****The Official Samsung Galaxy S II Thread***

I thought by flashing firmware to latest version it automatically debrands? For example o2 phones only go up to KE2 currently and having read on here that if you flash manually to KE7 it will debrand. So there should be no need to go through the debranding process before flashing to latest firmware?

correctamundo. I've flashed to KE7 from o2's KE2 - it's totally unbranded. I don't think there's a branded KE7 firmware yet.
 
Glad I went for this over the Sensation in the end, nothing more to add that hasn't already been said here - fantastic phone with a gorgeous screen. The only problem is that since it so light I end up flinging it around as I am more used to the weight of my old HD2! Looking forward to seeing some custom roms :)
 
I have it lol I want an icon not a slider?

I've got a 2 slider setup at the moment; one unlocking, one going to messages, but it looks a bit busy.

...Why not have one slider going to 2 or 3 things. I have one slider going to camera, nav and the unlock aswell.
 
Gf picked up her sgsII this week and on a number of occasions her touchscreen just becomes totally unresponsive. She has to use the home button and then it usually starts responding. Which is a pain as it takes you off whatever you are doing.

Anyone else had this problem? It's on KE7 btw.

Try factory resetting the phone, if it does it at stock then i would say that maybe it has a fault.
 
Zeam is very battery light comparatively :)
I remember reading a blog of someone with a SGS1, think he mentioned was getting a few days with a stripped install and touchwiz, 4 with ADW and was expecting to break 6/7 with Zeam.
 
I don't believe that for a second.

Its only going to be possible to get those times with background data and sync disabled and even then its a stretch.
 
Here are my screens:

The Missed Calls, SMS and Email icons on the lock screen show missed/unread numbers and take you straight to the application when clicked :)

What applications were needed to make the default phone look like this? I definitely want battery percentage and am also wondering whether your gmail icon can show unread counts.

Apps used look like launcherpro, beautiful widgets and widgetlocker at a guess. At least, all of the above is possible with those three apps.

The trick is to find the right plugins for them on XDA.

danger pheonix: apps? in particular the calendar widget and the weather under the clock. also wallpaper

Right, here is a breakdown of everything on the screens (Launcher Pro):

Lock Screen
- Created with Widget Locker
- Used this theme
- Minimalistic Text widget for the text
- SMS Unread Count widget for the missed/unread items
- Icons for SMS Unread Count created with Simple Text

Left Screen
- Mini Info widget at the top
- 2 x Switch Pro widgets set to transparent at the bottom

Centre Screen
- Fancy Widget for the time and weather
- Icons from Custom Launcher Icons
- Apart from the two left most icons, the rest are folders managed by Smart Shortcuts

Right Screen
- Pure Grid Calendar


Here is a shot showing unread counts on the lock screen (luckily I just got some texts and emails):

Is there any way to make it so that it doesn't unlock when you press the home screen on widget locker? Also, is there a way to make the widget locker background different to that of the home screen?
