4.0.4 - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is the new official ICS 4.0.4 been released from samsung? ive been reading way too many forums stating it is and can;t seem to download it off Kies or OTA...im a noob at this..im probably putting this in the wrong section and will get chewed out by most of you on here but just simply need an answer..thanks

Triple wrong... Double wrong for posting on the development section [couldn't at least post in General? At the development is bad, really bad. On General still bad, but not so bad as the development ], the right section is the Q&A, and simple wrong for not searching about it, otherwise you would find your answer.

Lock and go

It has been released for Russia and China only.

Go to sammobile.com, search your device and see what has been released.

4.0.4 tbh doesn't really add much to the phone vs 4.0.3 anyways. I am more looking forward to the possibility of the rumours of jelly bean coming to the S2 though I hear it's not going to well. The initial testing from Samsung is performance isn't that cracking on dual core devices which could be a reason why we won't see Jelly bean on the S2 even though others like HTC and not mentioned any such performance issues?

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/

Thanks for your reply! I guess I'll wait for the ICS to officially come out for TM...
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)

Csc

Hey i cant change my csc settings. I have SEARCHED all over google and have not found a solution. All that shows up is att where it says sales thing.
i am guessing english isnt your first language?
what exactly is it you are looking to DO? with all of your threads you keep opening up, it seems like you have a goal in mind, but dont want to share it....you keep asking very generic questions, and honestly, none of them really make any sense, it just reads as incoherent babbling....
so lets start this off with:
WHAT IS YOUR END GOAL?
WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO ACCOMPLISH?
WHAT IS IT YOU ARE ULTIMATELY LOOKING TO DO?
why do you think you need to modify your CSC for any reason?
I am trying to change my csc settings because i flashed a stock rom which may have a different setting. I am thinking that is why kies wont let me update! Sorry i have so many unanswered questions because all you people reply is with "search". If you are taking the time to scold me about searching and the rules you might as well answer the freakin question.

but you dont even know if it actually changed anything.
you have provided NO info to the members of the forum for them to help you....
WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO YOUR PHONE SO FAR?
WHY DO YOU THINK YOU HAVE MODIFIED THE CSC?
WHY DO YOU THINK YOU NEED TO CHANGE THE CSC?
WHY DO YOU THINK YOU ARE GOING TO GET AN UPDATE FROM KIES?
i dont think you need to change your CSC settings at all....just flash back to stock....its not difficult
and if you dont like hearing the word SEARCH, maybe you shouldnt be here on this site, because its the first F'ng rule of the forum.....
I did flash a stock rom. I explained the reason i want to CHECK my settings is because kies says my device does not support updating from it. The only time it gave me that message is when i rooted it. I noticed it and so i flashed a stock rom and was still given the message. Samsung then gave me a 2.3.6 ota update and STILL i have the message. I'm not a 100% sure that its vecause of the csc, i just want to check. And when i tried checking, it diddnt let me. All it said by sales code was "att" with nothing under it instead of "csc". I wasn't sure if that was a problem so i posred this topic. Need anh more info? And is why i want to do something necessary? As long as you know what i'm trying to do, (and not why) that should be enough.
EDIT: i used zedomax to root and unroot.
you posted this topic of how to CHANGE it. you didnt explain why you thought you needed to change it.
by me piecing together your different threads, it was obviously clear to me that you didnt understand this phone and/or android....so its pretty reasonable to assume that you didnt fully understand CSC....
i wish you luck in your many threads....and hope you dont post on here soon about bricking your phone because you didnt read enough....it is painstakingly obvious that you just want to be spoonfed what you want to know and not help anyone help you, so to that, i bid farewell.
All i want to f****** know is how to get my phone to support updating via kies. I dont want an arguement and im fairly confused because im trying to understand but all i get from you are scoldings and criticism. I would like help but all this arguing is making it that more difficult
I'm a noob, so please understand... xD

Basically what you're saying is all these threads you've created are related. Meaning you broke ANOTHER rule of xda about spamming the board. This all should have gone in one thread because this isn't your own personal forum.

Actually, no. This is NOT the main reason this site is around. It was created to aid developers. It has degraded over the past year or so due to people thinking they deserve help just because. Sorry you don't understand, but I will also tell you to search. Understand what you want before you start messing with something you have no understanding of. I know right now this is a useless post to you. But you are probably not going to find anyone here to spoon feed you the answer. If you knew what you were getting into when you started you would know why keis is not going to work for you now.

100% disagree. If it was really like that then there wouldn't be any bugs in software period . New bugs arise after testing new software.
I'm going to kill all your threads by this one post.
THERE IS NO OFFICIAL ICS UPDATE FOR OUR PHONE, AND THERE LIKELY WON'T BE FOR THE NEXT COUPLE MONTHS. THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT.
Even if there was a Kies update, you'd have to use Kies Mini, the full Kies does not and never will update our phone no matter what you do. And if you somehow happen to find an update pushed to your phone over the air or through Kies Mini, it's 2.3.6 GB. That is the only update available to stock 2.3.4 phones.
You want official ICS now? Go buy a Galaxy Nexus or an International Galaxy SII.
Mods, you may remove or edit this post as you feel is necessary. I request though, that you close these threads before more crap happens.

[Q] ICS for Galaxy Tab 10.1

I agree with you,,Samsung never let us to know bout pics update''if you want feel the pics,,use in official rom
It was planned for May, but then Samsung decided to release Galaxy Tab 2 with the only major difference being ICS. So the planned update for the original tab was delayed until end of Q2 to help Tab 2 sales.

Please don't let another thread go this direction. If you want to tell this story, provide links to reputable sources in which Samsung (not some third party) has stated a release date for ICS for the GT10.1. If you don't have links, please stop making this stuff up.
At present there isn't even an official Samsung leak for ICS version of Tab 10.1, that's the reason why only nightly custom ROM's are available. Usually it takes still time after a leak arrived.

A single blog post? Come on now, if Samsung had promised something, don't you think you would be able to find at least one actual news outlet that carried the story?
Well... they did. And the blog post you linked to misquoted it. It took me 10 seconds to figure that out (hint: just google a line of the text). Nobody from Samsung has ever given a date for the release of ICS on the Galaxy Tab 10.1. Whether that's a good business practice is dubious, but claiming that they said something they didn't--and quoting a badly written blog post as proof--is lazy and increases the amount of misinformation floating around this forum...

Just for fun I keyed into Samsung Live Chat and asked when 4.0 was coming out. I got some robot named Arnold who basically said:
"I'm sorry to inform you that there is no information available on an update for your device. Watch our website and STFU"
So it's gone from UK/Ireland and then the rest of the world to "we don't know sh*t". Sigh...back to beating the crap out of my ADW launcher

Tempted. Seriously tempted. Here's my thing...I'm a big time rookie and a victim of the "rolling recovery" disease that is flying all over the place in this forum. I've looked everywhere on all of the recommended threads and have investigated all kinds of tidbits but can't find a whole lot of consistency with regard to a potential answer to my question. I started a new thread in the Q&A here about it and would consider that for SURE if I could just get my recovery back to where I can read it so I can do a simple root.
You're probably laughing at my green ass and that's OK. I'm just hoping someone will have pity on me so I can finally start playing with this thing the way I want to.

[Q] Naming of SGS3 forum (another bricked SGS3)

Looks like I've fallen victim (as well as others) to not noticing that there are 2 forums for the Galaxy S3 and bricking my phone not even 24 hrs after getting it in my hands.
Any way this forum could give at least *some* indication in the forum name that it is for the International version? It seems like a simple way to save a lot of people a lot of stress and $$. Had I seen International version in the forum name, or somewhere in a sub-forum, I would have avoided it altogether and easily avoided hard bricking my phone.
In my case what I did when rooting was follow this forum to this thread:
SAMSUNG GALAXY S3 TOOLKIT V3.0
and noticed that AT&T SGS3 uses a different toolkit, so i followed the link to:
SAMSUNG GALAXY S3 QCOM TOOLKIT V1.0
thinking it was just a different thread in this same forum (I've never come across split forums in any of the previous phones Android or otherwise) I followed everything there, and had zero issues with rooting and getting CWM on there.
I went back to the Android development sub-forum and decided I'd stick with a ROM similar to the stock rom for starters (seems the least adventurous, just in case), the most common seeming to be CM9 or Omega. I've already seen CM9, so I figured I'd try out Omega. Downloaded it, copied it over to internal SD, followed the usual boot to CWM, backup, clear data, clear cache, and flash zip.
Installer ran through, said it was successful, and showed an error about a mismatched property (can't remember the exact error). Installer said it would reboot, I clicked go and that was the last the screen turned on.
I've had at least a fair amount of experience with flashing ROMs, bootloaders, etc. across several phones and have had no serious hard bricking issues until recently. I usually pay attention to indications of different versions of a particular phone and which ROMs, etc go with which phone but this one got the best of me.
Note the heads up on the first page .
PM mods to change to International in the forum header .
Wont stop those who fail to read the instructions same happened on SGS2 presumption by users that this is the forum for my phone .Says I9300 on the lid but the phone in question is SGH 1747 not I9300 .

The forum name is "Samsung Galaxy S III I9300"
Last time I check, this number is only for international SGS3
Seems like I start to think like a Green Day's song...
Sorry to hear your phone is broken.
Have you tried getting it into download mode or using a Jig?
One of both methods should get you running again.
Btw, cm9 is the absolute opposite of stock Rom: it has NOTHING Samsung-specific since it is built from heavily modified Google sourcecode,

People have already explained how to differentiate between the international version and the US version.
This forum has I9300 written on top, that means international version.
Your phone has its own forum easily found by searching for att galaxy sIII.
Your phone isn't the I9300 so why would you flash it with stuff for that model??
Would you flash a kernel for a I9250 or a rom for an I515? No.
Sorry this happened to your phone but it happens so often here that now not a single f*ck will be given as it is down to not reading and not searching. User error.
This has been fixed before so try search here and in your respective forum.
Lesson learned.

Even with the stop if you are a Yank or Canuck post they are still coming here and flashing wrong firmware today .
No way around majority wont read and if adding SGS3 i9300 to the forum header is going to save a few i don't have a problem . But will they even read that forum header .

Americans like to sue everyone for their own stupidity. So first they have to convince themselves that everyone except themselves are to blame.

people complain about my sig lol, they say its condescending and im not helping when i just post "read my sig".
i just got tired of posting the same answer and decided to put in my sig.

The funny thing is that it says i9300 in the Forum name! It seams that he is not the only one that is not reading!
Maybe instead of labeling it, we use colors and shapes.. maybe some people will understand that better than words..
It's obvious hokked on fonics dident werk fer dem
It name I9300, is your phone I9300? if not, then is your problem. No naming issue on here.
By the way, sorry to hear your phone is bricked.
Next time read more in proper, don't simply shoot as you not read in proper.

Definitely on the first part as proof is the number that have posted after that was stickied right at the top .
Second part not something i would ever say in regard to our beloved cousins in the US of A .

Closed, we even have a sticky right here in both the general and Q/A sections, and in a moment the dev section which should direct people to the right place, sorry you decided not to read enough stuff before flashing your £400 device

New OTA 3.02.651.8 update.. Any news?

So I'm using my HTC One Max today and boom a update notification came through..
I came straight here to see information about it but have not seen anything.
Does anyone have a clue what they updated yet or is it to soon to tell? haha.
I really want to update to a new phone soon, but anything to make this phone's battery last longer is good news.
You may not know but this forum is for development not a Q&A. There are some threads about this already in the General forum. There will not be an official update for the US variant most likely. If it happeneds it will be because it's ported.

I have me and my brother on one max's with unlimited grandfathered. Stock 4.4.2, s-off, and rooted. Today we both get an ota pop up everytime we wake the phone up from sleeping. Annoying. Root explorer only shows the otapkg.zip to be 36mb so i doubt its a big update or anything. I have been working all day without any time to look at it and my bro has no clue what he is using, i just showed him how to turn his hotspot on. haha
Hopefully someone knows an easy way to get rid of this update. I sent a pm to someone else who had helped me with rooting stuff awhile ago when i first got the 2 max's used. (thanks for all your help before if you read this) He hasnt been using a max but recommended flashing stock recovery, flashing update, and redoing superuser and twrp. I cant tell my brother to do all that long distance... hes electronic disabled.... I'm hoping i can rename the update and get it to stop showing up and leave us alone. I think I had done something similar to this with the rezound ota annoyances.
Sorry to respond to this post while its in the wrong section... But I couldn't find anything related to this 07-31-2015 ota from verizon in the general. I do see alot of stuff about international lollipop dropping, but I think this is different.
I knew this was for the Dev section but this affects those of us who are using stock rooted rom's with earlier updates that they received from this very section. So pardon me when I thought this was the place to bring it up.. Thanks for telling me we'd not get the US Variant... Personally I don't want to upgrade to Lollipop. Much prefer the current one. I'm with the previous replier, I'd rather stop the annoyance of the update notification. I haven't downloaded it but it's getting annoying having to see the update every 4 hours.

I just did a multi search engine (including the site search) through out the HTC one max forum for the ota update "3.02.651.8" and got no threads matching my search. The latest official version to be discussed is the 3.02.651.5 which is what I'm on already. If you would be so kind as to point me in the directions of said thread(s) I'd be grateful as I do not see them anywhere.
