Awesome share. Flashed using clockwork and worked without a hitch.

Is this is the best kernel out right now for battery life?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] skadude66:
Is there any real reason to have a stock Telus ROM flashable via ODIN? I know Mr X said he'd look into a CWM flashable version. I can't really see what risk there can be to flash any of these roms. Am I just over thinking this? :p

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] skadude66:
Yeah, I've got that one. I'm really only missing a stock ROM that I can flash through ODIN, in case recovery is broken.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sl___:
Hmmm is the stock rom really necessary? The stock kernel should provide the necessary fix incase things go wrong, then you can just nandroid backup to factory state? :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] skadude66:
It will only restore the kernel.. If I want to go back to stock Telus ROM for whatever reason, I want to be sure I can do it through Nandroid in recovery or download in case one or the other gets corrupted. Just trying to cover all my bases :D

Ill upload a flash-able stock unrooted later tomorrow.

we wont get a stock recovery unless some one roots and dumps that mount point with dd or we get a firmware update to take the image from.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] atulb:
Thanks

Not sure if i understand correctly. But i did nandroid backup of my own rooted (only flashed su via cwm) stock rom, if i were to restore stock rom via CWM and then restore kernel from odin, i should have something close to Stock State, no?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] -Mr. X-:
The official ODIN tar for the telus rom has been posted in the general section, any one looking to restock should use this.

Alright guys,

Here is a list of ciq **** i found and have rmoved in the framework, its present in tmobile and telus frameworks, with the acception that

tmobiles CIQ is turned on

with a system lib and a framework jar, that telus roms are lacking. so CIQ is dormant on telus roms. i still dont trust the fact that it appears dormant so i have started removing it. so far i have it ripped out of the framework in full, not a single speck of code pertaining to it is in the framework now.

I am moving on to decompiling the apps and checking them all for ciq code as well.

if any one wants a good read wired just did an interview with the CIQ guys, asking about there rootkit.

You guys can pull the boot.img file from the stock telus odinable rom and make that file into a tar file. I actually don't know how to do that or i would have already.

Or someone can make it cwm flashable, i don't do that either so good luck lol.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] :
Hi,

Need help to clarify this operation.

Let's say, after dialing a new phone number, I want to add that to a new contact.

But I want to save that contact as Google contact or contact in MS Exchange account. I fiddle around the phone for 10 minutes, but could not figure how. appreciate if anyone can provide solution to this.

My phone is AT&T Galaxy S2, loaded with Unnamed 1.04 rom. But, it should be very close to stock samsung rom, in term of adding contact.

James
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Adelaide.:
I have no idea about MS exchange since I don't use it, but I do know a way to save them to google.

Save the contact like normal, and then select the contacts tab. Hit menu (the left most key at the bottom) and select 'merge with google'. That will update the contacts in both directions.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] :
Ok, finally figure this one out.

Open "Contact", then hit "menu soft key"->"More"->"Settings"->"Save new contact to"->"Always ask"
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Adelaide.:
Glad you found it, that is probably the better way than the method I found.
[Trophy General] iammvp:
Hey guys,

Have a feeling its going to be a 'No' thread but thought I'd ask anyway..

I upgraded to official Mango release via Ansar's ROM a few weeks back, only to not read instructions and half brick my phone when attempting to return to NoDo (Only get the top line in bootloader mode)..

I've just had news that my carrier (Vodafone NZ) have finally released the official NZ ROM and I would like to update to that if possible as I believe it will fix a few software issues (Such as Local Scout not detecting anything and Bing Song recognition disappearing)..

Is this at all possible avoiding bootloader menu??

Fingers crossed,

MVP

So The Nexus One isn't getting official ICS because it doesn't have enough space on the system partition(speculation as no one officially knows the real reason) but do you think this will be the case for many phones including the Captivate? Would suck if the bottleneck for peoples phones would be “not enough space"

*Get Chance and Luck*
[Captivate General] mrhaley30705:
There was a link to an article (unofficial) that said Galaxy S, Nexus S, and something else would get ICS.
[Captivate General] Vaanhoot:
Miui developers have successfully ported ics to the captivate. Link to the article is in the miui thread.

[Captivate General] stewi21:
The cappy is definitely capable of running fully fledged ics smooth to googles standards as it has essentially the same internals as a nexus s
[Captivate General] zelendel:
That's kinda of hard to believe sense the source hasn't been released yet. Might be a port from the sdk. But its MIUI so no telling who's work they stole this time lol
[Captivate General] mrhaley30705:
I think he's referring to the port from Galnet, and your right. It is a port from the sdk.
[Captivate General] Blu3izzy:
Well I don't think it actually has been been ported onto the Captivate yet. B-eock tried but the test didn't boot.
[Captivate General] b-eock:
I was trying to fix the touchscreen issue, didn't work! Still have to use two fingers. The not booting, was my mistake I messed up. It boots fine and if you wanna fix reorientation then flash glitch kernel!

[Captivate General] Blu3izzy:
Ooooooohhhh ok. I want to help out with this project, so I'm going to try to help out with the touchscreen issue.
[Captivate General] jordanpatrick:
The main speculation for why the Nexus One is not getting ICS comes down to two things: ROM storage for the system and the processor speed.

First, the Nexus One only comes equipped with 512MB of ROM. After the system files are installed, it leaves something around 200MB for apps, which is not a lot. ICS is supposed to take even more space than GB, so having something like 50-100MB for user apps would be likely...and unpleasant.

The Galaxy S phones all have 2GB of internal ROM I believe, so I don't think that issue will apply.

Second, the Nexus One has an older 1Ghz "Snapdragon" SoC. Although clocked the same as a Galaxy S phone, it is made with an older design, and performs less work per cycle. According to a few articles I have seen, the "Hummingbird" SoC in the Galaxy S phones has up to 3 times the GPU power of the older "Snapdragon" SoC...and roughly a 30% increase in real world performance.

Given that ICS will have hardware acceleration for 2D drawing, the slower processor (especially slow for GPU type elements) is likely a big hindrance, that again, should not apply to the Galaxy S line.

So keep your fingers crossed for this I guess. I will be! I am confident there will be a working unofficial release, but very doubtful about anything official.

[Captivate General] kiennt:

[Captivate General] DaNaRkI:
- front facing camera and NFC. Two thing that ICS has some rather special uses for.

Which I still question about... are they going to be requirements for it? "Beam" looks to have a fairly deep integration into the OS, from what I've read.

leaked from my FUSED SGS I897 contaminating you via XDA app.
[Captivate General] Reamer09:
I'd say that's true for two phones sitting side by side in the stores, but the Captivate isn't sold in stores anymore, at least not my local one. And even average users wont upgrade an official release if it isn't OTA. None of them know what Kies is and wont even think about touching it.

sent from my Pinnacle Powered Captivate
[Captivate General] kangi26:
I think I might disagree with you on that. Most folks don't care about the OS. They will shop the device based on the hardware features. Most of the 'average' customers aren't into flashing ROM's like we are around here, and are probably pretty oblivious to GB or ICS(for the most part)

All is IMHO
[Captivate General] mrhaley30705:
I would agree with that. My wife is still on jf6, and overall she's happy with it. I flashed back to jf6 stock and I almost went nuts.
[Captivate General] popfan:
Well, they do say that ignorance is bliss.

I would say the average user does not flash, if they have the slightest tech interest they will tend to buy the best phone they can afford. So the best phone will most likely have the lastest available OS regardless of their knowledge of the different OS type. So in an manner of effect they look for the best OS, because they are trying to get the best phone for their buck.

[Captivate General] bobbylx:
Sorry to bring up an old post, but I've been playing with MIUI for the last few weeks now. That ICS port is not accurate. GalnetMIUI has borrowed some framework and some apps from ICS and included it into MIUI. If you flash it, it does show software version 4.0.1., but I don't think it's a true ICS ROM. This is just what I read into the GalnetMIUI ROM.
