thnx man for keeping us well informed :)
[Galaxy S II General] :
Thanks Darkside....I try my best to get as much info from the other thread to post on first post here and for people who read this thread to know what is going on and keep everyone updated...:)

Yeah thanks Pulser for that one....Saw his sig and he has a few of his own chuck facts and i thought why not try something different:D
[Galaxy S II General] :
i will do my best my friend...:) and even you can get in the act..if you hear anything that is useful or any updates share it here
[Galaxy S II General] anshmiester78900:
sure will definitely do it
[Galaxy S II General] karendar:
Here's a good question, I imagine the CM team already started working on their version of ICS... And we already have a CM7 RC which can be used for this. How is devving for this AOSP being handled? From scratch or are they using CM code to help out?
[Galaxy S II General] :
Pretty sure its from scratch;)
[Galaxy S II General] sim-value:
Great to see some dev-work on the S2, somehow kinda felt like it was left behind.

Here comes counting days until ICS is here :)
[Galaxy S II General] Hollow.Droid:
HW acceleration is reported to be working. Although I'm sure there are a host of other issues this is a nice start :)

Quick question, i've heard this works on the epic 4g touch, can anybody verify this?
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
We need to start handing out Sammys to those asking silly questions and ones that's been asked and answered in the thread already.

I hear you asking, "What is a Sammy?"

This is a Sammy:
[Galaxy S II General] Northern-Loop:
Probably best check in the Epic 4G forum as its a different ROM/device etc

Intratech is an awesome member. We wouldn't have those latest official roms without him.
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
It wasn't directed at you buddy. I was just reading throught the thread and came across a lot of less than stellar posts so I made a general observation. If it was meant for you the I would have quoted you.
[Galaxy S II General] :
You are right. Some of the posts here are how can i say pointless and repetitive...But no point answering to them i just point them to the direction they need to see..If they come back and ask the same...Well i think maybe a "sammy" is a good idea..Thank you my friend...:D
[Galaxy S II General] runebinder:
I've been reading the developer's thread but haven't posted in there as I'm not a dev, so wouldn't be able to contribute anything meaningful. Glad to see Matriak31 has created this one so I can post something, cheers dude :)

Looking forward to when a build comes out with all the major components functioning, will flash that for sure. Really appreciate all the hard work they're doing to get ICS working.
[Galaxy S II General] :
First of all thank you for your kind words...But really i have not done anything. Second as soon as the first build working build comes out il be the first to change over..No more gingerbread for me anymore....And this thread is for everyone...So you are more than welcome here my friend and leave your thoughts...Just as long they are to the point;)

Some more news coming from the twitter page..Buttons are now gone. TeamHacksung got sound working and maybe GPS...And light sensor and autobrightness also are working..

No matter how much i say it you guys are working like mad....Thank you guys....
[Galaxy S II General] id10terrordfw:
Dang, making someone play for the Cubs because they don't understand forum etiquette? Harsh. Real harsh. And that is coming from a Redbird fan even.
[Galaxy S II General] :
Intratech explained already so lets leave it there my friend no need to carry on....More important news than that...Intra already explained regarding the "sammys".....:)
[Galaxy S II General] id10terrordfw:
No carrying on intended, just kidding around while amazed at progress being made. :)
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
Just been reading the twitters and seems as if great progress is being made. Jolly good work chaps.

And this time last week we had no thread no project nothing...and for the amount of work that they have put it and the awesomeness of having codeworkx on board and a few others its only good things ahead...get pulser and that is complete team...sure he has something cooking underground...he is like the underground king;) always sure he will surprize everyone:D
[Galaxy S II General] :
I love this thread :) it's like a soap opera...so many twists and turns. I'm hooked!

I've been a member for a short while, and don't post unless its necessary, as I actually enjoy searching the threads properly to resolve my problems....but I had to say what an amazing job you guys are doing with this port :)

It's good to see everyone pulling in the same direction to get this beauty onto our devices, and I can't wait to see more progress from you awesome devs :)

A big shout out to Matriak too.... He's helped so many people on other rom threads. Respect mate!

Anyway, thanks again guys.
[Galaxy S II General] :
Thank you my friend for your kind words...i cant believe how big this thread is getting.....could give some of the devs on other threads a run for there money in enterntainment value and page views:D but on a serious note yeah the guys are awesome and this is one upgrade i have been looking forward to...builds that are coming on stock roms are the same.....this is one big upgrade that i think is what android needs and looks like we finally are getting it:)
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
The Sammy is opensource mate so use it as you see fit.

Thanks fella.:) how you get your chuck norris generator on your sig? beats having to put it in every day
[Galaxy S II General] sliderocket22:
As a lifelong Cubs fan, I 100% approve of handing out Sammy's to people.

[Galaxy S II General] screamworks:
Thanks for that guys :D I just figured if it's easier to read, we might (hopefully) get less spam. I can't believe how much this project has progressed in just the 10 hours or so since I went to sleep; I guess that really manifests the true spirit of the dev. community on XDA.
[Galaxy S II General] Teio:
Team Hacksung got Wifi, sound and maybe GPS working...

And the screen buttons are gone... Awesome Work!!!

So is the team hacksum going to share the work with the devs ?

Also there is a update #4 video in which it is shown that calling & network is working
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
Whoa!! Rapid developments!! Simply rocking... Lets hope team hacksung to release their work soon
[Galaxy S II General] kwhkkwhk:
I hope someone releases a mod where the menu button for the SGSII brings up the recent apps menu. We have 3 buttons after all and that would make the menu button a lot more useful.

Any thoughts on this? or has this been brought up already (sorry if it has)?
[Galaxy S II General] crobat:
In the alpha build, holding the home button brings up the recent apps menu. :)
[Galaxy S II General] CerebroJD:
Waiting on the edge of my seat for a build with the basics in place (wifi, hspa, sound) and then I will be running this build FOR SURE. Cant wait to see my SGS2 scream with an aosp build on it. Purity!

I'm also hopeful to see contributions being made to the CM9 project from the devs of this one... As much as we might not like the "closed" side of things from Team Hacksung right now, I understand that they want to keep the MIUI folks from pushing it as 'their' own work, when its clearly just a collection of stolen CM fixes. Goodwill from 'our' ICS project towards CM9 is something that I'm sure the Hacksung crew appreciates, and I'm also sure that sharing would go both ways eventually.

Again, super excited, will be running this as soon as the full basics are in place!
[Galaxy S II General] Devhux:
I had played around a bit with Alpha 7, and was very impressed with how smooth it was. I did revert back to my previous rom for now, but once we get Wi-Fi, sound, and possibly wallpapers working, I'll try it again. :)

Awesome job so far guys!
[Galaxy S II General] eRajesh:
When will we get a new alpha?? :D
[Galaxy S II General] lovidore:
I don't know whether or not you're joking, but dont ask for ETA's.
[Galaxy S II General] Devhux:
....if you had read the thread, you'd know.

(edit: OK, you were joking.... but yeah, for anyone else - don't ask for ETAs)
[Galaxy S II General] leedavis:
I've been following this thread and tried out Alpha 7. Great work, but I've noticed things have dramatically slowed down since the CM team stopped sharing their development. It's a real shame, all teams cannot pull together on this to achieve a common goal. I commend the work you guys are continuing to do and your investment in time. I wish I had the technical knowledge to assist. :)
[Galaxy S II General] :
Still codeworkx is keeping an eye out. He is still there in irc channel and still giving advice from what i followed
[Galaxy S II General] mintvilla:
This won't work, what happens when your in a game or any other app, and you need to hit the menu button? you'll be hitting the multitask button?

Even if you made it that when you require the menu button it works, then you would need to long press the home button for the multitask button, meaning you'd have two buttons doing that and it won't work very well, in my opinion, its best leaving the natural layout of Android, where long pressing the home button brings up the multitasking.
[Galaxy S II General] XDA mark:
From what I know the Galaxy Nexus doesn't have an menu button. So that means that device is useless?

I understood there would be 3 little dots now in apps acting as menu buttons, revealing the settings and stuff what our menu button does now. So it would seem nice to make that menu button the multitasking button, making it even more close to the Galaxy Nexus setup.

Correct me if Im wrong please! Im only human :P
[Galaxy S II General] freemini:
I'm sure a menu button will show up in legacy apps(like in Honeycomb). Most apps use the menu button making it almost mandatory. Since they're soft-buttons they should change to allow a menu button in there. With that said, I would rather have multitasking as 1 click menu, and menu as hold menu :D
[Galaxy S II General] JonnyBrad81:
For old app compatibility a menu button appears on the button bar on the nexus. Obviously this can't happen on the gs2. So unless you only have apps where the dev has embedded a menu button on the screen the app would be broken.

Basically any non updated for ics will be broken.
[Galaxy S II General] PunkOz:

Sorry for the action to be inexperienced but you do not believe that it would be useful to develop this porting can also install it in dual boot mode? Ginger & ICS?

Thanks mate for that.

Newest video by ouverta is up on first post. Thanks to MrBadgerMilk for the link...
[Galaxy S II General] fr3quency:
Dude you're in my mind! I said that when they started porting ICS to SGS2. The MENU button HAS TO be the multitask button. Every app has a settings button. EVERY APP. It's awesome and plus, the menu button, to my eyes, looks like a window that shows running apps(the lines xD). At the very least, make an update.zip to make the menu button be the mutitask button.

Plus, the menu button is now useless because as I said above, EVERY APP HAS A MENU BUTTON. So it's a waste to have 2 menu buttons. They should do it, after everything is working. Or at the very least, make a .zip file for us users that want the menu button to act like the multitask button.

Stop being so narrow-minded. It kills the community and above all, customization...
[Galaxy S II General] qwerty warrior:
ok i really dont understand

This ICS build is near perfect

no lag

no FC

etc

soo

no audio (cant call)

no wifi

no camera

no bluetooth

thats it ?

when hacksung made cm7 there were loads of weird issues

ps heard hacksung got audio and wifi working
[Galaxy S II General] crobat:
Hmm, maybe you could try it with Hellcat's Lolboot
[Galaxy S II General] superleeds27:
Cheers for the latest video. Nearly there now i guess!
[Galaxy S II General] MiloFoxburr:
I'm very confused. Maybe I'm mixing up what the menu button actually is but the majority of applications do not have menu buttons built in their user interface. Talk has no menu button, FBReader has no menu button, Google Music has no menu button, Skype has no menu button, GMail has no menu button, pretty much every browser has no menu button, Go Launcher has no menu button. I could go on and on as nearly every application I have uses the Hardware Menu button to show/hide the menu.

To me it seems completely and utterly insane to change what the hardware menu button does unless you keep ICS's soft buttons.
[Galaxy S II General] JonesWTF:
I'm not too sure why there's such a huge fuss over the menu button? If you actually watch the latest video, it looks like a menu pops up when the menu button is tapped.

Sent from my SGS II via Tapatapatapatalk
[Galaxy S II General] fr3quency:
The apps you mentioned NOW HAVE A MENU BUTTON because of ICS. Galaxy Nexus DOESNT HAVE a menu button. The superuser, although it doesnt have a menu button, it now HAS AN ON SCREEN MENU BUTTON. It's not that hard guys.

ICS automatically adds a menu button...
[Galaxy S II General] :
Check the latest update video by ouverta...look at the main homescreen...you will notice first and foremost that the onscreen buttons(ala galaxy nexus) are not there anymore...

second if you actually pay attention to what he is saying he is telling you guys exactly what they are doing now. building from full source. anyway watch the video again pay carefully attention to what he is saying and all most of your questions will be answered by watching that video....

and yes they have made major progress but do not want to burst anyones bubble but i am sure there is still alot of work to do....so just be patient guys and surely this is our xmas present from the guys:D

PS: my spelling and writing sucks today:D
[Galaxy S II General] mintvilla:
NO.

ICS ONLY adds a menu button if you have the software buttons present.

If you dont have the software buttons (and that would be daft as we already have hardware buttons?) then no menu button magically appears.

So no, the menu button will stay as the menu button, the multitask button will stay as its always been, the long press of the home button.
[Galaxy S II General] fr3quency:
Idc what they are doing atm. We're talking about the menu button. if you had time to write this post, why didn't you explain us what was he saying about the menu button, if he was saying anything about it anyway. tl;dw

Edit: How about...

$software_buttons<---true

$display_software_buttons<---false

?

^_^ So ICS will think it has sw buttons, but they wont be displayed. Solutions exist, if you want to. End of story.
[Galaxy S II General] madman_cro:
can sombody tell me what is working in that latest video . i can understaind sh.. what that guy was talking.

wifi,sms,data????
[Galaxy S II General] Razer(x):
What's fixed in latest alpha?
[Galaxy S II General] mintvilla:
Ofcourse the nexus isn't useless, no where you are mistaken is that the 3 dots (new menu button) doesn't appear in apps, it appears at the bottom of the phone where the other software buttons are.

it works exactly like this on honeycomb tablets btw,

Since we have hardware buttons, it would be daft to have any software buttons (like in the video they have been removed so we have the full screen) therefore there would be no where for the menu button to appear from.
[Galaxy S II General] fr3quency:
Ok, how about this: The menu button acts as the menu button, but long pressing it gives us the multitask page. 8D
[Galaxy S II General] MiloFoxburr:
But long pressing the Home Button already does that. And long pressing Menu brings up Search.
[Galaxy S II General] fr3quency:
It didn't do it for in Alpha 7. Unless they add it in future builds. :P
[Galaxy S II General] :
Right im going to say this once and once only. I am only here to bring the latest updates videos and links from the guys. I opened this thread for everyone to use for general chat and to find out what else is coming from the team. I do not spend all my time on here just to see what is next...That is were you lot come in...I see a link that i have not added on front post and see someone else post it here for me i will put it straight away on the first post and credit the person who found it for me.

I am not advanced user so i would not what they will do or how they are going to implement buttons and etc..Again that is were you guys come in and make suggestions and im sure the team does read this thread to....So you guys are the ones that can help also with suggestions and by playing with what we have at this moment of time.....To recap...

I made this thread for YOU guys and to post all your comments, good luck wishes and ask any stupid question you want here....ETAs and everything else...But i will not and i mean it tolerate users asking stuff that has already been answered from me and other users a million times....There is a search button and also most of the info is on the first post....I want to thank everyone one of you guys who have been helping me out keeping this thread going and i hope you can carry on following this thread and give feedback where is needed and help other users who ask questions and just starting to follow the progress of the port..

Thank you all and most important thanks to the team..Enjoy the rest of your day guys
[Galaxy S II General] PunkOz:
You should make this shorter and put it in the first page so ppl stop doing it (:
[Galaxy S II General] :
i will do if i see people moaning and asking the same questions again and again..so far its ok...but anyway like i said the whole point is not just me getting updates is for everyone to share links that they find and share them on here..:)and i will put them on first post and share with the rest...so its all there for people to see.:)
[Galaxy S II General] NickoPulver:
The problem with that is that people usually skips the first page.....atleast that is what i have seen....people jump to last page and write a question.....but maybe I'm wrong......only one way to find out.....try and see......anyways i have been reading since the thread started.....every single page.....and i just think all the devs are doing a fantastic job and you Matriak31 a great job with the thread and all the other stuff you do........
[Galaxy S II General] :
i know i do the same thing on most threads.. i skip the first pages and go straight to the last page...but i always make sure i read through the last few pages to stay up to date with everything..anyway we are all getting off point here...

keep up to date you guys with the twitter page and to all the rest who are on IRC and on youtube and lets give people feedback and updates just to show them that our guys are making good progress and they are working hard on this project:) and i really need to make a move or else i will miss the footy match:p
