Rooted Phone and New Update Push ICS - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

Hi All,
I am a Newb, but have basic knowledge. So I rooted my phone but left the standard OS on the phone. It's Rogers Galaxy S2 LTE (Skyrocket) version. So now there's a new OS update. So on the phone I downloaded the update and the phone reboots to CWMR once rebooted. I don't know what to select in that menu? Anyhow have any ideas. The update does not install.
thanks

You need to be stock to receive updates. You need stock recovery

What version of ICS are you running? To take the update you need the stock recovery of the version of ICS you are running. Or you can flash the new jb official rogers rom that is listed in the dev thread via cwmr. Check out mohans thread

You can't update with a modified recovery. I'd highly recommend checking out a ROM from one of our devs instead instead of just going through stock updates, you already have the recovery and root in.
And don't worry about the guy above

I'd say this is the safest thing. A rom made by the manufacturer who, logically, should know better about their own device than a community of voulenteer developers. It's rooted, official and has everything you need and more.
It's the same rom you got via OTA/Kies but repacked for CWM. :victory:

Does anyone know where I can download the new Samsung Rom for Rogers? I would like to install it. I currently have 4.0.4 installed.
Unless someone recommends to install the CM10 instead...I just don't want to have to keep installing new ROMS. I want something stable.
PS: Thanks for everyone's help!

Umm... that's probably because it's meant for froyo bro. If you can still boot into the rom that you were in, add the su fix in the Doctorz rom and then flash it. If not, odin to stock, root FROYO, 3e, gtg community kernel. You know the deal.
This phone is a headache....my skyrocket is so much less frustrating!!!

If you had really researched it you would have read that SOC won't root the kk3 leak.
The GB roms that you see have been modded or ported.
To root the kk3 leak all you have to do is flash entropy's kernel dated 11/02/11.

Yeah, that was what I was gonna suggest.
I wasn't sure if the OP wanted to stay on stock or go from there to another custom ROM.
I must say..you guys around here are brutal..forgive me if my language on the matter is sub-par...i do understand the concept though...i have flashed back to stock and thanks to super thread been working from there with success....There are a ton of threads regarding this device..I treated it mostly like it was similar to a skyrocket..

I'm sorry, but I'm a total noob with Samsung. I rooted to a particular ROM, but ran into some issues and had to unbrick the phone. Upon doing so, I selected the kk3 leak and then lost root. I used SOC 2.3.3 to try to reroot, but I got stuck at step 7. So I want to try flashing Entropy's kernel as you mentioned. I'm not sure how to do this though. The kernel is in a CWM .zip format, but Odin reads .tar files. Do I unzip the .zip file and then convert to a .tar file? This didn't seem to work when I initially tried it, but perhaps I did something wrong. Any special settings I need to use? Also, do I just need to reboot after I flash it and I will have root? If not, what else must I do?
Sorry again for my lack of understanding. I've been trying to find an answer for hours and have become a little desperate. Thanks in advance for any and all help.

lol. Well another member said "To root the kk3 leak all you have to do is flash entropy's kernel dated 11/02/11." I thought that meant it could be rooted. Sorry for the misunderstanding.

[Q] What ROM do you guys have?

Since there are 4 or 5 ROM's for our phones... what ROM are you guys running? Stock? Curious
There are that many? Lol I am on a rooted stock, but play with Erik's customized ROM.

Im on Stock too. :silly:
Running stock and unrooted until T-mo/Samsung release ICS for this phone.
I rooted my previous phone (Exhibit 4G) and got rid of the T-mo bloat, can't wait to do the same for this phone. Only reason I haven't rooted is I worry something may interfere with the OTA update whenever it's released.

HA! Me too! On both counts! Got rid of the exhibit and got the blaze instead. Never got voicemails on that undeveloped thing. It's too bad as besides the voicemail issue I had it was a solid phone.
You should be able to get an OTA update even rooted with CWM (it is still the stock rom after all) - but you may end up needing to download the zip and do it yourself. It shouldn't be too hard to find the zip here on XDA for the stock release once it's out. I actually prefer doing it that way- it's faster -as with other devices I've owned the OTA update wouldn't go through until 3-4 days after its release (sensation 4g, streak 7). I have rooted and got CWM on my phone and removed the bloat and LOVE IT.
Coming from a 1st gen Exhibit 4G makes me thankful that so many great devs are actively developing for our Blaze. Thank you!
I still come to wonder.. What happened to the guy who was building a ROM before the blaze even released.?

[Q] can anyone possibly help me out finding a AOKP MMS.apk?

im looking to update my MMS.apk in my current AOKP rom (its like the sept 2nd version released by rains right now) im looking for a more updated version with the pop-up notification function included, my phone is running so well i dont feel a complete update necessary but i would like this pop-up function quite badly, which i assume is achievable by backing up my current mms.apk and pasting/installing the more updated version in my system/apps folder followed by wiping caches and fixing permissions. if anyone has this .apk at ready disposal could you get me a link to it?
thanks in advance

There's always a benefit of root my friend. First and for most is removing bloarware (AT&T preinstalled apps that take up memory and space in background) So many other reasons why root is best. How I describe it to people is like this. Taking a Governor off a car is similar to rooting an android phone. Technically there is only one ROM made from OTA ICS right now here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1960679 but there are others in the development section built of previous ICS "Leaks" we obtained. Such as SCV7, Swifty Trix, CM10, MIUI and a stock based off OTA as well. Hope this helped explain a little. Enjoy the power of the Dark side! :thumbup:

Umm, cm10 is a true opensource rom and not based on any leak/OTA, it is compiled from scratch. The only files taken from ICS are a few libraries and kernel modules and the like, and those have no bearing on version of ICS they were taken from.

Yes, your right Jim. CM is device-wide... forgot to mention that. Shouldn't mater what version of ICS your on. As far as other ROMs go for on this device, as far as ICS goes, like I stated, one (two including stock/rooted) is only based off the official OTA ICS build.

I am probably not an ideal tester, due to lack of technical knowledge regarding Android, but should you need a tester of the moderate abilities, and knowledge I would be more than willing to be of help if I actually was help. I currently am running the build of CM10 that is currently available, and am impressed with it, but look forward to your build with much anticipation. I can only take off my hat, as it were, to you, and all of the developers in this arena.

No, and no. No on 2nd system because it still uses the same underlying stock ICS kernel.
If you took the OTA, then you are stuck on ICS. This has been the case with major android releases and not being able to go backward for a very long time.

Sorry, that question can't be answered. One thing I've learned from my time here is that all phones are NOT the same, what works on my S3 may or may not work on yours.
You'll have to make your own tests, get started flashing various ROMs and good luck!

You have to understand that all of those ROMs have some problems since they are fairly new. All are still in the early stages of development.

I dont know if you are new or not so please dont think I mean to preach. But, when I am deciding what rom to use I read pages upon pages of the thread for that rom. I believe this is important so not only can I see what rom works like I want but, also prepares me for what to expect after flashing. Simply taking someones advice on which rom to flash will not always end with the best result.
That being said I am loving masta's cm10.1 unofficial.

I couldn't agree more.
Asking people for advice is probably bad because many stick with the first one they find work well.
Or they use what someone else says works best.
Roms work differently on everyone's phone so you must try for yourself.
Also people become very bias when they find a ROM they like.
Haha so it may not be the best for your needs.
Good luck and get flashing
