I'm running the latest FD10 build, and it seems to be smooth, no issues so far with battery life.

 

My biggest concern was the lag I found when texting while using FD05, and it looks like there is some improvement.

FD10 is out, good stuff. So far i have only been flashing modems as i am just waiting for an official ICS build to be released. Keep testing those leaked builds, the more stable they are the closer they are to official release. One can hope that is.

The FD24 "leak" is supposedly the official build of ICS for E4GT, with all the bugs worked out of it. The zipped file to update manually through stock recovery was also leaked.

Here's the review:

 

Here's how to update manually:

 

I also have a question. How safe is flashing the update zip through stock recovery? I'm unrooted and I really want to do this but I don't want to end up bricking my phone.

Watch and read carefully, before flashing.

 

Here is the easier way.

Put phone on download mode, and run it. It works like back to stock GB. Remember it will delete data and apps, it will not delete your photos but make a backup just in case.

 

REMEMBER, nobody is responsible for what you do with your phone, so read carefully until your confident to do it.

 

SFHUB are the best way and the easier, is like one click solution.

Do you think the reason, why Samsung hasn't released ICS for the Galaxy 2 Series is because they are adding features to it? Like they are adding some of the GSIII features to the build? After seeing the press release and launch I would love to have some of those features from the GSIII on the GSII....

That would be great. Although it could just be that they want to get 4.0.4 running correctly on it. According to the FE07 RDF document that was released yesterday, the FE07 build will be running on 4.0.4. I would love to see S Voice and the feature where it stays on when you're looking at it. Is that second one baked into the SIII's software only or is there a special lens in the front camera that features that capability?

Hmm, not sure. I believe it should work, just as long as u have front-facing.....I would love the S Voice too, cause Vlingo is cool, but it's not like Siri or S Voice (way better than Siri.....lol)....

Just an update: the latest leak, FF11, seems to be the final. One of the members of XDA claims that there will be no more RDFs, and another claims it is the last leak. Speculation is that we will see OTA after the SIII gets released, probably Monday the 25th. Calkulin stated that FF11 is final as well.

      Definite usage quirks in hunting down these sites with a rainbow sim in a s24 ultra. Fell into a hole yesterday so sent off to T-Mobile purgatory. Try my various techniques. No Dish. Get within binocular range of former Sprint colocation and can see Dish equipment. Try to manually set network and everybody but no Dish is listed.  Airplane mode, restart, turn on and off sim, still no Dish. Pull upto 200ft from site straight on with antenna.  Still no Dish. Get to manual network hunting again on phone, power off phone for two minutes. Finally see Dish in manual network selection and choose it. Great signal as expected. I still think the 15 minute rule might work but lack patience. (With Sprint years ago, while roaming on AT&T, the phone would check for Sprint about every fifteen minutes. So at highway speed you could get to about the third Sprint site before roaming would end). Using both cellmapper and signalcheck.net maps to hunt down these sites. Cellmapper response is almost immediate these days (was taking weeks many months ago).  Their idea of where a site can be is often many miles apart. Of course not the same dataset. Also different ideas as how to label a site, but sector details can match with enough data (mimo makes this hard with its many sectors). Dish was using county spacing in a flat suburban area, but is now denser in a hilly richer suburban area.  Likely density of customers makes no difference as a poorer urban area with likely more Dish customers still has country spacing of sites.

      Mike if you need more Dish data, I have been hunting down sites in western Columbus.  So far just n70 and n71 reporting although I CA all three.

      Good catch! I meant 115932/119932. Edited my original post I've noticed the same thing lately and have just assumed that they're skipping it now because they're finally able to deploy mmWave small cells.
