Unable to root or upgrade to official ICS i727R

So I just got myself a GS3 and i am prepping my Skyrocket for sale. I was on CM9 and i did a factory reset/delete USB from the phone's settings. Then when i rebooted i was stuck on the CM9 boot logo for ever and ever. So i used this method to restore to stock: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1342348 and everything went A1, my phone is back to orignal factory state as is just like the day i bought it. Then i plug into kies to upgrade to official ICS and it tells me my firmware is not compatible for the update. Bummer, so in reinstall all samsung software, kies and drivers and still the same issue. So i though it would be great just to root the phone and update it to CM9 but when i try to root this is what i get using 1click:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
So now i dont know what to do, i cant upgrade the official way nor the unofficial way and my sales ad states it come with ICS and 2 buyers already backout because it was on gingerbread.
Anybody know WTF is this??

Just from personal experience dont use the oneclick method try the odin root method , seems to have less problems and it works flawlessly for me.

read this to return to true stock http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1652398 u can use odin to flash stock rogers ics, u dont need kies to do it

thanks, will try that

The return to stock thread is really confusing... I have a rogers skyrocket unlocked using on fido, I wanna upgrade to ICS but the single click odin failed Im assuming its because that one is for the ATT skyrocket...how can i upgrade to ICS on my rogers skyrocket? I'm rooted...

Go to sammobile and download the Rogers (I727R) ics tar. Make sure you do a factory before you put your phone in download mode.
You can do it after but you may get some fc on first boot after flashing

Why would you post this here, go to Q&A or take a second to look around because you probably aren't the first person to have this problem...

Your phone is most likely fine, you just don't have the patience to fix it yourself.

This. Also verizon is probably not gonna be to happy when they see the phone and you ROMed it.
By the way op you may want to switch to Firefox or a browser with spell check. that OP was hard to read.

Rooting problem.

Hello guys.
I have the model: GT-N8010... Wi fi only.
And i followed this tutorial to root my device: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1239185
Everything works just fine, just till the end of the tutorial, i ran into a problem.
When i have to hold the volume key and power button, i get a different screen than the one that is displayed in the tutorial video.
Here is a picture:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
So the problem is, i cant go to the left icon showed in the video. Because my screen is displaying something different.
What can i do?

Its says vol up continue .
That is how download mode should be .

Download mode works.
But i need the install thingy.
look here on YT: /watch?feature=player_embedded&v=0eAQzxwEVjY#!
Skip to 6:12
you can see he goes to the left icon.
I need to install Samsung_Galaxy_Tab_10.1_root

I got Android version 4.0.4
Pretty sure the problem that i am having is because of a newer version.
So can i complete the method? Or would i have to look for a different tutorial?

So why are you using a tutorial for the Samsung Galaxy TAB 10.1 when you have the Samsung Galaxy NOTE 10.1?
There will be some differences when you are using a tutorial for a different device...
Hope you double check which rom you are going to install, if you are going to, as you will come up against a brick wall if you try to flash a firmware for a different device...

Oh my, i feel so stupid.
My note is still okay.
thanks

[Urgent] Stuck At Galaxy S and cant flash anything

Hello everyone..
I was messing around with the galaxy s I have and I accidentally flashed TWRP recovery that is for I9070 .. so now ik stuck on this :
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

}
And I can't put it on download mode or any other modes..
So I connected it to the computer and my computer is able to detect it .. same for Odin..
But when I try flashing the firmware .. its stuck on SetupConnection
I tried different odins and drivers.. and no kies and those things are not installed..
Any help please!!

It should go to download mode.
Try taking out the battery and wait for a min.
Then try replacing it and try the download mode combo.
Be sure to press the buttons with sufficient pressure as our home button is a faulty one.
Otherwise you may search the forum for how to recover.
You may use USB JiG method by borrowing it from someone near your place.

your phone is detected by odin and odin itself is stucked at setup connection beacuse that is not a download mode.. you should get in download mode.... try the hard reset method to get in download mode http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1411768

That actually did the trick.. replacing the battery a couple of times..
I had to take it to Samsung before.. they said 200$ for it and I knew there is really no big thing happened..so I took it back and kept on trying.. so yea now its working.. thanks

Can't restore nexus 5. Soft brick please help

Hello. I just wanted to restore my nexus 5 and i used NRT for it. I pressed restore and after that it startet booting. Now the phone turned on and it wrote: optimalizing (starting apps) 2 of 2. After that it restarted again. I know i was stuck in bootlomp. My pc is not working properly and 90% of images i downloaded were corrupted. In flashing in hashcheck it wrote missmatch. There is photo that i dont know if it is ok but i will post it anyway.

Now i want you guys ask you. i have here a friends notebook but there is not installed the nexus 5 driver and in NRT it doesnt recognize my phone even in bootloader mode so i cant restore it. What can i do here? Can i do something with the drivers to be my phone conected with NRT? Or do you guys have any other better fix for it? Thanks a lot for tour replies!

There is a guide to how install the drivers in NRT. Idk where exactly. Just have look. As I remember it right it should work without have your N5 connected.

i tried it, but it didn´t work for me. NRT were not able to find my phone. Is there any other plan to fix this by any other app or something else?

Don't use a tool kit. Just flash the factory image using fastboot. See the general forum for the sticky on how to flash a factory image.
