Brand new to this device - Galaxy S II General

I just got my phone today and there is so much info to take in. im not new to rooting though but some questions.
Why is there an "old" andriod development and a regular one?
my phone is on 2.3.6. So was wondering if anyone could point me to a thread to get this thing completely rooted?
Phone im coming from is the mytouch 4g slide which has no where near the development this has. other phones I've owned and rooted: sensation 4g, G2, mytouch 4g, galaxy s and that's about all I can remember.

Also please do search and read.

Indeed, search and read in the forum for your actual device. Your signature says you have an SGH-T989. That's a different device than for this forum. Firmwares and kernels are NOT compatible between the two due to those differences.
SGH-T989 forum.

Thanks for the help I really appreciate it didnt know there was a difference between the galaxy s2 line up....good to know

There's probably value in making a nexus s for sprint forum. I hope the mods consider it.

yea well doesnt seem to be happening. so hopefully we can at least get someone to make a nice sticky that has helpful links to lead em to their correct model
It doesn't need a seperate forum. Any 2.3.4 based rom will work on any version of the Nexus S. The 4G code as already been merged into the 2.3.4 ota that is going out right now.

[CLOSED] GT-I9100G forum

Why is der no forum for samsung galaxy GT-I9100G ???

I too have a I9100g version. Can some one guide me if there is a forum us.

I think it would be a great idea to put G users into their own forum... The G is an unusual device with no connection to other I9100 units other than name. (Stupid Samsung - their name-overloading shenanigans piss me off.)
It's just like the Skyrocket needed its own forum separate from the I777. Right now it's hard for the G users to find discussion specific to their device because it's buried in the I9100 forum, of which almost nothing is actually relevant.
It is because it isnt a popular device. If you look in the general section you'll see that you need to vote for a device to get its own forum. I suggest you all go over there and vote for it if u want your own forum.

[Q] Is this the right Forum for me?

I am getting the EVO Design 4G today, and I am wondering if there is a specific forum for that particular phone, or if this is it. Thanks to any help you can give me.
This is not it, sorry. There will be many differences with your hardware/software. You try Googling Evo design xda forum?
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
No this is the Supersonic: Evo4g forums. The Evo Design 4g AKA Kingdom phone does not have its own forums on XDA. No roms here will work on design because of hardware difference

hehe - did you?
It wouldn't have turned up much. There is a guide to rooting it (and similar HTC devices) under the general Android hacking area, and in fact that thread is mostly populated by Design 4G users, but there is no dedicated forum on XDA for that device as noted above.
I seriously considered getting that phone for awhile and the lack of a big development community was the main reason I decided to stay with my trusty old EVO 4G...

No, I didn't. It's not my device. But the question wasn't intended as a smart ass remark. It was serious.

Installing Darky's Rom onto the S3....

Hi guys i've had my S3 for a couple months now and love it and have not regretted making the change from the 4s in the slightest. i had a I9000 before i got an s4 and had darky's rom installed on there and want to put it onto my s3 also as it seemed to up the performance and speeds a little. but im a complete noob when it comes to these things could anyone link me to a step by step guide on how to flash my s3 with also download links?
I did watch the video before registering i searched for installation guides with the s3 but i only found guides for the original S so i made a new thread
thanks in advance for any help.
First of all, this isn't for the international version of the S3.
Second, if you really do own an I747 and not the I9300, then it is impossible at the moment to flash international ROMs to this device until someone ports it.

Well, there's a separate forum dedicated to the i9300 so that's that.
You might want to check this out, Samsung Galaxy SIII I9300 main page.
And Galaxy SIII I9300 Android Development which is include ROM, Kernel, MOD :fingers-crossed:
You are welcome here Seany.
The point is we might not have the answer you want, so the link on top will provide the best place for you :good:

Any ROMS Work With the N7 HSPA+ ?

Do any of these ROMS work with the new Nexus 7 HSPA+ ? I was about to try one out then realized the HSPA+ is slightly different than the wifi models...
Thanks!
