Samsung Galaxy SII Ice Cream Sandwich update - when will I get it?



Now Samsung has confirmed the Samsung Galaxy S2 Ice Cream Sandwich android update is landing next week, here's our constantly updated hub of all information for the next level of Android on your flagship Samsung phone.
The issue with Android updates is the method is so staggered, leading to consumers getting angry at the length of time it takes them to get the next generation of program.
One time Google throws out the source code to the manufacturers, it is up to them to divert resources to combining the latest version of Android with their hardware- this can take longer if there is a skin walking atop the OS, as is the case with the Galaxy S2.
& one time that is complete, the likes of Vodafone & O2 then must make sure there's no issues with the new firmware walking with their networks- it may sound trivial, but you don't need something like this happening - so check below to see how long you'll be likely to wait for the next generation program to land on your Galaxy S2.
Update: It looks like you need to plug your Galaxy S2 in to your computer & access the new Ice Cream Sandwich update by Kies. The update won't show up in the Settings > About phone > Program update > Update option on the handset.

Has the Galaxy Note Android Ice Cream Sandwich update been delayed?



Owners of the Galaxy Note, Samsung's tablet/smartphone hybrid, who are waiting for an Ice Cream Sandwich update for their gizmo ought to get ready for disappointment, as there is a chance it's been delayed.
News that the Galaxy Note would be receiving Ice Cream Sandwich broke in December last year, and at the time it was given a first quarter 2012 release window. When the Galaxy S II's Android four.0 update began rolling out earlier this week, Samsung took the chance to say the Note's ICS update would "follow soon"
However, on the exact same day, a conversation took place on Samsung's official Facebook page in Norway which cast doubt on whether the update would appear before the finish of the month.
Responding to a query about when the Note would get its update, Samsung's Norwegian spokesperson answered that it would be in the work of the second quarter of the year, placing it between the beginning of April and the finish of June.

While there is a chance this is only relevant to Note owners in Norway, a post on the same portal made in late January said the update would be coming towards the finish of the first quarter, so it does go against historicallyin the past reported dates for that country .
On the other hand, Samsung's international portals have a history of speaking out of line, forcing the Korean company to take to its Twitter account to set everybody straight. At the time of writing, a post telling us all application update news will come from @samsungtomorrow has yet to appear, but that does not mean it is not coming.
Samsung has weeks to deliver Ice Cream Sandwich to the Note to meet its self-imposed deadline. Will they succeed, or is this going to be the beginning of another lengthy ICS update saga for the manufacturer?

Two Android tablets take on Apple: One is up to the task


Comparing Apple's iPad two with Motorola's XyBoard and Amazon's Kindle Fire is fraught with peril. But here goes anyway. Let me preface my review by saying that a few overzealous readers (I am being charitable with that description) invariably call the writer (me) an fool for not being as savvy and/or perceptive as they claim to be. That is par for the coursework. But let's receive a few things straight here. First, this is not an official review. Like the kind you would find at CNET Reviews. Second, I don't favor manufacturer over the other. So, let me state the obvious (though, I recognize, this will seldom satisfy conspiracy theorists). If Product X makes what I need to do simpler, then I will favor it over Product Y. &, third, as a corollary to the above, I have personalized needs, like someone. A graphic designer will place a very different set of demands on a tablet than I would. So, my use case doesn't necessarily apply to everyone. That said, I have used the iPad two, the Motorola XyBoard (aka Xoom two), & the Amazon Kindle Fire long to understand their strengths & weaknesses for my particular needs. I have had the iPad two for ten months (& in the event you count the original iPad, that is about 22 months of iPad use). The XyBoard for about two months. The Amazon Kindle Fire for a tiny over two months. & availability addresses an important point. Apple has been making 10-inch-class consumer tablets longer than someone. That gives Apple an advantage. Based by myself personal preference, I had to wait until Motorola came out with the second-generation Xoom to justify the acquisition of a 10-inch-class Android tablet. (Motorola didn't ship its original Xoom until about a year after Apple announced the original iPad.

Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich has still not been rolled out to many handsets, though already we are conference rumours of a subsequent Android chronicle named Jelly Bean. Its being pronounced that Jelly Bean Android 5.0 is approaching in a second entertain for a year, that is April to June.
This news comes from Digitimes that generally keeps us adult to date with a latest gossip. Digitimes goes on to discuss that a Taiwan-based supply sequence makers who are articulate about a news due to a imminent recover of Windows 8.

If so, then we would see hybrid notebooks and netbooks running on both Windows 8 and Android 5.0. Rumor has it that the the switch between Android and Windows will be made without restarting the machine. Android 5.0 might be the operating system that replaces Chrome OS, as the latter one failed on becoming a popular platform.

Latest Android App Lets You Flashback To The Arcades Of Yesteryear


Arcade stage here in a United States is yet a fragment of what it was behind in a heyday, yet that does not meant that a adore for those classical games has only evaporated. Capcom’s CPS2 arcade house has achieved fable standing in certain retro gaming circles since of a catalog of present classics, and a developer named Cpasjuste has only given those games a new franchise on life with a new CPS2 emulator for Android.
Before we go any further, know that I am not here to discuss a legality of possessing ROMs, it is been a adhering indicate for a simulation village for years. Suffice it to contend that CPSEmu was able of using each retro shooter and beat-em-up we installed onto my Galaxy Nexus (purely for contrast purposes) though so most as a hiccup. Your mileage might change there though, as some people have remarkable some issues with crashing on inclination like a Asus Transformer.
