It's best to wait until CM comes around. This method is highly brickable.

I keep hearing that but I haven't heard who bricked it......
And after the highly brickable process, aren't you safe. I say take a chance. Everyone seems scared. I say go for it. It is only a phone. No guts no glory.

I've heard the port is a bit too dedicated as well. Limiting memory and only allowing nexus software for update. Bring on CM

hmmm lets see cause some people like myself would rather have fun flashing things (alpha or not) We know the risks we take with our phones. Also considering it's in a public place that is not locked for downloads he has it up for a reason. I'm just not providing the link as he did not post one and in respect to sb I won't post one unless he says it's ok to do so. But others who know how to look for things can find it and get it IF they chose to do so.

Tickerman Development

Hey I'm Tickerman and I am an Android Developer for the Galaxy S2 (T-Mobile).
I am wanting to get your input on what i should put in my ROM. Bootanimation, APKs, and stuff like that. I am building multiples ROMs. The first that i will release will be a 4.0.4 STOCK base! I will soon start mixing in some AOSP goodness
Just leave a comment below on what you would like to see...and also some ROM names! (I may just use yours and put your name in the credits).
You should name it JALStudios.

You didn't do anything wrong.. But we were nervous because he tried a few times to make new xda profiles and keep releasing roms.. I think that the mods here just locked his threads and if you search.. You would probably find them.. It would give you insight into what was going on..
