Might I suggest you pose these questions to samsung since it is they who can answer whether or not there is going to be any update and to what Android version. In ICS and in Jelly Bean, you draw a rectangle on the screen at start up to activate it, currently, you go to apps, settings, accessibility and check talk back and uncheck Mobile Accessibility. That won't change.

Honestly, while I don't really know a lot about about that phone, I have seen that if u ever do get jelly bean, talkback is gona be your best bet.

        The ultra didn't even get 2.3.6 until I want to say april of
        this year. It
        was stuck on 2.3.4 wich had a bad camera issue.  Actually,
        there is plenty
        of interest on that phone if you look into it on the forums.
         The interest
        is there, it is just that I don't think they can figure out
        how to make a
        custom rom for it.  In all seriousness, it should work. The
        specs on that
        phone are good enough for ics, so I don't know why Samsung
        isn't even
        bothering.

        As far as speech on gingerbread,  what I did was use talkback
        in conjunction
        with MA. So I had the best of both worlds.  I set MA to use my
        default
        speech ingine, so that you didn't know when you were switching
        between the
        two, but me personally that is what I did.

        To answer your first question, the answer is most likely not.
         They would
        have done so by now if they were going to.  In fact, there is
        no custom ROM
        for it and that is generally a sign.  The presence of a custom
        Rom doesn't
        guaranty support, but the lack of one on an older handset,
        usually means
        that there is not enough interest in the phone to warrant
        development.  In
        that situation, the longer the handset is on the market
        without an update,
        the likelihood of an official upgrade diminishes.  I would
        venture to say
        that, though I could be wrong, you have reached the limit of
        what will be
        done in the future.  Assuming they will though, you can be
        assured at this
        point only ICS will be released, this means no Jelly Bean.  No
        manufacture
        skips a version of an operating system to go to the next.
         Having said that,
        Talk back works better than MA but Ma offers enough features
        that it is
        really a trade off and depends on the skin used whether Ma is
        better or not.

            Hey guys,

            I am running the samsung transform ultra on boost and it
            works great.
            Here's my question going forward.  Is android going to
            release ICS or
            Jelly Bean to this phone?
            If so what's the most reliable screen reader to use at
            this point?
            Has ma released a version that works under ICS or Jelly
            Bean, or are
            we gonna have to go with something like talkback?

            Thanks,Jed
