ICS roms will pop up here as fast as humanly possible once we have source code. As for an official update from Samsung to ICS: given the history with the Captivate getting official gingerbread, don't hold your breath. In fact don't even stay up late waiting for it to get home. You might as well order a pizza and turn on Netflix because you're in for a long, lonely night like an Eagles song.

There shouldn't be any doubt as to whether all the GSII variants will get ICS. They WILL. It is Samsung's flagship phone they are going to support it for a while. Samsung, HTC, Motorola, and Sony Ericsson have signed a new contract with Google to provide more timely updates. Given you may have to wait a few months after source is released to get ICS, after than updates should come very fast. But either way...custom ROMs will probably get you there sooner.

Figured I'd share this with anyone who is interested. You can pretty much see here this is the 6th straight quarter the cellphone unit of LG has lost money. Their primary source of income are home appliances and air conditioning pretty much. Maybe Google can acquire LG's mobile unit while they are getting Motorola's :p

So I am getting ready to install this ROM, or at least try to. Question I have is when it says to " 1) Download update-unnamed-v1.X.X-full.zip and place it on your SD card", what does that mean exactly? Do I need to download it onto my computer and move it to my phone? Or do I download it right onto the phone?

Also, do I need an external SD card installed into the phone or can I just save the zip onto the internal memory?

Sorry for the newbie questions but I am very new to this. You guys were very helpful when I rooted the phone so I figured you would be the ones to ask again this time. Thanks in advance for your help.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gtg465x:
Doesn't matter how you download it and it can go on either SD card, internal or external.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ORT14:
When I do the wipe will I lose anything important like contacts?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] nyydynasty:
when you wipe, you will lose everything on your phone. So make sure your contacts are backed up. If you have them in gmail, then you wont lose them because after flashing the new rom and once you setup your gmail account, your contacts will come back automatically.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gtg465x:
Yup, best for every Android user to import all of their contacts into their Google/Gmail account. I manually entered mine into Gmail when I first got an Android phone. It sucked, but since then I haven't had to worry about it. As soon as I flash a ROM and sign in to my Google account my contacts just pop in like magic.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] nyydynasty:
yep. I spent the hour or whatever to manually enter all my contacts. It can take a while depending on how many contacts you have, but it will save you a LOT of time and headaches later on.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ORT14:
Another question for you, what happens to my stock rom when I install UnNamed? Will it still be available to me should I need to switch back?

With my paid apps, will I be able to redownload them for free or am I going to have to pay again? I have titanium backup but since I am wiping the phone wont everything I backed up get wiped too?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Kadin:
Do you currently have CWM installed? If so, you can do a full nandroid backup from recovery of your stock rom if you choose to go back to stock. If not, Entropy has a great thread in the dev section about loading back to stock.

UnNamed will simply become the one and only rom on your phone (which isn't a bad thing) after you flash it, the stock will always get replaced.

As to your paid apps via the Market, they'll be there for you to download again for free. TB is another good option, just make sure that you ONLY choose 'Missing Apps with Data' for any restoring.

Whenever you choose 'Wipe data', all folders on /sdcard (clockworkmod, titaniumbackup, download, etc.) remain there and untouched. Formatting the /sdcard is another story.

Your answer was correct since the storage area where the contact info is stored will in fact get wiped but it kind of makes it sound as though you will lose everything, which is not the case.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Misterjunky:
re: backup-restore

If you don't backup the stock rom you will loose it.

To back up the stock rom which you are using now is easy.

Go into CWM Recovery and select "backup/restore"

then select "backup".

OR if you are not sure about CWM recovery you can always do it the easier way.

Download this app called "CWM Manager" which is available here: http://megaupload.com/?d=TGXMLL1G

This this app is better than a swiss army knife!

This app is so easy to use that even my brother "Mikey" can do it! :)

The reason it's so easy to use is because it's self-explanitory.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ORT14:
OK, I do have the cwm from when I rooted, so I should be good there.

Last question, and BTW you have all been super helpful with this. When you say SD card, you are talking about my phones internal memory right and not a little micro SD card that needs to be installed, correct?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Misterjunky:
re: sdcard

When ever you see "sdcard" mentioned in any of these posts or replies

people are referring to the internal sdcard unless they specify "external sdcard"

I also found it strange and a little confusing at first but for a different reason,

the reason being is that we really don't have an externel sdcard at all except

for the one which is inside of our phone. :)

(they are both internal sdcards since both of them reside inside of our phones!)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Kadin:
Yeah. I always refer to the external sd as just that, external or ext. :)

Long press volume key to skip songs mod

Hi GTG, is there any way you can implement Aerobahn's mod to skip songs from any app like google music, pandora or any other music app to skip songs with the volume keys?

I found a treath for a SGS2 international version that allows this. Any other sugestions. It would be really convinient when playing music via a bluetooth headset. I promess I'll make a donation.

Is it hard to learn the coding the implement this mod to your ROM?

Here is the link for this mod. I also pasted a file that has the code for this mode that works on international SGS2.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ORT14:
Alright, I did all the steps and I am pretty sure it worked bc my AOS dropped considerably. However, when I do the pulldown menu there are still only the five options. And when I hold down the power key there are only the three original options that I had in the stock rom. Did I mess something up? The only thing that was a little different from the instructions was when I chose the zip to install it was called "updated" in my menu instead of "update-unnamed-v1.X.X-full.zip" like it says in the instructions.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gtg465x:
Lol did you download the update zip instead of the full zip? Sounds like you did.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Kadin:
Sounds like you flashed the wrong file. What does it show for Build Number under 'About Phone' in settings? It should show UnNamed v1.0.4.

Also, you need to swipe the Notification options to the left to see the additional 5 but if you did indeed flash the wrong file, you obviously won't see that.

Sounds like they selected 'apply /sdcard/update.zip' instead of navigating to the proper directory and selecting the actual downloaded file, or 'apply update from sdcard' in the root CWM menu option.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gtg465x:
Is that a challenge?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ORT14:
It does not say that in the build.

Is the full rom inside of another directory folder? I must have just loaded the wrong file, ugh.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Misterjunky:
re: full flash

Just go download this "update-unnamed-v1.0.4-full.zip": http://www.multiupload.com/9UTPJDVDZQ

After its downloaded put it on your SDCARD (not inside any folders).

Go into CWM recovery and select "install zip from sdcard" then simply

select the "update-unnamed-v1.0.4-full.zip" in your sdcard and flash.

This way everything will be GOOOOD :)

Dude!!! Swear God man!!! I didn't mean that. I just switched from a jailbroken iphone into Android few weeks ago. I know a little about C+ and Visual Basic programing. I was just wanted some ideas or just point me in the right direction on how to learn the basics for android code. I'm sure you only are going to spent time on things that matter to you. I hope you'll be interested on adding the long press volume key mod to your cool UnNamed Rom.

I read a lot about your ROM, almost all 78 pages. I got it installed today, and is a really bad ass ROM!!!. I haven't tryed other ones yet. Everything worked just fine on my phone, bluetooth, navigation, etc.

Thanks again for all the work you do and your team. I'll trully apreciate all the help you can assist me with this mod.

Long press volume key to skip songs MOD

All right. I guess it would not be possible then. There is an app called Just Shake, allows skip songs from just few apps like google music, but not from cool apps like pandora or others. Is there an app that allows to skip songs from the lock screen or using volume keys for any music service currently playing?

The Samsung lag fixes have something to do with Samsung using a non-standard file system. So it's not a case of the fix not being compatible with the HD2 but more a case of the fix not being needed with a non-Samsung ROM.

[Dell Venue] vai6921:
Hi, this is my first android phone (Dell Venue). I got it about 2 weeks ago, and have been trying to root it since. I have tried z4, superoneclick several versions new and old, and universal androot 1.6.1. Not sure if any of those shouldn't be used on this phone but am completely new and I have no idea about the terms being used or anything for that matter. I have tried turning off my phone and turning it on for superoneclick. I have tried to toggle dev access. None seem to work. The closest i got was with the 2.1.1 superoneclick and trying to turn it back on when it says, "waiting for device", this goes all the way to step 5 and then it errors out saying "remounting/system with read-write access...error: closed. FAILED".

I have 2.2.2 froyo on it and not sure if you require any further information. I would really like to root this phone, if someone can help me with pictures or a video on how i can do this or tell me what it is i'm doing wrong, it would be much appreciated. I have tried this on windows 7 64bit, windows XP pro, windows xp, and windows 32bit.

Please can someone shed some light on this for me?
