Just use the root option in openrecovery. It never fails
This is actually a question for my friend so sorry if I sound dumb lol, but how do I go about getting openrecovery and installing it

I've gone to the link provided in the txt message sent my AT&T and downloaded Kies, but it keeps asking for it to update...I uninstalled and reinstalled and no luck. Anyone have the correct ICS Kies exe they can post?
Thanks in advance, and yes I also have a Galaxy Note and successfully updated that but having trouble with Skyrocket.

I could've sworn I stated it keeps asking to update...Maybe I wasn't clear, I've updated it 10 times but nothing. I've uninstalled 3 times and reinstalled and nothing. I know Samsung is experiencing issues with their servers, initially that's the same issue alot of us Note users had. Someone was able to post the correct version of Kies (exe file), but can't seem to be happening for the skyrocket.
Edit the registry, remove kies entries, reboot, reinstall
See how that does

Unfortunately that is the correct file. I'd try a complete uninstall and reg sweep, reboot, reinstall. Seems something borked during the setup.

Ya many people had the same issues updating their Note's, someone though posted the exe file and it worked... just need to verify the correct version for the Skyrocket and i can update the Kiesversion.txt file to the correct one to see if it works.

If you are trying to get the update, there have been a few suggested ways to get it. Shake your head some more and take the help or keep searching.

First off if you and everyone else who posted and or replied would've read the OP, you would've seen what I was asking. FYI child I ain't no kid, one simple question was asked and idiots like you reply the wrong way. So first off if you want to be helpful I'd change the way you approach or reply to people's comments and do some reading. You do know how to read right? Not trying to be rude or be an asshole by saying so but many people on here think they big and bad, when in the "Real" world they nothing but scrubs. Again one simple question was asked, but people need to take the time to read before looking like jackasses and replying with something not even close to the original question asked.

Kies_2.3.2.12054_20_1 google search for that version, it will want to update so let it.
i though it was a problem so i uninstall'd my kies then installed this did the update and all is working as it should.
so i can confirm this ver works on a win 7 x64 if it still wants to update after updating it then there is something wrong with your computer,
give it a try.
Yeah yeah i was dumb and whatever, never update when you have root!!!! Warning to newbies!
I googled my problem like 20 times but couldnt quite find any solutions so im asking you guys what to do?
My CWM app says "This version of CWM manager should be used with CF-Root v5.0 or newer. it appears you are running a different kernel. Various features have been disabled."
So i lost superuser abilities after i did an update that was a 8mb file.
What to do? Root it again? or what?

For anyone having ROM Freezing after launcher install and maybe other freezing issues. Try the following:
Go to: ROMCustomizer>settings>LockScreen Options>Selected"" HorizontalLockscreen""
Seems this ticker box is a solution to several issues...
Do you think, Maybe Horizontal Lockscreen should be automatically checked marked in future updates, or at least it should be included in the post flash procedure for every one to see?

Sounds good to me but as the ROM is refined there may be no need to tick or untick a box in future updates. Mohan will take care of it I am sure.
For those with launcher issues On EMBRYO, please post your solutions and questions here. Here is a starter to troubleshoot, a procedure to install a launcher other than Touchwiz that eliminates freezing and having to reinstall the ROM after trying to switch to another launcher:

only thing that comes to mind is the radio, make sure you have the right one. i haven't seen anybody with apn problems on embryo6 that can't save manually. i checked mine and i can save diff apn, im on ucll3
Wow. Just wow. The whole problem was my file explorer. Xplore is what I was using, and even though it was given the right root permissions it apparently wouldn't do its job. Root Explorer did the trick.

Ok, there are a few options.
1. If you can't save the apn after you put all the info manually (name, apn, mmsc, mms, etc) that means you have a bad dl or flush, the rom should let you save.
2. If you can save the apn but after you save it you can't select it, that means you have the wrong info, when you have the wrong info it doesn't stick.
3. The last thing try uclk4.
I hope it helps, I've had the same issue with skyics, I was setting up the apn with the wrong info.

Why are you questioning the people trying to help you?
Look either give it a try or deal with a borked imei.
The reason they are suggesting that is because unless you tried to install a vibrant rom all of the non stock based roms back up your imei and when flashing back to stock it is restored.
Again why are you questioning people offering help?

You will have better luck trying the link I posted :/ It fixed my IMEI about 15 times and I am have sent the link to many others to fix their problems. The link you posted will do you no good for two reasons. First, it is a guide about how to backup your IMEI which you already lost. (can't backup what you don't have) Second, the guide is for the Samsung Galaxy S III. If you do have a SGSIII, then you are in the wrong fourm and my link will screw your device over. If you have a Samsung Galaxy S 4G, then it will flash you back to GB rooted w/ CWM. If you are still secptic about my advice, then don't take it. Hope you enjoy a phone with no service.
Why r u ppl so jumpy?
"Enjoy phone with no service"
"Why r u questioning ppl who are trying to help"
All i try to do is to fix my imei and on the way im trying to understand whats going on.
The link you gave me was for deleting trash from my phone to save battery life (i personally thought that, maybe, you just copy pasted the wrong link), my IQ is well above average, but i guess im missing a connection between batter life trash files on the phone and recovering IMEI.
please enlighten me.
Flashing stock did not help .. and i have always been using the original Tmobile roms... downlaoded from Sampro.pl
Never anything custom.
thank you for your help.

It was the correct link, and it works. What do you have to lose? Absolutely nothing. I will take all the blame if it doesn't work, but in my experience it does work. I have no idea why it works, it just does. I just want you to have a happy working phone. Sadly, I have not been on a "stock" ROM since I joined xda, so I have no idea how to fix your problem and keep you on stock. Out of curiosity, what Android version are you on now?

Well if your main point from that link is to go back to stock (you have mentioned to go part 3, which is just that) then it doesnt work..
Coz i flashed to froyo 2.2.1 and it did not help only thing that changed was that opposed to 00000000/05 i had 000000000/04 ...
I have also wiped the cache
Then i have flashed the GingerBread 2.3.6 kj6.
Nothing changes .. Tmobile doesnt accept phones with "0" IMEI.
im sure its possible to write it in .. just cant find it...
thanks.
Have you actually tried it yet? Anyways, I am sorry about your phone, and I haven't seen a way to write in your IMEI in all of my time on xda.
