This lol. All the 2.2 roms depended on Samsung's leaks as a base to have full functionality.

This would be exciting if we had received 2.2 back in September, when it was promised. Samsung is a joke, but we all know that already.

I don't see it. And if it is true, I'm guessing it'd take til June of 2011 to get it in the Galaxy S. Which then would be delayed to July, then August, then September.....
I really think Samsung does it on purpose. I've gone through so many scenarios as to why they are delaying FroYo for so long, and I just cannot reason it. I am certain it is on purpose. Why? That's the one million dollar question. Could it be to sell more Nexus S'? Could be. But no one knows for sure except Samsung...
I just don't see how a company as big as Samsung can't devote the manpower to put this thing together and up and running months ago.

Maybe you weren't around to see the stupidly ridiculous amount of Froyo threads before the leaked builds started coming out. Maybe you're right and he just didn't find it, but we've all heard the same things before, by trolls and Samsung.

Because Samsung never have to made products that needs long term commitmenets. They make TV, Monitors, and Flash Disks, and dumb phones which were all sales are final kind of product; as long as there are no large manufacturer defect, it's pretty much end of support - minus some lemons.
They did have the omnia series, but they develop the OS in house, but was also slow as hell to push out updates. That's the only counter argument I foresee.
Overall, Samsung is just very bad at software, kind of like Sony before PS3.

Tip! Only believe what Google says!

According to Samsung, we will have 2.2 by the end of September.

wow! we all have this phone and are apart of this site. doesnt that stand for something? like the people who have this phone and know nothing of the mods or roms here really do love this phone. they might not be enjoying the luxuries that we have but they are content. besides if i can enjoy gingerbread on this phone before i upgrade it to something newer in the future, cool! if not i will enjoy all of the spectacular work that has been shared by the devs of this community!

what year did they say 2013? As others have stated Samsung has failed to deliver on 2.2 I think 2 or 3 times now and keep pushing it back.
Why would anyone have any faith that they are going to release 2.3 when they can't even get 2.2 out?

lol imagine if samsung gave us straight 2.3 and skipped froyo

Froyo is just known to everyone now, theres hundreds of roms that have Froyo, might as well go on to Gingerbread.

We appreciate efforts to answer our complaints with Samsung, but adding teasers about a "Huge Announcement " after 6 months of corporate neglect....... does not instill a "Warm and Fuzzy"..........I am pretty sure you understand our unhappiness with the Treatment we have Received from Samsung... et al......
It's like a Joke...... even Boost mobile and Metro pay as you go phones get 2.2 updates long before we do...........
But we are open to the MAGNANIMOUS OFFERING that is about to be bestowed on us and wait patiently for its arrival

True, Krylon did say he is legit, but still I have my doubts. I'm all for good news, not broken promises, or neglect.
All XDA Users Rock!!

If Kry says he's legit, he's legit. I wanna throw my guess to the big announcement-I think that they will not only release source but will have Vanilla android builds for those not wanting to wait for Touchwiz customizations (w/bloat obviously).

Gingerbread?
Now THAT would be an announcement.
One can dream.

Cant wait for the announcement, dont wanna get my hopes up but I hope it has to do with our favorite 's' word.
Again its funny and embarassing to see xda members direct thier complaints at you like you're some magic man that will end the nights they cry themselves to sleep over Samsung's mobile strategy. We appologize for them.
Sent from my Vibrant using XDA app, Bionix-v 1.21

I am a bit skeptical about this announcement since user complaints seem to have fallen on deaf ears for a number of months. However, I hope this will really be something substantial that will sway myself and many other users towards purchasing samsung phones again instead of holding up #neveragain signs. If samsung would be willing to fix my GPS on my vibrant that would be amazing.

An announcement as to if and when T-Mobile gets a galaxy 2 is what I would like to know. The vibrant 4g is the phone the vibrant should have been out of the gate 6 months ago but I think that was probably tmobiles decision. We probably could have had the international version if tmobile had asked for it. My concern is that if they are getting the 4g version vibrant at the end of this month then its going to be a fairly long time if ever that we get the full featured galaxy 2.

First of all thanx to everyone for discussing here...... I have just posted about Galaxy 10.1 to get CM9 ICS very soon with a link to it. However some of our friends here are unhappy. I appreciate their feelings........Better work together in future...........
Thanks & Regards

I'm not usually one to flame so I will apologize, but people on these forums are very quick to pick up on spam and it just gets old after a wile. Everthing in your posts point to promoting your website. First of all, the site you reference(as if you are not a part of them) closely resembles your user name here on XDA, not to mention the link in you signature, O and your post count alone points to the fact that you are only here to do what we are insinuating. My post count may be low, but that's only because I actually read damn near all the information I need and don't need to ask dumb questions, unless I'm really stuck or over my head.
It just gets anoying to check these threads every day to find new news about ICS, to only find a new post with week old news. This also points to the fact you have not been reading around this fourm, or else you would know people would flame you for posting the same old stuff.
So I hope you got all the web hits you needed to do what ever it is you needed to do, but could we please keep the ICS talk not relating to development on the more replied/informative threads.

Atm, the build seems only for the 7510, which is the WIFI Version. But don't worry, I suppose there will be a 3G version in the end

I don't understand why they don't just do it for the 7500, correct me if I'm wrong, but couldn't the Wifi Only people just run the 3G firmware without any consequences? It would be just like using a phone without your sim card in it wouldn't it?

You should seriously know why I (and some others) asked where the good news are. So of course the SGS+ is "Galaxy line", but the text explicitly enumerates the ics-upgradeable devices out of the "Galaxy line" - so I would not read something into it, what is not stated.

Damnit! I hate these kinda topics.
I have contacted Samsung itself. I'll post the reply here when it comes (If it'll even come )

No but I don't want to be stuck on Gingerbread for the next two years, and it seems that the developement for this phone is very poor, so thats why I'm thinking about buying a SGSII

If they let the Galaxy S+ die, I will never buy an Samsung phone again.
I'm fed up with Android slowly, having had an Desire (R.I.P.) before.
