Samsung I9100 Galaxy S II Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich ROM demo

[ahmedelmoon]

Hope the official update won't be like this shit -_-

[Drobzenn]

Wtf have you done to your SG SII since it lagging that fucking much?

[thehomeslice101]

Why is his sgs2 lagging

[Samkmv19]

Тормозит!

[jorgebassmaster22]

Music so loud...voice not audible at all..

[pachinko1972]

Well there is a ICS ROM for GS2 and it has full ICS look but camera and phone dialer looks the same..so I am guessing that the final will look like ICS.

[oginundercover]

@MrMurder96 yea, this is a BETA ROM, as you said. Many things can happen until the final one released. Hope Samsung can resolve it. But, Samsung's statement wasn't mentioning Wonder to get official ICS. However, TouchWiz on ICS is ruining ICS UX at all. I would prefer the original one as the launcher if I got.

Sluggish!!!!

[oginundercover]

My phone (Samsung Galaxy Wonder) won't get official ICS. Samsung said that my phone won't be able to run TouchWiz on ICS. When I take a look on this video, I just realizing that TouchWiz is uber laggy on Samsung Galaxy S II running ICS.

[9395paul]

i can put rom on my galaxy mini?????

[ChopSooyLee]

I see no difference.... :(

[oblivionwaits]

I own an ET4G and honestly think that TouchWiz UI makes Nexus stock look that much more appealing.

[MrTechville]

people if you dont like TouchWis just use a different launcher like go launcher

[wowmalitv]

@MrTechville no.. they mean the official launcher on ice cream sandwich

[ceilingcatiswatching]

If only android app icons were less like cartoons and kids toys. I want grown-up icons that look much more sleek and sexy :x

[serdarfatihkulakli]

Suck TouchWiz

[caboose967]

This looks like more of a demo for TouchWiz instead of an ICS demo.

[99bep]

Very good

[cleanupman22]

gsmarena good video but how about a new mic your audio sounds like shit

[Tenshiryu786]

4.O ICS is not gonna have a trace of Gingerbread!!!?

[Tenshiryu786]

Dnt believe thats the full ICS for the SGS2 or we all will have it by now!!!

[ofrae1971]

Samsung and other android hardware manufacturers need to focus on better battery life , speaker , bluetooth , tech , speaker and display technology with improved keyboard technology. There so many different ways to differentiate your products.

[MrTechville]

@mcastro75 just change the launcher using SGS2 with go launcher

[ricardomalias]

what's happen that sound ?

[TopRawMen]

smooth as diarrhea!

[hOrZaBoRa]

woeful volume, completely ruins the vid.

[Graarzor]

When will this update be officially released?

[Earthen80]

I didn't mind touchwhiz on the previous Android versions, but I hate it on ICS, I prefer the stock overlay

[Kingjay814]

So Samsung looked at ver. 4.0 ICS and said...eh we like the old look a lot more and skinned it too like just like the current 2.3 ver. that's out now? I suppose if I get the SGS2 I'll have to get a custom Launcher for it.

[mark13579]

This video is good when you turn the volume up

[seezu84]

Touchwiz was nice on Gingerbread, but on ICS totally out of date!

[590jason]

Really??! No volume

[1BMWdrvr1]

Fix the volume! Please use a script or an outline next time...

[marion817]

PLEASE REMOVE TOUCHWIZ.

HOLO FTW.

[Garbageman9865]

i think there is dislikes because of the volume, and also because apple fans are mad as hell, this phone is soooooo much better than apple on a scale that just complies to all my needs, apple fucking sucks

[reneottenn]

It lookes exactly the same as 2.3. Why?

[MyWuffi]

looks like a nicer finger workout.

[NicemaN212]

to be honest 80% of these features can be Added if you install GO LAUNCHER EX and some other APP/Widgets :P

[yichentohjoel]

Apple sucks

[mohsinku]

What about GTalk video chat? Is it enabled?

[pkelly2000]

Didn't see the calendar app in action. Still the touchwiz version or is it the new ICS version for Galaxy S2?

[zizithakid16]

both andriod and apple can be a lil laggy i had a EVO4g now i have a 4S apple i got it because of the memory and loudness other than that android has better apps for free music

[Metal271260]

Its awesome but laggy, the'll fix it with new updates

[NaydraONE]

haha S2 is laggy with ICS.

Apple all the way.

[NicemaN212]

@NaydraONE you APPLE FAN BOY it's the BETA NOT the official ICS firmware you @#!@

[iAnimationProduction]

@NaydraONE Rotten Apple go to the dustbin.

[ArabicLion]

Gsmarena... the path you were on it was straight fine, why you believe the Devi and.... speak! .

[bqrius]

GSMARENA... we can't hear shit.

[kumarmayank100]

Touchwiz sucks ¡¡

[33axy]

i was thinking that there is some problem with my laptop speakers.... speak little louder man

[TheCastaway15]

uummmm i saw the xperia s.. and touchwizz just got slapp in the face!

[GanTreFTW]

this lags.

[MrDJEMAR]

Touchwiz - aka iOS

[delphiking]

Good thing you barely can't hear him talk. "Unlike the previous feature is not limited to the lower portions of the screen" - no it wasn't. "Scrolling appears smoothly" - no it doesn't. "You can rearrange homescreens easily" - obviously not. (then i stopped watching)

[krayedz]

Hmmm.. i've tried ICS on nexus s.. this is NOT what i've expected for SGS2. consider using custom ROM TQ

[AMYN1700]

Awesome

[droidbread]

Touchwiz is for the bin

[gn02761859]

so lag??



[bhavdipsonani]

Is this official update?????

[miscellaneous84]

Va muy mal :( espero la interfaz ics (nexus) si sea obligatoria :(

[SebaZerega]

OMG, VoiceModeOn.

[PYTOG]

Yawn.....really and this is suppose to be interesting how?

[supbrotv]

why the hell does it lag so much!!galaxy nexus runs smoother even with that 720p screen!!

[maxxikhmer]

@supbrotv The lag is causing by the Task Manager widgets. :)

It a culprit in Gingerbread 2.3.5+ also

[rdl008]

Touchwiz sucks. Fail Samsung! I will wait for Cyanogenmod 9

[andrecoxa]

Seems like it's a quite laggy in comparison to 2.3, am I wrong?

[MohamedAlKanj]

Thank you but dislike use better mic next time bro the vol is very low

[alin116]

Was hoping for a more ics-like interface. TouchWiz really annoys me. Looks like they just strapped tw on w/o taking into consideration the looks. Hope to see a more nexus look

[orti1313]

this is not android

[taz6682]

If you want the same build as the nexus you guys better be ready to root and void warranty and get cm9 stop moaning

[androidramirez]

GSMArena should have done this in the first place in all of their videos: TALKING. l:/

[lionheart1121]

Great video! and finally we hear you talk! :D It's much better this way!

Anyways, I really like the update and the whole feel Samsung gave to ICS

Can't wait for the full rom, and not a beta! :D

PS: I had the black one as well, and I sold it to get a white SGS II

Seeing this video made me regret it :( :(

[TechieMoron]

Jan 12, 2012- GSM Arena speaked for the first time



[o0XenonMusic0o]

its not smooth

[sessoumaru13]

I'm guessing that the dislikes are primarily because people were expecting something identical to galaxy nexus user interface and not just its and bits of it here and there. I'm ok with this update, wishing to get it soon.

[faddys1234]

a bit laggy

[esaedvik]

@faddys1234 It's a leaked alpha build. Surprised much?

[dtsvtpt8990]

touchscreen as shjt, ljke up!

[rayamit74]

Hoping to get this ICS update soon.

[rayamit74]

@cdnml

I'm surprised by your attitude to Samsung phones. You clearly have had no experience with the S2. And it's not for no reason it's a top selling phone today, and won numerous awards. Anyway, to each his own.

@others Those who don't like Touchwiz, you have loads of choices of launchers. Someone mentioned Launcher Pro, that's a good one. There's also ADW and my choice of launcher is GO Launcher Ex, which puts the best bits from all other launchers, and adds some more, making it really fun.

[Ficehdulah]

Why the fuck are you people disliking this? Seriously, can I get an answer?

[zero2zero4]

static > voice.. epic

[TheMASTERHYPE]

that was just horrible improvements

[coolpenguin97]

i thought you can't speak??

[Pharmacoholic]

Touch wiz masks the best bits of ICS....its a travesty

[MrRockFut]

Look at how lag it is..

[SergeantFiasco]

I've got to admit... stock Android looks the best. Screw TouchWiz, Timescape UI, HTC Sense, etc. I've got the Nexus for now and I know it's far from being the 'best' Android device but it does the job while looking nice. Hopefully next year there will be quad-core.

Also, to those who think the Note is huge, I'm telling you that in the near future, 5" screens will be the thing. It's really not as big as you think and it can fit in my pocket.

[curseknight5]

jeez people... touchwiz can be fixed with launchers. i use launcher pro and its so fast. and use widgetlocker to i do have the camera option for the custom ics unlock.

[saifulblurbs]

camera test? i want to know whether the new os has get rid of the pink spot in the camera when capturing white background

[Skylark1007]

we dont want a demo , WE WANT A LINK TO THE UPDATE !

[dennismachel2008]

@Skylark1007 Post the link please...got to get the upgrade!!!! 4S is dead!!!

[0717815151]

[superbcool10]

[aldeab90]

Samsung has the best phone and the worst UI I HATE TochWizard

[otezz]

If you listen closely you can hear someone speaking.

[akocern03]

lol of course it won't be smooth. It's an early build software.LOL

You guys are idiots

[cdnml]

@akocern03

thats why dont buy samsung phone now :) buy something else now then buy this phone after 2 years (hope they fix and release stable version after 2 years and also if we buy a phone now contract ends after 2 years)

[Ashish148yt]

[grandmaxdotnet]

[ZlyerMax]

[korrakrit100]

[soniasmile]

[AdiTeachaG]

FUCK YOU TOUCHWIZ!

[elmarshall50]

this is not the samsung build for s2...so dont hate...just flash your phone or something.....plus samsung has got cyamogen mod on their UI

[NIGHTMAREMITSARAS]

Thank you Samsung for making such a shitty firmware.

[Chinozs]

OMG! What happened? :(

[Stresy94]

ICS sux for S2 to bad :(

[techdude2121]

hahah, so sad , end of the line for S2 .

[NavyCaptainAllen]

not smooth enough...not much difference than before...disappointed

[Tamasoleng]

not smooth as people expected

[rainedFond]

The strangest lock screen i ever seen...

why they make it like that. their last lock screen or original ICS Lock screen is way better. but combining it is a bad idea...

[BrainDrain81]

The phone is running ICS but thanks to Samsung's touchwiz it still looks like Android 2.3!

What an absolute and utter waste.

[AljosaKa]

What an awful lag.

[don198769]

I think Samsung is messing up by injecting too much touchwiz into ics. They are keeping the phone feeling like gb which will start to bore people sooner than they think. I know it has me, I had this phone when it debuted and loved it for about 2 weeks and traded it. Bought a skyrocket and it was too much of the same old touchwiz feeling. Traded it now have a gsm galaxy nexus and there's no looking back. They, htc, moto, Sony and LG are ruining what 4.0 was meant to be.

[MrBlack04004]

Superman, Batman =)

[crstanley84]

Love how people are picking at an alpha build. 

[esaedvik]

@crstanley84 Stupidity at its finest. It's everywhere.

[zillionaire4u]

i just love your contacts :)

[Hoepkoen]

"Scrolling between the TouchWiz home screens work smoothly." Dude, did you see that background lag?!

[zetarobot]

@Hoepkoen This is a leaked version dude, meaning they didnt fully develop it.

I am sure It will be smooth when they officially announce it.

[rajarshi10]

touchwiz or sense... it just ruins the ICS experience totally! Cynogen mod is our savior!

[TheOutsiderNS]

Correct ALL the lag!

[Rayz093]

welp, thanks for the review, still, Touchwiz is just ugly compared to CM9

[prasenjit815]

wooo Dexter Morgan in the list

[allazo0o0oz]

why is it slow like that :/
