Anyway, if it's not the official, don't complain...

I and my friend have SII.My friend updated ICS and now he encounters freezing and nonresponsive screen.Also the system is working slower than before.Battery performance is worse than before.Now he can not reverse to previous version.I am happy because I have not updated my device.
Guys,do not be in a hurry and wait for some time because ICS is not stable at the moment.

Can anyone confirm if there was a SGS2 ICS update OTA for LatAm? I want to have an idea on how long it will take to actually get the SGNote ICS update.

Google eros service centers in dubai. Be sure to take your receipt with you, else you maybe charged for the upgrade.
