I am not sure about Samsung but HTC declared to public saying rooting is legal.. has anyone heard about this before?

if not mistaken inside phone manual or warranty T&C got mention that rooting will void ur warranty. so technically its illegal.

Take care what you wipe. Wipe data (= factory reset) and cache is the same as the one on the outside. Wipe system will wipe off your rom, so you will have no rom to boot into if you restart. So make sure your zip file is ready to flash. Do not wipe boot, sd or emmc.

Frankly I have never wipe system before and have had no issue.

Guide dunno got or not. Well anyway.
1) If you use the CF root method to root, you will have a cwm manager in your app drawer. If not, go flash a cf kernel.
2) Download your ori kernel from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278 (Note: kernel is the one around 10mb or smaller. Please don't go download a rom)
3) Open the kernel file in PC with winrar (or equivalent) until you get a "zimage" file. Extract it out and move to root of your internal sd on your phone.
4) Start cwm manager > select flash kernel > select the zimage and flash. Phone will reboot.
5) Using explorer with root access such as root explorer, file expert, es explorer etc. go to /system/apps. (you need to allow root access first)
6) Allow read/write (this differ from app to app so go explore their options) and delete superuser.apk.
7) Restart

Will it harm your s2? The power output is higher right?

Our batt will only charge at 650mA or 450mA no matter the charger.

I just got Senheiser cx 310 earpiece (retail RM250) today. After I tested it, I feel like the sound quality is just around the original s2 earpiece. Senheiser cx 310 is more comfortable though.

I always thought Samsung S2 earpiece is cheaply made because the sound is so blur. After I tune PowerAmp equalizer, I realise that it is really great one.

Is there a way to tune android equalizer?

Bro, I would suggest you to download another music player from market and try playing the song. If you are able to play it without any problem, then the stock player might been corrupted or suggest you to reflash the ROM again

will try with other music player later.

Hmm., Samsung didn't declared to public saying rooting is legal BUT they sell S2 with unlock bootloader to public and they even sponsored CM7 team with a phone to each of the CM7 member just for modding.

Hi,

I have not used an external battery pack before, so need some advice from you guys.

If I buy something like Yoobao YB-602 External Battery 4800mah , exactly how does it work?


1) When I plug in the SGS2 to this 4800mah External Battery, does it charge the SGS2 internal 1650mah battery inside so that I can unplug it later and use the SGS2?

or

2) I need to constantly keep the 4800mah battery plugged to my SGS2 to use it...like that very "mah fan" to have a heavy hanging battery tagging alone...

Thanks

nicer UI and added feature. i Think touchwized ICS is more or less same as the current. only ICS feature will be added (eg Face Unlock, swipe to kill task)

Taking out memory card have been known to solve the issue for some user. Other options, wait for ICS or send back to samsung.


Added on February 15, 2012, 5:25 pmNot exactly SGS2 related but for android.

There is this app here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1465661
that allows to have different account to login on the same device. Just like windows PC can login to different account. Interesting. smile.gif

I'm thinking of buying a Yoobao external battery powerbank.

Anyone knows whether there are any recommended shops in Digital Mall that sells this?

Thanks
