  • The First Custom ROM For The Samsung Galaxy S II Is Now Available For Download

    The original Samsung Galaxy S had a very strong developer community behind it churning out excellent ROMSs like Darkys, looks like the same is gonna happen with it’s successor. pulser_g2 from XDA has released the first custom ROM for the Galaxy S II called the VillainROM 1.0, don’t be confused by the image above the ROM shall be fully stock.The ROM is based on XWKE2, the developer describes it as:

    It’s fully deodexed, and I’ve resigned all the Samsung and stock applications with a new key-set, so that it’s much easier to make modifications to the apps in future. Villain Tweaks was a project of mine to “test the water” for modifying the apps in the SGS 2 ROMs. I hit issues I couldn’t get around, since the pre-installed apps were signed by Samsung.

    Do note guys is ROM is in it’s primary stages and would take some time to be usable on the daily basis so install it at your own risk.

  • HTC Incredible S Locks Down Custom Roms

    11x0324mn83cavxhtc HTC Incredible S Locks Down Custom Roms

    So it seems just like the recently release HTC Thunderbolt the HTC Incredible S too is locking down against the use of custom roms. So it wasn’t just Verizon who wanted the phone locked to it’s default rom but HTC had a lot to do with it as well. The phone features a signature check when flashing recovery images so if you want to install a custom roms, the rom’s signature must match the default rom’s signature! So our best bet is to wait for someone to get us the password locked away in a utopia under the sea guarded by mermen.
