Hi guys! Long time didn't follow this thread edi. So is there any chance of Jelly Bean coming to our phones?

I fully recommend you to update to Ice Cream Sandwich. When I was using Gingerbread last time, my phone (I9100G) used to hang at least once a day, which was really annoying. After the update, whether you believe it or not, my phone HAS NEVER hang not even once.

hi all! I just rooted my s2g. any recommended things to do with my phone after that? other than custom roms ?

Thanks all, for the suggestions!

I have a few questions regarding rooting.

What is a firmware and its uses? Why is there a need to flash it?

What is a modem?

Thanks!

saw this link in an XDA thread ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1583091 )

It's the frequently asked questions about cm9. when i go to the page, there's nothing there except for the sentence "Content is available under GNU Free Documentation License 1.3 or later."

What is the GNU thingy?

any sifus out there that can explain? :)Thank you!

Is CM9 and CM10 now stable for daily usage?

i'm really curious, is it (CM 9 and CM10) really super smooth compared to stock ICS? I've seen videos, but I would like to hear more from fellow users here. for me, stock ICS is good enough. Smoothness as in the graphics?

Also, I heard that we can't restore system apps with TB (for CM10 and CM9). What are system apps? Are they the ones highlighted in red when in TB?

Thanks!!

so would it be foolish of me to say that CM9 is equally smooth as ics? assuming i dont install any other kernels if i use CM9.

oops. I'm sorry. I mean comparing cm9 and stock, official ics. is it possible to compare these two ?

Otterbox ! I dropped my previous phone quite a number of times. With s2, i dare not risk it.

What is the purpose of flashing modems? Can i not flash it and use the current one?

I see. thanks! I've rooted my phone and i'm planning to flash cm9 later. i have used TB to backup my apps ( not including system apps, of course). the steps for flashing include doing data wipe and factory reset. my question is, if i do that, then will TB be wiped as well? how do i re-install it after flashing?

ok. Thanks a lot! one last question before i flash, how do i unroot my phone if i want to claim my warranty?

Where do i get it?

I managed to flash CM9 into my phone. Problem is, how do i mount my sd card?

I'm having a problem after I flashed cm9. My phone is unable to go into deep sleep. Partial wakelocks include media scanner. Any solutions?
Battery life is really important to me.

Where do I kill it? It's not in settings>apps>running. Also, is it possible to under clock and under volt cm9?
Where do I check my running apps other than at settings? In stock ics before this, I checked it at task manager. Thanks!

what steps do i need to do in order to UC and UV ? need certain kernels?
