Hey guys,
HTC Sensation recently broke and Asurion is sending me a Galaxy S II. It was either that or an HTC Amaze and since I wasn't impressed with the Sensation I opted not for the Amaze but S II rather. Couple of questions I have though as I am pressed for time at work right now and don't have the time to search. So here goes:
Can someone point me to how to root it once it arrives?
Are the ICS ROMs stable and which bugs does it contain?
The S II uses CWM recovery correct?
The T-Mobile S II is the SGH-T989 and not this I9100 model I have been seeing right?
That's all I can think of for now. Anything other useful tips or advice I'd greatly appreciate it! I feel happy to be a part of the S II family now. It seems like a really good device that I will be happy with. Thanks again!

Hello All, I am new to the XDA Forum, bit scared of the Noob video
I love my gadgets, I love my phones and love all the stuff you can do it. I have the HTC Desire had it now for 21months, my network is Orange UK. I plan to stay with Orange as I have a good price plan and good network around where I live.
My big question is to you, I need help and honest advice on what phone I should looking at getting next. I love android I love how it works.
Here is the phone I have looked at.
Samsung Galaxy S2
LG Optimus 3D
HTC Sensation XL
Iphone 4s
I can upgrade to all of these.
I'm asking as I have to have the phone for 2 years
So help, honest advice please.
Welcome to forums
Thread moved to Q&A due to it being a question. Would advise you to read forum rules and post in correct section.
I would get the Galaxy Nexus unless you can get a Galaxy Nexus on that network. But out of the list, Galaxy S2 is by far the best.
Please thank me if this helped!
Just wanna say what's up!
and I had a question too, what's with the:
Galaxy S II Original Android Development
Galaxy S II Android Development
I went inside of both.. they both look exactly the same.
---------------------------------
Happy to be changing phones, and I will root my new phone and help ppl out.
Also, anything I should know?

So sadly I ported from the hd2 to a galaxy s II and I have read some threads and I have managed to root phone and added cwm to the phone after reading for a 2 day period I take the plunge to ask for some help I want to change to a new rom with better battery life and with less bloat ware on the phone but I really don't want to brick phone or loose some of its cool features I know this question has probably bean asked but I see nothing for the T989 on T-mobile any or some help will be really appreciated thank you in advance....................
This forum is for the international version, if you keep looking on the XDA forums home page there is a separate forum for the T-Mobile t989
On that note thread closed.

All right guys, i have searched for this topic with zero to absolutely ridiculous results. Money wise im not so up for it. but is it worth the update knowing that a new iphone is coming out, pushing Samsung for a SGS4 perhaps? i want to know what you guys think. share your thoughts with me.
Thanks in advance
Your search came back with zero because we dont allow vs. threads. If you want the phone, go but it. If you dont, then dont. If you want to talk about the GSIII then post in the GSIII forum.

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.
