Nothing on my 10.1 tab yet, but I did get the ICS update for my Galaxy SII last night when I connectted by Kies.

I'm in Regina, SK

Rob
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] kallt_kaffe:
I believe that is the only Canadian ICS release on KIES that has been released so far: http://twitter.com/#!/SamKiesUpdates
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] komorka:
where did everyone see Samsung claim to release an ICS update for GTab 10.1 on 3 May?

All I see is "the following devices are eligible... blahblahblah".

I wouldn't be surprised updates will be delivered in that order.

:-P
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] s2droid:
quick question about upgrading a rooted device to ICS.

I'm still on the stock 2.3.3 bell rom; its CF rooted, and unlocked. To update, do I just connect to kies and update it? I assume this is going to work, and all I have to do is root it / unlock it again?

Also, I keep seeing people mention about flashing modems and etc. Is that something I should look into as well? or does that come with Bell's ICS update already?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] vandal4e:
Samsung Canada ‏ @samsungcanada

@yves_199 We released ICS for Bell customers using SGII yesterday. Roll-outs will be happening for other devices over the next 2 months.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] ROB281:
Time to re root, and go back to task 14
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] corei7qm:
Please Guys, many people are watching this thread for news about

The ICS update for the 10.1,

NOT the Galaxy Sll,

There is a big forum for the SGSll, and there are much more Users, who know VERY good about this phones, as we are

I beg you guys, PLEASE keep this thread clear for the 10.1!!!!

greets
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] vandal4e:
this is an exact answer directly what to expect , meaning end of Q2!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] mhammerstone:
No kidding, loading ODIN now.....
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] jonnyg1097:
I am probably going to give them till the end of the weekend till I flash back to a rom and then I wont flash back to stock until someone reports that they got the update.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] cliff_dangers:
Have you tried going to tools/trouble shoot connection error? After KIES resently upgraded I was unable to connect but this fixed it.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] afuhnk:
Yes. Multiple times.

Anyway, I re-rooted, re-pershooted and re-AdFree'd and will keep it like that until we get a release confirmation.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] manachinu:
Does anyone know when Rogers is planning to release ICS update to Tab 10.1...or where can I get more info ...Thanks
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Just_Another_N00b:
Join the club. None of us know for sure, and if you have followed related threads, you will notice that info is hard to find, and mostly based on guesswork and rumours. So prepare for a bumpy ride and don't hold your breath too long.

It will come, but whether the P7500 (3G version) is included is another matter for discussion. My gut-feelings tells me no, so if you have a 3G+Wi-Fi one... :confused:
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] manachinu:
I called up rogers but they dont even know when it is coming out...So far happy with KANG ICS build 31...does the job well.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Towle:
Anyone have any info on the system dump of the Canadian ICS leak? Send me a PM :) it'll be our little secret ;)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] hanspampel:
I think you will read it here first.;)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] mr_at_sgs:
@manachinu: Yes, unless you add resized wigdets to your homescreen. There are several graphical issues with ui you simply cannot forget.

Sometimes browsers shows only a blank white page ... and so on. Chrome is running like crap on gtab cm9 compared with sgs2 on cm9.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] himmatsj:
What's so great about ICS that can change the miserable fate of our tablets especially the mother-of-God lag that presides within it? Will it bring the tab closer to the performances of the Apple iPad?

I like my Tab for many reasons, but using my dad's iPad 2 feels like an otherworldly experience. Scrolling, typing, zooming, browsing and gaming is incredibly lag free on the iPad. The absence/presence of lag is an important factor in maintaining a great user experience. This is one area which Android falls short on, unfortunately.

I'm looking to see what exactly ICS can do for our Tabs. Mind you, the iPad 2 is older than our Tab yet it can run circles in terms of performance even over the Transformer Prime.

Those who already have ICS on your devices (ROMs obviously) might want to share your experience till we get the real thing on our devices. I'm from Malaysia btw, so I don't know how much longer must I wait after you Canadians get it ;)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] xdapao3:
I have a G.Tab 10.1 3G (I am typing this reply on it BTW), I am running KANG ICS since last January but I am waiting Samsung's ICS because (besides having working cameras) I do like and use most Samsung's added apps, services and customizations.

How does ICS do on the G.Tab compared to HC? Well, it's so much better that I am gladily trading working cameras and Samsung's software for its speed and stability.

How is it compared to an iPad? My brother has an iPad2 and I have tried it extensively before buying myself a tablet and I hate iOS with a passion, it's simply frustratingly LIMITED compared to HC and ICS, at least for how I use a tablet.

That said, the iPad2 has TODAY (...) more dedicated apps and it's still smoother overall than my G.Tab running KANG ICS BUT its marginal advantage in responsiveness doesn't even come close, for me, to closing the huge gap in functionality and User Interface's design, usefulness and pleasantness of use of ICS.

Last but not least, the iPad2 (not to mention the iPad3 which is even worse) is one of the heaviest tablets around whereas the G.Tab is one of the lightest and that, for a device which may be held for long times with probably one hand only, is not something to be underestimated.

Also, but that's a matter of personal preferences, I STRONGLY dislike the feel in hand of metal backs, I MUCH prefer good quality plastic.

To me, it's a no contest really.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] pampyre:
This is rather off topic but, as I browse this thread on my tab10.1/chrome, I feel it only fair to counter this statement. For me, currently running a cm9 nightly (5/5/12), I find chrome to be significantly better than the stock browser in hc or ics. Its smooth and sleek and I very rarely get any errors or issues at all. It's fantastic imo.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] marjoejoejoe:
why don't you just try it yourself buddy, your evaluation is very subjective and you obviously have not tried out ICS (Kang builds or CM9) for the tab.

If you like to keep things stock, then you will have to wait, i have an asian tab 10.1 as well from taipei, and i have to wait as well, in the mean time, if i want an ICS experience ill have to use KANGS and CM9 , without the camera...

having said that, using Honeycomb with a custom ROM is a much more satisfying experience than using the IPad 2, and i have the Ipad 2 as well.

stick around and try things out before making a statement about ICS or the tab 10.1 for that matter

oh, and why should it bring the tab closer to the performance of the Ipad? the benchmark for performance isn't Ipad at all....
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] himmatsj:
Hey man, that's why I asked for the experiences of those who've had the privilege to use an ICS ROM. Mind you, I'd choose the Gtab over an iPad 2 on any day, but I was merely objectively trying to compare the pro's of the iPad against the cons of the Gtab - lag!

Btw benckmarks mean nothing OK. Well, it does it you're trying to compare apple's to apple's (android and android tablets) but if you're trying to compare apple's w/ orange's (Android vs iPad), you're out of luck.

PS: May I know if there's truth to claims that stock Honeycomb runs better than the touchwizzed Honeycomb we have on our 10.1? Is the performance difference apparent? Is there lesser lag with a stock Honeycomb ROM on our Tab?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] ginryu:
The stock rom on our tabs sucks that is for sure but developers like task650, jamison904 or pershoot do some amazing things to give real hc experience on our tabs.

Try one of their roms and pershoot kernel and you will see a little to non lag I can guarantee that.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] mr_at_sgs:
It's related to ICS but far ... please open androidpolice.com with chrome and see your self ...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] marjoejoejoe:
The best answer is to try and experience a custom rom over stock....tons of stuff here to choose from...

Ics out of the box is already fantastic and so much more when devs here maximize it

Touchwiz is a sensitive issue..some people like it some dont...some say there is lag some say none.....depends on you really, my take on it is that

Touchwiz grows on you, then you change it after a while......then you go back again......
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] duardito:
woowww, this has stopped, I would like to know what samsung is doing. :confused:
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] pngface:
- Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 upgrade to 4.01 is expected Mid June

(Telus 3g version)

http://mobilesyrup.com/2012/05/08/telus-posts-upcoming-device-os-upgrade-schedule-online/

I'm hoping the Wifi version is updated wayyy before that..
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] bertiespeed:
They said in the ''coming weeks''.

So there's still 30 some odd weeks left in this year . hopefully no one plans on holder their breath to long cause they might pass out lol

When its release you can bet these forums will be flooded.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Just_Another_N00b:
So that would be the P7500, which means it will be included in the upgrade, and not just the P7510? Very good news indeed!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Matrix_19:
Thank you for the link,

At least, now, I can stop looking for an update every day
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] sKiNz-PouNdeR:
What pisses me off the most about this update, for at least the Tab 10.1, is that the new, minutely upgraded Tab2 10.1 hits the stores at the end of this week with ICS pre-installed on it. Yet, current 10.1 users have to sit, for at least a month, waiting for an update their Tabs to ICS. WTF?

The Tab 2 obviously is releasing with a stable ICS build on it so....
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] jaaka78:
The Tab 2 has a completely different chipset (TI OMAP vs Tegra 2). I'm not saying that the update shouldn't be out yet, but the logic that they got it working on one so it should be ready on the other doesn't hold up.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] sKiNz-PouNdeR:
Sorry, from what I read, I thought it was using the exact same Tegra 2 Processor?

Edit: Ah Yes.. you are right.. my bad!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] vsniperii:
Actually i dont really see why the chipset should be that big of an issue, seeing as other devices using the tegra2 have ics for sometime (asus transformer anyone).. So its compatability isnt the problem. They just dont care to release it for older devices as they rather sell newer ones and get people to upgrade...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Mobile_Jedi:
I give it another month for ics or i will put this tab on CL and buy a transformer prime...it aint even the need for ics thats killing me...its the need to fix the damn lag on this tab....

Sent for my vigorous rezound
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] ginryu:
have you tried to install task650, jamison904 or scrosler roms?? you will never have a lag at least with task's, jamison is pretty good but it needs work some work to be perfect and haven't tried scrosler so. just take a look on the development section. a little overclock with pershoot's kernel will help you out to!!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] himmatsj:
To be honest, Samsung is the one who should be responsible in getting updates out, and not us going round flashing ROMs. You know, not everyone has as much free time as you. For the uninitiated, rooting and then flashing can take many many hours.

But yes, the beauty about Android is that we can use ROMs. But still, it shouldn't be used as an argument in this case.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] ginryu:
It takes a little time as you just install cwm (5 mins) and flash the rom from cwm (10 mins) downloading the rom it's the hardest part.

And it can be an argument because Samsung it's one of the fastest company's to release sources and as you know this is the key for our developers to succeed.

If you don't have time to flash or don't want to just get an Ipad as every average user will find something to complain about android no matter the version. Xda gives us the best out of our devices.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] slack04:
If you're not flashing ROMs, what are you doing on XDA? There are plenty of android enthusiast sites out there. XDA is--and has always been--for the modding community.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] GorillaPimp:
The learning curve for n00bs is the hardest part and takes longer than 15 minutes for most. It can be an argument but it doesnt make it a valid one for most users.

Samsung really did a bad job on the OS on this unit. The default user experience on my gs2 is totally different. If unpaid guys can make things like Overcome then huge corporations like Samsung can too. I like my tab but Samsung is a **** company. After spending a lot of money on Apple and Samsung products on Apple would get my money again. Samsung cuts corners and screws customers.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] ali magdy:
I agree with you.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] ginryu:
Yeah I know Samsung and apple and most of the big companies are sh*** my point is don't like it don't buy it and to be honest the main problem is hc that is nothing compared to gb and with all the things Samsung loads man.

And well Samsung is not the only company that is holding back the ics update, the devices who got it first are the vanilla ones and as I suppose we all think they are waiting for their main course to make some profit before giving us more juice to what we already have. Being really optimistic maybe the new out of the box devices with ics are a beta to see if it is ready to release on the previous devices lol :D

This is my last off topic comment I promise.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] daniel_fm:
Point is that many people not so luck who buy a tablet don't know sh*t about modding or root and don't want to know either and stock software with this tablet has been sh*t (at least for 3g, my model) with no updates at all to fix it's many glitches and problems.

People who have paid 500€+ deserve better. If Samsung believes delaying ics will get people to upgrade to new hardware.. well, they are losing clients on the way to that.

Luckily for me I know enough to mod my tablet, but how about others? = Samsung giving a cheap image & losing clients. Will I buy another tablet from them when this one breaks? Probably not.

Sounds like they are not managing the updates/marketing thing correctly, imo.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Ostrich Egg:
Sorry bro, but after taking a quick look at your post history, if you've got time to play tablet games you've got time to screw around with flashing.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] owgees:
Lol, this is actually a very good point :D
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Milkman00:
I am absolutely disgusted with Samsung software releases as well. It is a shame that their hardware is soooo good, because if it wasn't for that fact, I would have jumped ship a long time ago to another device. Keep in mind I am not only talking about the Galaxy Tab, I also have the Samsung Epic 4G which has suffered from the same lack of timely software updates.

I would be on a custom ICS ROM if there was camera support, as someone else has said, it is a crying shame that the enthusiasts on this site can tweak the software better than the friggen developers. I actually don't blame the developers. The problem probably is that Samsung doesn't allocate the developers enough time to do such things.

I say again, when someone comes out with some better hardware, I look forward to giving THEM my money.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] t1mman:
A lot of people here mistakes XDA for Samsung's official whining forum...

I think they don't understand what "developers" means...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] duardito:
developer = underpaid professional. :D
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] himmatsj:
That's my point....for first time rooters, it'd take much longer.

Anyways, I have my finals soon, so I am not going to toy around. But based on my experience in a few threads in XDA and Android Central, rooting my device is something I am going to have to do.

Anyways, I stand by my claims that Samsung is to be blamed for the ICS mess we are in with our Tabs (the unrooted users of course).
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Just_Another_N00b:
So why are Samsung even underpaying their developers? What does that make them? Dancing to the music of Marketing?

But the moment all functionality of ICS is supported on SGT, quite a number of people (myself included) will jump ship and go for a solid and trustworthy alternative ROM. I have played around on the HC mods, but I would like to have all ICS extras. So we all will be waiting anxiously on the release of the sources/drivers.

Keep up the perfect XDA-work guys! I am one fervent fan... :)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] t1mman:
You realy don't get the joke do you?

Underpaid as "they don't work for samsung so they don't get paid by them"
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Just_Another_N00b:
Thanks for the unneeded flame...

Got the joke, and added another one, as Samsung must have (I hope) developers on staff of their own to get the product out, and they are really, really slow. So their motivation must be aligned with Marketing of Samsung themselves.

i.e. Mole Asses.

I have been a developer+ (almost all prog. languages) myself for about 40 years.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] duardito:
yes, I was joking.... :p

I don't want to flame nothing, just saying I am a developer underpayed, that's all.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] jonnyg1097:
So I just read this from the Samsung Mobile Canada feed on Facebook:

We wanted to give all of our passionate fans an update on Ice Cream Sandwich (Android 4.0). We've gotten lots of inquiries about what devices will be eligible, and when updates will become available. While we don't have specific dates to share yet, we can tell you that the following GALAXY devices will be receiving the update: GALAXY S II, GALAXY S II LTE, GALAXY S II LTE HD, GALAXY S II X, GALAXY Note, GALAXY Tab 7.0, GALAXY Tab 7.0 Plus, GALAXY Tab 8.9, and GALAXY Tab 10.1. Roll-outs of Ice Cream Sandwich for those GALAXY devices will be happening over the coming weeks and months so keep watching this space for the most up-to-date ICS news. Thank you all for your patience, passion, and loyalty!

So it IS coming but it is just a matter of it being a waiting game now.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Jay Rock:
Weeks or months. I'll have an Asus Transformer by then lol.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] bertiespeed:
Unfortunatley Nothing we dident already know .

I too will most likely upgrade to something different before we ever see ics on this Samsung product.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Dreameagl:
That's it....Task Rom for me. I might go back to stock once they decide to release ICS.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Wheeler711:
Deer Samsung,

Enough is enough....Truly....someone whos galaxy tabs about to get tossed in the dumpster.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] scoffyburito:
Meh, your all impatient children, not happy with what you have
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Jay Rock:
I'm just not happy with Samsung's bad release date estimates. They themselves claimed ICS by the end of Q1 this year.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] AlwaysLimey:
I am patient, but this is a kick in the nads for me personally. I bought an Acer Iconia A500 last July and while it was decent, it was too heavy and I don't like Honeycomb. (it was however snappier than this gt tab) I sold it and bought a touchpad during the firesale.

The touchpad is running great, both in webOS and ICS. Cost me 99 bucks. I bought this GT in January with the thinking that because it is the best selling Android tab on the market, it will get treated well. **** me if that Acer isn't getting better support than this Samsung. :-( Never again Samsung, never again. You have blown a customer. Not that they care or anything.

---------- Post added at 03:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:19 AM ----------

Also, I would have shot myself this time last year for saying this, but I think my next tablet will be the iPad 4. This nonsense of updates for different units, at different times..depending on carrier..you may get updates or not, soon or later or never, maybe so, or not....is getting old. Google and Android better get their **** together right quick...I hate Apple, but this crap is draining.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] scoffyburito:
And you believed Samsung why? :D
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] jutley:
Samsung if you reading this shame on you took our money and ran ditched us like some dog meat and we are not happy about that learn to respect your customers after all it is us who have made you where you are today without us you would be nothing remember that I hate you so much Samsung.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] xdapao3:
Pure nonsense!

I hate iOS with a passion (and I dislike the iPad's hardware as well: way too heavy, metal back, no GPS on the wi-fi version), WHY SHOULD I CARE ABOUT THE FREQUENCY OF THEIR UPDATES???

I too am pissed about Samsung's delay in getting ICS on my G.Tab 10.1 but I can't see how in the blue hell that could be a reason to switch OS...

BTW, on my previous Galaxy S and SII and my present Note I have been pretty happy with Samsung support and updates, the reason I am pissed at them with the G.Tab is that the stock Honeycomb is crap and they should have hurried to get ICS on the tab to make it actually functioning!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] duardito:
[ironic on]

weeks or months ..... great estimated release date :D

[ironic off]
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] t1mman:
Again, if you want to contact samsung, CONTACT SAMSUNG... this site is not related to samsung, it is a freaking devlopers's forum.

What a bunch of winney crying brat you are...17 pages of useless crap, whining nonesense... of cry-babyes menacing to sell the tab and get what-not. JUST SELL IT ALREADY!

You want ICS on the GTab? Get a freaking custom rom and be done with it... This is absurd...
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Cyb3rGlitch:
The ICS update is coming soon. I know a guy who works on Samsung's ROMs, and he told me "It's coming soon I swear".

I guess that's open to interpretation, but this guy is reliable, so at least we know Samsung is doing something. My guess is that it's still being tested, but otherwise complete.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Kryspy:
I am still waiting for the free Windows 7 upgrade on my Vista laptop.

Kryspy
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Ahazu:
In my case, I am quietly waiting for the release of the ICS update for our devices.

Well, I found that there is life outside samsung where developers here create, modify and improve the stock ROM. I'm using my tablet with Overcome ROM wich is fast and stable. But I wonder the average joe that ignores everything we know, where they use the stock rom slow and buggy.

But I think it wrong, we spend a lot of money in our tablets and the minimum we can receive is to have harmony in their performance (which is kind of true, you can use the stock rom as well, but ....)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Jay Rock:
Because the only other Samsung product I have is a Gravity T. I didn't know Samsung was this way. I would have gotten another tablet over this one if I had known.
