If you have a Samsung Galaxy S2 and live somewhere on America which doesn't yet allow you to update to ICS. Well, i found a way on how to do it.

What do you need:
  • Samsung Kies
  • Rooted Samsung Galaxy S2
  • SpoofFW (can be found on Google Play)
Instructions:
  1. Open SpoofFW aplication. it will ask for Superuser permission, so just click on Grant premission.
  2. Complete Step 1 which is make a backup just in case something wrong happens

  3. Press the phone menu and choose "Update Presets" this action should take a few minutes so just wait until it updates

  4. Once updated, press the menu again and this time choose "Presets". A list of regions and carriers should pop up. Scroll down to Spain GT-I9100LKAFOP which is spain's unlocked preset

  5. with this we will make Kies think it is a phone from Spain
  6. After choosing the preset, we click on "Step 2"

  7. Your phone should reboot. After rebooting, open SpoofFW again and we select the same preset again
  8. Once that is done, scroll down to "Step 3" and click on it

  9. After that is done, simply connect your phone to your PC using Kies
  10. Update should appear, just follow all steps to update Android Firmware (update can vary depending on your internet connection)
  11. Once done you should have 4.0.3 installed
  12. enjoy your Samsung Galaxy S2 with ICS firmware!

    aroma
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    in that case, there is no such thing as homebrew launcher for aroma
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    you have to launch your homebrews directly from the wii u menu
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    there is a plugin that display them on the wii u menu, pretty sure it is enabled by default
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    so like it doesnt exist
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:

  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    it doesn't exist, at least not for aroma

  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    okay
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    I don't have a wii u anymore to test it myself, but if homebrews are not visible on the wii u menu I think you can press L + R + minus to open the plugin menu, there should be an option called "homebrews on wii u menu" or something similar
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    nope
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    it is L+dpad down+ select
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    but homebrew is appearing in the home menu btw
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    yes, now I remember it
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    then it is working, I also don't like that they did this but it is the only option you have if you are using aroma
