Develop Bugs

Wondering if we'll be seeing this ported...

I have a feeling samsungs official ics build for our phone will be very similar to this.

GSM =/= CDMA. Unfortunately.
If we get an ICS leak, then devs would probably be more willing to work on it from there. But Touchwiz ICS looks terrible. I'd make an AOSP theme for it if it looked like that upon release.

Omg, smh, wth,... Y r people still posting about devs porting ics. This is days in a row Aaaahhhhhhh b patient. close thread pls.

That doesn't mean anything. A while back bigrushdog ported the Acer liquid rom, which is a gsm only phone, to the og evo. It can be done.

That was a sick a$$ ROM too with status bar on bottom I ran it a little but never got to be stable enough before I got rid of og. Evo .....I loved it though

I'm just hoping to God its easy to take off touchwiz and be stock, once Samsung releases ics for the e4gt, which I'm expecting sometime around spring or summer.

ICS progress for the samsung SGS2 LTE

Im loving the development work that is going on for our beautiful TMobSGS2, but I'm surprised I havent seen a ICS port yet, especially with the Galaxy Nexus images being released.
Is anyone working on this in secret, or are there any other ICS roms that happen to work on our phone?
I would truly just love a rooted stock ICS rom. thats my dream at the moment. I dont know how to improve on ICS except switches in the notification bar, which is easy enough.

I doubt we will have a good working ICS before atleast a month from now. That is if we even get a stable one.

ICS came out two weeks ago on galaxy nexus...if you really want it then buy a galaxy nexus.

...i know. hence the issue, if it were out for tmob im sure most of would have already eaten it up.

Are there going to be any pure ics roms made for galaxy s2. Currently using a vibrant with pure ics running, love pure ics just want a faster phone. Saw recent video running ics on galaxy s2 with no visible changes nothing like nexus. I suppose it its because of touch wiz. Is there a dev working on pure ics like what is on nexus? Trying to figure which phone to get. Thanks for your comments in advance.

theres gotta be a million people working on a rom for it, the sources are out.
just below your thread is posted about how it's coming officially. If someone doesn't make it stable before the end of q1 [pfffft] at least samsung will have it out
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1402463&page=2

There should be some roms soon. Best you may be able to hope for is a CM based rom. Not pure ICS but pretty close

Where did that ics port thread go?
I know we had one in here but I can't seem to find it? Did it not go well?

Well considering all the idiots in this forum... you tell me if it went well -_-

Cause ignorant @ssholes wont shut up and troll on the stupid thread. So Rev probably requested it to be deleted. Honestly non of us in the community should get a developement anymore cause as a community we all should be one... Not a majority being trolls and wont shut up. And have a small lil percent of grateful people. It doesnt matter what hes been doing in the past.. You find lil things just to fraud a dude and you bash him for trying. Thats when its really dissappointing how immature adultls are still out there. MATURE A LIL AND GET AN IDEA WHAT XDA IS ALL ABOUT

at least he tried. we lack super devs that some other devices have but I hate seeing someone get flamed for trying to do something when people flamming just sit on xda and leach peoples work with no appreciation and troll around just making some of these threads a horrid place.

Could this thread be deleted. How does complaining about others add to the forum.

quit exaggerating; this is only the 23rd thread this week asking that question, and, after all, it is wednesday already.....

I can guarantee you wont see it till about 2-3 weeks after the Galaxy Nexus launches for Sprint. It is rumored that will be on April 15th as we know Sprint is releasing a new phone or 3 on that day and has yet to disclose what they will be. The reason for this being the Nexus will be the only stock ICS phone available through Sprint. Need to get a few weeks of sales in before they release the OTA ICS for all other slotted phones. It's marketing 101

Your E4GT called and said there is a nice iPhone waiting for you... Swap phones and go to tipb.com... then you can upgrade to 5.1 not 4.0.4

I guess you did not get the direction of the thread...LOL Nobody wanted to hear the truth and if they did there are at least 50 threads they could check but thx for that great rightup.... j/k keep up the good work

Um.. wouldn't the fact that bugs exist want you to have it tested MORE, not less? Dang, there's the programmer in me again in thinking you should only release a quality product that is as bug free as possible... especially since I don't want to have to spend the rest of my life "firefighting" (support mode squashing bugs)
:facepalm
While I'm at it, I'll give you the programmer's response:
When it's ready. These things take time, you know.
...No, I don't really care about your deadline, I'm not going to support releasing a product with a lot of known bugs!

Ics official?

Does anyone know if sprint is going.to release an official ics? Rumors I heard was that early June that we would see an official update to ics?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA Premium App

looks like your new so im not gonna flame you, but just do some reading bro, ICS is the most talked about thing in this forum. A little reading will go a long way.
To answer your question, there is no confirmed date but we have had great running leaked builds for months now.

Well I'm new to Samsung devices sorry was an og evo fan myself
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA Premium App

there have been approx 30 leaked revisions of ICS for our device. We should be seeing it officially any time now.

I would root my phone but honestly like I said I'm new to the gs2 if I had to replace this one already cuz I didn't relize that I flashed international version

Edit:Our device is the epic 4g touch on this forum
If you were able to root you HTC the epic is much easier to root there are one click tools to root the epic in the dev forum sfubs has easy to follow instructions and there are gb based roms and if you want a taste of ICS roms as stated I would root just to get rid of bloatware

Came from evo 3d

sup peeps to make a long story short my 3d thought it could walk on water like Jesus did and come to find out it was a fail fml ........so sprint sent me a epic touch. Im knew to the whole Samsung galaxy s thing but I'm pretty sure I will get the hang of it specially with the Odin thing but my question is what's a good stable ROM with no bugs decent battery life and no lag? I wanna start this experience off right!!
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk 2

Calkulin's ROM (Gingerbread version, not ICS) or Blazer ROM. Don't flash ICS ROMs as they have the potential to perma-brick your phone.

Don't listen to this guy he knows nothing. Flash the goodness rom for a great ics experience. Calk gb rom is great, his current ics build is stable but horrible battery life. Long story short flash slim n trim, the goodness, or cm9 just make sure you flash from gb el26 kernel with cwm and you have NO risk of brick at all.

Says the guy with 3 thanks and 62 posts. I worked in a Sprint store as a technician; trust me I know what I'm talking about. Yes, you can circumvent the issues by doing what you said (flashing a Gingerbread kernel), but one misstep and you're screwed. I said nothing wrong; this guy just got his phone and he said he's still trying to get the hang of things, so like I said, I don't recommend flashing an ICS ROM [right away].

Working for sprint doesn't mean you know shiz, people brick only if they don't follow directions

Pretty good. I've owned a LOT of phones since the Evo 4G (which is still one of if not my favorite). The Epic Touch is a solid phone and will chew and spit out anything you throw at it (especially high-end games like GTA 3, Shadowgun, Riptide, etc). The camera is amazing too. You're gonna have a blast with this thing. I'm actually buying an international GS3 and heading to Straight Talk though, so I'm selling my Sprint GNexus soon.

Alright fellas come on now this how you show a new guy what the epic touch family is about lol naw but seriously I understand where you both are coming from and I've seen product around here a lot so I know he wouldn't steer me wrong but I see where yall coming from and thanks

Nothing; when Sprint runs out of supply of a phone, the system offers other phones that are usually of the same tier or better (iPhone is an exception, will never be offered or repaired by Sprint). Some reps will be nice and give you a list of choices, but most of the time they'll tell you what they've chosen for you. It's really up to the manager.

I really wish people would do more research before saying such things. Yes, there is a chance of a brick, but it has been figured out now and some safe ICS options have been developed. Check out the Development thread and look at agat63 and sfhub's offerings at the very least.

Agreed, if people read and follow the instructions, including familiarizing themself with the How not to brick your E4GT thread (link below), then bricking becomes a lesser threat.

Also to the OP, try out Blu Kuban if you're still looking for a good ROM.
