So this dual boot will enable me to have CM9 and Samsung Stock ICS ROM both at a time right?
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
Thanks bro.....I need change log also.......and Bugs list........So will wait
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:
Any ics rom

miui 4,aokp,any samsung custom roms,cm9 based roms
[Galaxy S II General] Lost Monk:
Okay I also tried Teamviewer app.

Both are more or less same.

None supports direct audio transmission. At least it didnt work for me, tried it several times.

Window scrolling is better with JumpDesktop. But Teamviewer's mouse-interaction is fast.

Since Teamviewer is widely used for pc-pc screen sharing & conference, I think Teamviewer is better bet compared to JumDesktop as your client or buddy might not have JumpDesktop s/w on his computer. Most of the people know Teamviewer for pc.

I had to take my S2 to the Samsung Service Centre on Monday as my home button was not working.The next day i get a call from Samsung that they need to change the motherboard on the phone as that was a part of the problem.This got me suspicious as i have read horror stories about Samsung support.I collected my phone today but i am worried that they may have replaced my mobo with an inferior one.Is there any way i could know if its the same mobo as the one that comes with the S2 originally?Here are my system info files
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
Need to change motherboard for Home button problem? Never heard that.........Try to take it to other SSC and see what they will say
[Galaxy S II General] mysterion86:
The home button issue is now sorted out and its working fine.They even chaned the front panel which had a few scratches on the sides.Now it looks completely new.

Just worried about why they had to change the mobo??
[Galaxy S II General] kachrukamble:
Its not horror story at all. meantime download the app zdevice test and check with the app if that app shows chipset as exynos one then do not worry:)
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
Yeah they always say they need to change the motherboard don't they? Even for replacing a screw I guess.

Google search says its Exynos.Guess i dont have to worry:D

Thanks for the help

yes
[Galaxy S II General] kachrukamble:
I Guess Samsung doesn't want to disclose their formula at all.

So that SC has no rights to touch anything.

Just replace the whole part and send back to Samsung.

Samsung itself might work on such issue at their headquarter only and distribute the part on demand of SC. I may be wrong and it may be true. Who knows..
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
Yeah do like what sahibunlimited said. Try the mirror I posted with dropbox link. I don't know whether you should bother with md check sum later on.

Ohh.. I successfully dual booted, one is Stock ICS and other one is CM9:D

This is confusing, I Downloaded 8.1 MB file from mirror, just revisited there and the file is now 118 mb.
[Galaxy S II General] atulalvenkar:
You have KL1 ROM which is a Exynos build, so you do have correct board.

All chips on a phone are soldered to the motherboard itself, very few components can be replaced by plugging it out e.g camera module i guess. A lot of time gets wasted to desolder the component and resolder it back.Keeping stock of each component for different phone is also difficult and expensive, it's easier to stock just motherbords. Plus it's not very easy to de-solder something that small you need to precise else you fry other stuff. Instead of all that it's easier to replace.

Same happens in case of laptops too. Even if you graphic card fries, they need to replace the whole main board as everything is soldered together to keep the form factor small.

Dual Boot?......What are the + and - points of it.....How to do it?
[Galaxy S II General] lovesingh25:
I am on ki3 2.3.5 from last 1 week. there are no major issues about it but I feels when I use the stock web browser my phone tends to heat up much more and battery starts to drain at a much faster rate as it used to do when I was on kf3..... does anybody else facing same problem???

[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
Yep,You are right
[Galaxy S II General] TheMegastar:
The article does say that the size of the icons will be hopefully OPTIONAL. So you can always choose to keep the current size. And moreover, it is not clear whether the so called "update" will only update the Icons thing or will it give us the firmware update (android 2.3.5 at least if not 2.3.7) we have been waiting for. Can't trust this article. Seems to be nonsense. If the Icon size change is not optional then nobody will take this update! What utter nonsense!

Read this article. If it is a genuine article, then it make you wish Android had SIRI. :(

Two things I'll want my next phone to have :

1. An improved, fully functional SIRI and

2. NFC.

Owners of SGS II should buy a new phone only if it has these two features coz right now SGS II has every other feature.

Galaxy S 2 Car Kit

Hola,

Does any one here own a Galaxy S 2 Car kit with the dock and the charger and all. Tell me something how does the phone charge while it is docked ? does the dock have a inward MHL female port like the phone itself ? Or we can do it one at a time i.e. Docking or charging ? I'm planning to buy one what is the best deal out there (ebay / flipkart) ? I came across some one quoting 1924/- is it a fair price ?
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
You are right.... and some say NFC chip is inbuilt for SGS2 (International version) and some say no and some are saying Soon there will be Sims with NFC Chip so you can use it If your mobile is not having NFC chip...Google said Android 4.0 comes with NFC..When it is released it will tell if our mobile supports NFC or not

I'm using SGS2 Carc Dock and it has two post at the back and one port at bottom.

I already have a car charger. So I am thinking of simply getting a universal car mount for Rs. 500-750/-. Why pay Rs. 2-2.5k?
[Galaxy S II General] digi_fort:
The generic car charger they say gives 500 mA which while using the phone with GPS or voice functions causes the phone to receed battery the dock here is provided with a 700 mA charger what is the rating for your charger. Also i believe the Car Dock here is custom made for S 2.
[Galaxy S II General] sandeep10:
Samsung car charger is 700mA, which you need anyway. Why pay 2k for simply a holder.

Updating to latest firmware

Hi,

I'm new to this forum and android too. Please be patient and help me to get rid of firmware update issue.

I'm in Bangladesh & bought my precious SGS2 I9100 from Samsung Shop with warranty. Here we don't have any Carrier issue or jail-breaking or other problems.

My SGS2 Phone details are given below:

PDA: I9100XWKF3

PHONE: I9100DDKE4

CSC: I9100ODDKF3

Build Info: Thu Jun 9 18:16:44 KST 2011

Android version 2.3.3

Baseband version I9100DDKE4

Kernel version 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKF3-CL276555 root@DELL101 #2

Build number GINGERBREAD.XWKF3

Now, i know there are so many firmware updates after my version. When i connect the phone to kies it says "this version of the device cannot be updated". I think, its because of the region. but I'm with the same region of India and i saw on net India got new firmware updates via kies, but I'm stuck with my default one.

So please tell me what should i do to update to 2.3.4 or 2.3.5. I saw so many rooting and upgrading guides online. Can i choose from them and which firmware I'm confuse. And will it void my warranty if i update using ODIN (i read already that upgrading firmware doesn't require rooting). I'm willing to take the risk but please can you give the link for my stock firmware so that i can revert the OS if i messed up?

All the helps will be appreciated.

thanks and sorry for such a long post

Sayem.
[Galaxy S II General] OrrPenn18:
For how much did you buy it? :)
[Galaxy S II General] emze:
upgraded to KI8, waiting for the first calibration of the battery. i don't find much difference between the KI3 and KI8. the ugly blue scroll thingy has virtually disappeared. i rarely see it during normal usage. browser tab switching animation is a lot better than before(in the KI3, it looked like the dev was half asleep while doing the browser part). no issues with external SD(like mentioned in other post. no gTalk with video(something i was really looking forward to)

COMING UP: details on battery life.
[Galaxy S II General] digi_fort:
Hi Sayem,

Seems you have the phone made for indian region.

What firmware you have is the latest available in India as well. There are other firmwares released for different regions which we guys flash to keep ourselves updated.

As for kies did you download the KIES from Samsung India Site ? If not do that and try again.

Flashing stock samsung updates of a different region via ODIN does not void warranty.

There are many guides available for upgrading firmware in this thread itself well the best be you go straight to intratech's thread and read the guide for updating firmware.
