Is there any difference between firmwares of different regions ??
If there is no difference then why the hell SAMSUNG releases different regions firmwares (RACIST eh ?) , why can't they release a SINGLE FIRMWARE for all the international versions of SII aka GT-I9100 ??
So dear members please give me a STRONG answer for this questions, I would like to get updated from you about such weird things !!

Reasons:
1. Different firmwares have different language packs and CSCs.
2. Some firmwares are carrier branded and for carrier locked phones.
3. There are different variants of the Galaxy S2.

So the difference is only about language pack and nothing else ?

I respect devs who put their hardwork and support our devices and i think posting something off the topic on their thread can be considered a sin but not on these forums outside the development thread. Remember guys YOU WERE A NOOB ONCE,not everybody comes into this world with android coded into their brains! so help if you want to or stop coming into the Q&A thread,we have many knowledgeable moderators here,we wouldn't need somebody like you here mr.underling:laugh:

Check the build date and change log.
The simple fact that one ROM is released after another doesn't guarantee that's gonna perform better.
Some regions also contain different modems and sh*t.
Nordic works well, Netherlands is alright I guess. Everyone is waiting for the unbranded UK. It's almost always the samsung's 'refined' release.

This is maybe the world's worst question . .
Let's assume I flash my phone with Ukraine ROM, (Sammobile) and Samsung releases some bug fixes for Ukraine ROM, then am supposed to get it ?
Yeah, remember the small update for FOP I talked about earlier? Same thing.
The worst question would be something like....I have to be ukranian to flash ukrain's JB!???????

Agreed, the Skyrocket people are clogging a perfectly good SGS2 forum...
Mikechannon is an admin
Or at least move them to the SGH-T989 forum since their Qualcomm hardware more closely resembles that. The only thing similar to the i777 is the at&t logo on the front...
Is there a way to atleast filter the content to exclude anything with the skyrocket term? It feels like a wild party was thrown and now there are a bunch of squaters that won't leave your home....
J am guessing something.tis being.g done about it right now. It is not showing up for me underneath our i777 links now.
Sent From My KICKASS CM7 AT&T SGS2
There is already a thread of this in the Skyrocket sub-forum. A mod already posted that he has passed the info along.
This sub-section is BS at best. I9100, AT&T S2, and Tmobile have their own section, there is no need for combining 2 phones that are not identical.
It is just going to create a giant mess, as if these forums don't get messy enough as is.

So... why are we still stuck under the S2?
They had time to make this section, and add the Rezound/Nook/Vivid. I don't see what the complication was to give this its own section at the same time.

Because it took mere moments to create a blank forum for 3 new devices as opposed to waiting for an Admin to go back in and move forums/threads.
The Mods/Admins are aware of the situation and the situation is being discussed/looked at. It didnt get its own section at the time because we already have WAY to many forums as it is... and I think somebody thought the Skyrocket and the GS2 were basically the same phones (which they are obviously not).
Its getting sorted out though, so please just a little patience. Thank you.
Edit: Ill PM this thread to the Mods of this forum just to make sure that this has been in fact taken to the proper people. It seems most people (on both sides) are in agreement that the Skyrocket needs it own forums and should not be meshed with the GS2.
I was just asking, Sorry if I came across otherwise. Your explanation is appreciated!
I understand the forum is flooded with phones, but that (clearly) is only going to get worse with the crazy Android Fragmentation, and with Nokia joining Winmo I'm sure they will end up the same way lol.

It's about one month i cannot see any new "stock" release. LA4 (2.3.6) and LPB (4.0.1) are the last I can find. What is happening at Samsung? Are they working on some new hardware and spending more effort on it? Or do they think this is the best they can do? IMHO there is still a lot of work to do.
Is there someone with fresh news?
UPDATES:
1) Gingerbread will have more updates
2) Icescream Sandwitch first official release will be at the end of March
3) there are rumors about a US official ICS release at 1 of March

In conclusion the opinion is that gingerbread will have no more upgrades and we must wait till the end of March for the first stable IceScream Sandwitch Sgs2 release.
Personally I hoped Samsung would have been releasing some more Ics beta test releases to give evidence of their immense work and in the same time they would have been bringing that experience on gingerbread, has they did till last releases.
I will copy these Infos on the first post and I will keep it updated for more news.

my opinion about existing ICS roms for SGS2
the last ICS rom for SG2 is XXLPH , easyly to be found in s forum
I tried many roms based on XXLPH and i think that remix 9.4 is the best
I think there will not be major improvment before a new sansung leaked rom
or a ICS MIUI
br46
SGS2 with remix 9.4
Accepted that I am really a fool. I installed a new ICS ROM on my AT&T Galaxy S2 and now when I make or receive calls, I get no voice!!!!.
I must have bricked this phone...
Can some good soul help this noob to fix it back!!!. If you need me to reinstall Stock ROM, then I do not have that....

1st question. why wouldnt you follow the rules and make a nandroid backup? because if you did, you wouldnt be having this issue.
2nd question. why wouldnt you give the necessary information as to what you flashed and from where?
its almost impossible to help you out when you give no information. you also havent bricked your phone if you can turn it on still.
This is what happens when you put the cart before the horse.
More info on what you did so we can:

No, that won't work.
The rules of XDA are clear - Search before posting, never post before reading the FAQ.
Not flashing anything until you have done research is just plain common sense.
How to flash I9100 firmwares, and WHICH ones can be flashed, is covered in the FAQ topic. The original poster CLEARLY did not read the FAQ.
Assuming that you're still on the ICS ROM......it depends on what exactly you flashed but this could be the solution. Flash the correct modified kernel based on what base ICS ROM you flashed(if you don't know then look at settings->about phone). You will then need to flash a correct i777 modem as well(depends if it is Samsung or AOSP based). Without knowing more about what you flashed I can't really help you further.

Dont know what you're talking about, I cant ban people. If a person gets enough infractions then the higher ups ban people because they cant follow the rules. All infractions are looked at then double looked at, so if your friend got banned, then he deserved it.

I think you have the wrong attitude here. Yes, it's good to help people that KNOW how to help themselves. But when they blatantly ignore all the help already available they become more of a nuisance than any real development of this forum. I'm sorry If that seems a bit harsh. But this place was not started to spoon feed people that don't know what they are doing. It's been stated time and time again. This is NOT a help desk forum. Respect the rules, respect the mods and above all READ THE STICKIES!!!

Hey guys! I've lurked around here for a while. I bought a Samsung Galaxy S II for ATT a few months ago after being a longtime iPhone user. Therefore, I'm fairly new to the whole Android tweaking process. I want to install an ICS ROM onto my phone, particularly CM9. I've read the stickies, and am really trying to understand, but at the same time, do not wish to brick my phone. So could someone tell me if this is correct? Or where I'm wrong? Based on what I've read here, to install ICS, I need to...
1. Root my phone as outlined in the thread for that. (The one about not activating the yellow triangle. Since I'm on 2.3.6, I'll need to use "Odin3 One-Click Downloader".)
2. Backup my apps and texts and crap using Titanium Backup to my SD card.
3. Install the proper kernel (where do I find this?) using Mobile Odin.
4. Make sure CWM is active, backup NAND (I assume this is an option?) and flash CM9.
5. Flash Google Apps.
6. Restore my Ti backup.
Thanks guys for the help! And sorry if I'm being stupid/completely misunderstanding.
Read, useless thread is useless

Read, read and read some more. Do a search for Hellraiser as there are no true ICS ROMs for this phone yet, only i900 ports.
If you need to ask questions like this, you are not ready for ICS and ICS is not ready for you.
Since I9100 kernel source code has only been out for a week and we had a bunch of I777-specific **** to fix - while lots of progress has been made things are not quite working yet.
man some people are rude in here....
And others are lazy. Welcome to XDA.
There are a lot of different roms. Usually they rewrite the kernel within the install of the rom. But basically you have the right idea...

Actually, it isn't a legit question as there is not yet a legit ICS ROM for the i777.
You're logic is just plain wrong. What has that got to do with anything, you just like to troll.

Facts are facts, loser. There is not yet a fully-functioning official ICS ROM released for the i777, so any talk of one is premature. The guy admits in the title of this thread that he is a noob and doesn't quite understand. These are exactly the people who should not be flashing ANYTHING, let alone a ROM that is not ready for primetime. But keep on encouraging him and others so that the forum gets filled with people needing help to fix what they messed up. I'm sure you'll be rewarded with tons of adulation for your efforts. Troll indeed.

BS, You simply want spoon feeding.
You have already been told to use Siyah kernel. Plus its made extremely clear in all the other silly "how do I root" topics.

Go to galaxys2root.com and look for your phone model and go to FAQ then you should see "how to root"

He tried things like that, but he has detailed questions also like exactly which firmware he should use. So I wrote him a message so I can tell him exactly what to do and how to do it. Some people like him just want to jump straight into it, and that's what I did. So I know how he feels, and I'm gonna help him out

And yeah, it's easy to mock someone who asks for something wrapped and when he gets it doesn't wanna unwrap it by himself.

Alright, what happens when 145 users want the step by step guide?
You're gonna PM em all? That's a lot of PM....
How about this..there's like 500+ posts about gow to flash siyah kernel, why not guiding him to read one of those by using this magic word: SEARCH.
This is not a online support you know.....

Yea I know, I'm just trying to do a favor for him. He seems like he wants to know every detail before he starts, and even when he learns what things are, he will still be afraid to root the phone. So I just wanted him to get all his questions answered over pm by me so he feels more comfortable and knows its not going to get bricked. I can't do this for everyone, and I know that. Its just something I feel like doing?
