I'm leaving the skyrocket. Regretfully. Had to switch to my wife's Verizon shared plan. So I sold my skyrocket. It sucks. You just are great. Best forum on xda. I appreciate everyone's great attitude and wish you guys the best. Doc j is the man journal will have greats developments for this phone. And I'm glad I was a part of the best community on xda ill still be around to help answer questions. But am now stuck with the thunderbolt. Which sucks I really want the nexus. But can not afford the 299 price as my car just took a dump. Both differentials and the transmission went out so I had no choice in this switch. The thunderbolt is junk. So I'm stuck unless someone wants to donate me a galaxy nexus or droid razar lol. Haha. Its been fun folks.

Damnit silver. Noooooooo

sorry to hear this I have really enjoyed you being here. Don't worry about the thunderbolt, you will tweak that one to a better state, and get something better later when things settle, we both know that.
on a side note..what happened to the car

Sorry for the spelling stupid auto correct on this post thunderbolt. Lol trust me this phone sucks if u ever get veriizon don't get the thunderbolt only reason I have it is my wife had it unused so she just had to acctivate it. For me

To many mods did a launch broke the entire drivetrain. To much torque.

Lol already rooted it and have liquid asop with ice theme. Verizon lte sucks by the way. 10mbps down on there lte......60 on my skyrocket

holy carp...how much torque were you running? I was at 370/390 (ish) when one of my ringlands cracked...tried driving it home and well..I should have had it towed.
I am halfway done with the rebuild but can't finish it
I make a monthly payment on and walk by my WRX everyday knowing I can't drive it again until most likely August

Not sure how muh torque. Vf30 turbo 565cc injectors perrin 3 inchinlet. Catless up pipe ....catless down 3 inch exhaust ... walbro 255lph pump... gfb manual boost controoler. Injen intake. Tactrix tuned 21psi. Valvebody coolant bypass...recirc valve crush cap mod. Samco sport intercooler piping

The spider gears inside the rear diff broke off Nd were bouncig around in the diff case.

That definitely sucks. Hope yours is up and running before mine!

Thanks for apparently being the only one with the sense to perform a system dump after the ota update...my work would not be so distinguished with out that effort. Got to say thank for the all night enduring the boot loops for me and logcatting to get things working. Please stop by and say hi whenever. You got my gtalk. Always open to you.
I will surly miss your presents.

[Q] No ICS love for Rogers users?

I jumped for joy earlier today when i hopped right onto XDA to do my usual look around the forums for the skyrocket. And right infront of me were the words "ICS for SKYROCKET"
I quickly Downloaded the file and went on my way to wait for my phone to be brought back to me...only to figure out that Rogers users were left out in all this fun and joy
To my understanding, hardware is all the same...
What could possibly be done?
Is it best we wait for a work around or have someone create a custom ROM.
(Sorry guys, im new to this whole kernel/rom/rooting thing )

I think we just gotta stick together and wait it out for silver to get his ICS CWM flashable zip working.
Once that happens... do I need to say it?

hahaha i just read the thread that you referred to...reading that just got my heart pumping. Im so anxious!!
If it works, its another reason to sell my customers on the S2

LOL IKR, I was looking forward to using odin3 last night and my dreams got shattered
Can't wait for Silver to get this live for us. I will proally donate too.

weeeeeee

it looks like he has to do a little more work on it but I'm sure it will be ready tomorrow. I was waiting for him to finish it but I got impatient so I just used the Odin one. Hopefully everyone on Rogers gets ics soon I know how I would be if I was in that position

How are you liking it so far?

I love it so far. I had to do a factory data reset but after that it works flawlessly. The only thing that doesn't want to work is google wallet

still nothing for rogers users

Guys, be patient.
Silver's working as much as he can. It's only been a day.

and why can't we use odin to install this rom?

Because yours has an R at the end of i727

Check the development forum. There's one rooted ROM for ICS posted that may be worth trying and another one upcoming.

It will come buddy just wait.

Is it just like the leak and can be installed through rom manager over GB?

None work. They all have the most ridiculous lag and everything FCs. Takes like 5 mins to click something. I've flashed em all. The only one that boots up nice is the one in the t989 forum but nothing works (no data etc) so we dont have it

how about this? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1567817
Reading through the comments and it seems bearable.
Can you test if LTE works?

It's more than bearable. Very smooth, the bugs that it has seem to be in line with the bugs in the AT&T Odin install. Can't confirm LTE as I don't have it in my area yet.

An important note to everyone here

As you probably know, we just got our first full ICS leak, even though it was for the me865. I am not going to comment on how useful it would be for the rest of us other than it will not flash correctly so don't try. All the devs here are pulling it apart to see what can be used.
It is extremely important that everyone is checking cheesecake as much as possible!!!!!
our biggest hope is that we can pull a leak from the US servers with ICS and/or an unlocked bootloader. See the stickied bootloader unlock thread for more info. I am working on an app/ other way to automate the process even more so that it can be checked more often as the updates will only stay available for a short period of time.

Been checking like crazy for the past few hours.
Seems as though most of the "QA" servers are down, as of right now. Or is it me?
Also, I did get a "Your device is up to date." message off of master-qa500.blurdev.com
Maybe that's something to keep our eye on possibly?
EDIT: seems like most of the servers are down. Still checking though.

Yeah if you get the "setup wifi" message the server is down. If you get your device is up to date the server is up but nothing is on it.

EDIT: Noob question about cheesecake, will it screw up my ability to get normal OTA updates? Since obviously it changes the server my phone looks on for updates?

If you switch back to the "Production"..."master-blur.svcmot.com" server, that should be back to the regular server that it would otherwise normally check. Someone correct me if I'm wrong...
Also, Jim mentioned a way to use something like Tasker to help automate this as well. If farshad525hou makes an automated app, that would be awesome. In the meantime, does anyone know how to get Tasker to do that? Perhaps I'll send Jim a PM to see if he could put a little description of how it's done. That way people (myself included) will have less of an excuse to be checking the servers .

I've been checking cheesecake about every two hours since I got to work this morning. Haven't found anything yet but I have noticed more servers being active since this morning.

Help with ROM download

ive looked through the entire development forum for the mytouch 4g and i cannot find a thread for stock 2.3.4 that is rooted. the few i found either link you to a page that has malicious intent (internet v. holywood) or it takes me to a page that has an expired download link. can anyone help me out here? im trying to root my buds phone today but i want a stock rom that he can keep as a backup

There are no bone stock just rooted ROMs. But a great optimized stock would be bulletproof or miktouch

I am uploading another run of my backups for weekends to post right now, taking advantage of free wifi at work. My shift starts in an hour.
I have the three de-odexed system images I had hosted before on the que, but they are big and may not make it until tomorrow nights upload - either way the images you are looking for will be back up within the next few days.
Glqd I keep things so stringently organized and filed, I only have a few minutes here and there to get things moving, so not wasting time trying to find stuff has been a big help.

I'll have them ALL up from the T3 line at work. That baby FLIES while this one is so slow anything over 75mb just errors out.

Haha I know what you mean - at my house due to a variety of factors the best internet I can get is just a bit under 56k dialup speed. I had to rely on another forum member I connected with in my area to get bulletproof uploaded.
That's why a 64 gig microsd was non-negotiablr purchase for me, I needed to ba able to take advantage of wifi hotspots and the associated speeds... and now being out on the road it's doubly important.
Thanks again for the big help in getting this all upped!

Everything I do & everything I read I learn from Blue. Thanks for allowing me to help.

Ubuntu Touch

Just wanted to know if any of the devs would be interested in porting the Ubuntu Touch over to our One XL's. I'm not a dev at all (I know absolutely zero coding), but came across this post on the XDA homepage. Thought it would be kinda cool for us to have Ubuntu touch ported over to our device as well.

Would love to see it if anyone knows how to get it ported over.
Thanks in advance to anyone that does!

They make it seem pretty simple to get set up so long as you have CM10.1 working for your device, so hopefully that's the case. Ubuntu is installing right now, fingers crossed it doesn't have any issues along the way.

Just a heads up, it looks, unsurprisingly, like Ubuntu's servers are getting hammered right now. I'm only getting about 150 KBps from the, though it could also be my sometimes flaky internet connection here too. It's gonna take a little while to pull everything at this speed.

Yeah, it sounds like it's barely even able to work as a phone. We'll have to see how quickly they are working on it. Hopefully it'll be actually usable before too long.
Unfortunately, I'm STILL trying to pull the source. I mean, it's ridiculously slow. I'm under 100 KBps now. I was hoping to get something running today because I don't know that I'll have time to work on it over the weekend. We'll have to see.
Update: Yeah, some 5-6 hours later we're STILL downloading. Nothing for today. I'm going to try to get back to it tomorrow or Sunday if I have time. Hopefully by then it will have finished downloading, haha.

Wow, this dropped all the way to page 4. I didn't even realize this section was that busy, haha. Well, I unfortunately didn't get any time to come in and mess with this over the weekend, but my source pull failed before completing, and now every time I try to start it back up, it just fails again saying the remote end hung up unexpectedly. I'll check back later and see if they get it fixed.

At the moment, I've gotten back into a busy cycle at work, and my computer is broken at home (I'm down to an iPad and my phone), so I haven't been able to play with it. Hoping to get my computer up and running as soon as I can get some parts ordered. I can't really be upset, I've been using that system for over 5 years now and it's been running like a damn champ! Goodbye ridiculously old Opteron 165. Maybe one of these other guys might have an interest in getting it running.
