Is the modding for the Samsung Galaxy S II D710 [Sprint Version] Just as good as the modding for the Samsung Galaxy S II GT-19100 [Unlocked] version?
I am looking to switch from AT&T Dell Streak to Sprint Samsung Galaxy S II D710 [Sprint Version]. Finanical Reasons.
Best,
needspractice
PS.
I have my streak moded perfectly and was just wondering if you could mod up the D710 just like you could mod the Streak or the GT-19100?
Nope totally different phones if you flash anything made for the i9100 you will destroy your spring galaxy s2

Not sure that was his question... Sounds like he was just asking about modding.
OP, there is modding for the SPH-D710, yes. But sm625614 brings a VERY valid and important point. The SPH-D710 has different hardware, so do NOT flash any i9100 firmwares or kernels to it.
SPH-D710 also has a separate forum here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1281
Aw. Thank you very much. What is the difference between the two though? I mean am I going to be depressed because I have the Sprint version or is there a huge support moding group out there for the D710?

Besides the different cellular technology? (GSM vs. CDMA)
Why don't you check out the D710 forum I linked you to, and find out? I don't know the answer, as I'm an i9100 user, not a d710 user. Sorry.
Basically all I want to do on the Sprint network is tether with a mobile hotspot up to 8 devices for free. Install non market apps like the Amazon App Store. And Root my phone. Is this all pretty easy and possible with the D710 that you get from the Sprint Store?
And if I went there today? Would I get the newest version with the newest parts like the silver headphone jack and what not?
Also do you think its a big deal to give up my unlimited data plan on AT&T? Or if you pay the extra 10 dollars with Sprint is that basically unlimited data?
I would change out the roms but that is not entirely to important to me but I would like the option to.

I see you already posted this EXACT SAME question in the thread you posted in the Epic 4g Touch forum... So why are you still posting Sprint questions in a forum for a phone that doesn't work on Sprint, and also disregarding the forum rule (http://forum.xda-developers.com/announcement.php?f=263 - scroll down a bit) that says to only post once?
When you root it or flash a new ROM does it give you portable wireless hot spot?

That explains it. This guy needs to learn some forum etiquette. He doesn't even seem to be looking at the responses to most of his spam posts either. Just taking the shotgun approach.
O can you get wireless hot spot?

Hi guys I have been getting slow speeds, on my 4g galaxy s is really slow the top is 0.12mbps beyond that it can't even touch 0.13, is something wrong with the radio?, i called my service provider and they said that my service was fine and it could be a problem with the phone. The phone is brand new and it started a couple of days ago, they also say it may be a problem with the towers in my area. It has to do with the phone I think because the tower cant be bad for days
are you on stock or a custom rom?
have you tried a different modem driver?
Why did you make 2 threads with the same question?
Also, go over to the galaxy s 4g section, as that is your phone and more people can help you. This is the vibrant 3g section.

The development activity on this forum is great. However, I've been checking out the i9100 forum and just 'wow' at all the activity occurring with the international version.
Would it be crazy to sale the AT&T one and pick up the International version? It's probably a noob question, but I don't really understanding if the ROM changes for AT&T are strictly tied to this forum or if some from the i9100 forum can be used.

I believe people get the AT&T version because they cannot cough up a ton of money for the international device. If you have that much money laying around and you ike the look of it, go ahead and buy it. However we do have design gears and a few others working with our AT&T device as well. It's a shame Samsung just doesn't make that phone available for all carriers. Then everybody can have an awesome phone.

You can't flash a ROM for the i9100 directly into the at&t version; you will run into problems such as the soft keys no longer working. Some devs are using i9100 rom files in their roms, though, such as Cognition 777.
You also might have to jump through some hoopla to get hspa+ working properly. People who got the international version before the at&t version came out had to do some tricks, such as giving at&t the imei number of a current 4g phone, so their phones would be identified as capable of 4g speeds.
Hellraiser makes it possible to flash any i9100 ROM on the i777 without issue. That package is flashed after the i9100 ROM and fixes the soft keys and other issues.

Makes it hard to fully explain to someone why android and not apple.
I didn't convince a friend to jump to android from iPhone, the phone did. I was getting ready to show him a feature and ended up running out of time on his lunchbreak. He said later just the little he had seen navigating the phone was more than he'd been able to do on his iPhone.

Not true at all. I'm currently running Criskelo v30 on my i777 and it works flawlessly. You can flash just about any GT9100 ROM on the AT&T version. All you need to do is run HellRaiser and HapticFix and you're good to go.

You can flash a GT9100 ROM on your AT&T SGS2 without problem. All you need to do is download HellRaiser Mod and HapticFix, place it on your SDcard and flash them AFTER you flash a GT9100 ROM. DO NOT REBOOT PHONE UNTIL YOU HAVE FLASHED HELLRAISER AND HAPTICFIX!!
Enjoy!

I'd stick with the AT&T version.
I'd keep the ATT version too. It is almost exactly the same as the international version, with the specific exceptions of the key layout, NFC chip in the ATT model, and a slightly lamer charging circuit in the ATT model, as well as missing FM. Its really just a tradeoff of "do you want FM or NFC?". Development is going strong for the ATT SGS2, and honestly, we have a larger choice of ROMs than the international owners, because we can flash Attain ROMs or i9100 ROMs (with Hellraiser).
Thanks for the information.
Can you point me to the HELLRAISE and HAPTICFIX mods?
Thanks.

You're probably best just buying one outright and getting a separate data plan, there seems to be something about the US that means no network touches anything unless it's an exclusive...

thank you
There's no ROM's for the T-Mobile version??!?!?!?!
Someone has to have an answer for this and XDA needs a thread on the T-Mobile SGH-T859 10.1 4G version.
I'm living and working abroad when my old my touch 4G died on me mid-use. I have a T-Mobile USA sum card that I use for wifo calling to keep in touch with friends and family in the US. So after my mt4g died I looked at the phones on T-Mobile website that support wifi calling. Seeing that the s2 does I bought this intent on rooting and putting the app on it. I rooted and installed cyanogen, because I used that on my mt4g and it had Wi-Fi calling. However this version doesn't. I tried searching the development forum for Roms with this but couldn't fin any indications as to which roms do or don't. Can anyone point me in the direction of one that does? Or where I could download the app stand alone? Any tips or clues are much appreciated

I found a T989 ROM that has the WiFi calling I need. The phone I have is I9100 and based on my research has a different processor than the T989. My gut tells me that means I can't use the T989 ROM on the I9100, but I would love to be proven wrong. Can anyone clarify?

You can't flash the firmware on your phone. If you flash T989 firmware on your phone, then you can as well say a good bye bye to it.

Any idea how I can get WiFi calling on here? I'm not too skilled, but I would think there would be a way to port this calling feature from a 989 Rom. Or am I just following a pipe dream?

it has not been ported yet and i don't think anybody here is really interested in it.
You can check At&T /Sprint galaxy s2 section, If it has been ported there

How hard is it to port this app? If it is something I could do, is there a tutorial that you know of?
Or rather how hard is it to port any app

whoa dude
1. android 4.1.1 would be cm10, not cm9. unless you're selling a phone with android 4.0.4, which would be cm9. don't confuse the customer.
2. this phone has a 3G radio only, no 4G.
correction
You are correct and i knew that i was totally mesmorized by the sick ass boot animation which clearly states CM9 BTW can someone tell me how to extract that image and install it on my S2 T989?

next time google the phone specs lol
obviously there is no magic involved here if the phone didn't support 4g from the factory then it never will you are talking about differneces in hardware
something you *should* know by now
also I don't recommenced selling a phone preloaded with cyanogen mod the customer may have issues getting it to activate with verizon afaik last I checked you can not activate a phone running cyanogen mod you need to be running the stock firmware first activate THEN flash to whatever
Im more of a software guy never once had or will have verizon as a carrier or sprint so I wasnt sure and the guy asked so as a stand up guy instead of bull****ting him to sell the phone i asked and phone is advertised with cm rom installed and also for the choice to be flashed back to the powerwashed 2.3.4 GB so thanks for the input but I do *KNOW* how to list and sell a phone.
