Put your phone on top of an ice cream sandwich.
Boom ice cream sandwich upgrade.
This thread will most likely get closed by a certain mod who will accompany the closing with some kind of angry or vindictive comment, so you will not likely get your question answered.
That being said, if you look around here (and on the development thread) you will find lots of other threads about the best ways to do exactly what you are asking. Good luck!
Flash to it with an ics rom in a .zip file using one of recoveries.

The mod referred to would simply be carrying out the directive of this forum that members are to first search and read to find answers for themselves. This is not the help desk and no one in here is paid to help. The info you seek is already in here if you take YOUR time to find it.
ICS is still a work in progress (not official for the i777), so don't be in a hurry to flash it if you don't know what you're doing.
Oh trust me, im not against thread closing. Its the snide comments thrown in that no one can respond to that make me roll my eyes.
On another note, i should stop bumping this thread

Who the f*ck are you? If you dont like the threads being closed then you can kindly walk the f*ck right back out or go back to lurking. Of course nobody can respond, the thread is close. Would you rather I just close a thread and not say anything at all with no reason as to why the thread was closed?
Didnt think so...

You realize with a response like that, I had to say it. At any rate, as I stated before, I think its great that someone takes the time to close threads, and why they are closed. Your attitude is a little harsh (as demonstrated by the above response) and your personal insults are pretty out of place as well. But hey, this is the internet after all, isnt it?
You can reply and lock now, this has been bumped ttt quite enough
Very rude, you shouldn't even be a moderator.Now go ahead and do whatever you want and be f****in happy in your little fish tank..lol

Well, to be quite honest with you, I mod several forums, so when I log on XDA I have numerous threads/posts I have to deal with. Im not complaining, as it comes with the job and I like it, but I cant please EVERYONE in every forum. A lot of users have voiced out that they dont like it when a Mod closes a thread with little or no response. I try to at least give a (vague) reason as to why the thread was closed so that it makes some sense. I could just close a thread and walk away, but I dont think thats very proactive or professional. May the snide or curt comments arent professional either, but its the lesser of the two IMO.
In fact, Ive been wanting to update my phone to the latest AOKP all day, but Ive been too busy in the Mod forum and with all my other forums dealing with posts/threads and for whatever reason, a ton of April Fools threads. Work comes first before play, so Im still dealing with those before I can flash.

Ok.
You know, XDA isn't the only place on the internet where you can find information and ask questions about android and ics and etc. If you're sick of the snide, sarcastic, smart a** remarks around here, just ask your question elsewhere. There are plenty of other great places to do that. The information around here is excellent, and I find many useful things around here. But that's the thing. FIND. If I ever have to ASK anything, I ask somewhere else, because I've learned this kind of stuff happens here. And you know, if that's how this forum is going to be then that's fine, Red and everybody else can deal with things how however they want, and if we don't like it, there's no rule that says this is the only forum you can ask your android question on.

I do look and participate in the Q&A and have asked in there a while ago but no help so i figured is reach out to others that may have better answers.
And i have Swift Key X and also have tried other keyboards as well but nothing compares to the original HTC keyboard to me. I always end up switching back.

You're not a dev. You have not made anything. You're requesting for something. Is this REALLY this goddamn difficult? Devs DO look at the Q&A section, you just don't think they do. We have this thing called forum structure. Violating the structure AND then rubbing it in by saying it's in the wrong section but you don't care is even worse.

Oh? It's the highest priority for you? Well, i guess all the devs and everyone who browses the dev forums should just drop what they're doing and make it happen, just for you.
It frankly doesn't matter whether or not you THINK this is a great place for it, the point is this is not the place for it.
All you whiners can keep going "oh no, the forum is being mean to me, this is ridiculous" or you can accept the fact that we have simple forum structure, and your personal thoughts on visibilty don't change the forum strcuture.
It pisses me off that I have to explain this to members who've been here for a long enough amount of time, and it pisses me off even more that everytime I have to give you guys a reality check, I end up bumping the thread in the dev section.
Now that it's here at Q&A, I'll leave it be. But some of us were here before the requesters, before the whiners, before the self-entitled; it was a time when we did this for the sheer geeky fun of it. Nowadays, people seem to expect XDA to be some sort of mod-churning machine, and the community is going to **** because of that.
Done with this thread, not going to post in here again, but please, by all means, continue to explain to us how you're being the oppressed class of XDA and how the rest of the members are being "rude" to you. THAT'S what will fall on deaf ears, not requests.

Alright smartass, read the rules. But since it looks like you can't read, watch the video in the first reply.
First, This is the wrong section, it's a question which goes to Q&A.
Secondly, SEARCH! You're not the first re**** who posted this, there are actually other people like you out there!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php?searchid=101123576
Well... Let me ask one question... What answers did you expect
A list of 84 ROMs you could possibly flash onto your SGS2?
You ask 30 different people the question which ROM they like best, you get at least 20 different answers.
So, just read through all the [ROM] posts in this forum and find the one that is best for you. Everybody likes different aspects of a ROM.
If you have a question to a specific one, well... It's the same thing again. Search the respective thread and if you don't find anything useful, post it (But NOT as a whole new thread, please...)
cheers Barratas, good answer
@bruflut is it? F u
Bwhahah.
I don't give a **** of he has 500 posts. Reading is reading and common sense, which he lacks, should be used.
Ask yourself, does my question help development of the SGSII. No.
So one with a little common sense would not have posted. But since you lack that ability, you get belittled.

There's just one thing striking me again... IF we had a periodically updated list of all maintained Custom ROMs, the development forum would be a LOT easier to overlook!
It's kinda hard for someone who starts reading the development forum NOW after months of posts!
Maybe if we could find a mod that is kind enough to make a sticky Custom ROM list... That would prevent newer users from starting threads like this one and our more experienced users from ripping their hair out because they feel horrible about those threads...

Did you use Foxhound for i900 by mistake?
Seriously...
Open app drawer then go to settings and remove the "dots" which are to show running apps.
Also that is TW 4.5 if you search for it you will see the features/bugs etc for it.

You seem annoyed by my question. I apologize for owning my Android for all of 3 weeks and not being an expert on a rom that I just installed last night and not knowing every bug for TW 4.5. I'm sure every Android user that has used TW, including yourself, has made sure to read the bug lists fully before they interact each specific version, and I apologize for not doing that.
My complete lack of knowledge on all things Android is utterly embarrassing as I'm quite sure you had everything down pat after 3 weeks. It makes me feel bad that you had to waste all of 2 minutes of your time to type that suggestion, that actually ended up working. I'm very sorry sir, but thank you for the solution. I will try to improve my Android excellence over the coming years so you will never have to "Seriously..." answer a question on these boards again.

actually. it is an expectation that you read The entire OP before flashing anything or asking questions about it. Because most of the time your answer is already in the OP. and to start a new thread about something that is already answered elsewhere or right in front of your face is kind of ridiculous and creates clutter. If you don't want to read a little before flashing something you shouldn't flash anything at all. This is just some advice so that you can have a good experience around here on XDA.
Cool things to do.

I did read everything on the page of the rom that I flashed and saw absolutely nothing on the subject of red dots appearing over app icons. I also used TW with my stock rom for a couple of days and the dots never appeared either. I also did a forum search for "red dots" and "red dots over icons" as well as numerous google searches and nothing came up.
Honestly if answers to everything on this forum are supposed to be so simple to find (they aren't) and right in your face (they aren't)...then what is the point of this Q&A forum when the veteran members are just going to act annoyed and you're going to get told to "read the threads" (something I already did).
I can't even post in the rom thread since I'm a new member so this was my only option. I guess I will just apologize again for being an Android noob and apparently an XDA forum noob as well.
You can't post in Dev because you need at least 10 posts to do so, something a little reading would have told you and can be easily fixed by posting in the Off Topic forum to get your post count up. Everyone in here is a volunteer and this is not the Help Desk. No one owes you anything, so before you continue sounding like an entitled punk I suggest you count yourself lucky to have gotten the right answer and just move on.

that was meant to tease them even further but no seriously is ridiculous, all these threads about htc one x, sgs3, to buy the note now or wait...we all know android phones come out every week there will always be a new better once 1 week after you buy yours+I dont really think somebody will decide to buy a phone just based on what xda members tell him but whatever
With all due respect, I posted the thread because I do value your opinion. I have been a member of XDA since 2009 and I can proudly say that the forums have people that do try and help out others. I would do it. Since I value the opinion of people at XDA, why post it on twitter or facebook where most likely one out of 100s will have the phone? What is the point? I posted my link in the general topics where GENERAL things are to be posted - consider it chatting but in a more structured way. To all you people that joined just a few weeks ago, you should not even comment since you haven`t even been here long enough to comment on why there are certain posts in the forum.

You seem friendly enough so i don't know where the instant flaming seems to come from.. Either way, here's some advice : this is the Samsung Galaxy Note forum.. Therefore asking about which phone to get is going to have an obvious answer. Try a more generalized forum.

Is it time to lock this thread yet?
The only thing worst than people making pointless obvious answer threads is people making threads complaining about those people.

Actually, it's only you that does not care. The purpose of the forum is for information. Information from other members whether or not it is personal or a link to something on the web.
I am looking for a new phone now and I am interested in the Note. Unfortunately I do not know anyone with one, so I ask here what people think of it.
Their opinions are a valuable part of this community and have helped in my decision. They didn't make the decision for me, but they did help me in making up my mind.

You should get the Note! Its a fantastic phone with great versatility. I came over from iPhone a few months ago, and I can't believe how much better this device is. I just rooted and flashed a ICS rom, and its great! You won't be disappointed.

I agree with your well put statement 100%
Other peoples opinions don't make or break mine, but it's good to hear feedback on an expensive device before purchasing. really the OP got flamed right off the bat for no good reason, it was a simple harmless question: and if you didn't like the Queston it's as easy as not responding to the thread then.

What a useless thread to let people know the op himself/herself is a jerk and don't care about it.
I wish I asked about how poor battery life is and how often the system force crashes before I purchased it.
I HOPE NEW COMERS DON'T GET THE WRONG IMPRESSION OF HOW XDA FOLKS ARE BY READING THE OP'S UTTERED ****.
USELESS OP
What happened to the black clipping/crush thread with the poll? I was going to check it this morning for anything new and it's not popping up on any of the i717 forums. I found it on google forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1559800 but it says invalid thread id? Are we being censored? ... this was a legitimate topic that I'm sure a lot of people were following.

There was some silly bickering going on, and the mods asked for it to stop. Guess it didn't. But I would have thought it would just be locked and not deleted. Unless the OP asked to have deleted. Too bad.
What a shame :/
Peartfan ruined it like Peart ruined ruined the idea of actual good drumming. Ech.

Why did the mods not just delete the posts or ban the users? There was a ton of valuable info in that thread.
I am wondering if the OP was banned or deleted his account. I don't see his posts anywhere. What was it, tenderchickn or something?
My guess is that once the user account is deleted, all threads go along with it.

I know right? He came in offering no help, insisting people are overreacting about the problem then cried wolf and asked for thread deletion when mods told him to stop baiting.
I literally read through the whole thread and even posted my hypothesis backed up with pictures. I guess it only takes one to ruin it for the others.
you can still see the google cache of the thread if you wanted anything specific from it. only the first page though

Same here...I didn't see what happened in the thread, but I guess I just don't understand why the WHOLE thread needed to be deleted instead of cleaned up or just locked?

Unfortunately the thread had over 35+ (from what I remember) pages of content, and most of the good stuff was buried in the middle
DAMNIT!
I was using that thread as a reference in an effort to get several of the major tech/Android blogs to post articles about the black clipping problem. I don't understand why the mods had to delete the entire thread when all they really needed to do was delete the last page or two of nonsense brought on by one troll.
I may try to start a new one if the mods don't/can't bring the thread back...
I think I'll try to get an admin at XDA from http://www.xda-developers.com/contact/ to look into this and possibly revive the thread. That's way too much collateral damage to control one user posting a couple stupid comments
Hey guys, I'm definitely still here. I said a couple of things to PeartFan40 that were direct, but not disrespectful in response to his belittlement. I was just trying to respond to his trolling and trying to make him realize that his "input" was not welcome. But I guess the mods thought it went too far, for which I sincerely apologize. We received a warning from oka1, but we didn't say anything off-topic following the warning.
i agree that post is very valuable
especially since i see now no solution was found,and black clipping still exists
REVIVE!

Ahhh i vaguely remember he was the one that kept saying it was all a source problem. Oh well, ive contacted the xda admins so well see where it goes. Does anyone remember the mods name? Might be good to reach out to them also...

The mod who issued the warning was oka1, but I don't know if he is the one who deleted the thread.
I smell a conspiracy
I think Samsung wants all threads closed when talking about black crush/clipping on their displays perhaps they got to XDA? I read the thread since it started and found I have the clipping issue. I don't care to argue if the clipping issue exists I wish there was a dedicated thread to discuss solutions to this.
