Reset flash counter with an app... FINALLY!! (If you're on ICS 4.0+) - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

FINALLY. Reset the flash counter WITHOUT A JIG! No more stupid triangle at boot! =) - WITH AN APP BY CHAINFIRE.
Found this over on the I9100 forums... works great on our device as long as you're running an ICS 4.0+ build. CM9 included.
DO NOT ATTEMPT IF YOU'RE RUNNING GINGERBREAD BASED ROMS - YOU RISK A TOTAL BRICK!!!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1494114
The app is called "Triangle Away" and is available on the Play Store for $2... or for free on the XDA page linked above.
(apparently this was already posted a few weeks back... I searched... Oh wells.)

Have you tested this yourself?

MOD- Please move to Apps/Themes section if deemed necessary... This particular thread could belong in a few spots in the forums... THX

Absolutely. I took the plunge. I'm running CM9 latest nightly, with the UCLC2 baseband, and whatever Kernel comes with CM9...
It also says on the Play Store page that our device (SGH-I777) is in fact supported.
Worked like a charm.

Ok... I'll bite. First we need a working CM, than someone who want to work on MIUI for the s2, it will take time in any case. Don't ask for ETA's, just enjoy your phone without MIUI for now. It took almost a year for the SGS1 and it is still not 100% stable, expect something similar (perhaps a bit better/faster) for this phone.
Next time use search, I think I have already seen a thread like this coming by before.

I'm not trying to be rude, but you seriously shouldn't be flashing anything to your device until you're able to take the 3 minutes it takes to read the OP of the thread dude. It very clearly states that you need to flash gapps along with the from itself.

Bet we can get Jellybean up and running before HTC could. We'll be waiting for Jellybean source as well if we need it. Well at least HTC is being good by updating our phone. Motorola took forever to get us Eclair 2.1 on the Cliq/Dext. We got Froyo 2.2 working by then XD. I know there's a few Cliq owners out there that know what I'm talking about
I'd openly give props to HTC if they give this phone JB.

Indeed. I would be happily surprised especially considering the phone is discontinued. I'd think they wouldn't spend much time/consideration on it. Either way as someone already mentioned XDA developers could already get it up, and looking at the development thread they already have.
yea but remember from ics to jb isnt that big of any update but im glad that jb is heading to the amaze

Triangle away help

Chainfire needs help on twitter with testers for triangle away. Check with him on Twitter. I may test for the Sprint version.
Wait, what? I thought he gave up on the US GS3's? Now he is making them for us?
And you may want to update the thread title to not look like yet another nube looking for triangle away help, this thread is hopefully different.

That's what it says. As far as I'm concerned, it hasn't been tested yet on Tmobile...at least with a counter >0
