The San Francisco 49ers star quarterback Colin Kaepernick has reportedly met with defending Super Bowl Champions general manager John Elway as a trade remains a possibility.



Colin Kaepernick – who was drafted by the SF 49ers in the second round of the 2011 NFL Draft – met with at Denver Broncos GM John Elway’s house on Thursday. The University of Nevada product quarterback Colin Kaepernick and John Elway have met at least twice since March 15, per San Francisco Chronicle.

The quarterback has spent his offseason nursing his left shoulder, right thumb and left knee from surgeries in Vail, Colorado, which is about 100 miles drive from Denver. The San Francisco 49ers have granted Colin Kaepernick’s agents permission to seek a trade.

Colin Kaepernick’s $11.9 million base salary for the 2016 National Football League season became guaranteed with the San Francisco 49ers on Thursday.

According to multiple reports, the Denver Broncos are apparently interested in trading for quarterback Colin Kaepernick but only should the San Francisco 49ers quarterback accepts a pay cut.

After the veteran quarterback Peyton Manning retired and heir-apparent starter Brock Osweiler opted to sign with Houston Texans, the Denver Broncos acquired veteran Mark Sanchez from the Philadelphia Eagles just last month in a trade deal. The Denver Broncos have been looking to boost their depth at quarterback position, and Colin Kaepernick has been consistently linked with the franchise.

The Denver Broncos are hoping to entice Colin Kaepernick to restructure his contract so the quarterback can serve as retired Peyton Manning’s replacement for the team rather than Blaine Gabbert’s backup in San Francisco 49ers in 2016.

Because Colin Kaepernick wasn’t released or traded before Thursday’s deadline, he doesn’t have to accept anything less than $11.9 million next season. However the Denver Broncos offers him an opportunity to start for the defending team. Both teams would have to agree on draft pick compensation.

The Denver Broncos have less than $2 million in cap space and would have to do some more financial move to make room for Colin Kaepernick. The team could gain some more cap space by either trading or releasing left tackle Ryan Clady, who’s due $9.5 million in 2016.

Meanwhile, Trevor Siemian, a seventh-round selection in the 2015 NFL Draft who didn’t play a snap as a rookie, also is on the Denver Broncos’ roster.

To Install Android 4.0.3 ICS MIUI ROM On Galaxy S II, which, based on CyanogenMod, is one of the more popular custom builds due to its smooth and distinct interface. More than being just a pretty face though, it features a better notifications menu as well as enhanced Camera/Gallery/Music apps.

Last month we showed you how To Install Android 4.0.3 ICS MIUI ROM On Galaxy S II on your HP TouchPad device, and courtesy of adyscorpius over at XDA-Developers, you can now install it on your Samsung Galaxy S II. It’s a pretty well-tuned build, thus you won’t have to sacrifice any basic functions in order to enjoy it, and while we’d usually advise against performing such mods on your daily runner, this particular ROM is at version 2.1, so many of the usual caveats found in early alpha releases have been resolved.

If you’ve already installed CyanogenMod on your Galaxy S II, you will need to boot into ClockworkMod Recovery, wipe /data and /cache partitions, before installing the downloaded .zip file from install zip from sdcard menu; just as we did in our previous tutorial: how to install CyanogenMod 7 (Alpha 3).

Even if you haven’t already installed CyanogenMod, don’t fret, since installing MIUI on the Galaxy S II isn’t particularly difficult. Check out the guide how to install CyanogenMod (Alpha 11) for information on how you can do that.

With the formalities out of the way, let’s get started. Before you begin, make sure you’ve the following files at the ready:

Step 1: Download the AdyScorpiusMIUIv2.1-ICS-i9100-2.1.20.zip via this link. The file is over 100MB, so may take a few moments for those on slower connections.

Step 2: Once the download is complete, copy the .zip file to /sdcard.

Step 3: Boot your Galaxy SII into Recovery Mode.

Step 4: Select Wipe Data/Factory Reset, and then go to Mounts and Storage and select Wipe System.

Step 5: Install zip from sdcard – Version 2.1.

Step 6: Wipe Data/Factory Reset once more.

Step 7: Reboot your device, and you should be good to go.
