Sprint's Samsung Epic 4G Touch Getting ICS Soon? 4

Sprint has just outed the fact that the Samsung Galaxy S II Epic 4G Touch (phew!) may be getting updated to Ice Cream Sandwich soon. XDA member kc_exactly found a Sprint RDF file on their servers, dated February 10th, that lists the Android version as 4.0.3. Sprint has been good about trying to get updates out before other carriers, but Samsung's past record with the original Epic 4G left many customers wanting.

This RDF file points to an improved release process for Samsung if the update is indeed released soon, potentially making this the first Galaxy S II device to get upgraded to ICS. But remember, there is no date mentioned, and no guarantee it will be soon. We're keeping our fingers crossed!

I don’t think I’ll be holding my breath. I’m still waiting for the ICS update for my Sprint Nexus S 4G that was “coming soon”! (4 months later) ::still waiting::
