USA: AT&T's Galaxy S II SkyRocket gets Android 4.0 ICS update

Apparently, it is not only AT&T's Galaxy Note that is getting some Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich treatment but also to the AT&T Galaxy S II SkyRocket. So, it looks like some happy AT&T customers might have got the update already. AT&T says that the update will be administered with the help of Samsung Kies so no OTA updates. But that is cooler than not getting any Ice Cream Sandwich, right? For more information about how to update your Galaxy S II SkyRocket, head over to AT&T. They have instructions on how to get the update there.

USA: AT&T's Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket receives Android 2.3.6 Gingerbread update

AT&T has apparently, according to UberGizmo, started to push an OTA update to the Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket. After being launched recently by AT&T, the carrier has already pushed the Android 2.3.6 Gingerbread update for their version of the Galaxy S II. Since its an OTA update your Skyrocket should notify you for a new software available for download but if you are hesitant, you can check it manually by tapping through Settings > Software Update. The said version of the platform is to fix a bug with regards to voice search on the Nexus S but the reason for this update coming to the Skyrocket is unknown. For those who are already running this version of Android on their Skyrocket, your input on the comments section is appreciated.

USA: HTC Vivid & Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket gets price cuts from AT&T

AT&T slashes the prices of their first 4G LTE smartphones that was available since yesterday. Before I go any further, the price cut actually depends on where you are. Some regions in the US might get that sweet price cut but not everyone gets it, unfortunately. Anyway, the SGS II Skyrocket is now being priced at $149.99 a full $100 off from it's $249.99 launch price. The HTC Vivid is now available for only $99.99 that's $50 off the launch price AT&T has given it. Now since not every part of the US gets the price cut, some of you might still get the higher price. Just enter your ZIP codes when you head to AT&T's website and hope your place is one of those who gets the lower priced Android devices.

Both devices, by the way, will be available in the US in November 6. Anyway, head over the break for the device's specs.
