SpeedMod works on CM 7.1 Captivate, right?

Some ROMs used to delete it, and although that should not happen anymore these days, if I was you I wouldn't take the risk. Just download Root Explorer (or ES File Explorer and enable Root exploring in it's settings), navigate to your phone root and copy the efs folder to your SD card, then copy it to your PC or something.

Yeah I think I'll get the S2 for christmas, no point wasting money on the nexus when it's missing basic hardware like a microSD slot. Hopefully there'll be a working ICS port soon after I get it because now that I've seen ICS in action everything else (especially touchwiz) looks like a toy.

I also love how I got a Captivate a month before the S2 came out V:v:V

Anyone know of a NDS emulator for the SGS II if that exists?

Is there a kernel similar to Speedmod for the Captivate that runs with CM 7.1?

I might be getting a tablet for christmas. ... Or a DSLR camera... My family wants a tablet, running android of course because my dad wants it the most important think. Of course I want it too so my dad will start using the wireless router for it. Or press on a DSLR camera that I want to use for school, for computer art, the school newspaper, recording events, the yearbook, and making short films... I don't think I can get both and I really don't need a tablet right now or any time soon...

And your missing the making short films part of the camera and I'm gunning for the canon t3i, not the canon t2i because I want swivel screen. Or 60d if parents are not being super cheapos or if it's really cheap.
