Help| ICS DOMINATION THEME - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone
I really want to install this theme Im running the latest ICS STUCK ROM XXLPQ (4.0.3)
Does it work on this rom ?
I need to root my SGS2 for it ?
thanks in advance

HI
from your post my advice will be not to flash this theme!!!!!!!!
what is stuck rom? never heard of it. is it here on xda? please post a link to it.

Stock rom, no you need a deodexed stock rom. Use the Wanam lite stock deodexed.
Also this should be in Q&A section.

first of all thanks for the fast reply
I have downloaded the Stock rom from Samfirmware.com
here is the download link : http://hotfile.com/dl/149515233/24a7b72/I9100XXLPQ_I9100OXXLPD_XEH.zip.html
I really hate how TouchWiz destroy the ICS on the SGSII because of that I want to install the ICS DOMINATION THEME and here is the post : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1334922
now for the questions :
Do I need to root my Device first ?
Does it work at my Rom ? (XXPLQ 4.0.3 Stock)

No it will not work!
Like the guy in the post above you said, if you bothered to read, is that you need a deodexed rom.
Go to the Android development section (not original) and look for Wanam's deodexed stock ROMs. They must be deodexed! This is important.
Sent from my GT-I9100

but after I installing the wanam rom I will not need to be rooted ?
and simply flash the Theme in the recovery after it ?

New leak! I9100CMLRA Android 4.0.4

Hi folks, here is the latest leak available for SGS II. CMLRA. Android 4.0.4.
Enjoy
Flash with odin in PDA
Flash at your own risk, the usual warning.
Mirror :
ok, working mirror this time
Mirror 1
Mirror 2
As usual, if you find this usefull, use the thanks button !
and LOL @ 2nd post saying things before the mirrors are even out.
Just so that you guys know, this isn't leaked by Samsung and is in fact CM9, that's why the name CMLRA. This is pretty misleading for the users since you don't say it clearly in this thread.
Runs perfectly on my SGS2 with its touchwiz goodness.
@OP: Have you tested this on your S2? can we get some screenshots/info etc?
What is this? please some info..thnx
This is CM9 Resurrection Edition for use with Odin from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1419102
Official or not
Flashing with risk
will you explain CM9 with TW and flash with Odin ? I never see that .

Please upload the stock phone and contacts apk for LPG odexed

I need those 2 files, or if anyone has a cwm flashable zip, that would be even better!
Thx!
You can't reflash rom
Do as cool-face suggests, or you can look at wanam's Unbranded Odexed and Deodexed Stock ROM thread (which is in the Android Development section), download the version you are looking for, and extract them yourself.

[Q] RTL Arabic on S2 i777

my first post, please don't flame (too hard).
I've helped others with GPS and Play store glitch after jelly bean update, and now looking for some help.
My wife has an S2 i777 and did SIM unlock to use with T-MO.
It's GB 2.3.6. The PDA is i777 UCKK6.
I'm looking for RTL with Arabic language support. I've done weeks of reading and I found this nice thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1292841 But that ONLY supports UCKH7
This phone is not rooted.
Looking for noob instructions for RTL arabic support.
Thanks in advance.
1. Upgrade to ICS and you should have proper Arabic support sans keyboard - AFAIK Hebrew/Arabic/all RTL language support was first introduced on ICS. When on ICS, download any Arabic keyboard from Play Store and you should be good to go.
2. Or move to deodexed GB ROM (any custom ROM) and run madmack's Arabic patcher (google it and you'll find it). It should work on any deodexed GB ROM, since it's based on Hebrew patcher that decompiles/recompiles the framework - but it's also the reason why it can't work on stock odexed ROM.
I suggest option 1.
Thanks Jack.
1) I heard that ICS was a complete failure and has bricked many i777 S2's. Are you saying to root and use custom ROM as opposed to the ATT update?
2) found what deodexed means... www wugfresh .com /guides / deodex/
Do you have any experience with the i777 S2 and ATT ICS OTA update?
Thanks
1. ICS is generally a better system on this phone IMHO. I do suggest moving to it through custom ROMs rather than through stock official upgrade - stock-based custom ROMs offer stock stability with customization options, and EMBRYO 5.4 is a good ROM that I'm happily running. Not sure how relevant the infamous "brickbug" is, but it's irrelevant for most custom ROMs.
If anyone more familiar with "brickbug" can chime in - you might get a better picture. I got mine with Gingerbread, installed TWRP recovery and flashed custom ROM about 1/2 hour after I got the phone, so I have no experience with stock GB/ICS.
2. "Deodexed" means - not odexed. With Google help:
http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/what-is-odex-and-deodex-in-android-complete-guide/
Stock ROMs are always odexed, so you'll have to move to a sort of custom ROM anyway. And if you do - you might as well go a better route than staying on GB.
Since I'm the kk6 (2.3.6) GB, do I need to downgrade factory image first in order to root? Or is there a tool out there to root and put a custom ROM (ICS or JB custom ROM).
Thanks
It's not one tool, it's more.
Read the stickies, they contain rooting guides. See that you understand what you're doing before proceeding.
Thanks Jack. I was just wondering if I needed to downgrade GB version first.
No, you don't need.
Just to let you know, there is a thank button to thank the user that helps you.
It's used a lot here on XDA.
You can thank 8 a day.

[Q] Stock theme on custom ROM

Hi i have just bought a galaxy s3 and i would like to put it a custom rom but i like the original samsung theme. I have seen a lot of customs rom on the forum but i feel kind of lost and i dont know which one should i choose, any reccomendation, suggestion or something else?
Thanks

It's funny, because everyone wants to change the stock theme to AOSP.
To keep the original theme, flash one of the Samsung based ROMS (Android development subforum), they'll have the version letters in the title (the current version is LL5)
Many roms have a stock theme .
Read the roms description first .
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1566
A clue a rom beginning with o has a stock theme and so do many others .
