Need help to update my i727 skyrocket - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

Hi everyone,
This is my first post in xda. I am new in this rooting or flashing etc. Please don't get irritated with my questions as I am new. I live in Bangladesh. I bought an at&t skyrocket i727 from a person just returned from usa which is unlocked.
My questions are
how do I update it into ics 4?
Should I wait for the update given by Samsung?
If I don't wait which will be the best and safe way to update? As I have seen so many ways discussed here I am really confused.
And after update do I need to unlock it again?
My phone details are
version 2.3.5
Baseband I727UCKJ2
kernel 2.6.35.11
Build GINGERBREAD.UCKJ2
Thanks in advance for your cooperation.

first of all there is no official ics update for skyrocket the latest update is 2.3.6
although there have been many ics leaks the latest is the ucle2 leak and you can get more information from this link

I'm pretty sure there are sticky guides somewhere. That being said Please try searching before making a new thread.

[Q] Updating Samsung Infuse 4G(Rooted) to Ginderbread

Hi everyone, I was wondering if I could update the firmware on my Samsung Infuse from Froyo Android 2.2.1 to Gingerbread 2.3 with a rooted phone? Will anything be lost during this, and will I have to unroot and then re-root my phone in order to update?
These questions are answered in the AT&T official update info thread. Please read before posting.

I do not believe there is an upgrade path from froyo to gb that will keep root. There are some pre-rooted gb ROMs but nothing down the official road. The official gb update is the same as the UCKL2 leak from December. Do a search for user przekret and you'll see the thread. Its buried in the development forum somewhere. Any of the "official" GB updates are flashable only through Odin so I'm pretty sure you'd lose everything. At least that's what I've been reading. I lost everything when I flashed it. Personally, however, the "official" is very unpolished and I'm actually back on UCKH1 Froyo until a new "official" is out.

You could just help him out instead of posting something pointless.

[Q] Unlock i727r and ICS

Hey everyone, first time posting.
So I did a search for my particular question, and while some Q&A's deal with similar concepts, I feel my question is still unanswered.
That being said:
I have a Samsung Galaxy SII LTE i727r (Rogers). I am with Fido. I am getting an unlock code ASAP so that I can use the phone. When the i727r actually gets the ICS update, will I be able to use Kies to upgrade? Or will I have to flash/use a ROM.
Alternatively, could I just borrow a friends Rogers-SIM and upgrade that way?
Thanks!
Hey bro, you can update your phone by lies because if you install ICS from, your phone won't be i727r. It will be i727. Unfortunately our phones hasn't ICS from Samsung official page. For this reason we only use modified rom from i727 skyrocket phones. I recommend you the SKY ICS 4.2E 7 by seanscreams.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1653022

Sorry, it's very difficult to understand what you're asking.
Are you looking for the official (stock) Rogers ICS rom that was released in June? You should be able to get this update through KIES, but if you're looking for the .tar file...
Some searching of this forum for the firmware revision name (I727RUXLF3) turned up this:
http://d-h.st/m9P
Samsung also has a firmware repository so you could download from them directly (Probably safer), you will need to make an account though:
http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=8&view=4967#
You will need to know how to use ODIN in order to flash this, do some research and reading about how to use ODIN, because you can mess up your phone if you click the wrong thing.
My understanding is that the official Rogers ROM will NOT work with an AT&T phone. You would need to use a custom ROM based on the latest AT&T leak (UCLF5), as they have not yet released an ICS rom to my understanding (Someone correct me if I am wrong...).
If that's not what you're asking then please try to clarify.
im pretty sure hes asking who has the rogers ics rom and if they do can they upload pictures (probly battery and stuff) and whether the rogers ics release can be used on the at&t skyrocket
Stock Rogers ICS rom available from sammobile.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
yes this my question
rogers ics release can be used on the at&t skyrocket
It is possible to use or that it is suitable only for 727R
I have the ATT
If the install of Rogers will not be a problem so ask
2. Is there 14 toggle for ics 4 from rogers?
Hi Eli,
I also have Rogers Stock ICS 4.0.4 from Sammobile and am looking for the 14 Toggle Mod in the notification bar.
So far, I cannot find anything and nobody has posted a reply. I tried to mod this ROM myself but I'm not experienced enough with ODEX ROMs.
Here is the thread I've posted:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1757197
I hope you get an answer to your questions.
ok but your phone this i727 att
my phone i727
the rom i727r worked with i727 att?
I have the Rogers i727r with stock ICS rooted.
If you have an ATT i727, I think the Rogers ICS will work but maybe not perfectly.
What is your reason to put the Rogers ICS on an i727 ATT phone? Wouldn't it be best to use the stock ATT ROM?
beacuse att not yet out ics
this very Annoying
and i want ics
ok thank you man

Blaze 4.0.4 rooting?

Hello, I am new to this forum and just got my blaze 3 weeks ago. I know the phone is kind of old but I like it. Any way when I get a new phone the first thing I do is root it and get rid of the bloatware, but after 3 weeks searching and following 2 tuts from other sources I managed to softbrick my phone. All is good there and I managed to un-brick the phone both times. My question here, is there any tuts out there that can help me root my phone? I will post the specs below and hopefully someone can direct me to the right info.
Any help is greatly appreciated and If I missed sonething I apologise as I am in the U.S Army and usually very busy. Thanks guys!
T-mobile Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4g
Current firmware: 4.0.4 (ICS I believe)-OTA updated accidently
The phone came pre-loaded with 4.0.3...I don't know why
Current baseband: T769UVMB1

First, you should never look at "other sources". XDA is the best and you should have started here
Second, wrong thread. Questions belong in the General section.
Third, if you look there is a [GUIDE][ICS]How to root stock just a few posts down.
Lastly, this phone has never been on 4.0.3 lol. There was a recent baseband update to UVMB1 but it is still 4.0.4 just as UVLH5 was 4.0.4.
Hope that helps
