Sure would like to see our Skyrocket with its CM10 unofficial nightlies show up in the portal. I quit reading it after the constant S3(add variant here) this, and Nexus(add variant here) that, that seem to show up every single day and fills the pages. Glad those users are getting plenty of relevant info, but geesh! Would love to see Sk8erwitskil, R4ins and TopProspect get some recognition on there. They DESERVE it. A quick google search shows that the rest of the internet has caught on. No love here at home where it all actually happens, though. This is not an attack, but an opinionated observance.

There definitely seems to be a lot of posts popping up within the last few days about Samsung testing it out on the S2.

Hopefully this is actually true, and we will in fact end up getting an official update to JB. :)

That's not CNET. The GS3 update is confirmed, however I doubt the GS2 is. Maybe they're doing the Note and the Skyrocket but hasn't the original been out long enough for them to drop it?

I think you're on the right track, they want us to buy a new phone, but more importantly they want us to sign a new 2 year contract. The thing is, though, that i bought this thing the day it came out and I'm not eligible for an upgrade until June 2013. It's in their best interests to keep me happy until June 2013 so that I'll sign a new 2 year contract and buy a new phone every 18 months, instead of jumping to another carrier after my contract is up.

Ics finally gets here right after the latest Google I/O for JB and its impossible to update to for me. I tried to keep all stock on my girls phone but its completely useless. Can you imagine the bs that official jelly bean is gonna bring when they try to push that over kies too? Its ridiculous. The drivers won't even install on this standard rom for me to install the kies ics on my girls phone.... its driving me jelly beans! For two nights I've tried, til my girl finally said "just hack it" I was so relieved to hear those words! I can't wait to flash project margerine on her phone, the basic rom makes me feel like Samsung and att have jelly beans rattling around in their heads.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] ActionMax09:
Yeah. I came from an iPhone and when I got my Skyrocket i wanted to keep it all stock. Reason why, Android can do so much in its stock firmware and i was familiar with jailbreaking because i did it to any idevice. Therefore i wasnt scared ro root my Skyrocket, i took the step when i read about ICS for the skyrocket and i was in school since before christmas waiting for it and it wouldnt come out. :sly: Later on the leak came out and then once i got that i couldnt help it and i started flashing my phone like crazy. Now the same thing for Jelly Bean. If i wasnt rooted i would probably be waiting for an official release from Samsung that will probably come out in 2013(if we do get one)but since i rooted i probably will have it fully working thanks to our awesome devs next month. :)

God such a true story of my life. I'm even willing to wait for Sean to put out his jb build. I'm so dedicated to his roms that it would just feel wrong to leave it for cm. Plus it seems to me he's letting them work out major kinks and meanwhile taking parts of jb and integrating it into his already fully functional ICS rom. It's awesome.

I was about to flash it but i cant leave the rom i have. I am to dedicated to it that if i went to something else i would feel my phone incomplete. However probably the only way i will stick with Jelly bean as a daily driver is if seanscreams or mohan were to make a rom. I am not familiar with the devs working om a jelly bean build for SR but i bet it is going to ne great and i definetly am going to give it a try. :cool:

Yeah they're going to put jb on our devices officially but keep in mind that the stock versions are going to be real dull in comparison with crap loads of bloatware, and unless Google means what they say about working directly with providers on future builds starting with JB then its not going to be coming around until they "get around to it" meaning not until the next Google I/O for v5-KLP which is rumored to only be for tablet devices.

Which is complete and utter BS. But who cares, right? As long as you encourage your friends to use custom roms and help donate then we could probably see a huge difference once providers realize the potential of hiring our indie-developers to work for them. But I get the feeling that will never happen. Although I really would like to be a fly on that wall when they do analytics for their stock roms vs. the number of sold devices.

In short, nice work devs!

Lol fair enough. I still don't think AT&T is gonna do two major firmware upgrades for our phone though in such a short timeframe, and we JUST got ICS. Just like someone else said, they want us to buy new phones to get the new software. The GS3 just came out, the Gnote 2 is right around the corner, possible new Nexus devices coming soon. It took them close to a year to give us ICS...if we get JB, it will surprise the sh*t out of me. Sammy probably is already building JB updates for phones and ours could be one of them, doesn't mean AT&T is gonna give it to us. Also, if Google shunned their own device with ICS(N1), do you really think them, Sammy or AT&T are gonna care about this one with all the new flagships coming out?

Probably not.

AT&T puts more publicity on the Skyrocket. For instance where i live they have a booth for their signature Slyrocket and Note(as well as employees walking around woth white shirts that have a Note on it). Which they really try to sell because it is their USA exclusives. In the other hand how many carriers dont have the SG3. Therefore i am pretty sure they are more then probably Will beacause it is something they offer that no one else has. But of course if we do recieve it, it will be after the SG3. If we dont recieve i probably will start purchasing all nexus devices. (as long as they add external sd)

Based on past experience, I think it's pretty safe to guess that we will not be receiving official 4.1 updates on the Skyrocket. Anything is of course possible, but in this case the preponderance of the evidence is that, even if Samsung did develop an update, AT&T would probably not release it. This is yet another reason (maybe even the biggest reason) to get out of the contract carrier game and buy Nexus products. I know I personally am never buying a phone through the carrier again, be it the next Nexus or what-have-you. I'm done running like a hamster on a wheel for AT&T.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] r3a1ist:
I dont see a reason not to update. The s3 is out, samsung says s3 s2 and notes are getting it u think at&t is gonna hold it from the flagship skyrocket for future sales especially when the next model is out already and it will need to be updated. I dont see anything stopping it and HTC is already updating thiers devices. Samsung does not want a bad jelly bean record in comparison.

Does it matter? We're missing two things and some stability from a non-alpha ROM.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] MaxCarnage:
AT&T wants people to re-up their contracts, and the best way to do that is to get them onto a new phone. Without phone subsidies what's the incentive to be on contract with AT&T? The driving reason behind the mobile technology explosion, aside from Apple making the smartphone a mainstream consumer product, has been the incredible increase in demand, which in turn has been driven by heavy subsidies offered by the big carriers.

---------- Post added at 09:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:03 AM ----------

In the end it probably won't because there will likely be lots of JB options for the Skyrocket in the next few months. Some people want that stock update, though.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] shaggyskunk:
Subsidies imply that the consumer is getting something at a discount. The carriers are using slight of hand, to move the cost of the hardware to the overpriced data & voice plans. Misdirection is the carrier's friend & the consumer's "Florida swamp land".

Absolutly correct. That is what i was trying to say however i was in a hurry.

AT&T will update this, reason why?

It still is a $150 to $100 phone depending where you live. Plus the Skyrocket is AT&T's baby. When it first came out they saw the success and they were even about to release a Skyrocket 2(HD). Meanwhile, at&t doesnt have a special GS3, they know they have the worst of all. Here where i live they do a lot of propaganda on Note and Skyrocket. I am more then sure they will release JB for SR, defenitly a bit too late but their will be. :cool:

Again this isn't about OEM's this is carriers and the hype on skyrocket died long ago in Indianapolis and we have lte we were one of the first markets because of the Superbowl I can bet Sammy will release jb to carriers att will not bite though they want you to upgrade they profit nothing from updating your phone besides by the time its ready new iPhone will be out and att will have to spend billions advertising that

Edit meant to multi quote dude above you too
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] MaxCarnage:
Do you pay a different price for those services if you're not on a contract? If not, then there's no sleight of hand involved; you're getting a discount on the hardware for agreeing to pay for those overpriced services for two years instead of being able to cancel them at any time.

---------- Post added at 10:00 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:55 AM ----------

This is pure speculation; the trend has been that carriers are reluctant to release more than one update for their older phones, and then even one update is not a given. You may, based on your limited analysis of what's popular where you live, think that AT&T still holds the Skyrocket up as its flagship Android smartphone (along with the Note), but there are plenty of new LTE phones being released and on the horizon that best the Skyrocket in terms of specs and AT&T is going to be pushing those devices.

I get that you want them to release a JB update, and they certainly may. But I think your optimism is based more on what you want than what is realistic.
