Samsung Galaxy S2 Ice Cream Sandwich?

[andy_m]

Yeah. Apparently the problem is that most of us on Virgin have unbranded handsets. Samsung have confirmed that the network branded phones will be updated first so that they can be sure the unbranded still work regardless of which network they're being used on. And to that end we're still waiting for t mobile...

Only found that out after my last post, but thought the info might be useful to some.

The firmware upgrade is now available on KIES. Mine is upgrading now.

[andy_m]

Excellent news - just waiting for a full charge and I'll be upgrading.

Tried to update SG2 but really KIES is absolute rubbish so far.

[howardmicks]

Updated mine but voicemail now as gone off and my email account wouldnt work for nearly a hour

[andy_m]

I've updated it, but the phone has become a bit unstable so I wouldn't be in a huge rush if you haven't managed it yet.

Same here Den,keep getting the error message about usb debugging and non compatable. Also tried it on wi fi and that wont work either.

I'm just downloading Ice Cream Sandwich via the update on my phone and NOT via Kies. For some reason,automatic update didn't alert me so I am doing it manually.

Package is 223.46mb,should take around 20 minutes via Wi-Fi

Then after the download....another 20 minutes installing.

Ice Cream Sandwich looking good but it really drains the battery compared to Gingerbread. So it can be downloaded via the handset after all. Some have said that it is only available via Kies but it isnt true.
