Boy, are you in for a big let down.

why do you say that?

[willowman]

why do you say that?

I presume he means that it is just a rumour and that it is not available yet.
No mention on the Orange Helpers UK Twitter page. In fact they say not available yet!

Boy, are you in for a big let down.

and shit battery life.....

well i just updated. it was not ics. it was just an update to android 2.3.6 kernel 2.6.35.7-i9100pbvkl2
i will see what changes it brings.
the first one i have noticed is that the home screens can be scrolled in a continuos loop

Ah! 2.3.6 I remember it well. Smooth & quick with good battery life.
Everything that ICS hasn't got.
Don't get me wrong, ICS brings a lot to the party, but when it comes to a pleasurable experience it's not as good as GB.

I've just done this through kies, only difference i can see is the homescreen loop, nothing else yet..
At this rate ICS will be another 4 or 5 months

At this rate ICS will be another 4 or 5 months

And that puts the Open ICS at 6months +
Shh!! Best keep this quiet or it will upset a lot of people on here.
