I bought galaxy note because of ICS update in Q1... never more korea

Next time nexus
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] mfractal:
Just sell it and buy a nexus then. What's the problem? Isn't getting a polished release a bit later better than some half assed attempt like they released for the SII?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ErionT:
I still don't understand people buying a Note because of ICS update in Q1. You can very well buy a Nexus now, selling the Note, or you could have bought a Nexus with ICS when you bought the Note.

I don't believe it is the right thing to do to call Samsung liars because Note doesn't have ICS yet. What are these people going to say when Note will actually get the update??

A Note is a Note with or without ICS. It will come soon..

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] :
As frustrating as the waiting is getting, I'm not sure if I'm blaming Samsung for it. ICS has has a painfully slow rollout, with only 2-3% of current Android devices sporting it officially almost 6 months after release. It's not just Samsung, so there's a big chance you can point the finger at Google for this one.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] nessqn:
Whats the point in wasting each minute thinking about ICS when the GB Note has so much to offer now?Let ICS come when its ready...till then enjoy the present Note...well,thats how i feel about this :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] darkinners:
Just read in Official Samsung Hong Kong facebook page, they said Galaxy Note ICS update will roll out in May, 2 months to go:(

as usual, Europe should get it the same time if not earlier (my guess)

original post

translate:

"Samsung Mobile Hong Kong

Galaxy Note has been well received since the day it launched and now the most anticipating ICS update will be arrived in May!"

p.s it's quite funny to read Samsung Mobile Hong Kong facebook page, every single comment in their post are all rage complaint. Recently the hottest complaint is Galaxy S2 ICS update, many users reporting system freeze, battery drain and stuffs.

let's hope our Galaxy Note update will be better :/ keep our fingercrossed
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] razorhanny:
People are update sick, you still didn't get it? :cool:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] :
It's understandable given all the ICS performance and interface hype. It was rushed out almost half a year ago and we're still waiting? And face it, GB on the Note is not "just fine" , hell even opening my Contacts takes 2 seconds, with the pictures stil not loaded, making my old HD2 feel like a speed deamon. And there are plenty other lags.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] anonymous572:
I can't agree with you. ICS must be in Q1, as samsung promised. If they don't have time to do it in the first quarter they are required to employ 200-300 additional personnel to accelerate the work.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Hmtsjmftsch:
You really think developing something is a numbers game?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] damador:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] muhtesem insan:
these things happen. It's dissapointing but adding 200 additional personel would probably lengthen the time to develop the update.

Yes, but remember that developers here don't have to go thru the same verification processes that the manufacturers must with these things.

Why doesn't Samsung release ICS first and later premium suite as an update?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] superfuffo:
Whiners...

Wow ... so many whiners in here...

Why do you keep complaining about Samsung not keeping their promises and keep buying from them?

It reminds me of the good ol' HTC HD2's days... when HTC said it would no longer port Windows Phone 7 to that device... Everybody kept whining.. even though their device worked perfectly with the firmware provided (and later with android). And probably many upgraded to another HTC device!

ICS will come when it's ready.. I don't think Samsung likes not to keep the promised date of release.

I'd rather wait for the firmware to be complete and working good (maybe listening to their customers' advices on how to improve TouchWiz... anybody said "Lower-DPI-friendly??? :P)

A newer leak would be nice, but stop being kids about this !!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] KSauzeRK:
Don't want to sound like a like a lesson giver, but moral of the story is : never buy a product based on what it may do in the future, buy it based on what it can do as it is when you buy it...Although personaly I think ICS will eventually come out one day on our beloved device, and I'm not in the hurry.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Opperhoofd:
For those whining Note users. You can think another brand is better, but it can also be like Samsung. HTC for example. They launched the Flyer last year (june) and promised Honeycomb "Soon after launch". In october first beta leaks appeared and in december they officially launched Honeycomb.

I've learnt to buy a device of "what it currently is" instead of "what it may become told by the sales department".

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] senectus:
I very much doubt that Samsung care at all about the so called "bad press" surrounding ICS leaks.

Only the select few nerdy/geeky/power users know anything about that.

Samsung care about the mass market not the bleeding edge device hackers.

It'll be more about the fact that they have focused dev on the model that had greatest market penetration (and is still selling very well) and also happens to be very similar in spec to the G note, and once that is settled and the G note has had it's big market release in the US they can justify the resource diversion to the niche product the G note.

The G note isn't their flagship the nexus is. However the G note is a market leader for them in several areas, so it won't be ignored.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Hasseno:
and here i thought that the galaxy SII is the flagship for samsung.

It is clearly evident, based on the amount of advertisments, as well as the zeal and drive, that the SII is what the company is pushing towards the consumer market.

The note is aimed towards a niche market. It is not for everyone.

The nexus is for early adopters. Still not for everyone.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] miwashi:
I was wondering, with ICS installed, would the galaxy note download tablet or phone-specific versions of apps from the market?

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Hitschman:
I'd guess that Official Custom Rom means it's been modified by Samsung with TochWiz and all the other Note specific mods.

From the screenshot it seems to me that they tried to cover up everything that hints a ICS. To the point where it's not much of a visual improvement and just changes in the background.

I wonder if it's already possible to go back to the ICS look (since it's supposed to be mandatory).
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] M.Noury:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ChodTheWacko:
If I recall, the q1 'promise' was an accidental post which was yanked. So that part is bogus.

But I think the reality - it just isn't ready, makes you want to slap the complainers. I think we all know that it has issues on the s2. Samsung could, if they wanted to, just push out that bugged version on to us. But they aren't going to, and they are smart not to.

Do you people really think Samsung is going to force a buggy ics onto everyone who is happily using their notes now? That doesn't benefit them at all.

Before whining about the situation, understand it. The original quoted post, although stiff, is valid. If ics is that important to you, get a phone that has a working version. The rest of us will wait, knowing that when we do get it, our phones will kill whatever you switched to. (imho)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] mcreego:
I agree, I prefer to wait for a good version of ics.

I've received LP3 ics firmware on my SGS2 and belive me, after 2 days of use, I've returned my phone to old good gingerbread because of lags and glitch.

I hope that on Note will be better but I begin to think that ics isn't so special as they want me to think.

On my Sgs( with the porting), Nexus S, and Gs2 I feel it a little bit slower then GB, only on my EeePad Tranformer I've noticed a big improovement.

Just my 2 cents;)

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] gastoncho:
I strongly disagree, we have every right to complain and its in the benefit of us all that we do so. If we kept quiet of our demands we would still be having 3mpx camera and running eclair, because "some" people just like to wait till it's ready when this is clearly not a matter of patience. If Samsung said "you will have ICS the 23rd of April", I would have waited happily till its ready and if i thought that was too long to wait, i would have bought the galaxy nexus.

LEARN TO COMPLAIN WHEN ITS YOUR RIGHT TO DO SO.

which ROM ?

hi all

can anyone recommend which ICE ROM i should use with my new galaxy note ?

i'm looking for stability and camera use but i would prefer ICS to be as stock as possible so a heavily modified rom isn't an option for me unless it's a MUST install for reasons i'm currently not aware of.

any/all comments are welcome.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] wabz:
That's not true. See the following post:

http://developer.samsung.com/develo...eNum=3&orderby=&blogeh=E&sctype=&syear=&stag=

In particular:

"The platform update for GALAXY S II and GALAXY Note will start in the first quarter 2012, and other GALAXY devices will soon follow." and "Samsung will make separate announcements on details of OS updates schedule for each market according to market situation and carriers’ requirements."

They have failed to do either of these things - there have been incorrect posts on various Samsung social media accounts regarding the update. There's not a lot of point in getting super upset - maybe they have extremely good developers and doing this work is just very hard, or the scope for the premium suite changed, or whatever.

But I think this is a larger problem for Android as a whole. As an app developer, developing for Android is quite painful because of this fragmentation.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ChodTheWacko:
There is a difference though, between a constructive complaint and whining. Complaining about something when it just doesn't serve any purpose is, imho, whining.

I love my note, but I've made my fair share of complaints about it since I want the note 2 to be even better.

Oh, and I stand corrected on the q1 announcement. I still don't expect anything till the s2 ics is stable though.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] thegregulator:
I think the list says Bell's Sensation is slated to have ics in June. Also, the Galaxy Note on that list is the i717, not the N7000. If it does get ics in April, before the N7000 receives its update then something is wrong.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] virgopunk:
Just to keep some sort of perspective here I think you need to pity those users who don't know about flashing ROMs etc and have to wait not just for Samsung to release their stable ICS but also have to wait for the telco provider to complete all their necessary testing and adding of their own bloatware before they allow their users access to it.

We might get ICS is May but I bet UK users on Orange, Vodafone, T-Mob etc have to wait another couple of months after that (at least!).

Remember that, as a a group of people unafraid of and capable of flashing ROMS etc, we are in a very privileged position.

We are lucky that there are developers on XDA who provide their time and expertise for free/donation. You can moan all you like and you can ditch Samsung but that's the nature of the smartphone world we live in. 5 million Notes have already been sold globally and the vast majority of them will be used by Joe Schmo without any complaint I would guess.
