ICS is at least 2-3 months from now. So I'd say you enjoy the 2.3.5 in the mean time.

Flash any good 2.3.5 ROM.

Yea, I have it too. At first it was gone with that wonder method, but now it's not. I don't care it anymore, after the full charge notification I just keep it in charge for another 15-20 mins...

The more and more I am getting used with the device I am getting more ignorant with it, I don't even check battery backup anymore. It is serving me Netbook stuffs and I am happy :D

You can upgrade your rom without rooting using Odin.

Get the latest 2.3.5 from following link

Download Indian CSC from following link

Downalod Odin

Kill all the kies related processes

Launch Odin and connect your phone to PC

Select the rom you downloaded in PDA section and select the downloaded Indian CSC in the CSC section.

Make sure repartition is unchecked.

If Odin has detected your device click run.

The reason i din't go to custom ROMs ........ :p :D ........ more over our phone compared to iPhone that's an insult who was that retard :mad:

Dude get some one else to do it in your supervision........

I don't get it what's with ppl flashing the indian CSC ......... my phone works super with XEU no problems what so ever .........
[Galaxy S II General] naturist:
Same here, havn't flashed csc file and still the apn settings etc are auto detected.

Edit: CSC is the consumer software customisation and is specific to geographical region and carriers. It contains the software packages specific to that region, carrier branding and also APN settings for data connection, MMS etc for your service provider.

CSC has nothing to do with what languages the firmware supports and it will not add keyboard language support either.

So even if you flash without CSC, its ok. :)

FUS downloader is a utility which allows us to probe into the samsung servers if any newer firmware version is available for the firmware released for a specific region. You just have to input a few parameters and it'll reply back with the latest version available for the details entered. You can also download the firmware from there but it is encrypted and needs to be decrypted before flashing :D

A simple reboot fixed it. Thank god I didn't need to break my head figuring that one out but Google still aren't in the clear, although their Play store updates have improved the speed & performance of the app there are still some annoying niggles here & there & issues when downloading apps (927 error when downloading apps 25% of the time & that's get very irritating now, huge delay in between initiating the download & the actual download beginning which I can attribute to the aforementioned error)

Not the next Nexus definitely but a beauty of a high end phone :fingercrossed: with an Intel processor inside (pun intended:p). Google will take their time to get Motorola back on its feet & running successfully once again & only then will they think of making a Nexus phone via Motorola.

You faced no issues on WP7 cause you never rooted/rom'ed it. I never faced any problems on stock firmware on my SII be it GB or ICS. I have 2 colleagues one with SGS and one with Note and they have never faced any issues and love their phones.

We are used to mod'ing our phones which leads to instability.If you want to compare stability you need to compare stock unrooted phones. If that's taken into consideration almost all OS'es are on par.
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
Well I am rooted, right, but I haven't modified anything, anything at all. For last 15 months I am patiently using Stock ROM's. No interest in any custom ROM's or any modification. But yes, it's right that problems were much much less in GB, unlike ICS, which for gods sake tortured me insanely with it's SOD and nonsense.

So yes, if I compare GB with WP, then okay it's a valid competition, but still the smoothness I find in WP is super, the only OS I like after iOS, for it's superb fluidity, and sorry I can't compete with it with Android. It really doesn't matter to me that I'm using a Dual core device and be proud of it, especially when the OS is not optimized well, I'd rather use my Single core Lumia, which performs faster/stabler than my SII for the basic features, and that's what I use for my primary purpose anyway.

[Galaxy S II General] atulalvenkar:
Hardware composer is not broken to be fixed.The problem is that in it's current form it does not have the changes required for project butter.

So in that sense no it's not fixed.

Looking at Sammy's update 7 kernel sources it looks like Sammy is moving towards a common kernel. If thats true we should be getting working butter when SGS3 JB kernel sources are released. If not we need to wait for SGS2/Note JB kernel sources.

Even without butter most of the enhancements made to core OS work and atleast I find CM10 to be lot more smoother than CM9. Some bugs I had earlier e.g battery drain and RIL issues seems to be fixed.I flashed the first nightly and everything is working better than expected.
