I'm wondering if i can flash the cyanotouchwiz rom. I'm currently using SkyICS RC7.4 speed and also on UCLA3 modem with faux123-010b3_r2. Also if it matters kernel version 2.6.35.14. I bee looking around the forum and cant find post or a reply of anyone using cyanotouchwiz with UCLA3 modem. I want to flash the rom but i want to make sure i can before going forward and bricking my SR.
Thank you in advance.
Yes you can but make sure you use a program called apn backup and save your network settings. Then you install rom like anything else then the UCLA modem on top some say to do before but I didn't notice the difference... Also keep in mind that cyanowiz isn't built from UCLA and you would only be flashing the modem not the Kernal. After the ROM loads download apn backup and restore settings

Thank you for the reply. Another question though: I'm Assuming I have to flash da_ga kernel on top of rom right? Because that's the only kernel that would run on cm roms.

That is correct the pre4 I believe....it supports bln and had oc.UV features this ROM is by far more stable than the other alpha build

It might be because I'm a newb, or my kernal is incompatable, but every rom I've tried has bugged out. The worst was ICS, where my home button had no functionality whatsoever. So currently I'm just running Faux's kernal and that's it. Solid, not buggy, no problems so far...

UHF sky ics isn't working right for you, then you are doing something wrong. I compare my phone to my brothers unrooted skyrocket. Mine is faster with the same battery life. Sometimes better battery life depending on the update.

MIUI
Alpha 1
MIUI is one of the most popular Android ROMs across all devices, and here it is, (almost) completely ready for the Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket!
Issues
Mobile Network may or may not work. I believe you have to be unlocked.
Camera DOES NOT yet work
In-call audio does not work. One workaround may be to leave the GPS on and reboot. However, as I am not unlocked, I cannot test this.
Wifi sometimes gives an error. Looks like you're going to have to flash Da_G's CM7 kernel without any tweaks to fix that.
Let me know if there are any other issues! Other than that, this ROM could be a daily driver.
Working
Everything not listed above
Questions?
Just ask!
Dev Work
This is my first ROM, so I may need a little help dealing with all the problems that may arise. You are free to download this, modify it as you want, and repost it as your own. Just give credit where needed.
Special Thanks
XAviierG - This ROM is based off of all of XAviierG's hard work. I merely made small edits to make it work with the i727.
Da_G - This ROM's kernel is based off of Da_G's CM7 kernel.
SolteRR - SolteRR was able to fix the problem with the internal SD not being mounted by the ROM.
Download
Alpha 1: http://www.mediafire.com/?74r3b81u203tbqo
Da_G's CM7 Kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1398512
This ROM is very close to being done! I hope to have a completely stable and working ROM as a daily driver by next month.

yesss the other port had too many issues for me because of the aokp kernel they were using
There is no aokp kernel, theres skyrocket and Hercules.
I'll be glad to see rotation fixed and still the 989 kernel. Screenshots? I'm intrigued to see how this looks.
Hopefully the governor isn't stuck on performance, as with miui there's no governor control built in. Battery hogggg.

I took it as no disrespect bro, it's all good. The kernel is just the regular ol skyrocket kernel.
As far as I know the 989 kernel has the same issues (as per comments) on rootzwiki. I just want to see this all themed up.
By all means anyone can just take my port and do whatever they choose with it, no thanks or credit needed. I just put things out for the community.

Eli,
there are no Official Cyanogenmod ROMs available for the Skyrocket yet. Keep checking the Development threads and you will eventually see one. It will just take some time since no kernel source has been released yet.
Cm9 alpha3 is very good. I'm using as my daily driver now. I think itis good enough to use daily.

Your only CyanogenMod option with the Skyrocket is CM9, and alpha3 has very few issues, I have been using it since alpha1 as my main ROM, and the current release is excellent. I personally have not found any issues that are show stoppers, if CM is what you need, then try CM9, if it doesn't work, revert to your backup.
Tom
CM9 Alpha 3 can be used as a daily driver with no issues. It's a great ROM.
Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?

I never understood the use of the word "stable" when comparing ROM's with multiple issues.
**Known Issues**
~ Join Contacts don't work correctly
~ APN Lost on Airplane Mode
~ Render FX Not working ( I recommend using chainfire3D app in the market, as it works the same w/ night mode )
~ Youtube Fast Forward is Broken
~ volume+ might have issue.... see this Post
~ Changing CPU Governor can sometimes cause CPU1 from not going Offline
~ NFC not working
~ Build.prop will read as a T989, don't edit or it will cause the audio bug to return!! However, this build has the correct kernel for the I727 & won't have orientation screwed up

My little problems are:
1. External speaker randomly starts playing through ear speaker. A reboot fixes it.
2. SMS over 160 characters won't send. Setting the app to automatically split is a temporary workaround until Alpha 4 is released.
3. Some apps disappear on reboot. Just have them backed up, so I do a batch restore missing apps+data with Titanium Backup when I reboot.
4. Screen stops recognizing touch when screen is unlocked randomly. Doing a 2-finger touch to the notification bar usually brings it back. (Anyone else know about this fix? The topic only says to reboot. Managed to figure this out on my own.)
And that's about it. No serious show-stoppers at all.
Yes. Yes. Battery is WONDERFUL. (My last battery was alive for 50 hours!) Only issues I have are minor and can easily be worked around. I've been using Alpha 3 since the day it came out and haven't wanted to flash anything else.

Okay guys, im relatively new here but I'de like to think I know enough to get around and rom properly
I'm currently on a RAT Locked Radio (UCLF6) and an ATT ROM ICS (Sky ICS 4.2F) and am looking to switch to an AOSP or AOKP ROM that is very clean, simple, and as stock AOSP as possible.
The main issue I am having with my ROM is that the RAT is locked and I really needed the option of turning off LTE because I am in a test area and I keep getting flaky reception due to this. So i know to flash a RAT Unlocked Rodgers radio, heres the issue:
I cant seem to find any info out there on which ROMs that are purely AOSP and will support the radio that I seek. I also cant seem to figure out which ones people are using the most.
So Android community, what radio / Rom combo do you guys think would work for me? I'm honestly confused and any input is greatly appreciated.
Not sure about the radio side of things, but I love the CyanogenMod9 Rom. Very slick. Currently in nightly. I would only use a ROM from the developers section. (i.e.- don't just download a from zip from some random site....)
Best thing is to follow one of the noob guides to a T.
Lots of bricked Skyrockets out there...
I run CM9 nightly builds with CWM as my recovery. Works great!
Happy Modding!

If you want pure ICS. Go with cm9. You can use any rogers radio along with it as long as its ICS based. So the radio for their official release should work perfect.
