Samsung Galaxy S2

Sorry for the noob question. I already have siyah 3.3.2 on my S2 so when I update the kernel I don't need to wipe anything right?
 
This has been discussed and solved a few pages
back. Or Google it. It has to do with the SMSC.

Also ensure you don't limit your network to only 2G or 3G if it isn't available in your area.

Thanks you :)

I know about the SMSC problem, but I was under the impression that relates to a data connection; I actually mean I lose a complete voice and data connection, but it reconnects after a short while, which seemed different to me. On AOKP Res. Remix I had to do the SMSC edit thing a few times :(

Anyhoo, I find that the phone loses its voice and data connection less and less (only every few days, for a few minutes at a time), as though the ROM is 'learning'...but I just ran through the Matrix trilogy yesterday, so that may explain my thinking :P

Otherwise the ROM is really stable and quick IMO, and if I had to convert newbs/noobs (not completely unlike myself), I would suggest the latest stable Cyanogenmod ROM.

Is there something like the perfect custom ROM? Or just stable?

I've messed around with Cyanogenmod, but not happy that I had to forsake my superb radio app.

Seems like it's always a trade-off and the reason I'm sticking with official Samsung ROMs. :erm:

Go on www.samfirmware.com, register (takes a few seconds), then click on Firmwares > Smartphone > Android > GT-I9100.

Then on the right, Region > Africa > South Africa*.

*I would suggest you download the non-branded firmware for South Africa, CSC code XFA, otherwise you'll get Vodacom's logo when the phone starts, instead of the uber-sexy S2 logo. ;)
