Develop Bugs

CyanogenMod 9 is coming...

Like many of you, I'm sure, I jump around XDA and browse different forums for anything interesting. This particular one... put a smile on my face. Happy to start seeing some public releases on this.

i already have CM9 installed on my old I9000
is fun to play around with, but not ready for prime time, because a lot of the Android Market apps that i use on a daily basis are not compatible yet with ICS
so it's going to be a long painful wait before being able to enjoy ICS fully, even if it becomes available for our T989

i agree. prolly best to just get a new ICS device if you want that. but.. it's still good to see the evolution of software.

eehhhhhh... what does that has to do with getting a new hardware?
the current hardware are perfectly fine, just the programmers needs to get their things together and make sure their software are ICS compatible

There's quite a few devices with cm9 alphas already. We wont be waiting to long to see it on our phone.

Even the g2x has a alpha version of cm9 working since Thanksgiving night so I'm sure this phone will have it soon. Also this is my first Samsung smartphone I am hoping Samsung does a little better than LG when it comes to updates and support for their phone. The g2x was a nightmare thank God I had one of the few g2x's that did not have all the bugs.

I thought it was common knowledge that CM9 was being developed. No?

This thread is a fail. What does Nexus S development have anything to do with the GS2 ICS rom? They are entirely different chipsets.

like allgamer said until apps become more compatible gingerbread is probably better for everyday use right now. I don't really see the big deal and rush in getting ICS.

Thanks. Added to my feed for updates.

It would be cool if/when it becomes possible for our phones to multi-boot or at least a savvy developer creates a VMWare-esque app or any other way for any other way for us to use multiple ROMs simultaneously without the need to backup, wipe, flash, repeat for each different ROM we wanna try. For example, this would be useful for us to try out a ROM that's not daily driver-ready without wiping our daily driver. Just a thought...

New to the S2, Tell me what to do!

I got tired of the Sensation and got a t mobile store to match Best Buys price of $199.99 on the Gs2. So far im loving the phone. Rooted and flashed Juggernaut 4.1. I guess my only disappointment would be the dev support here. I made the mistake of assuming it would be similar to the i9100.
But anyways, any other suggestions of what i should do to my phone? opinions on what is the best rom/kernel? so far i have only tried juggernaut, its smooth as hell, but I always love trying new roms. Any stable miui roms?

well u did the essentials, its possible to run roms from the samsung skyrocket too (remember to read the instructions first)
only thing i can say is to use your phone.

that's awesome. will i find the instruction in the skyrocket forums or around here?

Yes the instructions are on this link. only thing u are doing different is after u flash the rom u flash a conversion file then whatever kernel u want. aosp roms dont work according to the thread only touchwiz based roms
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1360355
heres the miui rom
camera, data, in call audio and a few other things dont work on it
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1392705

thanks. seems like im going to be up for a while flashing roms. any suggestions?

juggernaut and dewizzed run fine for me, i havent really played with the other roms that much myself

Enjoy this powerful piece of tech...

IMO You have done the best you can do with this phone at this point.
Also I must say I made the same mistake thinking that this phone had the same support as the i9100.
Best bet is to stay where you are at and wait for CM9

That's what I plan on doing. The Sensation was rumored to be getting ICS within a month or two... any eta for the gs2?

Samsung already said this phone would also be getting ICS by March or April if memory serves. So if it's CM9 or Sammy, we will get ICS

True, but after how Samsung has been slapping TW over ICS, I am not looking forward to there ICS anytime soon. Hopefully CM9 will produce something for our phone soon.

I thought about switching to another gs2 varient but I like that this phone can use both att and tmobile 3g. Also didn't wanna spend a extra $100 for the g nexus.
It's kinda neat having lots of choices for roms but my only reason for flashing roms were to remove bloat and run a little bit better than stock. With this phone it runs better stock than most phones with their best kernels and roms flashed.

Very true. I LOVED my sensation but this phone is faster stock than the sensation was with any rom.

[Q] thederekjay

First off dam he busy and does great work, my question is why is he still working on a at&t rom when we now have a tmobile. I see he has 3 roms going at the same time, some carzy **** I think he suffers from insomnia or is just that good and quick. He just updated a buggy at&t leaked rom he made and not the tmobile one. Just curious if anyone has a answer didnt want to clutter up dev section.

He created the two separate threads (one for Tmobile leaks and one for att leaks) Because the att leaks are generally further developed, meaning its more stable and the att leak is 4.0.4 vs 4.0.3 for the Tmobile leak. However, the Tmobile leak has functioning wifi calling and the quickpanel toggles, which are a big deal so he created the two separate threads. Both the art and Tmobile leaks have their draws and flaws so that's why he's not ignoring one for the other.

Thank You makes sense.

I did it in short format, I think he is well enough known, to know who I'm referring to, but to appease you I will change it. Also if I did not respect the man I would not donate to him. I think I have given enough praise for his hard work.

at first was buggy and needed patches to fix this or that , that the t mobile release had built in working. Lol to each his own but at least I learned something today.

How?? Cause I just came from a galaxy nexus, were there are SUPER MAN speed kernels available .
I'm not taking about dumbass waist of time speed tests I'm talking about actually using the phone feel for speed . Its noticeable slower and visually side by side against my Gn, internet faster of course . I'm just impatient ; p, as long as we get the right kernel dev this phone it will smoke everything else out there just hope they don't already own the real version of this phone ....

U should try nova its alot faster .

Once they make an AOSP based rom and it removes all the Samsung software I am sure it will be faster, but that is the none thing you will have to sac. All the nifty Samsung stuff that made the phone so wanted

Are you using 4.1 with your GN? I had a GN and it was painfully slow (stuttering, lag, etc.) so I went back to my GS III. I'm planning on getting the S III next week but also thought about getting the GN since it will have 4.1 and Project Butter.

No using liquid 1.5 with gladios, core OC 19% 512 gpu . No lag just speed!!
Don't get me wrong gs3 is great!!! Just saying; )

If you have the t mobile version you're in luck for romanb and another member got the t mobile sgs3 (source is twitter) so maybe an AOKP ics rom or they'll wait it out till jelly bean comes out and either way after that the other variants should get there aokp hopefully with no problem

Yep, the guys over there have already figured out how to get T-Mobile roms working on at&t, so its coming roman already figure out how OC it with his kernel and said he get working for at&t

I think a Rom like gingermod would be amazing on this phone. Aosp accept for the parts where Samsung made it better like the camera apk.

Along with the bogo sale on our phones that should also release ics for our phones? They would probably sell allot more, and we finally get source so we can fix the emmc bug. Win win for everyone

+1 for this, sprint understands its consumers and knows updates just scare and confuse us... its like unlimited data with them, they call it unlimited because if you,like me, live in a market without 4g it would take several months if not years to use 5gigs of data with their current 3g "speeds"... sprint is the best!

If you're waiting for a total bug-free release then you'll be waiting until the end of time. They will release it when they are ready and, steady yourselves, it will probably have a few remaining, minor issues which they will attempt to fix with a patch.
Seriously it makes me chuckle to see people rubbing their palms together waiting for the perfect, bug-free release of any software.

Here's hoping it comes out soon - but based on the release date and usual one month delay we're still about 1-2 weeks away if they use FF18 as the OTA.

Once ICS source is released JB will be pretty easy to port to the et4g especially once JB source is out, they run pretty much the same kernel only major changes were to framework and resources and some lib and bin files, nothing to the extreme like going from GB to ICS
Edit: by JB source I mean rom source from Google not kernel source, just thought I should clarify that after re-reading what I said
