How to Update the Samsung Nexus S to Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich
Google’s iconic smartphone, the Samsung Nexus S, is now finally getting the royal treatment as Samsung will soon be rolling out the official Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS) upgrade for the device. As we wait for the official update to be released, we’ve managed to stumble upon a leaked version of Android’s latest offering for the Nexus S.
As a precaution, this is not the official ICS update but a leaked version circulating around the Net. Luckily for Nexus S owners, you can easily apply this update on your device.
Considering this is still the beta version, you may face certain issues in running applications and functionalities like the Face Unlock feature and NFC capability due to the Nexus S’s limited hardware. The core features, though, are present in the leaked update, and if there are minor glitches or bugs, those will be taken care of once the official version is finally released during the next few months.
Along with a host of enticing new features, the ICS firmware will surely make your device feel like brand-new. If you can’t wait for the official update and want to try out ICS ahead of your fellow Nexus S users, then follow the steps below to put ICS on your Nexus S.
Instructions
On your first boot, it may take a couple of minutes for your newly installed firmware to take place but after this process your device should function normally.
Congratulations! You have successfully updated your Nexus S to Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich.
