[Q] (Q) can you put themes on the stock ics rom? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

i am hoping to put the KOB4LT R3V4MP3D 4.1 ICS theme on my skyrocket. i have cwmr touch installed and i am rooted. i was running superlite with that theme but wanted to try the new stock leak. it is running a lot smoother an with less problems then superlite did. so i want to know if i can put it on a stock rom without screwing everything up.

Yes you can flash random things like the toggle mod, but I'm not sure if every mod will work perfectly though. Trial and error then nandroid

well u shouldn't be mismatching framework-res.apk's, as each from chef puts different configs in there from my understanding, but u can flash the systemui.apk without issue I would think, as well as some of the inverted and aosp apps included in that theme

Most all of the user customizations will work with the Infuse v2 Beta
just like with the Infuse 1.53 but like any other customizations you will need to re-apply themes, wallpapers and any other stuff you have customized.
If you flash any custom roms at all you will not get the OTA GB or any other updates from AT&T unless you go back and reflash the Froyo stock rom first.
Hope this helps
Good luck!

Are oyu sure about that? The Gingerbread framework has probably changed in such a manner that themes for Froyo will break on GB.

what rom are you guys using?

i'm currently on Blaze V3(blue theme) i have gone through all of supercharged after V2. Whats the news on Sonya or Victory? Anyone using them i want to hear what you guys think.(I get bored of roms quickly lol)
ROMS
I'm using Lithium V1.1 right now I overall like the performance of it and the looks. IMO good ROM. I was able to use the universal deblur script once before the issue arrived with the ATRIX 2. Now IMO that was great had about 570mb of free Ram. Saved alot on battery too. I'm gonna try the supercharged one next. I like to change the look of my phone often and having these choices are very helpful thank you devs!

if you are going to try super charged i'd go with either red dawn(which you will have to put normal blaze on first) or V5 update 2. V5 is going to give a more stock look but still runs as well as blaze.
Thanks
Yeah I reading the v5 update 2 of supercharged sounds good. Now if I have a ROM loaded now can I just follow this directions posted? Thank you for the information!
what i suggest is to make a back up in CWM then if you made a back up of just stock rooted go into that. if not you will have to get RSD lite and get a rooted stock then follow the directions.
Stock root backup
I did make a stock root back up before I flashed Lithium. Well thanks again for the help. I will five this a try.
I've been using Supercharged V5.2 since it came out. I've tried others but tend to go back to Supercharged. It runs great and everything works. I also like how subtle the theme is which makes it easy for the rest of the apps to fit well into the scheme. The rest of the ROMs seem to be very similar to Supercharged just with different themes and some apps (SMS, Music, Gallery, etc) changed. I like the stock SMS app just fine and the rest I use third party.
Currently running VictoryROM 1.1, awesome rom!
It's not OC but it's solid, stable, everything works perfectly and it's themed exactly as I would do it myself, not over the top and gaudy. Lack of OC = excellent battery life so i'm good with that.
SuperCharged v5.2 by lfaber06
I have no problems with this ROM, even little bugs, and the main point is theme, stock theme is the best.
I am using just the stock 2.3.6 rom with root access and frozen bloatware.
I am using a HYBRID of Victory ROM and Lithium ROM...LOL Credit goes to both the Devs of this ROM
I am using me865 deblured and deoxed, and asian mb865

No, unfortunately it doesn't. Just a few roms fully work with CWM on boot (I think it's VictoryROM and Sonya (as developer said, he has solved this problem)).
Been on both stock roms (2.3.5 and 2.3.6), been on both stock deodexed (2.3.5 and 2.3.6), been on Supercharged v4, v5, v5.1, v5.2. Been on Lithium v1.1.
The fastest of them is Lithium. And it's really debloated. But has issues with CWM on boot (it's included as default and with it GPS doesn't work). When you remove CWM on boot you get GPS but loose overclock with no chance of restoring it.
Now I've restored Supercharged V5.2 with OC to 1200 Ghz. It's pretty quick (quicker, than stock and stock deodex) and have great battery life (better then on Lithium even when latter wasn't OC).
Running SC v5.2 for about 2 months, I think...

Rom
Atrix Sonya V3 update 2 MIUI LOCKSCREEN / SONY LAUNCHER.
Stock, rooted, bootstrapped.
The End.
I'm running Sonya v3 with Bionic CWM and it's close to a proper setup. Rom Manager works with it and my dropped calls issue cleared up for the most part. I know that most likely that is a radio issue, but all in all, I'm happy with the setup.
Still dreaming of an unlocked bootloader though.
I'm on rebal rom beta 3..I love it I flashed it on my gfs exhibit 2 and she loved it. Awesome rom.

I don't think you can anless you get back to stock with odin or CWM. But i maybe wrong.
Easiest and best way (if the rom you're on has an update file or "non-wipe") ................just flash it.
You'll be back to the way the rom originally is without any changes to data

huh? this doesn't make any sense. If u want custom roms but stock theme, I recommend u stick with romracer alien builds (both ics and gb), as well as anything by mhx (superlite 3.1 is gb, 5.1 is ics). They both tend to stay away from theming.
Seancreamz makes roms, and the whole point behind his are to have as close to aosp ics look as possible. if u want stock look, ur using the wrong rom
my bad, i read it wrong, i thought he meant reverting back to the roms stock look after flashing a theme

[Q] Got a couple of questions about my setup

Hi All,
I have a 727R that I have setup with Touch CWM & Superlite 5.1 ICS ROM.
I do have a couple of questions concerning my setup.
1- Is there a way that I can replace the ATT address book with the default ICS contacts?
2- I have A full version of titanium backup with a folder full of apps from another device that I would like to import into this one. Where do I put that folder for titanium backup to load and recognize?
3- Can I change the phone dialer to the stock ICS too?
4- Why wont ROM manager recognize the CWM touch that I have installed?
Thanks

Ditch SKY ICS and get an AOSP based rom like CM9, Chimaira, or AOKP. That would solve #1 and #3, personally I hate touchwiz at least the skyrocket version of it (My friend has an S3 and that version looks interesting). SKY ICS is a damn good rom but I personally just prefer AOSP, clean, fast, and simple. No added samsung, rogers, or AT&T bloat.
If you do decide to to get an AOSP based rom, you should check out Boobah's mod as one of the many things it lets you do is use inverted gApps (Will fix the ugly white blue colour scheme). Just don't use inverted google talk, it's broken.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1732304
Not sure on your other two questions.
Hi Rabidsmurf,
I would am dumping the touchwiz rom and going cm9 as we speak. I am just annoyed that the 4G icon doesn't work on the aosp, aokp roms that I have tried so far.

Yeah, annoying but a small sacrifice, you could try AOKP or Chimaira, both supposed to be excellent ROMS, they are based on CM9 and will have the same bugs, not sure if they have a 4G icon or not.
Grab one of the CM9 nightlies instead of the Alpha5, it has some extra fixes:
http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=skyrocket&type=nightly
I am using the July 2nd 2012 nightly currently, have not tried the more recent ones.
Since you're going AOSP (master race), you may also want to give Instigators Kernel a look see... supposedly it saves battery, I haven't noticed.
It did break my camera though (A common issue) so you will probably want to try a version 2.8 or earlier (Maybe one of the stable ones), that did not have the problem. I am on 3.2.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1721235
Awesome Rabidsmurf, thanks for all this.
Both the Chimera and the AOKP have the 3G icon bug.
Downloading a nightly now.....

No problem, also don't forget about Boobah's mod I linked you earlier (AROMAKoK) it's seriously awesome, and you can use it to customize your ROM after you flash it.
I also reflashed to the UCLE2 radio earlier today the one on CM9's page with the RIL libraries, seems a bit more stable:

[Q] ICS and JB

okay so the only thing i really like about cm10 compared to cm9 is the status bar.
its alot more cleaner in my opinion, but what i was wondering is if its possible to put the cm10 status bar onto cm9.
and if so can someone direct me to a tutorial on how to do this.
You mean the notification drawer right? I think you would have to change a couple of files in framework, some editing and some libs.. maybe more.
Bottom line: why go through all that trouble? Jb and ics are very similar, both cosmetically and in performance, and jb should surpass ics once it continues to be perfected, specially project butter.
Sent from my sweet and buttery Infuse
I agree with andros11. I've tried a ics-skinned gingerbread rom, 2 ics roms, and now a jb rom: the jb rom is by far my favorite, especially in regards to the notification bar and the response time. Try jb; you won't regret it
Sent from my Infuse–flavored Jelly Bean
I agree... I also have tried ICS covered GB ROMs and cm9. Absolutely love the cm10 jb ROM. Runs smooth with just a few very minor bugs. Not going back!
Sent from my Jelly Beaned Infuse 4G!
Only downside i've really noticed to CM10 so far is the fact that there is no more flash support and the internet is still heavily using flash right now.
Edit: was sifting through some posts and there is actually a browser that works with flash for jb. It's called xscope and it links to a post with a compatible flash version to install. Total awesomeness!

Flash actually works really well on JB. If you search for a flash apk, you can still install it and run it on other browsers too.
I was poking around the play store a while back and saw an app to get the jb notification style. I think it was called jelly bean notifications or something like that. Id post a link but im on the phone and its a pita.
I didnt test it as im on cm10 but try it out. Might be just what youre looking for
Edit: it was called jelly bean status bar. And it looks like it might change the way notifications are shown. But im not sure.
