When you translate third post in google translate you get something like this:
Hello, I was willing to step in Android, as I like the phones from Samsung, was to look into the Galaxy 5 I5500 already offering a good cost-benefit, but I came across a question, Android will have updates for this unit?
Hello! Yes, there is a forecast update 5 Galaxy for the month of December. The programming is that Android 2.2 (Froyo) is available in December.

look at the other thread of cyanogenmod 7 development for Samsung Galaxy 5 device)
Since I'm a developer of the Cyanogen port for this phone, let me answer:
Until the major bugs are fixed, we recommend you use Froyo. However, you will probably enjoy testing Cyanogen 7 for a day or so, if you can forgive the bugs.

In my current ROM - Indic font rendering is not working properly. I replaced DroidSansFallback.ttf in font folder. It is having right font now, however Conjuncts are not working. Any idea about that..
Also is it taken care in Cyanogen 7
CyanogenMod
I'm using the subpsyke's CyanogenMod and it's really good. A little slow but whatever
I recommend CyanogenMod 7.1 hotfix 1.4 .. is f***ing stable and works fast....I like this very much....ADW Launcher is incredible.I like that the menu was changed from that page format to grid...I got a lot of apps and games and they works fine.
Cyangen mod
i use Cyanogen Mod 7,1, and has overclocked my phone to 768mhz.
Its a new phone, me like it now.
I would definitly choose Cyanogen over original rom.
Hi, can some one post links for 2.3.7 & instructions for download? My phone is Samsung GS 2 I9100. I've seen people talking about this is a stable firmware. I just upgraded to 2.3.5 yesterday and 2.3.6 is causing battery drainage I might as well upgrade to 2.3.7 if it's that good.
A big thanks if some one can help.
Hi,
i have a problem, the logo screen of samsung galaxy ace s8.. waits for about 40 seconds/more and only afterwards goto boot animation which takes a while to.
i don't remember the phone acting that way usually the logo screen is only for a moment.
iv installed stock after Cyanogen and i understand thats not good but i used stock light 6 which should be supported and it does work except for this part.
what can cause this kind of behavior?
and second question.since i wanted to return to stock rom i checked it out and i have 2 questions about it
1) can i use kies and is it better or worse than odin?
2) what are the different between the same versions of android and what does fit me (for example S5830XWKS2 S5830XXKPO both are 2.3.5 and 2.3.6 have different one completely)
thanks in advance for any help
well i can answer your second question
2.3.xx versions are just minor updates ...sometimes they fix wifi and bluetooth problems and sometimes also improve battery life..they improve the stability and and performance if the phone and add some eye candys ( the 2.3.5 version adds overscroll glow effect)...
about your first question : did u wipe cache partition after flashing the rom??? see if it helps...

i tried to clean cache and everything that is needed
no luck
about the question about firmware: both are 2.3.5: 2.3.5 S5830XWKS2 2.3.5 S5830XXKPO
the question is what it the difference between them.

Greetings,
I'm about to upgrade my Samsung Galaxy S2 2.3.5 into one of the followings:
1- cyanogen latest version.
2- Miui latest version.
3- Android original stock jellybean.
And i need to know which one of them is the best for battery life cause it is my main requirment.
Thanks in advance,
Futeki
WTF? Stock Jellybean? xD
Battery life depends mostly on the kernel. Just try few kernels and ROMs on your own and you will find the best combination for you.

Kernel determines the battery life, as far as I'm concerned, irrespective of the Rom
Swyped from my Galaxy SII
Hello everybody,
I bought galaxy s2 before two days..
As I found various bugs, lags and irritating inbuilt ICS, I downgraded my galaxy s2 from ICS to gingerbread 2.3.6.
Now everything is perfect and stable.
But while browsing Tamil sites, there are irregular display of tamil fonts.
Earlier I used galaxy S advance which is gingerbread 2.3.6, having no issues all Indian regional languages support font display...
I think the problem for this is gingerbread 2.3.6 updated for galaxy S2 was on Dec 2012.
Gingerbread 2.3.6 for Galaxy S advance is the latest update (Probably on may 2012).
This is the reason for imperfect rendering of tamil and other indian regional laguages support on web browser.
1 .Now What Can I do to display indian regional languages (Especially tamil fonts) support for web browser on Gingerbread 2.3.6 galaxy S2?
2 .Do anyone have the system fonts folder of galaxy S advance in order to put them in galaxy S2 system fonts folder (after rooting)?
Or Can anyone give system fonts for galaxy S2 ICS?
Will this method work perfectly by replacing system fonts?
Have anybody tried this?
3 .Or what should I do for perfect display of tamil fonts in web browser in GB 2.3.6 Galaxy S2.
Because I dont like Inbuilt ICS anymore.
Please help me.
Thanks in advance.
(I also tried the last updated firmware UK Orange 2.3.6 for galaxy S2 which was April 2012. There are no issues on display tamil fonts, all are perfect.But It seems completely designed for the Orange mobile for UK)

Yes, I know S2 ics supports native regional langauges...
But I dont like ics...because many apps do not work on ics and laggy too..
So I want to stay with gingerbread with native language support.
(In galaxy s advance with 2.3.6, all indian languages are well rendering in browser and other apps.)
I am asking why the same can not be acheived in s2 with 2.3.6?
I want to know which parts of a rom involve for this fonts display?
BecauseI just collected system/fonts file from ics rom and put into gb system/fonts and rebooted.
No improvement.
I want to know what should be done for this?
