ok thanks bro.so if i flash an ics rom lets say omega ics rom i am ok?thanks again

EDIT:just flash resurrection remix ics and the triangle is gone.anybody know why?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] joaonds:
Gentlemen, I encouraged the creator and i bought by the Google Play 10 minutes ago (Naves on GooglePlay) ... (I paid for his beer :)).

But before using, I wanted to ask you something:

I really need to use the application? I mean, what's wrong with having the count and the triangle on each boot?

I'm asking this because I am a normal user, I'm not hardcore, it makes difference to me?

On the status of my S2: visible triangle and count = 1. I need use ?

I've bought, but I'm scared to use.

Thanks for your attention.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ephraim:
You are ok to flash anything as long as through cwm or mobile odin. If you flash through odin (PC) a custom kernel then your triangle and flash count will comeback.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ephraim:
It will make no diffirence. But just incase your phone needs to be sent to the service center it's better to remove the triangle and reset the flash counter in order that they won't detect that you flashed an unofficial firmware or kernel and thus voiding your warranty.

dun worry guys, if u r on ICS rom feel free to use this. No bricking guaranteed!

The only bad thing to come out of this is you will lose count of all your ROM flashes forever.:p
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] DJ SNap:
Can someone tell me what should I check before using this app? I can't catch the point :( . I've read all of the manual in first post but still - i have no clue what to do before using TriangleAway app.

---------- Post added at 09:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:45 PM ----------

I'm using Omega v7 ROM (based on ICS of course).
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ephraim:
Basically when you use the app it will display the flash count and either if the triangle is visible or not.. If the description matches what you have on your phone then it's ok to proceed. And oh, it will also display what phone you have.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] DJ SNap:
Ok - but tell me what if couters matches but visibility of triangle not? In my SGSII it's ok (the triangle is visible when phone starts and in the app) but what to do if not?

Couters matches, triangle is not visible when phone starting but app says triangle is visible. And what in reverse order?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ephraim:
Some says their model number doesn't match or the app says the triangle is not visible while it really is but successfully reset the counter. Better PM chainfire for clarification though.

It worked on CM9 4.0.4 but I got the very old boot screen (custom) from another ROM back.

It's not galaxy S II..... and triangle (that was before)

I get this error:

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] feyce:
HOLY

S#!T

I almost thought this app bricked my device...

I used Foxhound Latest ICS ROM. I applied this "fix", then first the original dialer app went off, I mean, instead of starting, it force closed every time.

Ok, I restarted the phone, then message app and mostly all the main apps went off...

Great, I restarted into recovery and did a factory reset, then almost no apps wanted to start, I just kept receiving so many force closes, my phone started to heat! (Y)

Then I tried to flash a stock ROM via ODIN.

I had to flash 3 or 4 times, because every time I got bootloop... and between every flashing process, when started up recovery (for do factory resets/cache clears) I got a dozen error messages, saying a lot of files missing or corrupted...

I don't want to rep down this app, but I'm pretty sure this app caused the malfunction, because I used or install NO OTHER app after this, except the built in browser...

So this app works, but quiet dangerous :/
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] rickyq12:
Well...

I was just as paranoid as the next user that is afraid to try this app.

Hi I just tried this and worked flawlessly on CM9 nightly april 2nd build.

I have one question though, is there a limit to how many times you can use this?

I'm sure that flashing a bunch of other roms/kernels along the way will eventually get me that yellow triangle again.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ephraim:
You'll get the triangle if you flash an unofficial ROM through odin. Through CWM is fine.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] melkm4n:

Hi,

Not sure if this has been brought up before, but I could not find anything searching for "minus" or "negative" in this thread.

My issue is that the app reports -86 instead of 156 or something similar.

I have not dared to reset, as the values does not match.

My guess would be that none has tested this with a three digit number and thus missing part of the register?

Some more info; I am on CM9-ish with latest teamhacksung-ish kernel.

GT-I9100 with Secondary Bootloader v3.1 version.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Borfas:

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] rtorbs:
Just checked that....i take it thats not the hidden counter though as mine is at '0'

I used a jig previously on gingerbread so didnt have the triangle anyways but have flashed at least 30 roms since.....

Where can i see the 'real' count?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Borfas:
not believe to be contour hidden.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] rtorbs:
Can someone pls clarify what this app does ?

Does it remove the triangle and reset the flash count for ICS roms as the jig did for gingerbread? i.e its a rep for the jig (From what i understood, samsung were aware of this and could still see the real count ?....could be mistaken)

or does it reset all traces of custom flashes so as not to have to be concerned in the event of a warrenty return?

thx
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] cknuth:
Doesn't the OP pretty much clear this up? Anyway I just used it on cm9. Counter at 0. No triangle. When is Samsung ever gonna show up at your house and check?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Borfas:
Friends, I have not heard nor saw as something that can ruin hardware from some application.

I was 54 flashes, the sound broke the phone,i repaired to guarantee free.

without reset contour !!! (ITALY)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] rtorbs:
No....hence why I'm asking.

I used a jig about 9 months ago so don't have the triangle but I'm 99% sure that there was some mention of a hidden counter at that time....it may not be true however.

Post should say 'alternate option for USB jig for ics users' ....for me its probably not required
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Gutana:
Anyone know how this'll work with Siyahkernel dual-booted? Can't imagine it'll make a difference, but its worth asking before i try.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ephraim:
Simple, when you flashed a kernel to root your phone through odin it gave you the triangle and increased your flash counter. Then as you said you removed it using a jig but you flashed roms about 30 times right? Most custom roms is flashed through CWM (Which does not increase your counter or adds the triangle) hence you didn't increase your counter, so no need for triangleaway for you buddy :)

Okay, to be more exact I's BUGGY and dangerous.

Lately I used this app right after flashing a new Rom, so before any modifications, and this program usually cause to lose my internal SD, but after a Restart, everything seems okay.

But i still don't get it how this app could make a ROM to break down totally. (It did to me)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] saMMuel'sky:
Hi.

I have installed this .apk, and now I'm not sure, if I can just press on Reset flash counter button, and that's all?

I never did it before, and I don't want to brick my phone, so that's why that stupid question. :o

Thanks!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] espenfjo:
Yes, as the OP states.

As long as you have sane/correct values it should be safe enough.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] saMMuel'sky:
Yes, in Download mode it shows:

ODIN MODE (with red)

PRODUCT NAME: GT-N7000

CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: YES (6 COUNTS)

CURRENT BINARY: CUSTOM

And yellow triangle is shown in the startup.

In the TriangleAway under Current Status it shows:

Triangle: Visible

Counter: 6

Device: GT-N7000

So I guess I can really just press Reset flash counter button? :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] espenfjo:
Yes.

The values match, so everything should be good to go.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] saMMuel'sky:
Thank you very much mate! :)

I just have to be sure, because I don't want to screw my phone. :D

*10facepalms because one is not enough.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] aceofclubs:
I have no idea why you are getting these side effects.

But what I'm getting from reading the 1st post is that this app doesn't just simply change a value in a database. It has to do some low level and dangerous processes to get around Samsung's attempt to lockup the bootloader for ICS.

There is some risk involved and that is stated very very clearly in the 1st post.

Preferred method in my opinion is flash old bootloader (can be found easily), use the USB jig to safely reset flash counter, then if desired flash the New bootloader.

This also has its own risks.
