I know this might be old news, but this came out today. A leak to the ICS 4.0 for AT&T GS Note.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1500186
Nice for them but IIRC we can't run Gnote roms. Although, this does mean that a version for our device MUST be on the horizon.
It's got the exynos processor, right?
I thought the English version processor was changed to ours?

Yes, it does have Snapdragon.
Im pretty sure that is the leak for the Chinese version of the phone, which is not compatible with the European version. And that has the 1.4 gHz Exynos
i don't understand how there are so many roms leaked for ATT version of s2 and now there is a rom leaked for Note which just got released in US. Why not for t-mobile s2?

All signs point to Samsung not having worked on this device until the finished the international S2.
This is for inter version. On another note xboarder gave his ics rom preview to skyrocket forum and I must say after flashing it I can't wait. Even tho alot of things aren't working it is just beautiful and fast. Link is in our general section. Also works on our device.
You didn't bother to watch the video at the bottom of the first post...did you?
Thread Moved To AT&T General​
Please post all relevant information to the us note in the AT&T note section please!​

Where did it say it is for AT&T Note? If past history told us anything, AT&T ROMs have different button layouts than internation version. Not to mention the radio chips and CPU/GPU are completely different.
First post is misleading.. and the att sgsii doesn't have any ics leaks.

OP is clueless to say the least. This thread should have been closed instead of moved.
I am confused.
I bought myself a brand new Galaxy S2 in white color.
On the box it says GT-i9100. Color: Ceramic White. Made in Vietnam.
When I turn it on it says I9100, not i9100g.
So I want to flash ICS but I am a bit afraid as I am not sure whether it's i9100 or i9100G.
Does the i9100 exist in white? It's from Vodafone Germany, and comes with lots of bloatware.
Go to settings and then about, will tell you the model number.

Given everything else you've mentioned, if it says "I9100" on the sticker under the battery on the phone chassis, I think you can safely assume it's an I9100. Colour has nothing to do with it. For example, in Australia, carriers here sell the I9100 & I9100T and both are available in white.
Edit to add - Rizur is correct, if it has I9100 in settings then you've definitely got an I9100.

Thanks a lot. Well, it is a GT-i9100. So I think it's safe and I will flash through Odin to get rid of all the crapware it has.
Is there any ICS custom rom you recommend? (For battery and performance purposes) Or should I just go stock?
Thanks a lot!

Thanks! Well, I knew it all along, it's a I9100. But I just was confused.
There are many custom ROM's to choose from. But make sure you back up everything and read lots and lots.
You get Samsung based ROM's and Android Open Source Project ROM's, read up on differences and what can be expected from each ROM, including pros and cons.
Good luck!
Edit: if you already know all that^, then I suggest HyDrOG3N -ICS, I'm really enjoying it

Thanks I will try it out. First I'm going to install the stock version and if it's laggy, I will try the one you pointed out!
As I am on a Galaxy Nexus with AOKP, I wanna see how ICS stock performs on the Galaxy S2. It's not for me but for my brother, so I still want it to perform well

Stock looks very much like gingerbread but plenty of themes available.

I don't know about gt-i9100g, but I'm using SHW-M250S (korean gs2) now.
as i know, there is three type of korean gs2, m250s/k/l. s/k is for gsm, and l is for cdma.
m250s/k is i9100+nfc+dmb(korean tv broadcast)+some pit difference.
if u just flash pit for i9100 on m250s/k, you can flash all roms for i9100 on m250s/k.

And the battery
Sent from my GT-P7510 using xda premium
I don't know about the Korean variant of the galaxy s2, but the major difference between the GT-I9100 and the GT-I9100G version is the SoC. Exynos (made by samsung) is present on the normal (non g variant), and has a lot of dev support because it is the first international variant. The G version has Omap4 SoC, the same as galaxy nexus, which makes it more dev friendly as Omap4 is more easy to develop. However, the G version has 1 GHz processor, not 1.2 (like the non G), tho users are very happy with the G version. It all depends on what you plan to do. If you want to flash AOSP (such as CM9/10) ROMs, you'd be better off buying the G (version) since developers are now leaning towards that. Both phone have custom ICS and JB ROMs, so you don't need to be worried about that.
As far as the battery is concerned, I'm happy with my S2, I can easily spend a day using it with normal use. I plug my phone in at night and plug out after waking up, and use the phone for the whole day without charging again. I guess you could say its reasonable for such a smartphone. I don't know about battery life on the G version, though.
Both phones are alike in physical appearance, and the way to distinguish between them is just the from the bootscreen or written behind the battery on the phone, and on the box ... maybe someone else may tell you more about it.
Sorry for the long post

People in India are not happy about getting the g model in the box when they have paid for the non g model.

the i9100 has the dual core exynos 4210 with mali 400 gpu specs on sheet its faster than omap 4430 , but u wont tell the difference ! the i9100g has a better battery life and is powered by sgx 540 but its overclocked from 233mhz to 384mhz other than that they are the same ! plus i noticed that my i9100g comes with 11gb storage only not 16! which is kinda weird
Dude, give up on the idea and just get a Nexus 4 if you want Jelly Bean.
Don't even think about getting any other Android, it just won't be the same as getting the updates straight from the big G.
Good job necroing a 12 mth old thread

How exactly would any of us know? If you've searched and couldn't find an answer, then there probably isn't one.

The general public is scared of messing with their phone. They don't wanna risk messing it up. So they suck up the official updates, realize how bad they are, come here complaining about how bad they are,then realize they should've just flashed a custom ROM in the first place.
We will most likely never see an official update for our phones. ATT has already EOL the device and beyond the 4.0.4 update have no plans on updating the device any further.
After the last update from ATT, i would never buy an ATT phone again. It felt like they wanted all of us to upgrade, go through lot of pain and break our contracts(and probably get into a new one too). Most of us who upgraded were out of the 1 year warranty period as well. Not sure what ATT was thinking when pushing the upgrade.

All the carriers do the same thing. This is the main reason I only get unlocked devices and have done so for the past 10 years or so.
I've got a Galaxy Note SGH-I717M from Bell Mobility. I wanna get rid of the Samsung bloatware, load up fresh 4.3 and change the modem software so that it works on Wind Mobile. How the heck do I do this? :fingers-crossed:

I've heard of people doing what I described, so there's gotta be a way...
4.3 doesn't exist for the SGH-I717 in fully functioning form yet. The only "release" I've seen was from JamieD and he pointed out right up front that the sound did not work on that ROM. I flashed it and ran it for a while and it was very smooth but not ready yet. Won't be long though so hang in there a little while, there are a lot of us waiting for 4.3! :laugh:
4.3 isn't a huge update anyways lol

Ok cool, so what do I do to upgrade to the latest stable ROM and change the modem software so that it works on Wind?
When you say "stable", it can be interpreted in different ways.
The absolute rock-steady stable will be stock-based ROMs, like blackjelly and Padawan.
If you mean "stable enough" for a daily use, you can use any of the 4.2.2 roms. You will have to research and read to find out what is working and what isn't. For me personally, I am using uXylon rom with Uber kernel. Mostly stable, except reboots occasionally.
And you will have to find a modem and flash it separately. I believe you will need to flash a t-mobile modem, but I am not sure. You can search the forum to see if anyone else has done it before. I am sure it was asked before.
thought i would chime in since some people are giving extremely bogus information and should just not comment.
the only difference between the Telus i717d, Rogers i717r, Bell i717m and the ugly one of the bunch the ATT i717*I HATE PHONE BRANDING!* is the bloat loaded onto the phone and the firmware/baseband versions
every single rom in this section will work on every single i717, it may react different on some as not all phones are made identical but in everyday terms they are the same phone...
even the modems are interchangeable between all of them, i run an unlocked att i717 with telus modem, before that i had an i717m and ran telus modem.
