There are only two official XX/OXA ROMs released so far XXLPQ and XXLPW. XXLPQ was the very first ICS ROM to roll out officially.

I have a strong feeling every single ROM released after that up to XWLPF is actually based on XXLPQ and only the CSC, modem and built-in apps were modified per region. The Android source code is probably the same as XXLPQ. There are no new features in any of these ROMs AFAIK.

Now that XXLPW is out, I think future ROMs will be based on XXLPW and will include the new features of XXLPW.

Another thing to consider is that all the beta & leaked roms were XX/OXA. This means that the core development team is only building XX/OXA ROMs (such as XXLPW) and the rest are just customised with no real changes.
[Galaxy S II General] XT69:
XXLPQ, XXLPS and XXLPW :) XXLPS was also official for the same region, I know it since I got it on OTA... :) so if we follow your idea, LPF is based on LPS :) but never mind, i agree with your general idea :)
[Galaxy S II General] LocutusEstBorg:
3D scrolling was both added and removed in leaked unreleased ROMs. It means nothing.

They didn't "remove" battery % because LPW is most likely newer than LPF. The Contacts tab is supposed to look like that. It's supposed to be a button in the tab area which launches the stand alone contacts app, not an actual tab. There is no "bad" graphical anomaly at all.

ok tnx
[Galaxy S II General] tylerdurden83:
Nonsense, ask any developer, the changes to the framework,systemui etc between each intermediate XW rom were at times pretty massive, meaning that it took a lot of time to adapt themese etc to them.

You seem to be using vertumus theme, have you not noticed that he had to fix his theme multiple times to adapt it to the new roms that were being released? If the only changes were the csc, modem and bloatware apps, he'd not have needed to do that.

It means that they had it working on a now ancient rom, but decided to remove it from future roms anyway, for some reason. The only difference between the supposed new features of lpw and the 3d effect is that lpw has been officially released, which in my book means nothing. They also officially released (and quickly pulled from the official servers) ****ty bugged roms with sod bugs like XWLP9, so being officially released guarantees nothing.

Nonsense. You haven't seen the Galaxy S3 dialer, have you?

Strangely, it has the current 3 tabs, plus the contact tab, and guess what, they look perfectly integrated and like each other.

I know that you have been advocating the "pureness" of lpw fervently in every thread, but you are just making things up to back up your wish.
[Galaxy S II General] LocutusEstBorg:
Why don't they just make it easier by having the same base ROM across all regions?

Right now, updated source code is practically round robin hopping between different regions each time some random region gets a firmware update. To stay with the latest ROM, we usually have to change CSC and reset our phones each time.
[Galaxy S II General] ryanswj:
Agreed. Release a base ROM for all regions, then use CSC to apply carrier customisations depending on region. Something like iOS/Windows Phone. This would definitely help Samsung streamline their updating process, and Galaxy S2 users will not have to wait that long for updates.
[Galaxy S II General] Siberian Tiger:
I don't know if someone found this one !

When you are in the last of your contacts if you touch the blue stripe with the

Φ letter it'll go to the first one.

I assume for english would be Y.

I hope we'll see soon a 4.0.4 update :)

Download CheckFusDownloader_v2.1.exe and use it. It is 100% reliable and very fast since it uses Samsung servers rather than some rubbish fileshare.
[Galaxy S II General] Brotuck:
And very fast :)
[Galaxy S II General] Krizp0:
Yeah, but you don't necessarily have to click the 'Φ' one, just whatever letter that is on the top ;)
[Galaxy S II General] tylerdurden83:
Proof? And no, the fact that XXLPW has the battery % and XWLPF doesn't isn't proof. LPF has stuff that LPW doesn't have, just as LPW has stuff that LPF doesn't have, therefore having "exclusive" stuff can't prove or disprove anything.

Until someone provides hard evidence of this claim, we can safely assume that the changelog number is the software versioning commit number of the single software repository that they use (as you'd expect them to).

I flashed LPQ, LPS, LP4, LP8, LP9 (both holland and singapore), LPD, and this is counting ics only, and I've never had to change csc or reset my phone.
[Galaxy S II General] bralgei:
Stock LPD

I have just flashed LPD coming from GB.

Steps:

- Wipe cache, wipe Devlik, format data,

- pulled out battery, Download mode and flashed LPD from Odin

- everything just fine

- rooted with Cf-Root

- Instaled Titanium PRO and closed all Bloatware and useless programs

- ADW Launcher EX (smallest battery usage) Tried all of them including Nova

and Now the conclusion:

- smooth and no bugs

- no wifi bugs

- on the first battery cycle I have 2 DAYS (Data on)

I declare myself satisfied, knowing that after 3 cycles the battery reaches best capacity

No bugs so far after 2 days

LPD was already reported by many to have the wifi SOD bug, just a matter of time

Guys is there anybody else having random restarts with XXLPW? I have changed CSC to XEU now and factory reset and I hope I won't have to face random restarts like before. I will keep you updated. On LPD I didn't have any problems.

why u want still to use XXLPW? we've got other fw like dxlp9,xwlpf,xwlpd that proven less bug.
[Galaxy S II General] mrm1:
Yeh. Had the same issue with LPW. 5 or 6 times in a day at least. Flashed back to LP7 as that is what I had on my sd card and running smooth again. 36 hours and no reboot.

[Galaxy S II General] Brotuck:
You mean from a CM9 version ?

Then you need to repartition and flash with a ROM that has "Data" in it.

Search around for the right ROM you will find it.

Got my first wifi issue here with XWLPF.

It was in deep sleep and when i turned the phone on no wifi was aquired.

After turning wifi off and on it soft-rebooted.

Using stock XWLPF and stock kernel
[Galaxy S II General] Emre9110:
Is the best fw xwlpf or lpd ? What is the changelog of lpf. It is newer isn't it ?
[Galaxy S II General] miguecasla:
Some people say that the LPF is newer because the changelist is higher (592261 vs LPW 413606), but LPW have some features that the LPF don't.

It's taste things :D
[Galaxy S II General] Kusie:
Well I would prefer to know if the annoying WLAN SOD Bug has been fixed with the LPW version, it was first said that with LPF fixed it but this statement:

[Galaxy S II General] jonny_ftm:
1- what he describes is not the wifi SOD issue, he talks about a soft reset

2- most people having issues use alternative mods/kernels

On LPF, still no reports on xda about the wifi SOF issue, neither on LPW I think. On LPD there are reports on the WIFI SOD thread

For me, had the issue on LP7, now, no FC or Wifi SOD on LPF

If I get one, I'll report it

I'm using LPW since Saturday, so far so good, no Wifi SOD so far... still testing... on LPS it came first after one week... so it's soon to declare if LPF os LPW has this bug...

[Galaxy S II General] awojtas:
I've experienced this bug on almost every recent rom except DXLP9 and now XXLPW - I haven't had any instance of the wifi bug on those two roms.

There's a few other changes I've noticed in XXLPW from DXLP9 - some of them may have been included in previous ROMs so apologies if I'm doubling up here:

- New alarm interface for selecting repeating days

- Accessibility: option to speak passwords

- Passwords can be saved for VPN connections

- VPN connection plays ringtone when connected (bug? this is super annoying!)

- Less delay waking up from home button than on LP9/LPD

Confirmed not working for on XXLPW for me either, whether brightness is auto or not.

I've noticed the auto brightness in XXLPW seems slightly more conservative than previous, what I mean is that the brightness is darker in the same conditions as on DXLP9 for example.
[Galaxy S II General] someonet1k:
It wasn't working for me either. Happily the feature is present in LPF and since I use it a lot I migrated from LPW to LPF. No issues so far:D

I don't care witch one is newer I am more interested in battery perfomance.so far it is good on XXLPW.I am still using stock fw because of the battery but once cm9 is final I will change it.But the new options for XXLPW are welcomed!But then again the fact that I cannot swipe to control brightness is a bummer. I remembered I had XXLPF before XXLPW but my x and y were reversed due to the only italy CSC included in the firmware. Can I flash a different CSC with ODIN from a different firmware? Will this brick my phone? What do you think I should do in order to have XXLPF with normal QWERTY keyboard? Thank you!

[Galaxy S II General] nickmax1:
I need this firmware with multi CSC as i am installing it on my mothers phone and doesnt live in the same country as me. She wont be able to upgrade unless she can do it via Kies as she isnt tech savvy enough....anyone have a multi CSC version of this latest firmware?
[Galaxy S II General] jonny_ftm:
She will never be able to update via Kies even with correct CSC

Kies checks for your phone region not in the CSC, but hardware coded I think (IMEI?)

If your ROM/modem/CSC trio is not matching, you'll have "unavailable firmware" message in Kies

So, for your mom phone, you'll have to stay stock and can't update to any later ROM which is not officially released for the phone hardware coded region.

PS: if your mom is not a tech geek really, it could be even riskier to update via Kies, so the question is: will she really update her firmware? Often answer is never will she do
[Galaxy S II General] nickmax1:
Johnny, you are probably right, she wont ever upgrade her phone or need to - i will leave it as it is. The geek in me just wants to upgrade the phone to the latest!!
[Galaxy S II General] Tungstwenty:
I think it should work, provided you flash one of the pre-selected combinations available in CheckFUS.

E.g. if you download the Italy unbranded, you get a package with I9100XWLPF/I9100OXILP6/I9100XXLPX. You'll need to flash it as is (without replacing the CSC), and then you'll need to update the product code with *#272*Device IMEI# and select ITV (*warning* this will wipe all).

This will update the product code - the "harware coded" thing you mention - and for all purposes it's an unbranded device from Italy that will be able to update through Kies whenever a new FW is rolled out for that same product code + trio.

You can of course use any other original FW bundle you want, but for the moment XWLPF is only released originally in Italy: https://sites.google.com/site/rizandroid/ics
[Galaxy S II General] LocutusEstBorg:
ICS XXLPQ which was just released for I9100G has all the new features of XXLPW for I9100.

It looks like XXLPW is in fact the superior ROM and Samsung is building on top of it from now onwards.
[Galaxy S II General] victorator:
Stop with it already. LPW is old and contains all the bugs lp3 and lp4 had.

LPF is newer and better. Just because they put in an extra shortcut to contacts in the dialer tab and included battery percentage doesn't mean it's better.

It has the awful gradient the older firmwares had before, also it's choppy compared to xwlpf.

---------- Post added at 12:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:26 PM ----------

I don't know about you, but I'm really fond of JKay on my XWLPF.
[Galaxy S II General] LocutusEstBorg:
Please, you can't name a single bug that was fixed in LPF that is still in LPW.

Wrong. They put it on the newly released ICS update for I9100G which means they approve of it. As for the I9100, Poland got the first ICS update long before other regions, and now they got the changes in XXLPW first as well.

Baseless, subjective & completely unverifiable.
[Galaxy S II General] MaKTaiL:
100% agree.
[Galaxy S II General] victorator:
Wifi toggle problem. Reported by many already.

T9 Dialer doesn't have the proper first name last name implemented in LP9 and later.

A2DP doesn't work properly (fixed in LP9 and later).

Just to name a few...

And that means... that the law in Poland allows them to mimic the fruit phone without being sued and they would have implemented it a long time ago if it wasn't for all the court problems they are having.

I am from Poland and I am aware of what you're saying. It is a samsung priviliged country mainly because of it's location (center of europe, geographically speaking).

XX - center of europe, XW - western europe (fruit maker sues samsung),

Makes sense now?

Now you're being funny? Can't you see the gradient everywhere?

Open up your contacts, or the phone. Totally objective.

The visibility of this bug strikes the eyes for anyone who used a firmware later than LP7 and downgraded to LPW now. EOT
[Galaxy S II General] Tungstwenty:
I think someone should decompile SystemUI and a few other packages from both ROMs, do a full comparison, and eventually reach some conclusion.

That appears to be the only way of settling this dispute. Good luck :p
[Galaxy S II General] LocutusEstBorg:
You haven't proved any of those exist in LPW because you (or anyone) haven't used it extensively. WiFi toggle fix is still placebo at this point. Everyone hopes it's fixed each time they flash a new ROM but it resurfaces again.

You just proved that XXLPW is a newer firmware.

Resources being changed by some development side-team doesn't mean core firmware is better. There are no new features AT ALL.
[Galaxy S II General] Riskytwin:
I don't know whether LPW is newer or older than LPF but LPD and LPF have new languages as català, basque, galician an other regionals...

That makes me think of newer firmware apart from the changelist.

Languages and multi-CSC codes differ for each region.
[Galaxy S II General] Faryaab:

[Galaxy S II General] Riskytwin:

You have XWLPD ROM (or PDA) - 3rd line

Not to confuse XXLPW radio with the ROM (PDA) XXLPW, which also happens to come with the exact same phone code.

[Galaxy S II General] LocutusEstBorg:
I've come to realise that custom ROMs offer no real benefit on the SGS2. The latest official ROM is the best. Just delete all the bloatware with Titanium and you're set. And you don't have to wonder before installing mods on a clean official ROM. Just pick the ones you want such as JKay's or ICS Domination.

You could also go with NeatROM.

[Galaxy S II General] Donaghy:
Can anyone shed some light on whether or not the following issue with battery life is to be expected?

I'm on the Italian LPF, with Dutch XEN CSC (I sort of Frankensteined my own ROM two days ago with Mobile Odin Pro -> Opened LPF with Mobile Odin and then replaced cache, hidden, and modem with the Dutch LPD firmware). Aside from the fact that it runs fantastically smooth and stable, I feel like I'm getting nothing as far as battery life is concerned. I fully charged the device and unplugged it right before I went to bed. Now, about 11 hours later, I'm at 45% battery remaining, and I didn't do anything with the phone (aside from one 6-minute phonecall).

Battery thingy says that Android OS took 95% of my battery, while calls (2%), standby (2%) and idle (2%) are the only other things on this cycle.

Is this normal? Is this something I instigated myself by Frankensteining the ROM?
