I9000 successor?
No 2.3 for I9000?
I think it was already said by Samsung, that SGS will get 2.3 update.

Scared by the evolution is fate slogan.
but it has to give some news on the SGS as they used the pic of it why not just use a big ? rather then bring peoples hopes up.
well, let's hope it is a new update for SGS, 2.3 That is all i'm hoping now cause i'm not quite happy with 2.2.1 version yet )
we will not get to see 2.3 from samsung theres not been an anouncement or leaked roms.. samsung will release a better galaxy with 2.3 rather then just update the galaxy s thats why i went for darkys rom its the only way we will get a taste of 2.3

I fully agree with you. I don't think we will see a official 2.3 release from Samsung, so i will wait and see what Samsung has to offer. If i don't like what i see, i think i will buy LG Optimus 2x..

Wether you state they will or wether you state they wont, it is all speculation.
Ya I agree all speculation, I honestly think 2.3 will make it's way to this phone, it just came out and it the number one selling phone. As for that new phone I hear it will be a tegra phone with 2.3. But ha it's all speculation.

I would also agree,
probably late spring early summer.
I have no doubt it will get 2.3 but not until after the 13th and then maybe a month later

Samsung are going to change the world. They are going to say " with 10million units sold and counting we have decided that we want to stick with the galaxy s. So as from tommorow you can go to your local Samsung service center and get a dual core mainboard upgrade and 2.3 but that's not all. You can have 2.3 aosp or 2.3 touchwiz. Just to show we care and listen "

With all my heart and soul, I sincerely hope that happens. lol.
well the site states Galaxy S so maybe they'll announce Gingerbread for us.
OR ICE CREAM SANDWICH ^_________^
Is it bad I'm thinking of ordering an omina 7 case and seeing if my galaxy s board fits in it. So much better looking.

Im on a kb2 froyo bought from att are they going to release a GB update or did the S II release kill the initiative
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
No one really knows. But Samsung has 2 version of GB that they have been working with. Nothing to do but wait. FYI ATT doesn't have to release it, samsung could release on their site (its a possibility)
In case you guys didn't see this, it's the official announcement from ATT that GB is indeed coming to Captivate. We just don't know exactly when...

Yea but took how long for froyo? And with new devices like Galaxy S2 Galaxy Note, so on and forth captivate isnt high on their list.
Is it possible to go into the att store and get the update
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
Well, to my understanding, the thread was about IF they were releasing GB. We know that they are. And, yes, I too agree that they GSII is a priority for the company. But I am sure there is some group of people at Samsung and ATT that have the design and release of GB for Captivate a priority. The reason we won't get it for a while (I believe) is because they want us to go buy the new phones instead of getting free updates now.
Froyo took a long time, indeed. But again, I believe that OS upgrades are released at strategic times, not necessarily when they are ready.
I believe I read that Samsung said it will deliver the newest android os for 18 months after devices are sold. So yes they (samsung) will be giving us gingerbread. I would THINK it will be AFTER other phones like the SGS2 are available for a bit. So that also should mean that the SGS2 at least will also see IceCream Sandwich soon enough. Whether the Captivate gets icecream sandwich officially should be the bigger question. I know I read this somewhere on the net that Samsung said this is how they would be doing it from now on, they are trying to keep people happier in the future rather than the bad Rep they got over the froyo fiasco with our devices. I am sure if you did a search on the net you should be able to find those articles somewhere.

My girlfriends dad.just got the verizon otiginal galaxy tab. I want to put ics on it but all I see is ics and roms for p1000. is the vzw tab p1000 also? I did my homework but couldnt find anything. Thanks
Hey! Guess what:
http://lmgtfy.com/?q=verizon+galaxy+tab+7"+model+number
Hey. Guess what. It didn't help. Thanks for trying though.
seriously?
the first result is
Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 inch (Verizon)
www.samsung.com/us/mobile/galaxy-tab/SCH-I800BKAVZW
SCH-I800 if your eyes are still crossed... sorry.
BTW, since you mentioned ICS, you can check out the dev section:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1498371
Lmao. Didn't think p1000 was a model number but something else. I also knew this was a sch-i800 but thought that applied for all models, us and abroad. Thanks for being a douchebag.
you can always hit thanks.
lulz
Go to rootzwiki for cdma ics
Vzwtab is sch-i800 not p1000

the tablet is from bell......and you are only using the rogers sims... not the firmware ....
so thats mean if ics come tomorrow .... it will be from bell
I'm dying as well. Been hunting down an 8.9 as it's an optimal size for gaming (for nearly 2 months). I finally found one bnib for $300 only to find out it's on 3.2 and that' only gets me the old version of my game (that I'm addicted to). I'm literally dying here.
The 10.1 played the game awesomely (does the 10.1 have ics? I thought it did, but it was too big, hence I downgraded.
Anyway., it's supposedly a carrier free 8.9, but I see Bell PVR and crap like that in the apps.
Is there any way to get ICS on this tablet currently or not? I've never rooted or delved into that stuff so if there is a way, I may take a chance and gettur done.
I'm dying here. I'm literally twice a day checking if there's an update. I can't believe there are people who've had the update since July or earlier.

There's no carrier free canadian gtab 8.9 LTE, you maybe just got an unlocked device from the seller. I also have the Bell version 8.9 LTE since release date which I unlocked & now using it with Rogers much more reliable LTE and its always been in the same 3.2 HoneyComb firmware. Currently there is no ICS update for it yet, but I am also patiently waiting for it because I saw great renewed life on my Galaxy Tab 7.7 on ICS and my 11month old daughter's Rogers Gtab 10.1 is running awesome with its recently released Rogers ICS update.
Im pretty sure the ICS Update is coming really soon and it will come when you lease expect it.
I feel ICS will also make this device more awesome.

That's reassuring to know....but still impatient for the release.
Since you disclosed all that info-I have a question for you. Processor-wise, shouldn't both the 8.9 and 10.1 operate similarly? There's a multi-player game I'm addicted to that played great on the 10.1 with ICS (a later version of the game-which I'm thinking is possibly the cause). When I play on the 8.9 this past week I have two issues.
1-controls glitch infrequently (eventhough multi-touch tests don't show any issues)
2-the game is shockingly slow and laggy.
I'm playing on the same network (wifi), no other differences, just device is different, and the game version is different. I'm praying that with ICS the tab will function much better (same as the 10.1), and the compatible more recent version of the game will equally play better.

That info is not confirm yet, and those brave fellow xdadev members that tried it only got light bricked results.
So currently we're still waiting for its release.

Processor & CPU Clock wise, on paper Gtab 8.9 LTE is better than the Gtab 10.1
P7500 Gtab 10.1 - only have 1ghz Nvidia Tegra 2 T20
While
i957m Gtab 8.9 LTE - have 1.5ghz Nvidia Tegra 2 T25
Comparing my i957m to my p7500 when both of them we're still 3.2HC - the i957 was more faster & stable.
Now that the p7500 got the ICS update, difference in speed and stability to my i957m is night & day. i957m doesn't even come close to the p7500.
So hopefully when we finally get the official ICS update to our i957m it will maximize its speed and stability to the fullest to solve your problem to that game you're playing.

Hello,
I am trying to get a phone for my 17yr old daughter: she is not heavy data user (just web browsing).. I am torn between the Samsung Captivate or Galaxy Ace: I can get both from Amazon for about $150.
Which do you think would give the best bang for the buck (I know I am posting in a Captivate forum, so I am aware of the implicit biases)?
cheers, MN
From reading the specs,
With ace you get LED flash for camera, FM radio. Those are the only two features which are not found on captivate. It has an 800 mHz processor versus 1,000 mHz.
In terms of variety of ROMs and support both at Xda and elsewhere, Captivate is the phone to get. Although the last official captivate ROM was 2.3.5 gingerbread officially released in Jan 2012, there are solid stable Jelly Bean 4.2.2 ROMs available, and ongoing nightly or weekly updates.
So unless an LED flash or an FM radio is essential, go for captivate.

Samsung Captivate is just overall better phone then Galaxy Ace.
Captivate is beats!!
