Contacted T-Mobile today on blurry MMS photos--ICS coming within a month

This is what T-Mobile estimates. They say ICS is rolling out currently in the UK on GS2 devices and he expects it to roll out within a month on our devices. He said this will include the blurry MMS fix.

This is fantastic news. I can't wait to get some stock ICS roms

Unless your speaking to someone in charge of the updates T-Mobile has no idea when ICS will be deployed for the GS2. The sensation ics has already been out for a while yet they still haven't pushed out and last info we had was that it would be going into testing soon as well as the amaze that was over a month ago. I highly doubt the t989 will see ics soon officially.

Totally agree no customer care Rep or tech Rep know when ics is coming. Heck my buddy works for tech center he even asked the support team that's in charge of testing and they dont even know so sorry to burst ur bubble

I believe your telling the truth its just that there is no way anyone you talked to had any clue what they are talking about. Also hell will freeze over before we get it in a month.

But then again, with the Skyrocket leak we might be closer than we realize. Of course, it will drop when it drops so I'm not holding my breath in the meantime.

While I appreciate your "spreadin the good word" n all, the rep was probably just eager to get off the phone :S

For what its worth and I have no reason to lie
For what its worth my friend works at tmobile and they had a meeting about ICS "lol" and said that ota's would be rolling out at the end of April. And that is what the reps are to tell the customers. Maybe we will get a leak he also said that Samsung had released it months ago for our phones. I guess t-mobile is just bloating the crap out of it.

Interesting, yet part of me wouldn't be surprised if T-mobile didn't release it until next year, we may even get the 2.3.6 ICS update from them. I'm no longer interested in the anticipation, we should all focus on SR ports.

T-Mobile Developer I know..., it was suppose to come in may but since the T-Mobile apps isn't working they not releasing it til the T-Mobile apps work correctly because Samsung has a contract to fulfill with T-Mobile apps. Til they get it to work on the T-Mobile SII no ICS.

Deeerrrppp
Not to be the "I know a guy" -guy. but "I know a guy" an Sammy Regional Sales Exec. -in the U.S. mind you, they are shooting for mid-month April and expected to have it released for sure by the end of 3rd/4th week (T989 Hercules) at the very latest. I don't care what you believe, just think all you people need something else to do, all ICS rumor guys out there. They are still only a couple weeks behind their scheduled goal they had stated in November, pretty standard. And hit the Q1 goal for a bunch of S2 handsets... Truth also is they didn't even start adjusting their goal of releasing the Galaxy 3 at the end of April until this week, which means that will be out in the next 6 or so weeks too. about a month after we get our update and about a month + before the iphone 5 release. If you think I'm crazy show me your DERP face and we'll talk again in a month so I can send you one back, and sales works on different floor, basically different world from the developers so I've got no info on why the ICS hasn't been finished yet? and carrier reps (T-Mobile) are the last to hear anything for obvious reasons so figure that one out too...duuurrrr

Big Red is always the last to receive updates. They take too long to lock bootloaders and revamp their data plans to realize that manufacturers push updates to them with plenty of time to bloat it out.

If were taking a real guess, i'll say March 2013.

Yeah I said around February or March as well.

Thinking positively: Verizon "has to" test the update to make sure it's up to their specifications. If they work on it quickly and start immediately perhaps mid-December.
Thinking realistically: They won't test it immediately, or testing will take longer than a month. Feburary or March as stated earlier.
Thinking negatively: Verizon already had a fire sale on the Galaxy Nexus, they want it out of stock and unsupported ASAP. Testing never begins and an OTA never occurs. Verizon twiddles its thumbs wondering why Google no longer wants to work with them.

Probably never... which is why I'm switching to T-Mobile as soon as I'm off contact (if not before, not sure how steep their cancellation fee is)

4.2 is/has been released to AOSP. You can wait on vzw.... but our talented devs will have ROMs based on 4.2 out way sooner than one could speculate about vzw. Custom and stock flavors to your liking soon

The Dev's here I believe had 4.1 on the Verizon Galaxy Nexus about 2 days after it was released.

I just saw a 4.2 AOSP ROM posted on the "other" site. There aren't any linked GApps included though, so there might be a few things missing until a new package is created.

Yes, and the OTA hit the Nexus about 8-10 weeks after some of the first "usable" firmwares started rolling out from developers, especially CM10, which devs jumped on fairly quickly.
My question...
How soon from release will AOSP become usable firmwares that devs can release to the wild?
You would think it would be fast, but I beg to differ. One compound word........ Roadrunner.

It took Verizon approximately 2 months and 14 days to start OTA'ing 4.1. So my guess would be...January 24th.

Yes please to that! I am also a Verizon GNex victim and was thinking the same thing! I'm switching to T-Mobile and getting a Nexus directly from Google from now on...when I can afford it. This Verizon behavior is too much violation for me.

March sounds like a good estimate, it's sad. I contemplated leaving them too.
Instead for now though, I just went and unlocked/rooted/flashed MMuzzy's AOSP rom and it's rock solid. No more waiting.

We will see the update, but since Verizon is sunsetting this phone, I expect it will go the way of the other "Nexus" device Verizon had...the Motorola Xoom. Once a device becomes a non-priority at VZW, basically they'll test the updates whenever they get around to it, thus the updates take longer to test and approve than they used to. Sadly this is what happened to the Xoom. The Wi-Fi version got 4.1.1/JRO03H in July and its final update to 4.1.2/JZO54K in October. The Verizon version is still on 4.0.4/IMM76L and Motorola doesn't expect Google's 4.1.2 OTA to be approved by Verizon until some time in Q1 2013.
That said, the Galaxy Nexus almost certainly sold exponentially more units than the Xoom did, so hopefully that means the Galaxy Nexus won't become quite that much of a bastard child. Time will tell.
With all that in mind, Vegas currently has the over/under on a 4.2.1 OTA at February 1. I'm taking the under. I say mid January... assuming Google can cool their jets on the update schedule. If a 4.2.2 OTA comes out before Verizon approves 4.2.1, our wait counter starts over. That's why the VZW Galaxy Nexus never got 4.1.2/JZO54K or 4.2/JOP40C. They came out too fast. 4.1.2 came out in October, followed by 4.2 in mid November, followed by 4.2.1 two weeks later.

Maybe Verizon nexus owners will see 4.2.2 first on this round. Wouldn't surprise me to much, since the testing team tends to get a lot of subtle tweaks made (we are on JRO03O and not version C like the takju/yakju variants). At worst someone should be leaking some version in the coming weeks.

I'm glad your LG rep is actually worth a darn. Ours always came around and talked up the LG products but never knew much about them. We got some laughs when he told us Apple stole the iPhone design from LG. And honestly, they might have. But this guy was 1000% LG is better than everything, regardless of what it was.
Never gave us any insight on oncoming updates or new releases or anything, but he'll argue with you til you're blue in the face if you tell him a Samsung TV is better than an LG for any reason given.

Good news? You mean great news. But I am betting 3-4 weeks. I really want to be proved wrong. Jb update means new stuff to not be bored for a few weeks. Then it mean jb source and new stuff to not be bored for a long time. This phone could beat my 6 month record for a phone!

has anyone actually seen jelly bean running on an Optimus G yet? I know it's been released in South Korea, but I've been trying to find a changelog or something that actually shows the new features. I've been checking youtube everyday to see if there are videos of the new software, but nothing yet... which seems weird to me
does anyone have a changelog or even a video of the official jelly bean update running on an Optimus G?

It doesn't show a lot, but some of the features there look pretty slick. I liked the translate feature from the Camera, that looks pretty awesome.
EDIT: Do you think that this is due to the Optimus G Pro announcement? The two phones seem very similar and it makes sense that rolling out the one device with JB at the same time that they are updating the other is logical and fairly easy, right? Or am I stuipd? (see what I did there?)

Yeah that makes sense actually. I think the specs are relatively the same for both devices (obviously Pro is a bit faster and powerful, but I think besides the bump in clock speed, everything else is the same), and even then, I've heard the phones are the same but the Pro is just overclocked with the same processor. Here's an excerpt from the Engadget article when the Pro was announced:
There's now a quicker, 1.7GHz Snapdragon S4 Pro chip, a heftier 3,000mAh battery and Jelly Bean (albeit Android 4.1, not 4.2) out of the box. Other elements are familiar carryovers, such as the 2GB of RAM, 13-megapixel camera, 32GB of built-in storage, a microSDXC slot and LTE
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So looks like the same chip, so my guess would be that it's just overclocked, so hopefully the Jelly Bean update will come soon. I think the Pro is set to release in April...hope they don't keep us waiting that long

http://androidos.in/2013/01/lg-optimus-g-worldwide-roll-out-begins-with-jelly-bean-on-board/
Looks like this might have something to do with it as well. The standard OG is rolling out to 50 countries with JB pre-loaded.

More like January or Feb, I'd say or maybe never...at least for the Sprint variant. It isn't in Sprint's interest to push updates unless the other carriers do. Of course Samsung wants to get these updates moving because they want the public to feel they'll be supported if they purchase a Samsung branded device but brand loyalty isn't in Sprints interests unless the brand is Sprint and that of course is usually maintained at the end of a very thin thread as it is.
As for the possibility of receiving the 4.3 update. I'm always excited about OTA updates because updates play a fairly big role in future versions of Android. The more updates there are the more well understood it is what the public wants/needs from future versions because of the broader spectrum of users providing feedback.
For my own personal device...I don't care. I run what I want on my device anyway regardless of whatever Samsung/Sprint/Google push. I don't give a rats ass about having a "pure" Android experience or being the first to get the latest version (no offense to the Nexus fans) either. I want my device dirty and nasty with a big moustache. I don't want be like one of those creeps that hangs around the strip clubs but never pays for a lap dance...I'm in the champaign room and let me tell you there is more going on in there than the song says. Why do you think I'm hanging around here? Trick it, brick it, fix it, trick it and brick it again...that's what it all about.

Yea don't really care because Google separated their core services from the operating system so most of the really great feature are now pushed through Google rather than being a part of a new os version.
Android updates aren't as feature rich anymore.

Pretty sure that you're missing the point.
The updates that we all are anxious for are system updates that ROM devs can work with, make better ROMs for us all. Definitely worth "complaining" about.
That other thread is about a fault where the phone thinks it needs a software update, but not really, or the update in question is actually not desirable for whatever reason.

I've been thinking long n hard about that, as an option. I do love my Note2, with the exception of the plastic, it's a badass device. But I don't actually use the pen as much as I thought I would. So taking a long look at the HTC Mega (?), and hoping that it makes it to the US... I allow myself a new phone every year, it being a hobby I indulge myself in, and I always buy outright, no ETF charges...
