• As usual good phone calls, volume is loud and clear enough, both in speaker and earpiece. Noise Reduction is not available.
• Vibration intensity is solid. Better than previous leaks.
• All connectivities work, BT, WiFi, 3G/H+ etc.
• 480X800 walls work on both Lockscreen and Homescreen. LOL.
• FM Radio works fine.
• The device will now vibrate+ring
• Swype 3.26.92 is present. It's a Beta one afaik. And have problems. 3.25 is way better still.
• 1080P videos play fine. But Video Recorder zooms in automatically while recording 1080P videos. Was it there from first, can't say!
• Camera works fine.
• Touch screen response is good. Scrolling is smooth. It's not fast as LPH, a bit more controlled, thus you need to swipe your finger fast to get the whole page if it's big. Elasticity effect is more prominent than LPH.
• Same email, GMail app (no multi touch).
• Face Unlock works. Thanks to a cool time wasting feature.
• Stock internet browser is as usual uber cool.
• Play Store works fine with downloading.
• GPS locked fine in GMaps. Yet to test with GPS Status. GPS locks work absolutely fine.
• If you're TW launcher user then at least they have reintroduced the loop option in both App drawer and Home screen. And yes, 3D effect from homescreen and app drawer is not there any more, it never was a deal breaker for me anyway.
•Deep sleep works fine as usual.
• Connection with my Desktop is working fine.
• Chrome Beta isn't FC'ing anymore.
••• What SHOULD be FIXED:
• Same pathetic incoming call UI! You gotta be kidding me, who would like a non slider dumb looking answer/reject option? I certainly don't.
• Call logs don't categorise numbers. So NO compact view of an entry. Poor.
Contacts tab is also removed from dialer!
• Other than the default fonts no font is synchronized in built in apps like Calender, Stock email app body, Main texts in Stock browser.
• Developer Option should be removed after doing the final and needed polishing.
• What kind of annoying lock screen is this? Not ICS, Not GB, what the hell?
• Impossible to edit a text in Stock Browser because of weird cursor movement.

***Conclusion***
Well I can't say it's the perfect release Samsung has done, but I think it's OK. There are some minor glitches here and there, but no major one. Still there are things need to be fixed, and I am sure next firmware upgrades will solve some of issues.
UK ICS Ofiicial should be coming soon:
• http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_s_ii_ics_update_to_hit_uk_next_week-news-3971.php
In the meantime please do post your feedback and all the pros/cons, if you've found any. Please DO NOT post that battery life is bad, or some third party apps/games are not working because they are meaningless. ICS is just released and many brands are yet to configure their apps and games to make it ICS compatible.
There are many release, so please also mention which one you've flashed in the PDA/PHONE/CSC format.

Does for anyone Facebook contact pictures work? Installed Facebook account in Social Hub, and the official Facebook app, chose to sync contacts, but no pictures show up in Contacts...
I would never change my samsung galaxy s2 unless for the s3! Samsung is the best with hardware specs but I would never use any official rom cause samsung is the most terrible when it comes to software. I am on the rom on my signature and will wait for miui v4 to get ics

I think these 2 wierd changes have been done to get around Apple's slide to unlock and similar patents. These changes cropped up after Apple tried to enforce these patents against Samsung devices.
Don't sweat about developer option, they are required by someone using GSII for app development. Some of these were present in GB too but under Applications menu and not main settings menu.
I feel this release was a mistake or Samsung is doing some kind of UAT using 3-4 countries.First thing is the version LPQ which looks like it's a development build and not a final release build since those usually have [Year][Month][Build] format which should have made this build LCx and not LPQ.

We will keep all bugs/fixes updated in the first few posts here.
Please, post a bug once. If you have a potential fix, PM me. I will test it and get it added to this post.
Let's not have a repeat of last time. If you can't use the search function, don't use our ROMs.
Also, if it's not posted in one of our posts, it's not an approved mod. We take absolutely zero responsibility for anything that happens.
Known Issues:
The DreamKernel (2.2.1) Packed in RC2 has no bluetooth. - Get the latest here.
There numerous graphical bugs, such as misalignment and colors being off. Please, unless it is affecting the usability of the phone, don't post them.
Pin screen and password unlock screen are sized incorrectly
Some fonts/images may appear a little fuzzy on the home screens. At this point, with the tools available, there isn't much we can do with it.
No Verizon VM notfications. Base ROM issue. It won't be fixed without a new leak.
Sense LWP is scaled wrong. - Ready for RC3
Video Playback buttons are off a little
Car dock needs scaled
Force close in music app.
No speed dial 2. - Ready for RC3
Camcorder only supports up to 14mbps recording. Anything higher will cause it to close.
No .wma Playback.
G-sensor Issue - Kernel Related.
Missing Flickr, Books, and Watch apps. - Mostly fixed for RC3
Bad strings in the Calendar Widget.
Twitter causing FC on phone calls.
Bad string in Gmail settings. - Fixed for RC3
If your screen is staying off, slow to turn back on, general weirdness when coming off a sleep state, try increasing your minimum clock speed. I have the best balance or performance/battery at 368/368 for screen off and 368/1.2 normal.
The Manage applications page is freaking out. See Below.
Patches:
Tranparent Pulldown and 5 Bar signal - This will not work with HTC skins at all. Only Use the stock skin if you flash this. Official BAMF mod.
Disable wake on Volume Courtesy of bp328i.
Looking for Netflix, My Verizon, or VVM? Arcanexvi put this little thread together to keep them all current and working for everyone.
Help! My Manage Applications page is freaking out!
The base leak, for whatever reason, has a serious problem with populating the applications list.
At the bottom of the screen, there is a 2 tone gray and green bar. There is a small animation that appears once everything is loaded above the gray portion.
DO NOT, and I repeat DO NOT, modify any apps in any way shape or form if this has not appeared. Do not force stop, uninstall, clear data, or clear cache when they are flickering. This means the package has not been fully loaded and linked. You might think you are clearing data on Angry birds when in fact it is Accounts and settings.
I got a little overzealous on one last night and ended up having to do a complete wipe and reinstall.[/QUOTE]
Need help setting up Google Voice? Thank RootandBoot for these instructions!
RootandBoot said:
To use Google voice.
Get your new number from Google.
Download the Google voice app, skip the VM setup. Choose to make no calls from Google voice.
On your phone dial *71 and your Google number (that is call forward no answer) put the 1 infront of the area code.
That's it.
When someone leaves a VM it will show on your notification bar.

The RC1 thread was craziness this morning until it was closed. Some people don't know how to use the search feature and were acting like jerks to the devs. Just like in RC1 there will be known issues in RC2 (I'm sure) but people don't take the time to read through the thread. Things were being asked 100 times and too many people were *****ing for no good reason.
I do agree that this is the best ROM out there.
love the rom gentle man, keep up the good work. now just waiting for RC2 to drop.
**** i cant wait for sense 4.0 lol

I want a Galaxy S3, but my finance doesn't allow, so I want to at least have some functions of the Galaxy S3. I started sourcing for apps and tutorials, and yes I found them, but they are distributed everywhere on XDA forums, so I decide to compile them and write a tutorial.
This is a quick tutorial to help S2 users to achieve a level of functionality close to that of GIIIS3, including TouchWiz, Smart Stay, Popup Play, Burst Shots, S Voice, Direct Call, and hopefully more to update in the future. Credits go to all the developers mentioned.
Ripple Live Wallpaper
Still waiting for the S3 lockscreen to be ported onto S2, but we can still get a little fun out of the live wallpaper. There are so many versions out there, but I am so far most impressed with this Galaxy S3 Water Dandelion LWP.
APK is one provided by XDA member pratikverma28 and it comes with editable waves.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1750988
I don't like the quality of the stock wallpaper, so I advise you use your own ones.
By far the best setting I have is as follow:
Quality: High
Refraction quality: Middle
Cycles: 3
Wave weight: 400
Spreading speed: Medium
Fade range: 100
Refractive: 20
Random creation: None
Ripples from CUSTOM ROM:
For i9100 SGS2, AllianceROM by XDA Senior Member Goldieking comes with a S3 Ripple lockscreen. You may want to give it a go.

Most of these are just imitations, not fully equivalent, but the link I provided does deals with missed calls, missed messages as they will be notified.

Well done.

I actually thought about that, but that isn't exactly a lockscreen ripple. Still thinking about adding or not.
Maybe you can try to convince me.

I also wanted to add S-Voice, but I've tried a few, they get Network Errors. Do you have one that doesn't need init.d change?

BAKED Blackbean-3
Flashed and running it , VERY customisable ....even more than a standard AOKP build. Apex launcher as default with a landscape dock as standard.
Loving it so far ! Lil bit buggy but still usable. ( Icons , wallpaper and widgets not in the ROM )

My Initial Thoughts
Well I'm extremely annoyed - I was promised a few bugs (OP) and there are none! Drat! I wiped everything within an inch of it's life, then flashed the ROM followed by inverted gapps. I have not had one force close, no burps, no screen flicker, nada, nothing bad in 6 hours of heavy running.
This ROM is as smooth as , well, teflon - easily the equal of any CM10 I have tried. I noted with pleasure the toggles and particularly the "put the screen to sleep toggle" (I like to save mechanical switches whenever possible) and I can never understand why other devs don't include this very simple toggle.
Truth is, I will be using this as my DD on my GTP3113 - I'm not sure that any significant improvement is warranted.
Thanks much to hjkr and the original dev for this great piece of work.

I'll be sure to pass this over to the dev - I flashed this morning, tinkered with some settings, etc. Haven't tried the inverted apps nor tried to drop Jonsels awesome kernel on it - wanted to let the dev know if anything came across this forum, I'd be more than happy to relay over to him, etc.

The camera is borked - I think this true for CM10 generally (no way to exit app) so I d/l'd Camera JB+ and will use that. Only issue so far.

This rom is really nice. I flashed the inverted gapps and after several hours of steady use I haven't even had a stutter. Kangorade was the very first rom I flashed on this tab and this is the only one I've used since with this many features. Amazing job guys. Best alpha ever...
Sent from my GT-P3113 using XDA Premium HD app
Only major issue I had when I first flashed it was, Superuser was having problems allowing permissions and it froze up once or twice and had to do a hard reboot.But it seems to have settled in now and is playing nice. Froze up a few times initially when using some apps as well Maybe it was a bad flash from AOKP ? who knows ....
Really Impressed with it so far , nice to mess about with and customise that little bit more than you can with AOKP. Pretty cool you can edit build.props ( even though i use Rom Toolbox to do it , but a good feature to have none the less).Themes work well on the ROM.
Apex in landscape is a blessing !!!! Customisable settings menu as well . For the first build its pretty damn good , will be my ROM of choice that's for sure.Cant wait for the next builds to be released.
Only thing that i can fault is when you install an app and the icon is added automatically to your home page it seems to be cut off at the bottom , but deleting the icon and adding it from the app drawer again remedies that problem ( anyone else have that ?) Not sure it that's a problem with Apex as I'm using a theme on it with custom Icons.
On the navigation bar when you add new icons they show as "reflected " in the selection menu but don't seem to work in reality , but I'm making some new ones that you can add pretty much exactly the same as the ones in the ROM with a reflection, anyone wants them send me PM and i will send them over.Got a few more to do but wont take that long.
Apart from that its a sweet ROM ! Loving it big time

You're always left out on these. I was flashing 3100s on my 3113 but obviously mine has no phone function :silly:
I'm digging this so far. Can't seem to find anything wrong except for getting the screen to rotate when using trebuchet. Besides that all is hunky doory. Thanks! :thumbup:

Yup, finally it's out. Though Sony promised us the update 'soon' enough, it wasn't too late either. The forums will be all over active regarding the update and it's time for us to post the reviews and impressions of the update. The following topics (not limited to) can be discussed:
1. Screen
2. Battery
3. Launcher (Even smoother then .307 if available)
4. Any camera changes (Quality wise and speed)
5. Wi-Fi coverage and stability etc.
I have update mine using the Spain FTF without wiping data and I'll post my detailed review soon. Till then and always, this thread is all yours!
My quick first find: Only the status bar is transparent and the dock isn't. Does my eyes have the problem or what? (Updated: It's just a wallpaper problem, reset it and it's all done).
Second: Camera does take 3 secs on an average to initialize, but the consecutive ones becomes noticeably faster. (Lock-screen camera opens a bit faster either)
Third: A nice animation like the screen gently fading off when screen turns off!
Fourth: Wi-Fi is as worse as before!

it's great so far. almost to the point that I don't need a custom rom. The transparent nav bad is cool, while everything else on the whole is a lot smoother. For someone who frequently listen to music like me, the new lockscreen widget is a godsend!
P.S: are you the same prasad on NBR?

Hope you liked the update! My dock is not transparent though and am going for a full wipe now.
It's not me I hope
not sure if its a placebo , but I just unlocked my bootloader backing up TA and installed the CM10.1 and found the color calibration of the screen is really good with CM10 and now I relocked BL to the official 4.2.2 and screen colors are a bit light compared to CM10... anyone else observed this?
Despite system that is only getting better and smoother, some considerations about UI:
1 - The union between the lower action bar with shortcut bar, have a slightly gap, and transparency of lower action bar and transparency with glass of shortcut it's not the same, doesn't fit.
The glass effect os shortcuts is really strange, could be much better.

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
2 - I really have to say something? It's really strange.
3 - this white color and size, including spaces between shortcuts, it's all just strange.
UI could be more (can't remember the world) "one color", i.e. If the "theme" is to be black, than uses all color "as black as possible", not include a white stripe somehow in the middle of the UI.
Camera improves are great, but in intelligent auto is changing too fast os modes, the camera find the type os picture that I want to take but in a blink it reads again a slightly move that I do and changes to another SCN, like soft skin (?).
Wi-Fi still worst than ever.
Battery is OK, not so much improves, and is consuming more in standby so, in other words, worst than last 4.1.2 (253).

The same 4.1 you have.
Hmm... Since updating it doesn't seem to reach 100% when charging. Only goes to 99%. Other then that I can see the difference in the stock launcher, much smoother for sure!

my navbar was also stay in black color after update, but I reset my wallpaper, everything is fine now.
My short review on Official Stock v4.2.2 - 10.3.A.0.423 firmware. I use ftf one as Malaysia not receiving update prompt yet.
Finally! Now it as smooth as my sister ZL which base on same firmware as well.
The smoothness is back, not like previous leak .407 which not so smooth.
Thanks Sony remain .253 screen panel color tune. Current .423 firmware color tune is same awesome.
Thanks Sony for the nice look semi transparent status bar and notification bar.
Camera quality is back! Superior Auto is working fine!
Too dark area, is better use SCN - Night Portrait.
Camera quality is outstanding, by far the best I ever seen
Sample indoor snap using v4.2.2 - 10.3.A.0.423 Superior Auto Mode.
one thing i dont like is the lockscreen: swipe up or down doesnt go away after 3 tries.

I had this problem too but with the leak. I found that it was a wallpaper app that was making it turn black. Soon as I uninstalled it, the problem went. Using zedge now and no problems so far.
Ps. Has anyone managed to charge to 100%?
