Should I even consider Rom Manager? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

I have heard from sources that rom manager is a quick and easy way to get CWM and Roms onto my phone, but then I hear from other people that it will brick the skyrocket. Can someone put this into perspective for me?

This it's a question you could've answered yourself by spending five minutes with the search button. ROM Manager is good for fixing permissions and making paperweights on the Skyrocket, and that's about it.

It's a brick maker, don't use it.

ROM manager is worthless for this phone. Just fix permissions in recovery.

We aren't thrilled that we had to do this, but all the fighting and bashing in the last thread got wayyyy out of hand. This is a clean start, so lets treat everyone here with some respect

Even the lightest joke or crack against it will be reported, and also any other type of bickering. We will not tolerate it. ROM specific chatter only. Thank you and enjoy the ROM.

I don't have those problems. Try fixing permissions and reboot. Clear message cache. Or reflash and be sure to wipe the phone properly.

[Q] Should I try flashing the rom i ported from htc vivid?

Okay, so I was playing with dsixda's kitchen and I tried to port a rom from vivid to skyrocket (stock vivid rom). I tried it because I like how sense looks and the phones are kind of similar. I am not sure if I want to try to flash it. honestly I'm scared s**tless to flash it. I know what could happen. What do you guys think, should i flash it? how safe is it? any other tips? anyone wanna try it?
Okay, I get that I shouldn't do it, but why? (Sorry I'm a noob too this stuff)
I'm no dev, but I would say no lol

Miui themes not changing

Just last night I installed miui from on my sgs2 skyrocket. None of the themes are applying. I no that people have said to make the folder themes in data/system/ but I don't even have a system folder under data. So what should I do? Thanks in advance!

Im not trying to get hand fed... i researched this before i asked believe me
Try this one
su
mkdir /data/system/theme
chmod 777 /data/system/theme
cd /system/etc/init.d
I think that's what I had done for my gf phone to get themes working. I don't own a skyrocket myself.
That should create the proper theme folder needed and set the proper permissions for it to work.
Oh also the reason you do not see the folder system under data is due to the file explorer you are using either does not have root permissions or does not support viewing the files. ES File Explorer needs settings change to view root folders before you are able to see it. Well long story short just use those commands in a Terminal Emulator app and you should be good.

Carbon Rom

Was wondering if anyone knew if the earbud button press works? The play /pause track skip like stock? I would really appreciate it if any carbon user could confirm this for me
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda premium
How about you flash the rom and find out for yourself? Not trying to sound rude but theres no need for these kinda threads when you can simply flash it and find out.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda premium
Are you serious man. I go to the Q&A to ask a simple yes and no. I'm sure many are running it now and I still managed to find someone that gives me **** for asking.
I need this option for work and it makes far more sense to ask rather then flashing the rom to find out. Dude kick rocks

Thanks setco! I flashed it yesterday and my klipsch s4i buds button didn't work. I'm running CM10.1 because it works. Would love to have some Bluetooth buds but haven't found a set small enough to use here at work and get away without being seen by my boss. I appreciate you sharing that your Bluetooth is all good
