Finally the wait is over. Android 2.3.4 firmware for SGS2 was leaked by ficeto. This reportedly solves the Android OS Battery issue.

XDA Thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1159920

Download Link Stock XXKG1 : http://www.multiupload.com/2EMBQMYF4V (via ficeto)

Well I'm installing it right now and will update with initial impressions!

To install via ODIN choose: (Note: This will wipe your Apps but SD Card and Internal Storage Data will remain intact)

Phone - MODEM_I9100XXKG1_REV_02_CL1034110.tar

PDA - CODE_I9100XXKG1_CL349526_REV02_user_low_ship.tar

CSC - GT-I9100-CSC-MULTI-OXAKG1.tar

There's no need to use the .pit file and do not tick mark re-partition.

To Root:

Flash with any CF Root based Kernel

Flash back to Stock KG1 to remove Yellow Triangle

Stock KG1 Kernel Link : http://www.multiupload.com/UNNM2UKPBC (via intratech)

Pass: intratech@XDA

Edit:

Ok so the Screen On lag is gone when you wake up via Home Button, but still there when you wake up via Power Button.

Google Talk Video support

Android OS eats up considerably less battery.

Will add more changes as I find.

Edit 2:

Well can't say that the Android OS battery hog issue has been totally fixed. Android OS still shows a lot of usage. Android System process on other hand seems to have gotten down.

Battery @ 87% (with Juice Defender running)

Apparently the Android OS Battery issue is a problem caused by Samsungs Drivers which hog the CPU even while the device is in standby mode.

Holy Cow!!
[Galaxy S II General] tfn:
I think I'll just update the firmware as I am not rooted, and don't wish to as quiet happy with the stock rom :D

Does it have all the files PDA/phone/CSc ? if you could post it would be nice..

downloading anyway :)
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
Carry on, I will wait for your feedback about it eagerly.

PS- It's posted on Samfirmware too, and it's 282 MB. So definitely it's a a full firmware.

[Galaxy S II General] GuestK00431:
Its true, installing the update now.
[Galaxy S II General] ask77:
Downloading now. Also waiting for first impressions.
[Galaxy S II General] Tanmay®:
Yes it has all those files.
[Galaxy S II General] FtrV8:
How are you guys installing this? Odin or can it be done without that. I am completely stock but want the update.
[Galaxy S II General] mariosergio2112:
my fone is KE4. can i put this new firmware on it?
[Galaxy S II General] mchimney:
Beginning the flashing process now
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
I can't wait for the feedback....C'Mon...
[Galaxy S II General] mchimney:
Lets hope i put the right files in the right place =0
[Galaxy S II General] robstunner:
Dude.... if your looking for feedback on the android OS bug its not gonna happen until tomorrow or even longer. It takes time.
[Galaxy S II General] Limpperi:
OH MAAAAN, ofc this happened when sgs2 is in repairs :mad: rly cant wait to get my hands on this SF :p can't wait to hear experiences of the battery drain and overall experience/diffrences

how about feedback on the email client (it was buggy and wasting battery) and gtalk video chat?
[Galaxy S II General] mchimney:
Thanks for the quick response, i did that the first time haha. Gonna try it again

*EDIT* looks like it's working
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
Sorry. You are absolutely correct. I was just excited, you know.

Guys please take your time and flash it.

OS is running at 2% and it now tells you the battery charge on the lock screen. Lock screen lag is also gone.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sparky32:
if I apply light pressure on back of tablet about two inches above asus logo it looks like something is pushing against the screen you get all those rings and what looks like a rainbow effect.

I noticed it when docked and moving the screen back and forth the same effect occurs.. is this just cos the unit is thin and flexes, does anyone else see this behaviour?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonitfcfan:
I tried what you did and I don't see anything, how big/noticeable is this 'rainbow effect' you're talking about on your tablet? Something doesn't seem right.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sparky32:
Going further if I simply press on the touch screen in that area I get the same effect somethings definitely wrong, when screen is on I get big yellow splodges from the backlight. The screen must be moving in the chassis I guess
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Underwater Mike:
I think you're describing the general effect of applying pressure to an LCD screen. They all do it to some extent. Unless the effect is permanent, it's nothing to worry about.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thewalrus0034:
I disagree, I tried and failed to replicate what he did. Also, my tablet has the bleeding issue too, so I don't think those are directly related. (I have light spots and edge bleeding, but don't have the rainbow effect.)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sparky32:
Its so annoying cos its ones of the newer serial numbers and there is hardly any bleed or anything, but in normal use touching the screen in one place seems to compress something and I get rainbow and big blobs of yellowy light about 1 inch above where I touch/press or if I move screen back or forward in dock or press against back of tablet.. Lets see what asus cs say.. Might have to go for refund and defect to samsung but I don't want to
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] todders:
Very frustrating to say the least because if you get a good one it is superb.Cant blame you if you do jump ship but i would encourage you to give it one more shot.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sparky32:
Boohoo that's it, returned and refunded.. 3 crap tablets, I give up.. Not sure what to do now sounds like galaxy tab is just as fraught with issues ipad2 maybe much as I.can't stand apple at least they seem to work when it comes to tablets
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerrykur:
iPad2 has some of the same issues, light bleed, etc and some new ones, cracking screens. It is tough to make a screen that is high res, light weight, thin, and can stand up to people poking at it all day long.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cvo515:
I just hope the root method their working on works with this GB. Otherwise we have a dilemma
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] gdi2290:
from what people are saying on the forum it doesn't. I want my wireless charging cover and lag free Messaging app
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] megarek:
How can I make sure the phone does NOT update? I do not want to lose my ability to root.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ACD168:
Once the official is released I will post a deodexed version.

ugh.. Don't accept the update? It's not forced on you it tells you that it's available.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] cloiselle:
will the deodexed version you post be compatible with non rooted devices ?

my clip is still in the mail :(

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] rumblee1:
I was considering this phone because it still ran froyo. I have a nice droid x, and since the gingerbread update it has been horrible. Lags big time, camera and camcorder don't work, reboot randomly. Worst thing is I did NOT accept the update. But after an hour or so it was automatically downloaded and installed. I had no choice. I've been fighting with Verizon and Motorola to get me back to froyo with no luck. I don't know if htc give you an option to accept or not. I'd advise thatbif you Have that option, not to accept gingerbread. Remember, I also lot my root with this update. That's why I was going to get the inc2.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] xgunther:
The GB update fixes many bugs on this device, and it runs very well. Just S-off before you update. :)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] spike82:
ok, i'm in italy, i have a inc2 sim unlocked working perfectly on vodafone italy sim...

i would like to s-off and then instal gb... how can i obtain this software upgrade?

[Defy General] cstepback:
For a while I have not been able to get into Stock Recovery. I have flashed a few different ROMs but still can't get to it.

Right now I flashed shadow-128.sbf

The phone starts up but when I try to use it I get "The process com.motorola.service.main has stopped unexpectedly. Please try agai." Force Close.

Can't force close. Same thing keeps coming up.

Tried to get into Stock Recovery to wipe data and factory reset but can not get into stock recovery. Nothing happens when I touch the screen.

Please help!
[Defy General] 57op:
Instead of touching the screen, press both volume up and down at the same time ( when you are into recovery ).

Good luck!

Do not use this method any longer. there is safe alternatives for people who used this method, or kenns rom to return to stock without using ever sbf.​

​

Fruit Cakes (Safe Stock Builds for CWM)​

Kennethpenn Gingerbread 2.3.4 Rom is safe​

Navalynt's Cherryblur is also safe​
[Atrix 4G Android Development] samcripp:
TEMPORARY FIX​

If the need to return to 1.8.6 is huge. Or a requirement, and only if its a requirement . I suggest you do the following.​

flash this special 183 sbf​

after installing sbf enter fastboot and type fastboot -w​

YOU CAN NOT USE ANY SBF THAT DOES NOT CONTAIN PUDDING

This special sbf is the same that can be found here! And is created by The2dCour.​

Big Thanks go to The2dCour for creating sbf and finding a temp fix. And to Jiva, AllTheWay and jruweaver for testing.​

NOTE: It is safe to flash kenns rom and navylants rom. It is also safe to fastboot flash boot and system img.​

[Atrix 4G Android Development] grave101:
You really don't need to flash 1.8.3 before you install 4.5.91.

I flashed 4.5.91 right over my original stock 1.8.3 and it worked without a hitch.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Javi97100:
Is this The ota that will be released soon?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] sublimejosh2000:
Your Update is labled 4.1.83... is this correct or wrong file?

Also, I notice the "Verifying account status" is back when trying to enable hotspot..
[Atrix 4G Android Development] benem3000:
I am pretty sure its for all the people on 2.3.4 :P
[Atrix 4G Android Development] samcripp:
almost everyone here is rooted with cwm. if you have cwm the install wont work, you need a fresh sbf off 1.8.3, not to mention that you could have caused a brick because of your cache not having update.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] samcripp:
Yes the update says 4.1.83, but i assure you this is the 4.5.97 update
[Atrix 4G Android Development] samcripp:
As far as we know this is the final build, kenneth also confirms the leak he got running on his phone is 4.5.91. theres other things in this build that give it away as final. no bugging tools, and no extra motorola testing apps.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] romracer:
Like sam said, its the right file. From the metadata:

post-build=MOTO/olyatt/olympus:2.3.4/4.5.91/110625:user/release-keys
[Atrix 4G Android Development] grave101:
I'm not sure what your talking about. I'm rooted with CWM as well. I cleared my cache through CWM and then installed the Gingerbread zip. There is no reason I should have caused a brick to my phone.

CWM is needed for the install.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] samcripp:
dude get off my thread, you install kenneths zip, that is desing to be installed that way, this is pure pure pure ota. this works comepletly stock, it wont work using CWM
[Atrix 4G Android Development] hoodlikegaza:
Apparently this doesn't use cwm....
[Atrix 4G Android Development] munchy_cool:
AFAIK what Sam is trying to say is that this update.zip is not meant to be used with CWM as it is for stock recovery.

Sam correct me if I am wrong
[Atrix 4G Android Development] fastbikedroid:
4.5.91 or 4.5.97??

Is this the 4.5.91 like Kenneth's or is this 4.5.97?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] hoodlikegaza:
Lol...
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Pat123:
That was a typo! He updated it to 4.5.91!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] samcripp:
that was a typo i corrected it, and this is not like kennesth release. thats mroe like a custom rom, is full of bugs, things may work or may not. not to knock it, as kenneth did an amazing job with his release. this is purely good old stable stock build. flash it, and rooted
[Atrix 4G Android Development] munchy_cool:
This is 2.3.4?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jruweaver:
talked to ken on irc he said flashing those files will not fix it
[Atrix 4G Android Development] n0kia916:
Thank you! Works greattttt!!!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] msd24200:
Does he think it's a change in partition size?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Bakano:
I'm rooted, flashed CWM, and whole "ROM" is running like a champ =) Got a little concerned after I found out about the hard bricks, but I unlocked bootloader and flashed own recovery pretty easily once I got home from work

hope it gives you hope =)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Javi97100:
Does the mobile hotspot add additional fees to AT&T?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] msd24200:
For the bootloader unlock just go to that thread and follow the steps after you have updated to 2.3.4 if that's what you want.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] msd24200:
1.8.3? You may have something here!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jank0023:
So I lost root...want to know if i can get it back without unlocking.

Also, anyone still have their ability to use hotspot without tether plan? I still have the Custom Tether APN from gladroot, but I can't use hotspot now:(
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Bakano:
oh dang sorry if i misled you. I'm on the GB "stock" that the OP gave us. I wanted to go back (so I could get out of this beta-ish zone), but figured I'd stay, but it has actually turned about to be extremely sweet... that's all.

Just trying to say you can still customize it and everything to your liking!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] mramirezusa:
I think he flashed Kenneth update.zip, he mention CDW? and stock just work with stock android recovery... Am I wrong?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] mramirezusa:
So the following bugs are confirmed so far with stock 4.5.91:

(Please don't get confuse with Kenneth update.zip)

1. Touch screen DON NOT WORK ANYMORE after update 4.5.91 inside of the android recovery MENU

2. Modem is weird some people just getting GSRP or is hard to get H+
[Atrix 4G Android Development] falcon_bob:
Anyone else missing a lot of market apps after the install?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] l3giticonia:
So far so good i used "rslite" and flashes 1.83 back then ran this update worked like a champ, although i must share a few reports/feedback.

1. H+ 4G/3G Speeds fluxulate strangly only getting few hundred kb's but then at times get full 2-6 mb.

2. Some lag every once in a while.

3. expierienced a couple crashes.

but minus a few errors which i have found so far this thing is a freaking champ!!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Infinite-T:
I just flashed this over stock rooted 1.8.3. Everything went smooth and so far everything seems just fine. No problems yet. Didn't lose any data and.... holy crap this thing is FAST AS HELL!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] 2leaponover1:
Every single flash is super fast until you put all your stuff back on the phone and start tinkering with it, lol. So tired of hearing, man this thing is fast!!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] samcripp:
GUYS BE CAREFUL REMEBER YOU CANT FLASH BACK TO 183 or ANY VERSION USING SBF
[Atrix 4G Android Development] t.s.eliot:
You have no need to apologize sir, people shouldn't bite the hand that is feeding us gingerbread!

i know ur not held responsible its my 400 dlls mistake and another istake not having insurance -.-
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Javi97100:
Well no one knee until it was posted by someone... 5 after, so it's not his fault
[Atrix 4G Android Development] samcripp:
oh im no where near responsible for the gingerbread find, if anything all i did was share this OTA and unfortunatly it seems to have caused some headaches for some people, and to them im sorry. for the rest of you i hope you know that not been able to use sbf means you are stuck. you could simply flash boot or system from any of the older versions and go back. im testing 183 in a few minutes.

BUT AGAIN. DO NOT USE SBF TO FLSH BACK TO ANYTHING ELSE. UNTIL A SAFE METHOD OF DOING THIS IS FOUND!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] nsourm:
Hello samcripp.Thanks for the tutorial although i haven't tested it.

Just a question.Does this method works for anyone had already flashed kenneths rom?

Sorry if someone already mentioned that.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] samcripp:
not to mention before that was posted the thread had a warning of possible brick. anything you flash unto your phone may brick it. all i can do sir is apologize. but i did not hold a gun to you and told you to flash it.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Bakano:
you are wrong (in a nice way =D). I have Clockwork Recovery Mod as my "Android Recovery" flashed through fastboot onto this OTA update... from this post. I'm trying to not leave anything confusing lol
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Bakano:
BANG!!!!!

Well I thank you sir for the post and info!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] samcripp:
do you mean if you already flash the OTA.

from OTA to Kenns ROM >>>> OK

from Kenns to OTA >>>> DONT DO IT, honestly stay on kenns rom, its getting pretty nice in that beta.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] nsourm:
I mean from kens to 1.83 and back stock 4.5.91 using your method
[Atrix 4G Android Development] irus:
I have just flashed sbf to stock 1.83 and when I try to install the update.zip this is the error i get. I have searched but I can't find an answer. any help would be great. Thanks in advance.

Reference to "Touchscreen not working in Android Recovery" issue

Volume buttons and power button work as navi and select. Worked for me just now. Is there a root update.zip I can flash in stead of all this other hocus pocus?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] 2leaponover1:
This thread should be closed regardless of the warning. All the bricks i'm seeing, "highly unlikely" is not a justified wording. Please moderation close this thread before more people suffer... not just close it, DELETE it!!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] devbro:
I do not see why we should close this? I updated mine about an hour ago and it works perfectly fine now. I would simply suggest that if you are afraid of bricking dont do it. or use the CWM solution that is posted in the other forum instead.

I used CWM solution and I was able to revert back 1.8.3 and then back to 2.3.4.

some side notes for future reference:

1. I have a ATT atrix

2. my previous image was 1.8.3 rooted and fully unlocked

3. I had a minor problem with all buttons and screen becoming flipped on touch sensor which was fixed when I played randomly with the locked screen

4. I read the super thread and I knew that I should not use RSD on this one

for others:

finger reader works

front camera works just fine
[Atrix 4G Android Development] EclipseX:
Hi ken, thank you for this build. I'm wondering if you can do an update zip for webtop and others corrections.

Cheers
[Atrix 4G Android Development] 2leaponover1:
This thread says that you should use RSD, and says highlighted in red, not CWM
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jzaslice:
Since now we are all pretty much stuck on this build (for now) , those of us who successfully "updated" at least...how exactly do we unlock bootloader to gain root????? Im assuming there are many that were unlocked before applying this or surely some one can answer..please explain if its ok to follow pudding thread /briefmobile tut.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Spectre51:
NM answered my own ?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] players_inc17:
Everything installs fine but im getting the one bar issue on radio 1.97. And way to fix. Already did factory reset and wipe cache.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] samcripp:
to the folks that think this thread should be closed.

this is an official OTA posted on the dev section, with a guide to install it. the caption did not read [ROM]. this is meant for devs.

for the folks that think they are stuck.

there is safe methods to reverting to 183 without using sbf. if you wanted you could just flash kenns rom. anything that dosnt touch your radio or bootloader is pretty much okay. i suggest you flash using fastboot only the boot.img and system.img of the target version.

currently a method to regain sbf usage is been worked on. i sincerely apologise to anyones whos phone where bricked by this OTA. sometimes to make things work a few things break on the process, thats why the warnings are there, so everyone know its dangerous.

again, i apologize to anyone whos phone got bricked during this process.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Sir_Brizz:
I don't know if this has been mentioned, but just in case...

I had the WebTop hack and the Swype beta installed on 1.8.3 and I had to restore my backups before this would work. Yes, obvious. But I didn't consider it so maybe this will help someone else.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Spectre51:
Yeh just found that out about the swype beta myself.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] polaris441:
I guess for those who had bricked the phone need to wait full sbf is released.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Spectre51:
Sweet flashed 1.83 sbf via rsdlite and then flashed update.zip and rocking 2.3.4

FYI you can use the preinstall.img in that root link on the op to root without unlocking if you want.

love this build.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] mramirezusa:
MOVE update.zip to you external SD CARD and try again. That solve the problem
[Atrix 4G Android Development] frankiedizzle87:
what are the advantages of flashing this one over kens?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] samcripp:
no advantages, actually you gain a disadvantage, not been able to sbf back.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] 2leaponover1:
You know as well as i do a dev got bricked doing this, lol. Take out the unlikely in bricking and make it more noticeable for noobs because it's just too inviting right now.
