For your model i.e GT-I9100G the update is not yet available but may be around two three days you may get it.I own a xperia s not SGS2 but my friend has it.
I help him in updating via kies which is recommended as it backups all your data
You will get the notification for update

ICS is availble for I9100G, for several regions now, and has been for about a week or two. It's uploaded on various sites (Samfirmware.com is one) if you want to download it and install via Odin.
I got the update
Got it on my phone. OTA does not show any update though. IT was quite a hassle though what with Kies failing to download the update over over and over gain. It really took a long time (17 retries) for success. Worst of all it was downloading at pathetic speed.
Here's a short observation.
1. Data remained intact. This includes apps game saves etc.
2. Battery life is a little lower but it might be better after recalibrating.
3. The colour banding has been greatly reduced. Its still there, but you really have to look hard.
4. Overall coming from Gingerbread 2.3.6 it IS a lot more stable.
I'm testing other features now
At last i updated using kies but when i ran antutu benchmark its seems that the 3d graphics came down from 768 from 1120 in android 2.3.6, i dont know whether this is for everyone. Rest everything seems to stable and smooth. Pls update any new bugs or anything.

I plugged my phone in and it said an update was available.
I checked for an Over The air and nothing, then I plugged it into
my PC and launched Kies, and it showed an update was available.
Ran the update and it is ICS 4.0.3
If I would have been smart I would have taken screen shots of how
I had my screens, now I have to try and remember how I had them.
Please try to keep this thread on topic
.
Give us some details and some screen shots or it didn't happen

Do you loose root and CWM after the update? Otherwise I would wait for a custom ROM that has it all and is bloat ware free.

Yes. Either that or the update will fail. It's just not a good idea to try an official update while rooted.
Hmm im wondering if mobile odin could help retain both bootloader and root

Lucky man. Any chance they're doing this in phases so their servers don't get overloaded? That's the only reason I can think why there's so many people, including myself, not getting the update.
Don't worry fellas after the update your phones will look exactly like they do now with all the Samsung and AT&T bloat, a hint of lag and worse battery life.

root with ICS?
is there a way to root with the new update?
thanks~!
Hi guys,
I got the ICS update from Samsung a month back in India. I am not too happy with it. It is not as smooth and it takes up a lout of ram. Of late I have been getting very little battery backup. It gives me only 3/4 of a day with light use. What could be the reason? Are there apps that I need to delete or remove our make some changes? Please help.

So I guess you are using a stock ROM. Can you tell me which version?
One of the problems (or not) is that when you update via Kies all the user data/apps remain the same. That's why I would prefer doing a wipe before upgrading so that my device will not be clogged with lots of processes.
How much screen time do you get? If you can, post a screenshot of the battery consumption.
What's your modem/baseband?
Yes you are right. I am on stock rom. Haven't had the guys to root and instal custom rom on such an expensive phone. As you say I didn't do a wipe out before I upgraded on Kies. I am on 4.0.3 and base band I9100DDLPA.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
I am having the same concern now, not like the stockics very much, it is slower( scroll list in system settings..), hot after a while. Maybe we can consider to choose cm9 or other custom roms.

I installed a british ROM instead of waiting for OTA in US and rooted my GT-p7510. Now only hoping for a modded stable kernel for overclocking.
Yesterday , Samsung auto push this 4.1.1 firmware upgrade to my phone, after completing this upgrade, restarted.
The most slower S3 firmware ever been use.
The most terrible rom......
This really discouraging me to move away from this phone.
Compare with day 1 owning this S3 back in May 2012, I really want to go back to the oldest version of rom.

Yesterday i flashed back to ale8 because i screwed something up by accident and then went through every OTA and tried them for interface speed and honestly, the difference between 4.0.4 and 4.1.1 are neglidgeable so you must have had a bad flash or something. Try redoing it or wiping and starting from scratch.

4.0 is probably better on everything, cause its older, better battery too. But not as many bells and whistles. A lot of the lag can be eliminated just by disabling ripple effect on lock screen. The remaining with Trickster. I know you don't like to read too much, but if you went to p355 - 378 in Padawan thread, all lag issues (for most) disappeared. My phone never ran better. I've gotten comfortable with bells and whistles though. Stock is very bland for me now.

Sounds like modem issue. Try flashing a separate modem on top of. Don't know what other 2 ROMs you flashed? Not sure what the effect would be, but Padawan doesn't need gapps.
But I would check modem
