I guess development of the ICS port for our SGS will get a little better after this
Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) comes to GSM / UMTS Nexus S starting today and maybe we'll see some ICS "leaks" for SGS too

I believe it will help with the hardware composition, gpu drivers etc... People on the Nexus forum say it's ultra fast! I want my SGS ultra fast too!

If sammy wont act like a b*tch, then we will also get ICS like the nexus s one in one or two months, hopefully. I dont even want the touchwiz itself on my sgs with ICS, only the music and video player from SGS GB those are for me the best apps.
So lets just hope that there will be soon an update for our awesome phone
cauz there arent so many differences between the phones, ok, cam is different, touch keys are different and nand flash is different. But doesnt matter^^ If sammy wont do anything, there is CM9 ;D
I really hope Sammy is listening to us... we never had the chance to use all the horse power in this phone!!
lets send billions of e-mail twit fb... to samsung so they hear
Not a bad idea!!!!

i just wanted to say thanks to the folks at TEAMHACKSUNG . ive been running ICS on my galaxy s since yesterday. so far it is very nice . not quite as fast as cm7 but well worth the upgrade. known issues says gps doesnt work but mine is working fine with acurracy to 10 meters. thank you very much guys ! i couldnt post this in the development thread cause im a new poster.
Lol perhaps I should make the switch...

I'm running beta1 of onecosmic and crew version, and I must agree : ICS on SGS is just plain great, and probably for most users usable as a daily rom, depending on your exact needs.
The look and feeel is really awesome, but many older apps feel clunky now !
Now if only Samsung could get there act together and offer to all SGS owner an official port .....

first betas afaik should be at start of december - so quite soon.
give ICS a try! running for a few days in my i9000B with minor issues only. You should have some experiencie with flashing before even consider to try
/me impatianlty waiting for the camera to work :|
ICS is quite astonishing, however its port for SGS is still in early BETA development stage so newbies should wait for the final release as it naturally suffers from some bugs. Devs are doing a great job and hopefully ICS project on SGS will be finished quickly... maybe it's going to be a Christmas present
Yeah, it is quite awesome. I think I can't go back I use gingerbread anymore.

'Hey guys, I've just ported ICS to the Samsung Galaxy S (that rhymes!), let me know your thoughts!'
'The what? Who's Samsung? :S'
I tried the ICS port for about 3 days, it running pretty smooth for a BETA, but... I came back to CM7.
I don't really see any advantages of the ICS compared to GB. The menus looks a bit fancier than GB, but I can't see any other advantages. Some apps don't work because they are not optimized for ICS, like facebook sync and some other apps. It still lags more than CM7 (for now). And I really like the toggles on the status bar on CM7, I cannot have them on the ICS port.
What do you guys like so much about ICS that you can't have on CM7??

ICS is the bigest android makeover so far and to say is not that different than GB is big understatement . I've been using android since Cupcake and ICS is the bigest change so far. And I,m loving it.

I love ICS as well, but there are many features of touchwiz that I find necessary, like the toggles in the notification bar.
I've been resisting it, but all the good things I keep reading about these ICS ports, I think I might have a go!
lol thats what I am worried about, so I am going to take everyone positive comments in for now.
then when ICS is close to being perfect (like official release version) i will make the switcharoooooo.
I have tried alpha6 version but i was missing FM radio so I switched back to official rom. I am seriously missing smart dialing in ICS. Is it possible to port it to ICS??
Many thanks to devs
Great work

From qhat I've read: no
I see no reason not to get it... Nexus S got it and runs it ultra fast. That means Galaxy S is more than capable of running it! Also, Nexus S needed to be updated to 2.3.6 to be able to upgrade. I believe we will see leaks for our devices as well. I think that is one reasons Samsung never released TouchWiz 4 for our device, I believe it will come in this ICS update (if they make one).

That's day dreaming.
We will most likely not get TW4 but maybe if the planets align properly we will get ICS.

Day dreaming? Why would they port the old crappy TouchWiz 3 on ICS when they have an already ported and new version of TouchWiz 4?
Also... Samsung Wave got TouchWiz 4 in Bada 2.0 update, I don't see why Galaxy S won't get it in ICS (both are HUGE updates and both devices share the same hardware).

To make their clients happy and keep staying with Samsung products? One thing is sure... if they update SGS to ICS, I will keep buying Samsung phones and I'm sure I'm not the only one who will do the same!
Nexus One doesn't have i9000's power...
I hate android fragmentation. SGS is capable to run ICS withouth any problems but its questionable will samsung release update. That fragmentation will cost android, now or later but it will damage androids reputation.
it is a WHEN question not IF
I hear samsung is going to ufficial update sgs to ics... but first sgs II...
Then lets keep our fingers crossed
Me thinks Samsung will not release ICS officially for SGS. But we will get CM9 anyway so I don't care
Dont mattet if samsung updates it..... see sig

That's what I thought they'll achieve with ICS... and now we have some Galaxy Nexus models that won't get aosp update, what a mess.
But a lot of manufacturers are working fast on ICS, that's nice to see though (minus the bloat).
Wow, I saw right now a video on youtube with ICS 4.0.3 on Nexus S, it runs flawlessly and soooo smooth. I love the new Launcher from ICS, will it be possible to get it runing on our Galaxy S when we receive ICS officialy (at this moment I'm pretty shure that we will )?

I hope samsung will also make a 4.0 for the SGS why not they done the nexus s they are so close.
I really doubt Samsung will make ICS for SGS. All their efforts would probably be concentrated towards SGSII and Note

At the moment this doesnt mean so much as you think. We need the source code for nexus s to get a nice build of ICS. Otherwise the rom would suck, if you know what I mean
anyway, does anybody know if nexus s can now record videos with 720p??
I just saw this on SamMobile firmware page:
GT-I9100 - I9100XXLPJ - Android 4.0.3 - 2012 February - I9100OXALPJ - Open Europe
See: sammobile.com/firmware
It's starting??? Finally????
Not sure if it's helpful for us for the N7000, i suppose that a few drivers are in common, but it lacks the system UI and SPen. The stock frequencies are also differents.
Futur 'll us
so what about note??
Does it support switching to a normal Android 4.0 Holo launcher??
What it really means is that now they can start working full time for us, so the leaks should start dropping again... I hope

As above ^ This really means nothing for us..

It is identical to the ones we got from the chinese leaked version which does not looks like pure ICS.

Why would you ever think you were going to get a pure ICS?
Well will this be usefull for development. Becuase they have to release sources and Gnote is almost similar to SgS2.....
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
Well, touchwiz it is still better than pure ics who can't even make folders in the drawer.
I have a nexus and I still using go launcher, the contact section it is a skin, the functions are the same.
But if you want stock ics wait some weeks for a rom
It seems that Samsung is currently deploying ICS in Asia and Europe, the ICS release for Note is going to follow.
Hope this will help devs to release custom ROMs without this crappy Touchwiz
I see where ICS for the SGS2 released by sammy has already been rooted.
The first few "official" releases should have numerous exploits that allow for
root without too much trouble.
I'll just be glad to get root back. I screwed up on the last update and did it
from Kies and lost root and don't want to jump through the hoops of downgrading,
wiping etc just to get root back, knowing the ICS update will probably wipe it all out again anyway.

So... what i am writing here is in my right and I don[t need to hear all this crap saying why would you want this update looks like pure ICS...

Touchwiz is Samung's way of branding their Android devices. If every manufacturer included stock Android in their phones, what would be the incentive to get one particular device over another, especially if the hardware of all high end devices from all manufacturers is almost identical? Unfortunately, if you want the stock Android experience you'll have to get a Nexus, or flash a stock rom built from the ICS source code. Can't have your cake and eat it too I guess..

They have a SGS II port in the i9000 forum that is ICS touchwiz and it seams to run pretty well, (they have a video, i tried to port it but the kernel is hacked to make it work) so really they just dont want to do it.

If you guys are really still stuck on the subject, you could try to spread the word of this petition...

Sadly the petition started to slow down about a month ago, but hey, maybe you guys can give it a second wind. Although I honestly doubt we'll get an official upgrade at this point in time.
