i have one or two questions about custom roms and kernels, i was planning on making my own untill i found out how useful some of the app on the Stock S2 can be.
First of all i was wonder is there is a way to get polaris office on a custom rom, like does come in the rom its self or is it part of the kernel. Cause i do like that program very useful.
Second i am wondering about wifi-sharing the thing eats up battery fast, problem is i aint using my phone as a mobile hotspot and it just randomly starts up, so if i were to make a new rom would i be able to get rid of wifi sharing completely,
All other are welcome to ask any other question like these regarding the S2.
Polaris office is a part of the ROM not the Kernel. its a
APP!
wifi-sharing can be turned OFF!
All others are welcome to do this is in the Q&A section.

I was about to get the SGS2 LTE and plan to flash it soon after getting it.. however I noticed all roms are currently made for the original 4g model.
I am not an expert but I know what I am doing for the most part (being an HD2 owner for 2 years). there are two issues I see... sorry, in advance, for the lingo i use
1) the LTE has 4 soft buttons in the front (like the infuse).. whereas the original has a hard button in the front. which means "Base rom" would be different, no?
2) I don't this is a big problem but ill ask any ways... All current roms are made for 4G so will that mean that the phone will only work on 4g, assuming the button problem is resolved?
If there is another thread that will answer this please let me know and ill remove this thread. I just could find anything. I clicked search thread, but only threads regarding random discussion about the lte version pop up.
Lol the LTE model hasn't been released yet... Sooooo yeah.

Rogers Samsung Galaxy S 2 lte
The Snapdragon processor will mean a delay on any custom ROM cooking until it is released. I pre ordered but feel confident it will get a lot of the ROM' s and kernels from G S 2 HSPA+ i9000.
What is the device name for the LTE? ~model. Number

I only ask because I was about to pre-order the phone as it will be coming out soon in canada for the rogers network and i need my custom roms
Different hardware so it wouldn't work unless you looking to make a nice paperweight.
thanks for the info ... even though it made me cry a bit

Here you go, http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1399 That's the thread for the AT&T Skyrocket but the Rogers version is identical.
thanks verry much appreciated !!!!!
Here's my dilema... My phone (Showcase) is having issues with the new CM7 and I wanted to see if it was possible to simply get a friend's un-rooted phone and do a direct clone of their Showcase to mine so that I have a working phone again. I'm getting super frustrated.
What would be awesome is a .tar for an ACS Showcase, but we Alaskan's are few and to find ones that mess with their phones is more difficult. So my hope is to just find someone's working phone and use theirs as a template to fix mine.

Found using google btw, by using the site: search feature ( site:forum.xda-developers.com sgh t859 rom).
That is just one example. You should note that one success doesn't mean every ROM is compatible so you're right to tread carefully. So look for specific ones and ask in those respective threads or look to message other people with your model to get their input directly rather than hoping they see your thread.

Hey guys. I came from the Sidekick 4G and helped ROM development there. However, it was time for me to go. In lieu of this, I picked up the SGS2. Like any other user here on XDA, I want pure freedom and control of my device. However, I'm a bit confused. The picture for this category has a weird middle button, which is lacking on mine. Mine is the T-Mobile variant and I just used Kies to update to 4.0.3 official. Can someone please guide me in the right direction to root 4.0.3 ICS Official on T-Mobile? Thank-you in advance.
P.S : I tried searching, but all of the threads confused the hell out of me, and I just want a clear justified answer.
EDIT : Found a forum with the name T-Mobile Galaxy S II, thank-you for your time. Mods, please close/delete.
Just use the rooting guide by "Rachmat".Install a kernel like Siyah before/in case your going to use 4.0.4 stock.
