4.0.3 LP2 leak is out

http://www.sammobile.com/2012/01/14/new-android-4-0-3-leak-by-samsung-for-sgs2-i9100xxlp2/
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
Yea, been playing with it for one hour now....

GJ Samsung.
[Galaxy S II General] spoiltz:
After discount of 10% i got it at Rs 2000,from LETSBUY.COM, no card reader either!!!! :(
[Galaxy S II General] kachrukamble:
So, what is your first impression with this leak?
[Galaxy S II General] Hrithan2020:
Would love to have your impression of the leak. In fact, was looking in general section for your thread. :p

By the way, once you flash this, you'll need to flash to older gb build to get gb bootliader, and can then only restore nandroid backup, right?
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
I've just added it. More points and polishing should be done later.
[Galaxy S II General] emze:
i am doing the LP2 download. it is taking for ever.

OT: the place where i work at, has a good wifi network(8mbps usually) but the glitch is, i can not visit any filesharing sites. the best i can do is, use my reliance net connect, start the download with direct download mode and wait for ages. is there any way i can bypass the firewall? anybody?

i am a doctor, i not supposed to be techsavy

First post here..thought I will share the results of the DDKL1 modem which I am using for last few days..highly recommended as I am getting excellent wifi strength network strength and result of vodafone 3g in gurgaon..attached are screenshots Test done at different times..I never got these speeds on my sgs2 before which is now two months old...

can anyone suggest a ROM as good and stable as checkrom been on it for

more than a month..need something new now :)

i am also using the same modem. Its really nice. After checkrom, u can move to hyperdroid. But it doesn't has same auto customizations as checkrom. But i have heard its good, and supports multi dpi.

Sorry hidemyass is not good for downloading

This is good for downloading: http://christechtv.com/mybrowser/

On some download websites u will get a file named browser.php u have to just rename to it original format like if its name was xyz.rar then u have to rename browser.php to xyz.rar then u have it but mostly all are works good like mediafire,hotfile,etc downloads great

U can download unlimited without any restriction and without any download limit

Thanks! I'm a newbie... so want to use Galaxy S2 to my fullest. Thats why I am asking so many questions about stuff. Where do I put this modem.bin file in Odin while flashing?

Select the file in phone tab in Odin and flash it.

To use s2 to fullest you also have to read a lot :)
[Galaxy S II General] mrcreativity:
I've noticed that i get a faster location and GPS lock with the Indian Firmware as compared to the European firmware

Does this have anything to do with the modem version?

The reason Im asking is i want to maintain this same ease of gps lock and faster location if i upgrade to a newer european firmware.

I had same issue. But now working fine.

I just flashed KP8 modem and deleted all APN , created new apn manually
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
dude you are in our indian thread, no one will ever flame you :) , ericson always rocks in looks, so if she is not modding anything its always a nice mobile to have.

Yaa SE's phones are very sexy..She wont mod..she wont allow me to touch her phone :(..Coz she ges freaked out with all those things i do with my phone...bootloops,softbricks,etc., lolzzz

BTW Arc S is looking so cool...but HW wise so lame ;)
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
Try HTC...........
[Galaxy S II General] kachrukamble:
Yes, Htc & its sense quietly brilliant

@ Chetan

Think once to port Htc sense like theme for our s2, it will be great

Has anyone tried XXLP2 (ICS Leaked)

Guys, is it safe to flash the latest LEAKED ICS ROM XXLP2 from here : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1420996

Has anyone flashed it over the XXKL1 (India latest gingerbread)? Am tempted to flash XXLP2......any suggestions?
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
You are Right.......If she want to kill chetan Than Any Samsung mobile might work :p
[Galaxy S II General] spoiltz:
+1 to that!!

@chetan Gift her Xperia Arc s. It has got killer looks. Also, the development support for xperia phones is very good. + SE itself provides update for quite a time for their phones. So, its futureproof too.

My GF is much of an iphone fan. I had to gift her 4s, once it released in India.
[Galaxy S II General] TheMegastar:
Hi! Currently on XXKL1. Want to flash a new ROM which is stable and works smooth. Pls suggest whether to go for XILA2 (Official GB) or XXLP2 (Leaked ICS)???
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
iPhone 4s released in India....
[Galaxy S II General] Debadatta:
I think not telling that to his Gf will save him a lot of money :p

The Lumia 710 maybe. Easy to use. No mods. U can call, check mails and text.

[Galaxy S II General] sam142000:
So is it necessary to use while flashing a firmware? Yesterday I tried to flash LP1 without the pit file and it didnt work.
[Galaxy S II General] spoiltz:
It is not necessary to flash pit file, while flashing a firmware.

See this thread:-

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1075278

Its written in BOLD WORDS, that Do not flash pit file, while flashing a firmware.

Then why didnt my flashing of LP1 work?

Is there a proper, verified step by step guide to flash LP1 or LP2 which I can follow??

Is this correct?
[Galaxy S II General] chetan_mohanty:
Actually i dont like HTC phones.But the UI is awesome.Yes i will work on porting some themes from HTC sensation :D

I think she likes looks a lot.She is fashion conscious ;)

iPhone 4s is nice.Say hi to her from me :D

Yaa she also thought of Lumia 710.Have to do little bit of more research

Feedback for XILA2 and XXLP2

Guys, no replies so far??

Asked you for your feedback on these two new ROMs, XILA2 (Official GB) and XXLP2 (unofficial leaked ICS)......which one is better???
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:
That's a awesome phone but a single core snapdragon 2nd generation with adreno 205 gpu

But in 2 months Xperia s is coming with the same specs of sensation xe like 3rd generation snapdragon processor and adreno 220 gpu and its having transparent line from the bottom dividing the phone

Sony Ericsson itself came on xda and released a fully working ics rom for Xperia arc s,Xperia ray,Xperia Neo v

But its upon u

I was surely buying Xperia arc s but changed my mind somehow to get s2 because of specs

And Official Cyanogenmod is also their for Xperia series
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
An unfinished Beta product never can be completed with a finished one. So LA2 or L1 will definitely be more stable than LP2, and yes better.

Still LP2 is good one and worth a try.
[Galaxy S II General] spoiltz:
Said!! she says the same!

Check my dropbox shared folder, made what you requested, and tell me howz it??
[Galaxy S II General] kachrukamble:
Thanks for consideration
[Galaxy S II General] TheMegastar:
Just flashed to XILA2. Smooth as butter. Yes, I too thought it was better to go with a perfected Official GB rather than a Beta unofficial ICS. So now on XILA2 rooted. Looks good so far.
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
Stable enough for me and worthy of using it as daily ROM. You could try it once to see by yourself, don't forget to take the Nandroid before.

I had to come back because smart dialing feature was missing (not the dedicated smart dialing but a feature which I miss badly since BB and got back in this phone, mentioned it in my thread), and I have to make plenty calls a day.

Phone not restarting after applying UOT kitchen cooked file

Hi there again!

I was on XILA2 firmware on my Galaxy S II phone. Cooked this file in the UOT Kitchen. Applied the UOT.zip file in the Recovery mode. But the problem is that the phone is not restarting after that either from the Recovery mode or from the Power button. It gets stuck at the "Samsung Galaxy S II GT-9100" screen. Does not move forward after that screen.

What to do now? How to complete the reboot process? I faced this problem earlier also with Other ROMs, but the phone used to restart after giving it 4-5 tries (from the Power Button). But this time, it is not restarting at all after applying the UOT zip. Have tried a dozen times. Pls help.
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
@ megastar

did you tried removing battery ,reinsert it and boot? , are you sure you dont get the recovery mode by pressing the key combo? if not then, you have to flash some kernel tar file via odin to get back the recovery atleast.

---------- Post added at 05:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:06 PM ----------

had it for few hours was good to use, also tried to restore my whole mess of apps backup via TB, a very few didnt restored, it should incompatible with ics as of now.

its sad to see none of the launchers except trebuchet uses the most talked feature of ics the hardware acceleration, i wonder how much time these app devs are going to take to implement this feature. all they have to do is to add flag to enable gpu acceleration in the manifest.xml file, i think there something more than that hence the delay.

if ics doesnt make the user experience smooth then whole point of ics via touchwiz is a waste(hope samsung wont let us down)
[Galaxy S II General] smanas786:
hello everybody...finally updated my s2 to .6 ....that too from a cyber cafe...service centre guys still not accepting it official...though updating through kies doesn't seem to me a hectic, as somebody has posted earlier. enjoying my s2 and waiting for ics OTA (actual reason for upgrade).

[Galaxy S II General] Hrithan2020:
Guys, I flashed the KL1 modem, and all of a sudden, I am getting 3g on my Airtel. :D.

Anyone else has this experience? (had it till 3 months back, after which Airtel seemed to be giving lower speeds in wcdma mode compared to gsm only)
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:
lol

wcdma is 3g/H+ and gsm is 2g/E/G
[Galaxy S II General] TheMegastar:
URGENT help needed :(

Guys, I have now flashed the XILA2 ROM Three four times and while I used to get the network signal H+ for the first two times I flashed this new ROM, now I am not even getting the network signal. I cannot even access the Mobile Networks option in Settings, when I click on it asks me to insert a SIM card even when the SIM card is already there in the phone! What to do now?
[Galaxy S II General] chetan_mohanty:
Ok..Please check IMEI Asap in About phone>>status and report ...If its ok.You can be relieved..Anyways if IMEI is Ok..You can just factory reset and flash again:)
[Galaxy S II General] Hrithan2020:
Lol! as if I don't know. There is a big difference between a 3g/h+ icon and getting 3g speeds. Airtel seemed to be deliberately decreasing the speed a tiny bit when my phone was in wcdma mode when compared to edge.

Guess, not many people had a similar experience as mine.
[Galaxy S II General] TheMegastar:
IMEI is showing as "Unknown", IMEI SV is Unknown, Service State is showing as Out of Service.

What is the problem?
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
You got IMEI problem....You have a IMEI backup right? .........................I have a strange problem guys Morning I got a call When I saw the It not showing any thing I mean mobile was looking like it is in sleep mode but phone is ringing tried to press Power button still can't see nothing than removed battery and re-inserted after few seconds It had a soft-boot and everything is back now..Any Idea why?
[Galaxy S II General] chetan_mohanty:
**** !! Go back to XWKL1 2.3.6 ASAP and check IMEI again.Please tell me you have backed of your EFS !! If after flashing any 2.3.6 based ROM you still dont get IMEI restore RFS using hellcat's KTool.If you have not backed up then i am afraid you have to go to service centre or may be contact odia .. :(

I seriously hope you have backed up the EFS

Kernel problem.Siyah still has this???!!Phone goes to deep sleep and cant come back :D No worries .You have to live with those minor problems now or then..

Guys i saw Arc S over here http://www.ebay.in/itm/NEW-SEALED-P...bile_Phones&hash=item46000b796e#ht_4730wt_922 on ebay.Its 23K but on flipkart its showing 28K ..Am i missing something over here?Is the model on ebay different?
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
I'm on Siyah 2.3.4 only...Lazy to update it :p I think in latest one it is fixed...Will download the latest one after few minutes.....Thanks uncle I mean Bro :p
[Galaxy S II General] TheMegastar:
What is EFS? Lol...I have not backed it up. Ok, my battery is charging up, I think I will have no option but to revert back to XWKL1 if XILA2 is not working. But XILA2 was working very well the first time I flashed it. So what really happened?
[Galaxy S II General] chetan_mohanty:
Uncle???I am only 25 for god's sake :mad:!!lolzz ;)
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
LOL Read the last line I said I mean Bro :p

---------- Post added at 09:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:03 PM ----------

You lost IMEI number............Even if it is not fixed after changing back to old rom you used Only way to fix it Samsung Service Center(If you don't have IMEI backup)...
[Galaxy S II General] TheMegastar:
How to make an EFS/IMEI backup anyway? Any idea how did this happen? I have only been on Stock ROMs. Never tried any other ROM. Only been on Official Samsung Roms

Even my 3 years old K790i does that!
[Galaxy S II General] goldbergx:
Not sure then man.
[Galaxy S II General] goldbergx:
The Yamaha chip is actually the problem - there was a different chip on the Galaxy S and the driver was open source (probably) and the guys on XDA had done modifications to it so that it gave awesome Voodoo sound (don't ask me why they called it that :) ) I think the guys at CM are working on this, might turn out to be something good, might not...

Also, I tried out Player Pro (just the free version) - and it sounded pretty much the same as PowerAmp on my HD448s (using same settings and the same songs on both) - and Power Amp gives you more control over the files (at least the paid version) and has a cool transparent widget :p so I guess I'll stick to that one - to each his own as you said!
[Galaxy S II General] karan999:
Hmmm.valid point.but i beleive, the Yamaha chip is loud enough to blast your eardrums.

We all should patiently wait for the change.Atleast, lets hope for the best.

For now, with Player Pro, i am satisfied with the in ear noise cancellation headphones.

But when i use my over ear headphones, that is where i curse the GS II sound output be it any android app u r using.

i'll patiently wait for a change.

Karan.

Hi Friends

Last week I was able to connect my SGS2 to thru KIES but since yesterday, I'm not able to perform this task. Whenever I connect SGS2 to Kies, for some time, KIES keep on searching for the device and then says Unable to Connect to Device.

I use Vodafone but 3g is yet not available in my town. Available in Jaipur but not Kota.

So I took my friend's sim and got a 2g pack activated on my phone. My friend advised me to use 3g network only and then use the net. Idk how but I am getting download speed of 150kb/s to 200kb/s.

Any idea how or why? I'm too happy what ever the reason for this speed may be. Airtel btw.
