Flashed CM10

 

Buy on AliExpress.com

[Juve Fanatico]

Tried the experimental CM10 for the S2 for a couple of days, but it gave me some trouble with a few apps.

Back to CM9 nightlies for now.

Which phone do you have?

 

[JCK]

Sheik, I need your help for rooting my IS.

It has 2.01.0001 hboot and that is not a straight forward procedure.

Seems like you'll need to downgrade to HBOOT 1.13.0000 and then run the Revolutionary tool to S-OFF the phone and be able to install a custom recovery. This thread seems to be the one:

I don't know where to ask this, so I'll do it here. My current phone is broken and I need a new one. I have narrowed it down to two choices: The Droid Nexus and the Droid Galaxy S3. I know that both of them are great phones, but are there any major problems with any of them that I should be aware of or anything? I've never had a smart phone either but I'm going to go with one of these two.

With the Nexus you are guaranteed upgrades as soon as Google releases them.

What sort of upgrades? Like fixing bugs?

Yes, but also if the OS ha a whole receives an upgrade you'lll be one of the first to get it. Such as Ice Cream came out, the nexus's got the first official updates

But not all the Nexuses got the update. I don't think the original Nexus got it. So at some point in the future, even the Galaxy Nexus won't get updates.

Then again, that's why we got the mod community.

 

[AFL_ITALIA]

So go with the Galaxy 3 you're saying?

 

[Sheik Yerbouti]

So go with the Galaxy 3 you're saying?

You're better off buyin the Galaxy Nexus. But I suggest you read reviews of both phones and see which one suits your needs better.

@Sheik Yerbouti HTC One S or Samsung Galaxy II ?

@Sheik Yerbouti HTC One S or Samsung Galaxy II ?

I will go for the Samsung.

 

[Sheik Yerbouti]

Yesterday I compiled CM7 from source.

Dude, that's awesome!

@Sheik Yerbouti HTC One S or Samsung Galaxy II ?

If the HTC One S you're getting is the Snapdragon S4-version instead of the Snapdragon S3-version, then get that. Or else, get teh S2.

One way to identify this is to check the speed of the processor on the box. If it says 1.5Ghz, then it's the S4. If it says 1.7Ghz, then it's the S3. DO NOT get the S3 version of the One S.

If the HTC One S you're getting is running the Snapdragon S4-version instead of the Snapdragon S3-version, then get that. Or else, get teh S2.

One way to identify the processor type is to check the speed of the processor on the box. If it says 1.5Ghz, then it's the S4. If it says 1.7Ghz, then it's the SGS II. DO NOT get the S3 version of the One S.
