Linux Users... - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

So I've searched the net far and beyond and have not found one single way to root this phone with a Linux OS. ODIN is completely useless with Linux and all help uses ODIN. I am far from being a noob as I have been rooting since the G1. If anyone has info that would be helpful to me please let me know.

What about heimdall? I think it's capable...

You need to have correct kernel install .. there is official att ics as of today http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1761610 (read) and kernel is here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1762308 Instruction and animation are here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1555422
If I install the custom kernal, would I have to redo the UCLF5 UOGRADE?

You can reinstall as many times as you want but there will be just one kernel.

Go to http://source.android.com/source/initializing.html you'll need ubuntu to build, but you can still keep windows by dual booting. Hell, you might even keep ubuntu cause it's very pretty. Well, anyway like I said, I was already building CM9, but didn't know how to target it out to the Blaze.

Create custom ROM for android with android

I'm wondering if it's possible to create a custom ROM using my nexus 7. Every guide i found around was either for windows or linux. Can anyone tell me if there is an app to do that or is it impossible and why?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Well, android is Linux...
U can do simple things like a few code line edits in build props and stuff. I have ported 6 ROMs from my phone with nothing more than a file explorer, so on a sorta simple level, definitely possible

Delete the rom zip file from your sd card for the one you don't want. Go to the development section for the new rom you want.

Okay for the sake of argument let's say your serious about this, let's call the first ROM X and the second one Y. If your running ROM X simply use something like ES File manager and delete ROM Y. If you want to run ROM Y then flash it and delete ROM X. Real simple oh and by the way read more just my two cents

Need help decompiling framework.jar

I'm trying to port a rom and in order to get it to boot I need to decompile framework.jar but I have no idea how to install apktool in order to do this, so how do you do it?
BTW I'm on Ubuntu 13.04, that's probably why it's difficult.
