Hi,

I'm an infuse user running ICS, so i'm not new to flashing and the like. My friend would like me to root, and put ICS on her SII.

I've been doing some searching on the threads, and haven't had much luck on figuring out the process for this. The S2 has is on kk6, and so I guess I'll have to odin back to that stock that supplied on that thread, but after that I'm unsure of what to do it to having a CWM recovery, and way to flash it up to ICS. Anyhelp would be create, I'll keep probing the threads to see if I have any luck figuring it out.

So far this is what I've gathered to do to flash the ICS AOKPs rom:

Use Odin:

Odin3 One-click Downloader I-777 UCKH7 Stock + Root No Bootloaders

Flash CWM:

by using Mobile Odin Lite or Mobile Odin Pro on the phone

Once CWM is flashed, flash

Latest CM9/AOKP Kernel

Then flash AOKP with full wipes

Yes this is pretty much it but you don't actually have to use a different kernel, tasks aokp kernel is pretty good if you don't need to customize it.

No don't tell people to go to galaxys2root their stuff is dated and not really supported anymore. Everything that's necessary it's on xda.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] votinh:
Just an add-on note, in Flash CWM section, you must use one of the GB kernel, not ICS ones.

Can you make one in vertical format? If not, can you share the big PNG files in a zip so I can make one? Thanks. Cool animation, by the way.

@bobet96

Love the vertical version. Absolutely gorgeous!

Would you please make it loop. Following a Dalvik cache clear, the screen goes black at the end of the bootanimation while the reboot finishes. Looping the animation at the end would keep the screen from going blank. Thank you.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] alphonse02:
Hi CoopZor

Do refer to this link http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1474987

for more info. Basically rw-r-r means Owner "Read, Write" Group "Read" and Other "Read". You have to tap on R/W before changing the setting.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] leatherbug:
Installed vertical version works and looks great! Thanks!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] bobet96:
To make it loop, edit desc.txt inside the zip file. Originally, the second line looks like this:

p 1 0 part1

Change it to:

p 0 0 part1

Make sure you don't compress the new zip file. To do this, you can extract the files in a folder (retain the structure) and rezip it after editing desc.txt. Tick "storage/uncompressed" or a similar option when rezipping the files into bootanimation.zip.

P.S.

Mine ends with the last frame, not a black one, before the lock screen.

Mine too, except when I clear Dalvik. Then the reboot takes about 3-4 times as long and there is a long blank screen (resembling the SoD). If something is flashing before my eyes, I will know my Note is running! DUH!!!!!!!! :D

Thank you!

kraz

Edit Made the change to the desc.txt and inserted it back in the bootanimation.zip file. Verified the change was there. Rebooted and no loop. Checked the desc.txt file and the file was back to the original.??????? I made the changes all within Root Explorer. I had everything set to R/W.

Any suggestions to get this to work?

Thanks.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wlpywd:
LOVE my new EVO LTE (hardware) -- waiting on a couple software fixes for a few things.

i remember reading a thread where you could map an ICS android's dedicated camera button to voice search on soft-press. You know, the one-push of the button, instead of the holding-it-down which brings up the camera.

I love ICS but i HATE that google removed the dedicated search button!! I used that all the time. For everything...

anyway, i used the search and i simply can not locate that thread anywhere. Any help is appreciated.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] fhnguyen:
This one?:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1671936

Its under Development. Hope this helps.

I agree with the search button comment... I just ended up adding a google search bar to the top of every panel like on the Nexus. I am starting to get used to tapping on it. But in apps, it does get occasionally frustrating-- though my love for the phone outweighs it dramatically :)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wlpywd:
i agree, the phone itself is too awesome to get worked up over the search thing, but still... i miss it bordering on need it.

I'm glad to see someone is working on this, that is awesome, but that wasn't what i was looking for. it was in another phone's boards, it was done, and if i remember correctly, it only worked on ICS that had a dedicated hardware camera button. it wasn't a "remap any button you like hard or soft" thing...

i found this, which helps (and i did the same thing, put one on each homescreen :D ) voice-search button

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.companion.GVButton

--

still, it would be nice to have that button lower-right-side bring up the voice prompt! i had just gotten used to using voice-commands for everything only to have them take that away!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] fhnguyen:
Dang, sorry that wasn't it.

I'm on exactly the same page. I was really enjoying using voice commands with ICS on my 3D with just a tap on the bottom, but now I just have to stretch my hand a tiny bit farther to get to that search bar [totally just realized a little while ago theres a mic on the bar for voice search too :eek: ].

But yes, here's to hoping someone cooks something up!

Did you make the account from the phone or from the computer? I read it has to be from the phone.

ohh ok thanks!

but i ran into a problem. i got the email saying click here to get 23gb for free. i click it and it asks me to sign in. i sign in with the email i used and it says its wrong.

i click forgot password and use the email that i used and the same one dropbox sent me emails saying thanks for registering....dropbox says that the email is not a registered account. wtf

How do you get it? I just looked at my storage in dropbox and I only have 5gb

Edit: nevermind it just updated
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sim-X:
I didn't know either how to get the extra space, they defiantly throw a few hoops in the way but it's not to hard. Check your e-mail for the 25GB bonus e-mail. Click it you have to do 5 out of the 7 things listed. What I did was do a step, go back to the steps page & refresh to make sure it counted the step. Once I completed 5 of the steps it was instant got a tray notification in the corner. I skipped the invite friends step, just installed it on 2 computers was pretty easy.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] five40:
I believe they do that for all new accounts.

If you sign in with an existing account it should just automatically update after a little while.

How can you check your storage space on stop box .....

Having an EVO gets you the most storage possible lol ... 16gb internal ...+ 64gb sd card .... + 25gb of dropbox + 5 gb google drive ...... Lol good times right there

When you go to the website, hit the tab on the left that says "Get Started" (or just click here). Those are the steps people are talking about. Having said that, I had to send them two support emails from the app on my phone before I got the extra space.

I did it during the setup but it never went through. Just upload something to it, got my email instantly after I did that.

I had the same problem getting my bonus space; had and existing account and had completed all 7 steps previous to this promotion too, so wasn't sure how it would get triggered. Uploaded 1 file directly from the phone app (not through camera upload) and the toast message popped almost immediately on my laptop. They should really make this a bit clearer.

Hi. Ive managed to flash my new note with CM9 but im keen 2 learn more.

What is a kernal and how does it differ to the rom?

What is radio and how do i flash different radio. Why would i need 2 do this?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mstasz:
roonet value

Kernet is the "heart" of system, radio is connection to GSM network. (it's simplest exploation i can do :P )

Usualy roms comes with their kernel, radio and system.

If u want to flash CM9 i recomend Paranoid Android, i'm on it naw and it's cool :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] primitive.A:
so what ur saying is a rom is the combination of a kernel and radio? (where the kernel is the operating system and the radio is the phone part;) ) so in all essence one could flash a new kernel and keep your radio the same?

thank you, ive been checking out paranoid and its def gonna b my next step
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vijai2011:
Kernel is a file which links your hardware and software (your rom and apps) and controll how it should work.

Modem is a file used to make connection with the service provider network.So kernel+modem+system files make a rom.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MR.change:
here is how it's all linked in a simplified way:

power on----->bootloader---->kernel and recovery------->OS (Android OS +DATA+Apps+Modem)

think of the bootloader as the motherboard BIOS (in PC terms) ,the kernel is what first boots up after that ,and it's responsible for linking the hardware with the software (the OS and apps) ,kernels are totally independent of the ROM ,but some kernels are not compatible with some ROMs which would result in a boot loop if flashed.

as for the MODEM it's operational from within the OS ,but also completely independent from it ,basically it's the (GSM\WIFI\NFC\...etc) drivers ,you can flash what ever modem on any ROM without issues ,even ICS modems on GB ROMs and vice versa.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] primitive.A:
aaw okay! thank you! i get it now..

one more thing. when ppl talk about flashing a safe kernel, does this mean u can replace only the kernel in ur rom without changing anything else. this sounds like it could cause problems. or perhaps they mean flash a safe GB rom(wich obviously includes the kernel then)

is the procedure for flashing a kernel the same as with the entire rom (via pc odin)?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] primitive.A:
cool!! got it! actually quite simple :) thank you.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MR.change:
careful ,GB Kernels are not compatible with ICS ROMs ,and vice versa

also AOSP kernels (like CM9) are also most likely incompatible with official TW ROMs.

all in all steer clear of ICS ,except CM9 and ROMs based on it's kernels (CM9 ,MIUI,Asylum,Paranoid Android) ,as these are safe.

I suppose the One series based ROMs are more stable with lesser bugs.

But the Ville is based on the latest firmware thus making it the most up to date version.

The major problem that has come up in the new ROMs based on the ville RUU is the hardware acceleration issue.
