Samsung JB release cycle

User: Hey, Sammy, when will JB be available for Ace 2?

Samsung: ...

Troll internet user: Guys, be ready, JB will be out in two weeks...

... two MONTHS later...

User: Hey, Sammy, when will JB be available for Ace 2?

Samsung: ...

Troll internet user: Guys, I'm so excited, Samsung confirmed that JB will be available in a couple of weeks...

... several YEARS later...

User: Bad one on you, Sammy, you are not a serious company...

Samsung: ...

Troll internet user: Guys, guys, have you heard? Samsung is to release JB by the end of this week...

... somewhere between the end of the world and the next Big Bang...

User: ... xx

Samsung: Good news for the Ace 2 users: our company has just released the JB update so that you can experience the look and feel of the latest Android release.

Troll internet user: don't worry guys, Samsung just confirmed that they will NOT release a JB update for Ace 2. Better buy a new smartphone...
[Galaxy Ace II General] dlsygaco:
To make it simple. Samsung sux in software updates. Or maybe just a bad lazy dev team they have
[Galaxy Ace II General] Rox:
and mybe they dont want to post bad updates...

or it is not in their interest to make mid range phone fast as their flagship device.

our job is to do that
[Galaxy Ace II General] mojito0:
Nope, our job is to pay them. And guess what, we don't just pay for the product anymore these days, everything is online so we are also paying the support. Their job is to make the phone better and better, but for marketing purposes they have a bad support ON purpose. So even flaming their support won't solve anything cuz they already know it xD
[Galaxy Ace II General] wiseman911:
What is worse is that I believe they suck on purpose... They do not want to update Ace 2 to JB simply because it will compete with higher range phones (SII, SIII, Siii mini, etc.)...
[Galaxy Ace II General] WahyuGo:
Yes please, ignore me...

And you missing the point by a long shot.

(Don't make promises that you can't keep) aka A company like Samsung should not be making announcements with (eta), when they are not serious about it.

All they are doing is behaving like trolls by announcing rubbish dates only to upset the folks.

But should an update not come today we should do some kind of protest to Samsung especially Samsung Ukraine for posting false information on their site and demand something, LOL.

[Galaxy Ace II General] grrigor:
And you believe one comment someone posted at gsm arena? I am surprised and amazed.

I am really trying to but I can't understand some people on this forum. When you bought Ace 2, you were (or should be) informed about Samsung` updating policy. And now, surprisingly, you are mad about what they are doing.

Their updating policy was known long, long before Ace 2 was officially available for customers.
[Galaxy Ace II General] kyrillos13:
The update for I8160P started to roll out. Be patient and the update will come soon.

About 22 July:

Yeah sure, believe an anonymous post. In my country, the SSC doesn't even know that this phone will be upgraded to JB. I could state that the update will come on 22 december 2030, based on SSC source, too.

Be patient, i believe the firmware will be globally available soon.

Ace 2 is enough powerful for JB but Samsung software sucks. They care about high-end phones and not for our pretty, mid-range ace 2.
[Galaxy Ace II General] Shadowcareful:
Guys just wait it's normal that you have to wait for a long time if you want an update for a samsung phone.

And be happy that there ia really an update comming and not like on other phone where samsung said that the update will come but no update comes.

And i'm really happy that i live in germany and have the nfc version so i could use the me1 :)
[Galaxy Ace II General] loof13:
Which would you guys prefer? A really buggy rom which releases today or a fast and stable rom after waiting for sometime?
[Galaxy Ace II General] Bogzilla:
This is the worst argument ever. Why? Because the intial release date was 1st set for december 2012(ICS), then delayed, then delayed again(and changed several times). Please don't tell me you need a year to release a single working rom for a device?! Especially when the platform is shared. You already have the drivers and you only have to adapt. You do not need a whole year, nor 6 months for a single release.

Any argument you bring to table regarding the release and time delay is invalid. Why? Because the resources of Samsung are far beyond normal end user resources, and thus they can release any rom they want, when they want. They'd rather release new handsets than update the existing ones, especially midrange ones.

Why? So they can sell more. So they can make you change your device faster and buy a brand new one, with updated OS and apps. This is what is actually happening.

It's so easy to manipulate user into thinking this is the truth, when savage marketing is the name of the game. Stop being so gullible.
[Galaxy Ace II General] veaceslav:
If they already release some public explanations like this, I think they won't release a better rom. This is just sad. Jb is fast enough on my phone but it freeze a lot especially when playstore update apps...
[Galaxy Ace II General] borkins:
Samsung must share with us some information about the progress of every update. What is the development stage of the updates, or what is the reason for these delays? Now we know nothing and must wait forever.
[Galaxy Ace II General] arroyo:
I also agree with Bogzilla. Hope dies last. But I am sure that they will release something later than sooner. I won't expect that JB would be complete and working. They patch one of the leaks probably... thats all.

Samsung is on rush with releasing 2-3 devices each month and this is the best business approach that can make money. 90% of users do not even know that phones can be updated to new ROM. They want new system-they are buying new phone. I am not a fan of this approach, but it is damn logic.

Some day we will have CM10 and then we could say:

$am$ung, we made it and you can now take your GalaxyAce4 6.1 inches and put it in your ... earss.
[Galaxy Ace II General] kohrangi:
A fast and stable rom which releases today.

When the hell is next date? :(

[Galaxy Ace II General] arroyo:
"When the sun rises in the west and sets in the east," said Mirri Maz Duur. "When the seas go dry and mountains blow in the wind like leaves." ... then Samsung would stop teasing us with update policy.
[Galaxy Ace II General] Smokey Mc Pot:
There is no point in jumping into conclusions over that article.

Although the website is called Samsung update, that don't makes it official. Is only a community running the website in the same way as sammobile...

While everybody is talking about official JB for our device, I'm more interested in the custom android OS builds.

Any rumours/news if devs are working on it?
[Galaxy Ace II General] grrigor:
Arroyo, could you explain to me what do you mean by complete and working JB? ATM, on MC8, everything is working, all they need to do is perform better optimisation.

Patching the leaks is the best way for building reliable ROM. Moreover, MC8 is working good IMHO.

Like a person before me said - if official JB for P version was already published, version for standard Ace 2 is on the way.

I really can't understand your complains - all of you, complaining most of the time, know the Samsung update strategy and what happened to our handset shouldn't be surprising for ya.

Stop complaining, people!

None of you was forced to buy this phone. Deal with Samsung mid-range policy now.
[Galaxy Ace II General] mojito0:
Omg...just stop with the damn update policy and shyt, this doesn't have to do with that. We payed for the phone and they are playin with us, have you seen any policy saying "Hello, we are samsung and our policy for the mid range phone is: we update whenever we want and we are free to troll people by delaying updates 4 months while having given 5 dates"
[Galaxy Ace II General] grrigor:
The policy has a lot to do with the current situation. Samsung can do exactly what you just said - they only informed that Ace 2 will get 4.1.2 and the dates Samsung Ukraine posted are only ESTIMATION and may vary.

You can complain as much as you want but Samsung is covered.

Find me any document, where Samsung is claiming, that they cannot change the release date, even without notification.
[Galaxy Ace II General] judas1977:
You really don't see the point? We all just want to say one thing: if there wasn't ETAs, nobody has the right to complain. But we have opposite situation: Samsung gives ETAs (long range) and even for 3rd time rescheduling can't (don't want to actually) give that damned update.

Wysyłane z mojego GT-I8160 za pomocą Tapatalk 2
[Galaxy Ace II General] grrigor:
OK. I understand, but look - I am not defending Samsung - ETA means estimated, not 100% sure. Even there is an ETA, it can always change - that's the definition of ETA - look what estimation means. It is not my role to judge if this delay is intentional or not.

They can change ETAs as many time as they really want. I am sorry. None of you signed an agreement with Samsung for exact date. Face the facts.
[Galaxy Ace II General] mojito0:
Sure they can change ETAs xD from 11.03.2013 for example to 1 week later..or 1 month later..it won't be problem, thing is they give an ETA around 2 months after announcement, and after those 2 months end, they give another ETA for the next 3months, and when those 3 months pass too, guess what Another eta of how much is it til end summer? another 3 months? And thing is...they don't even tell us WHYYYY, give us some update..."Sorry guys we will delay the update because there was some evil company who stole all our files so we gotta begin all over" atleast if that was the case I would know that they don't care so update is far from release.
[Galaxy Ace II General] Bilgets:
Well, estimation should be at (more or less than) 10% accuracy.. At least that's on physics..

Also, you can bring Samsung to the court for the reason of wrong information...

As for indonesia, they put the "upgradable to ICS" animation on the store, but they don't.. As for Ukraine or other, it maybe can still be brought to the court..

Well, that's my opinion..

Pitty there was no update on 22/5 but amount of hate/whining here is stunning... for a DEVELOPER forum of intelligent people. People who same day might be working in companies leading IT sector and creating future. Act like it, not like 14yo raging hormones kids. Learn patience.

I don't get all this "OMG I WANT MY JB NOW OR I DIE!"

Are you 4yo "MOMMY MOMMY I WANT JB LOPIPOP NOW! OR I WILL CRY" ?

Are you junkies out of crack because their dealer is ill? Are you really that obsessed with

just a phone

?

Wake up, this is a PHONE first and foremost. I hate to shatter your world, but it's new kernel will not change your world!.

This is not rocket science, JB wont make you explore universe, it will not make you save Earth from disasters, it will not make you a hero, it will not make you fly, it won't even make your phone fly. And you act like it should.

It will call the same, it will sms the same, it will game same and it will browse same (if you use 3rd party browser), it will photo same and facebook same.

"MOMMY MOMMY SAMSUNG LOLIPOPS ARE BAD!" - then don't buy them, free market...If your world crashed however - invent time machine, go back 1,5year ago and buy LG or SE, you would be forever on GB or uncompleted 3rd party ICS.

Also keep in mind Ace2 was great deal for its price, when competitors offered single core 512RAM phones.

Chill and go on with your life.
[Galaxy Ace II General] TotallyNotMikey:
When it comes to an open source OS like Android, people expect more from the phones they have bought.

Jelly bean has been out for a long time, and to only now have it, is completely stupid. It's easy to port, they had JB on most of the new phones. Even the S2 didn't get JB till now. An update like JB adds a crap ton of performance increases and features, and also unlocks a whole new world of custom ROMs and tweaks.

It's true that people complain about not getting it, because manufacturers have their own version of Android, and usually get incredibly lazy about it, or don't bother at all, to sell their new phones mostly.

People on iOS don't complain because they have their own crappy, mandatory OS, that barely gets updated and can't be modified without a jailbreak. They can't switch to other OSes made by the community, because iOS isn't open source.

Man this post was a mess.
[Galaxy Ace II General] izap:
Sell Ace, buy Nexus? Build own ROM? Make own company that makes phones?

Or just wait instead of whining on situation you cannot/don't want to change.

"My last phone from Samsung", "Never buy Samsung", "OMG Samsung hurry", "Stupid Samsung gief JB nao111!" - teen Facebook level discussion at best.
[Galaxy Ace II General] TotallyNotMikey:
You're in the mindset that we all have money free. The Ace 2 is a mid-range smartphone designed for bang-for-buck. The addition of a duel-core processors means it's a perfect candidate for the latest updates. Single core Android phones, usually using stock ROMs, get updated with Jelly Bean, so why shouldn't the Ace 2?

And again, I'll say, Samsung announce updates but most of the time don't follow up because they wanna sell their new phones, which are usually not that different. It's how a company works. If it were any other OS, it would not have all this backlash.

By the way, just building your own ROM is not as easy as you think. A lot of research needs to be done into the hardware, you also need to know Java if you're building something new, not just a visual redesign.
[Galaxy Ace II General] michal89chz:
Mid-range? No way...for me mid-range now is S2. (hardware)
[Galaxy Ace II General] TotallyNotMikey:
Well, in a hardware standpoint, there isn't much difference between the Ace 2 and the S2. Even JB feels sluggish on the S2 (Samsung version)
[Galaxy Ace II General] michal89chz:
...faster processor, more faster ram and 2x faster GPU is not better for you ? heh

For me from hardware point:

Low-range: Ace Plus/ Desire X (GPU in desire....)

Lower mid-range: Ace 2/S Advence

Mid-range: S2/Xperia T

High-range: Nexus 4 with good kernel / S3

Enthusiast-range: S4/Z/One
