[Q] Difference between I9100's & SGH-I777? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

What is the difference between these two models? And can I uses anything or everything from the I9100 (root, roms, etc.) on the 777? Hope to have one this week to play with and dont know where to start. Why is there not a seperate 777 section?
Thanks everyone!

What are you talking about, there is a section for it. Also not everything from the i9100 will work on AT&T version, since they have completely different kernels and what not. Your best bet to find what's available is at the at&t gs2 section.

[Q] Will any of the Samsung Galaxy s2 roms work on the LTE version

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

[Q] Korean version?

I've had my eye on the Galaxy SII for a while now.
I live in China, where there are several versions for sale, one of which is the Korean version (with antenna).
The Korean version is significantly cheaper than the "normal" version, so I might go for that one.
Should I expect any difference with other versions? I plan to root the device as soon as I get my hands on it.
Thanks.

I don't see how that will help answer my question. The outside just looks normal, but with a tiny extendable antenna on the right corner of the phone.
The model number on it is?
If its one of the following
M250S / M250K / M250L
you are good to go as they are compatible with the international ROMs you might loose the functionality of TV antenna on those ROMs though, also refer to the Korean thread in the General section for more info.

After checking out the Korean thread, I'm not sure what you mean by "compatible with international ROMs".
Do you mean I can just flash any custom ROM I want with full functionality? (except, of course, the TV).

Yes. I'm in Mongolia, and I bought a Korean Galaxy S2. You can essentially flash it so that it thinks it is an international version. The only thing that won't work is the radio/tv tuner. You'll be fine, and you'll save money on it. I say go for it. Luckily, unlike the Galaxy Note, the S2 is a device where Korean and International versions are nearly identical.

Thanks! I'm an absolute noob when it comes to Android, but let's say I root it and install CM on it, it should work like an international version? That's what you mean by "flash it"?

Yes it should, for when you buy it, you can use the international ROMs on it through these instructions.

Just be aware that depending on which model you actually get, some firmwares in the i9100 forums will not work for you, and may in fact brick the device. Do your due diligence with research before flashing any firmwares or kernels.

S-Voice for Galaxy S II

Hi, I have searched for an answer and haven't had any luck. I know that the latest S-Voice App supposedly can't be installed on something other than a device running ICS. Found Here: http://www.xda-developers.com/tag/samsung-galaxy-s-ii/
However, I can't seem to get it to work. It keeps giving me an error: There is a problem parsing the package.
I'm guessing I can't install it because I'm not running ICS. Can anyone confirm this? as it has been mentioned, that it does work. Found Here: http://www.xda-developers.com/android/samsung-s-voice-ripped-for-the-world-to-enjoy/

OP, you realize that as a T-mobile USA user, who owns an SGH-T989, you are actually in the wrong forum for your device, right? (I've also noticed you've posted in the Epic 4G Touch forums as well...)
I've already tried to tell you once that you're posting in the wrong forums. I guess it's up to you to realize what you're doing.
I'm not saying it as a matter of you're not allowed to post here, but if you request ports, mods, firmwares or kernels, and you post in a device forum that ISN'T yours, people will link you to solutions that will NOT work for your phone, and in all likelihood cause you no shortage of headaches if you decide to follow their instructions or install stuff they link you to.
Your device (SGH-T989) has VERY different hardware from the GT-I9100 and the Epic 4G Touch (SPH-D710).
But it's up if you want to continue to post in other device forums.
i used this -http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1662959&page=12
and its working perfectly
and i think it wont work on 2.3.3
upgrade to ics and use go launcher ,, even i was thinking GB was bettter , but after using hydrogenics i dont feel like going back

Well, the reason it won't work for you is because the app only works on ICS, apparently. Not because of your device. (That link is to a post in the HTC Sensation forum)
You're still on Gingerbread.

SGH-I747M from Telus

Ok, so yesterday i bought a SG3 from Telus(Im from New-Brunswick Canada, so its Telus or Bell)... but the thing is, its not a I9300, its a SGH-I747M.... so i was wondering, if anyone knows about the hardware? Is it similar to the i9300? can i use the i9300 roots/recovery/kernels etc? Thanks

Thanks for the reply, this is a nice guide, but i already rooted the phone, thing is, i want to use a custom rom, and there is no forums for the SGH-I747M or whatever, so im wondering if the I9300 roms/kernels work for it
Sorry not sure if this helps you, but there are other S3 forums.
I would think the telus/bell/rogers devices are more similar to the AT&T version, as it is also designated a similar model number SCH-I747.
Link to the other forums here; http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1667
According to www.pdadb.net your i747 is similar to AT&T's S3 http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=specs&id=3602&c=samsung_sgh-i747_galaxy_s_iii_lte
BUT I would recommend you do a lot more research and ask the devs in that section before trying anything. As you will most probably end up messing your phone up in using something incompatible.

I would definitely not use anything meant for the i9300 on your device as it is not hardware compatible, different CPU (quad samsung vs dual qualcomm)

you may not find too many people here that have the Korean version or run it.
HOWEVER, go into the general forum and look into the "Super Everything Thread"
if you check post #3, I believe everything related to your model is listed here on XDA
doesn't look like much to me. I think there is only 1 ROM
have you tried Google to run search?
good luck

Of course I did but i'm not sure that my Note can run that ROM because it's only for Note AT&T.

that's really confusing and im not sure how that happened, but that doesn't mean anything.
I might question...........what modem are you running with success. I would think if you have AT&T modem, than you could run ROM that's compatible.
don't want you to brick though, just in case im an idiot.
it is not suggested to post same question in multiple threads but I would suggest the "Stupid Questions" thread.
not that your question is stupid, but definitely a unique issue from my experience. maybe you could word it slightly different and they may inquire as to which MODEM you are using too. assuming your phone is working ?
they are very knowledgeable and I have visited there a few times myself with probably more stupid question than this.
good luck
