Those of you who defiantly stuck with a Galaxy S II amid amazing pressure to upgrade are about to have your moment in the sun, thanks to Samsung pushing out its Android 4.1 update in Europe. It hit Spain yesterday, so could pop up on unlocked phones in the UK any time now. Keep checking for system updates. Make that your full-time job. [Sam Mobile] Read More >>

After yesterday's news that the Galaxy S III was getting some buttery action, Samsung Galaxy S II owners must've champing at the bit. Well, not long to go now as Samsung Sweden, via its Facebook page, has announced that a plethora of devices, including the Galaxy S II, are being pegged for November Android 4.1 upgrades -- unless you've, err, rooted already.

I've got to say that the Samsung Galaxy S III is quite the pretty little thing (in the blue colourway, anyway -- we're still not that impressed by the cheapness of the white one), but could it look even more dapper draped in a formal all-black ensemble? Let's see. Read More >>

Samsung is looking to give the Galaxy S line a bit of Jelly Bean lovin' fairly soon with the Galaxy S III first up to get the 4.1 update, while the Galaxy S II will get the candy-coated Android version just a little bit later. Read More >>

Samsung's nearly got all of the UK Galaxy S II phones up to Android 4.0 now, thanks to previous upgrade launches for unlocked models and those on Vodafone, O2 and Three. Next up are users on Orange, who should get "Ice Cream Sandwich" this week. Read More >>
Samsung’s finally rolling out its Ice Cream Sandwich update for off-network Galaxy S IIs via Samsung Kies, and at least one of us is lucky enough to have grabbed the update already. Looks like it just couldn’t wait for Everything Everywhere to push its update, thankfully. Read More >>

The Samsung Galaxy S II Ice Cream Sandwich update saga rages on. This time Vodafone’s had to postpone its update by a day because Samsung took its sweet time checking it over. The good news is you should be able to grab it through Samsung Kies tomorrow, but those looking for an over-the-air update will have to wait till Tuesday next week. Read More >>
Apparently the reason you SIM-free Samsung Galaxy S II-wielders haven’t got your tasty Ice Cream Sandwich update yet is because Samsung’s waiting to see what happens with the network operators. If they screw up first it’ll know it has a problem before it releases its own Android 4.0 update. Read More >>

Despite lucky Three users being able to update their Galaxy S IIs already, Samsung UK’s apparently still testing its Ice Cream Sandwich update. Apparently it’s “working hard” but can’t confirm exact dates for a rollout yet – you can stop hitting that “check for updates” button for a bit. Read More >>

Samsung promised its Ice Cream Sarnie update for the still awesome Galaxy S II this week and it seems it's delivered. Those on Three at least, can grab the update from Samsung Kies and get their Android 4.0 on -- time to repeatedly ram that check for updates button again. Read More >>
After a couple of false starts in the last few days, Samsung’s finally rolling out its Ice Cream Sandwich update to loyal Galaxy S II owners, as well as the Galaxy Note, Tab 8.9 and Tab 10.1. Our European friends in Poland, Hungary and Sweden will apparently be the first to get the tasty treat, with the UK following shortly behind. Read More >>

With all the rumours of the Galaxy S III, it’d be easy to forget that the Galaxy S II is quite a formidable champion of Android in its own right. Now it looks like Galaxy S II owners are going to get a tasty treat for Easter as rumoured – Ice Cream Sandwich is headed your way around the 15th of March. Read More >>
