CheckROM RevoHD v7 (ICS)

Running Kandy Cane or Key Lime Pie or whatever dessert begins, or can be corrupted to, "K".

Gingerbread will be a distant memory, like, Cupcake and Donut, (Doughnut). ;)


What happened to the "H" release then old fruit? :p
 
I think as long as my phone is ticking along with the perfomance and reliability it has right now with NEAT LPG then Im done with flashing ROMS. A year left on my contract. I look forward to the next gen.

Cheers simes6600!

That's it then for CheckRom Revolution v7, ICS!

Straight from the horse's, (developer's), mouth...


"No more ROM development for SGS2"







(Their ROM... their choice... no comment!)
 
Hey guys,So I am currently on gingerbread version of Checkrom. How do I go from that to V7? is it just the normal way from CWM?. Or do I have to first upgrade to ICS root and then get it?.:confused: BAsically just askign how i can move to any ICS ROM?

Do you want to brick your phone then?
 
Caught hawker in a sarcastic mood ;) V7 is based on an unstable firmware that has caused unexpected bricking. A quick search on here or xda will tell you more.

I just flashed an ICS ROM direct over my GB ROM and had no issues whatsoever.
However, there have been a number of people that also did this, but had problems.

It seems the safest way is to flash an official stock ICS ROM and cf-root (and you may also want to flash the old bootloader to allow USB jigs to work) all via Odin first, and then flash your ROM of choice via CWM. You can do all the Odin flashes consecutively if you untick the Auto-reboot option, and retick it on your final flash to then install your ROM via CWM.

Thank you sir :D

But USB Jigs?. Isnt that only if your phone is still under warranty?. If its important even if youre warranty is up,then ill read up about this old bootloader.
 
USB Jigs reset the insecure kernel counter and eliminates the yellow triangle on the boot screen after you have rooted.

You can also buy chainfire's Triangle Away to remove it (ICS only) but I prefer to use my jig as its simple and quick.
 
Cant seem to find one mate. :( . I looked at this checkfus downloader. Downloaded and official firmware. But how do i know if its ICS
