no, because you made this post no one will make an ASOP ICS for you.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jasnmb:
Why do devs have to use cm as a base? Are there no other devs that can do the same work as what cm is doing?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jessejames111981:
they would have to completely build a rom from scratch code which is very time consuming. It is why really you see most roms are based of stock until CM releases a rom. Its like that with any phone. That is why CM support is so important so that other devs can modify and make custom AOSP roms.

Another thing that is needed is a kernel thats compatible with ICS, All we have are GB kernels

[Q] ICS?

hey guys quick question does anyone have any idea when we'll be getting ICS?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:
search, this has been asked thousand of times
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] newellj79:
A co-worker just got a t-mobile galaxy s 2. He wants me to root it and put ics on it. I'm hoping somebody can point me to a stable ics rom where all features are working. He does use 4g. Thanks guys.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] iLeopard:
You obviously haven't been keeping up :D

No ICS for SGSII yet, only GB ROMS.

Darkside ROM works well

Juggernaut 4.1 ROM works well

_Tuesday's ROM works well

There is an ICS theme for the Juggernaut ROM but again, there are no ICS ROMS for this phone yet
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jdaclutch:
Don't think we have a single ICS rom....yet... I could be wrong:rolleyes:

2 questions:

1. is t mobile sgs2 getting ics?

2. If so is it going to look like the galaxy nexus?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] peconaut:
Yes its getting ics and its going to be a combination of ics and touchwiz. Also it won't look like the nexus because the Galaxy S2 is made by Samsung
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bmakk2055:
Is there a link somewhere I can read about
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Lavundra21:
the nexus is also made by samsung...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bmakk2055:
are there two versions of the s2 out? The one my friend got don't look like the one at the Tmobile store.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Wilsonium:
There are several iterations of the SGSII on the market. And even tho they all belong to the same family, many have different hardware implementations. So be careful and make sure anything you do to your SGSII is specifically built for your device or your brickage risk increases dramatically.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bmakk2055:
do you think the sgs2 is the best phone tmo got at this moment?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] peconaut:
Yeah but its not pure Samsung since Google had alot of the input unlike the SG2 which is 100% Samsung. Thats why our android firmware is call Touchwiz.

Yeah the SG2 is the best T-Mobile phone right now. AI upload a pic of I picture that I saw
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bmakk2055:
can't wait, is that tmo sgs2?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] s10shane:
i dont think thats what ics is gonna look like for our phones. here is a link with a video of ics with touchwiz for the other version of the gs2 and it looks nothing like that picture u posted and since this has video for proof i would believe the video much more then a picture lol.. but i would rather it look like the photo u posted since it looks more like ics then touchwiz

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Lavundra21:

Instead of asking a question that has been asked dozens of times, a quick forum search or google search will net you many results all with this answer:

It is coming, be patient. Devs are waiting on Samsung source for our chip, since since it is different (read: not exynos).

When it drops, there will be ICS roms galore. Until then, flash something else, buy a GNEX, or try to build one yourself and stop asking.

Or not. Like I said, at the time I had posted it was still the same two videos so there wasn't a need for a new thread.

---------- Post added at 06:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:04 PM ----------

I had no intention of turning it into a steaming pile, I appreciate the work he is doing and such and certainly wasn't trolling the thread. I was post my "view" along with a simple question.

I very much appreciate the work that is being put into this, xboarder is certainly very talented to only be 16 years old, The forums are just so cluttered with crud sometimes that I didn't personally see a need for a new thread, but now that another video was added and it was simplified into a single post in the thread OP I have a different opinion.

I just want to get along with everyone :) Just made a silly post, wasn't intending of trolling anything. While I may be very blunt at times with posts, and some things can come across as rude, I am not, and never will be a troll :)

Hi All,

Last night I noticed that my phone wasn't going into deep sleep mode. I found out that the service which is preventing it from sleeping is "Exchange Services". I'm pretty sure that this is an android application.

I haven't installed anything new so I'm not sure how to get rid of it.

Anyone have any ideas?

I've run out of ideas.

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] d.cortez:
i'm dealing with the same issue. do you use exchange email? for me it's my exchange calendar for my work account. i have two other exchange accounts and they behave very well. when i used when i used Modaco's r11 (4.04) and the CDN 1.33 ROMs, it wasn't happening. i monitored activity for one night and it was OVER 100MB of data. the only resolution for me is to disable the calendar sync until i need to use it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ahsengah:
Hey Cortez,

I found out why it was sucking away my battery life. Turns out my account wasn't syncing properly so the phone kept it awake for ages trying to sync it. What I did was just remove my email account and re-add it.

Worked a treat! :)

Give it a go too.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] DoctorQMM:
Damn... got a bit too adventurous with the SR. Used the UOT Kitchen to make a simple battery/icon mod. Created the zip successfully.. but don't have CWM installed (running stock 3e Recovery). I was rooted running OTA 2.3.6. On my PC, I extracted the framework-res.apk from the zip and moved it to the SR. Moved it to /system first to fix permission (rw.r.r), then was going to move it to /system/framework folder. But being a complete azzclown, I thought I'd be cautious and rename my stock framework-res.apk to framework-res.apk.OEM. Didn't even have a chance to move the cooked up framework-res.apk to /system/framework folder cause as soon as I renamed the good framework-res.apk, I was in FC hell. F. Anyway, now I'm stuck at the "SAMSUNG" boot screen. What's the best course of action at this point?

I can get into stock 3e Recovery Mode... but hoping there's a way I can just somehow rename my good framework-res.apk.OEM back to framework-res.apk. (Reality tells me I can't). Anyway, I do have a Titanium Backup on my external SD. Just not sure what the best steps are from 3e Recovery: In 3e Recovery, do I "wipe data/factory reset" ? Do I need to "wipe cache partition", or will I just F it up more.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] appdroid:
I m pretty sure this will help!

it's Sean's work!

When in 3 e recovery do a factory data reset (home button is enter)

7. now close and reopen odin

8.pull the battery on your phone and put it back into download mode

9.in the pda slot this time select clockwork recovery.tar

10.make sure your phone is in the com slot and hit flash

11. now reboot into clockwork also doing a factory data reset

12.clearing cache partition

13.go to advanced and clear dalvik cache

14. lastly go under mounts and storage and format system

15. now install any rom of choice .. your phone should be clean
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] DoctorQMM:
Appdroid... thanks for the quick reply... appreciate the help. I was avoiding putting CWM on until official ICS OTA rolled out... was going to keep the OTA 2.3.6 and 3e Recovery until then. If I wipe data/factory reset from 3e Recovery, will this put framework-res.apk back in /system/framework? Or is my only option now is going to download mode and Odin flash (and trip the counter)... :mad:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cdshepherd:
It may work, try it ans see, i wont hurt anything, have you ever had cwm on your device at all?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] DoctorQMM:
I've never installed CWM... I rooted the stock 2.3.5 with SuperOneClick back in November, then took the OTA 2.3.6 update... and maintained my root. I just did the wipe data/factory reset.. that looks like it only wiped my user data and reformatted the /data partition. Now when I try to get back into Recovery Mode, I get a white triangle with a yellow exclamation in the middle.. and a green droid under that.. WTF?

OK... I can get back into 3e Recovery... but can confirm, the "wipe data/factory reset" only erases user data... it formats the /data and /cache partitions. When I reboot from Recovery, it still gets stuck at the 2nd SAMSUNG during boot. Do I need to Odin flash CWM, or can I somehow Odin flash the stock 2.3.5 with 3e Recovery, then re-root... or will flashing the stock ROM also trip the counter?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] cdshepherd:
I believe kernal only trips counter, but who cares about the counter. Do what you gotta do to save her. You could prob just odin cwm, wipe and flash a rom
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] DoctorQMM:
UPDATE: saved the Rocket!

Appdroid, cdshepherd: Thanks (and XDA Thanks buttons pressed as well!). Brought the SR back from the brink of brickmania. Nearly 5 hours of hell from one idiotic move (which was renaming "framework-res.apk" instead of simply overwriting it with the UOT Kitchen cooked-up mod). Anyway, used Sean's method to wipe phone and Odin flash CWM. Then the fun really started when it was time to flash a ROM via CWM.. and I had no ROMs on my sdcard! So pulled my external sd out of SR, put it in a MicroSD adapter... then discovered my desktop computer couldn't read my MicroSD! So, shoved the MicroSD adapter in my work laptop, it auto-added drivers so SD was recognized in the laptop. Then, back to the desktop and copied my ROM of choice (went with silver03wrx's Stock 2.3.6) onto a USB flash drive. Ported the USB flash drive over to the laptop and copied the Stock 2.3.6 ROM to the MicroSD. Finally, popped the external SD out of the adapter and back in the SR... booted into CWM recovery, and flashed the ROM from the external SD. Things began to become much more clear after my 3rd beer and the clock striking 1am!

Re-downloaded Visual VoiceMail, Superuser, and all my purchased apps. After reinstalling Root Explorer, I actually braved the UOT Kitchen fiasco again and flashed my Kitchen mods... all working to perfection. Titanium restored all my user apps+data (and yes, did NOT restore ANY system stuff). 2am now and all that remains is to reinstall the volume button camera mod and translucent 3.4.4 Market app (both of which are pretty cool), and get my home-screen widgets re-setup. Oh, and by the way, my custom binary counter is still "NO", and says "SAMSUNG OFFICIAL". After all of this, I'm not sure why I even cared about the counter.... but in any event, it's still "0". Thanks XDA for all the stellar helpful posts and development materials.
