[Q] about confirming phone - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

I have the ATT Skyrocket and Rom Manager wants to confirm my phone but this phone isn't on the list offered by CWM Rom Manager (Galaxy S2 (tmob) is though). I'm trying to flash the debloated stockrom. Is this something to worry about?

Choose the tmobile galaxy s2 as your phone... its supported in rom manager and almost identical as ours. Thats wgat everyone does

thanks for the answer. are there any known negative side effects to doing this?

Chinese Android Phones can you flash?

i want new phone unlocked because my g1 is slow but i was curious if there was a way to know if the chinese android phone is flashable and using which rom? and which is a good phone to buy ...
bumpppppp/
It hasn't even been 3 hours, there's no need for a bump. Also I don't think those cheap knockoffs can be flashed but it's possible. First you have to root it though which is probably possible with one of the "one-click root" apps. Actually flashing one is a bit more involved because of hardware differences. Next time just get the real phone instead of a knockoff, save yourself some headache and heartache at not being able to do everything you want.
i actually have a g1 thank you very much handsome
Well then take out the "next time"s from my previous post and I stick by it. Knockoffs generally aren't that great. Getting the real version from a store is better, even craigslist or ebay.
I rooted my galaxy note replica with bin4ry it worked perfectly as for flashing i have flashed a few things but to flash a rom it would be harder because i have found out i would have to port the custom rom to work with my device.

What did I miss? Why the assumption that the OP is talking about a "cheap knock-off". Maybe he means a Huawei, or ZTE or something.
Rooting android from China
Ok, i don't know if this is the right place to ask this question, but i'm desperate. I want to flash my phone that i recently bought in China, but i'm getting no where. The problem is that i can't find recovery mod that will work on my phone. If someone have any idea what recovery mod should i try, please suggest it to me.
I'm using Samsung Galaxy Style Duos I-8262D.

It will depend on the device you have. You should search xda for your device name, but if it is a cloned device, you may not be able to find anything, because some clones are not well supported.

[Q] GT-P5100 no Dialer problem

Hi,
I've bought a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 with the 3G version, but the Israeli official importer decided to take out the phone capabilities in order to avoid paying taxes for a Mobile Phone device (They claim it's now only a Tablet).
The device is 100% 3G capable, including all the hardware needed to make phone calls and send/receive SMS. They claim to have taken out only some software files... Now I can use the SIM only to use wireless networking. I've tried to install the Dialer One application, but got an error message stating that my device is not supported.
Can anyone please help me with restoring the device to its original phone mode?
Thank you!
Dan.
Well you could try a custom rom? It may work

I rather not use a custom rom... I think it's actually much simple - Some files are missing, and if I knew which and where to put those, problem solved.
I know all Israeli P5100 suffer from this strange issue, so I guess there must be a quick solution.
Thanks.

I also had the same problem. I rooted my tab and got another stock rom( not israeli). I think all the other stock roms have dialer.
But remember to do a backup if you want to change rom. I did not do backup( forget) and now i do not have hebrew on my tablet.
If you want my advise do not change rom.... you will never use the phone on tablet ...trust me on that.
hi there i want to use my p5100 as aphone insted of the "note" so please

I *think* that official cm10.1 has support for using the p5100 as a phone, and I know it has hebrew. I suggest you try it.

There are in a special thread for S7560/S7560M (Trend and Ace II x are the same phone with different names) here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2019146
I've put in a suggestion to make a master thread called Samsung Galaxy Ace (all models incl. Trend) with a subforum for each model since they are different and incompatible as far as firmware, kernel etc. is concerned. There's not much out there yet, the only one that did a JellyBean (unsupported and buggy) and then a KitKat (4.4) firmware stopped since he switched to another model. I've tried the Kitkat but it's simply not finished and will probably never be unless other people take over and give the Ace 2x/Trend a go since it seems they seem to become very common as they are often sold in great bundles around the world.
My thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2605722
There are root-kits that flashes CWM-recovery while unrooting in a kit.
Even if your (and mine) phone is named Samsung Galaxy Trend you'll need to get used to call it a Galaxy Ace II x. This is the name of the rootkit with CWM-recovery: Galaxy_S_Ace_2_X_Root_kit.rar
And there are some ROMs (Australia and Guatemala versions with higher firmware version numbers) that can be flashed on any Trend/Ace II x since they aren't country locked or something like that.

thanks for your reply man but that thread was posted long time ago i already tried cm11 and cm10.2 for this device but now i manged somehow to fully brick this phone i cant enter in recovery or download mode when i try to turn it on the phone just shows the samsung galaxy trend and shuts down itself...dont know what to do i lost my warranty paper and threw away the box so i dont know what to do
Hmm, if vol up & down & home & power doesn't take you into recovery or vol down+power+home doesn't take you into download I'm not sure there's much you can do without leaving it to someone with a full JTAG-rig that can read and backup your system partitions (esp. the EFS partition that store your IMEI etc.) and reflash it with a stock ROM + stock partitions.

[Q] Samsung galaxy ace q/appeal

The phone i am looking to get is called the samsung galaxy appeal in USA, or the samsung galaxy ace q in canada.
the main draw to this phone is its design - a real slide out keyboard.
but im just confused as far as which directions for rooting i would follow? I cant find any directions specific to that phone model, only the "samsung galaxy ace" but that and the phone I want are quite different. the model number for mine is sgh-i827D, if that helps.
My plan was to play around with it and put the latest (stable/recommended) version of android onto the phone before adding any personal touches. I know its operating system is older now but i really do enjoy the physical style of the phone itself.
Any advice would be great, thanks!
If it helps, once i root, as far as i know the only thing id want to do is upgrade the android version.

Latest official Rom--> NOT AVAIABLE (or may be i'm dumb)
But i thought that was the point of rooting, so that way technically every rom is available to every phone?
Ive seen people say they got their regular ace running version 4.4

Ace on 4.4 is possible but not recommended as its just a bit too slow for KitKat. The point is that custom roms are communtity made and if there is no community, bacause of neraly no one owns the phone you have, there will be no custom roms.
I was not even able to find the stock rom for i927D provided b samsung on the internet. I would always inform myself about the abilities to mod a device before buying it.

Can I CWM a non-development phone bought in the shop?

Do I need one of those "vanilla" developer phones if I'm to install a custom ROM on my Note 3? As far as I know, nope. You can root any Android phone.
I'm fairly sure that I can ClockWorkMod + install custom ROM on a phone I purchase in a shop. But I just want to make sure .
Thank you in advance .
You are joking, right ?
If not, yes.

Although my question seemed that of a noob, I can assure you I am not. My first rooted phone was HTC Tytn2 which I rooted using Duty's ROM's which I found here back in 2008. So no worries . Now I have a rooted SG2. I know all the procedures, safety steps and so on.
The reason I asked such a dumb question was that I had a 1% uncertainty regarding this, which I was unwilling to risk on.
As far as I know, the so-called dev-phones are simply loaded with a vanilla version of Android, no Samsung bloatware.
Anyway, thank you guys for calming my fears .

There´s only one Google Edition phone in Samsung, the S4. Still, you can get a "normal" S4 and still flash it like crazy.
