Yes it depends on the source? Is it from xda/sammobile or else where?
[Galaxy S II General] hypergamer1231:
its :mad:samfirmware, got my hopes high though that like the note we might get tw ux with this update as this is big in size (false alarm I guess) waiting for JB
[Galaxy S II General] Xiao Xing:
Please update with the latest news.

This is a next generation community.
[Galaxy S II General] Neosepia:
Getting JB... There are many AOKP 4.1.1 rooms that do already work pretty well :silly: not big deal
[Galaxy S II General] payaxy:
Pretty well is not enough for a lot of people...
[Galaxy S II General] PlutoDelic:
Exactly. I myself am being given every day android devices of coworkers to fix them, or even optimize them. I know loads of methods to super strengthen the device, but i dont wanna deal with my coworkers coming again saying "this is different, how do i do this how do i do that" , i just give them what they used to, and most of the time the "used to" factor is STOCK. Giving opinions of AOKP/AOSP roms being available is just narcissistic, everybody is aware of them, they dont guarantee everyday usability for the typical user, and guess what guys, none of us here are in the "typical user" group, ask yourself why you're here anyway.

I'm sick of useless post forcing me to write this useless post as well, let this thread be for pure information/news purposes only.
[Galaxy S II General] loop4444:
well said mate
[Galaxy S II General] joedalton_tpu:
It's worth to wait. I 'd like to use stock-based, they 're stable, pretty and fully functional. Hope that JB will be smoother :fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy S II General] rajarshi10:
Don't you people think there should've been a leak by now?
[Galaxy S II General] rakeshishere:
Stable - Yes

Fully functional - Yes

Pretty - No (atleast not for me)

I doubt samsung have made even one build yet for I9100. JB builds for SGS3 got leaked in day or two from build date every single time.
[Galaxy S II General] Athhar:
Finally Samsung learned the need for updates.
[Galaxy S II General] :
Pure tw ui is ugly indeed...but I think custom roms based on stock can be really nice....for example sensation rom - really beautiful theming!
[Galaxy S II General] serafin88:
When JB 4.1.1 on Galaxy S2? :D
[Galaxy S II General] juanono:
November
[Galaxy S II General] PlutoDelic:
well my friend, how bout this:

Big Community: HELL YEA

Huge amount of diversity regarding changing the look of your phone without being able to even learn the word flash and rom: F*** YEA

do not let pretty be a factor when u have the ability and the option to change everything, we all agree here that TW failed to impress us, but we can moan all day and samsung is not gonna bother changing anything for as long as it can sell to sheeps (sheep = casual iphone user), and how we know sheeps, they dont like to touch more then 2-3 times to have what they want, want it or not, 95% of android users are sheeps as well.

i've been using Apex since it ever came out, never thought of coming here to tell people how good it is, nor have i ever bothered to shout at TW, i am not asking you or anybody to have the same opinion, BUT just let us not forget why we are here...

this is amazing, seriously, we used WINDOWS for ages and we were not able to switch to an alternate shell/explorer for example (well there are, but they all suck). now, android is giving us this freedom of choice and we are...moaning? this doesnt make any sense (well, it does in HTC :p )
[Galaxy S II General] rakeshishere:
+1

True that.

Your point?

I'll bash touchwiz any day for been ugly. Though it's functional and user friendly ; I hate sight of it
[Galaxy S II General] :
And...Theming in TW is pretty easy! After couple of months of using my first samsung device I started to theme by myself. I've already done 3 simple themes.
[Galaxy S II General] rakeshishere:
Can't imagine if this were iOS. Glad, it's android where almost anything can be customized to suit your needs.
[Galaxy S II General] PlutoDelic:
that i never knew.

@rakeshishere

the point, arent we sick about commenting TW, why mention it at all seriously.
[Galaxy S II General] heavens dragon:
talking abt tw and stock UI, a Stock ICS UI is found in one of SGS2 variant (sprint)

[Galaxy S II General] joker97:
What do you think the battery life would do? Better or worse?
[Galaxy S II General] rakeshishere:
Anyone can install a launcher from play store and record a video. This proves nothing.

I forgot to say something important. Yeah, I remembered - Touchwiz looks ugly. :D

It hasn't even released yet. No one has super powers to test battery life here
[Galaxy S II General] f4s7d3r3k:
never really was a fan of touchwiz. always go with apex when i flash new rom. cant go wrong :)
[Galaxy S II General] bulldozer1021:
Yesterday

Korean Cell Phone off-line Markets started to sell the Note 2

So i guess the jellybean for I9100 will be released soon(just guess :D)
[Galaxy S II General] rakeshishere:
Same here in my place (India) as well. Has no co-relation with S2 though . Probably you can relate that with note 1 getting JB
[Galaxy S II General] Richdog:
Well, there's a notification on my phone for a 140MB software update waiting to be had. Unfortunately I'm not at home so can't download it to see what it is yet, but I'm guessing it's Jelly Bean as I can't imagine an update for ICS coming out at this point! :)
[Galaxy S II General] Krishnadusad:
Sadly it is ICS only :/ .
[Galaxy S II General] Richdog:
Dammit... yeah just saw that 4.0.4 is out ,but I thought that was since June/July. Oh well...
[Galaxy S II General] heavens dragon:
yes but with ICS/JB launchers from Play store comes ICS icons too...but here it looks like TW icons @ bottom
[Galaxy S II General] ephraim:
I installed nova launcher and it still has the TW icon. Some launchers have themed icons some doesn't. Sooo.

maybe we have some great surprises this week unespected jellybean
[Galaxy S II General] rakeshishere:
One expected info is October starts in next few days :rolleyes:

Somehow the initial Poland release of JB on SGS3 isn't so smooth as per reports. Hope they optimize in coming months and this brings positive improvement on S2 as well.
[Galaxy S II General] rajarshi10:
I really don't think so... JB wont come before November & I'm not expecting leaks when SGS3 are getting updates.
[Galaxy S II General] rakeshishere:
Based on this assumption, probably s2 may get a leak when JB gets deployed across all regions on the S3 which would be somewhere around November.
[Galaxy S II General] deniso177:
Hopefully they wont have any bugs that will brick our phones to hell =p
[Galaxy S II General] Norbberth:
A big surprise, it would be to update JB and later that will liberate the code source.
[Galaxy S II General] jackierobinson:
Is this a riddle? Maybe this is a Samsung employee trying to give us a hint.
[Galaxy S II General] rajarshi10:

[Galaxy S II General] pangiotis24:
i don't think so.samsung sooner or later after the release gives the source.they gave the source both on gingerbread and ics.so why not to do this now?
[Galaxy S II General] robertogl:
They have to release the source because of the agreements with Google.

[Galaxy S II General] nutpants:
they don't release the source for the propriety hardware... TV out, fm, etc.. Which can make for a crippled but useable phone

Only a few do.

[Galaxy S II General] atulalvenkar:
They HAVE to release source code for the kernel because linux kernel is licensed under GPL and not due to any agreement with Google.

They don't have to release any other source code or modifications made to android as it's is released under Apache license.

[Galaxy S II General] binayakc:
why aokp jelly bean rom does not recognize contact backup

I have just updated my SGS II jelly bean aokp build 3 but it is not recognizing contact backup made by ics 4.0.3 rooted phone.

Does any one know how to solve this problem.
[Galaxy S II General] antonio1475:

[Galaxy S II General] pratici:

[Galaxy S II General] lewalevi1:
Is there any new info any other than november?
[Galaxy S II General] ephraim:
Nothing yet. But sammobile has been tweeting that we will get JB either on November or December. So, it's just a waiting game now. Maybe we will get leaks sooner than that i hope.
[Galaxy S II General] kicksilver:
Sincerely, I am not caring so much anymore.

CM10 is splendid, even without 100% working project butter, it's still really smooth (JB Mali latest build, for example) and a big step from CM9.

Everything works, or can be tuned down with Siyah, or some other kernels.

Cyanogen team is plain awesome.
[Galaxy S II General] PlanDreaM:
Exactly.It is exceptionally smooth as it is.A Nexus is smoother, but the difference is just "cosmetic" for me.We have minimal bugs and just HDMI out in a bad shape(not very important) just like CM9.I flashed a friend's i9100 with CM9 a few days back and the difference is abysmal.
[Galaxy S II General] ephraim:
I like cm10 but i prefer to use stock. Different people have different preferences, some like AOSP based roms some like sammy roms. We need stock to get sources blah blah to fix most of the problems present in cm10.
[Galaxy S II General] Sergiukz:
hello, i installed the jallybean but i have a problem, i don't find the contacts of my sim card and that program to explore my phone.
[Galaxy S II General] Spiralzz:
Report to the thread from where you downloaded the ROM.
[Galaxy S II General] rakeshishere:
Even November is a rumor :(

Some of things I miss when I'm using cm9 /cm10

- Stock Camera

- Sound Quality

- Stable N/w connection
[Galaxy S II General] kicksilver:
Sincerely, the ONLY thing in CM9/10 that upsets me is the "flash on camera exit" bug.

If they manage to fix that, we don't even need more updates...

Perfectness.

This is hot margarine smooth, good enough for my taste already.
[Galaxy S II General] #illidan:
Well it seems like God listened to our prayers & assigned this man to solve out problems:p

update

my friend works for sammy, i met him yesterday and he said they have jellybean on the i9100 at the office. but unfortunately he doesn't know when exactly is sammy planning on releasing it..

though i guess that since its on the phone already then its in the testing phase. which could only mean we're close to getting jb on our S2s.

besides, it won't take much time now..

[Galaxy S II General] iamnotkurtcobain:

Gesendet von meinem GT-I9100 mit Tapatalk 2
[Galaxy S II General] atulalvenkar:
We don't need the whole leak for getting CM10 up and running. Just a couple of binary files would do i guess mainly hwcomposer. If he is ready to get just those few binaries then get in touch with codeworkx.

If he holds an important position, check with him if he can help CM team legally with some documentation/header files for the exynos platform.
[Galaxy S II General] Vazduh:
Its the kind of post thrown just to keep the discussions alive. I am really skeptical about the "general friend" idea who knows, who does etc. So, if not trolling then provide a leak.
[Galaxy S II General] jankhner:
does this mean that there is no RIL problems anymore?
[Galaxy S II General] kicksilver:
Yes. No memleak also.

Cm10 has become awesome.
[Galaxy S II General] DanDroidian:
Dude, I told you not to tell ANYONE!

Ok, fine, everyone PayPal me $1 and I'll leak it.

:D
[Galaxy S II General] Vihru:
how much you need? ? :p
[Galaxy S II General] Sergiukz:
hey, when will be release a clean version jelly bean?
[Galaxy S II General] mihaixp:
If by clean you mean stable and final, it seems like November is the answer.
[Galaxy S II General] sorcio91:
Sorry for the question but....in the "known issues" page the memleak is present bug .-. the bug list isn't updated?
[Galaxy S II General] ATeam-MrT:
No, unfortunately I believe this bug still persists. At least I had to reenter the pin for 4 times within 48 hours. Modem is lq6, getril tells this is fine and fitting well...

EDIT: forgot to mention that I am on 29-09 CM10 Mali build.

I honestly don't care what you think. i just mentioned this to let those waiting on jb know its close. i don't care if this whole thread is closed. I myself am also not too keen on jb cause i'm still on gb simply cause i like the rom im using..
[Galaxy S II General] Kakuji:
Gingerbread is way way better than Ice Cream Sandwich.

I upgraded from GB to ICS just because I thought it would be better, more fluent in menus and so on, but it's just ****ty.

Samsung MUST release Jelly Bean so we don't get stuck with this crap.
[Galaxy S II General] :
I recently compared MIUI ICS to GB version and I must say the gingerbread one felt much lighter and smoother with almost exactly the same UI.
[Galaxy S II General] Sergiukz:
i have a question, i have jb on mh galaxy and something makes me crazy, when i receive a sms text the screen remain black and i have no notification on my screen when i open it, just in a status bar. when is on vibrate i don't see if i receive a sms text, it's something on settings?, i can change that?
[Galaxy S II General] juanono:
Are you on official samsung jelly bean?
[Galaxy S II General] Sergiukz:
no. it's installed with cyanogenmod
[Galaxy S II General] :
So you have to ask in CM10 thread mate.
[Galaxy S II General] TheSniperFan:
MIUI v4 (ICS) is based on Samsungs roms, meaning that you have android + touchwiz + miui.

MIUI (GB) was based on Cyanogenmod, meaning that you have perfect integration, because you can change what you need to.
[Galaxy S II General] :
Not all of them, for example this one was based on CM9

This entire thread should just buy a Nexus phone. :P
[Galaxy S II General] TheSniperFan:
Of course I don't.

I'd just like to see them not dropping support for their former flagship as soon as the next one is there. There is no good reason, because the hardware is more than just strong enough. I guess that the Galaxy Nexus will get at least one update that the S3 won't receive anymore.
[Galaxy S II General] rakeshishere:
It's kind of tempting for me when I keep seeing S3 at office and elsewhere. :D

Yes, but completely ignoring your previous product altogether and forcing consumer to spend on new phone for a s/w update in less than 1-2yrs is ridiculous

You know what? Samsung doesn't sell nexus where I'm and I have no warranty/service if i buy it from another place. It's hard to get a paid repair done and cost of repair isn't worth it.

That's why I went for SGS2 ;)

[Galaxy S II General] jackierobinson:
Yup. I just bought an iphone 5. Android was fun but I'm tired of my phone taking up so much of my time. It's supposed to save me time. And the only good android phones are the nexus line, but the Galaxy nexus build quality, feel, size and gear sucks.

What sealed the deal for me was seeing my brothers brand new galaxy s3. Sure it may look more powerful on paper, but who cares? It's a giant, ugly and dated looking piece of junk. I'll never be a fan boy, if android make a good phone ill buy that, if nokia or even BB make a good one ill buy that. It's just a phone not a personal statement. The day my mobile phone defines me as a person is the day I shoot myself in the face.
[Galaxy S II General] kicksilver:
Dear comrade,

I'm afraid to say, but "Android" doesn't make any devices.
[Galaxy S II General] jackierobinson:
If a company that manufacture a mobile device running Google Android manages to design and produce a great phone then I will buy it. Can i have my gold star now or do I need to go sit in the corner for 15 minutes?

Oh I forgot to clarify that the device being manufactured is an android device, as some companies produce devices running different software. Such as htcs windows and android devices.

Oh yeah HTC should be all capitals right?
[Galaxy S II General] Vazduh:
Youre so right. But what can we do. These gigant companies induced us not only false needs but managed to associate their products with some of our dear life principles. And this is most annoing because some of us clearly realise the addiction that they have and are ok with this somehow. These are the fanboys. If you (not you in particular) arent yet an apple fanboy, you might just become, as I did with android. But at the end of the day all are just some products that are supposed to fulfill their purpose, otherwise they wouldnt been build in the first place. So, the tasks are done pretty well by al these products, independent of the number of software releses. I for one consider myself a stupid sheep waiting for the wolf to grab from my pocket another hundered euros or dollars, instead of enjoying what i already bought. Our phone does what it does nomatter what software it has. Sry for the long offtopic. I feel somehow better now. Enjoy your phones guys.
[Galaxy S II General] jackierobinson:
Exactly! And that's why I'm exiting the Android express, for now. It seems to be based on a very quick turnover of devices. I think it will change and slowdown but who knows how long that will take.

All we can do is ignore marketing (manipulation) and make your own decisions of what device will fit your needs. It's just a thing after all.

Nicely said .. :beer:
[Galaxy S II General] rakeshishere:
I like it when more options are provided to me when I buy a phone (sd card slot, battery, screen size etc) and iPhone doesn't fit my needs at all in any way.

In Android world with plethora of devices been released every few months it has become tough for manufacturers to provide Android updates to non nexus devices which has become a sad situation. In no way, this justifies as a reason to switch to iPhone because it's same there as well because it's all in hands of Apple and duration for iPhone to ignored is little more than an Android device.
