miui-ics-rom-galaxys2-i9100-i777-t989

How to Disassemble/Assemble Galaxy S2! [Dissect TEARDOWN]

howto-disassemble-galaxys2

If you ever need to replace a broken screen or other parts on your Galaxy S2, it’s very easy to disassemble and assemble your Galaxy S2.

For a whole month, my screen on my Galaxy S2 i9100 was flickering a bit and I took my Galaxy S2 apart to fix the issue. It turns out one of the LCD cables became loose and upon re-connecting them, my phone was back to 100%.

And while I was at it, I took a video of me disassembling and assembling the Galaxy S2 i9100. But the process is nearly identical for all Galaxy S2 series including the SGH-i777, SGH-T989, and the

How to Dual-Boot ROMs AT&T Galaxy S2 SGH-i777!

dual-boot-rom-att-galaxys2-sgh-i777

Looking to dual-boot two ROMs on your AT&T Galaxy S2 SGH-i777? Here’s a video tutorial showing you how to do that. Dual-booting two ROMs can have great benefits, that you can run a stock-like TouchWiz ROM and AOKP ICS ROM side-by-side. For people on the go (like myself) who need to test out several ROMs on the go, this feature really saves time and headache of backing up and restoring different ROMs.

You will need to run ICS ROMs though and install Siyah kernel for both ROMs you run.

Resurrection ICS ROM for AT&T Galaxy S2 SGH-i777!

resurrection-ICS-rom-galaxys2-i9100

For AT&T Galaxy S2 SGH-i777, you can “hellraise” a GT-i9100 ROM to work on your AT&T Galaxy S2. Since both phones are nearly identical except modem and menu buttons, it makes it easy to interchange ROMs. You can look for hellraiser tools on XDA if you are interested in doing this yourself.

Resurrection ICS ROM is also now available for your AT&T Galaxy S2 via Hellraiser. This ICS ROM is fully functional just as the original i9100 version, the only bug is that the screen randomly turns on by itself in sleep mode.

omega-ics-rom

Here’s another solid ICS ROM for your Galaxy S2 i9100 that you can try if you want to stay more stock with TouchWiz with a ton of features, great performance and battery life over stock ICS.
