But I've one question.
Does your Skyrocket gps fix time is fast in your vietnam country?
Normally gps lock time is about 5~10 sec.
because, I will purchase skyrocket, but some of phones are using agps surver using
their own country.(for example, T-mobile G2x using T-mobile a-gps server,
So it will cause gps fix laggy)

thanks you
GPS fix super fast here. If the weather good it make take just a few second. I am trying flash T989 rom to see if anything better.
you're welcome.
I think overseas users make a thread.
Isn't it? hehe
I am very very wodner that compatibility to
AT&T ROM(727) , Rogers ROM(727R), T-mobile ROM(989) all models?
For example, I will use to Odin.
* If I have a i727 ATT Device,
1) flash to i727R ? not bricked?
2) flash to i989 ? not bricked?
If I get a i727 ATT device, I will flash i727 Rogers ROM.
Because AT&T have many pre-load apks. And too many customizing.

Hey guys,
My Nexus S has no cell reception. Tested the sim card and thats fine. I was on the AOSP v3 rom of ics and downgraded via rom manager and then did the official update but I am not getting cell service. Any ideas? I have the i9020A
Thanks in advanced.

You downgraded via rom manager using the stock images section? I believe that is a tmo image with a tmo radio so you'll probably need to flash an att radio for it to work or flash a stock ATT image.

I flashed back to the other ICS ROM I was using before and no cell service. Everything else works but just no bars or internet via the towers. It reads theres a sim though. What do you think this is? I think the hardware gave

Thank you, very helpful vids. They answered a lot of small questions I had which always get overlooked in written guides.
Unfortunately, I've loaded the ROM you recommended and it works however I find my edge/LTE signal drops frequently and my callerid doesn't work... I'm going to try for a Rogers OEM version of the ICS rom instead of this AT&T version.

It's most likely a problem caused with the APN settings since the ROM has worked well for other Rogers users. Of course the most important thing is to make sure your phone signal works great, I get HSPA signal fine (since I don't have an LTE plan), but other Rogers users besides me added LTE settings in the APN menu, seems to work for them.
The caller ID issue has never happened to me (I'm also on Rogers), very odd, well it's better to have it working if it means using the stock Rogers ROM.

Hi,
simple question I assume but I couldn't find an easy answer with Google:
In my family we have 2 Samsung Galaxy S2 phones, one is unbranded and the other is a locked one from Vodaphone.
On the unbranded one I installed the LiteningRom 3.2 and speedmod K19, all works perfectly and battery life is excellent.
Question is: can I also install this (or any other) custom rom on the Vodaphone branded Galaxy or will it brick the phone/make it unusable ?
Thanks in advance for your views.
Hi,
I'm fairly new to rooting, my galaxy S2 is locked to O2, I managed to root my device with no problems at all using ODIN. Just make sure u download the right rooting package for your firmware.
Yes you can! I've done it! My sg2 running a flawlessly rom now.

Thanks for the replies, I will give it a try.
Your phone being network locked, to the best of my knowledge, should have no effect whatsoever.
What you NEED to watch out for is whether or not your provider's network is GSM or CDMA. Don't try to flash a CDMA rom to a GSM phone, or vice versa.
And make sure to Nandroid Backup!(!!)
Hey all,
I've been using my i727 Skyrocket unlocked on T-Mobile. But it has always been on Edge network for me. I read that this phone does not support T-Mobile band 1700/2100 so that's why it cannot have 3G/4G. Anyone in the same boat as me whose figured out how to get it working? Perhaps with a radio flash?
Thank you for reading!

It will depend on if you have an ICS or GB rom running currently. I have the I727 CM9 (ICS) unlocked/rooted on TMO too, and was able to finally get off edge running the Tmo_SGH-T879-UVLG3_radio.zip. Get 3G most of the time, and occasional HDSPA.
Make sure you have the stock radio before you do anything and make a back-up to be safe. Move the file to your sd card and load via CWM recovery.
If you are on a GB version I cannot help you, sorry.
Best of luck.

Hi,
First time posting, long time reading.
Having issues getting LTE/4G access on my Samsung Note 2 on the Vodafone network in Australia. I am currently running Hashchcek v2.5 ROM on 4.1.2, have a baseband of N7105TDVALK2 and using saberkernel.
According to Vodafone the baseband version N7105TDVDMB2 should have been pushed out with their update to 4.1.2 to allow LTE access.
Does anyone know how I go about getting this latest baseband or getting LTE as a network mode option?
Do I need to obtain the latest CSC/modem and flash with that? If so does anyone know where I can get this from? I have had a good look around and can only find the old Vodafone CSC which I am currently using. Can I just use the Telstra Baseband?
Or am I way off and someone can point me in the right direction?
Thanks

Installed the following and so far so good. Not in a 4G area ATM but will update once I have done some more testing. So far the 3G speed tests are noticeably better.
