Galaxy S II gets two software updates, some issues fixed

13 May, 2011
The Galaxy S II got two new updates before we could even order food after completing its own review. Hope we don't need to rewrite much. Anyway, we didn't know the phone had issues that needed fixing in the first...

      introduce yourself to http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=665&order=desc
      though I still recommend you stick to a good custom froyo rom with a good kernel, my setup which I'm sure you'd like is Darky's Rom 9.5 with speedmod k13E kernel.. try it and see your phone fly. gingerbread is still too immature compared to custom froyo roms

                      Yes it plastik but doesnt look cheap in my eyes enyway...
                      Only one complain i have so far is that it doesnt have option for SIM contacts, but you have to copy them to your phone.
                      mayby its there but i didnt find it...
                      WOW this thing is fast, the response on the display is amazing.

                              I hope they fix the constant switching between 3G and H+ i think that may have something to do with the batt issues, and some inconsistant data speeds....once this BEAST kicks into H+ WOW! its BLAZINGFAST on Internet....hope we can get a software fix to stay on H+ the majority of the time :)
