[Galaxy S II General] :
you might find that funny but imagine if all the members in our forum of Galaxy s2 or the people who want cm9 emailed them asking for the source surely that should mean something shouldn't it..their inbox would be so overfilled i am sure they have to take notice....but again that to happen is more of a possibility than me video recording myself with rihanna playing with her legs..:D

[Galaxy S II General] sadonlyone:
yeah... after this most expecting day for my sgs2, I guess we can do almost nothing than share a little smile.

and of course, we can try it. nobody can stop us to say what we want to say. maybe it will work. never know until you try it.

still I'm waiting for stable cm9 (based on official sources developement), like I was waiting for cm7 and so on in the past.

(p.s. for me it seems to be more efficient 9000 mails to sammy + 9000 votes signed petition)

FYI, opensource.samsung.com has a specific "email us" contact for source code requests.

Be specific in your requests as they only handle opensource license compliance there:

Kernel source for GT-I9100 XXLPQ

Be polite, of course.
[Galaxy S II General] Net.silb:
Guys, thanks to Entropy there is another link, you can send emails to both:

Net.silb, nice re-edited. now it's fine. let's hope for something good now.

[Galaxy S II General] :
i signed the petition mate and i think that is good enough for me on my side...i am happy with the current version and i can wait...hopefully the petition is more than good enough in my opinion for Samsung to be a bit more open minded and show a bit more support. Seriously the power of xda and the growth of this community i would be very surprised if they did not cave in
[Galaxy S II General] sadonlyone:
@Stifler69 . It's your choice. I'M waiting for cm9 releases yes, not for kernel sources that should be out there by weeks ago.

Choose one. In fact, you can probably download the official ICS image and flash via odin (not sure if it's a tar or ZIP), but the point is that all stock images (.tar files) are easily available.

Bear in mind that the thread I linked to used megaupload a lot, so expect a lot of dead links. But it has a very helpful instructional post.

Make sure you follow it COMPLETELY to the letter because Odin in the hands of an idiot is a brick factory. :D
[Galaxy S II General] :
well yes mate i am waiting for cm9 releases...but i thought the kernel source is what is needed to fix most of the bugs that are known...but like i said previously i am pretty sure by the time that happens Xplowild probably will have his kernel out and no need for the source..but again the more choices they have the better it is for the team
[Galaxy S II General] freemini:
Guys seriously. Do you really expect them to release the same day? That sounds too good for any company, but looking at Samsung's history too, it's even less probable. Just wait as patiently as you did for months now.
[Galaxy S II General] sadonlyone:
well, let's hope for goods friends. (and do not hesitate if you can do something)
[Galaxy S II General] :
no one expects them to release it the same day mate...**** that would mean Xmas came early if that happen...like i said before..current state of cm9 is a lot better from what the official rom that is out now is...ok we have our known bugs but for me i would stay with cm9 instead of flashing the official lpq rom...anyway no point dwelling about sources when they come they come.:)

Xplo is working miracles as it is anyway;)

[Galaxy S II General] Christian99:
Is Samsung the only corporation to delay? I dont think so. First, they need to ensure they provide the public with something they have tested, implemented gradually and that they fully control. Some justifications:

1) Their image, reputation and also class actions and other warranty claims they encounter. Yes, this is based on the Linux development community (Android is based on linux by Google). But in the same time, you need to keep in mind that the Sgs2 is of an extreme quality/reputation for the company. The more your corporate name gets under high projector, the more you need to ensure that your image will stay at the level. So you cannot just always "release" things when they are not 1) ready and 2) implemented gradually in order to ensure that you will not face an unknown issue in the middle of implementation.

2) Google/Samsung: It is my opinion that they do have to do some "timing" release. Dont ask why, its obvious. So their agreement with Samsung about Codes are of little value since I suspect that there is already timeframe negociated beteen the 2. If something could help, its not sending emails to Samsung but more to Google asking them to force Samsung to release the codes.

3) XDA, while big, is not a representative client for Samsung Sgs2: More than 20 millions devices (sgs2) have been sold worldwild. Do I nee to say that a 9,000 people petition who "root" their phones is not necessary what Samsung will want (and have to) please first).

4) Marketing aspect: There platform Touchwizz is not just "a launcher". Its there all suit of app's which brings back lots of $$$ to the corporation. They even think of abandoning Android to Bada... In order to be able to create their own market of after sale product/services which is a HUGE market. With Android, they are somewhat blocked from this. They do have advantages, but they also need to look at future and risk evaluation. Microsoft will be making their platform open sources and they are starting their "app store". Why do you think?

This is just to open some eyes here. I am only a lawyer in the field of... high technology. And I DO WANT THE SOURCES as much as everybody on here. But when we say things, we always have to try to understand why they happen.
[Galaxy S II General] Fabriciohss:
Couldnt agree more. No way Im changing my cm9 alpha build for a release like that. Unfinished software as always.

Makes me wonder what xplod/code could have achieved if thy had the sources they need by now...

calm down mate...ok we have trolls but we do not need more with your kinda responses....either point the guy to codeworkx earlier post regarding the kernel or just do not say nothing at all which would be probably the better option. no need to get yourself worked up just because of what the guy asked
[Galaxy S II General] Schindler33:
Why should they? It is a company that wants to make money. They want to keep everything closed as long as possible or of course forever.

Suppose they have a great idea for something and implement it on the kernel.then they realise it does not work well. If they now already released sources other companies could snatch the idea and perfect out before Samsung could.

Would you give out unfinished and uncleaned sources if money depends on it?
[Galaxy S II General] gbohm:
well we should really clear up what kernels are there is no magic happening your scenario seems highly unlikely to be honest there is no real reason for samsung not to be more open and connected ro the community with their sources beside of lazziness grief and perhaps shame because it seems not developed that great ;-)

[Galaxy S II General] hedgepigdaniel:
punctuation goes a long way you know...

I get the impression that its more due to a combination of disinterest (and an awareness that despite the legal basis of the GPL nothing is likely to happen to them if they don't comply), and of an irrational fear of releasing inside information to the public. I think it is clearly in their interest to release the source.
[Galaxy S II General] codeworkx:
Cool down and be patient.

It doesn't matter if they're releasing sources today, tomorrow or in a week.

What's really interesting is, that users who are having no direct benefit from sources are crying like hell and dev's who really need sources are patient.

Follow our example and be patient like we are.
[Galaxy S II General] karendar:
If you guys wanna discuss source release, I suggest hijacking another thread... Source was NEVER released the day the new update was release (See update1, 2 and 3 of gingerbread). They're not afraid of anything, they're not hesitant of releasing source publically, they've got NDA's for the code that's not covered by the GPL. The rest we will see in due time.

I'm waiting for feedback on a timeline to see when it's released, but I wouldn't hold my breath for it being in the following days.

Not whining, I love cm9. I just want to check this with ya all and see if there's a work around.

[Galaxy S II General] cloak:
Codeworkx you and the CM team have done a superb job!

I have used the Sammy ICS release for a day now. They have completly demolished ICS. Now I am back to CM again. I know I cannot use the videocam, I know I only can see 2 gps sats , but that will be a matter of time. Overall your Rom is by far superior, even with the known bugs.

[Galaxy S II General] Schindler33:
Yeah I kind of exagerated. But even if there is no reason for them to release sources as soon as possible there is no reason to do either. Except for being community friendly.

Most customers do not profit from realeased sources, so they won't do it to satisfy customers.

There might be reasons for samsung not realease sources as fast as possible so we have to accept it. And if there is no reason, we have to accept it aswell. They will give the sources.
[Galaxy S II General] Xerovius:
Are you actually optimistic about Samsung releasing sources for drivers etc, or is this more of a "probably won't happen, but it can't hurt to try"?

I would like to send a logcat about skype video not working, but after running the logcat command in the SDK, I searched the output and could not find Skype or anything related. Should the Skype application be running and in a call for the logcat command to capture where the potential error may lay?

Also, I found that there are personal information stored in the logcat information such as email, Google Play account contents such as books and so on. Is this information really needed or can the devs also work without them to identify bugs?

Is there any other log information needed, such as stacktrace or the logcat of the radio? (highly doubting that the last one would be needed but still...)

Simple description of the issue: During a skype call today, I tried to open my own video by selecting front cam, screen went black with the Skype controls still visible (such as hang up) but nothing happened and then went back to the "main" voice-only screen. Additionally, the person I was talking to tried to open his webcam but nothing happened on my side and it apparently kept loading on his PC, with no results.

It might be an issue with the app but I doubt it since some people said it works for them. I'll try again after re-installing Skype.
[Galaxy S II General] stealthj:
Yeah, I tried to stock ICS ROM, why not. even tried a few of those 'deodexed' stock ones...

[Galaxy S II General] shayne77:
One thing Android (generally) does lack when compared to iOS is the UI.

Holo Theme is great but you can tell that Google operates in Silos when designing the system apps.

Phone is black/blue gradient (non-transparent) with a pinstripe background. Black Activity Title with a blue indicator

Contacts is white with a blue background in the Activity Title. White indicators and dark grey actionbar.

Messaging is same as Contacts but it has a blackish/dark greyish (cant remember colour code) Activity Title.

System settings is a black/grey gradient (transparent) with Black Activity Title and a blue pinstripe underneath.

Nothing flows at all. With iOS, even the users apps look the same as the OS.

That's one thing that I think Android lacks behind compared to iOS.

And TouchWhiz, I can't believe Samsung think that's even close to as good as iOS in terns of UI functionality. Maybe 5yrs ago but not today.

I imagine that as CM9 develops, most of the problems above will disappear but no thanks to Google/Samsung... it will be thanks to teamhacksung

This makes kernel sources from Samsung nothing. Having your own(latest, not bloated) kernel is so much better than using Sammy's. Remove all the dependencies and almost make SGS2 in a Nexus(only if we had all the sources for libraries as well).

How are most of you installing the nightly updates?

At the moment I am rooted with CF-Root and I was thinking of using Rom Manager to download and flash the nightlys.

Im a bit confused though because the CM9 wiki suggests that you are ok to use Rom Manager but I have seen the odd post stating that you should not use rom manager.

Is it something to do with the version of ClockworkMod recovery that is used? I have the version that came with CF-Root and CW Manager but Rom manager is prompting me to install it which suggests it requires a different version.

Any help would be much appreciated.
