No, it was working fine on GB. This freeze is pretty rare though so I'm not annoyed by it. A simple reboot on the phone fixes it.

Hay guys

I'm planning to install ICS ... and I have been waiting for a long time and watching this thread.

But now ... there are so many of ICS and raining every minute...

I would like to install latest one and bug free...

I have just noticed that that ICS cam for my country, with following "numbers":

I9100BULPC/I9100SIMLP3/I9100BULP/I9100BULPC

1. I would like to know where I can see the changelist? If possible? ( maybe if I download it and look inside the file with 7-Zip?? is it possible?)

2. As I think the latest one, e.g. with highest changelist and based on that "best" one.... or not?

is: I9100XWLP8

Base Firmware: I9100XWLP8 (4.0.3)

Region Australia

Carrier: Optus (OPS)

Build Date: 6th April 2012

Modem: XXLPS

CSC: OPSLP4

Change List: 356487

So can anyone suggest what to do? Or install 1st or 2nd ?

Thanks

D.

help

Hey my SGS2 initially had JPKG5 firmware (2.3.3). And very recently i installed cyanogenmod 7.1 stable. I didnt know ICS was out and i could get it via KIAS or OTA, but i really want to get the official ICS for my international S2.

Since my phone was JPKG5, will these ICS Roms work on my phone?

Cyanogen does not support kias, how can i get JPKG5 firmware and then upadte with KIAS? i tried the thread with all stock firmwares, but JPKG5 is removed and nobody is reuploading it after i requested.

What can i do to get the accurate ICS for my device?

Thanks...

Successfully upgraded to 4.0.3 I9100XWLP7.

everything is great except I cannot connect to my Virgin Superhub anymore? Worked ok in Gingerbread. Any ideas?

Have tried every known setting to man on the router, so wondered if there was issue with ICS?
[Galaxy S II General] CoinCoin88:
Upgraded from old XXKI4 to frankenstein LP8 yesterday, didn't do a full wipe though (really hate to save/restore everything, and not sure backup/restore from GB to ICS is working well...?)

Battery seems to be draining quickly atm, but it might be because of intensive geeking this morning. One bug i've spotted however is the beep for camera focusing in photo mode. Beep is always enabled, even with phone in silent or discrete mode... Anyone having the same issue ?

Also, there is a seemingly random lag when unlocking screen (either by home or power button). Happens sometimes, really random...

I might as well end up wiping and re-flashing tonight (btw, does the CWM "full wipe" also wipes the internal /sdcard ? If it doesn't, restoring will probably be easy, since I'll be able to save every sms/mms and contacts...)

Cheers!
[Galaxy S II General] Donaghy:
As far as I know, there is (by law) no 'discrete' function anymore for the camera. Beep and shutter sounds are enabled by default, and cannot be turned off. Has something to do with dirty old men using their camera phones to take pictures of girls without them noticing, or something. I think you're going to have to live with the beeb.
[Galaxy S II General] vr90:
Does going from GB to a Frankenstein ROM wipe or no? I'm in a similar position right now with the lack of XSA ICS and whatnot.
[Galaxy S II General] victorator:
Or delete the .wav and .ogg files ; )
[Galaxy S II General] someonet1k:
I don't know... I had the beep in LPQ and in LPS but not on LP7 the Luxembourg version. I'm gonna try the XEU now and see if it's better as the Lux one doesn't really go well with my phone. So far the LPS was best but we'll see :D

For the ones really bugged by the beep, there's always the Camera ICS app in Play Store. It's free and soundless if you tell it to be so from the options ;)

Edit: Well, there's no beep in silent mode in LP7 XEU as well. So far so good :D
[Galaxy S II General] CoinCoin88:
Crap, how am i gonna stalk these girls now :( ?

Back to realistic: any concrete link for such a law? I don't really believe it would be enforced, my guess is that it's more of an urban legend. Not that I don't believe you, but I'd like an "official" source (not to mention that it's WAAAAY too much "country specific").

On the other hand, Australia is a great country but with very low tolerance for barely anything... so I wouldn't be surprised if it were the only country in the world to enforce that. Since the LP8 frankenstein is based on the Oz Optus release... you probably know where I'm going...
[Galaxy S II General] Tungstwenty:
This is likely the same reason why call recording is disabled in our ROMs despite the fact that Phone.apk has pretty much all the code in there, but you still need to patch it and also replace 1 or 2 .so files from models on countries where recording is enabled.

I did this yesterday, love LP8. I used Kies to backup my phone then dialled *2767*3855# to totally erase my phone, flashed frankenstein LP8 then restored everything via Kies. Found that Google back up a lot of my settings.
[Galaxy S II General] CoinCoin88:
Do you also have the beep/shutter sound on the camera even on silent mode?

As for your kies backup.... what was included? I don't (really) care for carrier settings or wifi etc... but I'd really be mad if I lost my contacts (yup, haven't synced them with google, i HATE the little "g" symbol) or sms+mms (SMS Backup+ keeps everything on my Gmail account, but isn't able to restore MMS it seems...)
[Galaxy S II General] pstevek:
Hi there.

I'm a newbie but I've tried to follow along.

I reside in South Africa.

I have to Samsung Galaxy S II with me now. Both were flashed to ICS using ODIN as instructed on the first post. Both flashing was successfull.

HOWEVER one of them isn't recognizing any network now. It's on emergency calls only.

Was wondering what could possibly be the issue.

Also what's the difference between Carrier "NA(Unbranded)" and Carrier "SIM FREE(GENERIC)" on the roms on Page 1 ?
[Galaxy S II General] someonet1k:
I suppose Unbranded means that someone has taken the time to remove the carrier logos and other stuff from the firmware while Sim Free is the generic version sent out for unlocked phones.

As for your issue, try reflashing after a factory and cache wipe, or try a different version of the firmware.
[Galaxy S II General] Donaghy:
Here you go. Straight from the Library of Congress (also, a Google search for 'Cell Phone Camera Law' gives several other sources).

It's called the "Camera Phone Predator Alert Act", but it does seem to be a US-only kind of situation; I guess I forgot about the country specificity of such a law.
[Galaxy S II General] pstevek:
OK I will try the SIM FREE Firmware.

Hopefully it will sort me out.

Hello,

Can someone suggest what’s going on with my SII, I flashed it with GT-I9100_XEO_I9100XWLP8_I9100OXALPS_I9100XXLPS but it now just boots to the initial galaxy SII log screen then just reboots itself at the log continuously.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
[Galaxy S II General] vr90:
Be sure to go into recovery and clear your cache. Factory reset if that fails.
[Galaxy S II General] pstevek:
That would be a boot loop.

I updated with Mobile Odin, and used "System". But "Open File" looks like it will work fine too - I just loaded it that way, and Kernel,System,Cache,Param,Modem and Hidden are listed as things to be flashed. So it's certainly picking up everything. My only worry would be whether it's going to overwrite too much :confused: ! All I can tell you for sure is - I flashed system, and it worked.

Try it cos it is not goona change your rom it is just like a kernal so i think you should give a try and later on when cm9 will come you can flash it.

When i start Internet Browser the whole screen goes white for a few seconds, then black, then it just jumps back to home screen with a msg that says "Unfortunatly internet has stopped functioning" or something, cause its only there for a blink of an eye so its impossible to read it.

Hello!

KIES was updated my SGS2 to 4.0.3 (LPQ - Hungary). I like to do a root on my device with the upper method (just only rooting):

"Instructions For Rooting ICS :

Extract the Rooted Kernel

Open the included Odin

Put your device into Download MODE

Click PDA and select CF-Root-SGS2_*-v5.3-CWM5.tar

Then finally click START!"

Is this operation will wipe all of my stored data or clear my settings?
[Galaxy S II General] gyaku_zuki:
I literally just did this - pick "open file" and point it at the tar.md5 file, it'll tell you it has auto-selected kernel, hidden, system etc etc. The just flash.

[Galaxy S II General] Donaghy:
Yup, I just tried to that too ("Open File" that is). Looks like what you just described: Kernel, System, Cache, Param, Modem, Hidden all loaded, all check marks in the Everroot section (injecting etc).

You didn't check the box "Wipe data and cache" now, did you? I don't think that's necessary when using Mobile Odin, am I right?
[Galaxy S II General] NiTi9:
By "Do a wipe before flashing" Do they mean factory reset or cwm wipe?

[Galaxy S II General] Tungstwenty:
I think there are 2 possible reasons for the size difference, at lease I checked the packages made available by Intratech and others, and the ones fetched directly from FUS.

1st is the compression with ZIP or 7Z, which can give different results

2nd and probably more important, is the size of the hidden.img partition, which is pretty much empty but in some packages has been trimmed to occupy only the part actually containing files, but on FUS has the full 512Mb
