Samsung Post Source To ICS Build For Sprint Samsung Galaxy S II

Samsung’s way of getting involved with the community of Android development is posting their sources on their, Open Source Release Center website. Recently the source of the FF18 build showed up. Why is this build important? It is the official ICS build for the Samsung Galaxy S II variant on Sprint. While the source is useless to the normal consumer it does help in two ways. One way is it can help the community with their ROM development. Another way is the rollout of this update is rumored for tomorrow and this all but confirms the rollout will come very soon. Even though Jelly Bean is out now I’m sure these users will appreciate their devices getting Android 4.0.

About Tyler Maciaszek

I started out as a Blackberry user and once that phone was stolen I went to Radio Shack looking at the HD2. Blackberry wasn't cutting it and admittedly I didn't know much about technology, or Android at that point so I looked at the phone with the biggest screen. I'm a media guy and I like to have it mobile. At that point the HD2 had a massive screen and that's exactly what I wanted. Immediately when I got there the manager talked me out of getting a windows device and talked me into Android. I didn't know much about CPUs, Android versions, or what a good spec sheet even looked like. I settled with the Samsung Sidekick and immediately began to hate Android. Probably from the ugly skin and the terrible specs that device had. I started looking how to make the device better and found XDA. That's when it all changed. I started learning about rooting, and flashing. From there I would go on to come across Android websites. How I found Land of Droid was through Twitter. I used #android once and John mentioned me asking if I would like to write for an Android blog. I was hesitant at first but I began to immediately love it. I am now a huge technology fan in all aspects not just mobile. Now when looking for a device I will now know that there are more to specs than a screen size.
