[Galaxy S II General] leapfrogg:
Let me give my 2 cents:

First of all, thank you codeworkx you are a hero! We really do appreciate all your hours of hard work! (even if it comes with a big attitude)

From what I understand (not always much) The S2 isn't trying to be and open source phone. If anyone wants to flash custom stuff, well they are on their own. If I own a car the manufacturer isn't going to try to make it easy for me to put a Ford engine in it are they? If you can do it, then good for you. I respect you and people like codeworkx who can!

Further it seems like a lot of what Samsung is doing to ICS is around getting the touchwhiz working. Love or hate it (yes some people DO like it, it does have a few really cool things going for it) it is not up to the developers to decide to keep or scrap it. The decision gets made much higher up and I can understand that the company whats a unique Samsung flavor (hopefully to set it apart from the competition). The developers aren't idiots simply for making the phone work the way that the Company tells them to instead of the way that we think it should work. If you are not a propeller head then you probably don't even know that there are other options. The people on this forum represent a small percentage of their customers.

Well that is my option. I still prefer pure ICS but I was happy with Touchwhiz for a long time too.

Me too, I still got 6 months left on my contract.

Could be a while to wait everyone thought that it was going to be announced at MWC but Samsung have confirmed that they will not be holding a press conference there (meaning no sgs3 launch). So going by the fact that Samsung like to make a big deal about launches, and do them in spectacular fashion, who knows what opportunity Samsung will take for the launch of the sgs3!

But when i use build 01292012 i can instal app on sd card like fifa 12,muffin knight,samurai 2 ,etc

But when i update to last build (02012012) all app in sd card like fifa12 and etc disappear , i try to instal fifa12 and etc again its always say "application not installed"

maybe it all happened because update new kernel in last build

I think I'll go back to build 01292012, my question do I need to wipe all when i go back to build 01292012 or just need wipe cache ?

Hi,

Did anybody experience this problem? Is there a workaround by any chance?

It's driving me (and my phone) crazy and I cannot find a solution nor the reason why its happening.

BTW- without this problem I would say the 01/02 CM9 release is the closest for a Daily ROM. It's almost perfect!

[Galaxy S II General] Trijunction:
Looks like it does not work with Windows 7 Home Basic..or am I missing something!!
[Galaxy S II General] Remoteconcern:
Yes, should be fine. You could also just flash the kernel (not CF-root LP6, but the one from the 29th build) which should work, although I haven't tested.

Zip is attached.
[Galaxy S II General] freemini:
I remember seeing xploid or codeworkx say that causes boot loop. I haven't tried it also, but I don't see why not just use 29th as you don't lose anything.

Hi

I have tried some roms and CM9 i tried some weeks ago.

I then noticed under performance "theme"...I hit the button and nothing happened.

Is this the same on the last verson 02.01 ?

And what launcher do you prefer to this rom?
[Galaxy S II General] Remoteconcern:
Flashing the CF-root version causes problems. Flashing the boot.img of the old build doesn't, as its the haxxed kernel. I'm using it now, and no problems.

Just thought it was a smaller download than the full build, you don't lose your system files and potentially there are some upstream changes etc etc
[Galaxy S II General] freemini:
Nice. I'll download it and save it in my collection of CM9 stuff.

Yes it's the same. Most options of CM9 are just place holders for now.

"All packages below this point have the old bootloader so you can safely reset the binary counter with a Jig. :)

If you've already flashed a full package from elsewhere or updated using KIES and cannot reset your binary counter using the Jig just flash this package in the PDA or Bootloader section of Odin to replace the bootloaders and then you can reset the counter: www.intratech.org/Firmwares/Bootloader/GT-I9100_OLD_BOOTLOADER.7z

something you could expect from a experienced developer who still thinks he's god among others, what he clearly shows with his behavior.

cm9 or not, we'll get it eventually, but until then, wait for new ICS leak from Danny from sammobile, root it then freeze unneeded apps with Titanium Backup. This isn't 1st generation of android phones anymore everyone, official fw still works perfectly without any problems. Hate launcher? Then just install ICS one from XDA forums.

Bye cm9, until you get to at least "all main features work now" stage.

Also, does it matter what firmware version you are on prior to flashing CM7 ?

or is it ok just as long as it's before 4.0.1 ?
[Galaxy S II General] CamoGeko:
Either way mate, you will have to do a data wipe (factory reset) before flashing it. So it shouldn't really matter.

Remember, it's always easier to update your firmware than to downgrade it. :)
[Galaxy S II General] Bamxcore:
Ok, thanks for the help, will try that later, so just to clarify, flash a rom with the old boot loader, root, CMW wipe data, cache, davlik, flash CM7 twice, then should be good to go ?

It's not that I hate TW exactly. I just much prefer the stock ICS apps (dialer, contacts, SMS, launcher, music) to the TW ones. I can only really replace some of those with the stock ones (easily).

Also, I hate the TW lock screen (not configurable enough, ugly), media scanner (broken album art support), and the app that runs during a call, no way to properly replace those without major hacking, AFAIK.

Official FW does have issues eg. Android System using >50% battery, phone running hot, etc.; granted, these are also problems in CM9 at the moment, because it's using the Samsung kernel, but will be fixed once the kernel source drops (I expect).

Overall, I prefer CM9, but can't use it daily due to the issues I explained above and in addition: lack of USB file transfer, sometimes broken RIL, etc.

I know they can't be fixed yet and why, and that's why I don't come on this thread to ask about how to fix them.

codeworkx's post answers the no. 1 question I had (why not try to roll your own kernel for basic functionality for now?) so for now I am going to sit out again and watch this thread until something substantial happens.
