ICS...

Hi everyone...
I completed a search here for IceCreamSandwich, but came up short.
Is ICS available for users now?
If yes, how do I download it?

Thank you!

That would depend upon your device and carrier, for the most part.

Many devices have a developer following community that may have built an ICS ROM from the Google Android Open Source Project (AOSP). Best place to check would by in your device's specific forum here.

Oh, hmm! Okay, I will check out the GS3 area.
Thank you!!

The GS3 comes with ICS already installed. And it will get an update to Jelly Bean.

Ugh... Sorry!! that is what I meant! Jelly bean.
Sorry! I am very new to Android!

No worries, when i first got my original Motorola DROID, i was brand new to Android as well.

There is still no official Jelly Bean update for SGS3 from Samsung. You can get it via manual installation, a method called "flashing" in Android terminology. This involved prior rooting of your device. Note however that unofficial methods of updates like this voids your warranty.

Your best bet, is to wait for JellyBean to come out on it's own (mostly bug free). I am one of the disgruntled few that is still waiting for sprint to release the OTA update for ics. They went from early June, to mid June- early July to, mid-late July, now early August. I have a small feeling that my Evo 3d may not see ics, but, I'm hopeful...
