Rogers creates OS upgrade schedule, declares Ice Cream Sandwich is coming for many “Early September”

Following TELUS, Rogers has come out with its own OS upgrade schedule. Currently there’s only Android devices on the list, but here’s what you can expect within the coming month:

Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 upgrade to Ice Cream Sandwich (4.0) is expected “Early September”
Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 upgrade to Ice Cream Sandwich (4.0) is expected “Early September”
Sony Xperia Arc S (LT18a) upgrade to Ice Cream Sandwich (4.0) is expected “Early September”
Sony Xperia Arc (LT15a) upgrade to Ice Cream Sandwich (4.0) is expected “Early September”
Sony Xperia Mini Pro (SK17a) upgrade to Ice Cream Sandwich (4.0) is expected “Early September”
Motorola Razr (XT910) upgrade to Ice Cream Sandwich (4.0) is expected “Late August”

Good to see more carriers putting this kind of list together. This must make customers happy. Rogers notes that these are “tentative dates” and they will “update often as information is available.”

    Well, I think the issue isn’t Rogers but LG in that case…
    Good luck with them =/
    (Google LG Optimus 2x ICS to see why I say this)

    Good to see the Razr being upgraded finally. Late August is a far cry from the originally promised “6 weeks from the ICS release”. Better late than never…

    I couldn’t wait – installed ICS on my Xperia Arc already – works like a charm by the way…just remember to root it and remove all the Rogers bloatware!

    Late august for the RAZR? It’s already August 20, lets see if Rogers/Moto can keep their promise this time.

    Direct from the link. Version may be different, so you could possibly receive 4.0.4.

    Any word on an updates list from Bell, mainly for the Samsung Galaxy SII HD LTE? Last I heard was August and mentioned above it is already the 20th.

    Still no word on Sony Ion LTE (Good reason it’s $0-$49 on term) which shipped July 2012 with Gingerbread. Just got confirmation that Samsung S3 has been shipped to replace.

    This is why I ditched my RAZR and rogers.
    Almost a year since the phone came out, and still no ICS.
    I’ll be surprised if it happens before Septemeber

    Let me start by saying I love my RAZR. But seriously, Rogers. I can walk into a Bell store and buy a RAZR V with ICS. What’s the delay? We are getting ICS when Jelly Bean is already available? These upgrades have to happen much faster.

    Maybe someone better let rogers now that they should be working on Jelly Beans on all their newer devices instead of working on something that is older.. Just saying

    it is now august 29th, and still no RAZR XT910 update that is supposedly available—-end of august, according to Rogers, is a “tentative” date—–as the saying goes: patience is a virtue!!!!
