Samsung releases list of U.S. smartphones, tablets to get Android 4.0 ICS upgrades
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesOperating SystemsSamsungVerizon WirelessT-MobileAT&TGoogleAndroid 4.0
Samsung has posted a list of the smartphones and tablets available in the U.S. that it plans to upgrade to Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich at some point this year. Most of the phones on the list have already been promised upgrades to Android 4.0 by their carriers, but it never hurts to have further confirmation from the manufacturer. Still missing from the upgrade list? Any variant of the original Galaxy S, though, that's not entirely unexpected.

Unlocked Samsung Galaxy S II getting Android 4.0 update
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesOperating SystemsSamsungGoogleGalaxy S IIAndroid 4.0
After reaching overseas versions of the Samsung Galaxy S II, the official Android 4.0 update is now reaching US versions of the unlocked device. The 216.6MB over-the-air update is gradually being released to handsets, though users can go and check for its availability by going into the Settings menu.
Like in the last update for the overseas handsets, TouchWiz is retained and the Android 4.0 UI is relatively invisible. Users will get Face Unlock, however, and support for newer apps including Chrome for Android and other, less visible upgrades.

Droid RAZR soak test suddenly shifts to ICS test?
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesOperating SystemsMotorolaGoogleDROID RAZRAndroid 4.0
We reported last week that the Droid RAZR soak test was not going to include Android 4.0 – Ice Cream Sandwich. Today, the story got more complicated. A tipster speaking to Droid-Life suggested that ICS was inserted at a late date into the soak test. Apparently, the admin of the Motorola soak test forum said the following:
Looks like we got a surprise people. This regular soak test has now turned into an official soak test for Android 4.0 also known as Ice Cream Sandwich. Please subscribe to this feed for updates and more information will be posted as soon as possible.

Best Buy says ICS for the RAZR delayed, Rezound still on for Friday
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesOperating SystemsHTCMotorolaGoogleRezoundAndroid 4.0RAZR
Droid-Life got ahold of an internal employee memo Best Buy sent out yesterday, updating employees on the status of Ice Cream Sandwich updates for some of Verizon’s most popular phones. First, Best Buy told employees what we already reported to you – that the updates headed to the Droid RAZR and RAZR MAXX aren’t going to be ICS, they will be bug fixes.
We’re not sure that translates as ICS being “delayed”; there was never anything but speculation that today’s soak test for RAZR devices would be Android 4.0, so Best Buy may have simply jumped the gun with their previous announcement.

Nexus S 4G ICS update starts rolling out
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesOperating SystemsGoogleNexus S 4GAndroid 4.0
A few weeks ago we told you Android 4.0 was coming to the Nexus S 4G soon, then just a few days ago we saw a leaked update based on Android 4.0.4. Sprint just let us know that the update is officially rolling out, starting now. The update brings a number of new enhancements from Ice Cream Sandwich, including Android Beam, a new camera interface with panorama mode and the new UI enhancements in Android 4.0 that we've come to love. Sprint's email says that the update will be automatically downloaded to the user's phone when it is available, so keep an eye out for a prompt to apply. It will be sent out in waves, and they make no mention of a manual download process. For those of you rockin...

Ice Cream Sandwich melts and leaks for the Samsung Galaxy Note
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesOperating SystemsSamsungGoogleGALAXY NoteAndroid 4.0
A functional Android Ice Cream Sandwich build for the one and only Samsung Galaxy Note has leaked on the Internets, and it even comes as a trendy one-click installer Odin file.
Don't expect the Premium Suite with this leak, just Android 4.0 covered in a layer of TouchWiz, but it should be good to play around with until the official thing hits this quarter. Your internal memory gets wiped during install, so make sure you move the stuff out temporarily while updating.

ICS reaches 2.9 percent of active Android devices, 63.7 percent still on Gingerbread
Like UnlikeFiled in: Operating SystemsGoogleAndroid 2.3Android 4.0
As we check back in on Android's Platform Versions dashboard for the first time since January, we can finally see notable growth in the percentage of devices running some flavor of Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, up for 0.6 percent then to 2.9 percent. That's likely fueled by the release of updates for the Samsung Galaxy S II and HTC Sensation family of devices, and is a sharp uptick from last month when it registered on 1.6 percent. Gingerbread (2.3) still reigns supreme, running 63.7 percent of the Android hardware that accessed the Play market in the last two weeks, but its growth seems to finally be slowing. Last year at this time that position was filled by Android 2.2, with 2.3 on just...

Nexus S 4G official Android 4.0.4 update leaked, WiMAX radio improvements included?
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesOperating SystemsGoogleNexus S 4GAndroid 4.0
Google released its Android 4.0.4 updates for the GSM Nexus S just a couple of days ago, but for users with Sprint's version of the phone it's been a long wait for Ice Cream Sandwich. Thankfully, BriefMobile has posted what it says is the official over-the-air 4.0.4 ROM for the WiMAX-enabled Nexus S. Along with the newest version of Android, the update has a new baseband that early adopters say has significantly improved WiMAX reception. The site promises that the update will be released OTA for the Nexus S 4G soon, but we've been here before — two months ago a similar 4.0.4 ROM for the device was leaked. If you're not convinced that the update is coming soon and you're aware of the risks, c...

Well, that didn't take long. Sprint may not have opened its own icebox just yet, but thanks to a BriefMobile source, Nexus S 4G owners can snag themselves Ice Cream Sandwich anyway. While there have been previous efforts, BriefMobile says the leak contains the full, official ICS update, which will be delivered to handsets OTA shortly.

Galaxy S II Skyrocket tasty ICS treat unwrapped early
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesOperating SystemsSamsungGoogleAndroid 4.0Galaxy S II Skyrocket
The Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket HD debuted on AT&T early this year, and at the time it was rocking Android 2.3 as the operating system. Samsung has been slowly updating many of its smartphones to Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich. The Skyrocket is one of the devices getting the update along with the regular S II and several other smartphones that already have it.
I’m sure there are more than a few users of the Skyrocket that worried they may not get ICS, but those fears are unwarranted. The official ICS built for the Skyrocket has been around apparently since March 14, even though it hasn’t officially launched yet. If you are tried waiting for the official launch, apparently RootzWiki has lan...

AT&T rolls out Android 4.0 to HTC Vivid, other devices getting ICS in the 'coming months'
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesOperating SystemsHTCAT&TGoogleAndroid 4.0Vivid
Be still our beating heart. Just two weeks ago we heard Android 4.0 -- that upgrade lovingly referred to as Ice Cream Sandwich -- would be reaching the HTC Vivid "in the coming weeks." We even saw the update trickle in to select devices last week without any official notice from the mother ship. AT&T's finally ready to open the floodgates and pour the refresh out to the masses. This download in particular includes Sense 3.6, but throws in third-party Beats Audio support -- a feature that until now has only been seen in version 4.0. If you're packing a Vivid, just make sure you're hooked up to WiFi and head to the settings to get your download on. If it doesn't find the update yet, you also h...
