we're looking for i9100, which is also there. Those two have shaded kies icons, though. Not sure what that means...
It's likely another beta firmware that sammobile promised.

Which will be released with or around the time the update goes live. That's if Samsung wants to comply with GPL.

Let's see how good Sammy is at meeting their legal obligations this time around. They epicfailed with the Infuse (Almost a month delay...)
Maybe source will follow sooner than later. It looks like Samsung dumped to the i9100 in parts of Europe also.
I wan't a nice AT&T compatable version to run on my i777

ICS can be discussed in the ICS thread in General... asking about other firmwares for other countries does not warrant a new thread.

Where's the Thread?

Well, this is meant more as a post, but where'd that universal ICS thread go off to, now =0? This will get locked soon, anyway, but yeah, just two pieces of news, maybe good, maybe not, that I saw recently: the first being, DesignGears leaving the Galaxy Nexus, but going to the SkyRocket. Not sure that's good or bad. Of course, they're two different phones, but I think he helped them out so maybe he's just jumping phone to phone?
And the second being that the SkyRocket just got an ICS leak from out of nowhere, fully functional as well, which really threw me off as the SkyRocket is a specific branch of the Galaxy S II, not exactly the international version or anything. We were supposed to get it a lot before them, but so much for those dreams. Regardless, I do appreciate the load of work put in by the developers and I'm not throwing that away at any point, but yeah, it's interesting overall. In the long run (which might just be a week or two after now maybe, who knows), us non-SkyRocket's will be better off with a phone that's faster overall, but yeah, did not expect any of this to happen.
Just an update for those of you who haven't heard yet/ cares ?

ICS really until start of July

Just checked motorola's forum and one of the motorola's staff answered to a question that "Upgrade should be available before the start of July, but delays are possible."
I hope it is really so near...

delays are possible
Moto, delays? You are more than 6 months behind stupid
They are only saying that it's possible. If the servers get hacked, there's a delay. If the power goes out and some data gets lost, there's a delay. Right now it seems they are ready to release, but it is possible that something out of their control may happen.

How do you know that was a Motorola Employee?
Furthermore, that was specifically in response to a question about ICS in India. That may or may not be accurate for the rest of the world.
First off he's asking about ICS India which doesn't have the same ETA as USA/Canada. Second, I don't go on the motorola forums ever but how exactly do you know that the "servbotx" user works at moto? I see no indication they're a moderator or administrator of the forum so how can you verify what he/she is saying? Could just be an troll/random guesswork

First off - I am from EMEA so I don't care about USA/Canada from this point of view.
Second, I am visiting moto's forum quite long and although moto's forums are technically bad and don't have visible user status, I know that servbotx IS a forum staff...
I just posted what I found on the official forum and we all will see if it was or wasn't true (and to be honest is I believe what he says much more than some bullshits about the ics on this forum...) - in a nutshell - you don't have to believe it if you don't want to... ;-)
I would not be so optimistic, anyway let's hope there will not be anymore delays

Good to know, thx for the news
Nice. Been waiting for this.
I usually look forward to the updates but the beta has been rock solid for me this time so I don't mind the wait. If the US phones are scheduled for January then my unlocked phone won't get the release till almost February anyway.
Why did they make the US dead last? I'm confused

So the carriers can sign off on it, it's always been that way. The majority of Samsung phones are sold through the carriers so they get the final say.
