[Q] Need help tinkering with Rogers Stock Rom - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

Hey All, I am rather adverse to running custom roms and kernels on my Skyrocket for stability reasons and was trying to figure out a couple of things:
1. Debranding/ removing the Rogers splash screen, There was a thread about overwriting the files in /system/media , but the impression I got was that I couldn't do that in stock.
2. CRT off animation,I was trying to do this manually but it doesn't seem to work properly, always have errors decompiling framework-res.apk, does the rom have to deodexed, should I decompile with dependencies or both?
Thanks

Uhhh, devs any help here?

[CLOSED][ROM]Bone Stock & Stock Deodex ROM's Triumph-Now Resets Splash.img!![CLOSED]
Thread closed because I no longer own this device. The download links no longer work. Sorry for any inconvenience.
i just installed and wifi works but when trying to go online rebuts the phone, also the screen goes black and stays like that for like 2 minutes. And yes i did all the restores available.
Which ROM did you flash? Deodexed or Complete Stock?
deoxed one.
Hmm that's odd cause the woofing works fine on mine! Ill look into it!

Same here it works... weird, this is the fix for me that got the wifi functioning again. But then again, I flashed b_randon14's stock theme zip, not this one.
If you want deodex I would recommend that one, more confirm it working at least right now.
Stupid question perhaps, but will apktool properly decompile and recompile framework-res.apk? I ran into a doozy of a problem trying to do that with somebody else's ROM.
Yeah it decompiles just fine! I have done it a thousand times!
Edited op with the zips that will reset the splash.img back to factory as well!!!
Thanks and I'm going to have to try this one out now.
Is the Android logo text hidden deeper in the system than I originally thought? I've actually seen it on my new phone a couple of times now, after reverting different things. You know, the flashing "android" text...
When there is no boot animation, it reverts to the flashing android logo. Its in the framework Res under assets/images. The boot logo(red Motorola logo) is on the same partition as the recovery image as a splash.img. to flash it I have the recovery mount that vfat partition as sd-ext and copy over the the splash.img its the same way I flash recoveries from cwm.
The bootanimations( red Motorola animated logo then cm splash animation) is locates in /hidden/data/power-on animation.

So I installed the deodexed version and I was able to use mobile wifi tether with barnicale without having to change the MTU for the Motorola Triumph!
Once you change the MTU once on a computer, you never have to change it again... you sure it's not just a residual effect?

I'm quite well aware of that. I did it on my laptop, but not my desktop. but my desktop was able to connect online with the tether. i guess i should try it on another machine to make sure.
Is there any advantage with the deodexed version over the odexed version if your goal is to restore the phone to stock after having another ROM installed?
Selling my Motorola Triumph to a friend - I've been running CM7 since the alpha days, so I need to go back to stock. I still have a nandroid of the stock ROM, but that also has a lot of installed apps, not to mention personal information/passwords. Will the complete stock ROM allow her to activate the phone?

It should.
I know this thread is about a year old, but thanks for the stock files.
I had CM7 running on my daughters Triumph. I finally decided to just put both of my kids on my VZW family plan since the Gnex dropped to $50 each and Virgin Mobile's service is a complete waste of money.
I'm selling her Triumph now and the phone has to be stock in order for the new owner to activate it, so this came in handy.
Thank you very much!
Works perfectly. My girlfriend didn't want a buggy ROM ruining her Candy Crush games so I had to bring her back to stock. Took less than ten minutes! Tanks!

Success: Rogers Deodexed/Debloated | with CleanROM

Successfully deodexed/debloated original Rogers 1.73 RUU ROM using CleanROM tools/script. Why? I am sure I am not the only Rogers phone user itching to have a debloated/deodexed ROM experience. My main goal is to get sk806's mod to work. Debloat wanted for obvious reasons.
What I did:
- I updated the CleanROM installer script, removed two processes for at&t, replaced all system/apps and framework files from Sirius-X.
The install process was rather slow at first, took me three soft bricks, and basically a full day to get my phone up and running again.
I am just testing this now to make sure this is fully functional. For some reason I lost the stock phone.apk app, I have tried all my known methods to reinstall, but still not working. My workaround is using exDialer from the market...sorry the Play Store, for the time being. Also hoping to get the 3-dot mod working on this, main reason for wanting deodex files.
Because I am new to this, and still testing, I don't plan to share at this time ...but depending on demand in this thread, and lack of Rogers Deodex/debloated ROMS available(that can be installed), I would be willing to share. I would also have to msg JSLEntreprises to make sure i could reuse his SiriusX Rom files, also msg scrosler to chg/reuse his CleanROM toosl(although it seems he has opened them up for all to use).
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Credits go to:
scrosler: for his CleanROM Tool/Installer (thanks for all the hard work!)
JSLEnterprises: for his Sirius ROM pieces, and deodexed files (there are still a couple of odexed files left over, I assume there is good reason for this, so I left them in)
SK806: for all the hard work he is doing to get an unlocked bootloader and 3-dot MOD(hopefully we will have the files for 1.73 RUU again soon, to use with this mod.)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
UPDATE:
Both the Camera and Phone apps weren't working..I ended merging a few of the deodexed AT&T apps from scroslers ClearnROM AT&T Beta 1...and it seems to all be fixed.
I wanted to add a poll at this point to see the demand for this from Rogers users, but I can't figure out how, after already making this thread.
GOD If you do share the how-to for Rogers. I'd be happy to give that a GO. Mind you I've done a good job at it myself but I'd be happy to factory reset my phone and proceed with your steps and see the difference.
Cheers bud!

Hey fluxgfx,
If you already have the deodexed files booted on your phone, I wouldn't bother going through the process again, it probably wouldn't be worth it. However, if you still wanted to, I can send you the updated installer script..then you could download SiriusX ROM, AT&T CleanMOD beta1, and copy over the system/apps and framework files, to the proper places in the CleanMod folder(I also suggest extacting the Phone.apk, Camera.apk and any files not deodexed from SiruisX ROM, you will already have these in the CleanMOD app folder)..and do it from there...remember you need stock recovery for this to work, so you can only start with a fresh Rogers RUU flash (so have that downloaded as well).
Let me know after reading that paragraph if you are still interested and I can write out the full procedure, there doesn't seem to be a big demand for this, + at&t users will soon have a CWM recovery, which means we will probably get ours fully functional soon as well, which makes this process MUCH easier and probably safer.
I'm definitely interested in a debloat and deodex rogers HTC one X rom. How well did it fare for you?
Umm isnt it called cleanrom? Im using lite 1.1 and its great.
id be very interested, basically my only itch on the rogers stock rom is that super annoying bottom bar that needs a deodexed rom to get rid of !!
Truthfully I consider this thread/proposal dead at this point...it was only mentioned when there was no working recovery. As soon as we got superCID I flashed at&t and haven't looked back...Been using cleanrom standard ever since.
Go with any of the custom ROM, they should all be much superior to Rogers stock...WiFi crap is fixed, multitasking and much more.

[Q] tweaks build.prop on AOKP?

Aloha!
*flexing my noob guns*
so I'm rooted and all on the tf300 and running the AOKP custom rom.
Curious if this build.prop tweak would work on this rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1641219
Should I try it? Will it work? Any feedback would be appreciated.
I'm pretty sure that the custom build.prop that you are referring to was meant for stock ROM, which could possibly soft brick your TF. Since AOKP is a custom ROM, I assume that the build.prop is already tweaked. But if you want to try it...since you are unlocked, you should be able to recover from a soft brick if it happens by a couple of methods...use ADB to push a good backup of the original build.prop or booting into recovery and either performing a nandroid restore or just wipe/reflash AOKP. This is all providing that you do backups up the above things first. Anytime you do mods, always ensure that you have ways of getting back just in case.

[Q] Droid 3 Bootstrap Flashing ROM

Hi,
So I've tried reading to solve my problem, but didn't find quite the direct answer yet.
I've been working on installing Steel Droid v5.6 on my Droid 3. I got it rooted, and then installed the modified safestrap by Rick#2. I feel like I shoulda stuck to the original.
My questions are:
What is the exact different between safe and unsafe mode in the safestrap. Which one should the custom ROM go on?
How can I be sure I have my original files saved, incase I decide to abandon a custom ROM.
Thanks

No WIFI on mY custom Rom

I used Dsixdas Rom kitchen to create my own custom stock rom for the New Samsung Galaxy Rugby LTE.
Everything went fine, I had to edit the Updater script as, the phone is not (yet) supported by the Rom Kitchen.
However it flashed fine, except i have no Wifi, and i lose Root even though I rooted it in the Kitchen.
I think it has something to do with the Kernel, I just dont know what?
Anyone Help me out??
How can I fix Wifi and mobile data problems without reflashing kernel?
