If you have a Samsung Galaxy S 4G, specifically that name, you wouldn't be bricking.

[Q] noob root questions/ ATT GSII Skyrocket 2.3.5

Hey guys,
My lady upgraded me to the GSII skyrocket for Xmas. I thought I saw a thread for a Super One-click root for GSII skyrocket with 2.3.5. I looked all through the forum but cant find it or a simple root for 2.3.5. I rooted my old galaxy but got lucky doing it. Anyone want to give me a late Xmas presents on step by step instructions?
There is a guide in the dev section. Not all that hard if you just following the steps.

set usb debugging on (settings > applications > development > USB debugging) Install teh drivers plug in your phone and let teh drivers FULLY INSTALL extract the entire root zip file (dont just pull what you want out of it, it doesnt work like that) run the included batch file/sh file depending on your os

The drivers don't exist on the link provided takes me to a blank page. The other for Android Syndicate site doesn't exist for the Skyrocket or was taken down.
Use PdaNet to install the drivers if you can't find them. Its a free app in the market.

The drivers were all I was missing. I went out to samsung directly, downloaded the Kies drivers right from there, went out to SuperClick and worked like a charm! Any apps or suggestions of what I should do to it next?
Download rom manager. Install cwm recovery for the tmobile gs2 . Then download titaniim backup. Back up all your apps. Then boot into cwm. And choose backup/restore. And select backup. You will then have a nandroid backup. Custom recovery, and apps backd up with titanium
What are the implications of rooting? I expect Samsung/AT&T will release an ICS update for this phone in 2012 Q1 or Q2. Will rooting it now interfere with that eventual update?
You have to have stock recovery and all bloat to receive an ot a update there is a stock recovery tar in development section

rooting question and ICS?

I recently got my I727 and just rooted it using the 1 click tool, I'm wondering if it would be possible to unroot and restore it to factory default settings later if needed (lol i really should've checked before).
Also anyone know if ICS will be coming to this phone?
You can odin the stock tar anytime you want to reaturn to stock and yes ics is confirmed for q1 of 2012
Thanks. How do I know if it rooted correctly. In the site I read it said that superuser and CWM should show up. superuser showed up but theres no app for clockworkmod.
I have some apps from Rogers (my carrier) that I want to remove and I heard that rooting will let me, but it still doesn't let me uninstall or stop the apps running.
Download rommanager choose to install cwm for the tmobile galaxy s 2 it works on the skyrocket

Download titanium backup to freeze the carrier bloatware

help my phone is bricked!

I tried flashing a ROM after rooting and unlocking. When I try and boot in to the phone it says Software is not approved by Verizon. When I try and go in to recovery it says that too, theres not a thing I can do. Help me fix my phone!
Odin back to stock and read how to root all the way. You forgot to unlock your boot loader. U can still possibly find the recovery flash able zip and try that. And then reflash your ROM.

[Q] Any D801 users still using the 4.4.4 Mahdi Rom?

Used this rom forever until recently flashing some new Lollipop roms to play around with. Ended up not really liking the new roms, and wanted to restore back to Mahdi. Unfortunately, I was a complete idiot and didn't make a backup. The Mahdi thread is cclosed, and the downloads no longer work. Anyone out there able to help me out? Thank you!
You cannot flash because you are now on lollipop baseband and boot loader. Try kdz back to 20 g...... May have to go back further than that.... As far as download links i don't know i have the required files backed up on my computer

Thanks for the reply. I'm now back on 20g, so if someone still has the downloads on their cpu (rom and d801 patch) then I'd be good to go.
