Wow. My AT&T Nexus S still hasn't gotten ICS. I am so disappointed/frustrated with Google about this whole debacle.
Still doesn't work on my unlocked ATT Xperia Play. I will try a TMo HD2 tomorrow.
Wah? I thought all versions of the Nexus S had ICS by now? I'm pretty sure at least the Tmobile one does..
Hm, weird. Just to test my settings, I went back to the old APN settings I have for MMS, and tried internet and it goes straight to "cannot be displayed" page. The only difference between the 2 is the APN.
The free one is wap.voicestream.com while my MMS one without net is epc.tmobile.com
I change the APN type to "default,Internet+MMS" and now it work. But I think only port 80 is working. Either ebay nor youtube app works. I will play with it a little more tomorrow. You should cross post this to the prepaid thread.
Didn't even know there was a prepaid thread, do you have the link? Maybe you should post it =P
What is your current plan? I'm still scared that T-mobile will charge me for whatever I use. I'm going to just use a little bit and then check my bill next month..

Anyone have an idea when ics will be released for the AT&T Samsung galaxy s2?
I have a google number forward to a $30/m walmart 5GB TMo prepaid number and a regular preapid TMo number.
TMo can't charge you since you can buy a sim card from them for $2. There is nothing they can do about it.
If this thing works for the next few months I will stop using the walmart plan and only use the prepaid 10 cents/minute number.
The prepaid thread is here.

Is there any way to stream stuff from Google Music (Android app) to a network device (DLNA, UPnP)?
I can do it for YouTube videos, local pictures and videos, and other mp3s by using Twonky, but would love to do it for my Google Music via the native app.

summer if are lucky or by the end of the year... >_<
Ah, well I'm using the trick on an actual T-Mobile plan, so I'm thinking they can detect and charge for the data. Well see next month hahaI have a google number forward to a $30/m walmart 5GB TMo prepaid number and a regular preapid TMo number.

Getting my S2 in 2 hours, pretty excited (first smartphone wooo).
And ICS is out today? Oh god, I'm going to be fiddling with this all day.

It's pretty much guaranteed to have a 720P screen and a quad-core version of the GS2 processor I think. A lot of rumors say it'll have >1GB RAM but I don't know what the point of that would be.

Why are people using 'free' data....?
You would guess right. Touchwiz is basically unchanged. I guess there are improvements under the hood.

Titanium Backup now supports Box (formerly box.net) in addition to Dropbox.
Wait a minute? Are you telling me that I could use this to back up my game saves between my tablet and phone?
Looks like I'm getting the paid version

TMobile has had the port 80 open for any URL with "tmibile" string in the URL for the last few years. This is nothing new. The only difference is you can go to a URL without the "tmobile" string.
There is a sticky thread on howardforum for years, and the thread is thousand of posts long. If TMobile wanted to close it, it would have been closed a long time ago.
I wouldn't even call it useful. You get port 80 browsing. You get no gmail, no RSS, no remote access, no google market, no google map. It's fucking charity data. It's no useful.
file all those in the bgr thread
So are you saying the 1080p screen rumor is also true? I call bullshit.
cause it's in the air.
I'm going to start designing the Twitter app sometime this week that I might make . I have a question:
- What exactly makes a good Twitter app?
I've seen complaints about the other Twitter apps and don't really see any glaring problems with them (maybe because the only thing I do with them is tweet). If you were to make a Twitter app, what would you like to see?
Hopefully I can do this >__> Making it will just be a hobby though so if I do eventually get around to it, it might take a long time to make.

you will want to make love to it
I dunno. I swear by Plume myself, as the only problems I really have with it (i.e. the way it handles retweets by default) can be adjusted through the settings. I particularly love the way the widgets for Plume work.
On the other hand, you have Bboy AJ, who I believe has repeatedly asked someone to make a better Twitter app than Plume, so maybe you should start by asking him.

Look at Tweetbot on iOS. It just feels nice. Gestures control a lot and they all mostly feel nice and slick. Each is accompanied by a satisfying sound.
Plume is alright but it feels clunky, bloated. Trends show up in a bubble pop up through a menu function. That's ridiculous.

I use Seesmic. No drag to refresh plus having the refresh button at the top of the page irritate me.
Unfortunately those navigation buttons are controlled by the OS and not by the launcher itself. AOKP (Kang Project ROM) Milestone 4 has the beginnings of navigator hiding. Their currently system has power button menu controls to turn the navigator on and off and there's quick controls on the power button menu.

Guys I want to use cyanogenmod 9 on my s2 i9100, I have no clue what to do its on stock at the moment, after looking at the official ics update, it looks really ugly will I lose anything while rooting? and what is the most stable version is there a guide somewhere and can I still buy stuff from the store?
That's going to fall strictly into the custom rom territory. You can't do that with just a launcher.
We weren't supposed to make love to the phones before?

How often do you guys restart your phones? Mine seems to lock up and pull the battery if I don't restart after 4 or 5 days.
Not for a log time.. I did back when roms and kernels were not as stable as they are now
Extremely Un.
Had a scoops in the past but he puts bullshit stuff out there mainly to get site hits.
You will lose nothing when rooting. However when installing CM9 you will most likely have to wipe your data first, meaning you will lose all your apps+data+contacts. Of course contacts will be saved via google, and you can use Titanium Backup to restore apps+data (not system data). You can still buy from the store. Check out xda forums for instructions on how to root.
Almost never.

Has anyone installed the Spike Pure ICS ROm on their GS2? How is it?
Coming to more I believe
edit: those APN settings from yesterday aren't working anymore...I switched to a different galaxy s2 and now its giving me the web2go page. BOOOO nevermind. Had to cycle through other APN and stuff.
But damn, Gmail doesn't work, like tino said. So this is considered some lame, charity data? Not cheating the system or anything?
So Samsung claimed Apple is releasing a 7.8" iPad by the the end of the year. This make me really happy.
Too many Android tablet makers are ignoring the 7" market. The iPad mini should bring much better accessories, including an aftermarket hardware keyboard to the 7" market. Although I still prefer somebody hack the PS vita and then port Android to it.
