[q] using skyrocket in asia - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

Hi there, i'd like to ask about using skyrocket out of its own carrier.
i'm planning to buy unlocked AT&T Skyrocket from a friend.i was just impressed with this phone. such a great specification.
the problem is i live in Indonesia . will the phone back to Locked with carrier after upgrading the ROM? or is it unlocked permanently?
and will it be a Radio issues? i need someone to give an explanation coz it's rarely used here in Indonesia.
Thanks all....

no it will no relock after u flash a rom, once its unlocked, is permanent. Just find out what GSM frequency your carrier supports/uses and if the skyrocket can use that frequency. I don't see this being a problem though seeing how the skyrocket has a pentaband radio.
Short answer, it will work!

But I've one question.
Does your Skyrocket gps fix time is fast in your vietnam country?
Normally gps lock time is about 5~10 sec.
because, I will purchase skyrocket, but some of phones are using agps surver using
their own country.(for example, T-mobile G2x using T-mobile a-gps server,
So it will cause gps fix laggy)

thanks you
GPS fix super fast here. If the weather good it make take just a few second. I am trying flash T989 rom to see if anything better.
you're welcome.
I think overseas users make a thread.
Isn't it? hehe
I am very very wodner that compatibility to
AT&T ROM(727) , Rogers ROM(727R), T-mobile ROM(989) all models?
For example, I will use to Odin.
* If I have a i727 ATT Device,
1) flash to i727R ? not bricked?
2) flash to i989 ? not bricked?
If I get a i727 ATT device, I will flash i727 Rogers ROM.
Because AT&T have many pre-load apks. And too many customizing.

[Q] Can I install a custom ROM on a network locked Galaxy S2?

Hi,
simple question I assume but I couldn't find an easy answer with Google:
In my family we have 2 Samsung Galaxy S2 phones, one is unbranded and the other is a locked one from Vodaphone.
On the unbranded one I installed the LiteningRom 3.2 and speedmod K19, all works perfectly and battery life is excellent.
Question is: can I also install this (or any other) custom rom on the Vodaphone branded Galaxy or will it brick the phone/make it unusable ?
Thanks in advance for your views.
Hi,
I'm fairly new to rooting, my galaxy S2 is locked to O2, I managed to root my device with no problems at all using ODIN. Just make sure u download the right rooting package for your firmware.
Yes you can! I've done it! My sg2 running a flawlessly rom now.

Thanks for the replies, I will give it a try.
Your phone being network locked, to the best of my knowledge, should have no effect whatsoever.
What you NEED to watch out for is whether or not your provider's network is GSM or CDMA. Don't try to flash a CDMA rom to a GSM phone, or vice versa.
And make sure to Nandroid Backup!(!!)

Telus Samsung Galaxy S2X 4.0.4 Update?

Hi guys, I was wondering if there was any Telus 4.0.4 updates for the S2X and how would I install it. I am fairly new to this flashing and rooting stuff. I'm just afraid I may brick my phone and.. of course nobody would want that since that pretty much sucks.
I found some 4.0.4 ROMs or something for Koodo and T-Mobile S2Xs but I'm looking for one for my Telus phone and how would I install it. Just to be more brief, my phone is unlocked by the way.
Thanks for any replies.

Verizon S8+ G955U. BL V3 Can I get All the AT&T Bands Somehow?

Ok so i have a G955U Verizon unlocked S8+. I want to use it on AT&T but i was told that verizon had disabled a few of the AT&T bands. I dont care about rooting, but if i could root and get all the AT&T bands and no bloat ware that would be above and beyond. I would mostly be happy with just having the capability to use all the bands. So i saw PartCyborgRom had a custom rom that has just recently been updated to work with the v3 BL. Would this rom give me access to all of my AT&T bands? Sorry im a newb haha 15+ year forum creeper, first time poster. Need some help guys this new stuff is over my head! Cheers and thanks!
EDIT: So i have found bboii86's thread on the AT&T S8+ Stock Oreo G955USQU3CRD4 Odin files: https://forum.xda-developers.com/at...g955u-stock-g955usqu3crd4-odin-files-t3789751 and because im already running the same baseband version somehow but with Verizon bloatware im going to try flashing it. I suppose having the AT&T bloatware rather than verizon would just make me feel better lol. So new question with parts of the old still in place: will running PartCyborgRom give me access to all the bands on the AT&T network and will I be able to use it being on the 8.0 (oreo) Android Version? Much appreciated my friends.
