The T989's are currently running 2.3.6 (Gingerbead). Not 2.3.5 as listed above.

what is listed above is the stock model when they first came out it came with 2,3,5 and got updated to 2.3.6

Nothing to get excited about yet. no dates. On T-Mobile website they have been promising ICS since Dec. No date as when is listed other than soon.

This article is just as useless as the T mobile web site, what is the time table, A week, a few months what is it? We have been hearing this for quite a while with no real indication.

I have the Samsung Galaxy SII and I’m in So. California in Riverside County. My signal sucks. About half the time I’m on 2G and when I get 4G I barely get 2 or 3 bars. I have called T-Mobile several times and there’s nothing they can do about it. I even contacted the FCC and that got T-Mobile’s attention but in the end nothing changed. Does anybody know if and when I get the ICS update, will that help me get a better signal?

We in Australia think we are provided for well until we read a blog like this, then I realize what we do not have & then to read all your complaints, never satisfied !
Just be grateful for what you do have !
