Develop Bugs

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

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

His idea didn't work. I edited the kernel for him and flashed it and it didn't want to flash.

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.

First time rooting/flashing/rom recommendations?

Hi Guys,
Soo.. I know this question might of come up like 100's of times BUT, I couldn't find anything for my needs . My question was, as a guy who is starting out on rooting/flashing/roms/themes etc, what do you recommend I use? Which rom and which themes?? (Want a rom with good features, and I am on JB btw)
Would appreciate your opinions...
Thanks!

I suggest you wait until AOKP ROM updates to JB. I had AOKP and it is beyond awesome
I am just rocking stock everything for now though

When will that be updated? Any estimates?

The CM10 Kang is also a good option. Lots of added features and more coming each day.

+1 CM10 is very good for starters since all you need to do to change most of the customizable things is change a setting! In other words no flashing themes necessary and since a lot of people use it, there is plenty of support and developers.

Goo.Im down

I just tried getting the new nightlies for jb on threads in dev section about a minute ago and they were all down, all of them. Aokp and cm10 look really nice and strentghful I think so and am switch a lot between ROMs now a days and loving it. My fav touchwiz is Jedi and I don't really know why, it must be a mysterious Jedi skill, and cm ROM will conclude this post with guru. Try them all guys. These ROMs are real blessings and you won't know until you lift it up. By the way thanx.

Goo has been having issues. Hope they get things in order

If it costs money let me know. Although I don't believe that money is the answer. It's easier I hope.

The web has some source of hardware issue.

I think I read somewhere else that the problem was a database that got killed by a glitched upgrade.

Best ROM?

Just came from a Galaxy Nexus and wanted to know what is the best stable ROM on this? I know ..try them a out and they're different ... yes but coming from a developers phone, I could argue that all day. There's always one that stands out though...

It all comes down to preference as I'm positive you know already. Each rom I've tried has been daily driver status, it all just depends on what you're looking for feature wise. We have some great devs over here so I'm sure you won't be disappointed

i was using aokp for a while... its just too buggy and unstable for me.. not unbearable, just little annoying things that started to piss me off after a while. plus the op thinks he is a god and is super condescending to a lot of posters.
so no more aokp and back to TW based roms. ill wait until a stable version is released.
that being said, dazedandconfused always has premium stuff, and phantomhackor does too. hopefully Ecooce can release one soon!

Wow that's good to know! I can't believe that there's no LTE toggle yet though.

Just inherited an sph-d710 just cuz...

My question is... which rom is best on this device? Maybe asking for too much but anything close to s3 and note 2 like rom would be sweet. I have an i777 on shostock3 and that rom is beast.
Sent from my SGH-I777 using Tapatalk 2

You inherited a damn good phone lol. The recently released jellybean leaks like FK23, FL04, and FL16 offer a close experience to that of the Galaxy S3. The home screen and notification bars are nearly the same and many features are carried over to our device as well. You have some interesting motion features to try out as well.

Honestly you can't go wrong with any. All the devs put a lot of hard work into their roms, and it shows. My personal favorite for ics is blu Kuban. As of right now I am running fk23, and have been since it's release.

Before this goes downhill...
Congrats on getting this phone:thumbup:
Now as far as best ROMs. There is no such thing as a "best" ROM. Every user has its own preference based on whether he is a power user or a casual user, whether he is into themed ROMs or ROMs with stock feel, etc.
So you are just going to have to look in dev forums, read user posts, read OPs and then decide.
I can say so and so ROM is better but thats for my taste. You are not me. And some devs may not feel good that I left out their ROM.
So take this advise and happy flashing!
