Hi Guys,
Terrible newbie question here; I have searched briefly but haven't found an answer.
Is Android 2.3.6 available for the Galaxy S2? I'm still on 2.3.3 and am bored of waiting for OTA updates.
I've seen that there is a 2.3.5 ROM available here on these forums but don't see the point in upgrading to that now then 2.3.6 is out...
Can anyone help me with my question for up-to-dateness?
Thanks.
2.3.4 just released today in some Nordic countries, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1269607. Then 2.3.5, 2.3.6...
So why did you search about 2.3.6? Update to 2.3.4 first!

I was just going by Wikipedia which says the current Android version is 2.3.6....
Is there any indication from Samsung when they'll be pushing out 2.3.4 to the UK devices?
I would love to get a basic installation really without all of the Samsung crap on it. :\

Actually the current Android version is 2.3.7 for NFC capable devices, stop thinking about official 2.3.6, they barely launched official 2.3.4 for northern europe.
I'm in Spain southern Europe and still no 2.3.4. But I have had a few 2.3.3 updates which is fine by me. I love this phone.

Nope, european version doesn't have NFC, only korean and an american version if i'm not mistaking.
Just for future references, Google releases new Android OS versions, it first shows up in Nexus Phones. Then, manufacturers need to get the lastest OS to build their new ROM around it with their own skin/theme. This typically takes couple months and then a new ROM leaked or released. So, typically you will see a new Samsung ROM about 6 months later. You can't download or install Android OS directly. You have to wait for OEM to built it.

Yahhh ??? ... when I read about SGS2 Cyanogenmod 7.1 "stable" version ... many reports about bug here and there!!!
So for me latest official SGS2 ROM is really stable and I'm happy about TouchWiz
But ... when Samsung stops supporting SGS2 I will get a "phone after live" using Cyanogenmod for sure

I advice you, if you want a stock rom, flash XWKJ3 2.3.5, is the best firmware for SGS2..
you can find also the individual CSC..

The CM nightlies are more stable than the 'stable version'.
So i love CM9 but at this point the one thing that bothers me is that we don't have a 1% battery mod. After a little searching, I found this mod for the S2. It looks like it should work for us, but I just want to double check. It says that its "Compatible with: Official CM9 (Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.3/4.0.4), Compatible with: "Stock" Samsung Deodexed ROMs (Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.3/4.0.4) " Any help would be great.

Did not work for PA. I did not try on CM9
Well best of luck!
I`m new to android, I got my Samsung galaxy 3 days ago. So far I've rooted my device and installed ice cream sandwich. I love the experience but I don't like the touch wiz lockscreen. Is there a way I can change my lockscreen to the stock ICS lockscreen ? I tried Halo locker but the wallpaper cannot be changed
You installed ice cream sandwich? Explain

Hopefully you didn't install a ROM for the GT-P7xxx Tab 10 on a 7 inch device. Perhaps asking in the correct forum might get you some help.
Hi, I have an sony xperia mini pro sk17i with gingerbread but I'd like to get android jelly bean on it. I prefer 4.2.2. Or the most new one that my phone can handle but I'd like it to have just a original android, not something like touchwize or sense etc. Just the original android experience like on a nexus device. Phone is never rooted, nothing is unlocked, everything is still stock just like the first day I bought it. Can someone point me out a good tutorial or help me to achieve the wished result?
Thank you!
So u want a good tut? U heard of google.com or ever bothered to see our mdpi forums or maybe search was invisible when u came here
Cheers,
AJ

Please use the search and you'll find a tutorial
Or check out my guide on how to install a custom rom/kernel too

Of course I searched first or else I wouldn't ask a question for help
I can only find things like ice cream sandwich to jelly bean, ice cream sandwich to gingerbread but nothing from gingerbread to jelly bean. And I'm kinda of new to rooting and all these stuff. So please if you can help, please do.

Unlock your bootloader and flash the kernel for the jelly bean rom. Then flash the rom
Seriously, please read my bootloader unlocking guide and my guide on how to flash a custom kernel/rom, then you should know what to do
