Flash back to stock if brick. Flash CM7, MIUI, etc... just like Infuse 4g?
Sent from my SGH-I997 using xda premium
I came from an Infuse and felt fairly at home on the Skyrocket.
My impression from reading forums is that more people have screwed up this phone than the Infuse because there are so many phones with the Galaxy S II name and people try to mix and match ROMs. Just be careful of that and you should be fine.

Its because people do not read. Obviously there different devices. And common sense says dont flash anything from a different device. Mabye it will break mine. Or mabye i should read and find out if you can on certain devices. But nope nope nope. People dont read and apparantly have very little common sense. So they just flash wrong roms/kernels. Then complain about how its a developers fault or odins fault there brickd.
So bottom line is. Always know what your flashing before attempting to flash anything. Even themes
Yes I noticed people screwed up. Wrong roms. Good thing it can be fixed by return to stock.

Actually alot of times ot can not be fixed
I have a question..?? Can the skyrocket be unlock for any GSM Carrier just like the Samsung Infuse by using either an app or editor?
No the apps dont work. You gota pay a website like cellunlocker for the code

I cant imagine the support that phone is going to get. I mean it isnt even out in the states and the devs already have it.
I wish Tmobile would pick it up...
/facepalm.
i buy the SGS 4G, and then hear about this.
I have sneaky idea that someone will find the unlock code for this as well so it can be use by T-Mobile peeps

Is that the U.S. CDMA version or the Europe GSM version?

its not a matter of it being unlocked, you can purchase them unlocked from alot of places. its a matter of NONE of them being able to utilize tmobiles 3g/4g AWS bands. They will only work on edge as far as data goes.

although T-Mobile will not be getting the sgsII (supposedly) Its likely we will be getting this Goliath monster of a phone.

Edit: I noticed the article does not mention the battery size... if it shares a similar battery with the infuse 4g it should be a 1750mah battery.

I didnt know that... but I know I am waiting for more info on this phone. Sounds like it may even trump the SGSII (excluding dev support).
What's up. I'm coming from a Vibrant and I was wondering why only certain phones use one baseband/ modem and others use many... The vibrant had plenty to choose from... some gave you better data while others sacrificed battery life for good data. The g2x only has one. Just wondering if we already had the best one or what?

LG either doesnt update modems often, or we dont have the leaks like we did in the vibrant forum.
There's an updated baseband as a part of the GB update, but as far as I can tell nobody has uploaded it as a separate file yet.
Just seemed wired it only had one.

Just asking... please don't flame
Loved Gtg's work but noticed he has taken down all his ROMs because of some Network Issues in his latest ROM. He said a couple of days but it's been 6 days now I guess.
As such there is hardly anyone working on Infuse... and that is so sad . Now even if Gtg stops working on it, I might as well get rid of this phone!!
So anyone knows if Gtg is coming back? Or is the Infuse is dead even before it properly took off here
He hasn't left, to my knowledge. He's working on a couple of things right now. He'll be back in full force in the near future.
Development for the Infuse is by no means dead. LunuxBozo is currently working on bringing CM7 to the Infuse and has made what I consider tremendous progress.
What I thought was, I'd become one of those deaf-mutes; or should I?
I would love to flame but since you asked nicely.. What do you mean he has removed his ROMs? Infused is still up and hasn't really had any major problems...
I meant the GB ROMs. Froyo were great and I have no problems with his GB latest ROMs as well, but I am no one to comment on Network data rate issues that others are having as I never get that high data rates in my area anyway
Not blaming Gtg at all.. he is awesome, but just curious to know if Infuse support will ever reach something like that for GalaxyS. Just love this phone ...
With the GB update looming, it may be fair to say that infused, as it sits, may be dead. Why continue development on the Rogers base when he can scratch it and wait for easy street with ATT update?

Froyo Infused was never pulled, it's still there.
As to gtg - I'm assuming he'll be back. He's probably burned out (I don't blame him) and needs a break. I would too. Since Rogers dropped GB we've been spending a liiiitle too much time at our keyboards...
Just hold on. Things will come eventually
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997R using XDA Premium App
i feel few people own infuse that's why we have so few custom roms whereas htc models and samsung galaxy are owned by way too many people and due to their popularity more devs came up with their edition.
as far as gtg is concerned froyo links are there and one link of infused is still there if one goes through infused rom.
i am just waiting for att gb update and then hope that we will have more custom roms and new version by our gtg

Sweet I just downloaded the rom. Correct me if I'm wrong, ill use rom manager and boot into recovery, select rom from sdcard, and install. My question is, how do I wipe data like it sugests without being able to use rom manager to download.

I'm just wondering if the SGS4G is the same as the Telus Galaxy S Fascinate 4G? I have one, and the model is SGS-959P. I had the 3G version, and had a custom rom on it, and loved it, just trying to figure out which roms I can use on this one..

I know, i was just saying the specs are similar, its GSM, front facing cam, 4g, same bands, everything lol I was just saying why would samsung name it Fascinate when they already had a CDMA fascinate with Verizon. And why not give Telus the SGS4G better.

I currently have an atrix 4g, OG, and I've become real interested in the skyrocket. It has really awesome specs. Do you guys like your phone? I'm going to pick up a skyrocket in a few weeks and would like to know what you guys think of the phone. Do you have a good dev community and support?
Let me know what you guys think!

Yes its a great phone! LTE and everything definitely go pick it up. When this thing is overclocked it just flies. And we are getting official ics hopefully before the end if this month. We have tons of great devs as well.

Forgot to mention that we can flash roms for the T-Mobile galaxy s2 since they are so similar. And a lot of their devs usually bring some of their stuff to our phone blindly developing it so we really have a lot of developers.

Skyrocket is a great phone, but I would get the SIII in a few weeks. Superior phone, and will probably have a ton of DEV support.
I went from the Atrix 4G to the Skyrocket for an upgrade and it was the best choice I ever made. No lie.

If you dont want the SIII then the skyrocket is the next best thing, there isnt a phone out there thats better in my opinion.
Thanks guys for all the feedback. Definitely gonna pick this bad boy up soon

I LOVE this phone. No problems. Seriously, it's a great piece of hardware. I think by time my contract comes up next year, it still will feel fresh.
Add me to the list of those who recently "upgraded" from Moto Atrix to S2SR. Atrix was a good phone, but it had a serious restart/reboot problem no matter if I was on a call, texting, listening to music or watching movies/videos. I eventually sold it a month or two ago for a used SR with Otterbox Defender case. Cost of SR - profit from Atrix = $110 out of pocket. I'd say that was worth it...haha!
Anyway, for the S2SR, my only complaint is how often I lose bluetooth and wi-fi (at home) or 4G for data. I'm constantly re-connecting to my headset or checking the "Use Packet Data" box in Mobile Network. I keep a Settings shortcut on my home screen because I lose connection daily...gets annoying.
So do you guys use ODIN frequently? What is a modem? Where does unlocking the boot loader come into place? For the atrix, ODIN is RSD and we usually never use it, its either fast boot or cwm. and we just have kernals and roms and basebands when needed. Sorry for all the questions. I don't want to brick it when I get it
