Official Android 4.0 on custom rom and firmware?(Galaxy s2) - General Questions and Answers

Hi all. I was wondering when the ICS update will come out for galaxy s2, is it possible to install it in a smartphone with custom firmware and rom, or i'll brick the phone?

You won't be able to install an official update with a custom firmware and rom, as soon as you will install the official ICS, your phone will be back to the "not rooted" status.
Or better, you need to go back to a stock rom to update it..

Grazie per avermi tolto il dubbio ^^

[Q] Paranoid rom for Galaxy Note - Is there any way to install it over stock ICS

HI ,
I have a questions about the Paranoid Galaxy note ROM.
1. Can we install it over the Stock ICS (UK) ?
2. Can we get the only Hybrid feature for ICS rooted Stock ?
3. Can we install the ROM over GB stock rooted ?
Is there any way i can develop the hybrid feature for ICS stock rom . Please suggest me a way ?
Because the UK rom is pretty much stable as compaired to stock rom and I am widely using the S-Pen feature and thats why i am not able to move to GB .
Pleaseeeeeeee Help me ...
Thanks,
In Advance
1- No you can't.
In Paranoid's page it says:
DON'T flash FROM ANY SAMSUNG ICS OR ROMS BASED ON SAMSUNG KERNELS (my CM9, AOSP, etc)
Flash any stock GB rom with odin / or any GB kernel [instructions] root device [instructions] and reboot into recovery once again before flashing this
2- I dont think so. it would generally possible with a custom rom because not just the launcher, but also all the apps will be like a tablet app.
3- Yes you can and it is also the recommended one.

[Q] Updating official rom from 4.0.4 to 4.1.1 AND root

My tab is originally in 4.0.4 with root.
Then, I flashed the official firmware of 4.1.1 via ODIN to my tab.
I think the official 4.1.1 is not that smooth.
It is safe for me to upgrade with existing root?? Do I need to flash again??
Also, how to root the 4.1.1??
Thanks in advance!

There's no official custom rom for my Samsung phone. Still worth it to root?

Hello Friends
My phone is a Samsung A20s (that's with an s) . It seems that there is no official custom rom for this particular phone.
My question is:
1. Should I root it anyway even if there's no official custom rom for it? What good would it do if it's rooted?
2. Given that it does not have an official custom rom, is it safe to install any rom that is 'compatible'? What are the chances of it having too many bugs if I install a ROM that is not an official custom rom?
Thank you
