Is there a tool or way to port an AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II ICS ROM for the Samsung Galaxy SII Skyrocket?
I just got a new Skyrocket with out of the box Gingerbread, but I hate touchwiz, so I'm looking for a completely Google based ICS ROM but I haven't found anything great, so I wanna try an AT&t SGSII ROM instead.
Is it possible?
Thanks in advance.

slightly off topic, but I like ur name... but what happens in the future if u become a dev? lol.
On topic, he's right. Any ics t989 rom u flash WILL brick ur phone, worst case. Best case, it doesn't work. Either way, don't try it
Tmobile gs2 =t989 almost identical to att gs2 skyrocket I727
You can use a t989 rom on the I727 if u flash a 727 kernel and modem after the t989 rom
Att non skyrocket gs2=I777 different hardware
If u flash a I777 rom on a I727 or a t989 it will turn your phone in to a

T989 is the tmobile gs2 which is the same as the skyrocket. With lte disabled.
The i777 is the origional att gs2. Which yes youll brick if u flash there roms. But if u flash a t989 rom (tmobile gs2) then a skyrocket kernel and modem it will work

this is assuming he knew to flash a skyrocket kernel, but based on op, it didn't seem like it. We don't have a stable ics kernel for our phone anyway, unfortunately (...waits patiently)
Thanks a bunch guys for saving my phone before I did anything stupid lol

i know the kernel and param.ifs are not compatable but has anyone flased a galaxy s rom with an infuse kernel? even on 2.2.1?
im curious if a gs gb rom would run on the infuse if we used a rogers based kernel. it seems sinse the rogers rom on an american phone has broken mhl anyway, why not try it? you could get call recording and other features and endless themes if it works.
Give it a shot lol when you brick it, give gtg's ultimate unbrick a try. At least you still have the manufacturers warranty if its totally dead. Its been stated in several posts that this will not work.

Flashing a ROM that includes a kernel will clearly not work... But possibly removing all modem and kernel updates and JUST flashing /system... hmm... Not likely, but a system-only flash is the only thing likely to work.
But I'm sure someone would've tried CM7 userland-only already if that were the case.
Shouldn't need Ultimate Unbrick if you keep a CWM kernel.
Nope. Tried.
SGS II also.

Are you sure you flashed the correct ROM for your phone?
Make sure your flashing a ROM made for "Crespo" -this is the code name for your device.
I have the same phone on Mobilicity and there's lots of roms that work well. There's no 'best' ROM for everyone, they all have their pluses and minuses.
I'd start off with something tried and true with lots of support behind it like CyanogenMod 9 and see how that works out.

What do you mean when you say you have no signal? Do you mean that you can't connect to Mobilicity network or that your 3g doesn't work?
Right now I'm running AOKP nightly build 40. I've also run CM9 nightlys, CyberGRmod, Black Ice Kangorade and others I've probably forgotten.
The carrier makes no difference in what roms you can run, just make sure it's for a crespo device.

Just be careful and read up first when dealing with radios. It may not be the problem but flashing the wrong one could cause issues. :thumbup:

So I just got myself a GS3 and i am prepping my Skyrocket for sale. I was on CM9 and i did a factory reset/delete USB from the phone's settings. Then when i rebooted i was stuck on the CM9 boot logo for ever and ever. So i used this method to restore to stock: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1342348 and everything went A1, my phone is back to orignal factory state as is just like the day i bought it. Then i plug into kies to upgrade to official ICS and it tells me my firmware is not compatible for the update. Bummer, so in reinstall all samsung software, kies and drivers and still the same issue. So i though it would be great just to root the phone and update it to CM9 but when i try to root this is what i get using 1click:

So now i dont know what to do, i cant upgrade the official way nor the unofficial way and my sales ad states it come with ICS and 2 buyers already backout because it was on gingerbread.
Anybody know WTF is this??
Just from personal experience dont use the oneclick method try the odin root method , seems to have less problems and it works flawlessly for me.

read this to return to true stock http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1652398 u can use odin to flash stock rogers ics, u dont need kies to do it
thanks, will try that
The return to stock thread is really confusing... I have a rogers skyrocket unlocked using on fido, I wanna upgrade to ICS but the single click odin failed Im assuming its because that one is for the ATT skyrocket...how can i upgrade to ICS on my rogers skyrocket? I'm rooted...
Go to sammobile and download the Rogers (I727R) ics tar. Make sure you do a factory before you put your phone in download mode.
You can do it after but you may get some fc on first boot after flashing

Can someone possibly port the stock galaxy s3 rom? I know rem-ics is themed like it, but it is missing some features, like the unlock. And its just a theme, i'd prefer a port of the actual rom. Also, after we get the true ics kernel, will someone start trying to port jelly bean? Thank you c:

If you mean the touchwiz 5 launcher that comes with the gs3 you can flash a zip file to your phone already its in one of the forums look up touchwiz 5 for all phones. and yes as soon as the new kernel comes out work on job will start.

I'm waiting dont worry c: i was just wondering. Plus, im kind of interested in making roms but i dont know how. Sorry, im new to this stuff.
By comparison, the ROM part is a cakewalk compared to the kernel. If you have C experience, check out the Team Acid git repo and Bhundven's Aries kernel.
If you want to start on ROMs, there is a wiki post on compiling AOKP / CM9 from scratch for the SGS4G. Search on "Acidify" if it doesn't reveal itself quickly.

Svettius told me if we want an official forum, we need more people to start threads about the device and for more people to get interested in working on it. Spread the word. There is a forum on AndroidForums, but not here...
looking forward for custom roms, I love this device since its capable on cdma and GSM
