Nope this is not true.

Even the SGS1 got an update recently. (Fri Apr 13 14:42:08 KST 2012 is the build date)

But they will slow down on releases that would be normal.
[Galaxy S II General] ankurprime:
Search for XWLPE stock kernel. It'll do the job. Or get triangle away apk from xda. It'll reset the counter and remove the yellow triangle too.

See this link for stock kernels http://androidfirmwares.net/PhoneKernel

We are hoping to get Touchwiz 5.0 like galaxy s3 on 4.0.4
[Galaxy S II General] cosminvld:
I kind of think that too...S2 is history for Samsung, they need to sell S3!

S1 was a badge, that's why they kept updating it.

My opinion!
[Galaxy S II General] chestvrg:
Very hard and strange, but I don't seem to find the XWLPE stock kernel in this link. I have search for such, but searches return XWLPF instead. Do you think I can flash the XWLPF w/o bricking my GS2 or a better route would be to purchase the XDA developer's APK triangle erase utility? I will begin at this point to search for this utility.

Thank you Ankurprime, I just went ahead and purchased the triangle away app for $1.99 and it worked like a charm :) thank you so very much.
[Galaxy S II General] whiskerp:
I doubt it. Why would they release 4.0.4 for SGS 2 to dilute the unique selling points of SGS 3. I think SGS 2 updates will be bugfix only from now and few and far between.
[Galaxy S II General] egps2:
I would also like that but an excellent port has been posted here by Smando:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1666384#

I use the 1.6beta version but recommend 1.5.1. It is a great port of the new Touchwiz nature UX launcher that comes with the S3.

I personally am waiting only for continued enhancements to battery and performing :)
[Galaxy S II General] mihaixp:
Yeah, sure. That's why they left it with GB (and with that useless VP update). Cause they care too much about the S1.

[Galaxy S II General] eseregin:
Not only, but also due to hardware limitation sgs1 - low memory, not so fast cpu...

Ics likes memory a lot :-)
[Galaxy S II General] ankurprime:
Triangle away is freely available on xda, but you did the right thing by purchasing it! It will work on any official 4.0.3 ROM on S2, so you now won't need to download the stock kernel separately after flashing. Flash away!
[Galaxy S II General] chestvrg:
Thank you again, I paid for it anyway, it helps the developers. I went through a lot of headache trying to find that stock kernel & in the end I didn't find it.
[Galaxy S II General] Davith:
Doubt it. SGS 2 remains a very good midrange phone that's selling well. It hasn't gone cheap either yet.

Call me crazy, but I think it could even get Jelly Bean. This is completely different to the first Galaxy S. That phone was a mess software wise (file system was ****) and limited hardware wise considering what was needed for ICS. The SGS 2 will surely be powerful enough to handle JB just fine, and porting it may not actually be too hard for Samsung.

Not that I care if they don't. By the time JB comes to the SGS3 (betting on april 2013) I'd have changed my phone and if not, I'd be using CM10 anyway.

[Galaxy S II General] chestvrg:
What is supposed to be new on 4.0.4 that the 4.0.3 firmware already doesn't have? Are there some specific factors that would merit to upgrade to 4.0.4? On ICS 4.0.3 we should already have most of what is useful, the inclusion of google chrome and syncing of bookmarks. That is a plus for me.

battery

Last night I updated without erasing my applications the ICS, and I saw the battery was uncharging very fast (15 minutes of use 10% of download).

This morning early I decided to delete it, format everything, leave it as 0km and I did the reset from the boot. I installed a few applications, at the end, the battery had gone from 100% to 75%. After, I full charge the phone, I went to the collegue (there I do not use it much, only some tweets at brake or views of time) and after nearly 3 hours and the battery is 40%! I should clarify that I do not use wifi, all by H + or 3g depends on the place.

It happens to all? or I am the only person has problems with the ICS? my ICS version is the Nordic Countries from Sammobile. If I had the 2.3.6, using that I gave during the day, it had discharged to 70% as much.

Tell us your experiences with the battery

CM9 is entering a code freeze phase meaning that no new features will be added before first stable release ... but wondering when it reaches stable?

According to SGS2 CM9 thread SGS2 CM9 thread it looks to me, that there still is a lot of small bugs and glitches ...

Think i'ill stay with stock 4.0.3 ... and hopefully get a 4.0.4 update later this year.

At that time CM9 might be stable and then I'ill make the transition :)

Actually, there have been 2 newer firmware releases since LPG.

One was for Puerto Rico, and the second one released for Argentina.

If anyone decides to give it a go, please post any differences between them and XWLPG here. I gave up on samsung 4.0.3 roms. Last good samsung rom for the S2 was XWLA4 imo. All the ICS is crap compared to how smooth and battery friendly gingerbread is. Not to mention CM9.

Is XWLPG newer than my XWLP7 ?

What are the benefits of switching to XWLPG?

Thanks.
[Galaxy S II General] milu_m:
Yes, XWLPF, XWLPG are newer than XWLP7. Benefits? hmm, stability mainly. Some people are saying that it resolved wifi bug for them.
[Galaxy S II General] someonet1k:
Actually it depends from a device to a device. Sometimes one firmware works better on phone A but awful on phone B and vice versa for another firmware. The best bet is simply to install it, run it a couple of days, and you will see if it's working better for you or not. For my case, LPF works best so far with the best battery life, no bugs worth mentioning and it's overall stable as a rock. Many people do have the same effect with LPG for example so again - try it and you will see if it's working good on your particular device or not.

On LP7 I had the wifi bug a couple of times, but it was fixed by switching Airplane mode on or off or restarting sometimes.

I have the "brick bug" unfortunately, will there be any issues if I switch from LP7 to LPG?

Also, will there be any problem if I skip the "wipe and factory reset" step?
[Galaxy S II General] milu_m:
With stock kernels for I9100 you are safe. It's generally advised to do the wipe but not required. You may try without wiping and if you encounter problems like crashes, locks, short battery life then do wipe.

[Galaxy S II General] ricnar456:
Samsung argentina always put your upgrades in OTA first, and after two or three days put in KIES for download, wait and see the next days.

If was anounced in facebook, will be available soon, you can see hundred of users who claims for upgrade and for months hundreds of responses of samsung nothing nothing.

When a upgrade is anounced is sure will be soon, I can sign this.

rooting instructions still apply from this thread

while you're in that temporary CWM, after you flash SU-Busybox you might as well flash AppOptimizer.zip

It lowered my ram usage from 330 to 268 on this specific rom, I'm talking about a direct comparison 2 minutes after boot, before and after.

It works great as most of the .apks found on stock roms are not optimized at all!

After you restore your stuff and set up your phone to your liking I recommend to flash appoptimizer again.

Clear cache and dalvik after that. Then reboot and enjoy.

[Galaxy S II General] Tungstwenty:
Changes from XWLPG to XWLPI

Despite the big change list, actual changes in XWLPI are are close to none.

* Resources in a number of apps + framework were retouched, to have a slightly darker transparency, I think;

* Camera app now has a wider list of CSC codes where the shutter sound is forced active;

* Very slight change in Exchange when setting up an account (not relevant);

* Scroll bounce effect removed from the framework

As for the CSC package, the only change is PolarisOffice which was updated from version 3.0.3120.23 to 3.0.3122.05.

And that's it, except perhaps kernel changes that I don't care about anyway since I don't use the stock one.

Disappointing, to say the least :(

from stock 2.3.5 to this ics.. without root

hey there.

I have a i9100g. I have already rooted it, and am happy.

yet i am still fairly new to rooting etc..

Yesterday i bought a phone for a family member, I9100 .. it comes with stock 2.3.5 gb.

i want to put the latest stock ics before i give it them, without rooting the device.

kies says there is no update, like i expected. it is from the middle east region.

I have downloaded odin, and the latest nordic ics build 4.0.3. i have tried the method at the beginning of the thread, but there are 2 problems:

1. i dont think gb 2.3.5 has a stock recovery mode... i have tried several times.

2. Odin does not recognize the phone when it is in download mode. it has no problem when the phone is on normally, but if i put it in download mode, and plug it in, or plug it in while it is off, then switch it on in download mode, it does not recognize my phone?

Can somebody please help me? i dont mind if you point me to the right thread, its totally fine, but if you can tell me what to do, thats really helpful.

Its only because i am pressed for time, that i prefer you to tell me, other wise i would search through the forums myself. but if you dont have the time to tell me, but know the location of the solution, please tell me where to read.

the thing is its also someone elses phone.

so i dont want to root it..
