If you can suggest a screen capture program. As I said not rooted at the moment so no default screen capture like on the tiamat hammerhead rom.
This would be interesting to see no doubt.

The info is right here, in this forum, link is below and "This was also tested on a 4G Xoom and is working 100%." This was stated by solarnz, he's the real deal.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1242241
This is legit. My Xoom is due back to me tomorrow from Motorola with the 4G update. The OP is likely an employee of Verizon Wireless, as us employees were part of a test pilot program for upgrading the Xoom with 4G via Motorola.
/sigh Now I wish they would start the upgrade for everyone... Been waiting too long for this day to come. What are the changes in 3.2.2? Anyone know?
How in the world is this development? Closed. Read the stickies.

why are you making multiple threads about the same thing?
Yeah man...just use Odin and go back to stock D118...fairly easy.
@ luvjones305
I would've expected someone who has been here almost a year to know how to search or at least not to spam the forum with reposts.
The "official update" will probably suck anyways. I would just wait until one of the developers has a ROM ready. I'm sure it wont be long
uh huh
first of all yea i signed up a year ago it don't mean im on here 24 hours like i don't have a life an if you cant help don't post nothing on here go cry some were else an i already search through here
It is physically painful to read your posts, I mean come on "yea"? Seriously? And that wouldn't even be such a big deal if you weren't a total prick to everyone, whether they were legitimately trying to help you or not. I am hard pressed to think of anyone who is anywhere near as big a prick as you manage to come across as (assuming you're actually not a total prick when not protected by the anonymity of the "interwebs").

So that means the forums are segregated now? Gotta stay with your own kind and can't look at what's going on with other devices? I'm all over the sgs family, nexus boys, general, android and ot. It's kinda nice seeing dev from all over. Integration is good.
I don't deny that, just trying to avoid the off chance someone flashes a Rom not for their Galaxy S variant and has a "DOH!"moment
Haha hell no man. I've already spent the 2 bucks at radio shack for my jig. Only had to use it once. I mostly just trawl the themes and apps for other sgs's but I love watching people loose their minds when an ota hits like the op here. Lots of craziness in general for yall right now.

Hey Guys,
I just recieved my galaxy s2 4g yesterday. I have already rooted it and installed the recovery (yay). My question is, can I install the rom from the official ICS release from the UK on my US phone? Or will I have to wait till samsung rolls out a US update?
Also if I can use the UK rom, which one should I use?
Thanks!

In general, anything in the news/wherever about ICS labeled "Galaxy S II" has little to do with this phone. Only things Specifically labeled for the SGSII Epic Touch 4G are relevant.
We have different hardware, most importantly radios, so the software is pretty much deadly to our phones.
And yes, if you read around a bit in general section, you'll see a thread started about twice a day with that same question.

I would like everyone who is interested in seeing an official build of Jellybean for the GNex sooner rather than later to ask them what the hold-up is on all of their social media. If we can pressure them nicely using a public forum, then we might see it before 2013. Just a thought.

On one hand it can't hurt, on the other it never seems to help either. I would advise to get on a custom ROM if you can't wait. That said, I have contacted them on all 3 social media sites already.
Edit: If you post on fb, you may get a reply like this..

Or maybe they aren't even testing a "OTA ROM" to even begin with. A company should have better communication to their customers with upcoming updates.
As a Verizon customer and been with them for years, I come to expect this.
and as a Nexus user, I don't care when Verizon releases it because there's plenty of custom ROMs for me.
I did say it would be probably September at the earliest before the Toro gets JB officially.
Well, I just installed Vicious 4.1.1 v1, and I no longer care. Best choice I've made all day Carry on!

The Verizon rep I just spoke to claims they have NOTHING to do with the update, that they come directly from Samsung and VZW doesn't touch it, test it, nothing. I don't believe that.
@adrynalyne can't wait to see what you can do with the Nexus 7.
Also, all I want is the jellybean radios. Sure jellybean would be nice, but the toro is aosp now so no need to really worry about that.

It was a half truth.
VZW doesn't 'touch' it. They test it, but never modify it. They send a change/fix request to Google.

Alright,
I'll yet and reach out one more time.
I don't know wtf happened to my phone in the last 24 hours but I am getting a prompt to switch to global mode about every thirty seconds when I'm not in cell reception range.
This sucks because I live in a no reception area, I'm getting prompted 100 times an hour!
This never happened before yesterday when I flashed CM 10.1
I completely odin back to stock and re provisioned my device.. After flashing back I'm still getting these annoying prompts to enable global mode.
Can someone please tell me how to completely disable global mode?
What I'll never understand is I have been running the K3 ota for over a week and this only started yesterday.
Please help!

You're missing several "somethings". How did you find the answer last time?
maybe i meant to say is there an su.zip or superuser.apk for it...
it's up to you if you want to answer it or keep being anything but helpful. either way, i'll find my answer sooner or later. i know it's a little hard to believe but not everyone eats, sleeps and breathes android dude. the last thing i loaded on my phone was the 4.0.2 OTA update. it's definitely been a while so i really don't remember where i looked.
So I downloaded the factory image and used the flash-all.sh script as instructed by Google. I was running a custom-build 4.2.2 that had some issues, plus I wanted the new radios. Everything worked fine and dandy as expected, but just giving everyone a heads up: upon first boot, when I was setting up my WiFi and inputting my G-Mail credentials, I heard some low-faint music coming from my ear piece. Turning the volume up, I could tell that the phone had auto-dialed that Verizon "activate" number, I guess to refresh what it needed to refresh. It took all of 20-30 seconds and was finished before I was done with the setup. I was worried because I remember people saying not to do this with an LTE device, but it seems to be OK.
This is the first time I can remember or noticed the phone doing this upon returning to a stock state. Don't know if it's new behavior or what.
