Galaxy S II CM9 Status update
It has become very silent about cm9 development for the sgs2 over the last few days.
The cause for it is, we’re working hard on a lot of stuff.
We tried to brew our own 3.X based kernel (only basic board support) but did hit a wall. How to debug a non booting device without UART? Seems not possible and i don’t want to disassemble my device.
We tried to hack the samsung kernel without success.
Xplodwild did some cosmetic changes to the camera app to support some additional scene modes and stuff. Besides it, he fights with the video problems we’re having.
I played with the opensource samsung ril, helped on the galaxy sl cm9 port and did some cm9 builds for the galaxy nexus.
I’m not very motivated at the moment to put more hours into it.
Let’s wait for a wonder.
Fancy Bookmarks Sourcecode
Today we released the sourcecode of our Google Chrome Extension “Fancy Bookmarks”.
Maybe someone of my readers might help to improve it or make it compatible to Chromium.
All you need to know is HTML, CSS, Javascript and how to use Google and read docs. ![]()
Fork it, improve it, and don’t forget to send a pull request.
Sourcecode: https://github.com/codeworkx/fancy-bookmarks
Galaxy S II: CM9-01182012
Changelog:
- 2stage boot (now for real)
- cleaned up ramdisk / desamsungized
Download: http://www.multiupload.com/T94222ZA9U
This Build should exactly act like yesterdays.
It is just released to make sure we didn’t screw something up.
Google Chrome Extension – Fancy Bookmarks
Since Google has deleted Fancy Bookmarks three times from the Chrome Webstore, i’m posting it here.
Cause for the deletion?
Lazy users who are not able to read.
How unexpected.
Some Examples:
“I CANNOT UNINSTALL, PLX PLX PLX HELP!!!!!!111111″ -> rate with zero stars -> huh? Wrench -> Tools -> Extensions -> Uninstall. Where’s the Problem? Oh yeah, it’s sitting in front of the keyboard.
“HELP HELP HELP, REPLACES ANY NEW TAB WITH ITSELF!!!! EVIL EVIL!!!” -> rate with zero stars -> huh? see features? it’s stated there.
Sometimes i really want a rating function for users. If a users gets enough “zero-star”-rates -> cut his internet connection forever!

Next steps…
Think we made good progress on CM9 for the SGS2 till now.
To fix the remaining bugs we need kernel sources from samsung and some exynos4 specific bits from origenboard we’re waiting for.
Hope both are releasing sources this month so that we’re done with the SGS2 specific part when CM9 is finished.
You know, CM9 isn’t finished yet. There are a lot of features and tweaks missing. These experimental builds aren’t showing the real potential of CM9.
And if everything is running fine on our SGS2, then it doesn’t mean we’re finished. Our goal is to eliminate most of the closed source parts we have to use at the moment. That’s the part which is the most hard and which i would call “the real work”.
Maybe we can get some time now to work on a Filemanager for CM while waiting for sources. Since i ruptured my ligaments of the right foot at the new years morning while going home from a great party, i’ve some free time this week.
Stay tuned and enjoy the experimental builds.
Happy new Year!!!
I wish all of you a happy new year and healthiness to you and your families.
Hope you’re having a good party with your friends and enjoy starting into 2012.
My magical orb says, that it will be a great year for android.
Let’s celebrate!

No official ICS for Galaxy S!
Dear Samsung Community!
We’ll not tolerate this!
It’s now up to all of you to make Samsung update our Phones! Fight for it!
The Galaxy S is 15 Months old now and for example a contract duration in germany is 24 months. I expect that we’ll get updates for at least 24 Months!
This can’t be serious.
a) Update to 4.x without TouchWiz
b) Release aosp compatible binarys like google does for nexus devices
c) Release full sourcecode!
If they’re not updating the Galaxy S, then i’ll never every buy any samsung phone!
