Hmmmmm has anyone loaded and tested ICS for UK three network ? i believe it was released today at 0600am and is available to download from samfirmware, however im unable to log in ?servers full ............. :confused:

I would be gobsmacked if its the same as the first lpq release (buggy), which I am still using and has given me poor poor poor battery life 1.6 days of light use..... and yes i did a full wipe , ive never used titanium i always start as a completely new setup, rooted and removed bloat.

its crazy how all us peeps on here spend so much time researching upgrading flashing rooting customizing tweaking reinstalling deleting and for what .... because lets face it the bottom line is the galaxy s2 will never have great battery life because 1. its screen size and 2. its battery

All I want from samsung is a minimalistic stable rom with great battery life

I actually cant believe all the blurry videos i've took of my daughter growing up with the galaxy s2 and then ICS comes along and for the most part fixes it ..... its crazy how on earth was the phone first released with such poo video recording well at least its better now :D

I'm using 3uk ics now.downloaded from check fuz and installed via mobile odin . Running smooth . It is lpq, but I was on polish lpq before and didn't have ANY of the issues you mentioned, I was also getting 3 days battery out of it... Think you should check your setup.
[Galaxy S II General] kitch9:
Wait, 1.6 days is considered poor battery life now?

Some people need to wind their neck in and realise advancements in battery tech is slow due to engineers and innovators struggling with the laws of physics, so until we get mini fusion reactors in our smartphones we will have to consider 20-24 hours of normal use before it needs juice the norm. They don't have the luxury of the Ipads size (which is just basically a massive smartphone.) to whack in a massive battery.

Either that or just buy a Nokia 6310.....
[Galaxy S II General] Dmonty:
+1 sgs2 is a smartphone ie computer, how long does a laptop battery last ? Point made
[Galaxy S II General] lstreet:
LPQ has poor battery life compared to uk generic 2.3.4 ki4 official rom which gave me around 3 days light use with the exact same setup.

I know car batterys are different from phone batterys but the advanced technology is there for both ! it is just slowly trickled out in harmoney with other consumer giants to keep the economy and there bank balance happy. i.e the commercial technology groups said hdtv would be the highest resolution physically possible on a screen yet they have produced 4k tvs ! they have had the affordable technolgy released in the ipad 3 when they released the first ipad ....its all clever marketing slowly trickled out

here is a link to read about car batterys that will run the car without the need of fuel that last longer than the life of the car and that have been patented by the big oil corporations like texaco TO NOT BE COMMERCIALLY RELEASED

I checked in software updates and it,is telling me there is an update just wondered it it will work or will I have to do it via kies
[Galaxy S II General] PFC Hudson:
I got it running fine after a few issues with not being able to unzip it at first

It's noticeably smoother in general and some live wallpapers run with a better frame rate

Face unlocking works fine too

But God the 3 UK version is full of Bloatware so I may go back to my unbranded GB until they release a 4.0.3 version
[Galaxy S II General] Odia:
I think Samsung are being lazy since this is XX but should be XW for the UK, anyway its a bag of sh1t and should never have been released on Kies, I guess the masses put them under pressure to release "something" and "something" we got.

I've been running this latest 3 mobile ics since 9 this morning. As always did a full wipe and flashed on a full battery.

I must admit I was shocked to fine my network releasing this build before Samsung itself. But I had too upgrade it the urge was to much.

The ROM runs smooth with no lag at all. All functions and options work fine without problems or lag. So I am unsure how others are reporting problems with this 3 rom???! Do they know how to use kies or Odin? If not they should learn I feel. Now I know its the first day of use but the battery is standing up tall with the first 10 hours of use, with 2.5 hours display time and using all goggle options on, Samsung account, software update on, wifi and data on, Facebook weather news auto update every2 hours and 2 email accounts I still have 54% left and I've been using all aspects of the phone as I've been checking out ics fully.

Now I recommend this 3 mobile release to anyone. Its a stable rely good rom.

Any idea whats up with swype
[Galaxy S II General] evilnolo:
Wow! that is a lot of battery time... Im really struggling with LPQ, at most it gives me 10 hours.

Would anyone that has this great performance on their pones (with LPQ mainly), post some tips about what settings to use? Or what programs do they have running or installed.

In my case I have facebook and twitter but they are set to manual sync, apart from that, Whatsapp, and google Talk running. However I also have Juice Defender so their sync times are limited to every 15 minutes or so.

What am I doing wrong? ...

Thanks!
[Galaxy S II General] Dazzaman:
Anyone know if the SMS bug on 3rd party apps is still apparent in Three's release?

Going by the build dates being exactly the same as the XEO version I am a little wary of flashing as it would be waste of time.
[Galaxy S II General] daz_2000:
So are we saying that this 3 release is somewhat better than the LPQ europe release I downloaded?
[Galaxy S II General] timlobley:
daz I do find it faultless. I wouldn't say so if it had faults id say and wait for the UK UN branded. But I'm more than happy with what 3 have released so I'll stay with this. Its has all I need and is smooth. Try it you'll see.

As for message bug just use standard message app or uninstall it using titanium back up and use what ever you want in its place.

I had a problem with Swype in a previous rom. I fixed it by going in to application manager and wiping Swype data and force closing it.

[Galaxy S II General] timlobley:
Turn brightness right down, don't use battery saver apps just simply turn off n on data manually using the extended power menu widget. Turn off google location service, gps, software update. Turn off motion sensor in settings ect. Even turn off all vibration in settings. Anything you don't really need. Thus all makes battery much much better

Yeah I installed over kies this morning. I updated kies itself first. Restarted my pc then connected my phone n installed....kies is unpredictable pile of crap at times.

Im having trouble believing anyone who has been on XDA for at least 6+ months or longer would not know that Juice Defender uses more battery than it saves,it has been well documented on here many times, if people don't believe me check BetterBatteryStats and check your wakelocks and see for yourself, a waste of money is JD.

As for ICS, no real interest asides from when CheckRom ICS is released, the early excitement about ICS was good but now im just not fussed at all actually i highly doubt many (if indeed any) ICS ROM's are running as good and as smooth as CheckRom v6.0;)
[Galaxy S II General] Markbaja:
^^^ Very true, I'm in CheckRom V6 with the Siyah kernel, and by far the best. I'll wait for ICS equivalent before I ever upgrade.

[Galaxy S II General] JJ452:
I've been using this ROM since it came out so here is my impressions:

So far best signal I've got from any modem as well as best throughputs

Very fast. 108k in browsermark & 6k antutu benchmark. No lag that I've found

Battery better than last stock three ROM but not as good as CheckRom V6 with Siyah kernel

Few force closes (one TW Luncher and one browser)

My first attempt....

QUOTE=max621;23910790]I installed 3G ICS XXLPQ firmware yesterday through Odin.

No major problem. Everything works smoothly.

But today I revert back to GB because of 2 issues..

1) over heating - even while charging in a room the phone shows the temperature over 50C regularly and during call it becomes difficult to touch with ear or even hold it for longer than a minute..

2) Market Applications incompatibility.. Different small utilities ( not so popular) stop working or behaving differently.

After that experience I decided to wait for the next upgrade from google... Till that time Long Live GingerBread...[/QUOTE]

My 2nd attempt

But today i tried again with the help of Mobile Odin Pro..

And root remains there.. Even all the apps which used to work on gb also working on ics except one i.e. Hotspot Toogle... If anybody kind enough to guide me an alternate.

As far over heating.... After reading few threads... Dont use ur phone while charging...

Rest everything is fine...

I sent a couple of article emails from Skygrid a while back and now I am constantly reminded that those emails failed to send. The notifications appear in the status bar but if I pull the notification window down, they are not listed.

I can not find a way to kill or erase these messages.

Any thoughts or ideas?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Chief Geek:
Irrelevant, but I opened expecting a link to zombie notifications...

But now that I'm here, the very first thing I do when I have an app thats acting up is to go setting>applications> find the app and clear it's data out. This solves most issues, if this doesnt work then uninstall/reinstall.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StygiAn TrepidAtioN:
I have a few trivial, rather negligible, glitches on my SGN; but out of curiosity I checked on em wid samsung service centers. Presumably callin it a software issue, they told me they would simply reflash the OS and dat shud solve things.

Now, I love my fone too much to actually hand it ovr to a service center. So I'm wondering if i may be able to reflash it myself (something like formating and reinstalling windows), but have no idea how to.

Call me a goof if u will but can some1 tel me if there is an option to reflash existing stock firmware myslf just the way an exclusive samsung service center person wud?

Thanks, u both :)

I see in this thread - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1424997 - that the latest ROM for my indian SGN is DDLB2. Although the latest overall is XXLC1. So this begs 2 questions:

1. What hassles wil i face if i choose to flash a non-india ROM?

2. Given that sammy seeds ICS to Europe much b4 India, if i flash a european ROM, wil i c the ICS notification pop on my unit wen Europe gets ICS for SGN?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
1. You can have any ROM, m using LC1 germany n m in india.

2. Just after flashing check you have correct CSC for that region

type *#272*IMEI#

and set it region, for which ROM was released e.g INU for Indian ROM

then only you will get notification

- Changing CSC, will wipe of data

- Updating over OTA, will lose Root.

Hello,

I'm one of the unlucky who used MeDroidMod and got his mic ****ed with the last update.. following by the blatant disregard for an open source community.

I really like the way IA2SD+ handled things tho, I've looked around but didn't find any other rom using it.

Is there any? Or can experts having used a few scripts like that can enlighten me about other and just as nice scripts to boost the internal memory?

Thanks :)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theshawty:
I don't know internally how iA2SD but it does seem to mount /sd-ext as /data, which basically all AD2SDX scripts do, so amarullz AD2SDX script should do, even though iA2SD is much better :p
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timbit123:
Yeah the idea of ia2sd is coming from a2sdx but on my second version with ia2sd app I changed all my script for a more optimized one and still the same idea but with the idea of choosing whitch app you want internal or external. Anyway, for now, I didn't really try my script on other version and medroidmod will continue to be updated event if the thread is closed, our Google code always contain the last version and will continue to update over ota too.

For your mic try 1.4.3 with full wipe first and backup before starting.

First time that don't have mic issue too.

New kernel, new drivers on that version
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Calibrae:
Thanks timbit123, I'll be sure to check it out. I rolled back to 1.4.2 for now - didn't have much time to full wipe yesterday.

I have to say your script really rocks. Other 2SD scripts usually ****ed up my backups, and restores, and I didn't like the fact I didn't know what was going where. If the 1X was released a few months later, I'd keep on using my N1 for a while thanks to you.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cpm:
Timbit, I really think your ia2sd is a fantastic solution for our aging Nexus Ones.

Is there any chance it can be made available stand alone so that it can be used with any ROM? You could give it its on well deserved thread on XDA Android Dev forum (will it work on any rooted Android phone?)

Anyhow, could make many people happy :)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timbit123:
Yeah as long the rom is compatible with init.d it should work without issue. I will probably make it installable from the ia2sd app. Just need some times to make this out and make tests
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] taodan:
Regarding the mic issue, it still exists in v1.4.3 even though I did full wipe and format system before flashing the ROM. I had to wipe cache and dalvik-cache after the phone rebooted and that solved the mic issue.

please!!!!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timbit123:

[Galaxy S II Accessories] Elemetrix:
So I fancied getting MHL HDMI working and bought the cables I needed which have arrived today however i'm just getting a blank screen.

From my setup I can see that there could be a few issues but I don't know what to do to try and rule them out.

My SGSII is freshly updated with official ICS LP7

I'm using the genuine MHL HDMI adapter powered from a HTC 1A MicroUSB

I don't have a TV or monitor with HDMI so i'm using a HDMI to DVI cable.

This is connected to a 17" DELL Monitor through the DVI.

The monitor is detecting a signal and it is seeing it to be 720x480 @ 60hz however is is completely blank.

The phone says "HDMI Connected" if I connect it during video playback (there are no other notifications)

I've tested the new HDMI > DVI cable from a laptop and that works fine.

Is this software version proven to work?

Is there an issue sending it through a DVI adapter?

Pretty disappointing so far :(
[Galaxy S II Accessories] theguydan:
Possibly an issue with the HDCP protection, as it is going hdmi to DVI, does your screen support HDCP?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Elemetrix:
It appears the screen is not HDCP compatible. Would that really be the issue? I thought HDCP was only used on consoles/bluray players etc to protect against copying commercial videos.

Should easily be able to answer this myself once I get home as my own monitor is compatible :P
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Elemetrix:
Yup that was the issue thanks!

Not impressed with it though :(

The battery gets HAMMERED with it on and I don't know if it's an issue with my monitor since it can't do 1080i but it's stuck at 720x480 which gets the edges cropped and doesn't scale up for videos :(

It happily puts audio out over the 3.5mm socket though which I had heard wouldn't be possible :D
[Galaxy S II Accessories] TehH4rRy:
You're able to use yours without the mains connected? In order to make mine work I have to plug in my travel charger into the MHL adaptor and then into my phone, it both powers the HDMI connection and charges my phone
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Elemetrix:
Nope that's with the power connected (they all need it)

Although unlike some other's on here I didn't have any problems running wifi at the same time so with that all running it was just too much and was draining the battery at a fast rate!

I noticed some people have to put it in airplane mode to get it actually charging..

[HTC EVO 3D] mnomaanw:
Download it , and make sure its name is "PG86IMG.zip" (case sensitive) and put it on the root of your sdcard (dont put in any folder) . Then go to settings in your phone then go to power the uncheck fastboot. Turn off your phone. then hold down volume down button and power button, the phone will boot into bootloader and it will detect the "PG86IMG.zip" file and it will ask you to update or not . Hit volume up button to update, then phone will restart. Now remove the PG86IMG.zip from your sdcard using card reader or any file manager.

Now boot into recovery from bootloader. And install the mean ROM.

Make sure you are S-OFF via revolutionary.
