Today i was browsing and readinding one mobile news web, and they got information, that
google is not very happy with ics, so there is a chance that in this year will come out new
version of Android 5.0 (Jelly bean). Google thinking about integrating Crome OS into Android
and other stuff. Im so confused, developers are working hard to port ics into various googles
forggoten devices, and now, another surprise... Android is not stable anymore, if u buy a new
android phone after few months they are googles forggoten ones...
It'd be only for tablets.

So ICS just got previewed in Hong Kong as part of the Samsung x Google event.. looks really good... how long does it usually take to get a stable rom of a major firmware release up and running?

Stable? Sdk ports won't be stable mate, they might work... But they certainly won't be stable

ICS requirements are still up in the air, and that will dictate what and how much can be ported over.
In the mean time check out the ICS launcher in the market. Google won't let you download it from the market, but you can still get it from the dev website...

Can't wait to get ICS running on Galaxy S I9000...
Google confirms Nexus S will get Ice Cream Sandwich -- for real this time (Gingerbread devices, too)
Okay, so we've already seen Ice Cream Sandwich running on the Nexus S, but that was decidedly... unofficial. We've just heard straight from Google's Gabe Cohen that the Nexus S will definitely be getting ICS. In fact, both he and Matias Duarte think most Gingerbread devices will see an upgrade, saying: "Currently in the process for releasing Ice Cream Sandwich for Nexus S. Theoretically should work for any 2.3 device." It's hardly a surprise and there's no specific word on timing just yet, but hopefully it won't take long to move that vanilla Android device up to something with a breaded exterior.
see in Engadget...
I just read @ android central that Google is in the process of getting ICS ready for the Nexus s. Our I9000 would be certainly capable of handling it but without the bootloader,kernel or drivers all we would have is a test rom.
Let's hope Sammy gives us a sweet farewell with one last os upgrade.

I will expect one (at least beta stage) before Christmas, otherwise I will have a galaxy nexus for my Christmas present.
Won't the next version of cyanogen be built on ICS?
Well in theory we now have confirmation that our hardware can handle ICS no problem. Beyond that, be it through Samsung, a clever dev or Cyanogen, ICS will be hitting the GS. Sooner than most might think.

cynagenmod would be sweet if they bake icecream sandwich into to it.

ICS 4.0 confirmed for all phones that are Gingerbread compatible
so it'll be just a matter of time
So apparently Android 5 is coming in q2, before lg even gets ics out. I knew this would be the case with this phone, we might get ICS but that glory will only last a couple of months. I would have got the google phone if they just put a damn SD card in there.
Reminds me of this cartoon.
lol @ cartoon
Says it isn't for phones though. Also, original source is digitimes which is a bit pants.
Well to be fair google are pretty fast at rolling out these OS's, they release the sources to carriers ect to make their roms then by the time the carriers have rolled out an update google are talking of releasing a new version, they cant win really and it also says jellybean is mainly if not exclusively for tablets so use your brain and quit whining.
Jellybean is only for tablets! It's like honeycomb
Why would they make a seperate version for tablets since they brought out ICS to combine the smartphoneversion with the tabletversion?

Agree. Every second version can't be called something with sandwich. Would be kinda stupid.
As it seems to be a dual boot system Android/Chrome, it's certainly more convenient for tablets.. But too soon to say, June is in 4 months.
Its for tablets and smartphones, the new nexus will come out this summer with 5,0..

Yes its dualboot, it can be booted with the new Windows 8

and what other than nexus have official ICS? its not the phone but google ho is relising new OS every half of the year! Nexus S still dose not have ICS in canada so the nexus s is bad to?
Win8/Android dual boot would be really sweet!
Actually we don't really bother about when the official update arrives... Never looked back once a person flashes a custom rom
If we get the official update earlier, it is way more easy to build a fully functioning custom rom
this Q is for the developers who work so hard to keep this phone alive....
Our phone yet doesnot have working JB (project butter not working..i have seen nAa's post about it)..you think it can support key lime pie with its full features?
Thread cleaned, just give a normal answer, else don't post anything.
Next time infractions will be hand out!
@OP
maybe if it's andoid 4.2 (nothing but improvements over jelly bean). if, however, it is 5.0 then it'll be hard to get it working.
hope you understand.

Since Sony released nothing really and the lack of some hardware it will never have true Jelly Bean. This is the same for updates beyond that.
So no full key lime pie experience. But there might be a close-to-KLP experience. Just wait and see.

Agreed.
If KLM turns out to be 5.0, then i seriously doubt our phones can handle it. But if it's the same as jb is to ics, then it's possible that we can have a "limited" version of it. Pretty much like the jb roms we have now.

ok thanks......
pressed thanks for all
i think it is supposed to be 4.2
4.2 is supposed to be a minor update to Jellybean, sources say. So im guessing KLP wont be anytime soon.

KLP is to come by end of october some say with the new nexus series
We don't know nothing about KLP yet. What we have heard are just rumors, most of them proved to be a hoax. Who knows, maybe it is really a small upgrade to Jelly Bean, but, as we have seen, with every Android update, our phone is getting more and more "vulnerable".
Explain?
Why does it get more vulnerable?

Right... Not the best word I've picked.
What I mean is that every new Android version requires more resources and/or better phone specs than the other. Our device is getting older and older by the day. We can't expect it to run every new Android version perfectly so we shouldn't keep our hopes high. It's a 2010 phone for God's sake

Yeah i think the x8 is not able to handle the new version with good performance!
I was wondering if any one on the Samsung official ICE Rom (4.0.4) received the new Google maps with the streamlined UI. Google play says it'll be rolled out to all 4.0.3+ devices, but I don't see an update on mine.
Furthermore, when I switch to unofficial AOKP Rom (jelly bean), I do get the update, but then the map keeps stalling and crashing.
I am beginning to fear that this is another instance of the limitations of tegra2, especially the lack of NEON, but I'm no developer and was hoping others more knowledgeable would be able to help us.
The new Google maps, especially for tablets, is really sleek, and it'd be tragic not to be able to update to it. I am for the first time in a long while seriously thinking about jumping ship cause of this.

Many thanks! Good news to hear. I went over to the unofficial AOKP, but glad to know I can go back to Samsung stock Rom when needed, and not worry about missing Google maps 7.0 !

Cyanogen is not the stock Google experience.
Asus is much closer to stock than CM. Anyway CM is out for you to try
