Hello all.

I've been on the forums quite some time but i only lurk. I'm a bit shy on posting :)

thats the start, :) you will learn a lot not just by reading but through interaction with other members, :) good eve everyone,

Nope, it's not rooted.
[Galaxy S II General] francis820:
You need to root your phone first before installing any custom ROMs or kernels.
[Galaxy S II General] francis820:
Dori 7.42 has just been released, also recently was Jeboo 1.1f. I'm on the latter completing my 3-day test and so far so good, especially the CRT-off which is now bug-free on my ROM.

I'll probably switch and test Dori starting tomorrow.
[Galaxy S II General] jantonio23:
What ROM are you using?
[Galaxy S II General] francis820:
NeatROM Full LSJ :good:

Hi all, been gone out of this thread for a long time since I've been using my Xperia S, to tell you honestly it sucks. Much more better here and gnex. But no regrets getting it and I'm currently trying to make a AOSP rom working on it. But set aside it's good that where still intact here and helping each other out!

Peace out and Mabuhay!

i guess everybody was waiting for someone to paste link leading to the download of the official 4.12 update. LOL:p
[Galaxy S II General] :
For the Xperia Z, yep that's a nice choice, the Xperia S is good but it has alot of flaws just like all Xperia phones. Sony is open source but too late to upgrade. The XT is the good but not sure of the Z. The only way to know is if you already have the device. But going away from that, if you want the XS, then wait for my AOSP build. Hehehe. :thumbup:
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
The Z will be a killer device!

Need advise since im stuck w/ stock gingerbread... although its good that all works fine for 2.3.6 firmware but i'm rather bored since its been 2yrs with it now and wanted to have a nice new rom custom/stock w/ jellybean,. May i know what are you using nowadays?! for better performance and have nice new taste for my S2.

[Galaxy S II General] zoie:
You can but not in the old cwm. First thing you do is download the latest dorimanx or philz kernel put it on sd card and also the rom. Reboot to recovery flash dorimanx kernel or philz kernel then go back to the main menu of recovery, do not reboot system because it will not boot. go to advance then reboot to recovery, now you are now on philz or dorimanx recovery. Wipe all then install the rom then reboot system.

rom suggestions?

Hi kabayans. Can you suggest a Rom that is very stable? it will be my first time flashing a Rom.

The cyanogen rom does not support fm radio which is important to me.

my last root was gingerbread 2.3.5. so that was a long time ago. I'm still a noob.

please help me decide what Rom to flash, which I can use for a very long time without updating again.
[Galaxy S II General] madsponge26:
Try biftor rom and neatrom:)
[Galaxy S II General] kmike9km:
Thank you, I'll try Neatrom.

It says in the tutorial, that I should flash region firmware first that is 4.0.3.

What is the best region firmware for our country to get the best signal?
[Galaxy S II General] madsponge26:
Just flash the neatrom. Neatrom included the best modem.:)
[Galaxy S II General] francis820:
NeatROM is the most balanced LS8-based ROM IMHO, deodexed and got rid of non-essential apps. Biftor is okay but I find it too "skinned." Not even Google Maps is included.

Funny how I comment on it when I use Biftor Aroma Mods :p

At the worst case, you can try the extended battery from Mugen (online shop).

it lasts my S2 a whole day, with the data on 24/7.

too expensive if you ask me, even for an extended battery. I use an extra battery that's exactly the same as stock P1600 + this charger stand for P800 (mall price as of May 2012)

That is if you don't mind removing your battery at least once daily..

[Galaxy S II General] drummer10630:
I had an m250s. I don't recommend it, even though it's cheaper. It's a Korean model, with an antenna for watching digital tv that is only broadcast in Korea and certain parts of China, and lots of bloatware that is Korean only. You''ll have to root it, then flash it with another rom, as the stock one, makes you jump thru hoops to call or send texts, as it's country specific. Also the 3g will not work in some countries, as the hardware and cellular frequency bands are different. After flashing a custom rom, you'll lose the NFC functions of the battery, and tv will be non functional. Personally, I think you'll be happier with an International model i9100. There is an entire forum dedicated to those models. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1097347

ICS pero it encountered problems with the blue tooth after I was using it for a couple of weeks, that's why I think I'll re-flash it, I won't brick it naman siguro pag rineflash ko?
