2.3.7 was out on September 20 -- why nothing about it here? Anyone tried it already?
P.S. I am not happy with my 2.3.4, XXJVP at all. It hangs, com.adroid.phone keeps crashing, phone is not much responsive and it all gets only worse and worse over the time. Now I am thinking, should I look towards 2.3.7 or should I wait until 4.0 comes? However, I guess 4.0 will come to I9000 with a significant delay, right?
Why not try 2.3.5?

Source? Imho 2.3.5 for I9000 is the latest available version - even for the nexus, just 2.3.6 is available...

btw, I didn't say 2.3.7 for I9000. Here is the German article mentioned from German wikipedia about Android:
http://www.appdated.de/2011/09/nexus-s-4g-bekommt-android-2-3-7-update-fur-google-wallet/
Then it comes down to this promo video:

I can't find more details to be honest
CM7 is 2.3.7. coz is build from nexus sources ... and i thing there is nothing extra for i9000 users ... we dont have NFC chip ....

btw, what about "No tethering" bug / feature in this 2.3.7 ?
These updates hardly matter.We already have few ROMs of 2.3.5
Now we want ICS....and our device is very capable of running it

I don't build any illusions regarding Samsung's official releases. They are rather out of scope until Summer 2012 ;-) No joke, SAMSUNG sux big big big time on rolling out updates.
My concern are ROMs that are created by community heros. When'd you expect such?

I agree to some of your point but telling that samsung sucks in update is incorrect.Galaxy S has got updates more frequenty than any other android phone.We already have 2.3.5 leaked stock firmware and in comming days u will some 2.3.6 updates as well.Comming to other brands,take example of htc,they are still on 2.3.4.Motorola donot give more than 1 update to phones and forget about LG(they think that customers must be deprived of updated,so that they can ultimatly sell thier mobile industry)

I think we will have to use CM7 to get a taste of 2.3.7...
OK, and what are your bets about availability date for ICS on I9000 ?
(unofficially of course, there is no much sense to discuss official one)
UPDATE: OK, I'll try CM7 with its 2.3.7 and that's it. It will probably heal my SGS for next months ...or will brick it
After being hesitant for a while ( losing the whole samsung apps/feel ) ive finally made the jump to CM7. I must say its really stable and smooth, its packed with lots of options and tweaks .. so far im simply loving it. I think my search for the best custom ROM is done .
Btw, Cyanogen mod 7.1 is out for the i9000, which is considered as the first "stable" version to run on the i9000.
Also, im pretty sure cyanogen will get us ICS way before Samsung does.
I cannot really bet but after Nexus s recived ICS then it will hardly take 15-30 days for devlopers to port ICS to galaxy s because both nexus s and galaxy s is running same hardware except camera chip.

Well from what I understand, manufacturers are not required to release android updates to devices which are older than 18months. Anyone know the exact launch date of the sgs? So I guess it depends what the age of the sgs is by the time ICS is released. Even if we don't get the official ICS, I'm not so sure whether we will get it through cyanogen due to the sgs ram limitation. From 2.1 to 2.3 the average amount of free ram on the sgs has come down quite a lot, to a point where through average use you can end up in a situation with only 30mb free ram (depending on your rom and kernel and what apps and Widgets you use) after a days use. ICS will obviously have even higher memory demands than gingerbread, so the ICS experience on a sgs if it is provided unnofically by cyangoen may not be very smooth and user friendly.
That's just my opinion though, I'm no expert! And obviously I'd love for us to get ICS on the sgs

The most stable version I experienced till now is XXJPY. I'm using it for more than 2 months with no problem.
I guess the only way I'll ever use the new version will be through a ROM, probably same for many other people in here.

I tried imilka's ROM (v06) as I want AOSP, but after a few days I decided to go back to stock until it is based on a genuine GT-N7000 image. Just a slight bit too flaky for me.

I am on ICS Stunner v4.3 now. Better than imilka's AOSP. Highly recommended!
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA
The best rom for me is ICS Stunner 4.3. I noticed a few problems while using double twist but other than that its amazing and not battery consumer. I can last 16-18 hours with moderate whatsapp use and surfing
+1 for Stunner.
There's 3 types of roms:
A) Stock Rom (aka OEM's ROM) - the rom that's shipped with the device.
B) Custom Rom (ie/ "in between roms") - these are like VillianROMs, they're OEM based roms but altered by a 3rd-party developer (eg xda) for the *better*
C) AOSP Rom (ie/ based on Google's Source Code) - examples are AOSP, AOKP, CyanogenMod, MIUI.
For any new device, you always get access to A-type roms first, then B-type, then C-typer...understood?
For me, C > B > A in-terms of overall experience (as long as they offer you the features you want and are stable).
And in terms of C-type roms; MIUI > CM9 = AOKP > AOSP.
...other important points, use your favourite launcher with any rom, have all primary apps inverted (white -> black background), use a dark theme and replace the cyan detailing with a crimson one*.
So what's the best (imho) right now: neobuddy's ICS-Stunner v4.3
It's nearly 100% perfect. The only problems is a little stability issues (rare), no Super-optimized kernel (one that clocks higher while saving battery), and no support for the S-Pen.
Otherwise: maxicet's MidNote v3.1
It's not as fluid as ICS Stunner, doesn't have the AOKP options, but its decent daily driver and the S Pen works.
*Not the best example, but this red theme would save you lots of battery life, especially on a AMOLED screen:

Yes.
There already is one or two beta's. I'd advise against those at this stage. The CMT will likely support the AT&T version. They will also (officially)support the international version but that would be in 6 months time from now. (Just like they did on the i9000).

It's already available, he just hasn't posted it on xda. PM him if you want a copy or just wait a couple hours for his OpeningPost to change. Its normally just updating the system/apps to the latest with a little bug fixes and going back to ext4 (which should make things even smoother).

Take a look at Imilka's CM9 ROM in the dev section. Running it right now and it is awesome.
the s pen apps for ICS such as quill and super note are good alternatives to s pen?
Im thinking about upgrading to ics
Okay guys I know alot of people ask this but im new to this version of the Galaxy Note....I Started with an Epic 4gt and Move to the ATT version of the Note and went to the HTC one X...now im back on the Note with this Version...So I been reading and gaining my knowlegde up and wanted to know which roms yall thinks is best....Thanks in advance for any replies...

As much as I love CM9 and AOKP from my Captivate days, at this moment in time, I cannot recommend them over "regular" ICS Roms.
Performance from my most recent test is still behind ICS not to mention missing features like MHL.
I currently prefer this:

As soon as CM9/AOKP gets there, then I am of course moving to those as I expect them to be just as good as they were on my Captivate

I prefer the paranoid android rom. It's the best thing that I have ever run on my note.
if you like the stock Gingerbread launcher then stock ICS for the note is great for you.
ofcoarse you can put different launchers i had Apex on the UK ICS release and it was very awsome but.. not as smooth as how Apex runs on CM9
And if you use the SPen functionality which i really..as hard as i want i cant really see my self in using theres an app that functions very much the same as SMemo..
is just called memo just check the Themes and Apps section.
it is pen sensitive is amazing..as good as the SMemo so really..no more missing that extra 1% functionality
also another reason why cm9 is that much better is that...
4.0.4 as oppose to Samsungs 4.0.3
i cant recommend enough..
but make sure if you're coming to either one stock or custom i recommend
for stock UK ICS
and custom CM9
make sure to follow the instructions for installing CM9 ..as you need to revert to a rootable GB rom (2.3.5) and root from there and install CM9 from there..
so read read and..after that read more the install instructions
OP, I don't think you've given us a shred of info about what would make a good ROM for you.

I was on almost-stock GB for a long time and never really used S Memo.
For me, the S-Pen is a great tool for illustration, but to take quick notes I still much prefer to type everything instead.
As such, CM9 and any of its derivatives for me (currently Paranoid Android).
Have to agree, tried all kinds of roms gb and ics, stock to modded, but the best thing I have come across is paranoid android.

Paranoid Android will always top the chart for me
I love the smoothness in Tablet mode! While accessing Citrix from Tablet mode, everything seems to be in place and perfect zoom! Whilst on phone mode I struggle to read my applications..

I'm currently running KingDroid. This has the new Touchwiz 5.0/SIII look, which in my opinion is much better looking than the old.
The KingDroid also got all of the S Memo/ S Planner apps.

Please suggest me the right ROM for better battery performance and ICS looks......Thanks in Advance!!
First of all this isnt the right placeto post this. Go and post it in ace forums. That is all i have to say
Sent from Hell!!
1.) there will never be an Official update to 404 or 411
2.) unofficial CM9 and CM10 are on its way, but are still extremely unstable and/or buggy. so if you NEED (and i mean really need, not playing around) your phone i do not recommend those to you. if you dont really need your phone (business, etc) and want to have the latest 411 rom, you are free to try them, but beware of some bugs (cam/video, video/youtube, sometimes random reboots and no mobile internet,.....)
Go to SGA Android Development section and look for it.There are a lot of roms which are ICS themed...

for now its better if you stick to cm7 based roms... these are stable and almost bug free.. however if you choose cm9 or cm10 you'll have to face daily troubles.. i've tried almost 10 cm9/cm10 based roms but switched back to cm7 as cm9/cm10 are very buggy + unstable !!
press thanks if i helped !!!
Keep calm and wait because our fellow developers are working for us totally free spending their spare time. Not even Samsung, that we've paied, is working to bring us a brand new version of Android. I hope like you to run a CM 9/10/whatever fully working rom as soon as possible but annoying them will not make things going faster.

I'm looking for ROM without any unnecessary widgets such like weather or other. I wanna basic ROM with excelent performance so I could use smoothly SwiftKey 4, facebook messenger and play music. So far CM 7.1 touchviz v5 was great but something happend and it just slowed down.
Do you know any ROM what can meet my expectations?

- Galaxy S2 ROM
- CM 10.1/7.1/9.2
- JB 4.2
- Apocalypse
- ICE Cream
- KitKat
- Pacman
and few others which I can't remember.
You can try SpaceCaker's AOSP 2.3.7. Very fast but data and mass storage connection to PC not working. Give it a try though

The fastest roms for ace are on GB base. Cm9 & 10 are much slower. Maybe you want to try out The Ultimatum from The A Factor. Great rom and great performance (CM7).

In my opinion, stock GB ROMs are the fastest. CM7.2 is pretty fast as well. Any GB ROM with the right kernel should do
