Please post here, going to flash it with odin to test if it works. I will properly be the only one with balls.
You'll probably be the first one with a hard bricked phone on its way to Samsung for a motherboard exchange.
Lol ^
I wouldnt do that. Google devices usually have very different bootloaders. Maybe the device has a different partition layout etc.
You'll have a bricked device for sure. Let the devs look into it first
I also going to do it, idc maybe we have to flash I9505G .pit file =]:laugh:
Without all that Samsung boat the system partition will be smaller for sure

psshh maybe i wait for OP to flash first :laugh:
meeh depending on how much different the devices are it can work,
i've flashed sprint version on SGS II international and it worked so if the hardware of I9505G isn't to big it should work
If hardware is the same I see no risks. Maybe iam the only one with balls and no brains?
I will only flash it if I can receive OTA updates for it... Otherwise I'll stick with stock TW

You make me happy, I hope we can see soon a release of the firmware ore a system dump.
Modem will probably not be compatible. The Google Edition is being sold by US carriers, they use different frequencies for 4G.
The ROM will probably boot but you might not get 4G or worse: no signal at all.

Hello. I just bought an S II LTE on Docomo. Am I right in assuming (I decided this in a fever dream of tiredness last night, so I don't know where I saw it) that ROMs designed for this ATT version of the phone will also work on the Docomo one? I know the buttons are different, but perhaps the ROMs take that into account?
If I'm in the wrong place, does anyone know which ROMs I should be using? There doesn't seem to be much talk at all of my version. Quite worrying; don't want to stay on GB!

Have no idea what Docomo is. but compare the specs, if frequencies and such are same then u can flash. isn;t the phone called 727?
U would probably need a SIM unlock.

Do you doco users have your own kernels I bet
Sent from my SGH-I727 using Tapatalk 2
It's called the SC-03D, it's mostly the same as the Skyrocket. Docomo is the network,
Since I posted this, I tried flashing a Skyrocket ROM on to it. Since the radio frequencies are different, I couldn't use mobile internet. (calls and wifi worked fine) - and because the buttons are different (the Japanese version has a physical home button, and touch buttons for "options" (whatever it's called) and back - whenever I pressed back, it acted as if I were pressing home.
I assume (as someone who knows nothing about these things) that the button thing would relatively easy to fix in a slightly modded ROM. They're the same buttons as the first Galaxy.
Now, the real question: How easy would it be for a modder to set the frequencies? Is it just a question of changing a text file? So then: Can I help? Is there any diagnostic app I could run on my phone to get the info required in order to make this ROM happen? I'm hoping someone could slightly modify the most recent AOKP and re-pack it as a Docomo variant, with not too much time or effort on their part. If there's anything I could do (as someone who lives in Japan and has this variant of the phone), then obviously I would help as much as possible.
Does this sound to anyone like something that could actually happen?

Sorry for the double-post, but does anyone know how to do this? How do I install a kernel and radio separate from installing a ROM? Through Odin, I'm assuming.

The Skyrocket is the closest phone to mine that actually has a section on XDA. Mine is a Galaxy S2 LTE (only with different radio frequencies and different buttons on the front; everything else is the same - Skyrocket ROMs work on my phone, apart from the bits I've already mentioned), not a standard Galaxy S2.

I mentioned in an earlier post that I flashed a ROM: It's safe to assume that I know how to flash a zip file in CWM. And I wasn't rude in my response, so what's the issue?
Do you think I haven't searched for the files myself? Why do you think I'm here? I'm asking here in case people more knowledgeable than myself have come across the same or similar situations, since this phone is the most similar to mine. To be told to "google it" is hardly useful, is it? That was obviously the first thing I tried.

That's why I asked if there's a way to extract the radio and kernel from my current stock ROM.
If you can get the partitions description table for you device you can make an img for both radio and boot...
But that's not guaranteed to work however...
Number 2 if you delete radio and boot images from a stock skyrocket ROM zip you will only be flashing the system...just delete modem.img , amss.img and boot.img (never forget also to delete the recovery.img) ... This way the zip flash can't find the radio and kernel to flash them with the ROM..But I can't guarantee you'll not end up with a brick or if you're lucky with a boot loop !

You can only flash ROMS made for YOUR SPECIFIC MODEL. Just because it's a Galaxy S3 ROM doesn't mean it's okay on your phone. You need one for your specific version. I don't know what Criskelo is, but I have never head of it.
A quick search pulled up this:
Criskelo ROM for Rooted Galaxy S3 i9300!
If you want to know which ROM I am running on my Galaxy S3 GT-i9300 right now, it’s this Criskelo ROM. (PLEASE DO NOT FLASH THIS ROM ON U.S. or Canadian Galaxy S3s! PLEASE!)
If you did indeed flash an international ROM on your phone, it's probably a paper weight at this point. Go to mobiletechvideos and spend $60 to get it jtagged. Do some research before flashing next time.

I'm pretty sure most international roms make a dometic S3 completely unbootable. I don't think you can even boot into ODIN to flash anything. Looks like you've tried. I don't think a PIT file will help, especially if you can't make it into ODIN to flash.

So I bought a JIG whatever that is... do you think that I should wait for it to get here It seemed like in a video i watched it pulled up download mode immediately I'd hate to drop 60 bucks just to find out my 5 dollar fix would have worked.
Kylewiddz, that 32Gb PIT file previously mentioned was mine. Hate to break it to you, but it sounds like you'll need a JTAG to bring you back. If you wanna try the jig, sure, give it a shot. Even if it doesn't work, with this particular bork, they do work and they're nice to have around. Either way, Josh at the aforementioned MobileTechVideos.com is the bomb. $60 is better than buying a new phone (or committing fraud by taking it back for warranty). Good luck, buddy (make sure you learn something from this ).

EDIT2: Confirmed legit. THANK YOU BUDDY
guys you really got to stop this fascination about every new release that comes out, they probably all have the same Changelog which means they are the same , so whats really the point of flashing them if they are doing nothing different to your phone. LOL I used to be like this untill I realised whats the point, If I change something in my rom which requires me to reflash this is the only time I will change as I am already reflashing anyway. But I wouldnt bother reflashing a whole new firmware thats exactly the same for no reason. its pointless
Oh its just I9305XXALJ9 and not I9305XXLJ9 what you told in other post
So nothing is new
P.S. TS You can change the build number by your self and make a I9305XXLJ9 and try to troll some people
Come on people stop knocking others. Someone earlier said they wouldn't bother with XXALJ7, now they are on it.

Kind of agree here but J4 did have a broken data icon and possibly H+ connection issues which was fixed in J7 afaik.
Also, most people do not know what the differences are in the releases until someone downloads and checks!

I take it you blind too because those are for the USA version of the device which is running an S4 chip and isn't compatible with the international version of the phone running an S3 chip.
All new HOS's are running S4 afaik. My brand new EU HOS is S4.
There are som other versions in asia, like the SU and SE, but other than that theyre all S4.
What I mean to say is - S4 isnt an "USA version".

Could always root and then remove all the crap you don't want and replace it an AOSP version of it.

Well not the skin parts like menus but you can remove pretty much everything of sense but make sure you have apps to replace them installed first.

I see. Never mind, my main concern is to remove the UI.
I am thinking about paying the 150 bucks to do the root for the US snapdragon note 20 but is the development there for it? Like would i be able to do the same things as the Exynos version? Would there be any point to doing it for the US version?

Thanks, yeah I read it and thats how I found out about it but it didn't say whether we'd be able to flash the rooms for the exynos versions and what not which is why I wasn't sure whether or not the development would be there for the US version yet until a free version came out
You can only flash roms for your device. If you have a U you can only flash U/U1 roms.

Awesome! Thanks for your help guys! I think I'm gonna go ahead and go through with it
I am going to guess that there is going to be very little development for custom roms now or anytime in the future. Things have changed a lot in the last few years and devlopment for custom roms has really fallen by the wayside (there has been some custom rom development, just not very much) (I am not complaining really - just stating a fact.) if you are considering doing this Root thing - I hope for your sake that it will be worth the cost - considering the low amount of development you can expect. Look at the minimal amount of development has happened for Exynos Note 20's - and that rooting option is totally free.

You are not stating a fact, you are stating your opinion and literally worded it as a guess. The custom ROM community depends on the device. Models like OnePlus will always have more development because of their nature, while Samsung and others will have less; however, the little that is available for the Ultra right now is not because custom ROMs are dead lol it's because the phone has been out for like a month. It takes time to do these things.

I downloaded team viewer, and PIA (A vpn) and another program that basically showed the step that the guy was on, they remoted into my computer and put me on the VPN for HK and then idek what they did to get my phone to unlock because they didn't do anything on my screen but my phone was in download mode and then it restarted they told me I was good then I flashed twrp and stock firmware and installed magisk

My guess on the reason for the VPN is because they have an app possibly that can unlock the bootloader but it needs to see that the phone is in HK in order to work otherwise there'd be no reason for the VPN..
your rooted a note 20 ultra thats US version?? WhAT da... HOW!!!!!!????????
