I think our device will defenetly get ics. It's new and with good specs. For more, sony released ics for xperia p with same chip, so it makes porting much easier.
[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Messi10:
i sent e-mail to Samsung asking about ics for galaxy ace 2 here is the response :
[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itasoulas:
I always had the feeling that our device will not get ICS. Samsung shows interest for more expensive phones and concentrating at building new phones or successors of older versions without considering providing upgrades to ICS or Jelly Bean. It's like the company forces you to buy a very expensive phone in order to get the ICS experience and that's pretty sad.

in case someone missed that...after doing the rooting procedure that antsm suggested (flash ready-to-root XXLD8 kernel and then install superuser) you can then revert back to your rom's kernel without any problems. So after doing antsm procedure flash your original rom's kernel from the link below by selecting the "K" link. After that, you can install busybox!

[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tatek:
Hi!

Ive tried but no success.

g:\Program Files\Android Samsung\I8160>adb remount

remount failed: Operation not permitted

g:\Program Files\Android Samsung\I8160>adb shell chmod 755 /system/xbin

Unable to chmod /system/xbin: Read-only file system
[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcguolo:
Tatek, I had the same problem with my mini pro. Try from the shell (adb shell) to remount the system partition with

mount -o remount,rw /dev/(your-system-partition-device) /system

You can find your system partition by typing 'mount' in the shell (and searching for the line with /system in it). You should see something like this:

rootfs / rootfs ro,noatime 0 0
tmpfs /dev tmpfs rw,noatime,mode=755 0 0
devpts /dev/pts devpts rw,noatime,mode=600 0 0
proc /proc proc rw,noatime 0 0
sysfs /sys sysfs rw,noatime 0 0
none /acct cgroup rw,relatime,cpuacct 0 0
tmpfs /mnt/asec tmpfs rw,noatime,mode=755,gid=1000 0 0
tmpfs /mnt/obb tmpfs rw,noatime,mode=755,gid=1000 0 0
/dev/stl14 /cache rfs rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,vfat,llw,check=no,gid/uid/rwx,iocharset=utf8 0 0
/dev/stl13 /data rfs rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,vfat,llw,check=no,gid/uid/rwx,iocharset=utf8 0 0
/dev/[B]stl12[/B] [B]/system[/B] rfs ro,noatime,vfat,log_off,check=no,gid/uid/rwx,iocharset=utf8 0 0
none /dev/cpuctl cgroup rw,relatime,cpu 0 0
/dev/block/vold/179:2 /data/sdext2 ext2 rw,noatime,errors=continue 0 0
/dev/block/vold/179:1 /mnt/sdcard vfat rw,dirsync,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime,uid=1000,gid=1015,fmask=0702,dmask=0702,allow_utime=0020,codepage=cp437,iocharset=iso8859-1,shortname=mixed,utf8,errors=remount-ro 0 0

In this case the mount command should be:

mount -o remount,rw /dev/[B]stl12[/B] /system

Remember to remount back to read-only once you have done:

mount -o remount,[B]ro[/B] /dev/(your-system-partition-device) /system

Btw, thanks kyrillos, I am more and more found of this phone: the same gpu of sgs2, the same precessor of s advance, but a smaller screen (which is a plus to me!) with the same resolution of sgs2! :eek:

What the phone answers on adb root command?

Please, look into a /default.prop file. Parameter ro.secure should be a 0.

What about a custom counter and a yellow triangle?

upd: Alright guys, it seems we need to patch an adbd binary. Since it ignores ro.secure flag and always starts with a limited permissions.

Just looked it with IDA and there are some interesting pieces of code.

[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevincaja:
yes you can :)

custom binary counter is only affected by flashing files via Odin(i guess, i might be wrong though)
[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antsm:
First, unzip and flash TAR file via Odin. Then apply via CWM one of the attached ZIP files (SuperSU or Superuser, depends which you prefer).

Unlike many phones, Samsung has merged the kernel and recovery into one image.

So we can't separately flash the recovery image and don't touch the kernel.

It's not just about SGA2, but about the most Androids from Samsung.

Hi straightputt,

Yes, it increases the custom binary counter, since we should use Odin to flash the kernel.

Nope :) It's based on a kernel from Samsung ;)

I assume there should be no any problem. In any case, you can roll back to your stock kernel (JPLD6 is available from http://samfirmware.com/)

A counter will be increased (btw, mine is about 100 at this moment).
[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] straightputt:
