Have you tried contacting Virgin Mobile?

If you're in a rush, root your phone and install a custom ICS ROM. It's easyish to do.

Virgin call center couldn't didn't know what i was on about. Looked online and the just say they have it. Not to fussed about waiting. I have rooted a couple of android phones to remove skins and such but the virgin phones are a straight up build.

One of the guys here did it on his Vodafone GS2 using the three mobile ICS image. Says it's not really worth it - no real benefit functionally though apparently the text looks a little bit nicer.

The problem with the official samsung/carrier upgrade is I doubt you'll notice any difference. Touchwiz is Touchwiz in any version of android.

Have a look [url= http://www.galaxys2roms.com/ ]here [/url]for a list of roms.

I'm currently using Pure ICS from [url= http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1451346 ]here[/url]

I'm also using the 15 toggle mod from [url= http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=23933722&postcount=1279 ]here[/url] which allows you to modify the notification bar toggles.

It's working pretty well the only issue I have is some of the dialogs are black text on a grey background so not that easy to read but they are only in a few places.

Who's network do Virgin use ?

Three have rolled out, orange is in April but T-Mob and Voda haven't specified although T-Mob has said they're working on it ...
