Damn I'm tempted to ring vodafone and ask them to disable NITZ in the UK till a stable release of ICS is available.

I'd love to hear what they would say. Lol

In an ideal world hey.

There should be a sticky for this rom in q&a so we can ask our noobish questions, i have no choice but to do ot here:

How do i change the bootloader to an ics one?

Are the newer versions of cwm not working with this? Since the first post says we need " a working cwm like the one on cm7"
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] brendonwardmusic:
You flash the bootloader using Odin.

Some people have had success just flashing the CWM zip twice.

When I first loaded CM9, I first restored airbus360 ics rom alpha 13 because that loads the ICS bootloader. Then flashed the CWM CM9 straight after twice before I rebooted.

OMG...this version works almost flawless for me...the bugs listed on the first page are not that important for me. The mic works, RIL works (inc. 3g...using MTV Mobile from KPN, Netherlands and they do not use NITZ, so i am happy), wifi works, sd-card works, face unlock works, market (and all other g.apps) works, camera works, PowerAmp works (it's very slow with the library scan, so the sdcard is still buggy)..............NICE!!! The interface was faster on Airbus's ROM, but this rom contains less bugs!!! THNX GUYS!!!!!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Chad_Petree:
God i hate odin, gonna try with cwm, where can i find the bootloader?

If i flash the leaked kp2 will that flash the new bootloader? Which cwm is compatible with this rom?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ayamary:
Heheh... That was a joke, right? If you weren't actually joking, you should probably go and google /dev/null

Overclocking on an unstable alpha release? Hmm...

You know what? Do it. Overclock it to 1700 mhz. I'm sure the performance will increase 10 fold..

Good luck.

Android 4.0.3 has the Android Os Bug! A new one. Android Os Usage -> 30 %. **** you google!!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] alexeiw123:
So, I'm on Telstra(Australia) which IS a NITZ carrier, but I wanted to play so went ahead and flashed through CWM, no access to ODIN today, so skipped the booloader bit. And to my suprise, all has gone well! I've had 3G/H working fine, wifi working, calls working. Can't believe, it, as I'm on a NITZ carrier.sure, there's gripes and stuff, but way better than what I was expecting.

My only issues so far;

XDA app willnot install from market.

Can't get Facebook to sync.

Minor issues. Stoked on this.... tempted to leave it.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] qwerty warrior:
dont seem to have this problem

did u try a full wipe ?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] iamnotkurtcobain:
Yeah did a full wipe. Android Usage over 30 %. It's a known problem with 4.0.3. Version 4.0.1 doesn't have this problem...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AleXHB:
What did you do??? I also skipped the bootloader thing and my phone freezes after a minute or something like that, i have to restart it but it's the same story

Get no signal on this one... What am i doing wrong?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] kranti2064:
Downloaded, flashed and voila...!!!

So what none of my videos work (they are 720p mkv's), so what my phone crashes randomly (I am no Dev... :), but I can livw with that, have a second phone and nandroid backup)...

I had bet 5 people in my office that my phone will be the first one to get ICS and I won (thats S2 against Experia Arc, Moto Razr, HTC Sensation, HTC, Galaxy Note & SE Experia Neo)...

I can't even imagine the look on their faces when I show them my phone tomorrow...

Thanks to all the devs who made this port...

Merry Christmas... !!!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] serrov91:
Just tried it 10 minutes, the ROM is impressive even though we clearly see it's still unstable. I especially liked how fast the camera take pictures, nothing compared to the "0-second response" from the Galaxy Nexus but still, definitely faster than any other Gingerbread based ROM.

After 5 minutes, my phone became very hot, so I went back on VillainRom...

Other than that, widgets are neat, Gmail and contacts app are amazing too, many goodies for a Christmas day! Definitely worth the try!

Thank you CM team for this Xmas premiere!

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] alexeiw123:
Well I can't be certain without restoring nandroid, its XXK*4 haha, its a 2.3.5 one, same modem, latest supercore kernel. I just download cm9, gapps, face unlock from link, cwm > wipe > flash all 3 > wipe > reboot. First time sync wasn't there so flashed gapps and wiped again, that was near 4-5 hours ago and its still going strong. I've had no FCs,no dropouts. Calls working, bar the black screen thing.. I've rebooted a few times with no real need too. Not sure hey...?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] arikyeo:
Maybe it would be better to label what's working and state everything else that's not on working list to be not working. That should ease the confusion that's going on some of our minds now at the mention of 'a lot more'.. Gonna test this ROM now anyways.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] arikyeo:
(Sorry for OTing)

Whatever.. Just buy another battery dam*it. You will have to live with it since battery life doesn't normally come with a smartphone. I've grown very accustomed to it since every smartphone that lands in my hands don't last over a day of normal usage though I SMS very heavily (50-80 SMSes a day; purely business though). Worst was the DHD which didn't want to last more than 6 hours..

Yeah, its in the darkyOTA app. Seems good, allows for BLN, and super convenient with that darkyOTA app.

But you will not get mobile DATA.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] maximus007:
Great work for a teaser ROM, codeworkx & TeamHacksung. Looking forward to the progress over the next few weeks to make it stable.

Out of curiosity, since the mood in this thread seems pretty good, do you have any idea what is causing the overheating/fast battery use? Is it something that can't be fixed until kernel sources are released?

But for these issues, it would almost be useable on a daily basis for me.

My report so far:

I have the UK version of the phone running on ATT. Data and calls work to my surprise. Not sure if this would turn out to be an issue if I was out and about. Going skiing tomorrow so I'm going to flash back to GB for my music sake. As reported previously, the rom reboots when trying to look at app info. Also, I completely forgot to do a factory wipe and have actually not had any issues as of now besides Google Voice acting funky. I'll report more in a few days. Extremely impressed so far. :)
