OTG Cable - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

I've noticed that the OTG cable does not work with our variant of the Galaxy S2. I read that Zedomax had a kernel that enabled OTG function. I was wondering if someone could do the same with the EL29 kernel since it's the latest kernel WITH source released.

You are barking up the wrong tree here. There have been a few threads about USB on the go but so far no solution has been found. I have an adapter but no luck on any rom gb or ics. But I would be more than happy to test any solutions found.

But didn't Zedomax get it working on his kernels on EG30?

Samsung doesn't really have an answer to this either because on their web site there is a page where it says it will work. Called Sammy a few months back and the rep offers to send my phone in for repair. Confusion much?

Mobile ODIN

Looks like Chainfire just released an app that lets us flash firmwares straight from the phone, AND it keeps us rooted throughout the process! Pretty sweet!

Not for us yet though.

Found this in software development. Looks like the att version is already supported and I posted a support request already for our version. Please read as this would be just another way to restore our phones without affecting download counter. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1347899 BTW made by chainfire so you know its good.

Yah Chainfire makes pretty legit stuff.
just send a PM to CF and ask to include our T989
as i recall from the Heimdall developer there was something different about our phone, so CF will need to make the necessary changes for it to work as well
so does Heimdall needs to be updated to support our phone
Coming from E4GT
Hi,
It's been 3 months since last comment, and I installed mobile ODIN on my SGS2 E4GT just a few days ago. Works great, but was wondering if there are any news about whether the TMO SGS2 is supported yet. I switched to TMO and my phone is still "virgin".

Here's my take on this. You want to know where to find out when ICS drops for this device within minutes of it happening or Samsung/T mobile/Telus announcing it? XDA will know within minutes. You aren't going to find a better source than this forum. The guy working in a call center didn't know sh#t compared to this community. I'm willing to bet there are a good amount of software developers from any companies with the info that are active XDA users. When they have the ability to release the info our a new leak is found, we'll know in short time.

Seriously..for the life of me I can't figure out how this question still comes up. We've had leak after leak and in every thread for every rom this is asked dozens of times. I'm not usually one to chime in on things like this, but it's become so ridiculous it's borderline laughable.
OP, this isn't really a dig directly at you, but for everyone that keeps asking. Simply searching or even reading a thread would have given you an answer.

someone special just needs to "mod" the stock native sprint wifi app. its been done on past devices, epic, evo, etc., just don't get why the S3 is lacking when it comes to getting the native wifi app working, neither on ICS or JB.
it's annoying having to rely on third party apps and having to jump through hoops to get one working.
i'd gladly donate funds to make it happen if need be.

WiFi Tether does rely on some features of the kernel to work. Perhaps they (Sprint?) changed he Touchwiz kernel for Jelly Bean that broke WiFi Tether.

I think the GSIII for U.S. is not included in the program's driver list. The International version works though. However, there's a program you can download from the PlayStore called Easy Tether. After downloading, follow the instructions to download the Windows (or whatever your OS is). Transfer the program onto your computer and install. Then connect your phone to your PC and you'll have tethering thru USB.
One other thing. The free (unregistered) version will let you browse the Internet but you cannot access Secure sites. You need to upgrade to paid (registered) version in order to access the Secure sites (emails, etc.). It's only $9.99 (one time purchase).

[Q] Stuck on Froyo Firmware. "No Upgrade Available"

I have an auntie that has a T-Mo Galaxy S2 and when trying to upgrade it says that there is no new upgrade even tho that it is on froyo. Trying to connect it to kies, the program doesn't recognize it. She took it to the T-Mo store and they said that it was a bug in some of the S2's and were unable to do anything. My question now, is it safe to install cwm and flash a jelly bean rom even tho that this bug is present??? Thanks in advance
Sorry for the double post but I'm not sure if it's worth noting, but the front camera is on the right side of the phone as opposed to the left (looking at pictures from the web). Not sure if this is substantial or anything just a quick note.

Try and take some screenshots or something. Because even the first Galaxy S2 (the I9100) was released with Gingerbread, not Froyo, so this is stumping me right now.

Does it look like that? That's the Galaxy S 4G. Its like a slight revision to the OG Galaxy S. It doesn't have official CM Builds iirc though.
If it doesn't look like that, then she doesn't have a Galaxy S device, just some random Samsung phone

But I'll become a helpful S3 forum member as i learn more.

It's wouldn't be in the OP, because HDMI mirroring has to be supported at the kernel level for it to be present at all. It has absolutely nothing to do with the rom.
I think this is why you're not getting any straight answers because you're asking the wrong question.

Devs don't add this to their OPs because it's not a ROM related issue. In fact it's not really an issue at all. The simple fact is that vanilla android, also known as AOSP does not support HDMI-out and with that said there's no need for any OP to state that HDMI-out isn't supported because it's known across the board with AOSP. This also includes the Google Nexus devices since they have no manufacture overlays and are pure vanilla android, which is why I suggested looking into Slimports because I heard they provided HDMI-out support for some Nexus devices but don't hold me to it as I never purchased one so I'm not sure if that logic is true. If so, they might work on othe oem devices running AOSP ROMs but again don't hold me to that. You should look into it though.

It might be known across the board to devs that HDMI mirroring is not supported by AOSP, but the majority of people are ROM users who wouldn't know that. It should be stated in the OP of every AOSP ROM, otherwise their threads are gonna get filled with these types of questions. Thanks for the info though, knowing is half the battle. However, I seem to remember running a few different AOSP ROMs on my GNex that did support HDMI out, not just Slim ROMs. Someone correct me if I'm wrong here.
