Skyrocket Jb Setup - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

All right, Newb on posting, not on the phone, flashed dozens of roms kernels etc, but with all of the development going on with the jb rom, i have to ask, i've read so many threads different combinations, links are down etc, personally, i want to know the absolute best setup you guys have found so far on the jb rom, and working links if possible, i know the venom kernel is pretty amazing i hear, just want some more options before i go from stock ics, new phone btw, old phone inspire 4g
Always Thanks To The Dev's For All Of The HARD WORK!

if i could delete it i would but it won't let me,

Locked. The reason I don't let "best x, y, z" threads is because in the very end its you not everyone else's choice. What I think is stable might not be what you think. It also ends up as a flame/troll war.

how many CM10 or jelly bean threads is there going to be

the dev section has turned in to a nightmare ... 4 threads on the Jelly bean ... i think they are all all the same thing lol
while i am grateful for the work the devs put into the roms, it does seem a bit unnecessary for multiple threads with what appears to be the same rom.
This needs to be in Q&A. LMAO.

although I agree since this is a question, it would almost be hypocritical because then there would be 3 JB question threads for the cappy
Its getting all too disorganized. And they still have too many bugs imo

Someone should close the two new JB thread and let the old one open. Because right now there are 3 same JB ports from the same original thread (By Derteufel).

So far the one that's being updated the quickest is the one by monfro so we should keep that one I guess and its more convenient because you don't have to flash the kernel for that one

for me wifi was working perfectly, i just moved back to remics 1.3.1, but try a reflash dont forget to data wipe and format system, and you have to flash everything in proper order, i was using sliceruks v4 port so for that you have to flash rom, kernel, addons, superuser, and then fix the permissions in recovery

I'm sure some sort of order will emerge from the chaos ... just give it time
Good news is, the two porter, sliceruk and monfro is now both working with one thread. The best team up so far, so well be updated to CM10 Alpha releases. :victory:
This problem only makes it harder for people who are looking for a good JB rom to find one. I really don't want to try them all, just give us the best one and stop posting the same thing over and over again.
as many as needs to be! info is appreciated. im just outside the noob phase and i can tell you the feedback is VERY helpful.

Newb needs help

I have one question I want to root my skyrocket and have the best custom rom flashed. Which rom would that be and where can I download it with instructions. I've been using android for a week and I really like it. I want my skyrocket. To be fat and smooth though. I heard custom roms can help. The stock ics is nice but not always smooth.
Best rom threads are not allowed I am reporting this thread. I suggest you read the noob threads then look in the dev section and read

I have to agree with the op. Threads not in development get overlooked quickly. They fall of the radar fast. I have a way to do this on stock TW without flashing files and going back to your back up, etc. But just like this guy, getting bashed for the wrong area, I'm apprehensive about posting my results. Is the fix app related? Development? General? Depends on who you talk to. Once I get a solid answer from a moderator, I will post my finds.
EDIT: I feel personally the fix should go in development. A lot of people are asking for this in all the ROMs.

The problem is if everyone posts there question in development then it still become like q & a and we won't be able to find actual development. I gave the op the answer. All you do is flash it in cwm and then it there will be a setting in the stock messaging app.

Some people may be stock rooted. May not have custom recovery. They may be happy with stock just want the nagging screen on to go away. That's all I'm doing is tweaking the stock ROM. Just FYI.

Well that's a nice tweak. I'm stock rooted myself (now) but I put a recovery on simply to do backups and ensure I don't get an ota. However many point was if they allows questions in the development thread then out will become bogged down like the other sections. Also, the op made a duplicate post in the correct section that was answered

Help choosing a rom?

Finally decided to try a custom rom, I'm tired of waiting for verizon to update the S3 to Premium Suite Upgrade.
Is there any roms out there that are stable and have the multi window function, I'm not looking for anything fancy just simple but that includes all the features that were left iut with the 4.1.2 update.
If youccould point me to the right direction I'd appreciate it
Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 2
please do some research and read. there are probably more than 5 of the roms that meet your criteria in the development section.
you need to try roms and read and see what meets your needs. there are guides and similar threads all over this forum.
there are some small features in some that arent available in others that will make people want certain roms.
put a little effort in, itll serve you well. its obvious youve put in 0% effort.
I was just hoping for some examples from users who have had experience.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 2
the threads of teh roms are filled with experiences, opinions and impressions. what more do you really want?
I mean, the titles of the roms and original posts have all the information youd really ever need.
we see these threads daily and they get closed. theres a wealth of info here. dig in.
5-7 posts down from this.....theres a 30 page thread dedicated to limiting posts like this.

OK I will suggest the 3 best ROMs IMO to you; Synergy, MOAR & Hyperdrive. They all have the multi window and are fast with many mods.

I wont respond with a jerk answer. Bro try synergy rom, hyperdrive rom, or beanstown rom. Im personally drawn to using any rom by deviant. Sons of android, deviant one, there's a couple. Not to mention the support in the threads are great. I recently tried synergy. Great rom, and great support aswell. Synergy is very very stable. Just make sure u read the o.p. prior to flashing anything. Don't forget to unlock your bootloader.

Thanks I appreciate it bro, I think ill give synergy a try but I'm kinda confused about rooting and unlocking the boot loader on my phone, which one do I do first to I root first or unlock the bootloader and do you know any method of doing both that are up to date and will work with 4.1.2?, I hate to bug but I'd appreciate it if you couod help me with this

No instead of you half assing your search and wanting to be spoon fed you could have easily found it.

Not hard at all now was it.
That is because your question is asked and answered hundreds of times a week. It gets very repetaive.
Doing a google search for "4.1.2 root sch-i535" will give you plenty of results. Dont limit yourself to xda, check youtube and other sites as well. I spent a month on and off reserching methods and reading user errors before I rooted, unlocked and flashed. That is excessive but I wanted to minimize and fix any errors thst might come my way.

[Q] Skyrocket roms?

I was wondering from user preference what is the best custom rom for the skyrocket? I have jellybean and love it but I want to overclock the processor just dont want a OS that's buggy and inconvenient for daily use.
I know there any probably many threads about this just wanted to start my own before I go rom happy
My skyrocket is rooted from ordin and I have twrp recovery.
I have never actually flashed a rom on a android just rooted several. I am getting the gs4 next week just want to have a little fun with my skyrocket in the meanwhile.
Thanks.
mod please move
didnt mean to post a question in this section, my bad.
No best rom threads are allowed! If you want to go flash happy before you get your S4 try them all out pick the one best for you.

Only you can decide what ROM is best for you. Do your research, read the threads (take the time and read the whole thread!) And make your own choice.

Dude really...
if you read my stickies you would have seen the those questions aren't allowed, its a forum/mod rule and will be eventually locked
my suggestion is to read the stickies before you start flashing away as its obvious you haven't
from the sticky "read this b4 posting", its a post above your post
28) Q. which rom is the "BEST" rom or any adjective thereof for a rom
A. do not ask as it will be locked by the mod, read about them in the dev forum and decide on your own

I started flashing more than one month ago and I started with the most popular (threads with a lot of posts) / recent ones.
Backuping and restoring is so easy with TWRP. So, keep your prefered ones as backups and make a choice!
If you to overclock, check the OP, it's always mentionned.
Good luck. And read
As mentioned, you really need to try them.
But I understand why you are asking as for the less technically competent user (i.e. me) its hard to easily flash and switch, and its hard to really gauge all the differences.
I do think its personal and depends on what you are looking for.
I can tell you for me I have tried a few and settled on Embryo. Its very stable for me, and with others I found myself having to do a level of troubleshooting and diagnosis that, while easy for others, was hard for me. And so that wasnt a good tradeoff for me. I wanted something stable and easy to tweak and use, even if its at the expense of slightly slower performance, etc. But thats a very personal decision, and everyones results vary depending on their phone, apps, usage, etc.
Thats why people are so reluctant to answer these questions - they arent trying to be difficult!
Good explanation. People aren't trying to be difficult, just tired of answering this question.
