Lol. If I sleep off for one night I will have missed my opportunities;)

I will just walk on the road today and find some bundle of notes = GS3 :p don't worry buddy I will send you pics and all :D

@bala finally I'm able to see what this elastic scrolling is. Being on GB for a week did the magic :D

By the way, I thought the phone.apk should not crash on paradroid when on 160dpi as it works fine on 120 dpi. But it crashes on 160 :confused:
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
Nice dream........
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
That looka nice. Hope they will come up with something very soon.

I was sleeping till now :p
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:

Very gud morning guys....
[Galaxy S II General] surya_mca:
@bala... Need to enable root for adb on dev options...
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
Hey. Tablet mode was too small for my eyes :) but it was really amazing. Somethings that no other ROM has it. Now on phone mode as of now with 240 as 160 crashes the phone app. Thought it shouldn't on paradroid ROM.

[Galaxy S II General] Prashanthme:
Hi guys.. I wanted to buy this Galaxy S2.. hav a plan for it.. But my doubt is its almost a year now after the official release i bought ACE that time.. But now i need more performance... SO thinking of buying this.. Currently price is 27 K here.. But i m afraid.. whether if this device ll have a continues support atleast in future??

Bcoz my ACE became legacy now :( Can anyone solve my doubt??
[Galaxy S II General] Ankit Tulsian:
Why buy s2 when we have s3?Don't worry s2 is still the smartest phone.It can survive one more year.
[Galaxy S II General] manojcitc:
its one of the device when it come to performance...you can do anything with it....search a little bit you can easily get device for around 25...and if you want second hand device here few member want to sell their device..talk to them...and yes there will be a continuos support of dev.. in future for sure..we have tons of rom to flash..so go for it..
[Galaxy S II General] Prashanthme:
Na not interested in seconds... And S3 s bit ostly for my budget rite now :P... Hope to meet u ppl again in this forum ;)
[Galaxy S II General] Ankit Tulsian:
If not in budget then better wait till price goes down and then buy.You will not regret it later and if by any chance S3 fails you always have this beast in the market at a lower price
[Galaxy S II General] exynoss:

[Galaxy S II General] Geekeek:
Hi folks, need a bit of help here.

Got my G replaced with I9100. Want to run CM9 now.

Do I root through CF Root first? And then install Siyah + CM ?

And plz let me know what's the popular (efficient) combo of kernel/rom that I can go ahead with.

Thanks a lot for the help and appreciate it if you can guide me wherever!
[Galaxy S II General] kachrukamble:
Yes, you need to root your phone for flashing custom Rom.

easy way is cf-root, download appropriate cf-Root for your current Rom from chainfire's thread and flash with odin
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
Most easy way is to go to this thread and flash the CM9 Resurrection edition through odin. You will be directly on CM9 http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=20841817

Instructions to flash the resurrection edition is in that link itself. Once you flash you have root and CM9 and then update to latest nightly.
[Galaxy S II General] Geekeek:
Yep have that guide ready. Also, how to reset counter after that?
[Galaxy S II General] Geekeek:
Correct me if I'm wrong but that includes both kernel and rom, yes?
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
Yup. Both ROM and CM9 kernel. But does not include google apps. That you need to flash separately as it's mentioned in the instructions.
[Galaxy S II General] Geekeek:
Thought so. Any things that I have to pay attention to in case things go wrong?

(First time, so you can understand the apprehension :D)
[Galaxy S II General] rak_ark:
Hey all.....finally back on this thread....please don't flame cause now I have jumped ship...:)

Bought the galaxy nexus yesterday:D and very happy with it....but couldn't stay away from this thread
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
Well if you are comfortable with odin flashing then there is nothing else to be worried out. Just double check you have non G version :D:D

This odin version is noob proof. So won't go wrong anywhere.
[Galaxy S II General] kachrukamble:
Thats why you need root access first to take nandroid backup of your current Rom, if anything goes wrong

Edit: if you are going odin way then not advised
[Galaxy S II General] Geekeek:
Yeah double checked that right there at the Samsung Center. They took a bloody month to replace it, not compalining though.

Appreciate the help. Will pop up again in case there is an issue.:rolleyes:

---------- Post added at 12:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:16 PM ----------

This link says that I need to be rooted to install this CM?

http://teamhacksung.org/wiki/index.php/Experimental:GT-I9100:How_to_install

So only the resrurrection edition can be flashed on an unrooted device?
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
Now since kachrukamble mentioned about nandroid backup.. I think when you flash this CM9 odin version you will loose all your data and apps. You haven't installed any right?
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
Poor bala 0 bids till now
[Galaxy S II General] Geekeek:
Very few so not an issue there. Can install again.
[Galaxy S II General] sannik:
guys I bought an s2... there a so many roms for this device.. so please help me decide which one to flash...I also have a doubt

can I flash cm9 directly from gingerbread???

or

should I flash ICS and then flash cm9??

and

which is stable version of cm7??? And cyanogenmod comes with a custom kernel or we should flash it separately??
[Galaxy S II General] chetan_mohanty:
I am smartphone-less now :(
[Galaxy S II General] deathfrag:
Try flashing one of the official stock ICS rom. That shouldn't be hard.

Then go for Hydrog3n ROM. There are other ROMs too, but I'm happy with Hydrog3n for the moment.
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
If you installing cm9 from recovery you will need root access. But odin can be flashed on top on unrooted as far as my understanding goes. So CM9 = Rooted.
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
oh......Buy my Nokia N900 for just 12k :p
[Galaxy S II General] Geekeek:
I see. And how do I get back to stock? I'll have to flash stock kernel & rom separately right?

Btw, this includes CWM yeah?
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
No no! Buy my GS2 for just 25K with tablets UI and amazing themes with scratched screen guard :p better than that N900 I tell you.
[Galaxy S II General] kachrukamble:
Congrats:D

How r u feeling now:p
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
Well ROMs will have the stock kernel. So you need not flash them separately. But if you need custom kernel then you will be flashing it separately.

To get back to stock you can either flash the ROM in CWM if there is a zip file avaliable. If not then you can always flash via Odin.

And yes cm9 odin version includes CWM.
[Galaxy S II General] Geekeek:
That pretty much covers everything. Cheers.
[Galaxy S II General] Aijazji:
Congratez

first Tell Me its GT-9100 Or GT-9100G ?

If Its GT-9100 Then you Can Use Any Custom Rom Which Are in Forum..

If its GT-9100G Then You Can Able to use Few Roms which Support G model
[Galaxy S II General] darshanbangre:
Guys any custom roms based on stock ics :confused: ??
[Galaxy S II General] ancilary:
hi

i m new to s2 but i was using nexus s before

now i have few questions please clear my doubts

1.for now my phone is not rooded if i install a custom kernel with odin will the phone be rooted if that rom has root?

2.for now my phone is not rooded if i install a custom rom with odin will the phone be rooted if that rom has root?

thank you
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
1. Yes. Installing a custom kernel gives you root access. Like CF-Root kernel by chainfire.

2. Yes. if you find a custom ROM with odin flashable version your phone is rooted again.
[Galaxy S II General] kachrukamble:
1. yes custom kernel will root your phone..

2. I didn't tried any pre rooted custom Odin Rom till now

best way is go with chinfires cf-root method, it will give you root access.
[Galaxy S II General] darshanbangre:
1. Root your phone with rooted kernel n then install custom rom via recovery

2. Root your phone with rooted kernel n then install custom rom via recovery
[Galaxy S II General] exynoss:

[Galaxy S II General] chetan_mohanty:
sad ;)
[Galaxy S II General] ancilary:
chroot kernel required for my version is untested . is it safe?

and i dont have kies installed should i install before trying to flash using odin? or doesnt require kies?
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
Hey when we were on GB like many months back, I remember there was a custom ROM as odin version? You remember?
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
You should install kies of you want odin to work. But you can simple install the drivers in this link and tho should do http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=24852060&postcount=154

And under which firmware you are in?
[Galaxy S II General] ancilary:
im in kwxl1 official
[Galaxy S II General] kachrukamble:
You need to install either kies or Samsung mobile drivers so that your pc recognize the phone.

Cf-root is pretty much safe.

Ya, that gb days, I really forgot about that
[Galaxy S II General] exynoss:
Hi good afternoon everyone
[Galaxy S II General] ancilary:
its about song quality

320 bit has more quality than that of 128

for more info : http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_is_the_difference_between_128kbps_and_320_kbps_mp3_files
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
@manoj. The bit rates are different. The higher the better quality I guess.

And bata nahi woh link yahan allowed hai ki nahi.
[Galaxy S II General] manojcitc:
one folder has a bitrate of 128 and other has 320...if you have good peace of ear phone try 320 kbps version...its better if you distinguish between them...higher bitrate means high song size...
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:
128 kbps is like the pirated version of movie and 320 kbps is just original in quality:D

Link is not allowed here BTW
[Galaxy S II General] kachrukamble:
@ manoj

I am afraid of another ban can happen to you!

Why r u doing such act which xda doesn't allow?
[Galaxy S II General] exynoss:
Thanks guys this is new thing for me a mp3 songs has also diff-diff qualities.

Time to change my all songs to 320kbps :D

@harsha u know hindi ??????
[Galaxy S II General] chetan_mohanty:

[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:

Who will donate for me for nothing? so never tried it
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
THanks all, glad im helpful to many here :)
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
I thought I will use SII for few years. The only thing making S2 out of the league is the HD screen. Got to stick with non HD screen for years :/

@bala can you share the ebay link here?

And congrats on 1K thanks. You see very helpful here.
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
same...trying to control mind saying no no no much better coming next year or in dec
[Galaxy S II General] kachrukamble:
Not only HD screen but loads of new features in S3 making S2 out of the competition.

Some people wiil say that features can be ported on S2..

but...... It won't give you real satisfaction.

And of course with S3 there will be new era of development..
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
Trust me. The competition is so close and strong that the companies will give the market as days go on. In December there will be a device which will make the current devices too out of the league.

@kachru yeah but on personal level I'm eager only about the HD screen :)
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:

[Galaxy S II General] chetan_mohanty:
we will.!! we will sell s3..

one thing i learned..Galaxy phones have huge resale value!!! I never knew that..

i jus posted an ad on OLX..

and around 10 people called me up in 2 days..all local buyers..excited about the Galaxy :D
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
Exactly :p that's what Bala meant by where there is a will there is a way :p
[Galaxy S II General] kachrukamble:
you're right!

s3 will have bette3r resale value :D
[Galaxy S II General] kachrukamble:

[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:
So if I want to buy S3 then I sell my S2 for 20K and then invest another 15K myself and buy it? :banghead:

Just hoping it would sell for 25K and buy S3 for 30K :p this won't happen again right?
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
what you said 1st is right :D
[Galaxy S II General] kachrukamble:

[Galaxy S II General] chetan_mohanty:

[Galaxy S II General] Ankit Tulsian:
Dropped my phone from first floor.A 100rs cover saved my ass.Not even a single scratch.
[Galaxy S II General] Harsha Raj:

Well all you knows that Cellphone business is not that profitable, heavy competition makes it difficult these days.

I do flash/upgrade Samsung's smartphone for him, in my free time.

I almost flashed every Samsung smart phone for him.

some time very funny things happens when he charges rs.300 to customer for too many attempt and locked phones. I only format these phones with 3e combo cwm in second. He is impressed with me.

Now you can guess, S3 is not big deal for me!
[Galaxy S II General] ronhoover88:

Guys I need a good screen protector/scratch guard for my I9100. Please advice me the best one out in the market. There are some which are washable and re-applicable. It's need to be available in Indian online stores, please don't suggest an international one which ain't available here :)

One more thing, I've never applied a scratch guard before, so can I do it, is it really hard to apply properly? I heard that bubble goes inside and causes problem.
