So here is the reason for the releases as per some friendly people....

They are finishing up the international 4.1.1 and have moved the majority of testers/devs to the US 4.1.1 but first they need to fix some issue in the 4.0.4 code to so they don't carry over to the 4.1.1 and become harder to find. So we should see 4-6 builds of 4.0.4 before switching the code base to 4.1.1.....

As I said a month or so ago, 4.1 was already being tested on the international SGS2 and will be coming to the states versions as well. As per Google requirements though Sammy will need to lock down the 4.1. builds going forward so we may not ever see a leak for it other than the RDF page.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] VeNuMuS:
Thanks Sextape.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garwynn:
That's good news... but wonder why Google is telling them they have to lock down the builds? Not sure your resources are going to know but it seems a step in the opposite direction. With a smaller test base you're more likely to have bugs missed. (That's one of the reasons many companies have wide open betas of common products - the others are for marketing purposes and customer feedback.)

Either way expect we'll get to be current and once we're at JB that may be it unless a major problem is found. Not bad though for support, especially given my previous devices!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Toleraen:
What's the issue with the (i assume) capacitive buttons? Just curious, having issues on mine and wondering if its the same....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] reddragon72:
The leak issue is due to the high sales volume of Samsung phones. The idea of leaked builds only getting to the "geek" side of the community is good, but they are seeing spill over to sprint/verizon/att/tmobile official forums and that is causing many more people to put these unofficial builds on their phones then come crying to the carrier that it's broke. So with that Google, catching some flack, had decided that locking down pre-releases was a great idea. So they asked, as well as the carriers, to help stop these leaks from occurring causing angry and upset customers who have no clue what they are getting into.

A guy told me this once.... philosophy: The world works because things are broken. If you fix everything then there wont be much to do, but breaking to much can cause a burden on those that have to fix it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mattix724:
The way I see it is if you want to test an unofficial build... get a job with the company.

I'm pretty sure Samsung can afford to have at least 50 if not more testers. They've had so many bricks due to the 4.0 leaks that they have good reason to lock down all future builds.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garwynn:
I was afraid of that. I'm not a numbers guy but having an entire lineup of products susceptible to a bug that can severely impact (at least) or brick (at worst) a device will do that - especially when it was Sammy. Would also explain why Mr. Sumrall never got back to us after dropping that bombshell that helped confirm the eMMC bug and the cause. I'm not saying it's the only cause but you have to suspect that it is a factor.

At least with JB we're not talking a major shift and it probably won't be like the ICS updates. We have updated driver code and other ICS components that can be merged with AOSP and make a stable JB build while ensuring people don't brick (now that we know.) So hopefully they'll finish where they left off, polish off the new kernel and features and eventually go to EOS after giving us a rock solid build.

---------- Post added at 10:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:49 PM ----------

Yet a little more communication between Korea and US mobile divisions probably could have avoided that as well.

And I like my job - and there are good reasons to test in advance of a rollout. IT guys that use these phones for work (like me) may want to put it through the wringer before suggesting it to others.

And I feel your pain with the Zio.... ouch.

I firmly believe that sextape is Jamie Lee Curtis. Prove otherwise,I dare you.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mattix724:
Your familiar with the Zio? Lol!

I know there are some people that would like to test unofficial builds that have some technical know how that should be able to be a part of testing builds especially if it helps with the bugs but the majority of the population that has no clue what they are getting themselves into just need to leave it alone and run the official firmware when it has been released.

I know you for one should be able to help with testing because you've shown with the ICS leaks what testing is all about.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wcr84:
This reminds me of late last week when Sprint said we would get a bug fix push on the 16th. I wonder if that will hold true. I haven't seen any mention of it anywhere.

Hey agat the repack kernel FI25 disable installation of apps on SD Card. Lost Where's My Perry, Where's My Water and The Game of Life the 3 app need install on SD card as default. Can't reinstall them. :(
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Raistlin1:
There is a lot of talk of this happening in his repack threads. He has not been able to duplicate this problem, did you flash via odin or mobile odin? If I remember correctly, agat has been using mobile odin to flash everything and not had these problems. Check out the FI03 and earlier repack threads and you will see many talking about this.

I don't really move apps to sd card but I have been staying on stock kernels because of this and because I was having extremely high kernel use on his kernels.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RayTrue04:
I use mobile Odin for the repack kernel and have experienced the issue every time I flash it. If you flash back to the stock kernel everything comes back without having to reinstall. So now I just flash the repack whenever I need to flash a zip and then flash back to the stock kernel through it right after. Idk if that's weird but works for me!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Raistlin1:
You know I never thought about doing that, pretty good way to flash a zip if you need to, especially with mobile odin.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RayTrue04:
Yeah it beats having missing apps and is so simple to do. Flash the Repack tar file through mobile Odin, flash whatever zip you need, than flash the stock FI03 kernel zip and reboot :p

Got my hotspot back that way!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
This apps2sd problem is driving me nutz.

I don't know what to say and I don't know what can I do.

Just flashed FI25 repack.

Installed Where's my water and wheres my perry. No problems what so ever.

Was running my 0.5.4 and flashed FI25 with mobile odin.

Attached are screenies for apps and my about phone to confirm I'm on FI25.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Omar04:
Sorry man this is so weird. I flashed FI25 Root No data OC then boot wait for setup to finish then power off then flashed tFI25 Repack 0.2.2 no dice but any ways not a big issue to me. :o
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
I'm just trying to understand why I don't have that problem.

What is the difference. Pretty much I never had the problem.

I understand that sammy doesn't make 2 phones same but not to this extent.

The only difference I can think of at the moment is I'm not running FI25 rom. But that should not have this effect.

This is so frustrating. I can't fix the problem if I don't have it.

I don't know where to look and what to look for.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gtalkalot24:
Man its quite in here. Hello hello hello. Wow an echo!!

I know I may stand alone on this one but I do hope that they continue working on the ics build in my personal opinion it has such a long way to go still.

It's kind of crazy y friend just picked up the kg motion on metro pcs that's a 150 dollar midrange phone with specs similar to our phone that runs ics as smooth as butter. No lag what's so ever. Same thing if you try cm9b1 smooth as butter. Such a night and day difference between the touch wizard based roms.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Omar04:
That's what bother me more ICS in all devices I tried it. Buttery smooth also in other S2 versions but in E4GT we all know how it is :banghead:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] locoboi187:
T-Mobile version is bad from when I tested its ICS

I just noticed FJ-01 for Virgin Mobile, but no updates to Boost or sprint model yet. Just a heads up, It's still ICS according to the RDF.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cas8180:
Just think if it tales this many iterations to get ics right what can we expect for jb? Count on end of 2013 ....and what's the likely hood we will all still have this phone by then?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BluesRulez:
I would still have it. Lol it would be just a ghost town in here by then.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Omar04:
Indeed! :banghead:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daniel4653:
Yeah I'm happy there is still development for this phone. Mainly JB

iCS is dying slowly. Don't get me wrong the ROMs out there are awesome.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] leaderbuilder:
Well if they could get enough right to at least release code, then the awesome devs here could build it right.

Me too unless we jump ship to Verizon. It may be worth the etf since my wife's contract is up in April. Sprint blows in Louisville. I was very fortunate in Austin to have good service most of the time.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] M1Quinn:
could I bother someone to do an rdf check for the US Cellular version of the gs2 (sch-r760)? we are still waiting for ICS and they are not forthcoming with any helpful info. Are we only gs2 still on gingerbread?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garwynn:
Been looking but can't find the RDFs for US Cellular. Will advise if I find.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] M1Quinn:
Thanks for looking.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garwynn:
Funny about them - the register device.uscellular.com and profile.uscellular.com in DNS but any attempt to contact them bounces.

Trying other combinations that I can think of, such as uaprof, rdf or xml - still no dice :(
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] M1Quinn:
huh...well I really appreciate you taking some time to look. I'm hoping there will be an ics release for the US Cellular gs2 soon, now that Sprint seems to have a stable build.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
they are still in gingerbread I dont think they will be receiving ICS anytime soon according to some documentation.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Febby:
Its not like they are missing out on anything stable... :p
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] M1Quinn:

I'm gonna be here until May 2014 unless I take an early upgrade.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cas8180:
Alright guys. Heres a little project I have been working on that I think will all save us some time. If you remember the RDF finder I wrote in the past. It was pretty quick and dirty and you needed to run it on Windows and have the snippet compiler installed and was C# based. It worked but probably wasnt the most ideal solution. So I figured want not write a better android version. So thats what I did and hear it is. Febby if you like it and want to link it to the OP thats cool. Feel free to PM any bugs you find guys. And before anybody asks why not use the /latest URL format to grab the latest RDF. Well I am sure you all know there are many occasions when /latest is NOT always accurate. So this tool will basically attempt a brute force scan for any range you specify to hunt for RDF's

Enjoy!

P.S I also plan on making a OP for this app under the apps section but I am too lazy right now.

Updated 10/5/2012

-Bug fix around upper casing range codes. Now happens on Find press

-Added Quit menu item which can now be selected via the menu button to exit the app gracefully.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] leaderbuilder:
Looks cool. Didn't work for me. Could not edit the start and end range. Hit search but it returned no results.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mad5870:
Did you Try just typing in the start and end. Mine didn't erase until i started typing something in.

I'm sure you tried it but never know
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] leaderbuilder:
Ahh, got it.

I did have to type over/start typing for the build numbers to 'enter'. I also had to tab/click forward from the 'Start Range' to the 'End Range' and then put cursor in to the 'Output' window for the search to 'take'.

But it did worked great!

Thanks cas8180! Nice tool.

Hey cas8180 I test your tool and set from EL29 to FJ31 but it start on EL12 and stops at EL29.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cas8180:
Didn't even think to look. And this was my first android app. I am normally a Microsoft platform dev. So I thought I would do something relatively simple to get my feet wet. And I know we are all rdf aholics in here.

I appreciate the feedback guys I think there might be one or two minor bugs based on feedback I will do some more testing tomorrow when I get to work and see of I can't smooth things out. In the meantime if you guys feel like testing and reporting any additional issues feel free to share or pm me.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mad5870:
Yeah i noticed the same problem that omar stated.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cas8180:
Actually guys it is working as designed the problem was there was a large gap of non existent rdfs and if you have a slow connection or bad signal it could take even longer for the application to run. But I just put in the same range omar provided let it just run and this is what I got.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Warboy:
I can read that much, but is that it? Is it just a version bump of FI27?
