Official update - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

Which is the last android version available for i777? i find only 2.3.4, there's no 2.3.5?

2.3.4 came with the phone and no official updates as of now.
DG has posted a couple leaks that may be or not official.

We can also port I9100 ROMs easily and have 98%+ functionality.

I dont think they will bother with 2.3.5 being that Q1 we will be receiving ICS

Ya, I'm hoping Sammy has moved all developers to ICS and just forget about updating Gingerbread.

The latest ATT specific leak is KJ4 and is 2.3.6.

2.3.6

There is a so-called GB 2.3.6 which for some reason only people here in XDA
are aware of and if you google it all the results come back here to:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1334412
There are no other references to "GB 2.3.6 I777UCKJ4" anywhere on google
except here in XDA all the google searches point right back here.
With any other firmware we can do a google search and find multiple sources.
I find it very strange indeed, perhaps it's just one big secret.

And of course CM 7.1 nightly is rocking 2.3.7

New Atrix, Need help to decide which Rom is the Best!

Hi, i just got my new AT&T Atrix 4G that i bought in amazon and i already unlocked it and rooted it using the method describe in this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=15930466
But now i cant decide which rom is the best. I'd like to try the official update from Motorola's site (cause i kind of like the motoblur thingy) which is a zip file and im use to update roms in other android phones from a zip file, but iv read some disturbing posts about ppl bricking their phones and id really don't want that happening to me
Questions:
1) Is it safe for me to download that update file from the Motorola site to use it and test it?
2) What is the best Stable and Fast rom ATM?
I really love cyanogen, my wife has a Motorola DEXT and i love how it looks and works, but iv also seen these other roms like the alien one and others in the forums, so far iv seen like 6 and i still dont know which one is the best.
Oh and i almost forgot, heres some relevant info about my phone:
System version: 4.1.83.MB860.ATT.en.US
Baseband version: N_01.77.15P
Kernel version: 2.6.32.9-00007-g527fe10
Build number: OLYFR_U4_1.8.3

Oh that is a pretty damn nice post, but still remains one question. The post describe how to switch between different roms and official roms, but it doesn't say anything about switching from the official froyo 2.2.2 to the official Gingerbread 2.3.4
1) Don't install any official Motorola updates I'm not sure if this is a problem anymore but once you install the official 4.5.9.1 (Gingerbread) update from Motorola you can't downgrade without risking bricking your phone. Just skip any updates and install the rom of your choice.
2) If you like Motorola based gingerbread check out Aura or The Dark Side (Based off Aura + themed with some improvements). Alien and Homebase aren't being updated anymore so I wouldn't suggest them. Ninja is being updated soon so you might want to try that once it's updated as it's pretty out of date right now. There's also a lot of other roms out there but they aren't very popular.
If you like CM7 on your wife's phone then defiantly get it. I run it and I love it, so far the stable build doesn't have fingerprint support but the nightlies and past 2 weeklies have, they'll probably release a new stable release soon. Very fast, good battery life, lots of features, stable.
And as far as Kernels use faux123's or Clemsyn's (Based off faux123's with some/improvements). Whether you want overclocked or not is up to you, I use faux123's CM7 Kernel 0.2.2 1.0 Ghz as I don't notice a real world performance difference between 1.0 Ghz, and 1.3/1.45 Ghz and the battery life is better but it's all preference.
Also make sure you have Romracer's latest recovery.
Thank you very much a question tho, why Romracer's? i currently have CWM that got installed once i rooted my phone, and btw where do i find those nightlies?
oh and one more thing, i dont know if you notice but my Build number is OLYFR_U4_1.8.3 and the one in faux123's says [<{ ATT CyanogenMod 7 (ATT, INTL Unified) }>] for cyanogen, should i use that one regardless of my build number?

Rooting your phone does not install cwm.
Also the cyanogen kernel works only for the cyanogen rom

You find a thread a couple of posts down (if that's too difficult I can paste the link for you, we do not condone people getting tired by looking themselves..) about those nightlies.
A little advice (if I may): if your post doesn't include a modification to the phone's operating system / a Rom / a significant fix to something that a lot of people can apply on their phones AND /OR your post includes one or more questions then it should be in the Questions & Answers section of this forum.
Also check the noob guide in General, right at the top. All the good information you need is there.

Read the forums. There are many answers to the questions your asking.

If you want to play it safe or if you don't know much about flashing and don't want to brick your phone then stay stock or close to stock.Also if you want webtop and fingerprint scanner stay close to stock.....for me motoblur is very nice but it slows down the device alot and so I try to do without it.
I would recommend Home base ROM or CM7 beta2 but these might make you lose some features but if you can live without them you're going to like how smooth they are.
CM7 is available with working FP scanner -- install the latest weekly build! I've been on CM since the first beta back in September and I haven't looked back!
XDA doesn't allow "which ROM is best?" threads.

[Q] ICS for GT-I9100 with baseband XXKI4

I am new and have never done any rooting/flashing. I am currently using GTI9100 (bought new and unlocked) in USA. I have a couple of question:
1. I think it should be a Europe version (baseband, XXKI4) . I heard that Europe 9100 has already updated to ICS. SInce I am using it in USA, should my phone update with Europe or USA? I have been checking KIES everyday and still no updates. Anyone knows the projected date of official ICS for my phone?
2. Can someone give me a link of threads for the most current ICS ROM tutorial for my phone if I want to do ICS updates now?
3. For my case, do I root or flash? I am not quite sure of the difference. I just want to use ICS system and have no other needs.

First, this forum doesnt admire lazy people.
There are lots of people that can help you with your problems, but you have to try to do it yourself.
Im not sure if there is an official version of ICS for S 2.
If you want to update it yourself you go to Android development and choose a rom.In the thread you will find what exactly you have to do in order to flash the rom.But before that, you have to flash a CF root kernel for your modem, in order to get a Clockwork mode working, from CWM you can flash your ICS or GB as you wish.
You can find the instructions on how to flash a CF root kernel in here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1331784
Read carefully, everything.
But, to be more specific you arent missing anything by not running ICS.

I'm also using this phone in the US. You will NEVER get a Kies or OTA update, as this phone is not released in the US.

If you don't know the difference between rooting and flashing, then for the love of all that is holy, don't do ANYthing before reading and learning. Start here, here, and here.

No offense, but if you're not sure of anything, your "answer" to his question will only serve to confuse him more.
There IS an official version of ICS.
You do NOT need to root to update to the official Samsung released ICS.
He COULD flash a CF-root kernel, but that isn't what he asked for, and given that he didn't ask to root, but asked specifically for ICS, this doesn't help him.
Read, read, read.....and for the love of god back up your efs!

Yes, this is 100% true. There are ways to go back, which can be found scattered throughout this forum. I have not personally tested any of them.
From my understanding, the ICS .211 changed the signed version number on the bootloader, preventing you from going back.
But it left an official version od ICS for the Razr?
But it left an official version od ICS for the Razr? For in my country (Brazil) does not.

Where are you located?
Is your tab wifi only?
If there's an update available for your model but you can't get it yet via OTA, you should
be able to get it using Kies (you'll have to do a reset on the tab first).
You can also flash it using Odin (again, IF there's an update available for your model. If there is,
you should be able to get the file from the sammobile site).

Like the previous post said, just install a custom ICS rom. They will run better than Samsung's stock ICS anyway. Most of them should be stable. There are also a couple of Jellybean roms available and running just as good as ICS.

I've been having just this discussion with Samsung, and following a long phone call to Mobile Support they have said that they have no plans for the ICS upgrade for Baseband Version P7500XXKL3. Or put another way, despite spending full price of £659 for the 64gig 3G vesion last year, we can get stuffed zs they have our money.
I find that attitude galling as my sons P7510 was updated ages ago......
Contact Mobile Support and make a lot of noise, and then maybe they will sort out whatever problem they have with the modem firmware and we'll get an update.
I would do a custom ROM but I'm worried I'll screw the Tab up and brick it
Well, I think flashing some of the custom rom is the easiest solution for Your question. If You follow the guidelines how to do it, I
think there's no real threat of damaging Your tab. But of course the choice is Your's...

There are Samsung Stock P7500 ICS ROMS for Italy, Baltics, Turkey and India over at samsung-updates.com. I doubt that they would stop there and never carry on for the rest of the countries. These were released in July and August.

Just make sure you flash a ROM for the correct version of tablet and you should be fine. So far as I can tell, basically all of the ROMs are for 75xx tablets so you should be fine.

If it is a UK board, you "should" be able to upgrade. Depends on such a large number of things, mentioned in quite a few threads in this forum. But if it is "standard" UK P7500, then it could be rooting, non-official ROM, and so on...
The sammobile/samfirmware site mostly has the latest and greatest. If you do not see it there, it just is not available yet (mostly, Canada is excluded there, BTW).

p7500XXKL3 GALAXY
HI guys, i too have the following model- P7500XXKL3 and am desperate to upgrade my tab to ICS.
Can anyone tell me where to download the upgrade?

Is this a possibility??

The Boost Mobile version of the Galaxy s2 has an official update to Android 4.1.2 Jellybean, is it possible to modify the tar file from that update package to be compatible with our AT&T SGH-i777 models?? The upgrade tool can be gotten from Samsung's website and then can be installed on the computer, during the install process it extracts the tar file update along with other needed stuff to install to the phone through Download Mode. I really hope this is possible as I would love to have a close-to-stock version of Android 4.1.2 Jellybean for our device, any help/feedback about this would be greatly appreciated...

This is the DEVELOPMENT forum. Not Q&A. Wrong forum. Plus, why would we want to use Boost's version off their S2, when we could grab 4.1.2 from the AOSP (already done) ? That makes no sense whatsoever.

To answer your question is because our device doesn't have an official update for Android 4.1.2 Jellybean, and this would be as close as we could get with some modifications to it, is it me or does it seem like people aren't interested in the question I asked, cause it seems like people are just being negative about it...
